Paul and I met up with some of my friends to see Crispin Glover present What is It? last night. The big slide show was great, and the movie was interesting to say the least. I'm not sure that it made a whole lot of sense after the Q&A or not.
The real fun, it turns out, is a few friends and I hanging out with Crispin's dad for half an hour on the sidewalk outside the Drafthouse. We shared stories- as well as shared theories on whether the Frost Tower looks more like a death ray or a giant pair of nose-hair trimmers.

And here is tattoo number two, located on my left ankle.
It was still a little early to touch up my cockatiel tattoo, but it shouldn't be much longer.

Overall, I'm feeling pretty well. However, for some reason, I feel a need to break it all down for the internet- even if only one or two people remember who the fuck I am after such a prolonged absence.
- First off, I'm just as happy with Paul as I was when we first started dating. We've been having a fair amount of disagreements, but so far it hasn't been anything we can't work through- and I think the open attitude we have about these things is good. Our 1 year anniversary is next month, and I need to figure out what to give him. I'd buy him a TV, but I don't have several hundreds of dollars laying aroud in the gift fund.
- Work is...work. Two of my best friends have up and moved to Portland, Oregon. Another is trying to get into nursing school. It feels like by the time the year is over, there will only be a small handful of the people I've started with left. I suppose it's not uncommon for the profession to have a high turnover It is stressful, has shitty hours, and most people never intend to make a career of it. I'd like to go back to school, but I haven't decided what path I'm going to take yet. Either way, I've got a while before that will happen.
- All the pets are still well. Mort does NOT have a liver shunt, and that ALT value is apparently way out of normal range but still normal? I'll trust the specialists on that. Vimes still acts like a retarded kitten, and Eli can jump 4 feet vertically. And do barrel rolls. I just need to get him to do it on command.
- Getting Tattoo number two today, as well as having number one touched up. I might post pictures later. I've settled on Pete as an artist completely now. And Ricky is my piercer I suppose (so far, I just have my eyebrow done. Thinking about microdermal implants. ). I form loyalties easily, but these guys are good at what they do.
- ACL was fucking awesome. It was hot, there was fire. I got ash on me, and I finally got to see the Decemberists live. Other highlights for me were Blonde Redhead, Patterson Hood, and the Cold War Kids. Muse lost a few points because I was pressed up against a sweaty shirtless teenager giving me a contact high. Except that I didn't really get a contact high. Paul, on the other hand, wanted to come home and eat a jar of trail mix.
- By the way, I AM still alive. If anybody was wondering.

Today I go pick up my dog! I've technically had dogs from when I was born until I moved out to Texas, but the last several years of that the dogs weren't part of the family so much as "those things out back that get fed every day." It's been years since I've had a dog as part of the family- and over the last few months I've realized how much I'd missed it.
So I'm going to go pick up Elijah from Town Lake Animal Center today. He is a year-old 15 pound dog of indeterminable origin. He looks like a shepherd/beagle/minpin/basenji/terrier. Or something. Anyways, he's sweet and cute.
PS- Please don't tell my family.

Alright, been too busy working (and playing) since Sunday to post this, but my friend code is 3179 2545 4021 . Character name Menolly.
So if anybody wants to whip my ass in a battle, just let me and my level 10 Bidoof know. Curse you Bidoof.

So apparently I took not one, but two lighters through two different airport security screenings and onto two different planes.
Oops?

Might anybody be able to give me a ride to/from IAH the evening of Friday the 22nd and/or Tuesday the 26th?
I could provide some compensation

I was bad...In celebration of my better-than perfect vision (WTF?) I went to both Whole Foods and Nippon Daido. Where I bought nothing useful. Fancy extra-dark chocolate, Pine nuts, coffee, azuki mochi ice cream...and Goth Pocky. It's not just black, it's black times five! Containing five of the blackest ingredients. KURO KURO KURO KURO KURO!
I also bought some tiny dead squiddy things. I don't know what to do with them...

I know things are going to be alright. I know I have the best friends ever, and that things will get fixed. Sitting here in my apartment when I would otherwise be heading off to work because my car won't start again... I'm still panicked. Obviously it wasn't just a dead battery last time. Nick believes that I need a new alternator. It's alright..I can borrow the money. And like I said, BEST FRIENDS EVER. It's still not preventing me from sitting here in a complete panic. I trust Nick, but what if that doesn't fix it? I live nowhere near work anymore. I could bus/walk, but the weather is really starting to suck again, and there is all this construction on Rogerdale...and how would I make it to Austin?
*cries*

Well I pulled some favors and now my car is starting and acting especially peppy. Luckily, my initial guess was right and it WAS just the battery.
YAY CAR!
