Take off your shirt... Seriously? It's like you're PHOTOSHOPPED.
Tuesday (5/24) → I went to lunch at Boston Market (do you guys have those? or are they a local thing?) and got a chicken sandwich. IT HAD A FUCKING SHARP-ASS BONE IN IT. LIKE THE SIZE OF A TOOTHPICK EXCEPT A LITTLE SHORTER AND THICKER. SICK. IT LIKE, POKED ME AND IT WAS SO FUCKING TRAUMATIZING AND THEY GAVE US OUR MONEY BACK BUT YOU CAN'T UNDO THAT SHIT. I decided I wanted to go vegetarian, for just a week to start. That didn't last though because the next day as I pulled up to Bruegger's, I realized I wouldn't be able to have my turkey-muenster-softwich and I can't fucking live without those, okay. So I am just chicken-cautious rn, ever since my near-fatal contraction of Poultry Boneacoccus.
I was hysterical after work, so Jason came and got me and brought me to the gym with him because my ex is creeping me the fuck out and/or stalking me. His team was there, high school gymnastics, and when he dismissed them, one of them BOOKED it over to me, "HI I'M ASHLEY." and I was like, "Hi!" and then she ran away screaming "SO CUTE!!!!" He also introduced me to Bailey, who I've heard so much about, he always said I'd like her and I did. Ashley, team matchmaker, noticed that I had a silver ring with tiny diamonds on my left hand. She flew over to Jason and whispered something and he said, "No, no, that's hers, she just wears it." "OH. Are you going to get her one?! YOU SHOULD GET HER ONE. *runs away*" lolol. AND THEN I BOUNCED A LOT. They thought I was a stuntwoman, "CAN YOU SHOW US ONE OF YOUR STUNTS?!?!" lol I wish, okay. I did learn how to do a three-foot high fall last time I was there, though. AND YOU JUST KEEP GOING HIGHER AND HIGHER.
Wednesday → My family went out to dinner where, again, the vegetarianism did not last. I had a huge breakdown about growing up and how much I hate it because my mom said she noticed that "I've been changing", like it was meant to be a fucking compliment but that is like my biggest fear. And then she was saying all of this shit that was meant to console me but only made shit worse and ugh ugh :( We stopped for ice cream and then my grandma needed to see who won Idol even though none of us give a shit.
Thursday → Work, but I covered all that crap in a previous post. After, Molly, Jason and I went to a bar on the lake because a local radio station does this thing every Thursday in summer, where they pick a different lake and have a party and things. It was fun but SO busy, we had to sit on the edge of a dock. Our friend Mary is moving to Thailand to be a teacher and we talked about going to visit over Christmas. I actually think that would be really cool. It's just a matter of spreading my money properly because I really, really want to go to NY and LA soon too. So idk.
We met Tony for karaoke because he's in town this weekend. We had a blast but I always have fun with him. His sister and her husband were there too. I definitely got drunk, which I suppose is protocol for karaoke, but. Everyone in there totally loved us, we did The Bad Touch, Bohemian Rhapsody, Baby Got Back, and then Tony and Jason did a Michael Jackson duet lol. I was so glad they got along, I was a little worried about it going in, tbh. There was this kid I went to MIDDLE SCHOOL with, GOD I hated him and he was so fucked up and creepy back then and he's mentally damaged now and god he was annoying. AND THEN, THE BEST EVER (EXCEPT NOT REALLY) - my mom's ex-husband was fucking there. OKAY so I don't know when he got there or what, but I noticed when I was already drunk. I saw him across the bar and I was like, "OH MY GOD TONY WILL YOU GO ASK THAT GUY IF HIS NAME IS BRAD?!?!" What guy, where. "OVER THERE PLEASE GO ASK HIM IF HIS NAME IS BRAD." LOL, no, that's creepy. But then I saw him more clearly because he turned and it WAS him and I just put my head down on my hand and said "oh my god oh my god" like 100 times in a row. HE CAME OVER LATER AND WAS LIKE,
Brad: HI, remember me? Brad? *holds out hand and smiles creepily*
Me: Of course I do! I wasn't sure if that was you or not, I was like, 'Is that Brad is that Brad' lol.
Brad: Yeah and then you were like, 'Boy has he aged!'
Me: LOL, ~no~.
Brad: Well it's nice to see you. You look great. How's your mom.
Me: Oh she's good!
Brad: Does she live around here still?
Me: Yeah! She left for awhile but she's back, yeah.
Brad: OK well tell her I say hi.
lol. And then we saw him talking to some chick he was with and Tony was like, "YOUR MOM IS WAY HOTTER THAN HER." Jason was like, "We should probably go tell her what a dick he is lol". Later he sang some song about ~missing his baby~ and Jason & Molly filmed it on their phones and sent it to my mom lol sdlkfhja. But like how awkward, if I would have known he was there, I wouldn't have gotten so into Baby Got Back. People there were fun, though. They kept asking us to guest star as their backup dancers and then it was some old guy's birthday so the owner came over and says to Tony, "We'd like to borrow your girlfriends!" and they got all the girls in the bar to go sing to Jerry~ lolol. Then people started kissing him on the mouth but I DEFINITELY passed on that and just went to sit back down lol.
Friday → I totally felt like shit, which was probably AWFUL timing because I had a shoot at 11. But it was so much fun, two local actors wanted lifestyle shots for their portfolio and I knew them from this past summer.
they are just bff, okay, she is married and they are acting~. SKILLS.
YEAH, NOT A BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE. (It was kind of torture, actually. Occupational hazard of being a photographer I suppose, looking at gorgeous people all day. My life is so hard~)
I then went straight to shoot a pediatric clinic but I won't post a lot of pictures of that because buildings are boaring to you all probably. But it blows my mind how I even have fun taking photos of boring stuff. NO BUT OKAY I'LL SHOW YOU ONE BUT ONLY BECAUSE IT WAS *SUCH* A CUTE, WARM, COLORFUL CLINIC; HOW CUTE IS THE FRONT DESK:
If I were a child here, I would so not be afraid of the doctor.
Then there was drama, Jason went NUTS because FedEx had an incompetent delivery driver so we had to drive an hour out of our way to pick up his stunt harness~ for a commercial because the idiots didn't fucking ring the doorbell. I fell asleep in the car because at that point it was rush hour, and raining, and a general pain in the ass. We went and saw Hangover 2 afterward, people in the theater were IDIOTS and wouldn't let me in without him so I had to watch a bunch of people walk in and get seats while I waited for him to get out of the bathroom. And then all the seats were full and I couldn't even deal, I was so pissed off at just fucking everything so I just stood in the aisle until Jason got there because I didn't want to talk to more idiots or ask them to move. We ended up with good seats, actually, lol. The movie was definitely not as funny as the first one. Like, at all.
Weekend → I was sick :( :( :( Cold, cough, and fever, I spent all of the weekend watching The Office or playing Plants vs Zombies - seriously. 14 hours straight of that gd addicting game. And then I had a fever that night so my fever dreams were AWFUL, I was playing it in my sleep and it was all I could see no matter how hard I tried. I had a dream though, on Sunday morning when I was healthier - I was outside and Lisa Edelstein was sitting on a red moped and there were daisies and that song by Jessie J, Price Tag, we were singing it (or mouthing along with it, really)~ everybody look to the left, everybody look to the right, it's not about the money~. It was so effing adorable but then when I woke up I took it as a surefire, omniscient sign that she didn't leave because of the money. My subconscious is a goddamn genius. I also remember thinking in the dream that she was smart enough and cool enough to mirror me instead of looking to her actual left (my right). Like, how considerate and cute of dream!her.
& BOOM - CAUGHT THE FUCK UP.
kind of. there is a LOT OF SHIT GOING ON in this pretty little head.
I'm skimming the surface because that's all I have time for :(
