10:40 am - in Spokane
|
Am in Spokane, WA for about a week, working at a conference for law school teachers. Filling binders, making name tags, setting up rooms, helping others, and so on. V. boring at times, but I get to see my old friends so am excited about that. Went out with L and her friend J last night ... went to the Mercury, park, Denny's ... not much to do in Spokane, but managed to stay out till 3:30; woke up at 7:30 todahy, feeling v. crappy. took a much needed nap later in the day and proceeded to meet many boring and/or crazy people from the conference. Always introduced the same way. Am tiring of this. And now for something completely different ...
I hate people who commit suicide
Haven't watched P&P; in weeks. Must find out what becomes of Mr. Darcy.
Been watching too many reruns of Monty Python's Flying Circus, because it's funny as hell but also because I can't stop watching a young John Cleese ...
Oh, shit. Time to go ahead and work again. This job sucks.
-Madison, going to work now.

1:29 am - Ooh.
|
So now I've botched that.
It's 1:28 now. And I better get to sleep if I want to wake up at a reasonable hour.
-Madison, really leaving now.

1:28 am - That awkard after-post moment
|
Just wanted to get this one out of the way.
You know, after the first post, there's the inevitable second post that feels some need to live up, or well, down, to the expectations set by the first post.
And here it goes.
And there it went.
So here I go.
-Madison, signing off

1:14 am - My very first entry
|
Here it is, 1:14 in the a.m., and I'm writing to you all.
And the mind goes blank. Typical.
I suppose I should introduce myself.
I'm going by Madison right now, which is not my real name, but is the city in which I was born. I'm a high school student.
I live in the U.S. of A.
I'm an aspiring film-maker ... looking onward to film school. Etc. Ah, etc.
Now that that's out of the way.
I just finished watching the first 2 episodes of Pride & Prejudice, and I .... need ... more.
It's absolutely wonderful, which is such a surprise because I hate, hate, hate things like that. That Jane Austen shit.
But P & P is an absolutely gorgeous film. And I seem to have developed a crush on Mr. Darcy, as many have before me.
Anyway, I need the next four episodes, but the video store is indeed closed at this hour.
I wish things were flip-flopped ... that we could all live and go out and about and eat and rent videos all through the night and sleep during the day ... but alas, Hollywood Video seems to disagree with me.
Well, now that I've gushed about Pride & Prejudice like an English schoolgirl, I suppose I should go ahead and stop writing now. Right.
-Madison, signing off.
