EXHAUSTION!!!!

But it's a good kind. After the long, long day on Saturday that was filled with meetings, hanging out, laughter, some pretty good chicken and artichoke pizza, and some w-inds PVs, it was nice to crash out for a few hours. Only to wake up to a gloomy morning, head over to a friend's place for a meet up for Bay to Breakers up in San Francisco.

B2B was AWESOME. Nicolette and Terry went with me for the joyride and we cheated slightly by parking around the 1 mile marker and made our way down with the rest of the teeming masses. It was fun seeing everyone's costumes. Seriously. I saw a bunch of Elvis(es) impersonators, the I Dream of Jeanne jeannes, spawn that ran the opposite way, vikings, pirates, hippies, Smurfs and Smurf village, penguins pushing their iceberg, the Trojan horse (complete with Romans), butt-nekkid men and women, and many, many others.

It was a total blast to see everyone having a fabulous time, dancing, running, drinking in the streets. Total devil-may-care-but-hotdamn-we-don't attitude. It was a plethora of free love, booze, and smiles for everyone and from everyone. We found it incredibly satisfying to be in the midst of such celebrations and felt that life was more like this. Celebrating life and enjoying it past all racial, social, and political lines. There was political and social statements but it was there to promote awareness to the issue.

Twas a fabulous time and everyone was cheering on those who did the footrace in wheelchairs. Especially up the hill. The masses were cheering and encouraging and it made my heart swell with hope and pride as I cheered along with them, amazed at their determination to achieve something beyond their handicap. A very cool experience.

This has kicked out my depression that had been lingering around me the past few weeks. I even crashed out at 7:30pm last night for a well-earned night's rest. I woke up today and thought today was a beautiful day in spite of the weather and the craziness that will ensue for Fanime Con this weekend. Utterly wonderful and I am in love with this euphoria. Of course, that could be a side effect of the ibuprofen I took to help the swelling go down in my ankle/foot since I sprained it lightly yesterday while heading towards the Castro to have a nice brunch with vanae12 and other friends at the Luna cafe.

There was so much I wanted to say but I want to cling onto this feeling of life a bit more.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Wheeeeeeee.

Yes. I felt like spamming y'all today since I haven't been consistent in posting. It occurred to me that I have been remiss in greeting all new friends.

So, WELCOME to my incredibly boring journal. XD

What you need to know.

I am goofy, squeeful, lazy, bouncy, constantly curious, always moving, glomping, fangirling, busy, shut-up-the-glass-still-has-liquid-in-it sort of optimist, smart mouth, contemplating, party-er, lazy fashionista, and why-do-I-keep-volunteering-for-things-to-wear-myself-out sort of person.

Soooooo, to keep me awake while I'm at work entertained, you are all free to ask me any sort of questions. This goes for everyone on the flist. Comments may be screened to protect the modesty of others. But if you really want to know, I can always email you.


Go for it. Hit me with your best questions while I go and work on totally delayed memes. >_>;;
