Just got back from seeing The Grand Budapest Hotel, then having a ham and bechamel crepe. Now, just jazz and following the Landon Donovan harassment situation.

So, I haven't been here in a while. Here's what's up with me.
1. I don't know if I'm manic or not.
2. I recently had a very scary night where I lost 6 hours and I don't know if I was somehow drugged or if I genuinely had a psychotic break.
3. I have a girlfriend now - I met her on this site and she lives about an hour away. We haven't met in person yet, but I've verified her identity and she seems more real than anyone else I've been with before.
4. My girlfriend and I are polyamorous. Yay!
5. I joined Fetlife 2 days ago and I already have a date for Tuesday (with a woman, of course).
6. On the 2nd I start an online college course I found using Coursera. It only cost me $50 and I get a verified certificate and college credit for it. I looked up the professor, and he's legit, so I'm really excited.
7. I came out as genderqueer to people in real life.
8. I became a Pure Romance consultant - which is like being an Avon lady, but with sex toys instead of makeup.
9. I really need a job before my lease runs out in August or I have to move back in with my parents.
10. My license just expired, so I need to go to the goddamn DMV soon.
It's been a roller coaster, but it's opened up a whole new world for me. For the first time in a couple of years, I don't feel depressed. I've broken free of a lot of the things that were holding me back from being myself. I've been writing creatively again and people really appreciate what I write. From my point of view, things have been scary, but overall they've had a positive impact on me.

Just had a woman come in to my store and asked if we helped with colors, and I told her we could. She then proceeds to tell me she has absolutely no clue what color she wants and wants me to pick the color for her front door. I point her over to some greens, at which point she turned to me and asked if I had any reddish greens.
......
..............
.....,.......................Do you know what you just said to me lady? Sorry that color doesn't exist dummy.

Watching the series Winter Sonata for the second time. I just finished episode two, and there's a bunch of foreshadowing in the first two episodes that I totally missed the first time through.
