boys and vaginas

last night I went to see the vagina monologues and oh-my-god i laughed so hard i almost peed my pants. if you ever get a chance to see it, if it comes to your city, you must must go. especially if you're a woman. if you haven't heard of it, its based on a series of interviews done on 200 woman by playwright eve ensler. the interviews are all about, yes, the vagina, and how women feel about it. the monologues covered every aspect of it...sex, birth, feminine products, rape, nicknames,...everything. it was funny, sad, poignant, honest. one monologue was about reclaiming the word cunt and involved the audience yelling the word out. you should've seen how hard it was to get people to actually yell it out. it took several times to get everyone to actually scream it...and afterwards...the laughter! like it was this liberating feeling or something. it was hilarious. the power of the word.

its definetly something you want to go to with a bunch of girlfriends. i went with my mom and char and her mother in law. afterwards my mom and i went to eat at yanagi sushi and had sukiyaki. its the first time she's been there and she liked it.

mom and i never done something like that, just the two of us going to see a play and then having dinner and drinks afterward. it almost seemed like we were two girlfriends or something laughing over a cocktail. i wish we could do that more often. you know, at home, even if i am 25, she's still in that "mother" mode. you know? she does all the irritating mother stuff like tell me my rooms a mess or remind me to clean up after myself, or ask me who called when my cell phone rings. but somehow, when we're in a different setting, having a couple drinks, shes like a friend and i feel more apt to tell her about things like my personal life. i mean, i won't talk to her about EVERYTHING, but i'm definetly more relaxed.

went to jarons on friday to see natural vibes...fun because more friends were with us than usual. we drank alot but didn't get drunk which is the best and some guy actually asked me to dance. i say that because usually when we go there we just end up dancing with each other. i mean, whats up with guys now days? there will be a whole dance floor full of girls dancing with themselves and these guys will just stand on the side and watch. i don't know, maybe thats the point.

anyhow, he seemed like a nice guy. he wasn't one of those guys who just get too close and we talked some while dancing. he plays drums for a local band and waits tables at a nearby restaurant. i gave him my number but now i'm regretting it a little. i just don't want to be in a relationship now. and i hope he doesn't mind that. most of the guys i meet want to be in a relationship...its so weird cause my friends are like, thats what we want! they'll get all the guys who just want to be friends and i'll get the ones who talk about marriage after a month. i wouldn't mind getting to know him better and hanging out as friends, but thats it. i am so anti-boyfriend right now.
