This weekend has been pretty perfect. Friday night my friends and I went to Tampa for dinner, and then everyone came back to my house and we watched The Room for the God-knows-how-many-th time. One of my friends was reading up on the script (lol seriously, this is the kind of stuff we do), and apparently Tommy Wiseau wrote the character of Denny to be autistic, which is why supposedly is the way he is. NOT THAT YOU WOULD KNOW because it is an amazingly horrible train wreck, but there you go. Also, one of my favorite lines, "I definitely have breast cancer," and the complete non-reaction to that news is apparently because Claudette is a pathological liar, and that's why it's never brought up again. Tommy Wiseau. Understated genius.

Then last night we went to a winery that we frequent that's pretty much right across the street from me. I absolutely love this place. I also had five not-small glasses of wine and was drunky mcgee. Someone we knew was doing open mic night there, and all his friends were there, so we went back to his place afterward with everyone. They were all pretty musically inclined, so we had a drunken jam session with a guitar, banjo, ukulele, harmonica, a saucepan and a spoon, and a musical saw. It was kind of amazing. I usually shy away from hanging out with a group of people that I don't know very well, but I'm glad I went. Also I requested Sufjan Stevens to the person playing the banjo, and he totally played John Wayne Gacy for me. I almost died.

My friend E who is coming with me to Germany is gonna be here in a few minutes so I can help her buy a plane ticket, yaaaay! Because I am anal and like making itineraries, I have so far made lists of things to do for these cities which I'll be visiting: Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, Cologne, Trier, Nuremberg, and Hannover. All I have left to itinerize is the few days I'll be in Amsterdam, and Groningen, and also any weekend side trips with

stargazertook that might happen. Eeeee oh God IT'S SO SOON.

Speaking of which, tomorrow is when I tell my boss about Europe. Lol we'll see how that goes. The meeting last week was exactly how I thought it would be, so if I do get let go, I'm not going to be heartbroken. I'm still having internal panic attacks about where to move (if I even do) after I get back from my trip. Maybe have it narrowed down to Portland, Oregon, or NYC? Frick I don't even knoooow. Meh, something to worry about another day.

Hahaha. The Room! I've heard a lot about it; I must see it someday.

I like making lists of things to do when I'm on holidays or out of town... then have another list of secondary things to do in case the first ones don't work out. :)

All the best with telling your boss. I'm sending you good vibes. Lots of them.

It is GLORIOUS. Be prepared to not understand anything.

Haha oh good, I'm glad I'm not the only one, then! I want to make the most of this trip, and making a list of things to do and see sounds like a pretty good way of doing that!

Thanks darling! <333

Woo! Yay for being drunky mcgee and jam sessions!

Also good luck with tomorrow!

Thank you bb! <3

Re: Europe - JEALOOOOOOUUUSSSS, and good luck with the boss. :)

:DDD Thanks bb! Ugh, I hate confrontations.

POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORTLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For some crazy reason I'm getting this vibe that you think I should move to Portland?

Don't worry about where/if you move...you can figure that out later :)
(I went snowboarding today...if you come to the west coast, we could totes go together ;)
<3

NO. SHE WON'T FIGURE IT OUT LATER. SHE WILL DECIDE TO MOVE TO PORTLAND RIGHT THIS VERY SECOND. OR I WILL SEND A FLYING LAWN MOWER AFTER HER.

IDK WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, FLYING LAWNMOWERS ARE GENTLE CREATURES

DDDDD:

Aaaahhh snowboarding! I've never done anything like that. VERY MUCH DO WANT.

Portland can accommodate this. Along with all other hopes and wildest dreams.

lol. livejournal needs a "like" button.

(Also omg CALL ME, WOMAN... when you can! ;D)

UGH, yeah, that's my main concern about Portland right now. In NYC I could more than likely find a job pretty easily, but looking at all the news articles on how bad the unemployment is... eeep.

...But having someone pump my gas for me would be REALLY REALLY COOL. :D
