Wait, where's the pizza money?

sexy sushi hair

I left my hair long. My adorable hairstylist spent a half hour curling it for my date with Shane. Having long hair is weird and girly.

Sushi was awesome last night. Also, attn: Shane ate his first bite of sushi and he LIKED IT. I’m so excited because this means we may someday be able to go out for sushi together, which is good and cute. Anyway, I had a lot of mojitos and a purple martini and then on our way home, we stopped in on the second floor (my brother & his lady have taken it over, so now they have more house to live in) and we smoked a celebratory joint with them in their new kitchen. Needless to say, I was pretty blitzed. But I had a great night. I haven’t asked Shane yet, but part of my brain remembers sleeptalking. Shane— confirm/deny?

Tonight we’re going with Shane’s parents to see The Road. I don’t know what to think. Hopefully it’s not too depressing. Then we’re coming home for pajama snuggles and Christmas movies.

I’m making pizza pops, then I’m going to watch King of Queens and take a nap. I’m very happy.

who cares

Trying desperately to find a picture of a haircut I could live with… an hour before my appointment. I hate choosing.

Dear internet,

You are helpful. The zipper on my new jacket got stuck, like one of the teeth was out of line, and I asked the internet what to do and it recommended rubbing lipbalm on the zipper and it worked! Thanks internet.

I have a yoga class in 20 minutes, then a haircut, then I’m going shopping, then Shane is taking me out for fancy sushi and drinks.

Gotta say, my shoulder is awful sore today after that needle. Couldn’t sleep on that side last night! But that’s okay. I understand.

4:35

I had a shitty day. It’s been a while, so about halfway through I was really confused, like, what the fuck is this? Why do I feel so grumpy? Oh, it’s because I’m having a shitty day. Okay, right.

Anyway, I’m going to a matinee with my pops, so that shit better cheer me up. If a movie on a Tuesday afternoon doesn’t lift my spirits, nothing will.

P.S. Today we learned how to massage babies. It was cute/weird.

Weekend highlights:

• HAVING CHARLIE AT SHANE’S FOR THE WEEKEND. It went really well, save for him trying to eat Tino a few times. He relaxed and fit right in. It was so fun to have him there.
• Hot yoga on Saturday evening, mmm.
• Thrifting with Rob, scoring a sweet new vintage overnight bag.
• Making dinner with Shane and my brother & his lady.
• Shane’s oldest friend coming over for a visit.
• Wake and bake, and pancakes & jazz for breakfast on Sunday morning, mmm, pancakes.
• Listening to an old mix CD from Shane’s teen years and Ice Cube’s “You Can Do It (Put Your Back Into It)” being on there, in a serious way.

Ew, Monday

Slept in until noon today, what the fuck? Taking the bus downtown at 3 for my night class. I hope this week feels easy & breezy; no big exams, nothing really going on until after the Christmas break. 9 days of classes left. Nine.

It snowed this weekend - yay! - except I don’t really feel ready to stop wearing flats. I have switched to sneakers because 1/2 an inch of snow doesn’t really warrant Sorels. The same with jackets; I have not broken out my new parka yet. It’s a very confusing time.

I miss Shane. This weekend we did a lot of hanging around with other people, but not just each other. This will continue for weeks & weeks, I imagine. I love Christmas, but I hope this one doesn’t feel too, too busy. Maybe it won’t.

Okay, let the countdown begin. I need to finish strong with school here. Ugh.

ATTN:

CHARLIE IS HERE! Oh my God, it’s amazing!
