yellow streetlight

here's how my day started off:

- took my lipgloss out of my purse. opened it. immediately dropped it on my cat-hair filled floor.

i thought, "i hope today isn't another yesterday."

did i pick the cat hair off the gloss and still use it? you betcha. hey, it was pineapple flavor. you would have done it too.

ok, maybe it was a little gross.

anyways. then i got dressed and went to staff meeting. from 12:15p to 3:30p.

then came back upstairs to my apartment and my dad almost immediately called! he was turning onto my street!!!!

he's staying with me for a few nights. probably until saturday morning. i was very happy when he arrived. and we instantly jumped into an old Evans tradition - made a pot of coffee, hopped on the couch and cracked open a bag of potato chips. only the finest.

actually, the very first thing we did was investigate the strange smell. and much to my surprise - he couldn't smell anything. and when he momentarily would smell something, he said it did not smell dangerous.

i can still smell it through my whole kitchen. but, at least i have someone telling me it doesn't smell dangerous.

which also leads me to believe that something is wrong with me. phantom smells? isn't that a symptom of a brain tumor? that's what i remember from Grey's.

anyways. i didn't die last night in my sleep. and so far, we're all still okay.

but i woke up this morning at 7:45am to feed Ruby and the first thing i thought was, "hey! i woke up!!! i'm not dead!!" and i thought the exact same thing when i woke up again at 8:30, and again at 11am. it was an exciting morning.

anyways. it's fun having my dad here. we hung out here for a bit and then went out to dinner at this italian restaurant, Lui Lui's, in west lebanon. i had a bbq chicken calzone with pineapple added. delish. my dad had spaghetti and meatballs. also delish.

then we came back here and relaxed. watched some Entourage. loves it. oh, i love that show so much.

the episode when Ari goes to the headmaster's house and pleads to him to let his son into the school? aw. so good.

and now it's 10:27pm. i hope it's a quiet night at work.

tomorrow is wednesday. i have to go to the post office. i believe my red plaid shirt is waiting for me. SUPER excited slash nervous.

hm. what else can i tell you?

Ruby is happy to have my dad here.

i started listening to this Jason Schwartzman interview on KCRW radio. the show, Morning Becomes Eclectic, hosted by Jason Bentley. i haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but what i heard was very funny. Jason is totes hilairs!!! (totes hilarious.....not sure if that abbrev worked out) and he was also like, a guest DJ, so he got to play music. and he played and Julian Casablancas song!! 'Glass' which is a great song. and he dedicated a song to his dog, Arrow, which was so funny. he was like, "Arrow, I know you don't speak English...or any other language as far as I can tell, but if you're listening, this one is for you." oh, he's so adorable.

and speaking of J.Schwartz, i recently let my dad borrow The Darjeeling Limited - which he loved - and he told me that he thought that there were a few scenes in the movie where Jason reminded him of himself when he was younger. i guess with the long hair and moustache. i thought that was pretty cool.

did i tell you about the portuguese muffin i had? yeah. i think i did. that was a pretty big story. .....

hm. what else? there must be something! a whole DAY has passed.

i dropped my cell phone on the ground today and it split into three pieces. but then i put it back together. GREAT!

i still smell something funny. something not right. we tested my oven and burners. everything worked, and nothing exploded. that must be a good sign.

anyways. i might get into bed and watch more Entourage. or watch an episode of Tell Me You Love Me. a new HBO show that andrew recommended. it's got Adam Scott. he's a funny guy. was in Knocked Up. he was on Veronica Mars. he's on Party Down. and on the show he's married to Penny from Lost.

the show is about these three different couples who all start seeing a sex therapist. and it's all different stories, with the same therapist. and somehow i think, the three stories will start to intertwine. i just started the show. it's good so far.

also so far: it's very enjoyable reading the tweets from Crash Kings as they start their first headlining tour. i hope they continue tweeting throughout the whole tour. mainly it's been about what kind of food they're currently eating. but hey - that's fine with me. they need to start making blog videos STAT. they would be a great blog video band.

alright, friends. sorry tonight hasn't been more active and exciting. the night is still young.

we're coming up on 11pm.

OK. why haven't i seen Avatar yet?!?! SERIOUSLY!! i can't figure this out. i need to see it asap before the Globes. WAIT!!! the Globes are on SUNDAY. uh oh. this could be a close call. maybe i'll go sunday afternoon.

THE GLOBES!!!!!! this will be my first award-show recap in the new blog!!!!! on my new laptop!!!!! ooo it's so exciting. and, if my sources are correct, both KATE and LEO will be attending the big event. we all know how that makes me feel. i can't even talk about it because it's too late to start freaking out with excitement.

oh man. kate and leo. remember last year when Kate DOMINATED the actress categories?!!?!? and she confessed her love for Leonardo in her Revolutionary Road speech. and she looked absolutely gorgeous. that was a great night. simply great.

has everyone seen the magazine cover with Kevin Jonas and his new wife?? is that not the happiest picture ever?? the smile on his face is just so great. how can i be mad at him with that smile?? it's so big and excited.

ok. now it's 11:02pm. i guess now that's all i have to say.

ok, so i just realized that i am cold. and i also felt a breeze come in through my window. so i said, "hey, i'll check the temp!"

7. 7 degrees. seven. at 11pm. remember last night it was 22 degrees at like, 2am?!?!! what gives?!?!? the temp last night must have been wrong. 7 degrees sounds way more right.

it's 11 degrees in Berwick. 11 degrees in Concord. 14 degrees in Nashua. 48 degrees in Comox, British Columbia. that's F, not C.

i wish i had gone to meteorology school. i think that stuff is fascinating. i suppose there's still time.

alright.

i'm really tired tonight. i have been tired ever since i woke up. i must have been subconsciously stressed out over whether or not i would die in my sleep. and didn't really get some good z's.

Ruby Tuesday must be sleeping with my dad. i don't see her anywhere.

OH i should go to the bank tomorrow. don't let me forget.

ok. i think now i'll get into bed and watch tv on my laptop. aahhh the wonders of 2010.

ya know, i hate writing that year. it feels so obnoxious. anyone else feel this way? i just don't like it. it's like the Regina George of years. the queen bee. the mean girl. anyone second this?

ok. NOW. i think i will sign off.

goodnight friends!! i'll talk to you again soon. have lovely nights and days and everything in between.
