the videos of "angry inch" and "wig in a box," hedwig and the angry inch
:dreamy sigh: oh john cameron. and stephen trask (who composed the songs) and theodore liscinski. oi. lovely. andrea martin, the crazy aunt in my big fat greek wedding, she was in hedwig. i knew i recognized her from somewhere. it's been months upon months since i've seen hedwig; i need to check best buy's prices when i get off work. hehe, i just printed out a hedwig paper doll.
so i wore my new pink cords yesterday. they're ridiculously too large; just the movement of my hips when i walk makes them fall down. needless to say, they'll be going back. i'm really baffled as to how to fix my long skirt, too.
when i got off work, layla called and told me i could come over then, so i grabbed jennifer, told frank how to get to layla's (sort of..haha) and departed. i was only planning on staying a little while; i wanted to call michael. as soon as i get there, though, layla gives me two shots of vanilla vodka. dentler and two other guys arrive, and we all (except jennifer) smoked some. i was given another shot, smoked a little more, and that did it for me, folks. this is the first time i've been drunk and high at the same time (i hadn't eaten that day except taco bell around 4:00 p.m., so those quick shots affected me). i was talking to john walker online during this, and he said that i'd have to find the right combination of weed and alcohol to not get sick. i thought, pish, i'm fine.
...
frank came over, and i don't think i'll ever hear the end of giving him wrong directions. i gave him the street name, though, so i don't feel so bad for telling him to turn at the wrong light. after a couple of carol's vanilla cigarettes and much talk of my pill popping days and psychosis, i had calmed a bit. jennifer and i left around 4:30 a.m. when i realized i had to work in four hours. i thought it was tonight, but alas, layla mentioned something about nathaniel working mornings. i had her find her schedule, and, sure enough, i work from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. erk.
i fell asleep by 5:00 a.m. and awoke at 7:00 a.m. to jennifer poking me and shoving me, my cell phone's alarm going off, and the raging desire to vomit. i managed to have a conversation with jennifer (about what? who knows.) and ignore my alarm clock until 8:00 a.m. i was able to get here on time, arriving right when the supervisor did. i've almost fallen asleep here several times, but i think i recently got a kick of adrenaline. all this excitement over hedwig sparked something...or something. i dunno.
this sucks, though, because now my days are going to get flipped again; there's absolutely no way i'm going to stay awake all night. i wish i had the ability to take a nap. i'll just make someone wake me up. last night was fun, though, even though i'm still recovering. i don't feel so sick at the moment; i've even been able to drink a root beer i stole from the fridge here at work. ;) i need a shower. i look like death warmed over.
carol was a riot. i don't know how her possibility of coming down here next fall stands, but it would definitely be cool having her around. someone else as fucking weird as layla and me...it surely makes me feel a little less insecure about being so strange.
against all authority is playing tonight, but since south by southwest is run by nazis, i'm not going. $100 for a wristband? i think not, little hitlers. i would never pay that much money to see people. except for trent. that ticket would be bought even if it were trent and only trent. mmm trent. i'm wanna have, like, ten thousand of his babies (catch that reference?). i need to call michael tonight. i miss michael.
"i look back on where i'm from, look at the woman i've become, and the strangest things seem suddenly routine."
<3, pyx.
