Well I switched icons for awhile. This is JRM and was made my rougevelvet and um well I like it. So sad everytime I see him I'm all "Brian Slade!" It's scary, somedays I can feel myself turning into more of a fangirl.
Am going back to church tomorrow to make my Grandma happy. I have to wash a sweater tomorrow because I forgot to do it today and so I'm not sure when I'm going to do that. Tomorrow I have to run some cookies up to work because they're having a baby shower for one of our Ass. Managers. She's having her third child. She's a sweetheart and a very hard worker. I also have a family x-mas party tomorrow at the same time. So I'm not sure when I'm going to have time to wash this sweater, but it needs to get done seeing as its not mine.
Yesterday I was really kinda out of it and forgot my work shoes (ended up working in my tennis shoes) and my own sweater. (We use to have this communial coat that anyone who worked drive-thru wore until I asked the GM to buy my a sweater and offered to pay for it myself. The district manager though that was a good idea and got everyone who works drive-thru regulary sweaters) So anyway I forgot mine, but didn't have to work drive-thru until Justin left. The manager that is mean to me tried to give me drive-thru as soon as I walked in, but he stuck up for me and said no he wanted to do it, even though I know he'd have rather gone on line. So I didn't get drive-thru till 8 pm when Justin left. Justin let me borrow his sweater so I offered to wash it for him and he said that'd be great and thanks. He also wants me to find him some Placebo CD's because I gave him a ride home the day ealier and had Black Market Music playing and he loved it. ER yeah, back to work. I also earned three stickers yesterday. Kelly and Callie started this chart for achievement and whoever has the most stickers at the end of the week gets a piece of flare. My brother won the first week and got a taco bell pin which he's proudly stuck into his hat. You get the stickers by doing anything beyone what your suppose to do. I earned two techinically, but as Jen was walking out she said she'd give me another one when she came in the next day. It makes me feel like I'm back in grade school.
Also I'm not looking forward to my family party tomorrow. I was until yesterday. Yesterday I was talking with my mom about the thing with my ex-girlfriend and her best friend which is kinda a legal matter so I'm not going to get into it at this point. She mentioned that she told her family what's going on in case it ended up in the papers and why it would end up in the papers is beyone me seeing as it something that happen years ago and oh god can I just say I hope not. We also haven't told the Grandma that I live with and if she was really concerned it was going to end up in the papers I don't know why we wouldn't have told this Grandma because she does read the paper daily. My thinking is that she just needed to vent and my father wasn't there for her to stress to cause he's on a business trip so she told them. When I asked her what she told them she simply repeated that she told them what's going on. So I don't know what she told them, but I'm not 'out' to her family because her and father requested that I didn't tell them. So I think she probably just told them what's going on and that she was a friend not a girl I was in love with and dated. Or maybe she did. Most of the family is more religious, christian where my parents and brother are Wiccan (which my parents haven't told my mom's side of the family either, that's suppose to be a big secret) The Aunt hosting the party is Catholic. Since I don't know what was said and she wasn't going to elaborate I'm freaking out. I mean I'm pretty sure she didn't 'out' me to her family because she doesn't really accept that I'm a lesbian yet, but I just don't know and the not knowing is eating away at my calm.
On a more happy note I decided to go support gay cinema and went and saw Alexander. One of the other reason I wanted to go see it was because Jonathan Rhys Meyers is in it. Well on my way in one of the guys I role play with at college was working and he spotted me and said hey. I walked over and we talked, ended up telling him what movie I was seeing and he said that one of his friends said it was really gay. I was all 'oh that's good.' He was kinda thrown by that, but laughed it off and mentioned that some of his friends are gay, reaffirmed that he was straight. So I told him that's cool, several of my friends are straight. He shook his head at me smiling and then the conversation moved onto role playing ( we do Vampire the Masquerade). I left the last game early because I started to fall asleep so he caught me up on what I missed.
I liked it, honestly. There were a few big battle scene, which normally I'm not that into, but they weren't too gory. Felt more gay then bi even though his one sex scene was with a woman they kept stressing his love for men throughout the entire movie. Also felt like they were doing a bit of a Freudian interuptation of his relationship with his mother (think the Mel Gibson version of Hamlet and you know what I mean), but it didn't throw me that badly. Jonathan Rhys Meyers didn't have many lines, but he was there in a lot of the scenes and his character was integral to the plot. Loved the slash of course. Everytime it got kinda tense between the two guys and you're going 'would you two just make out already' they would pull each other into an embrace and they readily amitted that they loved one another. Actually his first wife throws a fit when she relizes Alexander is in love with him, kinda reminded me of the section in The Picture of Dorian Gray when Lord Henry's wife is questioning Dorian. Also had me remembering De-Lovely with Ashley Judd, I really liked the way her char handled her husband's bi-ness. All in all the film was worth the price I paide to go see it and if I can get it when it comes out on video I will.
Here's a pretty quote about Alexander, which was really the only good part of the article. Snitched it from fanforum's slash thread. http://www.ew.com/ew/report/0,6115,785227_10_0_,00.html It's stupid, bigotry is bigorty whether its against gay or bi's, but anyway lets look at the pretty quote:
As for Alexander's closest companion, Hephaistion (Jared Leto), Stone shows them embracing and exchanging long, meaningful glances but stops short of depicting them as lovers. Farrell recently acknowledged to EW that the filmmakers shied away from making Alexander's sexuality more blatant for fear of alienating homophobic moviegoers. ''In an ideal world we could have and would have shot the movie with [more graphic] stuff in it,'' he said.
