Mindless Meanderings of a Curly Haired Girl

It's got all the right elements: dark comedy, a great female lead, and a bizarre storyline.

Thank you Columbus, you found America, but didn't earn me a day off

It's about one moment
That moment you think you know where you stand
And in that one moment
The things that you're sure of slip from your hand
And you've got one second
To try to be clear, to try to stand tall
But nothing's the same
And the wind starts to blow
And you're suddenly a stranger
In some completely different land
And you thought you knew
But you didn't have a clue
That the surface sometimes cracks
To reveal the tracks
To a new world

What a good weekend. I needed that... I needed to remember what it was like to be with someone and laugh. Laugh a lot... for someone to tell me I was cute, to tell me I was funny, to want to take me to breakfast. It feels so good to spend time with a guy who gets my sense of humor, doesn't take life so seriously, and is willing to laugh both at me and himself. I had forgotten that dating and getting to know someone doesn't have to be so heavy all the time. It was nice to feel alive again, to smile, to laugh, to enjoy myself.

Did anyone else see the announcement on Iron Chef Louie's website? The theme for the halloween bash is "my senior prom." I nearly peed my pants when I read this, after Brie had purchased me that fabulous book of old prom photos. Now I have some ideas! Should be a great time. Can't wait!!

Saw Camelot this weekend with Momma. It was good, lengthy, but it had been a while since I had seen "real theatre" so it was a nice change of pace. I didn't realize until today that Camelot was done by the same people who did My Fair Lady... but once I learned that, it all made sense... I was like "oh, THAT's why it seemed so familiar."

I managed to get Frank on the phone this Saturday to wish him a happy birthday! I miss him so much. I can't wait to get out to Chicago to visit him. He and Marcos moved to a new apartment, and I am dying to see it! Maybe sometime in the next few months I can put together enough scratch to go out there. Anyone want to go with me? Chicago is a freakin' great place. I am hoping the White Sox win the world series... if it can't be our sox, it might as well be their sox.

Harvard Law Recruiting is almost over, and soon October will come to a close. I am worried, our numbers don't look quite as strong as I remember last year's numbers being - but I suppose we'll see how they fall at month's close.

So does anyone want to head out to Salem to do some Halloween related things? I still need to find a day to buy and carve a pumpkin. Didn't get to do it last year, this year I will make the time!
