Such an exciting life. Yesterday was my big trip to Casino Rama. Good god, that place is scary.So many lights and the noise and the smoke and the people. I think I'm at serious risk of developing either agoraphobia or xenophobia. I hate being in large crowds of people, or even small crowds sometimes, if I don't know anyone. At any rate, by the time I got back to the house at around 10 I felt like I'd had a fucking lobotomy, only instead of cutting my brain out they'd ripped it out and left some strands in.

The upside was that my dad came to meet me for supper (a buffet roast beef dinner...I was in heaven) and I got to hang out with him for three hours or so. I really miss my dad a lot. We're quite close, and I miss being able to spend time with him. He's applying for a new job as a member of the OPPA Executive, and I got to read over his resume, which is HUGE.

It was funny, as I was waiting for my dad in the lobby, I could see him walking across the parking lot, and once again it struck me how much he looks like a middle-aged, greying-blonde Patrick Pentland. Naturally, this resemblance is only enhanced by the fact that my dad now wears thick black frame glasses like Patrick does. (And yes, he does it on purpose.)

Friday night was also good. Leslie and I went out with Benjamin, his girlfriend Kori, Mathman (all of whom were in the play we co-directed last term), Todd and a girl named Kate that I hadn't met before to Steve's for supper. We had lasagne, caesar salad, buns, apple pie, and cheesecake, and pretty much hung out for 5 or six hours at Steve's...it was really fun. (Made me miss my Steve muchly, though.) It seems that I will be living with Mathman, Benjamin and possibly Kori next year, as well as Darcy (who wasn't there, but either is or was Kate's boyfriend at one point.)

I'm getting ready to mail all my Valentine's stuff out, which will put a sizable dent in my pocket, but will be well worth it. I hope.

like rain, like rain
fills my cup
like 4 season in one day"
