i could use a little fuel myself...and we could all use a little change...
running on empty...
those 3 words can easily describe how i've been feeling these last few days...
and not just in the "poetic metaphor" sense...
i mean i really have been running on empty...
you name it...and odds are it's empty...
bank account: i've been living off of the $20.19 to my name for the past 6 days...and sadly...this does not include the buying of christmas presents...lame...i always love going out and getting gifts for everyone...and i didn't get to do it...just the idea saddens me even more...
chloe's gas tank: it saddens me to report that the gas light has been on for 5 of the past 7 days. it all comes back to the bank account...i've had to stretch out what i can...a quick splash to get me to and from work is all i've been able to afford. bank account: $15.19
lappy: i've been doing a bunch of movie conversions...and i keep managing to fall asleep without plugging lappy into a (active) outlet...i had to add the (active) because thrice i've plugged into the power strip under my desk without checking if it is turned on...booooooo to my brother for turning it off because he thinks his computer is the only thing plugged into it...let it be, son!
tiny: where there's no power for lappy...there's also no power for tiny. i'm sorry...i didn't do a proper introduction...tiny, meet everyone. everyone, meet tiny...my 30gb video ipod...yeah i didn't get a nano...the bookstore was "running on empty" of them when i went...and boss convinced me to go for the video...anyways...back to the empty...yeah...if the battery is empty...that means i've been using it...right??? maybe thats an "empty" that i should have. bank account: 15.19 (but the $180 charge on my credit card is waiting for me)
cell phone: (why doesn't my sidekick have a name??? oh...cause i've had 11 of them!) as if i didn't have enough problems with my cell phone...this week has been extra trying...the service has been constantly interrupted at best and has me missing important phone calls, messages, and texts at the worst possible times...i've seriously gotta call tmobile and see what i can get...i'll do that later tonight. i've also had the (active outlet) problem here once or twice this week. bank account: $15.19
daily planner: i've had nothing to do...not even work (because we're on shortened hours)...so i've been so bored recently...everyone went home for the holidays...but my home is in tucson...which has been mathmatically proven by a p. manning (as was the hibiscus) to be the most boring city in tucson...(sorry, peter...couldn't miss a chance to make fun of you there)
my stomach: yeah...i've stayed at home until noon each day with a very specific purpose in mind...pig out!!! i've been trying to eat only one big meal a day so that i don't feel hungry all the time. that or i've had my mom buy me lunch to bison witches...thanx again, mom. direct effect: i've also seen a loss of 8 pounds in the past week. bank account: $15.19 (but i've also, genuinely, accidentally used my mom's bank card for a impulse cinnabon purchase...sorry, mom)
my arms: ella's not here...and thats been rough...we spent so much of the semester together...it's just not something i've had to deal with...but i guess it had to come sometime. but we've talked over aim and txts and on the phone...thats helped me get through it. bank account: $15.19 (which probably would have been around -$38.92 by now cause i'd want to go out and do stuff with ella...kidding babe...but i couldn't resist)
thats all i can think of for now...it's not that i want u to feel sorry for me...everything changes tomorrow when i get paid tomorrow (hopefully a fat check awaits me)...i just wanted to take note of how these things kinda stack up...it's intresting...
there is one thing that isn't empty right now...my pouch of capri sun...it was the last one...and it doesn't have a straw...dammit!
heh...i just thought of another thing that isn't empty...
