COLOUR OF BLOOD, CHAOS AND CORRUPTION OF A HAPPY SOUL.

I LOVE Fridays. But my mind is not at ease. I don't like it when I have a lot of stuff to do in a short amount of time. So I think that I need a reality check here. I am doing 3 main things tomorrow that are enjoyable and that I want to do, so I should not approach it with a feeling of dread. The first thing is that I'm getting a microdermabrasion peel. I get one of these facials every month as a trade for artwork. Secondly, I am going to go pick up my oral contraceptive pills, which I remembered to have refilled in enough time for me to get to the pharmacy without a panic. Ahhhhh, the responsibility that refreshes! Lastly, I am going to a Salsa dance club for a surprise birthday celebration for the cutest little mexican girl in the world, my old friend Andrea. This is the part that has me the most apprehensive. They just changed the location of the party because there was a shooting at the club (last night) where they were originally going to have it. ooooh, get me away from here, I'm dying! The thought of me spending $20 to Salsa dance is comical. If Andrea hadn't have been my friend for my entire life minus thirteen days then there is no way I would bother. But I think it's going to end up being a lot of fun. Like many instances of planning to go out, I dread it until I'm actually doing it and having fun. I even have a new pretty dress to wear!

I am tired right now so it's hard to imagine having energy to do any of these things tomorrow. Douglas wanted me to go rollerskating with him and the fashionistas tonight, but Vicky is coming over after work to make pot brownies, so I'm staying at home. Vicky, Chris and Annie are going to Disneyland (hence the pot brownie snacks to take with) and I can't go because of the facial and the surprise party. I just remembered something nice that Ben said to me last night, that he'd go to Disneyland with me in December or January. I can't wait. I don't want to miss the Nightmare Before Christmas at the Haunted Mansion. I want to bring my video camera this year!

On Sunday, I think Amber and I are going to go to Iguana Vintage Clothing on Ventura Blvd. so she can buy a poodle skirt for Halloween. Tiffany has never been there so I'm going to see if she wants to go, and maybe Tony might even come with us if he's free! I'm going to look at the array of stripey and glittery tights they have. I'm not sure if I will actually buy any, but I just got a garter belt last night so I can wear thigh high tights again, so I may consider getting some of those.

The perfect evening sounds like going home and having some food, a little nap and then getting up and watching some great romantic old movie while I hang the rest of my pictures up in my room. It will be interesting to see how this evening unfolds.... all I can think of right now is that nap. Does it mean that I'm getting boring? You tell me...
