Seeing the Necromancer

So a good night sleep does wonders, just ask Eminem (kidding - I just read he is in rehab for sleep medication and I couldn't resist!). What I mean is, I am back in the groove and feeling better today. Yay!

I bought my new toilet last night, but for now it is sitting in my living room. The floor guy is coming on Wednesday, and since he will have to take the toilet out anyway, my neighbor said there is no sense installing the new one yet. Thankfully, it is still in the boxes, so it's not like I have a put-together toilet sitting next to my couch. I briefly spoke to Roxy last night, apparently she is having such a good time she can't be bothered with idle chit-chat. And my friend says she is being an absolute angel. This always amazes me, because I know she is a good kid and all, but apparently she is EXTRA good whenever I am not around. I think she does this so that when I tell people about her mouthing off or her attitude, they won't believe me. I really do.

So tonight I am going out with my way-cool 22 year old cousin. If I were to try to tell you all the amazing things she has already done with her life, it would take me the rest of the day. Suffice it to say, she is smart, pretty and an all around good kid. She is in town for a visit until she starts her job at the Miami Herald. How cool is that?? So I got us tickets to see this necromancer at Excalibur. Excalibur is this HUGE club in downtown Chicago that I have been to exactly once, on my 21st birthday. From what I remember, it was pretty intense. So I am a little nervous about going there, what with all the young hip people and all. Then again, I myself am pretty darn hip, so who knows? I figure we'll see this guy, and depending on the crowd (and the drink prices) maybe stay for a while after and just socialize.

I am also getting my hair cut and colored today before I go. By a new stylist. Who was recommended by the girl that tries to kill me on a daily basis at Curves. She claims that this girl is REALLY GOOD and will make my hair look awesome, I told her that she'd better be, or I was coming back for her. Especially since I am going out and won't have time to try to fix it if it looks stupid. I am actually looking forward to being out in a different setting tonight, something outside of my comfort zone, if you will. I tend to stay away from big clubs, for obvious reasons, but I think tonight will be fun. First because we really aren't even going for the club scene per se, and second because I have absolutely no expectations. Which is when things tend to happen. But now that I said that, they probably won't. Although now that I think they probably won't, they probably will. Oh, hell, we'll see, won't we?

Ok, I am really curious at this point to know how many of you read the word "necromancer" above and actually knew what it meant. I deliberately didn't explain it because I thought it would be funny to let people just be like "???" for a while. But since that is also not nice, I will now tell you that a necromancer is a kind of psychic, a spiritualist, a mind reader of sorts. This guy is apparently pretty famous and his show is interactive and sounds pretty interesting. I just hope he doesn't delve TOO far into my mind, because we all know what a scary place that is!!

Anyway, it is also the last day of Satan's vacation. Which means that I will have to start doing real work again on Monday. Thankfully, I have mastered the art of pretending to work while I am actually blogging, so this change won't affect you all that much. And just so you know - busy work all done. I do have a few other loose ends to tie up before I leave here today though (early - for my hair - remember?) so I'd best go. I know I wasn't all that exciting today, sorry. But I'm sure by Monday I'll have a lot more to say.
