oh dear. i seem to have put back all the toxins. nevertheless, last night was great.

from me telling myself "just one beer and then i'll go home and watch TV" to an epic adventure including really amazing girls to hang out with (one of whom is from my part of england!), an ex-crush who is a really fun and intelligent guy, two brothers from my high school (long-losts!), a mad iranian, smoking on someone's lawn, and making some kind of egg-bean-ricotta burritos for everyone. i got home at 6:30 am. i am still hungover. but it was a fitting going-away party for jennylee.

highlights:

* when i accidentally said i was going to buy jennylee a "go-away drink" and then five minutes later i told her she sure was bossy!
* jennylee trying on the lawnmowing wife outfit i gave her, a little red terrycloth combination tube top & hot pants. and the looks we all were getting in the girls' bathroom.
* naomi and i bonding over eastenders and julie and i bonding over boys.
* not remembering how we got all over town....actually, not remembering some of the places we went all that well. still a good time.

today my mom and i got kick-ass shoes. i feel great in my new shoes. i will walk everywhere in them. also we got yummy chocolates.

K and i are not really talking again. i guess. that's probably why i drank a lot last night. but i am glad it was a positive time for once. i just wish i could change the dissociated feelings.
