Hi Perkins! Thanks. How are you?
Also, P.S. ita: USC recommends that people arrive by 7:00 in order to get parking for the 8:00 ceremony. Since there are about 8,000 graduates, and they're estimating a crowd of about 40,000.
You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Tired, but not sleepy.
I'm going to try to sleep though, unless something else exciting (because you were, of course, already exciting) like Rio or thread killing is going to happen.

Thanks! I know my posts are thrilling and exciting, but it's nice to have confirmation every now and then. You are probably asleep by now, though, since it's taken me so long to reply. Oh well. Your posts are exciting, too! If I was feeling more energetic I'd say we could try and close the thread down. But that would take some real effort at this point, and I don't think I'm up for it.
I am so exhausted, and yet, awake. Why? I slept for two and a half interrupted hours on Monday night, I only logged in five and a half last night, and I've been half asleep all day. Darn it. On the plus side, I have a hair appointment in the morning, so that should be fun. And I have some new makeup I bought on Monday, including a heavyish foundation, so I will at least look pretty tomorrow, whether or not I do actually sleep. Why is there so much to do? Silly finals. Silly moving away for a year, so I need to cram in all kinds of socializing. Silly graduation, that means some people are leaving LA for good, and I have no idea when I'll see them again. Silly silly silly stuff. I don't want to graduate. This is so sad. I never realized what a good thing senioritis was. Plus, on top of the million other little things I need to do, I need to pack up all my crap. Moving sucks, yo. And it's just cruel to make people go through the trauma of moving while they are also taking finals. Mean mean mean.
I think I'm going to go wash my face so I can go to sleep now, though. Night, Perkins, on the off chance you're still around!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oy. I thought I'd watch a bit of fluff while doing laundry so I popped in the 1st disc of The Lone Gunmen. I saw parts of the pilot when it aired but didn't remember much of it. I'll bet everyone involved was pretty horrified 6 months after it aired. Not so fluffy. Commentary should be interesting.

It should be a day off!
It's also Cinco de Mayo

Then it should be a day off with drinking!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She did clarify that it's Friday. You, Alibelle, never mentioned a date at all, so she has one up on you.
I don't know if I can make it, but there's no way I'm buying a pretty dress for anything I need to show up at 7am for.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's not like you're not up, ita....

ION, I woke up to a press conference about a bomb in midtown. NOT a good time. Of course, it turns out not to have been a big deal, but so why was WNYC airing this whole stupid press conference live? Totally harshed my waking-up vibe. (I have figured out the Thing To Do when using public radio as the alarm: Set it for five minutes before the hour, so you wake up to good news.)
