Wow, this sucks.

To live as thus
I've grown up with my identity being 95% based on my religion. A religion, as it would seem, that has become a ginormous mystery to me. I've grown up incredibly confused, religon-wise. Honestly, my religion followed that of my parents...and whatever stakes they put down as to 'WHAT' we were. This I embraced wholly because of the way in which I was raised--this came first. The ministry comes first. And while those larger ideas were all great, I eventually lost passion for it because IT WASN'T MINE. And I knew this all along.
I lost a passion for it when I was old enough to start really applying it to life---and what would life be like without tragedy, ey? This 'religion' I was affiliated with and moi slammed into a brick wall in high school --with the appropriate mini-tragedies that follow suit.
When I could NO LONGER apply what had been a part of my life to such situations, I fell into a proverbial pit of despair. People closest to me were suffering, and I had lost all words of comfort--because what I WAS could no longer be applied. My 'talents' were useless. In their last leg of trying to appear 'normal,' their true selves were unmasked. 17 years. In their truth, my lack of sincerity in belief was revealed for all to see.
However, I haven't been stripped clean of such beliefs--pieces remain that I truly hold onto--whether for the sake of tradition (as I know it), or because I see genuine truth in what they are. Its as if I dreamed of mountains upon mountains of treasure...and have awoken with a single gold coin in my hand.
All of this haunts me...

Brighter than Sunshine
Damn it, I love Aqualung so much. Brighter than Sunshine...this song will be playing during my wedding montage. This sounds SICK and SAD, but its true. Just listen to it, and you will freakin KNOW.
Matisyahu WILL take over the world, and I cannot wait for this.
Today I love: online banking. Yep. I made car payments and credit card payments in my UNDERWEAR...on CHRISTMAS. Fuckin a, people!
Allison---guess who called me last night??? YEP. NOT kidding. Call me when you want details.

I'm yours and certainly you're mine...
So Aqualung is being released in the US in January. Number ONE, I'm glad I won't have to pay for an IMPORT, but I am PISSED at the fact that douchey, mtv people are going to start loving this man. BITCHES.
Matt called last night, and that was fabulous. He's in Birmingham with the fam for the holiday.
For the holiday, of course. So at work we have to post EVERY single Christmas card we receive, and I have taken sick pleasure in throwing the ones away we've gotten this week. Not kidding.
I have an odd but serious desire to watch ENCINO MAN. Not later. Not tomorrow. RIGHT NOW.
Willy Wonka.

David Fincher
My guts are officially fucked. Tried eating some chicken and rice crap, but it most definitely did NOT hit the spot. Ugh.
I think I'm going to throw on a hat and head down to Parker to pick up the rest of my crap from the rent's house.
I feel as though I am not living my own life right now...but watching it, instead. Its as if I don't have to hold myself accountable for anything, almost. Granted, I do what I should: work, pay bills, etc. But I definitely feel like I am operating on auto-pilot...the real me is watching all of this happen from the sidelines. Its as though I ACT first, and then I can make the appropriate commentary post-action...
Eh.
ISO real food...

*insert obligatory hug here*
Snow Patrol is fabulous. ALSO---So excited about Aqualung FINALLY releasing his record in the US this year. If he gets on MTV, I WILL BE PISSED BEYOND BELIEF.
Shopping will Allison last night--found my holiday party dress within the first 20 minutes we were at the mall. Allison's dress for Doug's b-day is STRIKING. Knock 'em dead.
Date with Andy tonight--we'll see how this goes. We're thinking good things, in general.
I need to clean out my car. This afternoon it WILL happen.
Launch the lunch...

Never gonna stop
What up, people? Today was HARSH. Was up way too late last night for the *last night of Hanukkah* festivities. The parents bought me a big tube for my apartment--as opposed to the 13-incher I was sportin from my dorm days. SO SAD. Now I'm livin up-sty-o.
I strained my left calf BIG time on Monday for my non-Allison workout. See what you made me DO, ALLISON?!? I just can't workout without ya. :) Jay kay. Speaking of, Allison received the best *boyfriend* gifts this year thus far. Color me jealous, and just NOT as moisturized.
IPSO FACTO
Missing Kyle. EXCITED about the house.
Love the phone.
Cheated a bit today on the ol' intake--damn you, See's Chocolates! I hate this season. WHAT DEMONRY!
Was asked today why my "work area" was lacking in festive-ness--i.e. devoid of any and all greenery and x-mas crap. I retorted with the whole Hanukkah thing, and the fact that I don't *do* holiday decor...followed by a hardy dirty look to wrap it all up. I think the message was received.
ANYWHO...I am hittin the hay early tonight--thinking 9:30 so I can make an early rise and jump on the treadmill pre-shower.
Goodnight, lovelies.

Trying to be where you are...
I've done this before.
Fabulous of times this weekend--way too short. Hanukkah festivities with parents on Erev. Headed over to Jon's on Sat. for Sueski's house party. Love the Volvo. Just returned this afternoon.
NOT wanting to go back to work this weekend---I could use a VaykAY.
We're getting a house this time next year...badass.
So tired.
I need to find pants.

Grand Night for Singing
Well. This weekend. Wow.
High-tailed it to Jon's post-work on Friday afternoon. HOUSE warming partaay time. Hit Safeway for mixers and some grub-wage a few hours before the rest of the crew came. All four of us split up with Jon's encrypted walkie talkies and had WAAAY too much of a good time.
"Agent Zero, this is Tech Sgt. Chen. Have we procured the tonic and limes, over."
"Tech Sgt. Chen, that's an affirmative. Are we a go with cranberry juice and Tostitos?"
Anywho, everyone else arrived circa 12-ish. And dear L-rd, people. I have NEVER consumed so much alcohol in my life. I once prided myself in the fact that I have never spewed from drinking...but this fact is no longer valid, m'afraid. I remember us playing a drinking game, then I have foggy memories of getting in Omar's car and driving to Tequilas. Omar looks exactly like Jimmy Fallon with an EMO haircut and a beard. He was wearing a Beatle-esque tight pin stripe suit, and it was pretty hot. I am not shitting you.
The rest of the story is pretty foggy, but once I was in Tequilas, I ran to the bathroom and started hurling my guts out. I just remember bits and pieces---some random chicks were wiping me off because I couldn't figure out how to turn on the bathroom sink. Anywho, after this I found Omar and we chilled until I had to ralph again. Found Jon. Then we left. We lost track of all our other people. Stopped by Safeway to nab toothpaste for Jon. Went home. Jon fell asleep on the couch. Omar and I hung out in Jon's bed until 7:30am just talking--this conversation of course mainly consisted of us discussing whether or not we should have sex. I decided against it, because:
1. I had been hurling ALL night and felt like a ball of crust, and
2. There was no way I was going to sleep with one of Jon's friends in his own bed. Hey, I can retain *some*class.
Anywho, Omar left in the early AM, then Jon woke up from the couch and came to bed. We slept off and on until 1:30pm. Around 5pm we left the house for dinner--> THE CRAPPIEST pad thai dish I have ever been served, btw. Post-coffee we came back to his place, cleaned up from the party, and worked on arranging 'Broken' until we went to bed arond 1:30. We lunched this early afternoon, and I just got home. Hoorah.
I seriously need to do laundry.
Have a date tonight with this guy--an MOT. We'll see what happens, ey?
48 HOUR JEANS!

O'DOYLE RULEZ
Snagged my FABULOUS new cell phone today at work. I am too excited. My first ringtone download: MP3 MILKSHAKE. I feel like a ghetto ho, but EH. I am what I am. :)
Heading over to Jon's tomorrow night for festivities--looking forward to it. Crossing my fingers for some hot photographer action. BWA! Poor Sue smashed her new V-dub bug. That shit is a death trap, unless you live in the desert. Ice + VW bug = NO. SUHSI!
PAYCHECK tomorrow. Casual Friday. I need to do laundRAT. *WOOT*

12 years old
Started the WALKING thang with Allison tonight. Good times.
There is nothing in this place to eat. Damn, poverty = a great diet.
Bought a cell phone. Hopefully it will arrive by Friday. Got a new number, thank G-d.
Must call Qwest tomorrow and yell.
Received a check from the anti-christ insurance company today. Too bad all of it is dad's. I could use a chunk of change...
I am completely breaking out. Travel takes it's toll.
MASSIVE HEADACHE.

Eli hasn't been to our apartment in 6 days, and wonders why I am upset about this.
Genuinely freaked out by Coast to Coast tonight.
My circulation is crap.
Getting a spankin new cell phone this weekend...prepare ye for photos up in the hizzy.
Getting glasses next week, too. Damn, I am in the 5th grade.
I left my right flip flop in Indiana. And Eli's Hanukkah present.
Who the freak is Jeff Lyons?!

My laptop will be up and running tomorrow. This blows my mind.
No apologies for the photo from yesterday. NONE.

Are we there yet?
So our trip to Evansville should have taken 15 hours. It took 21 hours, thanks to I-70 from Topeka until St. Louis it was snowing like a freaking MOFO, and there were cars sliding all over the road and into ditches. I-70 was a PARKING lot for 2 hours when a UPS semi and another car spun out right before St. Louis. I almost ate my arm off. Mom peed in a zip lock bag.
I am soooo tired.
Went to Yen Ching tonight, and the Hunan was just QUALITY. Its freaking weird being back here.
MIGRAINE.

Did today even HAPPEN?
Tell me WHYYYYYYY! Bob E. Brown
Was stuck in traffic on the way home from work tonight, bored,...listening to Fiona's "Criminal," and I started to choreograph a strip routine in my car seat. Fuck you, what else is there to do? I think last night triggered the sex pot that has been dormant for 3 weeks. *muahahahah* She's back.
I don't know where today went. I say this often, but I seriously mean it. It was 7am about 5 minutes ago. Granted, I worked--had tons of shit to do, but I think I was zoned out the entire time.
EH.
Leaving for freaking EVANSVILLE tomorrow night. Still blows my mind.
I miss Joni--girls night next week, babaaay!
Bagel.

To all those who hear me all too well...
Uno, tres...
This weekend has been kicking royal ass. Good times all around. Jon and his father came up after work on Friday with moi unt Allison. We toured the Pulitzer Prize Photograph Show -->phenom. Post-show we dined at Bucca, and wow. The food had never tasted better. Jon and Paul headed back to the Springs while Allison and moi went to some bar I can't remember that was off of Colfax until we drank enough to be warm on the way home. *yay*
Just got back from seeing the INCREDIBLES with Joey. Nice kid. The movie was cool, but 80 thousand kids running around and crap previews = not cool.
Jon has been saying that we need to get together and work on some music--which is right on. I'm working on getting something of a repertoire going on--thinking about Ain't Misbehavin and Baby, Its Cold Outside. Damn, I love these tunes. Reminds me of singing during the holidays with concert choir. GHETTO.
Although I'm not keen about driving in the shit, there's nothing more beautiful than the city in the snow.
Just me and my radio---
Chris, NEXT WEEK.
Tomorrow Seth is making me dinner. Yay first dates. We'll see how this goes.

Something wrong inside it...
Kyle. This time next year. The beginning.
"WE WERE BABIES"
Garth Cheek. Dodge Caravan. PRE-CALCULUS.
My hair needs a trim. Start afresh. Baja FRESH.
I'm watching the end of the AMA's because of the lost Beatle footage. CLASS. All the Capitol records are being re-released in STEREO.
As long as we're together...
Wes Hoffman, dude...seriously. I need my Hedwig DVD back, BIOTCH. Boulder people annoy me.
Gwen Stefani's newest vid kicks my ass, I love it so much.
Tap classes = soon. *excited*
Kyle. This time next year. The beginning.
"WE WERE BABIES"
Garth Cheek. Dodge Caravan. PRE-CALCULUS.
My hair needs a trim. Start afresh. Baja FRESH.
I'm watching the end of the AMA's because of the lost Beatle footage. CLASS. All the Capitol records are being re-released in STEREO.

Meet me in December
Things that I LOVE right now:
Work is going fabuloso. I love my people. Love the sweet ass benefits. YAY real jobs, people. GROWING UP.
Love being single. *sings* FREEEDOM! Damn, I love having options.
Love the friends--as bizarre and ass-backwards as we all are. Can I get a YAY for crazy relationships? I won't even touch that with a 10 foot pole.
Love the fact that I am going to see my fam and Chris in a matter of weeks.
I'm healthy, minus the weird back pain--but LOVE my CU football player chiro. DAMN, can I get weekly appointments? Pretty please?
Wes and Sil came out last night to hang...they left this morning. Cute kids. Newlyweds. I don't understand the anti-bagel thing, but eh.
It seems as though my friends out here are the complete opposite of myself, save a few choice personality quirks--my relationships seem to thrive more. Granted, we're not just talking about the bagel issue. We enjoy our time spent with each other, but I can't spend more than a few nights a week together before I get annoyed. Its all about the moderation, folks. Strangely I treasure these people more. Instead of having everything in common, we have a finite, specific something that draws us together. Maybe we're drawn together for our strong personalities, or the fact that we all suffer from some bizarre disorder, are easily annoyed, or enjoy being the center of attention. When we work, we WORK. But space is definitely needed. EH. I am so talking in circles here. We're all the same folk.
My focus is on the wane. Although I am feeling disorganized in some parts of my life--> unpacked boxes, sorting, the lack of washer fluid in my car, etc. BLAH. This month is somewhat overwhelming, or I am just one lazy assed mothah-fuckah. Or both.
CEREAL FETISH.
I miss you, Kyle.
Can you not clean a DISH?!

Chapped lips + buffalo wings = NO

Thou givest fever
Tonight was grand--dinnered in LoDo with Wes unt Silvia at this awesome Peruvian restaurant. People---if you're into the cilantro, you MUST try the arroz con pollo. Fab dish. I would hold off on the Ink Cola, unless you like a bizarre bubble gum/vanilla yellow fizzy drink. Youch.
They are coming to stay with me next weekend down from Estes, so good times will be had.
Went shopping this afternoon---people just need to STAY home. Bought some new jeans...something I could probably live without right now. But what should I expect? Feast or famine out there...
I need new bed linens--and yes, it was a headache finding the bohemian/bindi flavored one I have, but I am still lusting after the Tommy grommet set I was drooling over a few months ago. ALSO need the pillow-top mattress...you were right, Jon. I can't go back. :)
Work tomorrow. The excitement is gone, much like anything I do after 2-ish months. :)
Must leave. Adios.

Bizarre Dreams
While I was shabbat napping today, I dreamed of being involved with a drag queen theatre. William Shatner was the director...I was actually in the production wearning a PIRATE WENCH outfit. Eh. Not as exciting as I thought.
Last night was grand. Went to a "Passion" party with yuppie women and it felt like a scene from desperate housewives: a ton of us running across the suburban street, glasses of wine in hand, and in pointy-toed heels. Sick, sad world.
Joni, I just KNOW how you feel. Hopefully it will pass. *sigh*

LADIES, LADIES, LADIES! *a la Jay*
What the freak is up, my children? Its been too long, indeed.
WOW, I whacked my head HARDCORE this week when I slammed it against the towel rack in the bathroom. SO NOT COOL. Still sore as hell.
This week has been so full...OLD COUNTRY BUFFET full.
I can't wait to see Joni tomorrow night for this so-called 'girls night in' at some chick's house I don't know. YAY. Apparently its a lingerie/toy night, so Andrea should get the hook-up. Well...at least a penis-shaped hat. Stay tuned for that one.
Dropped by Allison's tonight en route home. YAY WEDDING PLANS. We are such women. It just WORKS out. And by the way, Allison--work on the whole 'LET'S GET ANDREA AN ENGINEER FOR HANUKKAH' project, mmmkay? :)
I NEED the new 40 gig iPod. I am such a brat.
EH.
More to be done.

I have no desire to see Diane Sawyer in prison
Wow. I found my 'ERIC' Wizard of Oz tape today...I haven't been able to find it in a year. I don't know if its significance has been greatly increased because of the lack of time since I've seen it...or just because its just the only video I have seen that makes me cry everytime I watch it. It completely encapsulated a time in my life in which I believe I was at my peak; my peak of health, relationships, success, etc. Everything was possible then--we were all unstoppable.
I am questioning my path. Questioning my own goals right now. Yes, I have them, but have I been making them up to fit what I THINK is right for me? What I know will 'most likely' work out? Am I settling for this?
I feel so lost right now that I seriously don't remember what I love the most. I can't remember anymore. Am I just romanticizing the past? How come this happens everytime I roll the past over in my mind? I just keep churning and churning...there is no end result because I haven't DONE anything about it. Its as if I've put everything on the back burner in order to just LIVE day to day.
I really love my job. This company is rapidly growing, and I could definitely play a part in its future. This is realistic, practical thought. But I'm not happy. I love these people, but they aren't MINE.
I fill the shoes, but they just DON'T go with this outfit, ya know?
So lost. I need to sleep.

Recovery
Mucho crapage to report.
Post-work on Friday I zoomed down to the Springs IN COSTUME to chill with Jon and Sue. After dining on EXQUISITE sushi, we hit Jon's new place to help him unpack and get some of his shit sorted. Great times.
I NEED a pillow top bed, people.
After lunch on Saturday in the Springs, I headed back up to Denver to get ready at Allison's for the party in LoDo. Mucho photos were taken. We looked phenomenal. Took a cab down to the Sherman ballroom for the exotic Halloween party--grand times. Can I say YAY for male dancers and body paint?
Woke up in the early afternoon today and then headed back to my place...then back to Parker. I am SO not looking forward to this snow*age arriving tonight.
So all in all, a GREAT weekend. I'm praying for the snow storm to move...

This dog smells like ASS.
So I went out with David tonight, and we had a GRAND OL time. I gave him the 'cheek' at the end of the night, but you all know how I'm rollin these days--a little less whorish. YAAAAY!
Felt like CRAP all day today at work. D looked fabulous in his glasses today...YAY Sheryl putting in a majora compliment in my favor--I love my people.
PAX sucks. The end.
Going to bed. This weekend is going to FREAKING rule. Might go out with that new air force guy---he seriously has a photo with Pres. Bush. This is hilarious and kinda turns me on at the same time. WHAT does this MEAN?

FALAFEL NIIIIGHT
Yep. David asked me out to dinner tonight AFTER I made other plans. Tres typical, but eh. We're going out tomorrow. WOO. :)
Could it be?
Freakin crazy on I-25 this morning...three accidents. I was 15 min late getting into work. Some firefighter yelled STOP at me after I was 'waved along' by anothern. Typical. Yay for people yelling at you that don't even KNOW you. It was fun. And yes, I wrote 'anothern.' RECOGNIZE.
Gonna call Joey tonight...that kid is a riot.
I missed boss-man today.
Discovered a BADASS little diner at lunch today con mis amigos...this could be it, people. Lurved it. GOUDA GOUDA GOUDA.
Gas = $1.94/gal. I spent 20 bucks and I am barely over 1/2 a tank now. YAY JEEP! Eh. Its still worth it.
George Lopez should NOT be on television. The end.

Coloradans for YOUR MOM are responsible for this ad
Today went by fast. I just ENJOYED your call tonight, Allison.
Spoke with that David character (the fly-fishing dude, Alli), and we're supposed to get together this week. HILARIOUS. We'll see what happens. :)
GIVE IT TO ME ONE MORE TIME, COOCHIE!
Yea, I could tell you dig pitching tents.
Excuse me, I ordered the LARGE sharpie pen?
I am just tired of the world today and the loud Mexican children that wake me up every morning that live a floor below me. Yay 6012 million children in a one bedroom! YAAAAY! And yes. 6012 is a real number.
Saw whats-his-face today when I was leaving, and my heart stopped for 5 seconds. His eyes were so sad. I wish I could jolt some life back into them...
Bitchy people on the phone today at work--I just don't see the point. UGH.
Bedtime.

Stay out of the light...
So I went to Wes' wedding yesterday...a grand mini-trip, indeed! I woke up at 5:30am, threw some clothes on, and drove to work to pick up my paycheck. Headed back home after that to get ready, and then headed to the bank to deposit my mulah before driving to Littleton to pick-up Estrella.
Stopped at Target in Boulder to buy a lint-roller (which I forgot to buy) and snagged a quesadilla maker for the wedding gift. I so want one. Started to feel my lack of sleep and nabbed a coffee before we headed further up 36. The drive went swimmingly, and I started to get misty as soon as we were driving in Estes. A million memories came flooding back all at once. This was my home for nearly two years and where I made some of the closest friends I have. I grew up in this place.
I had never met Silvia, but she was a nice Peruvian girl. TRES thin and a definite looker, no joke. Wes' entire family was there, but Sil had only her mom and grandma. They are supposed to have another ceremony when they head back to Lima this winter.
So bizarre, tho. I remember Wes when he was going out with that weird Russian chick, and when Sarah and him made a 'go of it.' Yikes. Can you believe he got married, Sarah? Crazy times. YAY YMCA romance, people. It has happened to the best of us, in some shape or form.
Post-wedding shenanigans, I stopped by to hang with the Dusty--I love this kid. He just deserves better. Then I found out that Ash is the RA for the winter...he looked REALLY good. I haven't seen any of these people in at least a year. Ash has a new cd out--Maybe Later. Ash's voice and songwriting can be described as 'optimistic Bob Dylan.' It works, tho. Trust me. He needs to go back home to New Zealand so we can hang on the ASAP. :)
Then who comes WALTZING in but Shortz. He has lost 40 pounds, and looks phenom, but tired. I thought he was going to have a heart attack when he saw me. He's actually coming down to Denver tomorrow with Brian, so we're definitely going to hang. Andrea = excited. Shortz is such a great guy...wow, I've missed these people.
Post-Ash and Shortz I hung out with Doug and Jim up in the admin office--must email Israel photos to Doug. And ASHLEY---get this---ROY WAS WORKING IN THE RUSTIC!! AGHHHH! I laughed. Really hard.
After hanging with Tina Bo-Bina I had to get back to Denver for mom's b-day celebraTION. I made it back in some SWEET time. Damn, I miss that place. Dinner was fabulous. Dad did a great job with her gifts this year---I was TRES impressed.
Tonight is pumpkin time with Alli and Co. Good times.
Eli came home with a gi-normous smile on his face because he kicked some guys ass last night in a fight. Boys will be boys.
Talked to Jon last night--he's having me over next Friday so I can help him arrange his new place in the Springs with Sue (My CHARMIN buddy). Hot tub, anyone? I think I can handle this. :)
Marc called as well, last night. He's doing WELL, and this makes me happy. I loves you, Marcus.
Damn, I need a Blackberry. I actually bought a PLANNER last night to keep track of shit. CRAZY.
The Jeep needs a tune-up, STAT.
I hope Wes is making some sweet, sweet quesadillas today...
HOLY CRAP! ALSO---talked to Mel-dawg for the first time in a YEAR last night, as well. She's chillin in some Blah Blah-Qua town in upstate NY, still. I need to visit. Her voice was so good to hear on the way back from Estes last night. Wow, I miss these people. I seriously need to be a better friend. Distance = UGH. Gonna whip my sorry ass into shape...
Going to see the Grudge tonight...I doubt I'll sleep soundly for weeks. EH.

They're all CONGRAHHGAYTIN'!
I say some dumbass things, mis amigos. Worked out in the employee 'FITNESS CENTER' today post workage with Nancy. Yay for friends that are old enough to be your mother. Age just DOES NOT matter. I was on the stationary bike yelling at the television. I am so done with this election year. The PT's were working out and had a TIMER on so they could 'circuit' all 5 of the machines. And jump rope. To 'PUMP UP THE JAM,' no less. I wish I was kidding.
I found an 'ESTELLE GEDDY' workout tape, as well. Someone that gets why this is funny needs to watch it and workout hardcore SITTING IN A CHAIR style with me. On the ASAP, folks.
Do I LOOK like a public interest lawyer to you?? HUH?!
When spending the night at my parent's house, I feel like I never have to go to bed. WHAT IS THIS?
Free laundry.
HUNT/GATHER FOR QUARTERS ...I just GIVE you my permission.
There used to be salsa in that bowl.
Tomorrow is my Friday. I need to phone Estrella on the ASAP.
I loves my children...especially you, Marcus.
I need ideas for another costume. My Halloween costume is too racy for my work 'BREAKFAST POTLUCK COSTUME CONEST.' SO wrong. The wench costume just isn't going to win me 8 hours of PTO. I'm thinking GHOST of Disco. Two words, my friends...GLITTER and AFRO.

And the moral of the story is...
Sex in the Suburbs? Old news, my hard rockin' amigos.
Good times at the MIRAGE last night. I am seriously CRACKING. I was yawning hardcore at 10:30pm. Its official: I'm turning into a grandma.
I had some severe nightmares last night. The last one I had was about these zombies trying to keep me trapped in a Walmart. George W. came to save me. WTF?
Currently watching a round table discussion about 527 groups. TRES interesante.
I need to pickup my costume. Wench? Uh yes.

Aww...I'll miss Jimmy.
So the news is in: I'm visiting Misty and Co. in Newburgh over Thanksgiving weekend. HOO*rah.
Lack of hockey is depressing me.
Saturday night with the quaterbacks? HELLS yes.
Let's start a ROUSING bout of 'THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND,' mmmkay?
OR not.
There's so much going on, and I just DON'T feel like disclosing. Lately I'm feeling like I just need to SHUT OFF the noise. Cut out the drama. Its time for focus, and I'm streamlining how I spend my time--especially with people. I just DON'T have time for people that I don't respect.

There's so much going on, and I just DON'T feel like disclosing. Lately I'm feeling like I just need to SHUT OFF the noise. Cut out the drama. Its time for focus, and I'm streamlining how I spend my time--especially with people. I just DON'T have time for people that I don't respect.

Turn it up
Ya know, I actually LIKED U2's VERTIGO this morning. Since 8:30am, I've heard it over 10 times on the radio and tv today. We're thinking not so much.
Yay costume hunting with Allison tomorrow. Woot.
My body is seriously worn out. The glands are starting to hurt, and my eyes keep spasming. SLEEP = now.
I need an old Westword like Huck's.
I am so taking tap classes. This just seems appropriate.
AIR MATTRESS.

Mucho drama in the neighborhood
Okay. A brief rundown of Sat- Present:
Saturday: Hung out with the Jone-ster (Boston's = SUCKS ASS), bought some LIQUAAAH, and headed to Bob's for party fest. GREAT times. I was smashed. Mikey = weird guy. Beer pong. I fell asleep. Bob woke me up at 3-ish to tell me that I had to leave, along with everyone else that was lying on the floor. This was INSANE. I was barely sober OR awake, for that matter. Joni followed me home to make sure I was cool driving. I was only a few blocks away from home, but wow. Never doing that again....crashed at 4am. TIRED.
Sunday: Woke up at 2pm and tried to remember what I had planned tonight. Talked to the Doctor *yay*, then got ready for Canadian Thanksgiving at Tifani's. Bought a pie, met up with Heather, then hit the road to Lakewood. Met FABULOUS Jen. I have a non-sexual crush on Jen. I just RESPECT this woman SO much. Tif has a new kitten...a male named MARY. Hilarious. He's adorable--very dog-like. Conversed with married couple, Ron and Colleen. Good folk. Quoted Napoleon Dynamite until the pie. The glorious pie.
Law school is a definite.
Lunching with Allison tomorrow. Grand times await...

Wait for it...wait for it...
WOW, I am so freaking tired right now.
Plans fell through with Cory--I know his ass got busted somewhere. His ass is MINE next. Dinner with parents = pucker. I AM going to law school. *HOORAH* Mucho discussion about this.
Listened to JG, and felt like crying. His words mean so much to me.
Loving work. There's just a FUTURE here.
Yay new cologne...yum*may.
AIR MATTRESS!!
Good times with great friends this weekend--Joni tomorrow afternoon, Bob's house party in the PM, then Canadian Thanksgiving on Sunday with Tif. I am going to miss that troll. Eh. At least now I have plans to go to Toronto this spring. HOLLA! Jazzed. ERcized.
Damn, that pisses me off about Cory.
Barely awake.

Yep. Its true. All of us WOMEN voters want to shag John Edwards.
Apparently the 'single women' voters will swing with the Kerry/Edwards campaign. Bollocks. Or not so much.
I am wearing HIDEOUS sweatpants right now, and I have never been more comfortable. Well, as comfortable as you can get when your uterus is doing cartwheels. I've been on the rag THREE times in 6 weeks. YAAAY EC!
FREE LUNCH. SACK LUNCH. LUNCH TICKET. ORANGE LUNCH TICKET PUNCH. SACK ATTACK!
This weekend I'm going to get shit done, I promise.

Take me OOT
I think I've been OVERLY adapting myself to people. I do this to make people feel comfortable and correct. But I believe the overuse of such things can be TRES unkosher and ultimately bad news overall. UNhealthy. I think its because I generally want people to like me, but I'm definitely eeping into a time period in which I couldn't give a rat's ass. This definitely comes in cycles.
I love how the bar scene is just one huge meat market. A meat market full of decomposing, drunken, ugly flesh. Granted, I have met some cool people, but they are few and far, amigos. And I feel for you guys, I really do. It takes cojones and/or alcohol to take that much rejection in one night.
Joni, you rule. I knew it would happen.

Jalapeno Tostitos--yes.
I'm feeling SO ready for something. Every muscle in my body is just in this tense mode, my feet are curled at the edge of a diving board, and I'm ready to react at any type of 'GO' signal. Its the silence before the storm. The dead space between READY(....and....) GO.
And I have no idea why.
Feeling uber lazy today. Drove to the rent's house around 2am post-last night's festivities. Crashed on the air mattress in the space that I once called my room. Its painted now. With a desk. And a papason. This wasn't the room I grew up in, but my crap did occupy it for a while. A bit of a sad feeling here.
I saw Garden State this time last week, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Zach Braff's character has this line about family which made so much sense it hurt:
"Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place."
I need another chip.

Ain't nothin chillin' at the HOLIDAE INNNNNN!
Last night was an absolute blast. Met up with Heather first at the Fox & Hound, but we were blinded by Nebraska fans. Seriously. 200 people wearing red = not cool. We skipped out of there and headed to Earl's...badass. Yay for connections and 100 bucks in free drinks. That place is CLASS.
Post Earl's, we headed over to Lodos to meet up with Bob, Billy and some random people. Hotness, people. HOTNESS. The party continued until midnight when we headed to...you guessed it...midnight cosmic bowling. We totally rule. And suck hardcore at bowling. Its drunken lasertag this week, babay! Next weekend at Bob's, tho. Its definitely an all-nighter. GOOD TIMES.
I sense a nap coming on...

Dick Cheney owes me $1.75
The weekend is finally here, and I couldn't be happier. *BLAH* :)
I am absolutely loving the job. It has soul.
I miss Kyle so much.
This past week has been CRAZY. Too much to write about anymore.
The birthday went swimmingly. I heart my people.
Glo-bowl is going to kick SO MUCH ass.
Life is feeling so good. Jon is making me a frap right now. Bless him.
I NEED an iSight. Hooketh me UP.
Chris-it has just been a WHILE. We should dish.
RENT is just due. WOW. Bloomington trip memories. Would you light my candle? BOO YAAAH!
Adieu.

Keep on Truckin'
Jon's last night, post-movie fiesta. Not so much on the sleep, unfortunately. We hit the Chile and Frijole festival. I have no idea why such a small town has a freakin' huge ass festival every weekend. Eh. I had a cheese steak.
Wow, I need to get ready. I drove all the way back to civilization this early AM and crashed at the rent's house until now. I desire to be clean. Let it be.

Aggresively Passive
You really got that something...
Damn, this week has worn down the bones. I wouldn't have it any other way. I am REALLY loving work. CAN'T get enough. A bit of a crush on the boss...woops. Tres typical.
Hung out with Katie last night-->good times. We watched The Bachelor without any sound at the bar. CLASS ACT. Get this: some bitch brought her DOG along with her to the show. This pisses me off.
Rob...seriously. The calls? Nope.
I am missing Jon. WTF is wrong with me?
My body is stressed, big time. I need to solve this. The weekend will heal me. Good times are afoot, Allison! MUAHAHAHAH! Comedy club? Uh yes. Gonna get back together with Jon #2, methinks. At least for the weekend. Bah. The shit is gonna hit the fan on Saturday, folks.
Speaking of, Yom Kippur is Saturday.
My birthday is next THURSDAY. WHAT...the...freak. *gulp* I'm old. Nope.
'In a way he don't know me...'

What does age have to do with it?
Some 31 year-old dude wants to take me out, and I am not too sure about it. The dude has 9 years on me. Eh, I think my vocalized trepdidations have solved this conundrum. Speaking of, I wonder how Joni is faring...
With the paralyzing fear that comes with a possible pregnancy, I find it odd that with a negative test comes relief with a hint of sadness.
Wow.
Andrea is on dating hiatus, so we've decided. We'll see how long this lasts.
Finishing up laundry here @ the house. RELIEF. I need to make a petro stop before heading back to the place. This weekend has been TOO SHORT, people.
'Cellular' wasn't bad. The dude from 'Not Another Teen Movie' was in it. JAKE. He did rather well.
I had Borat dreams all night, and I must say...they were mighty fine.

Ugly People Have it Shitty
Wow, its been a while since I've posted. Not being hooked up at home has definitely cut down on the blogging, yet it has significantly boosted the working out. *hoorah* Double-edged sword, my friends.
I'm finding myself really missing my close friends as of late. Distance is a bitch. I've been out about every day this week with friends, but it just isn't the same. Oh, and word to the wise: DO NOT EAT AT APPLEBEE'S. Don't do it. Not cool.
This past week has been filled with so many *mini* emergencies, it is ridiculous. All of them being my fault, of course. One way or another. MEH. I need to be taking a bit more precaution these days. But the result of my actions is just too much to handle. I constantly have these issues on my mind, and I wish to taste the freedom of a clear conscience.
So I am definitely diving into work. I love my new job. I love the people I work with, and I feel that what I am doing is definitely worthwhile and appreciated. One doesn't find this often.
Heather still hasn't heard word on her job yet. Sick. Katie and that douche broke up, which is actually a GOOD thing. When someone is constantly abusing you emotionally, it is just TIME to be over.
I miss my dogs.
I am getting into a yoga or jujitzu (sp?) class. Haven't decided yet. Do I want to relax or kick some ass? I think both would yield the same result in the end, however. I could just do both. We'll see. MEH.
Mom and Dad came over for dinner last night, and it was glorious. It was nice to use my new, pricey dish and silverware set that I spent all my money on last week instead of food. But *hoorah* to nice things, ya know? I just refuse to buy trash.
Mom brought over frozen pizzas. Bless her.
Meeting up with Allison today, so this should prove to be an interesting evening.
We're done.

He MADE a million dollars!
I most definitely have a better relationship with my mom when I live somewhere else. Nice.
Wrapping up my 4 hour stint here at home. Got some laundry done. Slept on the new furniture. Glorious. I woke up and my right eye was freaking on FIRE and red as hell. Weird. No big whoop, tho. My mom had made me cookies and threw my wet laundry in the dryer WHILST I was sleeping. Yay moms.
Missing and worrying about Kyle. I miss him so much. I'm most likely flying out to see him before the summer, which I am all too psyched about. WOO woo. Woot. KINKOS, YA'LL!
Gonna head back to the place and put all my shit away. *yay* The fun never ends.

Went to school and I was very nervous
HO-LY crap. The past 24 hours have been the craziest of the year, amigos. I'm not going to disclose all the details, but wow. 3 hours of sleep. A huge scare. Fun times. Yay for being alive. I can't feel my legs or shoulders. WOOT WOOT.
Aww, Chris. Mrs. WOLF. CONCH SHELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! Kid getting hit with a large rock, and flying over a cliff. PIG. let.
Pleasant surprise: thinking that I wasn't going to get paid until the 24th with my first check from the new job...but GETTING A HUGE CHECK today in the mail from Gart's. I completely SPACED all my vacation time! Thank you, G-d. SERIOUSLY. I can buy clothes this weekend and live it up with Heather...muahahahahahahahaha.
Anywho...I find it odd that my parents buy an EXTREMELY CLASSY living room furniture set as SOON as we move out of the house. EH. I just WANT it.
Hanging out tonight for Shabbat dinner. Tilapia? Hells yes.
Went to lunch today with work people--lovely. C = Barney Rubble. No kidding.
Um...can I get a WET burrito? Pork is just UNNECESSARY in green chili.
I thought I would cook hardcore when I had my own place. Nope. Who am I kidding? I've made soup, sandwiches, and spaghetti-o's for the past week. PATHETIC.
Jon is finding a new place in the Springs. Yay square footage and a MAIL SLOT that empties into your coat closet. GENIUS.
I'm finding out what it really means to be respected again. I am liking this.
KRONOS, BABAAY!
Diva troup.
Step it up.

Lovely Rita
Life. Is. Hectic.
So I had orientation in Lakewood today, which wasn't too bad. I was talking to Jon until about 1:30 in the am (ridiculous), and I had to be up at 5 to move all the shit around so the maintenence dudes could re-surface my countertop today before I left for work at 6:30 am. OY. I feel dead. I actually start at the Capitol tomorrow. Nice. It was cool to have my dad give the I/S talk to our group...this is the first time I have truly seen the man in action. He is RESPECTED, and rightly so.
Yesterday was busy but not too shabby. Katie came over in the late morning to help me finish the move and put together my large-assed canopy bed. We finally moved the rest of my shit out of the house, bought some nuts at Home Depot because we were majorly short, went out for dinner, bought mirrors and a bedskirt, and hung out until 10:30-ish.
I also snagged a tv cart yesterday, along with a wooden sign that says, "Please don't shoot the Piano player...he is doing the best he can."
Tarah and Eli broke up. This saddens me.
I am currently at home tying up loose ends and doing laundry. YAY. No one is home. Mom still hates me. I hope the counter looks decent.
I am going to bed at 7pm. No joke.
LUMBAR = WORKHORSE

I know where you hide; all alone in your car
Holy shit, this weekend has been kicking ass. I've driven a total of 300 miles since Friday night. Right now I have a HUGE migraine and I probably need to throw up after I blog. YAY. Holy crap, last night was one huge drunken fest. And now the rents are fucking screaming at me because they want all of my shit out of here by tonight. I'll never get done. I have about 15 boxes of assorted shit in the basement that I haven't gone thru yet. Its all crap from high school and my 3 moves in the past year and a half. Ugh. Help.
Friday: Paid bills, went shopping, drove to Pueblo to meet up with Jon, Jesse, and Sue at the state fair. CHARMIN experience. VW bug.
Saturday: Hung out with Jesse at Jon's, drove back up from Pueblo, grabbed some clothes from home, and met up with Allison for lunch at Racine's in LoDo. Post-lunch we went grocery shopping in the ghetto for Doug's cookout in Golden. In heels. Ouch. Spent a half-hour at Argonaut's picking out 4 bottles of wine. Headed back to Allison's to change, and then drove to Golden to hang with Doug. Grilling, Tivo, wine, bar hopping, good times. Went to bed around 2-ish.
Which brings us to NOW. Showered at Doug's, and just got home. I feel like absolute SHIT, but I have to get all my crap out of the house and into the apartment by tonight. This is not going to happen. My head is POUNDING. Eh. My own bloody fault. Doug and I share the same compaint about other people taking our photos. We just KNOW.
Back to packing the Jeep. It doesn't get any better.

Enigmatic Eggroll RETURNS!
Aww....HOW I miss Kimmie, my miniature eggroll Stanza buddy. Way of sub, amiga.
So my last day at Garts, right? 8-5. I get there at 7:15, talk to Jones for a bit, then we get the fucking AUDIT lady at our door. And I thought it was going to be a LAZY day. Not. Then we find out that our CEO is coming, and he is going to be armed with Asian investors. Great. And then we have a HUGE ass ad that was SUPPOSED to be set last night. Fuck.
Long story short: I left at 3, I can't feel my neck, and DRINKS TONIGHT, BABAAAY!
Spank you oh so very much.
Rice crispie treats? Hells yes.
Eli and I spent our first night in the place. It ruled. I'm currently back home loading up the Jeep with more shit to bring over. I am probably going to spend the rest of the afternoon putting my bed together and pounding shit in the walls. Awesome. I start my new job on Tuesday.
Glory be.
Saturday is going to be GLORIOUS. Loves.

Long story short: I left at 3, I can't feel my neck, and DRINKS TONIGHT, BABAAAY!
Spank you oh so very much.
Rice crispie treats? Hells yes.
Eli and I spent our first night in the place. It ruled. I'm currently back home loading up the Jeep with more shit to bring over. I am probably going to spend the rest of the afternoon putting my bed together and pounding shit in the walls. Awesome. I start my new job on Tuesday.
Glory be.
Saturday is going to be GLORIOUS. Loves.

Represent
SEPTEMBER, BABY! And this month is Jewish History Month, so I am telling you all to 'recognize,' as it were. I love it...its my birthday AND JHM! Come on, do you seriously need more of a reason to take me to lunch? Eh? Ehhhh? :)
Anywho, I am STILL in the middle of moving. Most of my crap is outta here, but it will take a few more days to sort EVERYTHING out and get it into its place. Tonight's great feat will be putting together my new bed....woooo! UH...Eli?
I need to PURCHASE a shower curtain.
Welcome to your new home! Please accept this carrabeaner on behalf of ALL of us here! Yep. Only in Colorado. I love this place.

Lookin like ass; smellin' like trash
Music: Seether- Broken
'I wanna hold you high and steal your pain.'
Damn good.
MOVING DAY TODAAAAY! Wow, I am soooo not ready. BOO YAH! I'll be moving for the next 5 days, no joke. Today we're getting our clothes and beds in the new place, as well as signing the lease. I have LOADS of laundry to do. I would be a bit more ready if I didn't have to close at work for the past 3 days. Wankers. Eh. The money will come in handy. The rents are all-too anxious to get me the hell out of here. The feeling is mutual.
Can I tell you how much I LOVE Nick Drake?
I believe my posting is going to be on the minimal side because we won't have internet hooked up for about a month. This is probably a GOOD thing. Eli and I will be at the pool or playing tennis in our off time.
Gee, life is rough.

More than words
Music: Take One Guess
Getting ready for work as of current. My abdomen is CHURNING. Tonight is my last night closing at Gart, which is GLOOOOORIOUS. I plan on not doing a thing. We'll see how this works out.
I cannot believe we're finally moving tomorrow. Eli is pretty excited. Mom bought us an ass-load of toilet paper. *ahem* And a toaster. Strudel.
I made a late-night trip to Wal-Mart yesterday, post-work. I had to fight the urge to purchase mass quantities of candles because I should probably spend my money on crap we can actually eat for two weeks. Priorities? What?
Nah, he was DEFINITELY dancing.

Do you have this soccer cleat in a size 10?
Music: Aqualung--Strange and Beautiful (I Put a Spell on You)
Wow. Stayed up WAAAAY too late last night/this morning. I didn't turn in officially until 4:45am. It was totally worth it, tho. LOOKOUT!
Every single bone in my body right now is SCREAMING.
I have one more night of closing ahead of me, then its an all-day festivus of relocaTION. I can't wait.
11:17...time to schleep. :)

Daily Races
Music: Clapton-More than Words
So many thoughts racing through my mind today: CARVING a niche, starting from scratch, recognizing/appreciating the good. I do believe today has been THE longest day of 2004.
FED UP:
A large group of high school softball girls came trouping thru the store today ISO Under Armour to wear underneath their uniforms. Along with three stocky mothers with short haircuts and Oakley tans, they haggled about which color the team should wear. Some tall, awkward boy tweaked that WHITE would be the most appropriate color, interrupting the flow. A tall mother wearing a clingy long skirt (all the while putting on an ostentatious exhibition of her SIGNIFICANT baggy underwear line), chimed in with the following:
"Um...Andrew...we do value your opinion, but you are NOT the Ponderosa Mustang Softball team MANAGER!"
CLASS ACT.
I wanted to shower these people with bricks. Instead I retreated to the break room, wherein I dove into a highly enjoyable newspaper shredding frenzy. YAY!
I seriously needed more sleep today.
Joni is great. It seems as though all my female friends are either on a 'MAN' strike, or involved in some twisted web of lust vs hate vs standards vs blah blah.
Oy.
3 more days of Gart.
Moving in Wednesday...let the games begin.

Does it make you feel more like a man?
Spoke with my sister tonight for almost two hours, and it was glorious. It really pains me that we live so far away from each other. I miss her greatly, along with Gabriella. Family is not meant to be apart, and the fact is ripping my guts out. We're finally both at an age where we can share experiences and be somewhat on the same plane. Her advice is invaluable.
It's getting difficult to sleep these past few weeks. Mucho amounts on my mind, and I know the issues are only going to get heavier. Thank G-d for good people. Wow, Chris...we really did take excellent care of each other back in the day. I need that now more than ever, and it just isn't there, ya know? However, I shouldn't complain. I have my health. I have a roof over my head, food, a job, the rest. But something is truly missing...
4 more days left at Garts. I am so excited. Eli and I move into the place on Wednesday. I truly have NO IDEA in hell how we're going to get everything together by then, but we're gonna do it.
Anxious.

Out and aboot
Music: Iron and Wine--Such Great Heights
Holy crap, Iron & Wine has been FEEDING MY SOUL for the past two days. I love it.
Went out for drinks tonight with the people. Good times all around. I haven't laughed that much in weeks...
I love Joni and Bob.
Allison just DESERVES better.
I miss Kyle, Chris, and Marc. I sincerely wish I could just live next to these people. Oh, the times we've had...
Holy CRAP, there are so many douche bags out there...
Headache.

Music: Thievery Corp-Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes
Wow, I'm in a BITCHY mood tonight/this morning. EH. I need hugs, a footrub, and chocolate.
This guy I talked to on the phone tonight acted confused when I said that MAN juice had a smell. He's like...HOW DO YOU KNOW? WHAT the FREAK. How does one NOT know? Eh.
So tired.
I have so much shit on my bed from 'organizing' today. So much for that shit.
Eh. Tomorrow. Today. Whatever.

I wanna hold you high and steal your pain...
Music: America-Rainy Day
Dark and rainy. My day off. I love it.
I woke up at noon, ate a cherry popsicle, hung out for a bit...and here I am.
Today I need to sort all my clothes, and throw most everything away. CATHARSIS.
Had a bizarro movie dream again. I was in this small, Irish community...a child had passed away. We were mourning this child for about 2 weeks. Christian Bale was in it. He didn't give me a second look. Figures.
EH.
I need to run to Big Lots today to get my credit card statement back. I hope no one snagged the numbers...I could be ULTRA screwed.
Hallie is now freaking out because of the rain.
Eh. I'm now off to light a fire under my ass. Wish me luck.
Thanks for the message, Kylo. I love you too, man. :)

Southern Belles NEED NOT apply
Wow. Today has been chock full of wild shit:
1. Worked from 7-4:30
2. Ran to Aurora to check out this furniture store I was researching. Turns out it was in the GHETTO, and I felt as tho I was going to be jumped at any moment. I def. sped out of there. I did, however, find a kickass thrift store en route.
3. On the way back into Parker on Peoria, there was a bit of a stall because this dude wanted to turn left across some double lines and 5 o'clock traffic. About 10 cars came to a fast halt in front of me, and I was able to do the same. Then I saw this crazy ass woman speeding behind me, and I was able to lurch forward enough so she could BARELY swerve into the other lane without pounding my ass. She screeched on her brakes and proceeded to give me a bitchy look. WHAT THE HELL! There's an entire line of stopped cars in front of me, woman. Maybe you should stop hitting your kid in the backseat of your '91 Tempo and freaking DRIVE.
4. Stopped at the Lots and bought my canopy bed, as well as a new bed frame. While I was there, a lawyer from LoDo called me on the cell about a job opening he has. DAMN. As soon as I get a job offer, the others come pouring in. Eh. I actually was able to shoot the shit with the guy, and he sounded extremely cool. I bet he was hot. Hot lawyer. Yay.
5. Stop by King's; get dog food and a lunchable. I am freaking starving.
6. Come home, and don't want to get all the boxes out of the Jeep. Big Lots calls and tells me they have my CREDIT CARD statement that I just got in the mail today. I must have dropped it when I paid for my crap. I hope to G-D they didn't look at it. THANK YOU, 60 bucks at Fascinations! YAAAAAY! Once again...eh.
I am absolutely wiped, thanks to MOI staying up until 1am. Couldn't sleep.
Ah well. Tomorrow I have the entire day to work on packing. Should prove to be a time of extreme greatness.
I can't feel my legs.

Our State Fair is a GREAT State Fair!
Shout out to sophomore year! YESSS! Who are Evan O'Donnel and Jared Peckenpaugh?
Pivot, step, WAVE.
My last day here at Gart for the week, thank the good L-rd. MADNESS. I am so done with this.
Grabbing the bed frame today at Big Lots...tempted to check out the others before I buy this one. CLASS ACT. You just have to SEE it to believe it.
Went out for drinks last night with some people from work. I was torn between sharing/listening to anecdotes, and watching the olympics on any one of the 5 screens surrounding my face. Typical.
I need denim. Working freight all day, and my khakis look like shittles. Eh.
1.5 hours left at work, so I think I can make it. Considering another nap in the dressing rooms...
WHERE are you, Kyle? Call me.
Freeze.

Get your haiku on
MAZEL TOV, Gal Friedman! The windsurfer has secured the first gold medal for Israel...ever. Too awesome.
Heather called me this morning--she has an interview with UA on Monday! I AM SO EXCITED FOR HER! She is just TOO FREAKING GOOD for Garts. I KNOW she'll get the position. Woo.
Anywho...like I said before, I was inundated with decor ideas until 1 am this morning. I NEED TO STOP THE MADNESS.
I also need to grab lunch.
And yo mamma.
Done.

Back...WITH THA HARDCORE
I really dislike Wanda Sykes. There it is.
I don't know if anyone else was watching the Amateur Golf Tourney on ESPN on Friday, but I almost spat my soup across the restaurant when I saw Jeff Overton playing golf on the widescreen. That kid farted A LOT in middle school during Mr. Wheaton's history class. He also gave TWB a freaking heart attack everyday in concert choir at North. Oh, the days...
This Wednesday on Conan (holy crap, its been months, Conan): BEN STILLER, OWEN WILSON, and some other people who aren't as important. CHECK IT.
Closing wasn't too bad--got out at 9:30. Excellence. I don't know if I can make it. I'm going to miss Bob.
I definitely need to avoid reading 5 decorating books before bedtime. My mind spins until 3am with ideas, and it is INCREDIBLY annoying/pathetic.

10 year-olds do NOT need cellphones
Pre-teens ANNOY THE HELL out of me. I require some white choco mousse right now.
"Uh...Andrea...we're gonna need you to do a 180% close tonight b/c corp is coming tomorrow...mmkay? Do you know what that means?"
Hmm...I've only been here a YEAR, know more about my department than my current manager, and I am the only person who gives a shit and can make the pad look decent. And I don't even GIVE a shit. What does this tell you?
Seriously. 2 more weeks is just TOO long for this shite.
EH. Anywho...nabbed some design books from the 'ol libe. I owe them like 4 bucks for having A Raisin in the Sun out for like 2 months this past spring semester. Sick.
Eli has TWO interviews this week. CELEBRATION. One is at a donut shop. His words: "I better not become a fat fuck..." My family exudes class.

Take IT
Alright, I may be a QUIZ whore, but seriously...this is just so dead on about me. Take the color quiz people. I want to see how well this works with all of you...
http://www.ColorQuiz.com/
Your Existing Situation
Imaginative and sensitive; seeking an outlet for these qualities--especially in the company of someone equally sensitive. Interest and enthusiasm are readily aroused by the unusual or the adventurous.
Your Stress Sources
Wants to overcome a feeling of emptiness and to bridge the gap which she feels separates herself from others. Anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to explore all its possibilities, and to live it to the fullest. She therefore resents any restriction or limitation being imposed on her and insists on being free and unhampered.
Your Restrained Characteristics
Believes that she is not receiving her share--that she is neither properly understood or adequately appreciated. Feels that she is being compelled toconform, and close relationships leave her without any sense of emotionalinvolvement. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity but tends to hold aloof emotionally.
Your Desired Objective
Seeks success, stimulation, and a life full of experience. Wants to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt, to win, and to live intensely. Likes contacts with others and is enthusiastic by nature. Receptive to anything new, modern, or intriguing; has many interests and wants to expand her fields of activity. Optimistic about the future.
Your Actual Problem
Fights against restriction or limitation, and insists on developing freely as a result of her own efforts.
Your Actual Problem #2
The fear that she might be prevented from achieving the things she wants leads her to play her part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

Your dominant hues are red and magenta. You love doing your own thing and going on your own adventures, but there are close friends you know you just can't leave behind. You can influence others on days when you're patient, but most times you just want to go out, have fun, and do your own thing. Your saturation level is high - you get into life and have a strong personality. Everyone you meet will either love you or hate you - either way, your goal is to get them to change the world with you. You are very hard working and don't have much patience for people without your initiative. Your outlook on life is very bright. You are sunny and optimistic about life and others find it very encouraging, but remember to tone it down if you sense irritation. |

Don't do it
I haven't been home since Saturday morning. I just got back, and this house is a mess. I was chillin with Jason for his b-day.
Ugh. I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to eat pudding without a spoon. A messy task, no matter which way you look at it.
Today I get to have a physical and a drug test for the new job. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Gotta be at work by 2. These next two weeks are going to suxzors...but again...no more Gart's after this. WOO. It is sweet that Scrof is back at the store...seriously. Dols got screwed BIG TIME.
I really need to get my ass in gear with the Israel photos. NO TIME.
Thinking about auditioning for 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown.." or "You Can't Take it With You" in Aurora. I'm not sure which, and I hope I could do one or the other with my new job. We'll see. I need to find my sheet music...
I don't know if I could do YCTWY again without Jerry. Awww, JERRY! UNI-BOOB!
Anywho, I gotta go pee in a cup. CIAO.

You have the face of a woman who can suck...
Oh my L-rd. I am so tired. I stayed up until 3am talking to Jon in his music-induced madness. It was great fun. He might be moving to the Springs soon and giving me his bed. SWEET.
I have an interview in two hours. I also feel like I am going to hurl. AWESOME.
Would you avoid a relationship with someone solely based on the fact that they were a HORRIBLE kisser? Unless it was a a hopeless case, I would try to train the mofos into submission if they were worth it.
Anywho...I am off to shower this ass.

This hurts deeper than I thought it would
Thank the Lord. My last night closing! Woo freaking hoo! Payday= tomorrow, so I am completely jazzed. Furniture shopping!
In other news, Allison and I are coming together on a book. I'll share details later, but I do feel that this book will be a spring board into something bigger....much bigger.
I love plans.
I can't wait until I move out, but I am sure as hell going to miss chili.

Would you find it in your heart...
If you utilize a fork solely for EATING purposes, it will last indefinitely. However, if you use it to drive nails or dig trenches, it will soon break. You must use it for what it is DESIGNED to do. Thank you, careerbuilder burnout article. SERIOUSLY. This is me at Gart.
-I absolutely LOATHE selling shit, and having to bombard customers with add-ons and service plans that they DON'T need.
-I dislike and am aggressively unmotivated by routine tasks and sameness in the workplace.
-The fluorescent lighting is killing my soul
So that about wraps it up. Eli is in Nebraska, so I stole his bed last night. That might seem odd, but my bed is broken, so eat it. I REALLY need to get that bad boy fixed. I might wanna get any incriminating evidence out from under it in the meantime...
My depth perception must be off again...
ONE MORE DAY of this shit this week. I can't wait for this weekend...
Yesterday marked exactly 2 WEEKS until Eli and I move outta here. Sweet.
I need to find lunch. HUNT/GATHER.
I also need to order checks. Lates, people.

Pressed against the hard things of the world
7:17 PM. I am hella bored. Currently on break from work. Bob and Rob are working, so I am saved. I've spent most of my time today hiding and working on my monthly budget. Rock. There's absolutely nothing to do at work, and its killing me.
It's raining like mad. Duane walked me out to my car with his umbrella, but my left shoulder was not shielded from the downpour in the least. I didn't feel like getting 'close and cozy' with the man, so I didn't say anything. EH. Wet shoulder, clear conscience. He shaved his goatee that he's had for 13 years. His wife prefers the clean-shaven look. I personally think he looks like a douche without the flavor saver. Not to mention a poor double-person umbrella holder. EH.
I'm currently dealing with a lot of shit right now, just under the pulse. Some of it I'm letting slide because other matters take priority now. But this is how we deal with life--not unlike an ER triage. The important crap we deal with face-to-face, and the rest we can leave well enough alone...for now. Sigh.
Tomorrow is my last night closing, so YAY. I'm planning on making Friday afternoon a day of furniture hunting with Allison post-interview. We should have some good times all-around.
My body hurts.
Sleeping tonight is going to feel fabulous.
Kyle, are you still alive?
Spent.

Let me rest in pieces
Current Music: Gary Jules- Mad World
Done rather early tonight at the store. Bob was working. I love this man.
I am now sitting here eating leftover pizza and drinking coke from my favorite teal tumbler. This night is mine.
Thinking back over this year and realizing what a crazy fucking time I've had. This has been the longest and most eventful year in the life of moi. Madness.
A friend of mine was passing thru Nevada and stopped by a brothel. He didn't pay for any 'services,' but he was able to look at a line-up of girls, pick one out, and ask her for price ranges. NOT KIDDING. The specific girl he picked out charged 100 g's for intercourse, which I thought wasn't that steep. Eh. I want to go to a brothel and check out the place. Definitely an idea for a photojournalism project...
And how come I find a $20 dollar off coupon for Fascinations when I already bought a new vibrator? Eh. I'll just have to get a new one. YAY.
Going to sleep and dreaming of brothels. Lates.

If you press F3, you can get like 10 more lives, dude.
On break from work. I currently have 13 dollars in my checking account...JEALOUS? Thank you, 300+ dollars in bills and my apartment deposit. Damn, I can't wait to get paid, and get my new job.
Speaking of, the hoity toity law firm received my email, but couldn't open my resume. NOT COOL. At least they were nice enough to ask for a different format instead of discarding my resume like a piece of soiled toilet paper. Rock. Yay for damn sweet cover letters. Or their desperation...either/or. :)
Closing tonight at Gart's. Its pretty slow, so thank G-d. Seriously. I've been folding and straightening all afternoon...ahh...the life of the closer. I've also sold more hardlines today than my own softlines. Figures. EH.
Do you have these volley socks in a HUNTER GREEN?
Christopher cracks me up. Glad he called today and saved me from retail, if not for more than 8.46 minutes.
Anywho, I gotta get back to work. Gonna go home, re-format my resume and get it off to the appropriate people, and sleep.
OH! Dad did give me a call...he was setting up a golf game for next week with the CEO, and he said that I would be a 'good fit' for the organization. Please oh please hire me...
We'll see.
Last night I couldn't sleep, so I mapped out what my room is going to look like with various bed placement. I am def. jazzed. I also need to build some shelves.
If I had a hammer...

It seems to me a strange thing...
Interview with the boss man today. It went swimmingly. I don't know why I was even nervous...everything came forth as usual. I really hope I get this job, people. I so strongly desire to be a part of an organization that is actually helping people. This sounds like a complete line, but I am not joking. Working in retail for the past year has been killing my soul, and it's about damn time I get the hell outta there.
Surprised Jason after my interview, which was cool. All of a sudden I was struck with this bizarre exhaustion, and all I wanted to do was sleep on his couch. Crazy how men can do that...BOO YAH! Jay Kay.
Snagged a foot long from subway today for a whopping $1.18. How I love Subway stamps.
No one has what I want, duvet-wise. I'm doing my room in all black and hot pink, and no one seems to have these linens in a queen. If anyone knows a place, online or off, where I could snag this shit...you know who to call.
Marc is back in Illinois right now, and I miss the dude. I can't believe this summer has gone by so quickly. Then again...I say this every year. EH.
Israel memories are still strong...I do suppose they'll never fade. I need to go back.
I work at Gart's tomorrow until close, which will suck ass, but I'll get over it.
There's an ad for a photographer in the paper, but I have a feeling its with that Monty Nuss character. NO THANKS. I think I'm going to call them, regardless...
I have 8 dollars to last me the rest of this week. We loves the Taco Hell.
I miss you, Sarah.
Off for some coffee, and then back to the casa for some packing.
And...that'll do.

Some say LOVE...*insert ASL routine here*
Saturday. Snacks.
Consumed lox and bagel this morning. This was a good thing.
Watched Scary Movie 3 last night for the first time. Yep. I'll never get that time back. The only moderately funny part was when the troll got hit by a car. Yes, I am sick.
SATURDAY AM ACTIVITY: Watching the Israel videos. HOW I miss Jerusalem. And its a wonder why we visited during the short, 6-month hiatus of violence. Coincidence? I think not.
I'm in some Jewish/German newspaper right now, and I can't locate the story.
Apparently I am a Montreal Activist. Nope.

Are you asking me on a DATE? Check 'yes' or 'no'
Damn, I miss Kyle.
Work started off pretty bad this morning at 7, but I managed to take a 20 minute nap in the dressing rooms, and fought off a migraine in the process. This is how we do it.
As the day progressed, the whole work environment improved, and Joni is her old self again. Praise be, seriously. I don't like to see the bad side of the woman. She's all business, I'm tellin ya.
I'm just jazzed at the fact that Rob is going to be my neighbor.
Some douche-baggy HS dudes came into the store and asked me where our speedos and soccer socks were. This couldn't be good. I jokingly asked them if they were going to wear the shit and strut around the community pool. That's exactly what they were doing. I'm too good for this job.
Anywho, I helped them soup-up their wardrobe, and they were def. prancing about the dressing rooms in the Nike comp. gear. I was cracking. BULGE. 17-year olds. HA. Excellent.
So I'm back home, and I do believe tonight is going to be one of RELAXATION and of GREAT FOOD. Bring it.
I'm sleeping in tomorrow, which is going to be GREAT. Not much sleep this week. EH. My own fault, of course. Also hittin the Scottish Festival in the afternoon, which is going to be KILLAH.
Interview with the CEO on Monday...OY. Excited.
DONE with Garts.
Til next time...

Can't find my underwear...
Today was freaking busy. Had my interview with the corp offices this morning downtown at 8:15. The interview went exceedingly well. I have a meeting with the CEO of the company on Monday morning. Following said meeting, Eli and I are signing the lease on our new apartment/freedom wagon. Feel free to hop aboard.
The rents checked out the place today, and they are cool with everything. Its a nice feeling.
Work sucked the ass. That's all.
Tara and Eli were waiting for me by the Jeep after work, which totally ruled. We snagged some custard at Good Times, then headed over to Walmart where we found this awesome starter kitchen set for 30 bucks. A freakin steal.
Tara is having trepidations about going to college in Nebraska next week. OY. I've just BEEN there.
I can't feel my shoulders.
I am loving this time of the year, and this time in my life right now. Its about damn time for change.

No sex in the fitness center!
Holy crap, people. Eli and I are moving out together. We should be approved by tomorrow afternoon. We snagged a 2 bedroom apartment off of Parker. My mom made sure to notify me immediately that this was not an excuse to have sex all the time. Thanks, mom. We move in September 1st.
I am EXCITED. We're going to be closer into Denver, on the outskirts of Aurora (the clean Aurora). Let the good times begin. I need a couch. And a new bed. And dishes. And...um...a lot of crap.
6 hours of sleep in the past two days. This is killing me.
My interview is TOMORROW in the wee hours of the morn downtown. I better get this. I'm jazzed to wear the clothes, fah shiz. I am so ready for the pay-raise.
I am going to be neighbors with ROB! BAAAH! Killah.
I'm going to bed in an hour.
Jason hooked his ass up with a job, which is FREAKING AWESOME! You rule, Jason. This is a week of progress, I'm telling you.
So details: We're on the third floor, which means that we have vaulted ceilings and skylights. Our porch looks out onto the golf course...NOT into the parking lot. I am liking this.
Na na na na.

Camping Hell
And before I turn in for the evening...a bit about my camping trip this past weekend:
We arrive at Golden Gate Park (9100 elev.) circa 10pm to encounter a full campsite. We pull up in two vehicles to our site and set up camp. We sleep. I enjoyed the air mattress and the mummy bag. It wasn't too cold. Started to rain.
The next night it is close to freezing, and the douche bag people camping next to us happen to be 5 teenagers talking about how easy their 'AP BIO' mid-term was this year until midnight. Not kidding. These people are about 8 feet away from our tent. Awesome. No. Then at 3am, my zipper gets jammed whilst down at my knee. I cannot free the zipper, therefore I am left to freeze, have stomach cramps, and pray for a quick death.
The end.
Chris, we will talk.

You know I'm training to be a cage fighter
I barely made it home. Definitely hallucinated on the way home and prayed mucho amounts. I've consumed 3 of those Monster energy drinks since 8:45pm of last night.
Allison's place is tight. Porch = scary. Underground parking spot = GOLDEN.
My neck is killing me. WHY AM I NOT SLEEPING?
I need a new bed ASAP. I broke part of mine about a month ago, and I have yet to fix it. OY. I'm just NOT caring enough. My feet are at a lower elevation than my head. Its really not that bad, actually.
I don't know what I am typing.
I am sitting here in the cold basement blogging and searching for jobs at 3am when I need to wake up in 3 hours. It really doesn't get any better than this, people.
DONE.

You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys?
Update: Napoleon Dynamite kicked major ass. END of story.
I have had it with work, and I've spent muchisimo time workin on the ol resume. I have an interview at one of my dad's offices on Thursday morning. I couldn't be more excited, seriously. I am more than ready to escape from the rat hole that is retail and the shitty-assed management that oh so appropriately follows suit. Enough is enough.
I'll be moving out by Christmas, seriously. I'm going to start checking out places closer to LoDo...hopefully Eli can skip out with me. Otherwise I'll have to go creative and find a complete stranger to live with. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Work wasn't too bad today. Did a wimpy 6-hour shift, but those are hard to come by. Had to snag some shoes this afternoon to go along with my swank new corp. wardrobe. I can dig.
After hitting the ghetto house of linen, a huge storm front was coming in, so I def. hauled it home. The clouds were looking SICK, and we had massive rotation aboot. A funnel cloud was spotted right over Stone Gate. Nope.
Heading over to Allison's in a bit to scope out her new pad. Should be sweet.
Right now I am wearing a blue Starsky & Hutch shirt, green shorts, and brown clogs. My in-house 'drobe is looking sick.
Stopped into the pet store today just to scope out the place. I played with a mini pinscher and almost cried it was so cute and little. I thought I was going to be EMOTIONAL this week. GOSH. I wanted to take him from the horrible place, right along with the feeder fish and crickets. DEATH ROW, people. DEATH freakkin row.
Better put something decent on. I'm definitely smelling coffee. I scored about 4 hours of sleep last night before work this morning at 7. MADNESS. It was totally worth it, tho. Espresso = ambrosia. My heart is crying.
Did some sweet shopping yesterday with Jason. Too much fun, indeed. PEDRO!
I caught you a delicious bass...

Eat it
Kyle, I'm sorry I haven't called. I WILL call you by this weekend.
I totally freaking ate it on my car door tonight. I slammed it accidentally in my own face. NICE.
I now have 3 blogs. I seriously can't keep up with this.
Work is sucking the ass, as per usual. EH.
Jason came out and had lunch with me this afternoon. Loved it.
This weekend is going to be a relief. Like I said, work is sucking the life out of me. The Village is coming out tomorrow...muchisimo excited here.

Peanut Butter & Jelly Time
Wow, I haven't posted in a coon's age. SICK. Well, I'll sum up on what's been goin' down:
-Went camping this weekend in South Dakota, 9 miles south of the Hot Springs with the entire fam and Jason. I didn't bring a sleeping bag pad. I am a douche. The campgrounds were FAB, equipped with showers and toilets. WEEE! In addition, we also had a kickass pool and hot tub. As you can def. tell, we were roughing it big time. Oh, and did I mention the free pancake breakfast?
-The fam is on its way back home to Indiana. The house is sure quiet without 4 crazy kids running around. I miss it.
-Back to work, once again. Things are just pissing me off, and I am looking for another job ASAP.
-I need to get on the school thing. Its like 3 weeks until school starts, and I still have to transfer and register. Eh. We'll get there. WOO!
-I desperately need to process my film from Israel. This week I am seriously lacking funds and the time, but I'll be on this within the next 2 weeks.
- Sean's wedding is this weekend, and I need to get the trolls a gift. Crikie.
-Hanging with Marc on Sunday--I need to get that off. Better talk to Sean about that today...
Welp, better get my arse in gear and get out of this place. I am going to drop off my film from this weekend before I hit work for the day. Woo freaking hoo. We're done.

-Hanging with Marc on Sunday--I need to get that off. Better talk to Sean about that today...
Welp, better get my arse in gear and get out of this place. I am going to drop off my film from this weekend before I hit work for the day. Woo freaking hoo. We're done.

Sending out an SOS
What the CRAP, people? I demand my right to use html while posting! What the freak is this uber-user troll setting? Gah!
ANYWHO, work wasn't a laugh fest. Joni (loves Chaci) pointed out that I was in fact "in a bad mood" today. Call me crazy, but working with people that drive you nuckin futs doesn't really put one in a cheery mood. MEH.
SO get this: after my 3-day vacation this weekend, I am closing 3 nights in a ROW next week. Intentional? HELLS yes! Especially when the team lead closes once and has 4 days off every week. How does this work, again?
Wow, I'm in a bitchy mood. My apologies.
I'm excited about this weekend...South Dakota is going to be AWESOME. I am soo glad that Jason is coming along, as well. SALVATION.
WHAT DEMONRY!
Days are numbered.
Allergies are kicking my ass. Better get on that.
Hey, I thought I was going to blog A LOT today. Eat it.

It feels so good when it hits your lips...
My hands are going to smell like garlic FOREVER. Jealous?
So last night I got off at 4, and met up with the fam, Tara, and Jason circa 4:45pm-ish. We all headed to Johnny Carinos for foodage, and there was much rejoicing. Upon our return, we popped in GALAXY QUEST and snuggled in for a belly laugh fest, which was undoubtedly fueled by our drunken Italian food euphoria. D.I.F.E.
Jason has an interview today (WOO!), so hopefully the company meets his standards.
CRANBERRY JUICE!
The people went and saw Spiderman 2 yesterday afternoon. I didn't see the first, and I really don't have a desire to see the second. Or the first. Ahem. Am I still talking?
Working today. Not looking forward to being stuck inside that rat hole for another two days. Ugh. I guess it will be worth it when I have this weekend off.
The kids are at the zoo AS WE SPEAK. *weep*
Jason, we're so going.
I need to get ready for work.
And yet I am still typing...
TAN HANDS
Not gonna make it, people.
Forgive me if they smell...DELICIOUS.

I'll be waitin in line
6:36 in the am, folks. I am totally crushing.
Went to bed around 1 this morning, which was incredibly stupid. I'll get over it.
Anywho, working today until later afternoon. Finally free before 10 PM! YESSSSS!
Eating some corn pops as of current, and they sure are leaving a bizarro aftertaste in the 'ol pie hole. WEIRDED OUT.
Definitely looking forward to the camping trip this weekend!! It is by an absolute miracle that I was able to snag the time off for it. Its going to be FABULOUS.
I need to stock up on some more 'camping' crap for the weekend, tho. I need to grab a new sleeping bag, b/c I think the dog peed on mine while it was in the basement. JEALOUS?
Bueno, I am really digging this summer. Granted, I only had the TRIP of my life in July, but I don't find myself wishing that I was at the Y. If I had indeed gone, I would have been missing out on a great deal of familial and/or Jason times. And this I wouldn't trade for anything.

Come on, knock on our door
So the peeps are headed out for the afternoon, and I am getting ready for work. Sean just told me that our FAVORITE employee just walked out this morning, so no one is going to cover my shift this weekend. FRANKLY, I don't give a rat's ass. EH.
Looking into rafting classes after our AWESOME experience yesterday with River Runners. It was TOO freaggin great to even talk about. I loved it.
Time for work.

Bacardi and Coke---DO IT
Wow. Its been a good while since I've been this irritated. Lack of sleep and food has definitely played a role in this evening's madness. And the fact that Aunt Flow is on her way in mere DAYS is not helping. Yes, I said Aunt Flow. Jealous?
Blah. I'm going to bed before I throw dishes against the wall. Misty is my salvation.
I need my paycheck and a fudge pop STAT.
Like I said...rafting all day tomorrow. I can't wait...I'm gonna go for a walk.
I HAVE A CRUSH ON EVERY BOY
I ate a big, red candle...JEALOUS
I have NO idea what is going on.
The kids got here on Friday night---woo! Jason came over for last night's freaggin AWESOME fiesta! Light-weight marg, anyone?? Viewage of Starsky & Hutch...DO IT. Cookie face-stuffing. Awesome.
I'm going to punch you in the ovary, right in the babymaker.
Yes, we did indeed see Anchorman this afternoon. I need to own this ASAP.
I GOT JIMMIES!
I also like to break a mental sweat...
I am CRAVING boneless buffalo wings...someone help me out.
Loving the family time with the kids. They absolutely RULE.
We're going white water rafting tomorrow ALL day. I am cracking.
LIFEJACKET
I am going to drown, and I can't wait.
"I am going to shoot you in the back of the head with a beebee gun when you're not looking...I'm serious."
Nah, he's DEFINITELY dancing.

Burger-in-hand
The radio is depressing me with its sick JOHN MAYER ticket giveaways. I am kicking myself in the ASS for not getting tickets sooner. EH. 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Yes.'
Hung out at Jason's last night, which ruled as per usual. MST 3000! WEEEEEE! Constance.
Wow, blogger is seriously posessed. It published my last post like 60-12 times. Get a grip! I'm kidding. But seriously tho. Nah. But really.
I work from 2-cl tonight. I'm NOT gonna make it.
Must jump in shower ASAP.
And on THAT note, I think I'm going to write MORE.
Holy crap, I am so jizzed to see Anchorman. Will Ferrel kills my bones. I do indeed want my own. COME SEE HOW GOOD I LOOK!
Holy shit, I'm deleting that freaking post...taking me forever. FUDGE IT DOWN, more like.
Yes. The WHOPPER is a disguting MASS of beef and ketchup. I so ate one WHILE driving home on I-25. Not a good idea. One word: DRIP.
RANT: The first Teen Wolf is the one and only. Teen Wolf 'TOO' was a huge freaking disaster that needs to go back into the hole it crawled out from. Take a HIKE, Jason Bateman! And who is this poser Styles? WHAT the freak?
5 MORE of the same post to delete.
The rents bought a new Sirento. ME LIKES.
My mom just called the radio the "Prince of the Power of the air. THE SIREN SONG!"
Wow.
WHO AM I

Joe Dirt: So you're gonna' tell me that you don't have no black cats, no roman candles, or screaming mimis?
Kicking Wing: No.
Joe Dirt: Oh come on man. You got no lady fingers, fuzz buttles, snicker bombs, church burners, finger blasters, gut busters, zippity do das, or crap flappers?
Kicking Wing: No, I don't.
Joe Dirt: You're gonna stand there, owning a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no whistling bungholes, no spleen spliters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker donts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?
Kicking Wing: No... because snakes and sparklers are the only ones I like.
Joe Dirt: Well that might be your problem, it's not what you like, it's the consumer.
Yes. The Dirt rules. Happy Fourth.
FUDGE it up!
Work was a bit overwhelming today, but I am just OVER it. Dealing with douche bag co-workers, however...its crazy how SMALL things can turn people into sobbing bags of snot.
Debating whether or not to head to Doug's house right now...oy. I don't know. I need to change, tho...seriously. If I didn't have to open tomorrow, I probably would be more keen to go. Yes, I just said 'keen.' Jealous?
Bought and watched PARTY MONSTER last night. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Seth Green was HI-larious, however. EH. Dinner with Allison was marvelous. FOOD. I just need to RETURN to Champs.
My legs feel dead.
AWAKE
Working tomorrow, then escaping to the casa de Jason for most excellent of times. Let the games begin.
