Holla Holla

I have my VOICE back :)

I went to see the Really Useless Improve Troup last night, and in the midst of all the laughing and shouting I got my voice back! I'm feeling much better today. I actually got out of the house. I went to the mall and bought shampoo and soap and stuff. I also bought a new book called Undoing Depression. It's new and a lot of the depression websites I frequent have recommended it so I'm gonna give it a read. First step in my self-help plan. If the professionals ca'nt help me then by Goddess I know I can help myself.

I ran into Adrienne *sigh* at improv. She is still terribly cute and sexy and all that good stuff. And she will be gone all of next year, so I'll never see her again after we leave this spring.

I'm retarded. Kevin goes out on a like a date a week! He is obviously not waiting for me. I can't pretend I'm not still hoping he'll want me back. I know we said we'd hang out if both of us were single in the summer. I thought that was a promise of some kind. I think I'm just too sensitive. I need to stop hoping for him, just like I had to stop hoping for Marc.

Hoping for him is only keeping me from pursuing what I want.

Time to say goodbye.

Tonight I'm going to clean my room, little by little. I'm watching the Sixth Sense on TV. I forgot how good everyone is in this movie. I spent the rest of last night at home playing on the computer. I found this site called Weird Links, and true to their name it's just a site full of crazy ass links. Lots of conspiracy theory stuff, and violence, and silly things. I highly recommend checking it out. It's good dumb fun.

Time to go play maid.
