I'm home! Yay. But I'm bored as hell.
Starr and I went to Northampton on Sunday...it was wicked fun. We had sushi. She ate 4 pieces this time! Woohoo! lol. I bought 3 new pins. One says,"It's not my fault your kids are assholes." The other says,"Product of a sick society." And the last one says,"None of this shit was ever mentioned in school." Hehe I love them, they fit me very well, lol.
I also bought 2 books by Francesca Lia Block, Primavera and Wasteland. I absolutely adore her writing...though I'm not normally into fantasy. But I've loved almost every book of hers that I've read.
So yeah, I think that's all I bought. Oh yeah...heh, and an iced coffee. It was awful.
Here's what happened:
*Guy hands me my coffee, rips the paper off of the straw, and touches the tip of the straw with his finger*
Me: (apparently turning bright red, off to the side adding sugar to my coffee)
Starr: What's wrong, dude? You look real embarassed.
Me: (whispering) Dude, can you do me a huge favor? Can you ask him for another straw...tell him this one is broken.
Starr: (asking the guy) Could we get another straw, this one's broken...
Me: (whispering) Tell him not to open it, tell him not to open it, tell him not to open it....
And Starr handed me the unopened straw.
It was VERY embarassing. It was TOTALLY disgusting! I could believe he TOUCHED my STRAW! And the fact that it bothered me so much, to the point that I got all red and hot and felt embarassed...Makes me realize I'm more of a germaphobe than I thought. It worries me in a way. But, the average person, would've taken it as a kind gesture of him. And meanwhile, there I was APPALLED, disgusted. There was NO WAY I was gonna use that straw. :shudders: It still grosses me out. But I can't believe it bothered me that much that physically, my body reacted. He touched Starr's straw too...and she still used it. I couldn't have forced myself if I tried...even if he didn't touch the tip where I'd put my mouth.
On another note...I'm getting my wisdom teeth extracted on Wednesday morning. So, no work Wednesday. I go back to work on Monday though. If I'm feeling up to it. I should be alright though. I'll be quitting smokin' cigarettes on Wednesday as well. Sooo, hopefully my body will be able to heal itself a little faster. I'll try to get Starr over this weekend to do a circle with me. That always makes me feel better, no matter what.
Shit! I just though about something. My sister and I are supposed to sleep over Tommy's house this weekend. I can't! I mean, I COULD but I'd feel like SHIT. And probably still be a little swollen in the face. Fuckers! Damn these wisdom teeth!
But I'm gonna go and read some of Primavera. It's just starting to get really good. :-) These boys think she's a fairy.
I want to be a fairy.
