...In which our heroine does a happy dance.

It is a glorious day. Why, ask you humble readers? MY HORRIBLE ROOMMATE MOVED OUT. She is gone, all that was left was her trash around the room, which I picked or vacuumed up as soon as the last load of her shit was gone. I've already re-arranged and re-decorated the place, but in such a way that even if I get a new roommate it won't be an issue. In a last act of defiance, Baby Girl, as we oh so lovingly called her ripped my nametag on the door off and scattered it in the hallway. I deleted her from Facebook - it's official, and I couldn't be happier.

Also: Nine pages of a screenplay written. Bus tickets bought for both My Morning Jacket in Columbus, and my return to the nasty, from March 21-26th - don't worry, there is plenty of time to mark your calendars. Made the prettiest lasagna known to man tonight. Ate a row of Samoas and didn't feel bad about it. Drank Funky Llama wine, discovered it's a bad mix with PBR. Pictures of Quentin, Jean Grey, and Princess Leia up on the wall. Bought 3 dresses in the past week, including the most beautiful garment I've ever put on my body (for another day). Want: Sofia Coppola's canned pink sparkling wine, a new TV, a fella with a beard (or my crush to notice me), moleskin notebooks like Mr. John Hughes, and warmth.
