I suppose I should announce, in case anyone's interested, that I am back in Warrenton.  For the next few weeks, until the place I am (hoping) to move into is available, I am living with the lovely Gelly and her gracious parents.  There were many factors that lead me to where I find myself now, that being on Gelly's guest bed.  A number of those ( Read more... )

MY UNCLE SETH BOUGHT A PS3!!!!!

If I had a rooftop to shout it from, I would.

He came into my room after being out all morning and told me his sad Wii story.  Apparently, Steph told him Target had Wiis this morning, but by the time he heard they'd already been open for an hour.  You know those suckers were gone.  So he tried Toys R' Us.  He was 34th ( Read more... )

I wake up this morning at the last minute because, once again, I barely got sleep last night.  I'm a groggy, cranky, spectrum-of-emotions mess.  I get dressed quick enough seeing as how I don't give a fuck how I look and trek to my car, shovel in tow because I KNOW this isn't gonna be fun ( Read more... )

OK. I once got a Jones Soda bottle cap that said "Call your dad", and it was my dad's birthday. But I recently got a fortune that is 10 times spookier ( Read more... )

I had a great couple days. Saw Arsenic with the lovely ladies, Gelly and Amanda, and met up with Sarah and Nick there. Had an impromptu party at Amanda's with her, Nick, Sally, and Jose Cuervo, which was a blasty blast. Saw the fam the next morning, which was nice, then had a hilarious night at work with Will, Damon, and Joey. Sure I was tired ( Read more... )

I feel empowered. So ok, going to Jiffy Lube isn't a BIG deal, but a) I've never gone by myself before, and b) Certainly have never been able to pay for what needs to be done before. The first time I tried to find my way in, I passed the garage and ended up at the next door car wash. Stopping by at my aunt's salon, which is in the same shopping ( Read more... )

Yesterday was going great. Yeah, I had to come in an hour early, but it got really good. Was in a fantastic, witty mood; got to watch Joey fluster on the cafe reg trying to help with the morning rush; chilled with the lovely Jasmine, with whom I do not work enough; was ridiculously entertaining with Will for the customers; got Christmas shopping ( Read more... )

Woke up today and... said Iiiiii'm gonna make somebody love me...
Sorry. Too much Franz Ferdinand in DDR. Which I'm getting pretty good at, by the by.

Woke up today and found a note taped to the bathroom door, along with a $100 bill. Compensation for house sitting. Not a bad way to start the day, me thinks.

I'm really bummed I have to work closing ( Read more... )

Do you ever feel contemplative, but you're unsure of what to contemplate?  Or rather, you have plenty to contemplate, but you can't focus on one thing and end up bouncing from thought to thought, not giving each one the proper consideration it needs, and instead developing a headache from contemplating so many different things and getting nowhere ( Read more... )
