I had a lot of fun today.

I saw Margaret Cho and Dirty Martini and Liliam Sullivan as Kelly, and several other burlesque acts in Margaret's off-Broadway revue. It was a solid 2 hours that flew by. I also bought clothes that I am uncertain I can afford.

Home now. Sleep soon. Waking up after that.

Simba: What was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn't matter, it's in the past.
Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Rafiki: Yes, the past can hurt, but the way I see it, you either run from it, or learn from it. (swings his stick at Simba again who ducks out of the way) Ah! You See? So what are you going to do?

Matt and I had a very honest, occasionally difficult, talk this morning from about quarter past midnight til about quarter to 5. Even though I slept for fewer than four hours, I think it was some of the most calm sleep I've had recently.
