Addendum...
Dear November 29th,
You are the worst. You are cruel, merciless, and just plain mean. I think that I'll just skip you next year.
Oh, as an insult to injury... last year, when David died on November 29th, my mom made me go to class the Monday after it happened (funeral plans were delayed, etc. and not the point). The lecture was on MVAs and head injury - aka the way David died. This year, Elaine died on November 29th and I am again going to classes the Monday after (I missed last week, etc. and, again, not the point). Tomorrow, our lecture is on breast cancer - aka the way Elaine died. Why?
Blah, blah, blah... sorry for all the whining.

The Execution of All Things
It's a pretty nice little Sunday here in Pittsburgh. The sky is completely clear with perfect blue skies, not to mention that the temperature is prime for your favorite sweater and knit cap. One thing is missing, though... Miss you, Joe. Remember the time you told me that November 29th would always remind you of me because it's "our" day? I guess that the joke's on me... it's just not funny.
Anyway, I really think that I should move to Portland. I've considered Chicago and have
recently been asked to look into D.C. While I do love Chicago and think that D.C. is pretty cool, I am not very "metro-chic"... or whatever. I'm more like on of those people who scrape the dirt out from under their nails with the edge of a paperback book only to have it appear an hour later when all I've been doing was typing about fucking soy. It's okay, though; I embrace my inner dirtball. I've never been to Portland - or out west at all, for that matter - but as far as I can tell from Google image, it is calling my name.
I also accidentally started "following" myself on here. I'm not sure how I did that or how to remove it, but it's borderline embarrassing. Whatever... meow for now.

In my head, in my heart, in my soul...
Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of a beautiful person's death. My mental health (which is already not necessarily "healthy") will be questionable for the next few days. To David's family and friends, my heart goes out to you.
Soundtrack to my life right now: Cat Power - He Was a Friend of Mine.

Tomorrow is also the eight year anniversary of George Harrison's death. Rest in power, man.
I would make this cooler if I knew how.. but that will all come in due time. For now, I am researching the benefits of soy in an empty library with the world's largest iced coffee, Lucero on my iPod, and the company of Ms. Jenny Schaeffer. Don't tell, but we stuck it to the man today; I presented her with an illicit copy of Microsoft Word. Perhaps this isn't the best place to disclose that information.... Let the ramifications come as they may....
