i'm exhausted, exhilirated, stressed out, angry, depressed, relieved. sometimes from one to the other, sometimes all at the same time. clearly, i have the holiday spirit.

and yes, readers, i'm undergoing a separation. i already found a new apartment and i'm gonna have to move in a couple of weeks. it's too new and i'm still not sure how i feel about it. i'm too emotional right now to know how i really feel about anything at the moment. the only thing i've been enthusiastic about this week is watching cable in the middle of the day at my brother's apartment.

well, that and the glowlab holiday party last night. i planned a game/performance for the party and it came off really well. i set up an elaborate chain of secret agents which party guests would have to consult in turn in order to get to the party, as if they were attending a rave in LA circa 1995. i stood in the subway station dressed as a secret agent, waiting for party guests and handing out directions to the minimall in exchange for a snapshot (or in some cases, a collage or a napkin-back drawing). my brother was waiting in the minimall and gave out directions to the luckycat cafe. holly at the luckycat handed out directions to the final location, and stacie and chris greeted the revellers at the bar. people seemed to enjoy the playful spirit we brought to the event. i received a lot of compliments on the game, and i'm anxious to plan another glowlab event.

there were lots of cute boys and girls at the party, and i did my best to flirt with all of them. but mostly i stood around with my girlfriends, smoking cigarettes and sipping scotch, talking about boys and shoes and bitchy girls and work and friends and enemies and who needs to get laid. the more things change, the more they stay the same.
