Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Anytime anyplace works for me on Monday. I have the whole day off.

lordy I just caught a giant bug in the box office. It looks like one of those Texas cockroaches. (it was wearing boots and smoking a cigar) I have trapped it in a poster tube which I labeled, "there is a giant bug (roach?) in here". I wonder if I should save it for the exterminator or throw the whole thing out in the dumpster.

When I explained that nothing worked to a salesperson in Sephora, she got me to try "Kiss Me" masacara by Blinc, which works very differently than other mascaras.

I wonder if that would work for me. My problem is that I have oily eyelids, and the oil takes off waterproof mascara. My other problem is that I can't imagine spending $25 on mascara.

I'm terrible at makeup, Laga, but I have found that the mineral-based powder foundation stuff is pretty foolproof. I'm no good at liquid foundation.

I do OK with foundation! I just buy the lightest shade I can find. It's the blush and the mascara that scares me. And the fact that all the lipsticks I have are in some shade of shocking pink or purple. I favor the magic-color-changing fun type stuff. Right now I'm having a wee panic attack reminiscent of those times in high school when my hair stylist would show me something Really Cool! I could do at home but in the morning before school I Could Not Get It To Work The Way It Had In The Salon!

blueberry oatmeal scone... OK if you're trying to sneak into an R rated movie, don't ask the manager what time it starts! This kid just asked me what time does Superbad start and when I asked to see his ticket he stammerred, "oh, no, my, dad, justwantedtoknowwhattime it starts." Looks like I'll be doing ticket checks in Superbad.

Thrive to spite them

Dad's birthday was today. I bought him some plants for his butterfly garden. He sent me home with some caterpillars.

I went over and made dinner and a friend had dropped off a cake and wine so we had that for dessert. The wine was a wonderful shiraz that was too rich for dinner but perfect with the chocolate cake.

And my brother and FSIL have finally set a firm date and place for their wedding -- Jan 5, 2008. In Hawaii. So Mom's kinda upset because she can't afford a ticket to Hawaii, and if she could she can't take the time off. I'll be saving my money and hoping I can get a ticket.

But then Dad said that's right when he got his yearly bonus so I don't think either Mom or I will have to worry. We don't have to worry about a place to stay because Bro is renting some kind of villa thing. I'm assuming I'm on the guest list, they are only inviting 12-15 people to the wedding. (He and I aren't terribly close and while I assume I'll be invited maybe there's a chance I won't, who knows).
