That didn't last long

Well I made it through almost 24 hours before having another emotional crash. Bleh. I'm feeling really, really down again. Boo.

Even though I have just as much Irish in me as I do Spanish, I never ever remember to wear green on March 17. Happy Excuse-To-Drink-Too-Much Day to those of you who are celebrating. You have no idea how much I wish I could join you.

I think the fives were in cahoots this week.

1. If you were to star in a movie, who would you want to be cast as your love interest? Hmm. Maybe Will Smith?
2. What genre of movie would you most like to star in? Comedy. Or Science Fiction. Or a mix. Something like Galaxy Quest would be a hoot.
3. What song would you insist be on the soundtrack? I don't know that actors get much say in that. But any movie soundtrack with me in it would probably be more along the lines of Henry Mancini's Pink Panther and less Hans Zimmer's Gladiator.
4. What would you wear to the premiere of your movie? Probably something I made.
5. Who would you thank in your Oscar acceptance speech? The Friday Five, for giving me the idea that this was even possible.

1. Which movie character is most like you?
2. Which TV character is most like you?
3. Which literary character is most like you?
I don't know that there are any fictional characters out there that resemble me, personality-wise. But long ago I realized I was the cliched archetype of "pretty, no-nonsense girl, with sharp tongue and acid wit, who loves her cat, but can't keep a man." I mean come on. I'm a walking fill-in-the-blank character sheet. Just add water individual personality traits!
4. Which song describes you? I have no idea. You tell me.
5. Which animal is most like you? A badger. Outwardly cute, rather low to the ground, generally docile, but ferociously defends her family and territory.

Sorry your feeling so blue lately. :(

I'll drink a beer for you...no, I'll drink two for you...no, I'll drink three for you...

Thanks.

Drink as many as you want for me. Just make sure one of them is a Guinness, hon!

You never need a reason to drink beer!

So.. I should have asked if you wanted company yesterday evening? I should follow my instincts more often, you could only say no, after all.

That would've been faboo! Oh well, next time.

I came to think of the process like waves of water. One wave washes up and over and away from you...but while it's there you're fucking wet, ya know?

The good thing is that the waves do, over time, come fewer and farther between as goblet gets drained.

May this wave pass from you quickly, and may the next moment of calm, quiet good be upon you before you know it.


D.

Yeah, I knew that moment of "ahhhh" was too good to last for very long. Let's hope it was, at the very least, an indication that the tide is finally receeding.

*hugs* to you, babe.

Good cinema always helps when I feel like that. Or watching robots make fun of bad movies. Or squash (the one-person sport, not the vegetable). Man, I miss squash.

Incidentally, I'm on the last episode of Season 1 of Lost, which has been much better than I expected. Any interest in checking it out after [livejournal.com profile] kalinobeche?

I should let you know that one of the primary characters does die during the first season.

one of the primary characters does die

Ha! Thanks for the warning. Thanks for the offer, too, but I got nothing to watch DVDs on.

[livejournal.com profile] roya_spirit loaned me her little combo TV/VCR thing so I can do some exercise tapes next week when Robinson is closed. But I can't imagine watching much else on it. I'm not a sit-and-be-entertained kind of girl.

I'm lining up some activities for myself for the weekend, and hopefully those will keep me from getting even more down.

It occurs to me *I* could use some distraction come Monday evening. If you don't have a pressing need for your cutting table, perhaps I could come over and chat while cutting out some fabric? If you do need the table, I could bring my knitting, instead. :)

Boo. Monday evening I have to meet with JoAnne to discuss costume issues for Cairo on the Kaw. If I get home before 8, shall I call you?

Call my cell phone 785-550-5404. I may well be on the road being shuttle for a friend in need of a ride from the airport.

am wishing I could go out & do some drinking. With my compliments. ;-)

whiskeys to make you friskey

The song I would say describes you (more makes me think of you now) is EveryWhere and NoWhere, I'm not sure of the artist, it was on the Practical Magic sound track.

Oh, I'd love to hear it! Could you bring the CD next time you're in town?

[identity profile] nottygypsy.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I will, the whole CD is worth the listen.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Cool. And you can see your fabrics, too! With any luck I'll have a couple chemises done.

I need to get a waist and inseam measurement from you for the bloomers. We can do that then, as well.

Ok! The bummer part is, I have NOTHING writen for the group! AckkkK!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Write about my life. Nobody will be able to tell if it's tragedy or comedy. Probably both. Ha. Ha ha. *weep*

[identity profile] nottygypsy.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
You are supposed to "write what you know" I need more research on that subject. ;)

[identity profile] nottygypsy.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Now I so wanna hear that CD! I'm looking forward to seeing you!
