My day... inspired by monica!
This morning I was having a dream about jana getting a new vespa, and me taking it for a test ride and getting a speeding ticket on the freeway because its illegal to drive vespas on the freeway? and then my aunt wakes me up at exactly 7:30. I get up and microwave some coffee from a couple days ago, because we ran out of coffee to make it fresh. Then I got a bagel out of the cupboard, sliced it, and put it in the toaster, while wishing I had a cool bagel slicer like on the oc. Then I pour her some cereal, and the last of the milk, get her a napkin and a spoon, put her pills in a cup and then put it on a tray and bring it up to her.
I then lay on the couch and attempt to sleep a bit more, but she keeps calling me to help her with her chair/shoe/elbow/whatever. Then she goes and gets in the shower, and I make her bed. I help her out of the shower, and get dressed. I took her blood pressure. It was 162/80.
Then I went and tried to sleep for about an hour, but couldnt because she kept using the intercom to tell me to come look at pictures she wanted to show me. Then I gave up and went and showered, got dressed and got ready to go grocery shopping. Before I could leave, she had me help her print some pictures, made offensive comments about me and tristan hooking up(she REALLY likes to do this) and then i had to make lunch. i made grilled cheeses for the three of us. i made her some tomato soup also. i opted for just a sandwich because i like to add milk to my soup, and we were out. So then i served their sandwiches, cut in half, and mine cut in quarters. Tristan called while i was making lunch. He told me that he went to encino and i was jealous.
So I ate and then I went grocery shopping. My uncle made a stupid list of what to get. I hate it when he makes the lists because i have to get weird meats that he likes and stuff that smells bad. Then he told me not to spend more than 150 this week. I spent like 240 last week because i got deodorants, soaps, etc for tristan and i last week.
so i get in the car, which is a million degrees because black exterior+black interior+sun=worst combo everrrr. theres a mix cd in and danny's song is on. FAVORITE SONG EVER. for real. its pretty sweet mix cd too. it has metric, pink floyd, kenny rogers, kenny loggins, a7x's pantera cover, jason mraz, basically a crapload of awesome songs.
Anyway, I get to the store and get a pretty good spot, which is pretty uncommon for winco and its packed-ness. its even next to a shopping cart returning things(which i always try to park by, even if its in the back) i'm just lazy and hate walking more than 3 spots to return my cart. so i get inside and shop for a bit. it was surprisingly not too busy today. tristan calls me while i'm on the soup isle and asks if i can put money in his bank account in the next day or so and i agree and then i tell him i have to go because i dont have a lot of minutes left. so then i continue to shop, sad that i cant buy all the random crap i normally do. but the one thing i cant live without is chocolate soymilk. i'm addicted.
i go to the checkout, and for the first time in EVER they actually remember me and dont go through the process of calling the customer service desk to make sure i'm allowed to write a check for my uncle. so i bag my groceries and leave. oh, and i did manage to get some sweet halloween hanging bat decorations and some thanksgiving people window clings for our apartment. and construction paper and rubber cement to make calendars for krys and i.
which reminds me, krys and i have been using doodle in yahoo messenger to draw awesome pictures and decided to make a calendar. its coming along quite nice. i love it.
so i get in my car and drive home, continuing to listen to my sweet mix cd. i get home and unload the groceries and hide the things i bought for myself(and some of the stuff i've bought in the past like crystal light) in my bedroom. i'm starting to take all the trash out when my aunt and uncle get home from her massage appointment. i finish the trash, and attempt to clean my room real quick because they're interviewing a girl at 4 and they want to show her the room.
so before last weekend my closet had shelves, no hanging racks or anything, and the bottom 2 shelves had a bunch of my uncles crap because it was his office before he remodeled the downstairs into an office. so last friday night i get home to discover he took out the shelves and threw all my stuff to the bottom of the closet. i'm like whatever, its like 3:30 fuck it i'm going to bed. i get up the next day to go to my parents to go to dinner and play and stuff, and when i got home that night, my uncle took all my clothes etc from the bottom of the closet, and threw them all over the floor at the foot of my bed, so the closet was completely empty. i thought, what the fuck! but my uncle does weird shit where he rearranges stuff that absolutely doesnt need to be rearranged all the time, so i was like, whatever i'm getting out of here soon, fuck it.
so anyway, i have to frantically throw all this shit back in the closet because i have like 10 minutes until this girl is coming. and then i make my bed, which was super annoying because the down comforter got all fucked up inside the cover and i had to totally take it out and put it back in the right way, because otherwise it was just a big ball on my bed. then i have some big bags of stuff that are just sitting there because i'm moving, and dont know what a box is.
so then the girl shows up and my uncle takes her to the dining room table and they talk and such. and i drink a starbucks out of my aunts fridge and watch my aunt fuck around on her computer, until my uncle brings the girl up and we meet her. Her name is Rachel. she's 20. she's going to clark to be a dental hygienist and just moved here from seattle. she's nice and seems cool. she asked if she could spend the day with me on friday. she must be really excited about her AWESOME future job.
anyway, my uncle practically hires her on the spot... the first girl he interviews. because he waited until the last minute to even start looking. he even fucking called my mom last weekend to try to have her convince me not to go. and i sat there and listened to my mom shoot him down. my mom rules. and then he never even mentions to me that he talked to my mom. shady mcgee!!
so rachel leaves and i start making dinner. I made tacos. my aunt is obsessed with tacos. then again, my aunt is obsessed with anything you can eat. so i eat a burrito, and think about how we lived on burritos and rice in seattle and then do the dishes.
my aunt asks me to play family feud with her. i'm like ok, if i can work on my calendars, while you type in answers. so she agrees. so then shes on craigslist for like over an hour, and i realize, oh man time to watch project runway. so right as she finally decides to start up family feud, i leave to go watch project runway, and shes like, "i thought we were going to play feud!" and i'm like, "we were until you spent an hour on craigslist and now i want to watch tv" and piss her off even more because like 10 minutes before that she said, "Cara help me with my shoe! i have to go use the bathroom" and i said, "just a second i have to finish gluing this down or the rubber cement will dry" and she gets all pissed off like, "I HAVE TO PEEEEEEE" and i'm like, "i'm sorry that I took an extra 10 seconds and you're impatient!" and she says, "well i'm ALWAYS waiting on you" and i'm like, "and i'm always interrupted with what i'm doing and have to drop everything to help you" and then she took her fingers and physically shut my mouth. and although i was furious, i started laughing because i drooled on her leg.
so then i helped her up and went and watched project runway. it made me cry when kayne got voted off, even though he probably should have been.. i just really liked him. then i started to watch dancing with the stars, but my uncle came up and started telling me this story about his friend that got a DUI blah blah blah jail blah blah blah blah. and i left and went in on the computer.
then my aunt came in the office and said, "i like your shirt" and i was like, "uh, thanks" because its an old t-shirt with holes in it. then she says, "Yeah, at least your boobs arent hanging out like they usually are... i'm always embarrassed to be seen with you" like um, thanks! way to follow a compliment with a big fat buuuurn. i should have gotten her back with the fact that she never wears a bra, but i just bit my tongue. my aunt can be such a bitch.
oh and also, yesterday for the first time since i moved in, she actually wiped after she went pee. and today, she decided its "too hard" and quit again. seriously. thats fucking disgusting. i dont care who you are.
so ANYWAY, i went and helped her get ready for bed, and then my uncle made me try to show him how to take her blood pressure. and then he played with the stethoscope on himself.. in fact an hour later and he still is.
so here i sit, waiting for my day to come to get the fuck out of here. i can't wait to move. but i also am so sad. not just to say goodbye to everyone here, but because the time i have left here, is spent HERE, in this dumb house.
I thinking about telling them i'm leaving earlier than i am, and just stick around in town for a couple days. that would be sweesweet.
heres a little ditty expressing how i feel:
And I don't wanna run for the president,
I just want an honest way to pay my rent,
And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down,
Tired of my old man 'cause he's never around,
And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates,
And I don't look important so they're tellin' me to wait,
Police records said they wouldn't exist,
I wanna know the meaning of a Christmas list,
Said all I wanna do is kick the welfare,
All I wanna do is get my share,(tiki tiki tiki)
All I wanna do is make somethin' from nothin',
It's GC baby and we're workin' with somethin',(said)
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everything's gonna be alright,
Get down stay up all night now,
Let's do this one more time,
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright, alright
Goodnight Moon.
