Life Update

So I had this big plan to visit my boyfriend in Los Angeles for my birthday this week, and he was planning on throwing a big party in my honor for all my friends who live there and could make it.

Well, unfortunately that isn't going to happen.  My boyfriend and I broke up last week.  I guess in some regards it was inevitable, and the long-distance thing was getting kind of old since the relationship was truly stuck in the water with nowhere to go.  In some ways I'm sorely disappointed that it didn't work out, because when I moved here he seemed so sure we could make it work and I really felt like I put everything I could into making it a good relationship.  But in others I'm a bit relieved, since I now know things about my ex that I didn't know, and those things make me think I can find someone who would be a better fit for me.

Even so, it kind of sucks that I have to be here for my birthday.  But I'm going to try my darnedest to make lemonade out of these lemons!  I'm still going to take the day off and I'm going to go get a massage and facial.  I also found a show that I want to go see, so I think it will turn into a nice birthday after all.  Plus there's lots of dancing this coming weekend and I always have a good time with that.  One of the dances is at Bodega Wine Bar, so I'm going to invite some people I've met here for that, since you don't have to know how to dance to watch and Bodega is just an awesome place to hang out.

  1. Oh Boy. Some of your post was hard for me to read. :( The news isn't good news, but I'm glad you're making lemonade. I hope you have a good birthday. What show are you going to?

  2. I had a nice birthday!

    I went to see "Casablanca" at the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. They played the movie and then the orchestra played the score of the film with the film. It was really a neat event and the music really accentuated the emotion of many scenes.
