at last! my triumphant return to bloggery
I'll just make a few quick notes, since I seem incapable of writing full or emotionally evocative entries most of the time. Let's see...ah, yes. I did finally graduate college. The last...week, week and a half...has been spent in spiritual communion with my own capacity for excess. I can't believe I actually got up for graduation! THat was some early shit but it still happened. Like the rest of my university experience, this day would have been lost to boredom and disspirit if not for my friends. I set next to some lovely people and made fun of the whole affair rather loudly, while alternately playing Britney Spears on my headphones (blasting out onto the three of us, obviously) and playing hangman on the back of the graduation program.
So, I've received about $400 (is it still bouregois to talk about money?) for graduation since the event itself. Guess how much has gone toward drugs and drinks? If you're guessing more than fifty percent, YOU'RE RIGHT! Who needs nest eggs. I need a cocktail.
The last few weeks have been lost in great music, great company and all that party shit. I just don't want to seem as complacent with my affections as I do with the state of my reality. Which reminds me, today is going to be another little adventure in perception alteration. These are the hallucinatory treats from my crush's house, who is gone, gone, gone. SoDak, NYC and the Thailand for that one. I will miss just looking at him, though I think he might have been one of the ones who is as interesting as he is fun to look upon. While odds are he is straight, it's important for me to point out that the only two other people I have really crushed on this year have both been gay, so the days of me holding torches for straight men are crazy over (so high school, anyway).
I have to leave for Seattle earlier than previously thought. I will now be missing my baby brother's 21st birthday, which sucks. I think he is secretly relieved. I don't really have much of a choice in the matter, since I have to be in Seattle on the 2nd to go over the what's what in my new place.
I am swimming in story ideas right now, but just as detox is presently impossible (helloooo, I'm celebrating my own departure), so is sitting down for much longer than twenty minutes to focus on a single thought.
Which reminds me...
