Ho hum. Monday morning again. I am off from work today, a stunning development in a life that is normally dominated by work. Too bad I have to spend at least some of it getting my car repaired as there are problems with the Southern Belle mobile, mostly to do with burned out lights. Oh well. I am off again on Friday--what will that day bring?
I had an interesting weekend to say the least. I joined the afforementioned John Kerry club, so I had a very informal "meeting" of that on Saturday at a local restaurant. It turned out very nice, and I can see myself doing a lot with this group. That night I went to my friend Kathleen's 21st birthday party. Very fun, if a bit quiet. I got to see one of my friends from work who has the reputation of being a regular loverboy in action, and another coworker wearing Johnny Depp-style eyeliner. My friend, the afforementioned Awesome Chick, got hopelessly and completely drunk, which was cute on her, as she is usually a pillar of purity and light. Being the cool person I am, I didn't drink much and stayed around to take her home, and then picked her back up for work on Sunday where she suffered from a totally wretched hangover. I think most people at work were amused by her demeanor both at the party and at work the next day.
I am somewhat nervous-like today, and I really don't know why except that my body is doing odd things lately, possibly due to the lack of a sensible diet and enough sleep. Oh, and the alcohol. I am thinking of giving that up, but I feel that I should do it in stages. I also feel a little lonely today, don't know why, just do. Maybe I am getting old. It is a distinct possibility, as lately, I have become more linked to the elderly (ha ha, Gramps!).
Well, I shall now go and see what I can get into. My apartment is messy, messy, messy so I am going to endeavor to clean it. It's going to be a hard job, but somebody has to do it, I guess. Then there is the car thing, which will require me driving to Newport News, which is not far but to me, seems like about five lightyears away. I would adore to go to the mall while I am there, but due to strenuous economic ties, I'll have to hold off this time. My dreams of becoming a fashionable, vain, and self-righteous woman will have to hold off at least until student loan money comes through and books are bought. Until then, I remain unfashionable, a little self-conscious, a bit too old for my age, but wholly and completely yours.
