the most ginormous you've seen!

i have had an interesting weekend so far... with lot of tired. it's been SO HOT in my room lately that my shampoo has melted... whaaa? it's of the consistency of melted honey at the time. because it is SO HOT in my room. maryam might give me a fan to put in the window and bring some air in and hopefully cool it down a bit.

anyhow, i went to herald square (seriously, i've yet to not think of a song... yesterday was "give my regards to broadway, remember me to herald square!" and i didn't mention that when i was down in washington square on thursday,i passed waverly and started singing "i met a boy called frank mills on september 12 right here, in front of the waverly, but unfortunately, i lost his address...") to go to school products, as recommended by the wunnerful jess of fig and plum. there, i bought some supplies for mariah. then, i hopped on the subway and went to brooklyn to go to target - seriously, i've been going into every store i've seen for the past 9 days looking for hangers, and got sick of looking for them, so i went to brooklyn to a place i knew would have them and also got a slacks hanger (or "slacks rack" as it was called), a pair of white work pants, some yoga clothes and a yoga mat. yes, i've found where i'm going to do yoga. i will go tonight at 6 pm...if i get my paper on venezuelan hemorrhagic fever finished... unlikely... :(

anyhow, from there, i went home and pounded some sudafed (for the sinus headache i've been cooking for a few days) and had a little rest before leaving to meet with the maryam. i met her and her friend jessica at the reebok sports club (m. works in the salon there) and we walked to dive 75 on 75th street (like atomic cowboy in that it has board games but not in that it's an old world pub) and later to big nick's for nosh... it was fun, and THEN, here's the really good part,

we saw charlie and the chocolate factory at the imax.

how much bigger could johnny depp be? not much. and he's so darn pretty, too! anyhow, the movie was AMAZING, he was funny and weird and quirky (his dancing to the oompa loompas never stopped being really funny), and it's the best tim burton movie i've seen in ages... i had this ridiculously goofy grin on my face the whole time! tim burton and roald dahl were meant for each other... he should do the witches and b.f.g.s too.

and the event reminded me of the first time i saw edward scissorhands in san diego with my sister and my fred... fred was very very sick. and because of the sinus pressure and the ginormosity of the screen, there was a point where i almost had to leap over a thousand people to barf. but i didn't because i wanted to see the movie so badly... so i powered through it and willed myself not to barf.

yay!
