for some reason...

I'm still snickering about something that happened this morning. The alarm went off, and they were playing that horrible horrible song, Contagious by "The Isley Brothers" (I don't believe it's REALLY them). MelRo thought it was some made up song by Howard McGee, like a parody. Then she made some comment about how she believes her personal quality of life has been diminished because she heard that particular waste of a song. Tee-hee. Then again, I'm also still laughing about a line from the movie on Saturday night. We decided to get popcorn, since we had free passes to the movie, and the two of us pretty much inhaled most of the bag in the 20 minutes before the movie started. Near the end of the bag, something happened and the bag tipped and almost capsized, but she caught it. I said something about it being a close call, and she said "yeah, good thing we're pigs otherwise we would have had popcorn all over us."

i'm laughing right now.

maybe you had to be there. but i'm writing this down so i'll remember it, not you. :)

i miss stuff like that. you guys sound really cute. color me jealous. actually, it makes me smile thinking of it.

btw: had another dream last night. you looked like my friend annie from minneapolis, only more butch (and she's quite butch). i saw you at a bar with lots of other lj folks who i don't know. you were dancing really well. had on a red long-sleeved shirt with a blue stripe across the chest. i wanted to dance with you, but you had like 20 people surrounding you. it was sad. i waved when i left.

sometimes i feel weird writing about good stuff. like i'm only allowed to write about happy stuff after a long period of suffering. or i'm only supposed to write about the frustrations or problems. but then i go back and read entries, and it seems so lopsided. plus, i really like reading about other people's cute moments or shared intimacy or just every weirdness. so i should enjoy my own. and write them down to remember later. so yeah, we probably are sickeningly cute. but not as much when other folks are around -- just for our own entertainment purposes.

your dream made me sad. not in dramatic depressing way, but in a nostalgic sorta way. it also really made me realize how fcking far away you are from me and how i haven't seen you in person in SOOO long. which is hard to think about when i want to give you a big hug right now and take you out for a walk by the lake. or to get ice cream or something small and Evanston-y like that.

don't feel bad about being angry. and i definitely feel you on the whole minimizing emotions deal. i do that a lot.

virtual hugs aren't the same, but i'll say it anyway:
{{{big hug}}}.

ok. now i'm really going to cry. i'd love some ice cream and a walk with my favorite always-showing-up-in-my-dreams guy. i wish i could say i'll be in chicago soon. i'll be at the airport this friday for a couple of hours, and again tuesday night. but not chicago. and i don't think they even let people in to the airports who aren't flying anymore, do they?

::sniff:: ::sniff::

i think i'm getting my period soon. i'm having constant ups and downs and the only thing that would make me happy right now (the only thing in the realm of the possible, that is) is a bag of cheetos and a diet dr. pepper. food, always. and routine. and though i dislike blaming moods on my rag, and finding comfort in food, these are the sad facts.

thanks for the virtual hug. right back atcha.
*heart*

aaahhh, diet dr. pepper and cheetos, lovely. i think i'll have to get some this week to make me feel better. good idea!

and ray, yep, i may be around again soon. i've recently been liking commenting more than writing, but, i figure that's somehow unfair and i should post.

when will your layover be on Friday and Tuesday? which airport? i'd certainly like to try to see you, even if for just an hour or so, hanging out by the baggage claim. i can check on what's up with O-Hare and their security regulations....

Re: sometimes...

[stuey.livejournal.com]

wow. that'd be great. really great. super great. fan-fucking-tastic. jeebus, stop.

o'hare. that's where i'll be. friday from 12:22 until 3:22 and then tuesday night from 5:45 until 7:26.

they were out of ddp (diet dr. pepper) at walgreen's. sad. diet coke is no subsitute, because it really tastes *diet*. yet, i settled. the cheetos were good. i could eat another whole big grab bag. my stomach is a bottomless pit.

i'd *love* to see you. but don't feel like you've got to rearrange your schedule or anything. i need to really get up there for real soon. all of my best friends from high school now live there, plus, well, you and lots of other folks i want to see. i need a good three day weekend, and for someone to buy me a plane ticket :). i'm going to look at prices right now, actually.

baby- wait let me explain before you start to point your cane!!!

OMG-- the most laughable line from that Isley Bros. song is this:

"shut up! can't you see two men are talkin'?" "thought i told your ass to get to walkin'

i totally thought it was a parody as well :)

Ps- i'm contagious ;)

[raybear.livejournal.com]

omg, yes. i totally forgot about that line. and what's up with that weird quasi-plot device in the video when he's like "don't i know from somewhere"? is R. Kelly supposed to be his bastard son or something?

p.s. if you're contagious, then don't touch me, baby.

Re: baby- wait let me explain before you start to point your cane!!!

[ridleymae.livejournal.com]

i interpreted that part of the video (listen to us!) as R Kelly being someone from his past. like an old rival maybe or soemone who screwed him over. esp since during that part Chante' Moore is like 'no no no' in the background likes SHE knows but doesn't want him to know . .

you know ray, maybe I never told you, but that sm remix "say my name bitch" is actually a song that I did with destiny's child. You should see THAT video!

I even made a trans-inclusive re-remix called "say my name, boi-otch" it's just as hot because in that vidoe, D's child are all in drag...and liking it!

(now there's a post to diminish yer quality o life!)

creepy and proud,
