yesterday, helena called & woke me up to ask (well, tell) me to come into work today, which i didn't really want to do but luckily tim took the shift and i not only go to sleep untill whenever i woke up (which was only 1015 or so, but still! no alarm!) and got our little network working (with dad's help) and took kate to the bus and ran errands blah blah blah. so productive! made dinner for the first time in weeks, sweet & sour chicken with rice, a salad, and we even had angel food cake with raspberries for dessert. i thought everyone was going to be home tonight, but it just ended up being me and kates. good dinner, though.
went to The Vagina Monologues with mariss. i was all ready to cry and be all wrecked, but it wasn't what i thought! it wasn't all about women being abused, no no, it was about women's empowerment .... through their vaginas. i laughed so much, and there were a couple of sad stories, but it was great! mo and i won a raffle (since we had the majority of the like 8 50 cent raffle tickets) and got shirts and pins although we hadn't really planned on it, because they didn't have change for my twenty, and really, it was for a good cause. So, we're all up on Vday.
took a nap (headache, grumpiness, shoulder and neck aches, apparently i'm a mess), felt better, went to hollywood with kate to do some returning and picked up final destination to fulfill any need for cheesy horror movies hat we might feel this weekend. then - we hit up the barfly. i was wearing fleece, forgot to leave my scarf in the car, had my bag .. kate was in a similar situation. we weren't expecting what the barfly was -- which was a weird mini club atmosphere with cheap beer and lots of the giant globes from pier 1 with crazy lights inside and a dj and fun music (different music in each room). who knew? you couldn't help but want to bust a move, but really, we were not in the appropriate gear or the appropriate mood.
looking forward to lunch with mum tomorrow ... and going out tomorrow night.
happy valentine's
xoxo.
