6:22 p.m. How Do
Women Do It? Because I’m going to Mr. G’s wedding
tomorrow, and because his fiancé probably wouldn’t appreciate me showing in
my “waffle stompers” or my checkered Vans, I had to go buy myself some dressy
shoes. From Payless. Having never been a heel person, I bought
wedges. Except the toe part is maybe
an inch off the ground, and the heel is 2-3 inches off the ground. But it’s flat, it’s flat! I figured flat = less chance of falling
over. I hope. But man, even in these…well, I’m not
basking in comfort, let’s just put it that way. I’m not going to walk around I took George to Weisshaar (a
German music store that is very good with serious instruments, but very
expensive). George is going to be
getting a new bridge, the tip of my bow is getting replaced, rehaired, and
possibly getting my endpin fixed so that it can actually retract into my
cello. Woo hoo. Except did you know that a top of the line
bridge is $325?!!! I didn’t. Because I’ve never had to buy a new
bridge. So now I’m excited and also
thoroughly depressed. I am
cello-less….George-less until Wednesday evening. =…( Okay. Well I should go walk around in these
stupid shoes. There’s nothing more
attractive than sweats with shiny black dress shoes. |

8:44 p.m. SO HUNGRY Have you been SO absolutely
hungry that you know that once you eat, you’re going to get a stomach
ache? Have you ever been so hungry
that instead of eating, you’re basically shoveling food into your mouth? That’s how I feel today. I just got home from Honor Orchestra
auditions (4 hours…30 cellos) and I haven’t eaten ALL day. I meant to get a snack, but during lunch
time I had some kids come in for help, so I stayed in to help them. And then I just rushed to I’m glad I had spaghetti
waiting for me in my refrigerator, anticipating this event. Spaghetti, some spinach salad, and a piece
of toast….that’s some good eats right there.
Of course I was so hungry I would’ve eaten nearly anything. And now I am eagerly awaiting
one of my new favorite shows: Heroes!!! I like Hiro Nakamura. He’s so darling. I want to feed him cookies. I very well may fall asleep before then
though. I’ve had a long lovely day. |

9:27 p.m. Growing Up
Is Hard To Do I’ve discovered the ultimate
sign that you have grown up. It is a sad
sad moment when you realize you can no longer hula hoop. Younger folk pick up a hula hoop and can
naturally do it without working hard at it.
And then you see adults attempt it, swaying about, only to have the
hoop fall immediately to the ground.
It’s very very sad. But,
without fail, it’s a perfect way to tell. In the meantime, I’m watching
American Idol. Oh my cheese. Some of these people…it’s not even funny,
it’s just sad. These sad sad people who
THINK they have talent. And to be
honest, if you are auditioning for American Idol…you BETTER be able to sing
better and more in tune than I can, otherwise I have absolutely no respect
for you. Well maybe not the in tune
thing. But…come on. You better have a better voice quality than
I do, otherwise…really. Did you see
the girl who sang like a lion?? WHAT
WAS THAT?! I’ve been watching for
about an hour and nobody has knocked me out.
I haven’t gone, “Wow, that was amazing” yet. I’m waiting. I’m waiting. But not that long, because I’m
really tired and want to go to bed. |

9:23 p.m. Once Upon A
December Anybody else watch Beauty and
the Geek? It might be a little…to old
for some of you. All I’ll say is…I
love geeks :D They make me happy. And I’m watching it idly as I write and
contemplate whether I’d like to play Spades or Backgammon. I finally slept! I slept long and deeply last night, going
through a myriad of crazy dreams. One
of those involved my deciding to move to This first week back has been
rough. I don’t know about you all, but
I am TIRED. I got so little sleep this
week that I was thoroughly looking forward to this weekend. I apologize if I was spacey J I’ve also been thinking about
winking, recently. Very few people can
pull off a wink without looking creepy or cheesy. Most likely, the person you wink at will
either look at you funny or laugh at you.
Just a strange notion, really. Demetri Martin CRACKS ME UP. He has a Comedy Central special right now,
and he just makes me laugh. He has
very clever humor, which I always appreciate.
I appreciate intelligence and wit, and Demetri…he’s a funny guy. |

8:13 p.m. Happy New
Year! I hope you are enjoying your
last few moments of vacation. I…am
putting my new CDs into iTunes so that it may find a home in my iPod. Some string quartets, some Harry Potter, some
Blue October. I like a variety, what
can I say. I’ve been spending a little
too much time at Barnes and Noble. I
think the music cashier recognizes me now.
Today is the 1 year anniversary
of having procured George =D We
celebrated by….practicing. I know, I
know. I don’t care. I bought him a set of new strings, which we
are now breaking in. That’s a nice
present… Otherwise, it’s business as
usual. I kind of wanted to see Happily
Never After…it looks cute. Tomorrow
begins the craziness that is the next 3 months. And my guess is that tomorrow I will be
working on maybe an hour of sleep, if my current insane sleeping habits
continue. But that’s okay. I’m just glad to be back in All right, well back to school
tomorrow. See y’all soon! |
