| November 29, 2004 I called in sick today. My alarm went off at 7, I shut it off and realized that not only did my throat hurt, but I couldn't breathe out of the left side of my head. Then my upstairs neighbor, Rob's alarm went off. It sounds a lot like mine. I actually heard it the other day for the first time. I don't hear a whole lot of other noise from him. It's a bit odd. But it does serve as extra validation that I do, indeed, need to drag my ass out of bed. I have a plan for today. It involves the chiropracter and some pain killers. Then some sleep. I suppose this means I'll have to go in on one of my days off this week, but at this point, I don't really care. I'm actually updating this to kill some time before the aforementioned chiropracter's office opens. I really just want to cry. The weather definitely matches my mood. I hate being sick. There's just nothing good about the experience. So, I rented the third Harry Potter movie, though I know I'll get it for Christmas. Thanks, Mom! It really irritates me when they do things like hide the deleted scenes. I saw the movie twice in the theatre. I didn't actually NEED to view it again on dvd. I just wanted to see the deleted scenes. And I couldn't find the fuckers. I'm going to have to do some web research. Some of us don't want to have to fuck around with the dvd's we buy. Some of us have better things to do than to search for easter eggs. <bitter> I also rented an movie called The Reckoning. I enjoyed it. It got a bit heavy-handed at the end, but it had a great cast and great cinematography. It was a good way to kill a few hours. Random Thoughts: When did nipples become an accessory? I remember friends of mine in high school and college who would go to great lengths to hide the fact they had nipples at all. Now, they are everywhere. I blame Friends. Knee high boots are infinitely trashier when they zip up the back instead of up the inside of the leg. Lesson for the weekend: People aren't always who you think they are. In fact, they are rarely so. Sometimes, it's better to walk away from some of those people. "Give up all the other worlds except the one to which you belong. Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you." From "Sweet Darkness" by David Whyte |
