12:35 pm - What's eating Gilbert Grape?
Here's an unattractive personal story: for over a week I've had the worst skin irritation. Initially I thought it might have something to do with dustmites or something, so I cooked all my bedclothes in the wash, aired out my bedding and mattress, but it just got worse. I haven't had more than 4 hours per night sleep in a over a week. I've also just been incredibly anxious when I go to bed - I'd just lie there and think about my itchy skin. I'd gotten to the point I wasn't sleeping with sheets or a pillow, I've just been lying on my mattress, in my clothes, and I'd listen to Cinema Strange until I'd fall asleep (no offense to Cinema Strange, it's just something about the bass and vocals that puts me to sleep. Their first album is bloody great. But I digress..). But this morning I tried putting a steroid-based cream on it and within ten minutes the itch was gone and I went straight to bed, slept all morning and I just woke up feeling fucking great! Sleep is such a beautiful thing, god how you miss it when it doesn't come. I figure the whole thing was anxiety-related.
Anyway, really looking forward to tonight. You know what? Last night two different lads asked me out and instead I was rude and excuse-ridden and I sat at home on my own watching a reall shit straight-to-dvd horror movie (it's funny how being sick of men seems to be the easiest way to attract them), so I gotta get out and drink and celebrate and be less pod-person. I'm looking forward to drinking and dancing, but mostly I'm looking forward to tonight because I actually get to spend NYE with people I really love and want to be with. Going to dinner at Bell's, then heading out with her, Luke, Zac, Jen, Gen, and hopefully Dani and Bonnie - how great are my friends? How cheerful am I right now? Very much so!
