hot water
i noticed yesterday while fixing my ramen-in-a-pyrex-measuring-cup lunch, that the water-cooler in the food room has a 'cold' spout and a 'hot' spout. this will be very helpful now, because i will be able to microwave in half the time.
half the time!
someone commented on my ramen lunch and said that i need "variety". like chopped up carrots. oh. okay.
i'm almost done reading my soroity girls book so i will go finish it right now.

stuff
ALF is back. i remember buying alf trading cards at the 7-eleven in pasco when i lived there. i was with my brother. either that, or it was millhouse buying alf cards at the kwik-e-mart and he was with bart. i don't even know what my real memories now thanks to tv.
no no. now that i think about it millhouse had alf "in pog form".
so i definatly bought alf cards at the 7-eleven. and i think someone else that i know had pogs...

afternoon sleepies
my eyes are tired and itchy.
i need to go to the store after work but i left my wallet at home. i
now instead of going to the store first i will go home, nap , get my wallet and then go to the store.
bah.
i'm getting the afternoon thrift store itchies also. i know i went there yesterday. and i don't want to spend money. and i tired. so i'm not going to go today. but maybe i'll go to the m-ville stores this weekend. they are the best anyway.
after re-reading "thrift store itchies" i realize that it could have two different meanings. One, that i am excited to go thrift shopping. and 2) i bought something from the thrift store (most likely clothes) and now have a rash because of unwashed or bug infested clothes. gross dude.
crotch itchies?
ew.

dinner for pizza
i picked brent up this afternoon in front of the art museum and then i picked corey up in front of work and we all went to pizza-land for pizza. it was good.
i got a coke.
then i dropped corey off and took brent home. we watched "spellbound" which i've been wanting to see, but the library doesn't have. it was really great and everyone should see it.
then brent and i discussed jeans and tattoos.
i want more jean pairs and a tattoo.
i think i'm going to try and sell some clothes tomorrow to make some money. then later i can buy more jeans.

i just went to the goodwill
i found a few things. now brent wants to go back tonight at 5. i wasn't sure if they closed at 5 or at 8 because their website is confusing. so i decided to call.
this is how the conversation went:
lady: (in a foreign accent) ballard goodwill. how can i help you?
me: yes. what time do you close?
l: what?
m: what time do you close?
l: NO.
M: what are your hours?
l: green tags. green tags.
m: oh..okay.
l: green tags are $1.29
m: do you close at 5?
l: NO. at 9.
m: okay thank you
so apparently they close at 9. who knew.
i had to stand in line behind some crotchety old bag who was buying pretty much all of the crap that they had. tarps, plastic tape holders, socks, socks, socks, stuffed animals. it was gross. you could tell she was eyeing the clerk too. she'd say "watch out. that is BREAKABLE. that picture frame. you better move it or it'll BREAK" then when it was time for her to pay she gave the clerk some piece of paper. i had already waited very patiently, mind you, for a really long time. so i finally moved. and the clerk had to call someone over to help her. i hate this old bag. she better not be there when i go back.
then, as i was leaving someone called over the intercom "can i have a price check on a rubrics cube?"
then end.

smelly belly
i just swabbed my belly button hole out because it smells. i guess that i've been neglecting it in the shower. i've noticed that both today and yesterday, when i do my daily "smelly belly" check and put finger in there, that is smells gross.
i tried to clean it out with alcohol but it still smells.
this is bothering me.

corey called me thunder thighs
he is threatening to terminate my blogging access if i don't "write something already"
i told him i already wrote an entry and he said "no i think you are confusing that with the dump you just took"
when i told him i would just go write another entry about him calling me "thunder thighs" he said he would just delete it.
so, if this isn't here tomorrow. you know what happend.
just a heads up.

i love my new slipper shoes but my feet do not.
we walked down to fremont today to eat lunch. i love my new shoes a lot. but it it's hot and my feet are sweating, they are really uncomfortable. i think i also need to rest my feet so they can gain strength or something. let the calouses build up. corey yelled at me and said he would never by me shoes again. and then he said i shouldn't be wearing them all the time anyway and i should try and keep them nice. NOOOOO!
i love them and i love how cute they are.
i'm torn.

i ate a big mixed meat sandwhich yesterday
and i forgot to take my camera with me.
i ate the cheese filled hot dog next to a corndog (stick removed) on top of a hamburger inside of a bun. the best part was the cheese hotdog. SEE, the thing of it is, is that the hamburger tastes like nothing when it's under something that is bursting with flavor and cheese, like the cheese filled hot dog. or even the corndog. a hamburger alone is good. but when these meats are all mixed together they are not so exciting. i ended up eating most of it. and corey finished the remaining corndog/hamburger left over (i ate all of the cheese hot dog because it was the best part)
anyway. i haven't crapped in two days or more (i don't remember) and i'm starting to get worried. i weighted myself after i ate the mixed meat sandwhich. the scale said that i weighed 4 pounds more than normal. i thought that maybe since i was using a different scale it might be wrong. so i went to my parents house and weighed myself there. this is my usual weighing spot. every time i do it there it is ALWAYS the same. this time it said it was 4 pounds more than normal. so i knew it wasn't lying. anyway the mixed meat sandwhich was almost all i ate yesterday. and now today i am hungry again. who knew?

today is my day
last night we went to capital hill to break in my new slippiety flops. not a good idea. now i have a new set of blisters on my feet. it's actually a blister on top of another blister. maybe i'll need to wear my other shoes today.
speaking of today, and something being on top of something else.. i'm going to my brothers b-day today. it is there that i plan to top my feat of "cheese filled hot dog on top of a hamburger inside of a bun" that took place the last time i was there for cats b-day.
no one there appreciated what i was doing then. but this time my parents will be there, and so will corey. i know they support me.
this time i plan on going out bigger and more hotdog-y.
yes. this time, it will be a cheese filled hot dog, in a bun, next to a corndog (stick removed) in a bun, ON TOP of a hamburger, INSIDE OF ANOTHER BUN.
originally when i proposed this idea to my brother i ended it "with ice cream on top" but he said no. so that will have to happen next time.
stay tuned for pictures and updates.

back from shopping
my shopping experience at ross was fruitful.
i did have trouble deciding on which sheets to get. they did not have a good selection of full sized sheets. which leads me to believe that we should buy a new bed, for the sole purpose of having a better seletion of sheets at ross. corey? what do you think? a new bed? OKAY!
i couldn't decide between one yellow 280 thread count fitted sheet. and a set of white 250 count sheets. we don't use a flat sheet, so it would have been useless. and even though they were less thread count than the other, and i couldn't open them to feel how soft they were, i still wanted them. but they were more expensive. so i got the yellow. i also got a new bathroom rug, a set of pants hangers , and a new stock pot to replace the one i ruined the other day.
full of fruits!

reading
i am reading a book called "pledged. the secret life of sorieties". it is good. but people keep coming around and wanting to know what i'm reading. then i get embarassed about it. then they tease me. i should be more sure of myself and my choice of reading material.
i need to go shopping today again. this time i will go to "ross" to get bed sheets because ours are rough and gross.
it smells like the heater is burning dust. it's hot in here. my period pains hurt.
last night i had a dream that i took too many tylenol pm's because i thought they were period pills. i guess in my dream life i usually took 5+ period pills. and i asked corey to get me tylenol and he gave me one. then i took three more. then i shook another three into my hand and took one before he said something about my excessive use of pills. then i started to freak out. i didn't die in my dream and i am at work now, very alert and alive, so my guess is that i am okay and didn't "sleep" swallow pills last night.

shoes
i got new shoes today. TWO PAIRS! this pair here will be my flipity flop replacements. they are cute and slipper like. i love them.
the other pair are called "kowalski" and they were on the sale rack. i saw a pair that was not on the sale rack but they were $100. they were red and cute. but mine are grey suede and they have a red and blue strip. i don't know how else to descibe except for "sporty fashion shoes" they are not something i would usually get. but i was being compulsive.
i ALSO bought some jeans form the levi's store but i have to hem them still.
i am ass butt tired now.

non-stop nothing
as soon as i got home after work i started doing stuff. i don't even know what it was. but i think i either read some books or did something in the internet. who knows. then i did some dishes. i did all of them. i made hamburger things a while ago i just now washed the broiler pan. christ. anyway. i didn't do as thorough of a job as i usually do (bleaching the sink and what not) i did vacuum the floor and i feel better now. there was a piece of lettece on the floor earlier that kept getting stuck on my foot. corey and i put together are the most disgusting people i know. the other day i cut my finger and the only bandaids i had were those little tiny ones that don't work. it kept getting wet or sweating off so i just kept taking them off in the same spot i was putting the new one on. instead of throwing them away i started a pile on top of the cd self. it's easy to remember where something is if you just leave it in one spot. you know? THEN i was making pizza dough and the band aid kept flapping around so i took it off and left it on counter.
now that i said that no one is ever going to want to eat at my house. but i am very clean. i always was my hands.
it's getting late and i am not tired. corey wants to go on a walk.
smoofler.
he says that i am not allowed to wear my new shorty shorts that i bought yesterday.

at home
nothing is more satisfying then coming home with a big pile of books from the library, and retreating to the bathroom to take a big dump.
i am in hog heaven.
note to corey:
i want to change the template thingy-doo. i'm scared to try and do it myself. because i think i might break something beyond fixability. if you know what i mean. when you read this will you fix it for me? i love you. you are so handy.

nissin brand oriental flavor ramen is gross.
that is why it is always on sale for 10/$1.00.
maruchan brand oriental flavor ramen is not gross. that is why it is more expensive (7/$1.00)
i think i can splurge and spend the extra 15 cents for good ramen. right?
bah.

working bee
my hair has been frizzing out lately. i bought some new hair goop thinking it would help. it didn't. it's getting really long and i think the ends were just getting gross. so i cut some yesterday. and then i cut some more today. it didn't look good at first. because it was still wet. and it never looks good when it's wet. but as soon as it dries it's all curly again. i just need to be patient. so i was sitting here at my desk. feeling my hair. and i noticed there was longer pieces in the back. so i starting cutting again. THIS IS BAD. i always do this. i cut my hair. and it's never good so i keep cutting every day.
i don't know. maybe it's okay for now. who knows. i didn't cut much but you can tell it looks shorter. at least i can.
thingy-doo's to do today:
-go home: get money, deposit slip
-go to FM and deposit money
-mail the mail
-buy stamps before the mail is mailed
-pick up liberry books
-home: wash at least some dishes
-rest tired aching mind and body
-wash clothes for the rest of the week
-eat dinner
-watch jepordy to see if guy who has been on for the past two-plus weeks is still on
-make a poop
i can't think of anything else there is for me to do. but i'm sure there is something.

bad bad dream
last night i had the worst dream EVER. i went to bed around 11. i had this dream where i was sleeping. and i woke up and looked on the nightstand and the alarm clock was gone. i looked around and i couldn't see it anywhere. i got up and looked out the window to see if it was outside. it wasn't there either. so then i woke up all wierded out. i went out to the big room and said "the alarm clock is gone." and corey looked at me. then i said "the alarm clock is missing. the one on the nightstand" and he said "what alarm clock"
so i got up and went back to the bedroom and looked at the nightstand and it was dark. i got on the bed and looked out the window. i have no idea why i thought it might be out there. maybe someone came in and took it and they were still outside. i don't know. so i layed down and thought about what was going on. i looked at the night stand and my robot clock was there. then i remembered: we don't even have the alarm clock that i thought was missing. it doesn't exist anymore. OKAY! nobody came in and took it while i was sleeping!
no one is waiting outside my window with my alarm clock!
when corey came to bed i woke up and said "i think i was dreaming about that old clock that we don't have anymore. we're not missing the alarm clock" he said "i know" and everything was better.

hot dog heaven
we ate hot dogs for dinner. two hot dogs is not a complete meal. let me tell you. i am starving right now. corey said that his favorite thing to do with leftover hotdog water is make kool-aid with it. GROSS.
we went to two bike stores today. bikes are outragiously priced. one i saw was $6500!! christ! i'm not that serious about riding a bike. i was thinking more along the lines of $200. so i guess i'll just have to start saving my money. then i'll buy a used bike. my heart is crushed. the whole time we were out driving all i could see was people on their bikes enjoying life. and there i was in my car dying a little every time someone road by.
i am too tired to do dishes still. TOO TIRED!

food boom
we just went food shopping and spent twice as much as we usually do. we were totally out of food and i feel a lot better now that the cupboards are full.
today i saw this girl on a bike and she was really cute and her bike was really cool. i want to be her. we're talking about getting bikes to ride around. corey wants a bmx bike. i want some kind of "10-speed" or whatever they're called. one with curly handle bars. thats the kind the girl i saw had.
i want a bike!!

i want to go home and sleep
i feel light headed and sleepy probably due to lack of proper nutrition. i ate a toffee bar, half an apple and an odwalla drink, which you'd think would be enough. but it's not. i'm needing to go to the b-room too.
i have errands to run but i really don't want to.

i jumped from a really tall diving board
i'm not lying. it was like a scene out of starting over. and i was rain. and i had to jump off the tallest diving board EVER. but i did it. and it took me less than 2 hours. (probablly only 5 minutes but it seemed like forever) as you can see in this picture, my hand is up probably by mouth. that is my thinking posistion. hmmm. should i do this? can i do this? will i do this? i can't do this. my hand won't let go.
the whole dock was swaying while i was standing up there. and that made it a lot harder to do it.
i am just making excusses for myself.
but there was another girl who was out there and she said that she was up there for a lot longer and there was a big line behind her and she didn't do it. i asked her "if i do it will you do it?"
and she said "yes" and THAT is what gave me the courage to do it.
only not really.
in other news, by back hurts and my ears are filled with lake water.
the end

my butt hurts.
yesterday corey and i did a months worth of weekend activities in one day. i am very tired and now i have noticed that my bottom hurts to sit on.
friday night corey promised that we could eat breakfast out on saturday morn because he would be getting paid and we didn't have any food.
so first thing in the morn we drove down to ballard, got money and hit hatties hat. there was only one other table of peeps because we were there so early. it was good and then we left and got gas for the car. then i think we went home for a minute. after that we walked down to fremont to see the parade. there was a million people out. and it was too hot. like at like 90 degreees. it probably wasn't but i sometimes like to exagerate. so we walked around and then the nakkie's came out on bikes. i had never experienced so many nakkies before. there is one man, who will be burned into my memory forever. he was older and he was wearing a big billow-y shirt that was tucked into a butt bag around his waist. he was not wearing pants. it bothered be because he kept looking down at his wiener. i don't know. it just seems weird that someone would be in the naked part of the parade and choose to still wear a shirt but no pants. i don't get it.
anyway. then we walked back home. and got in the car. first we drove to the U bookstore to buy presents for my dad and bro-ham. we got this book for my brother called "you are here" that is really cool and every time i go to the bookstore i see it and want to by it. i like looking at maps.
we got my dad two books and i got a magazine and corey got a marketing book.
so we left the store and drove to the canoe place behind the stadium. we got a canoe in a matter of minutes and then we were off .
we were out for about two hours. it was a good time. your butt starts to hurt after a while and then it goes numb. my legs also cramped up at one point that wasn't fun either. next time we need to wear swim suits and beach the canoe somewhere and go swimming. i saw kids that were jumping off of the overpass to nowhere. which is totally crazy because it's so high up. and i also saw where the naked man beach is.
i started to get cranky because i was hot and sunburned and my butt hurt so we went home. because we were in the car driving so much i got sunburned on my driving arm worse then my passenger arm. it looks weird.
after we got back home i rested and corey bought me aloe from market time.
i got ready and then we walked down to fremont again to go eat dinner. we ate at kwan jai. (where else?) and then we walked around to see bands. we saw one band that was sort of tucked away and they sounded really bad and there was some people watching them but they were all on the side eating or whatever. and there was one guy in the middle sitting down and watching.
then we walked to gasworks and then we stopped at market time to get breakfast for this morning and then we went home.
today we have to go back to fremont to see more bands and i hope i don't die. after we're done we have to drive to m-ville to see my dad have his day and to eat food.
a long long weekend.
i also had a really weird dream about eating pho with eva. only we were at my great grampa's house. and first i ordered a bowl of cinnamin toast crunch. and then a medium #1. i ate all of it then they took it away and i ordered more ceral and a small chicken. then ran out of cinnamin toast crunch so they brought be pops instead. i was worried that i wouldn't be able to eat all of it. and there was no bottled sauces to put in it. i was sad.
my dream continued from there but i have already written so much that i cannot write anymore.

still at work. a few minutes later
okay. i'm supossed to stay until 5. that's okay with me. an extra $10 dollaridoos.
i need to remember to:
-turn the phone on night service
-turn the tv camera to the outside by my desk off
-turn the answering machine on
-turn the copy machine off
i should be getting a hefty check this thursday.
it seems really weird to be here so late on friday. i don't get it. can't people just save it for monday. i don't know, even though home is only a few minute away but i know it's going to be about 85 degrees out there. and the gas light in my car has been on all week. that is how poor i am. i have enough money to either buy a toffee bar and lie to corey about where the money went, or do laundry so i have something nice to wear tomorrow. since i cannot lie to corey and i will most likely slop around tomorrow, i should instead spend the money on ice cream bars at market time. they are cheaper than a toffee bar.
ice cream for dinner. ice cream for dinner.
oh! and i made muffins this morning for breffix and there is a few left still.
muffins for dinner!!

at work
while checking my bank statement online earlier today, i noticed an "uncollected funds charge" for $15
what the crap is an uncollected funds charge. i didn't bounce a check. but i will now. as soon as BofA gets a hold of my check.
i just don't get it. maybe they know something i don't.
i will call them.
i am waiting around at work and i don't know how long i am supposed to stay. what the butt.

friday morn.
it's still too hot. it hasn't stopped being the same hottness since last night. and now it's worse in the big room because the sun is coming up and being unbearably hot. all of the dishes are dirty again. and i think the all of the clothes need to be washed. i don't understand how this happens so fast. i just washed clothes last weekend. four loads of worth!!!
maybe this weekend i need to go through all the clothes and pick out two outfits for both of us. one "work" outfit, which is to be worn 5 days in a row. and a "play" outfit, which can be worn on the weekends, after work, and on holidays.
this, along with the two water glasses each rule, should clear up a lot of the clutter around here.
i really don't want to do the dishes. but i know if i do them now, i'll like myself more when i get home from work and there is less to do.

raw display of emotion
why is it so hot out. it's hotter in our bedroom then the big room. i wish we could just eat ice cream for dinner. but the all food we have is for the makings of a toppingless pizza. last night i made sketti with sauce. and i put the leftover sauce and sketti in a box for corey's lunch. then i put leftover sauce in a box for putting on a pizza tonight. i put them in the cold box sauce stacked on top of sketti and thought to myself
'you should put the sketti on top of the sauce so that corey doesn't get confused'
so this morning corey was in charge of putting his lunch in is "satchel". usually i hand his lunch to him. like a mother hands a lunch to her son. and i usually watch him to make sure he puts it in there and doesn't try and stuff it in the garbage. this after noon he called and said "check the cold box" and i said "why?" excitedly, like maybe he came home during the day and put a big cake or other yummy food surprises in there while i was at work. i looked. nothing was in there. he said "i took the sauce instead of the sketti." apparently he picked the sauce up because there was less in there. and the sketti was filled to the brim.
so tonight i'm going to have to extract the sauce from the sketti. or make sketti pizza. or just make new different sauce.
i read police beat for a very long time today. so long that i think i read all of them. but probably not.

still at work
someone is making noise downstairs and it sounds like something is dying. i think they might be playing a guitar or something.
i can go home in a half hour and i know that when i get home it's going to smell like dirty diapers. or more like dirty dishes. same thing.
anyway. i think i will try and do half of them, then wait for corey to get home so he can help me. yesterday we were at the point where ALL of the plates were in use. all the silverware was too, but that happens a lot. what i find really annoying is that some how the glasses get used really quickly and we only drink water. i don't mind re-using my water glass. and i wouldn't mind re-using corey's water glass if it meant not washing them so much. maybe i should make a new rule: each person gets two glasses, one for water, and the other for coffee, tea, or milk.
yuppers. there is going to be some big changes around there....

i think that the site is up and working. if it's not then i'm probably typing in some kind of ghost blog. and that would be really scary because ghosts are scary.
i think i just saw a flash of eagle fly across the window.
the phone at work is ringing more then yesterday. i think at one point three lines rang and two of the calls were for the same person.
now i have to go "work"
(work = finding books or cds at the library to reserve)

over pass to NOWHERE
today i went to the arboretum with frontal. we walked on the overpass that doesn't go anywhere. i think it's really eerie. but it might not be. it's out in the open and anyone can just go there. so who knows. there's lots of leftover party garbage. if it was more elusive than it would be COOLER. there was also a lot of men walking around. brent informed me they were cruising and it bothered me because i felt out of place.
i'm really craving a toasted cheese and tomato sammich on hamburger bun but i don't think we have any tomatoes.
TOASTED SAMMICH. (a on bun) there was this place in iowa city called george's that actually had just a bun with cheese on it. and it was really cheap. and good. that's what i want right now but on a bigger more substantial bun and with a tomatoe in the middle.
no sugar diet.
i'm having cravings all the time and it's annoying.
corey is eating ramen straight out of the package like it's a candy bar or something.
candy.

after work i went to target. i needed to get some more of those sponge-on-a-soap-filled-stick re-fills before i could do anymore dishes. i bought some from fred-n-meyer yesterday but i got some that were meant for a different sponge on a stick. i thought maybe i could jam it on there and make it fit. but it's a crappy sponge anyway. so i had to go to target to get the scotch brite brand.
then i went to whole foods to get yuppie tooferpaste because i can't use regular toofer paste since i started using tom's of maine. my mom got weleda brand "salt tooferpaste" and i wanted to try some. i was there at about 4-ish and there was a butt load of peeps there. i felt weird buying one thing, so i got a thing a chapstick too.
i don't want to cook tonight. i wonder if corey will be okay with eating teriyaki.
this morning some dummy ran into the bus while it was turning the corner. you know when a truck has a diagram on the back saying "wide turns, don't get in the way, dummy"? well that is exactly what happened. so the bus was just sitting there. in turny mode. there was police directing traffic. the guy who i think did it looked like a tool. he had long wispy hair in a pony. gross.

a today and before that a yesterday
i was really busy yesterday and today at work. it's nice being busy because the day goes by fast. today apparently there was going to be a cake for a bunch of peeps past b-day's. i wanted to stay. but then i decided that i didn't need extra crap food. because yesterday i ate out with eva and before that i got a toffee bar. the day before that corey brought a toffee bar home too. so i had toffee bar's two days in a row. but corey doesn't know about the second one. so don't tell him.
two things:
1.today i took a nap after work. i had a dream that i was supossed to file something that was on the nightstand but either i didn't want to do it or i didn't know where to file it. in the dream i kept looking up and seeing it just sitting there waiting to be filed and dreading it.
2.the other day when i was going though my desk i found a "fart machine" it's this little black box that looks like a pager. there is an orange button and a LED light that lights up when the button is pushed. i have no idea what it's supossed to do because it doesn't make any noise and there no speaker hole for a fart noise to come out. so who knows.
FART MACHINE

last night
last night when i was almost asleep, i started to feel the earwax in my ear leaking into my brain. it was a really disgusting feeling and i never ever want to feel it again. after i finally got to sleep i had a dream about going shopping for snacks that i could put in my desk. i bought a big jar of apple sauce and cinnamin graham crackers. it was a good dream.
right now i have a box and a half of nature vally yogurt covered granola bars. they are my favorite. but i need some other snacks that are desk friendly. the girl before me left really gross dishes in the drawer. she's a dummy because i have access to all of her old email. she emailed a friend saying something like "you know my boss who moved in with her boyfriend when she was 17 and he was 22. and they been with each other for 8 years? OHMIGOD. and she didn't do any of my work when i was gone. OHMIGOD"
i just don't know why anyone would use work email to talk about someone they work with. that is really dumb. oh well. after seeing things that she writes and the pictures she has downloaded i have made the decision that she is stupid. done and done.
anywho. today is ceramics. i need to make a note to myself about stuff to do after work and before ceramics.
self. please do these things before you leave for ceramics:
-make change for laundry
-wash corey jeans and any other emergancy clothes
-take back library books
-take stupid gift for stupid gift exchange
tonight after i get home me and corey are going to go see a show at the crocadile. i am excited because we're going out.

sunless day
me and hard-corey just got back from warren g. magna-doodle park.
it's an okay park. but a little on the dumpy side. anyway. it wasn't that sunny out but some how i managed to get my shoulders sun burnt. WHATEVER. my face is okay and that is all that matters.
last night we bought magzine stuff at the magazine store. i got a "real simple" magazine because i'm a dork (and because there isn't a new lucky and i'm not so interested in the new nylon with avril butt-face on the cover)
corey got some other magazine that i don't remember and then we both sort of got the new mcsweeny's thingy-doo. it's all full of comic stuff. i'm not a comic person. but there is one that they have in the back of nest and i like that one. it's in here. so i read it.
we also rented kill bill which was stupid. but i'm sure everyone else liked it. i think corey liked it. but i read a magazine INSTEAD. we got thirteen which we haven't watched yet but will in about two minutes.
in conclusion...
i'm going to go scratch my sunburn and bug bites.

a wednesday?
okay. before i went to work today i was really nervous. but then after i got there is wasn't so bad. but i was really bored. i'm allowed to use the internet there but the computer is a dump. and i still feel weird about using it. so i looked up bus times. i can ride the #31 bus there. if i walk down to fremont. so i might do that later. but other than that i just sat there. i cleaned the desk out a little. there is still a drawer full of dirty dishes. i need to bring a water bottle. because i get really light headed and i think it's because i don't eat or drink anything.
nick called and said we could go eat at dukes. i am excited.
oh yeah, something else really eeire: ocean beauty is next door to ags in alaska. ocean beauty is also next door to wear i work now. WHOA!!
i need to wash clothes for corey and myself tonight. dingle dangle the witch is dead.

i went to work
today was the day. of working.
mostly what i did today was answer the phones. it was really nerve racking.
it is an eight line phone. but i don't think any more than three people would ever call at once. today two people called at the same time and i almost shit my pants. most of my day consisted of me sitting looking at the phone and waiting for it to ring.
anywho, i'm excited to go back and start answering the phones again and get used to doing that. i want to practice i guess. i'm really tired now because after work i went straight to eva's and then to ceramics.
job.

i have to go to work today
it's 9:25 or something. i think i'll try and leave around 9:47 or so.
i wish i was able to walk to work. or bus and then walk. or walk and then bus. i should look into that.
i'm starting to get nervous. like my tummy is rumbling.
and my hair is wet and i'm afraid it won't dry in time.
last night i had a dream about starting over. i knew some people that lived in the house or something.
i need to go put my face on!!
i hope i don't fuck shit up!!
