it was 6,000 degrees today. working outside today was quite draining. i was wheezing while standing still. i’m jealous of all of you with your jobs with the AC and the water cooler and the office gossip and the wacky coworkers and the lounge with the soda and snack machines and the internet and the free telephone and the sneaking of internet porn and the harsh but loving boss with the constantly rumpled shirt and tie.

my job is pretty sweet sometimes though. like yesterday and today i saw brown recluse spiders. they’re a lot bigger than i thought they were. i thought they were smallish with short legs. nay!

i hate working outside in the nature.

we watched Sarah Silverman’s Jesus is Magic special this evening. it was really funny. i don’t know how she can say all those things with a completely straight face. speaking of “straight” faces…

then i watched Rent by myself because jimmy was afraid he’d hear the pretty songs and like them. it’s a good movie, but it’s kind of like watching the gayest episode of Law and Order ever. i’ve never watched an episode of Law and Order but i have seen bits and pieces of eps over at liznchris’s house because it is ALWAYS ON AT THEIR HOUSE. honestly, it’s always on. i don’t even have to exaggerate. they couldn’t and wouldn’t deny it.

anyway, i think every one of the cast is either on or guest starred on Law and Order. so liz, you guys should rent Rent and watch your favorite lawyers be gay and sing about love.

the characters were all right, but the Rock and Roll Guy, he….his voice…maybe it was just him but, i didn’t care for him or his voice. he kind of had this Bon Jovi thing…but i’m sorry, no. oh, and it took me way too long to figure out he had AIDS. not that it was a secret at all. it was just one of those things i hadn’t really thought about until the other girl was all, “AZT break!” and i was all, “what? isn’t that for AIDS? oh…she has AIDS.” and then he looked relieved and i thought, “OH! he had AIDS and that’s why he was being a dick. i see. well how nice for them to both have AIDS so they can now date each other.” see, when he was singing “i should tell her…” blah blah blah, i thought he meant he should tell her that his last girlfriend was hooked on smack and died. i missed the AIDS thing. me? an unobservant idiot? why, yes!

Taye Diggs doesn’t play a big part…but he is really hot. reow.

words to describe this movie would be: fun! songy. sweet. love.  sad. sadder. sweet sad. artists. citylife. AIDS.
