Four days till we premiere, folks, and you know what that means! That's right, this place is a virtual mecca for muffin baskets, mylar balloons, and general debauchery. All the excitement is serving me well. I'm eating again, finally. In fact, I polished off an entire Combination #13 at Paco's Wednesday night. I asked the Designated Driver if she had any theories as to why I was chowing down on a chimichanga like it was going out of style (But were chimichangas ever actually in style? I mean, deep fried meet rolled in sour cream? Not so sexy, I 'spose). She replied, "Because you're happy." And she's kinda right. I've felt more like myself this past week than I have in months. Maybe it's work, maybe it's because I've been very productive on the writing front, maybe it's because I've discovered that Alice Munro is a kick-ass writer, and reading kick-ass literature is always a pick-me-up in my book... Regardless, happiness has ensued, for however long. It doesn't matter, I'm just going to try to enjoy it. And tonight I'm seeing Date Boy again, but I'm gonna tell him I've had it with the Friday dates. It's everything I can do to lug myself up our apartment stairs and fling myself into bed after a long week of work. Top that all off with a normal 10 PM departure time, and I don't think I'm just being a psycho girl beast by asking him for Saturday or Sunday requests. Plus, I'm about as attractive as Delta Burke when I'm tired, with a disposition to match.
And everybody, please set your Tivos (or just plain watch) for the WB Tuesday at 9 PM!!!!
WHAT?!
You went out to PACO'S, the place I've been DREAMING ABOUT, on a WEEKDAY, the sworn no-going-out days?
Psh, I was going to bring my raclette grill by the lot tonight, but I guess I'll just sit here mindin' my own.
Wait a second... Tuesday at 9 is the premiere for Pepper Dennis... so thats what you have been working on? Such a small world - my dad was working on that same show December-January (he just plain ole crew though), and I went down to the lot and visited the set and had lunch with him at the commissary. Good luck with the premiere!
