darn fool cow

11:34PM - boredom overwhelms me...

Merwyn and I decided to stay home tonight instead of going to the Mark like we'd originally planned. I don't mind TOO much...I'm kind of tired from having to work today... but it's hot and stuffy in this apartment, and I'm not tired enough to sleep,so right now I'm feeling very bored.

I love spending time with Merwyn, but at times like this I wish I had someone else to hang out with. There's no one else I can think of who I know wouldn't mind if I called them up and asked to do something. I don't even have most people I know's phone numbers! Oh well. Maybe I need to find something fulfilling to do with my time, some volunteer work or a hobby. Even if I didn't get to know anyone, it would at least give me something to do...

I actually have some ideas, I'm just not sure how to go about them. I wonder if there is a dance class here in Olympia or a writing group...? I would love to volunteer for something like Bread and Roses, too, but last time I inquired about that they gave me a vague, discouraging answer. Actually the same thing happened with a writing group I asked about.
(Hmmm, a sign?)

There has to be SOMEthing out there for me, though! I want to be involved in things, not hanging around the hot stuffy apartment all the time...

Current mood: blah

Current music: mark heard

6:50PM - A little more about New York

I'm in a crabby mood right now and therefore not really in the mood to write, but I wanted to blab some more about my trip to NYC -- because someday it will be nostalgic, and because a couple of people actually asked. Plus two weeks have already passed.

( so here's more! )

5:58PM - I'm a pervert

That's what a random old fellow told me last week, as I browsed an East Village record store. I was wearing one of those touristy tank tops that says 'I (heart) NY' and flipping through the used CD bin, when out of the blue he said to me "If you love New York, you're a pervert." So I smiled and told him that I guess I must be one. I really did love that city... even more than I thought I would!

Here's a little about what my sister and I did on our trip -- so I can look back on some day when I'm feeling particularly stuck here in Oly, and feel inspired to plan another trip.
