Riley is antagonizing Greta.... she has this terrible habit of running into the pantry whenever the door is opened, and so either my father or I close her in there. I heard some squeaking just now, and noticed Riley swatting beneath the door, which means she's still in there.... That's what she gets for running into the pantry.... Dad left her in there overnight once accidentally, and you'd think that would be lesson enough for her not to go running back.... obviously not....
I'm not really hating life right now, just today.... Work was a bitch, I got nothing done and now I feel as though I've wasted a day in my precious short life on a stupid fucking computer program that is NOT efficient and is NOT helpful to my work in any way, shape or form but I am still required to waste my time, energy, and sanity on such worthless programming... Today, I cried for the first time over something work related.... Not only was I overwhelmed with trying to do what I needed to do within the eDapts program, but I was bombarded with moronic customers who call me to see if it's ok with the Fire Department if he wanted to PAINT HIS CEILING... give me a fucking break... we don't fucking care....
Otherwise, life has been good.... Zack and I are better than ever... we hit a rough spot... a REALLY rough spot (and I mean REALLY rough) but we overcame and things are amazing now... I think we've had 5 real fights as long as I've known him... that's not bad for knowing him almost 2 years... So yeah, the relationship front is alright... I'm just trying to think ahead though, and even though I don't want to be married at 22, I do want to marry sometime and due to events that occurred in Zack's past, he has no desire to marry... So if we end up staying together for too long and we don't get married, I'll probably move on and start "husband hunting"... ha...
Speaking of 22... I feel so old... I don't even get carded at bars anymore... Is it the piercings? Or my exquisite beauty that screams "I'm over 21!!!!!".... Well at school the other day, I was conversing with one girl and we were discussing coctail waitressing as a lucrative occupation and she said "wait... how old are you?" implying that she thought I was underage.... Then another girl, later in the day, asked me if I had just graduated high school..... I was elated... Honestly... I chuckled quietly and shook my head and smiled at her... I told her how flattered I was, and that I've surpassed the times of when I could look forward to a particular birthday.... It's all downhill from here... I just need to make the most of everything.... I absolutely love school... Fall Quarter started this week and I'm taking amazing courses and I just can't wait to delve into my homework.... It's just a drag that my town has a pitiful selection of artistic supplies... :(
I'm going to miss Powder on Saturday... I know it's shocking... but Bullets & Octane are also playing in Silverlake, and since I haven't seen them nearly as often as Powder, I'll support them... Plus the cover charge is cheaper and hopefully the bar won't charge $10 for a jack & coke.... (Hollywood sucks like that)...
I'm going to go eat dinner, I may come back and lament some more on my shitty day or whatever update I may conjur up that I have currently forgotten....
I really hope my Aunt & Uncle in Egypt are alright.. According to Yahoo News, some resorts have been bombed, yet it doesn't specify which ones... My uncle is a GM at a major resort on the Red Sea... time to make some long distance phone calls.....
