Lorange Blog

I want one. Corey has one. I'm jealous. I hate Corey. I'm gonna kill Corey now. edit: I still like my mix CDs better.

I'm in love with the song "Most Sundays" by Margo Lee The live version of Mr Roboto that Midway is playing. See their profile for a listen. It starts off rough (1st public performance of the song) but gets so much better. In the car, listening to The Clash album Sandinista! I hate: Going home already feeling out of sorts about life, relationships etc, and seeing the flashback episode of Friends . (the episode where Ross debates sending Rachel the wedding invitation) Already the show was brought up twice earlier at work...just can't get away from it. Hate it, love it. hate the ross-rachel thing, but relating to it perfectly. Missing: Kaitlyn and Jacob. Eat: The Hat ...also the free samples at Costco in Los Feliz/Atwater

Lorange is a term I coined to be the opposite of limerence. ( wikipedia definition Limerence is that initial period of a relationship (the first few weeks or months) where you see your limerent partner in near perfect terms. You have gone past the initial awkwardness in the beginning of your relationship, and now work, sleep, and friends are just blocks in the way of togetherness. This is different from Infatuation which is more like the unrealistic ideals of puppy love - immature and based on limited information about the person of desire. For additional clarification, Love comes after the period of limerence when you start to accept the faults and imperfections of you significant other and still want to be with them. When love breaks down, a new period I call Lorange sets in, which is basically the drawn out end of a dying relationship. It is the state of knowing that regardless of best intentions, or of how much one cares for each other, one or both members of the relationship will ...

Sleepy after seeing Fuck Bunny , Midway , and the Knives , which were very cool. I saw this on my way to work this morning, but couldn't tell if Willis was driving it himself.

Midway is playing at Kiss or Kill which makes me happy. Wrote a bunch this weekend and thought out a possible idea for a video for this song I love.

and my day sucks. Woke up an hour late, but still had time to get ready and leave on time. My reflection in the mirror returned sulken eyes. Slept fine but the opposite appeared. Searched hoplessly for a paticular shirt, settled for one I wear too much. Depressed over lack of new funds to buy new clothes. Found the coffee maker ready to brew, but I forgotten to set the timer. Left one time and realized I needed gas, so made a combined stop at Arco for gas, 44 oz Pepsi, and a sausage biscuit. The biscuit wasn't very good, so I went to McDonalds and got a real one. Wasted more time wasted a couple of dollars. Traffic sucked and was 15 minutes late instead of 15 minutes early.

so I will write what I want. I feel rejected today. Actually the last couple weeks have been like this.

Don't watch Woo the movie if it comes on tv. Ok had a good and busy weekend compared to the ones where I sit curled up in the fetal position crying. Ok for the record I haven't done that yet in my life. So I get home from work, P shows up with a six pack of Sam Adams Light and we start drinking whilst we wait for CO and G to show up. Being LA on a friday night, their 40 mile drive took them close to two hours to complete. The freeways were all messed up, esp. the drive out to Vegas while a 2 car/ 2 semi crash that f**ked the whole freeway system up. So a few beers later they make it, and we decide the bar at Claim Jumper would be right for food and drinks. Yum to nachos, combo appetizers, and a couple picthers of hefenwiezen and finished by 10.30. Next comes a short drive to Fullerton , we walk into The Continental Room, and then walk out. Too many lame people...off to the Stadium Tavern for a couple more picthers and my first Irish Car Bomb . As we leave, this gir...

Oh my fever went away, so Thursday was about getting my once every two months haircut, shopping at Target, and cleaning my house. Sonia posted a blog about a blog written by an ex of hers. She starts off with this remark _ 'Yeah, so, I got this e-mail from an ex-boyfriend the other day. I'm one of those weirdo girls who is friends with a lot of her exes. One of my old boyfriends lives next door and is married to my best friend.' _ . This is funny for two reasons: First no-one understands how I (like Sonia) can have ex's as friends. Secondly, her neighbor is also my ex-wife's ex-boyfriend, and his wife is my ex-girlfriend. My old Festival days, a book and a mini-series could be made with the drama that happened there. Very much Melrose Place episodes, but this group of friends has remain on good terms over the last ten years.

argh. I feel a fever coming on - which is never good. My friend P is coming down on his way to see the grand-toads in Palm Springs this Friday. Should be fun if CO gets off from work that night, maybe we'll try to see New Maximum Donkey at MR T's Bowl ...a fun, dumpy old converted bowling alley in Highland Park. The stage is built over the lanes, with all the hardware still intact. I glad no-one reads this. I have nothing interesting to say. Listening to: Girl with a monkey from Sweden. not good - not really bad Watched two episodes of 24 last night at CB's new orange apartment. Had fun, had a talk, had triscuits.

Finally. After three days without power at work, I'm back online. Sadly I've forgotten everything I thought about writing on here. I swear they were USDA choice cuts of writing. Work consisted of one three hour meeting about our booth at expowest . Three weeks and counting.

I managed to post three or four times today on craigslist. Time to go home.

yum taco bell for lunch. I wish I can get paid to this. Come to think of it I am.

Still tired. Came home last night @ 6 and crashed on the couch. Getting up long enough for a little bit of American Idol before rolling into bed. I hate being so tired all the time. Work once was only two miles away, but now I commute at least a hour each way. A hour and a half drive is normal coming home. And it sounds a little like this: 110 to the 105 to the 605 to the 60 or 110 to the 91 to 57 to the 60. I've managed to find multiple city routes so it usually works out 50/50 freeway/streets. Wanted to see Midway at Café-Club Fais Do-Do , but I was tired and it was for a Howard Dean fundraiser, so there was no real point in going. He still might have a chance, but Kerry's hair is plowing through the polls. I look foward to this weekend when J+K come over. I'm so glad I'm not helping CB move into her new apartment.....I would help if I could of course, but I just spent last weekend painting the new place orange. Yes orange.. well actually Marmalade,...

I managed to crawl out of bed this morning with only three hours of sleep. Went and saw The Randies , Bang Sugar Bang , and The Dollyrots at Zen Sushi (Silverlake, CA) last night. Third time at Zen, and I haven't seen it this packed before. I imagine the air play the randies have been getting on KROQ lately had something to do with it. The DJ stryker (from KROQ) was suppose to be there and I think I saw him all prettied up, but could be wrong. Over the last couple months, I've met a couple members of the randies and can safely say they deserve all the success thrown at them. I'm happy to report that the crowd was 60/40 on the guy-girl ratio. Better than previous randie shows. Also Bang Sugar Bang...why aren't they signed yet. Seriously. The Dollyrots....full of spunk, and yes, Kelly really does have a high voice.
