Head now = a little woozy. A little happy. A little light-headed.
Head three hours from now = hanging over a toilet bowl. Clearing toxins.
Head tomorrow morning = Nonexistant. Head? Where is head? Gah. Work.
Thank FSM J is leaving on Sunday to go to Europe for two years. Every time I go to his place I manage to kill another ten thousand brain cells.

It’s funny actually. There’s this guy that I went to high school with who I never see anymore. Yet, he’s still on my MSN, and every month or so, one of us will initiate a long conversation, usually lasting well over four hours, and in those four hours we manage to totally catch up on each other’s lives. Then there’s silence for the next month. And the cycle repeats itself.
I just find it astounding how comfortably we slot back into our roles. We talk about everything…and by everything, I mean everything. Every single dirty little detail. Without having set eyes on him in person in the past two years, he knows everything about me.
Without actually physically being there…you’ve always been there. Thanks Tom.
And in other news, although we don’t get CNN here in Australia, I’ve somehow managed to develop a crush on Anderson Cooper.

Yesterday was an exceedingly good shopping day.
- Everlast zip-up sweater for $20 (reduced from $100 because it was marked incorrectly and I argued with the sales assistant so they had to give it to me at the marked price).
- Tony Bianco sandals for $22.50 (reduced from $45 which was reduced from $89.95).
- Two pairs of tights for $25 (Lindsay Lohan style - one pair black, one pair grey marle - a two for one deal).
- Blockout black distressed straight-leg jeans for $40 (reduced from $89.95 at Bloch, the store for dancers and ballerinas…yeah, I don’t know what I was doing in there either).
And if you add to these purchases the pair of Endless Spirit pale pink pants I bought off eBay for $7.25 including postage…well, it was an incredibly productive day. Hurrah!
