HA!
I just realized that one of my favourite sayings doesn't even make sense for me!
In my natural-born life!
Ha!
Only partially naturally-born. The turkey-baster beginning doesn't really count as natural I bet...
Ha.


I AM IN A GOOD MOOD TODAY I LIKE EVERYTHING.

Which is a happy change from how lonesome everything was feeling last night. Sometimes I do not like being the only one in this household. But I am unwilling to commit to a cat or a babe apparently.


Went for coffee with the BFF yesterday (she needs a new nickname that one is sort of lame. But I do feel pleased about her being my BFF, she's the sort of person you feel proud to be around. Ha!) near her school and that was nice because she is in Law School and when you are in Law School you have time for no one else. SIGH.
Then I walked her back over to her Law School where I creeped around and took obnoxious pictures

I made that scarf, in case you were wondering, so don't insult it. It's the only thing I've ever finished knitting.
The basement of the BFF's school is very, very funny. It seems like it would be fancy and stuff but NOPE.

I think my high-school was fancier than this. But that is what makes it awesome. I tried every door to see if I could find any secret passageways (we had those in my high-school, though to be fair, sometimes I can't remember which parts were real and which parts were things I dreamt. Like I'm pretty sure that there was no underground carnival beneath my school, but was there a supply closet that lead to another supply closet? No? I don't even know. There definitely were tunnels though, and dirty dusty areas that felt cool because we weren't supposed to be in there). No door was open.

Poor BFF, shouldn't allow me into places of higher learning...
Then we found her BF who I will call BRAD because of he's such a boyfriend and it seems like Brad is a good name for a boyfriend. Brad told me I looked vaguely homeless in that touque! Too true!!! And Brad told me a joke but I was having none of that. I will tell you that it was about tampons, but that's all.
Brad is kind of funny, he is 6 foot 7, and he is also going to become a lawyer and sometimes he talks like one like one time he was like "So, what's it like being from Saskatoooon" but I mean, I don't know what it's like being from anywhere else...
Yes, he's very nice and also we don't know what to make of each other.

GOOD STORY.

Anyone want to weigh-in on me using one of these two to be my new headshot?
I know I already asked this and the only person that I should ask is my agent but I'm sort of micro-manager/independent fuck, so it's hard on me. Okay?
I'm just wondering if it's even worth it to try and do another shoot in the next few weeks (which might not even get around to happening if the past few months are any indication) or if these are actually very nice and totally usable/appropriate.




I'm kind of favouring the bottom one. I like seeing them with my name for some reason. Makes it seem official or something.
You can check my IMDB for other pictures I've been using to market myself. To compare. I KNOW THAT YOU ARE VERY INTERESTED.

schooled

Went an after hours loft party for Sass's birthday last night.
On account of it being a loft party there were a tonne of people smoking inside. Kind of wild how that was only outlawed a few years ago. It makes such a difference, my throat hurts this morning from being up in that and washing my hair this morning I realized how much bad smoke smell it trapped.
Nice.

I have a subscription to Geist magazine by proxy (meaning, it still comes to my house despite the subscriber not living here anymore. and I contacted the subscriber via Facebook [the new phonebook] to see if he wanted his magazines and he told me I could read them), and it was making me think about how I want to be a writer. But I never write.
This is my main issue, the lack of actual writing.
I'm basically an idea-factory, but in terms of actual sitting down to write... yeah, not my forte.
Or my family's forte. If my family all produced what we are theoretically capable of, well, we'd be damn prolific.

Anyhow. So I got to thinking about going back to school. For writing. I mean, I don't do anything in the daytimes anyway, I could keep my same jobs, keep going to auditions (miss class as necessary - it's not like I go out all that often anyhow).
The only thing is how I would need to get more student loans.. and I haven't even made a dent in paying off the last ones.
It would be different if I were guaranteed a well-paying job after this bought of school.......

OH, I don't know.

I'm just sort of uncomfortable with what I'm doing with my life, I need more going on, and I'm not sure I can self-start this, I'm pretty bad at making myself do work.

And it's kind of weird but I feel strangely about not having a university degree. I'm pretty smart so I feel like I should be more educated or something.
But then maybe I wouldn't even go to university, maybe I would go to college...
Or maybe I should take some part time courses. Do they have part time courses in the daytimes? Because that's when I'm available...

Oh jeez.
Luckily I'll probably be over this idea by next week.
