.018 -- Happy Holidays! [December 22 2009]
I had plans to go see my parents for Christmas, but I'm not feeling that well, so it looks like they'll be coming here instead.

Which means I should probably do what I've been neglecting all month and wrestle out the Christmas tree. I'm failing to see how this is any easier on me.

.017 -- Birthday. [December 06 2009]
I had a very good birthday yesterday. My parents and sisters came by to see me, and brought fantastic cake. Which may not sound too exciting to some, but it's exactly the kind of day I enjoy.

I never feel any older. Not that twenty-two is that old. But I think you should at least feel a little different after your birthday. Just a little.

.016 -- So it begins... [November 17 2009]
My parents have already started in on asking what my plans are for the holiday. I guess they snuck up on me a bit this year, because I'd completely spaced on the date. Or maybe it's some elaborate mental repression, seeing as how I'm not overly fond of Thanksgiving in general. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing my family, but they're slightly overbearing.

Is there any chance I could convince you to be a new topic for discussion this year, Max?

.015 -- Sad day. [November 01 2009]
Halloween is over. Time to pack up Inara's gowns, until I get another chance to wear them. You'd be surprised how few events call for formal dresses. Or at least, events that I go to. It's sad, really. I enjoy wearing them. They make me feel pretty and confident!

Maybe I'll wear one out randomly, just to see how people react. If past events are any indication, I'm sure I'll be cornered by at least one Firefly fan who recognizes all of Inara's costumes....

.014 -- Weird. [October 22 2009]
Am I the only one that finds vibrating mascara mildly terrifying? Using that seems like asking to get poked in the eye.

.013 -- Another short trip. [October 09 2009]
It's getting chilly. No more sandals for me. It's back to boots, so my toes don't freeze.

But I did find ten dollars in my jacket pocket from last year, which is good.

By the way, Max! How do you feel about me coming to see you this week? I could use a trip out of town.

.012 -- Life goes on. [September 30 2009]
Last night, I was plagued by calls from (I'm assuming) a teenage boy who thought it was funny to dial my number, breathe heavily, and giggle before hanging up. I finally turned my phone off, so if anyone tried to call and missed me, I apologize.

On a happier note, since I hate to just post to complain, I'm successfully dating for the first time in about a year. The good stuff balances out the bad. See how that works?

.011 - Freedom! [September 20 2009]
They let me come home! Finally! I am now on my couch, devouring a bag of pretzels and sorting through my mail, and I could not be happier.

Well, I could be, but not until I get my cheeseburger in Central Park!

quick update [September 12 2009]
i'm awake. still in the hospital, but at least my eyes are open. they're not going to let me go for awhile.

what have i missed?

.010 -- Ugh. [September 07 2009]
I don't think I'm going to make it to class tomorrow. I'm not feeling very well, at all.

If anyone needs me, I'll be at home, hiding in bed.

.009 -- My life if exciting. [August 27 2009]
When I got home today, there was an oven in my living room. Which is great, since the oven in my kitchen broke last week. What would have been even better was if my landlord actually, you know, installed it. When I called to ask him about it, he said he was very busy, and that I would just have to hook it up myself if I wanted it done in the next week.

I consider this a learning experience. Hopefully, it won't be a learning experience that ends in me getting electrocuted and/or exploded.

.008 -- Welcome to Texas. [August 07 2009]
We made it, safe and sound!

So far, everything is great. I think I may have to go pick up some more tee-shirts, though. And possibly some sunscreen. I can feel my skin burning every time I go outside.

.007 -- A stern talking too... [August 01 2009]
All this war business makes me slightly uneasy. I'm not a particular fan of violence in the first place, but when you add people I know in to the mix...well, it's a recipe for unpleasantness.

Also, as shallow as it might sound, I hope the drama of the oncoming war doesn't metaphorically rain on my vacation. This was supposed to be a fun trip. If all that we do is sit around and argue about whether or not so-and-so should participate, then you're all in trouble. Deep, deep trouble.

.006 -- Home again... [July 19 2009]
So, I have left Boston. I'm back at home, in New York. But I probably won't be here for long. I think my next stop will be Washington, DC.

After that, I'll keep heading south. There are a bunch of people out there that I really want to meet.

.005 -- The first step... [July 09 2009]
Okay. I've got about an hour before my bus leaves. That's right. I'm going to Boston. That will, hopefully, be the first of many stops on my Margo Sees the Country tour. I admit, I'm more than a little nervous.

We still on for dinner, Max?

.004 -- What's going on? [July 02 2009]
This week has been...interesting. I think the heat is finally getting to people.

.003 -- The best kind of quitter... [June 20 2009]
Well, it looks like I won't be shuffling through classes this summer. I didn't register. Instead I'll be doing...something. I haven't decided what yet, though I should pick a destination before my parents catch wind of my master scheme.

So, if you were a single, twenty-four year old woman, what would you do with summer vacation?

.002 -- Not so deep thoughts... [June 11 2009]
So, I'm thinking of taking some summer classes. If I got enough hours in, I could have my degree by next year.

But for some reason, that just all sounds ridiculously boring. I just want to...go somewhere. I think it must be Inara's influence.

.001 - Introduction [June 05 2009]
I've been lurking around here for awhile, but hadn't actually gotten a chance to introduce myself. So I guess now is as good a time as ever to get that out of the way.

Hello. I'm Margo Tandy, the 'reincarnate' of Firefly's Inara Serra. Before you ask, no, I do not have sex for money. I'm a college student who paints in her free times. Inara and I may share some similarities, but occupation is not one of them.

I guess...that's all for now. I may have something more interesting to say later.

We’re all running from something, I suppose. )
