I'm preparing to ride my bike to work today. Wish me luck.

Green Lantern was ok. Ryan Reynolds was amazing. (of course).

The movie itself was ok. 

Was I glad I saw it?   Yes.
Was it worth the price for 3D?   For Ryan Reynolds alone - yes.
Would I see it again?   Probably not.  

I'm seeing the Green Lantern tonight in 3D. 

I am so excited.

It's also going to be my first date with a girl since high school - so that will be exciting too.

(It's not a "real" date. I haven't attended any special camps.)

It's time to get seriously serious about working out. I set my alarm for 6:30a this morning to give myself enough time for a bike ride - maybe even bike into work. But all I did was wake up and reset the alarm for the normal time. 

I need to get motivated - and fast. 

Any suggestions?

I can't think of a better way to spend a Thursday night than watching period dramas on Netflix and crocheting? 

Here are a few scarves I was able to finish. Sure it's officially summer now. And sure I may or may not have started two of the above pictured scarves nearly six months ago - but who's really paying attention to that stuff? 

I am still on the cusp of a cold. I have a sore throat and a cough - but that's about it. Sexy. I know.

One of my friends let me borrow her hair straightener - so I tried it this morning. I did a poor job of it. I'll have to get someone to help me from now on - or practice. I guess I could practice. But what a strange thing to practice. 

Also, just so you know - I always wear my wallet in the left-side back pocket of my pants. However, today, the pants I'm wearing don't have a left-side back pocket - so I have to wear my wallet on the right - and that will bug me all day long.

See how hard my life is? I can't straighten my own hair OR wear my wallet the way I want to. 

And if this is what I have to talk about on here - just wait until we go on a date! Wow. I am the LIFE of the party.

Alright, so that was sarcasm because my life isn't as exciting as it could be. Which is why I'm going SKYDIVING in AUGUST!!!   YOW!!!

I love the feeling of getting laundry done. I hate doing it - and I hate putting it away (folding is so over-rated). But I love the feeling of getting it done... if only that feeling was easier to achieve. 

Well, I didn't get a solo in this upcoming concert - but that's ok. I'm totally fine with it. I was just auditioning for the joy of auditioning anyway. Would it have been nice? Yes. Was it necessary? No. I'm still so amazed and grateful that I am part of the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles at all - I don't need to worry myself over a solo. 

In other news - the Cuddlers have a performance coming up later in the week that will be nice. It's for a memorial service - so while it's not exactly "nice" that we are there - it's nice that they felt we were worthy of a very solemn and personal ceremony. 

And finally - I think I'm getting sick. I have had a scratchy throat for about three days - and today it progressed into a cough and the headache got a bit worse. I'm sure I'm being a slight pansy - but I don't feel 100% and that sucks.

Tomorrow's a big day for New York State - let's see if their senators pull through on the marriage equality vote.

Tonight at rehearsal, I find out if I got a solo for the upcoming show or not - I'm not holding my breath - as I said before with the auditions, I'm just happy to get out there and try because it makes me nervous - and the more I do it, the less it will make me nervous... right? 

So, I find out tonight - but either way I'm happy.

Dear Inventor of The Margarita,

Can we make out? Because I feel like I owe you one...
