Wow.
I have absolutely nothing to say.
I've been spending a lot of time, just sitting around at home, not doing too much, not going out or interacting with anyone but my boyfriend and my cats.
I may go back to dancing, just briefly.
Only briefly because I am so desperately broke and we really need money. I'm not so crazy about this but it beats the hell out of pumping gas for minimum wage.
I hate this town.
Hallowe'en was lacking in eventfulness.
It wasn't bad, though. We drank a lot. We went to see Blue Dahlia at Kraftbrau. Blue Dahlia is some etheral type band, and Kraftbrau is a vile microbrewery. I'd never been there. It was filled with stupid townies dressed up like hipsters, which only made me angry. What they call "hallowe'en" we, in Chicago, call "Wicker Park". Now, see, you can dress with style and class when you want to. So you're telling me you dress that way out of choice? Plus it was a banquet set up, so the only seats were next to complete strangers. We stayed for five minutes. I sipped my bad wine, Rob finished his beer, and we both decided this was far too hellish to endure in a place that did not sell hard booze.
So we went to Harvey's. And drank. And drank. And drank. Then drank some more.
Rob bought four jello shots for the two of us, when I told him I never had jello because it scared me as a child. Then, we learned it still scared me. Anything that jiggles and bounces back when you poke it is not meant to be consumed. So I made Rob imbibe all four shots.
We finally left there when the ninety bucks we had brought had all been spent and went home to pass out. But not before I gave myself a tummy ache from too much chocolate, left over from our meager number of trick or treaters.
In other news...
I got my acceptance letter to Illinois Institute of Art. That's not bad, aside from me being completely ambivalent about the whole art school thing. But at least I know that I've been accepted to a school somewhere. Now all I need to do is get financial aid. It seems like an all right school though. The admissions counselors have been helpful and have given me a lot of information about student employment that actually is not awful. So I might go, I'm not sure yet.
I've been disheartened by my school experience but that is starting to fade. Everything in Kalamazoo has been so ludicrous and awful. There's no reason that school would be any exception.
I don't know what I'm going to do, specifically. But at least my options are open.
