So I lost my keys at some point while running errands this afternoon. Rather than backtrack through the sleet and freezing rain, I got a spare set. Then I lost power, and decided to go spend quality time at Adrienne's. 90 minutes later, she lost power. I came back to my apartment to find out that my power was back. I have a final at 8:30 AM tomorrow, which I can choose to postpone til Saturday if I choose.
THE END |

I'm also back in Cville for my 2nd year of law school. Interviews started today, and last through next Tuesday. I'm hoping they go well, but we'll see...if they don't, I can always fall back on something more interesting that pays less, i.e. international or NGO work. I also have a "surprise" party planned by Sarah and Adrienne on Friday...everyone should come, even if I have no idea what we're doing. |

Let's all mourn my anonymous "friend" who decided that I was not Facebook-worthy. Yesterday I had 53 friends, but now I only have 52.
May he/she rest in piece.
the asshole.
Oh yeah, and does anybody else find it odd when, on a non-holiday with no inclement weather, you go somewhere mid-morning and see a lot of kids there? Two weeks ago, when some sectionmates of mine and I went to the Tavern (where students, townspeople and scary hillbillies meet), there were all these families with school-age children! Do these parents not send their children to school? Is that what home schooling is really about? "Now boys, girls, today we're going to learn about the Bible...and then go eat waffles and bacon!"
I also kicked Con Law's ass when I was cold-called today about Lochner v. New York. |

Oh, also...I'm considering getting a pair of glasses, because I've realized I think they look hot on others. Should I get a pair, and if so, what kind?
And yes, just in case you were really dense, I wear contacts. And no, they're not colored. |

This is theoretically the precursor to a longer entry that will come later tonight...but we all know how good I am at those.
Erasure is playing at the 9:30 Club in DC in May! Unfortunately the shows are on May 2nd and 3rd, and I have final exams on the 2nd and 4th, so I'm not sure if it'd be a good idea to go.
Going out to dinner soon with Serenity, her college friend Tyler, and Katie. South Street Brewery (and yes I'm going to have a beer, despite writing my argument section right now. I seem to recall writing shitty papers being easier with a slight buzz).
Then at 10:00...L Word, Season 2 premiere with the girls. And a fruit and cheese platter! Because that's what power lesbians eat. |

Good news in the past 24 hours: I finished my cover letter, my resume got a thumbs up from the public service dean, my Jurisprudence Sex & Gender class was cancelled tomorrow, I found out that I'm not the only one blocked-AIM guy has been ignoring recently (in fact, it's all of our mutual friends), and I almost managed to be a vegan health fiend yesterday (til I had a piece of American cheese on my sandwich).
Bad news in the past 24 hours: Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow (groundhog meat, anyone?), the door to my shower fell off as I got out of the shower this morning, my rental agency didn't fix it today like they planned.
Btw, how weird is it that my International Law professor reminds me of my ex? From the self-deprecating intellectual humor, the many references to cultural and historical phenomena that most of my peers don't get to inflection, it's like I'm being taught by Neil, circa 2030. It really throws me sometimes, but I'm slowly learning to be entertained by it. |

Ok I just made little happy gurgling noises because Enya came up on MusicMatch. What kind of a freak am I (rhetorical question, but answer as you wish).
It's pretty sad that I viewed today as a major success, despite having skipped a class. I mean, I did all my homework for tomorrow, wrote my cover letter for internship applications and ate healthily...and compared to the past few weeks, that's something to be proud of. I'm really hoping I can pull my life back together, one February at a time.
BTW, for those of you in DC, I'm coming up either this weekend or the next. Let's do something.
Oh yeah, and at a party last week my collar popped itself...I didn't help it up, either. And it looked damn hot, til ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) dream2k2 flipped out (ha ha ha) and tucked it down for me. |

I've removed a certain someone from my buddy list in the hopes that I will be less inclined to IM with nothing to say, and thus less sketch.
Oh yeah, and did anyone else know that there's a station on digital cable galled Nickelodeon GAS (Games and Sports) where they show nothing but old Nick shows from the 90's? silverthief2, nanolemur and I watched while in NC, and it was hilarious to see shows like Guts, and see what 13 year olds looked like when I was 13. Especially the one named Keri who we all thought was just a boy with a strange name, only to find out that she was the most mannish early teen ever. Poor girl. |

I'm going to hope that it's just Seasonal Affect Disorder (or whatever the A in SAD stands for), because my friends don't seem to be doing so hot right now. The other options really aren't that uplifting.
Trip to NC was fun...recap tomorrow? Not that I haven't used that line before...
I get to sleep in my own bed tonight...I love you bed! And computer! I don't love you, law school reading, law school building, law school parties, law school grades...
Yes, for the first time in my life, I've done below average academically on something more than a test. What an accomplishment.
Oh yes, and this picture of me, sociopath-style, was created by venaja, so voice all comments in her direction, too.

In other news, I went to my first Korean restaurant tonight, and loved the food.
Happy 2005, everybody...here's hoping 2005 is a banner year (meaning less surgery, death and law exams than 2004 and more exercise, partying and awesome late-night conversations with friends) |

I'm feeling exceedingly shallow right now...perhaps it's because I'm in Southern California. Today I went to Olvera Street (home of El Pueblo de Los Angeles), then we drove through West Hollywood and Beverly Hills to Santa Monica pier.
Seriously though, can someone e-slap me and tell me to be less stereotypically male (and make choices based on physical appearances)? |

I like the Washington Post article about a study on the effects of ecstacy on the terminally ill. I can just picture a bunch of cancer patients all rubbing each others' arms while dancing to muzak.
I'm also in Los Angeles right now. Last night I celebrated Christmas with my parents, two aunts and grandfather. We didn't exchange a lot of gifts, which was nice, esp. because mine were unwrapped (can't take wrapped packages on a plane, apparently). Crashed really early and slept in til 9.
I basically spent all day today at a family gathering, i.e. my grandfather's 90th. We arrived at 11:15 to set up, and left at 7:30 (it's 9 when I'm writing this, PST). I'm a little too worn out to go into details, as that'll be in a later posting, but aside from one or two people, my family is pretty cool. I even got to talk to my mom's lesbian cousin about what coming out to my extended family was like. I also met some second cousins of mine who were pretty interesting (and not in the interesting = bizarre sense).
So tired...but it's only 9 PM. I can't go to sleep at 9! |

Tomorrow morning I get to fly to Los Angeles. My grandfather turned 90 earlier this month, and his daughters wanted to throw him a party, but they decided to delay it until after finals, which I thought was super nice of them. So I'll be celebrating Xmas in 65 degree, sunny weather, and then the next day going to a huge Italian-American party with all sorts of relatives I either don't like, don't remember, or have never met (the exceptions being my two aunts, my grandfather and my parents). I'm sort of hoping that my mom's lesbian cousin is there, or that I get into some sort of big fight with my mom's Bible-thumping cousins from Atlanta. They're the black sheep of the family, not me - in a lapsed Catholic family, they're extremely devout Protestants who are moving to India soon to set up a mission. Oh yeah, and their daughter my age is studying theology at Princeton, and is having a hard time because for the first time ever she's around people who drink. She's 24, for crying out loud. Talk about sheltered.
My sleep schedule's been screwy recently, and I don't see it changing in the near future. Because of finals I never had to be anywhere til 1:30 (more on that later), so I generally slept from 3 to 11 or 12, which was awesome. Then yesterday I drove up, planning on napping, but I failed because of traffic. I went out to dinner with high school friends, some of whom (Lori, Gurkie) I see a lot, but others (Aashoo, May) not so much. I then came back to my place, made plans for the night with UVA people (luke2k and dream2k2), then promptly took a nap at 9 PM. Woke up, showered, drove to Franconia for the first time, then went to Apex for college night, which was rough at first but ended up being ok once I got over myself and into a Southern Comfort & Cranberry. I generally like my clubs extremely drunken or extremely cool musically, and this was neither. Plus I don't cope well with huge quantities of generically good-looking, generically dressed types, for various insecurities that you either know already or don't need to know. Anyhow I had an ok time, but it was vaguely amusing that Adrienne and I were semi-checking out the same guys...esp. the one who resembled her ex-boyfriend.
Exams finished on the 22nd, which blew. The exams weren't as hard as I'd anticipated, but that might just be because I remained unnaturally calm during exam week. You all know I'm prone to worrying fits, yet finals did not stress me out much at all, except to take away my appetite. The first exam was Civil Procedure, which went the most smoothly (thank you, Prof. Rutherglen). Then came Torts, which was absurd as I finished in 90 minutes having only writte 5 1/2 pages as there were no issues and only one fact pattern! Third was Criminal Law, which I thought was ok, despite my classmates freaking out about it afterwards. Unfortunately, my last exam kicked my ass, and I'm kinda pissed at the professor for misleading us with the sample exam, and because he didn't show up to the exam, despite having sent us a smarmy email the day before chastising those of us who didn't ask him enough questions during the semester. As if they would have helped us on an exam that didn't address half of the substantive issues raised in class. I get my grades in February, btw.
Next Thursday I'm going to see VNV Nation with aparna and ninevrise and several others. Then Friday is New Year's in Baltimore, which should be interesting. The apartment is awesome, and has an amazing view, and two really nice beds. And three chairs. And nothing else. So if I end up having a party there, we're going to be sitting on the floor, or perhaps the air mattress can be inflated and we'll sit on it. Um, what else...probably Scissor Sisters concert at the 9:30 Club on the 12th, Depeche Mode party at the Black Cat on the 14th (unless I'm in Charlottesville), Dollhouse (Goth) or Mousetrap (Brit-pop) at the Black Cat (7th and 8th, respectively), a trip to NC is hopefully in the works...this is going to be a good break!
And then when I get back, I may be dating someone. Unfortunately I'm still not sure what happened right before break - there wasn't anything physical, but we went to Bang! (date restaurant), hung out at my place for a few hours, and regularly exchange texts, especially when we've been drinking. The problem is that he's just coming out and extremely gregarious by nature, so it may just be that he wants friends and doesn't realize that his behavior may be indicating otherwise. We'll see. |

You wake in the morning, but you're hard to find
A look in the mirror, what you've left behind
You go to your job, or you wander 'round
There's plenty of stuff, but nothing to be found
You're a late twentieth century
Post-modern refugee
A late twentieth century
Post-modern tragedy
There's nothing that'll move ya
There's plenty to be bought
There's no kind of mystery
There's no new thought
Tied up in your neurotic knots
Airhead celebrities, that's all you got
You're a late twentieth century
Post-modern refugee
A late twentieth century
Post-modern tragedy
Separated from nature and earth
You foraged once, now you're chained to the hearse
You disappeared in the checkout line
The price you paid was always just fine
You're a late twentieth century
Post-modern refugee
A late twentieth century
Post-modern tragedy
