Day 80

First draft of e-mail to the guy I met at work the other day:

Stuart,

It was nice to meet you the other day. If you still want to have coffee tomorrow I am game. I must say now though, in an effort to make my intentions clear, it is best to think of me in strictly friendly terms.  While you seem awesome, I am an unconventional gal who isn't fond of expectations, relationships, and gooey, mushy emotions in general. Let me know if you want to hang out, otherwise don't feel obligated to message back. Thanks!

Nella

Hits all the main points, I think.


I will work on it.



So, I watched the series finale of Big Love this morning and cried lots of unexpected tears over it. They creators knew they would be tugging on a lot of heartstrings by playing God Only Knows (the first opening theme of the show) during the last scene. I mean, aside from what happened, that song really got my ugly cry going. Probably the best ending that could have happened for a show that had been suffering a lot of lumps since their awesome third season that seems to be most fans' favorite.

I also finished the anime Revolutionary Girl Utena. What a mind fuck that was. Dude...I was "what the fucking" all over the place and the ending didn't help. Nor did reading up on interpretations either. And definitely not watching the movie that seemed to only be a retelling of the story in a condensed, hyper-lesbian, less character based way. I am going to forget the movie exists minus the pretty art and animation that was far better than the show.
