Man, I should really just learn my lesson and stop trying to go to things that are free in New York City. It never works. I've lived three blocks from the Brooklyn Museum for seven months now, and I've felt so lame for never having gone to their free first Saturdays, where there's also events and performances and a party. This was the first free Saturday with the new Keith Haring exhibit that my roommate and I really want to see, so we finally decided to go. It goes until 11. We got there at 8:30, and even though there were streams of people exiting as we were waiting to get in, they decided to stop letting people in. We were so bummed. And I had gotten all fancy because I got my hair did today and had a blowout, and I didn't want to just sit at home and waste a blowout but here I am. Boo.
I hate when friends ask me for help on something, but then it turns out "help" means "do this for me." A friend asked me for some help studying for his Stats midterm. I told him I'd be happy to. We get on Skype and it turns out it is a take home test and he doesn't know a god damn thing so I basically have to do the whole thing for him. I started off trying to teach him how to answer the questions, but when that started taking too much time, I figured it would be easier to just do it myself then tell him what I did. What I thought was going to take an hour or so of my time took up 2 and a half hours yesterday before I finally told him I had to work on my own thing...but, of course, that means I have to "help him" through the rest of it tonight. So, chances are, that will eat up another 2-3 hours of this night. Alas.
At Great Wolf Lodge. Jesus, I've never so many kids in one place than this monstrosity. If R. Kelly walked in here his dick would vapourize. Spoiler too soon? Naw, fuck him. He made "trapped in the closet" so he deserves death.
IMPORTANT: My resource for watching movies online (<a class="postlink" href="http://www2.zmovie.tv/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www2.zmovie.tv/</a>) is now dead. When this happened to my last site, I asked for help finding a new one here and someone pointed me in that direction and it has been awesome ever since. I'm going to try it again. Does anyone have a site that still works?
Weird moment of the evening: PBS usually has good concerts. Tonight's episode of Great Performances is...Hugh Laurie playing the guitar, singing the blues with Dr. John in New Orleans. Holy randomness, Batman.
Well since Angel had other engagements that precluded hanging out with me I installed myself in a secret little bar and wound up chatting with the barmaid for a solid six hours. At the end she told me not to worry about the bill (which was 3 beers and a coffee). Wheee. And it was one of those good conversations, too.
Huh. Turns out my housemate picked up an absolute stunner last night. Fine work. She just appeared out of nowhere in my house as I was mid joint. Hard to say who was more disconcerted, really.
Just on that, the website i've been using to stream TV shows online (<a class="postlink" href="http://www.tv-links.eu" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">www.tv-links.eu</a>) isn't the greatest these days. Can anyone point me towards some others too? I had a good weekend, but feeling the affects from it now. The last few weeks have been actually very good. I've been hitting up some new bars in the city (sick of my friends always wanting to go to the same ordinary places because they don't know anything better) and I've also been able to make some new female friends in the meantime.
So We went out last night and really partied, pretty much for the first time since we've been married. We ended up meeting 2 couples, both anglo men married to a Swede and tjey don't live far from us, and we all hit it off, so we are meeting up abck home. Good times.
The party I was at last night had whipped cream vodka AND vodka whipped cream. Also, a cake shaped like Mr. Potato Head.
Easter bitches. I just ate a third (with full intentions to finish it today) of one of those giant hollow milk chocolate bunnies. Good lord those things are packed with sugar, I feel like a heroin junky taking a hit after withdrawal.
Happy Zombie Jesus day! Today is the day Jesus rose from the dead and gave a bunny super powers so the bunny could give us all eggs and candy! Now for a count: how many people who read my facebook get offended when I refer to it as Zombie Jesus day. I put the over/under at 6. I have a few of hyper-religious people on my FB.
My brother and sister in law are both very nice, genuine people, the kind of people you'd expect to belong to a little church and enjoy themselves in that setting. So you'd expect them to go to church on Easter, but you'd be wrong. They watched a televangelist on tv, pretty odd. As for me, my brother getting sick kinda caused me to become almost atheist. I now believe in shit luck over divine intervention. So to celebrate Easter I'll getting drunk on whiskey. Cheers.
Frankly, I'm appalled that everyone is celebrating Easter with their "families" and not on here. This has been the most boring day of the drunk thread in history.
I said the same thing...after staring at her ass for a full minute knowing I have seen perfection. WOW, just WOW. That whole panty, thigh high, heels thing will one day be the death of me.
