11:25 Late Sunday Night   Teresa, Moron of the Year Ok, maybe that's an overstatement. (lets hope.) It's just that I have this seemingly physical inability to go to bed. I'm all like, oh yeah, Caleb won't be home until midnight my time, so i can't talk to him on Sunday nights and Monday nights. But what do I do? Stay up late hoping to talk to him anyway. RARRR On the bright side, I know that he, too, is unwilling to go to sleep when we chat during his late night/my morning. Therefore, I know that I am not the only one in this relationship with a somewhat wonky idea of how much sleep really truly is needed... unfortunately, it is far more common for me to stay up late talking to him in his evening than it is for me to get up early enough to talk to him at night. I vowed to myself that i wouldn't bitch about work in this entry. So i'll suffice it to say that I'm going to ask Kelly if she has anything that I can do, and if she's willing to pay me what Paul/John pay me. Yesterday was a lovely day. I woke up early to talk to caleb (thus long rambly bit at beginning of entry), went to coffee with M and gave her a shirt I made for her ages ago for her 18th birthday and a Hello Kitty folder I found whilst in NZ. I got to see her new apartment and we hung out and talked about all manner of interesting things. Good times. I then went home and lounged about doing some laundry here and tidying up my room there. As I was getting ready for the MED performance, I attempted to use a flat iron to curl my hair. It worked on SOME parts of my head but not so beautifully on others...so i had a kind of mangled mess of curls/straightness. Not so pretty. I ended up pulling back into a hair clip and hairspraying the daylights out of it. Then the make up. Thankfully it didn't have to be as gaudy as normal stage makeup, so i didn't have to draw on such heavy eyebrows as usual. hooray! I got to the venue a full hour and a quarter before the show started, and I hadn't bought a ticket for the show (I was like, i'm performing in it, why do i have to pay to watch it?!), but apparently you had to have a ticket to eat the food. poos! so the delicious smell of the Indian feast catered by my favourite restaurant is wafting into my nostrils and i'm sitting back stage fiddling around with my costume which really doesn't take an hour to put on, but if i try i can stretch it out. The point is that our 2 minute performance went really well (I think!). I felt good about it , anyway. There were no parts where I felt like I had seriously screwed up so I just hope the lines and spacings were alright. I stayed until two girls went on after us and did this awesome spinny duet with veils and then I went to Jamba Juice and bought some smoothies and hung out with Hailey. That was fun too. It was a pretty fun day. Today I went to church, hung out with M, my sister, and some of her friends, went home and tried to make a shirt, gave up and had a nap, went to dinner with my sister and my dad, hung out in the hot tub and discussed what my sister's future career will be (still undecided), and came up here and thought, hey i should clean, or study for the GRE, or make a shirt, or really anything productive...but instead i'm writing a sit entry. haha, go me. I have been at least LOOKING at the GRE practise test. Sad things...Emily's leaving us again to go back to Iowa. I really wish I could have gotten to hang out with her more. Lunch with her, Laurie, and Momo at Indian Oven was really awesome. I'm kind of disappointed that they never have aloo gobi or mattar on the buffet but eh, what do you do. "eat chickpeas and cabbage" is the answer to that. Emily's sermon this morning was fun. It made me think that perhaps Dickinson's A Christmas Carol had a bit more underlying biblical symbolism than I had originally seen, what with today being about Ebenezers and all. and hey, Caleb got home early so i get to talk to him. things with Caleb are good. things with friends are good. Angie texted me yesterday, and M and I are going to have a tea party. I'm going to Lake Powell for a week at the beginning of August. there. I feel better now that I have written a more positive entry than what feels like my latest several.
