It's getting good
May. 25th, 2010 01:56 pmThings are definitely becoming Good. I suppose they weren't necessarily bad, before... sometimes complicated, yes, but not out-and-out bad. And really, having angst over dumb things is basically one of my superpowers, so things tend to be overall better than I estimate.
ANYWAY. Dancing on Friday was equal parts hilarious and fantastic, aside from a stolen property scare. Fortunately, said property was all recovered an hour or two later, so we decided that called for a celebratory bite at the Roxy.
Saturday involved eating tasty, tasty crepes with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
katlyn, because Chez Machin and Groupon are both fantastic. And then we both endured a good 90 minutes or so on the highway to get up to herince_emyn and matrixleap's for a musical marathon. Yeah, bridge construction on I-205 plus god-knows-what on I-5 equals absurd amounts of stop-and-go traffic. :p BUT, it was fun and worth the drive. And dude, Angela Lansbury with Chibiusa hair? She kind of rocked it.
Sunday was a quick in-home portrait shoot, and a bit of running around doing errands and talking serious business, until it was time forvirgoqueen7's show at Someday Lounge. I hadn't been to a show there before, but I liked the space, so I'll have to keep an eye out for other events there in the future. And of COURSE her set was amazing! After they finished, we stayed through part of the following band, and then marykae, Andrew and I headed up to DoomCo for the LOST finale.
Keeping it un-spoilery, I will say that the LOST finale succeeded in not making me angry, so I was ultimately satisfied. As I was telling Jason (a.k.a. possibly THE most quotable person I've ever met), after quitting the show midway through Season 2, I was so detached from the characters that I didn't exactly care what happened, even after I started watching it again. I show up, and I laugh, and I occasionally hope that the annoying characters get tossed off a cliff. But story? They stopped having anything resembling a cohesive story ages ago. The ability to sit back and enjoy the ride has served me well.
In other news, I snagged all the necessary cables to hook up my XBOX to my computer monitor and speakers, so I camped out in my room for a good couple of hours last night and started in on Dragon Age. Can I just say? Having a few hours to just sit on my ass and play games was terrific. I may have to repeat the performance tonight, now that LOST is over and I won't be rushing off to the Bagdad after wushu. I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS.
That probably sounds silly if you don't play games, but... oh, wait, most/all of you play games, so it likely doesn't sound silly at all. This is why you are my people. <3
Anyhoo, it's Tuesday, and I'm only doing marginally well at getting more sleep, but Monday set a good pace on the rest of those goals mentioned on Friday. I feel pretty excellent.
