life has been so chaotic and full of stuff to do. some fun stuff, some stuff i've had to do. i've been feeling so overwhelmed, but it's getting better. it's a good thing i'm ridiculously organized (i have 4 different notebooks for different things i use on a regular basis to keep my thoughts organized) or i might not be able to handle it ( Read more... )

i've been feeling pretty motivated lately. i've actually been cooking real dinners regularly, which is something i NEVER do because i've always felt like i have no idea what i'm doing. but i got a nice reflux-friendly cookbook which has a ton of really good recipes in it with easy to follow directions. i've made i think 5 different things from it ( Read more... )

i'm finally getting to go away this weekend, this trip has been planned for so long it felt like it would never come! going to hartford, connecticut to see uncle fred (robert englund) and all of this. getting pretty damn excited about it ( Read more... )

the past few days at work have been incredibly lame. like from super busy to sitting around doing nothing for several hours at a time. yesterday i had enough downtime to completely rearrange and clean the color room, and today i was just going crazy because i can't stand to sit still for that long. there's only so many magazines you can read, and ( Read more... )

fuck you smashing pumpkins for charging $58.50 for tickets! it's not even the original lineup, if it was i might consider it. smashing pumpkins is one of those bands i've loved forever, ever since i've been into music, but i've never seen them live. i sure as hell am not paying that much to see them in a seated venue. goddamn it, i got excited for ( Read more... )

i hate people who come into a place of business and think that if they bitch enough, they will get whatever it is that they want. sorry, we don't play that game. my boss doesn't agree with giving in to that type of behavior, and neither do i. that's what i respect the most out of him, whenever we get some bitchy customer who wants to play the "i ( Read more... )

today was ridiculously busy at work. not really surprising, since it's saturday, and one of the first nice days of spring. i was completely booked today, and one of my annoying clients (not saying my clients are normally annoying but this one can be) wouldn't take "she's booked" for an answer. she asked rachel in every way possible if i could fit ( Read more... )

it was a productive monday. i got my hair color done (it's rainbow fantastic-ness), and my legs waxed! and of course as a result of that, made pretty much no money. not that there were many customers today anyway. but i don't even care my total was only $96 today (a normal day is anywhere between $200-400 and no i don't get to keep all of that ( Read more... )

today sucked so bad. everyone called out and i was stuck by myself for the entire night basically. victor happened to stop in because he wanted his neck trimmed and eyebrows waxed, and he ended up staying and doing like 5 haircuts to help out, because obviously i can't do EVERYTHING. literally the only stylists that worked today who normally work ( Read more... )

richie started his new job, overnight at target this past week. i think we both hate it at this point. he works 10:30pm-7am, which means i have to wake up at 6:45am and pick him up, then come home and go back to sleep. it's not really that it's not allowing me enough sleep, because he made sure to only work days that i don't have to work early, but ( Read more... )
