Dave and I
What Doesn't Kill us is Making us Stronger...
Got to work today, and it looked very gloomy. Then it rained. Yes, folks, it rained. I wore Byl's hat for a while, and he wore my garland. Ha ha ha.
On my 15 minute break, I went to the Terot Tree and visited Matt. He's so sweet. He kept me warm with his cloak. (Aww...) He's a good friend.
The customers were even more of a pain in the ass today. Blah. They were whining for more balloons, and one guy actually had the fucking balls to ask me to take down all the balloons I had up, and replace them with bigger ones. It was pouring rain, it was cold, and here is this motherfucking asshole asking me to go blow up a whole new set of balloons just for him. Well, fuck you, asshole. (I didn't really say that, but I sure as hell thought it.) I told him I wouldn't. He threw his darts anyway, and then paid a dollar for another 2 darts (2 darts for $1 and 5 darts for $2), and then asked if he could get a third, since he was playing again. Seeing as I'm not that much of an unreasonable bitch, I said ok.
Later on, some guy came up and asked if I would put more balloons up, and after a day in the rain and cold, I said, "If you want to find me more hooks, blow up the balloons, and put them on the hooks, you can, otherwise deal with it." He played my game anyway.
During my 45 minute break, I kidnapped Matt from the Terot Tree and we went walking about. We had a bit of fun. Sat for a while. We were both drenched.
This whole weekend has been so strange without Dave around. I keep thinking I see him out of the corner of my eye, when someone is wearing a black and white costume. And Mute was working Fowl Lyne, and his costume is a bit like Dave's, and it's black and white, and I whenever I saw Mute out of the corner of my eye, I thought I saw Dave, but then I saw that it was Mute.
Greg gave me the picture (which I still have to pay him for - next weekend). You can view it by clicking the "Dave and I" link above.
This wasn't a particularly good day for me. I was all muddy, and I had to wash my skirt again. But I called Dave when I got home tonight, and he said he has a fracture, and that he'll be going to the doctor's on Tuesday to find out if he needs a cast, and if he can work, and if so, what he can do. sable
Don't You Want Somebody to Love?

Dave wasn't at work today, and he won't be tomorrow, either. From what I understand, he might not be coming back for the rest of the season. I hope that's not the case, cause things just aren't the same without him. *sigh* He hurt his arm (some say he broke it, others say he had a fracture - so I am just going to say he hurt his shoulder until I find out what happened from him) in a golf cart accident. OUCH.
I'm going to call him Monday. To see how he's doing and whatnot.
Oh, Greg developed the pictures. The one of me and Dave looks great. I actually like how I look in a picture for once. It's also in black and white, which I think gives a picture more of an attitude, a mood. He [Greg] won't let me have it until tomorrow night after work, cause he wants to show other people it. Which is all good. So I'll scan and post it either tomorrow night or on Monday.
Pointless factoid: The picture of me and Dave was Greg's friend, Phil's favourite picture. Awww. *grins*
I dealt with some assholes today at work. They were bitching about the size of the balloons, the arrangement of the balloons, and the amount of balloons. The ungrateful ingrates need to shut the hell up before they find a dart up their ass. I could also do without their commentary on the prizes.
Sable's Rules to Attending a Faire
* Don't bitch about the layout of the game.
* Look around you for prizes before you ask to see them - otherwise you're just being a pain in the ass to the worker.
* Don't bitch about the quality of the prize. If you're expecting a million bucks, go play the lottery and hold your breath.
* If the game involves sharp, pointy, objects, WAIT until the worker has moved and is clear out of the range of being hit.
* Don't talk to the worker when he/she is dealing with someone else. (You'd think this is common knowledge, but some people are pretty stupid.)
* Don't walk into someone who is trying to play the game way, just to give the worker money.
That's all I can think of for now. Take what I said into consideration if you're going to any fairs/carnivals/festivals/theme parks/etc. You wouldn't believe how rude some of my customers are, and how much frustration they cause me and I'm sure other workers. sable
Oh, Make Me Over...
7/28/00
Today I got up around the time I wanted to. I did my morning duties, watched a little TV. Went on the internet for a while, and listened to some music.
I watched more TV in the later afternoon, had a little nap. Around 4:30 in the afternoon, my friend Sue rung me up and told me she was home from work, so I could pick her up and go to Milwaukee.
It was about 5 pm when I picked her up, and we were on our way to Milwaukee.
First stop was Southridge Mall. We stopped at a few stores. I got a Blondie shirt that is form fitting, and has sparkley rhinestones on Blondie at Gadzooks. I got a fake snake print skirt at Deb's. And some 3 in 1 eyeshadow at Hot Topic.
I really am not a big Hot Topic shopper, but I will go there. I prefer Medusa's Circle, which is in Chicago (in the Wrigleyville area). Medusa's has my selection of Iggy shirts that I so much enjoy, that Hot Topic is too stupid to sell.
After that, we went to Atomic Records to discover they closed at 8 pm. It was 8:22. So we went for a little ride around Milwaukee, and then decided to get onto the interstate to go home.
When we got back in Kenosha, we stopped at Target, and I got pink eyeshadow and red lipstick. Then I dropped Sue off at home, and came home.
I feel a little guilty splurging like I have. Because my paycheck wasn't as big as it should have been, because of the 2 days I missed. And I'm trying to save up for this trip to Europe, and that's going to be $2200. *sigh* It almost seems like I can't win. When I finally have enough money to go shopping without having to ask my mom for money, I can barely use it because I have to save it. Really, you can't win either way, can you? But I know this trip to Europe is definately going to be worth it in the end. sable
P.S. - Work tomorrow. I'm actually a bit excited. I'll get to see Dave, and hopefully Greg will have the film developed, and he'll have that picture for me...
I'm Miss World, Watch me Break and Watch me Burn
7/27/00
Well, today I got up really late. It was about 2:30 in the afternoon when I got my lazy ass outta bed. I really wanted to kick myself in the ass, then, cause we all know how much I hate sleeping in.
I immediately brushed my teeth, took a shower, dryed my hair, and got dressed, because I had to take my dog, Amir, to Petco for her appointment to get groomed. Then, after that, I went to the bank, cashed something for my mom, and cashed my paycheck (finally).
After that, I went back home, and my mom dropped me off at school for the 5 pm meeting I had with Mr. Slater. Gave him all the forms and the $95. Felt really stupid after he bitched me out for not having another job, so now he's making me get another one by August 5th. I'll just do little odds 'n' ends working for mom. So there.
After the meeting, mom picked me up, and we met my grandma and grandpa at Brewmasters (a local restaurant), and had dinner.
When I got home, I called Sue, and we're going to Milwaukee tomorrow. Yay! sable
P.S. - My first issue of Mojo magazine came in the mail. Woo-hoo! I was a little dissapointed a Stooges and/or Iggy Pop song didn't make their top 100 best songs list. *sigh* Oh well.
Reasons to be Beautiful
7/26/00
I woke up relatively early today. Part of the reason was because I have to finish filling forms out for my International Business class trip. But I haven't done that, yet. I plan on doing it tomorrow, for sure, though. Because I have a meeting at 5 pm with my teacher, Mr. Slater.
Anyway, I sat around and waited for Dave to call, so he could give me the directions I needed to get to my destination in Milwaukee. It was like, 1 in the afternoon, and I didn't think he was gonna call. So, I listened to some music, and at 2 I watched Jenny Jones. I was napping just a little, cause I was a bit tired. I didn't fall asleep, or anything, though. It was a light sleep.
I so thought he wasn't going to call. I was completely thinking that he forgot or something. But he didn't, he called around 2:30. Got the directions.
I took a quick shower, and I was on my way. This was the first time I had ever driven to Milwaukee by myself. I had gone to Milwaukee before, just with my friend Sue, and Sue is great with directions, so I always feel extremely safe going places with Sue.
I made it to Milwaukee fine, and I met Dave at George Webb's - which I guess is a hang out for him - and we talked for a while. We just dranks sodas. Mute and a girl, I think her name was Angie (something with an "A") came, and they sat with us for a while.
Then Dave and I left for the movie. We went in his car. The movie was really good. I kept wanting to ring my arm around his, but I was a little too shy to do that, now, anyway.
After the movie was over, we went back to George Webb's and we had another soda. We talked for a little while, and then it was time to part. I had a good time, though.
When I got home, I called Sue, cause my mom told me she had called while I was gone. So I called her, and then I picked her up so we could talk at my house for a while. She stayed over until 11:40 pm, and then I brought her back home. She couldn't sleep over, cause she has to work tomorrow. (I only work weekends, as you all know.)
So that was my day, and a good day it was. sable
Intoxicated With the Madness...
7/25/00
God, envy.nu is pissing me off! I'm trying to work on my Courtney Love site, Sparkle & Shine: A Courtney Love Site, and the server is being so fucking slow. I hate that. I am beginning to regret choosing that site as the server of my site. The only good thing about it is that the URL is short and it's advert free.
Anyhow... I stayed up all night. I need to stop doing shit like that. It's bad for me. I'm not tired, though.
I was going to cash my paycheck today, but I think I'm going to do that tomorrow before I meet Dave in Milwaukee for the movie. I really hope he calls. I'm going to feel so let down and sad if he doesn't, cause I've really been looking forward to this. I think he will call, though. I don't percieve Dave to be the type of guy not to call.
Other than that, nothing has happened today. sable
(What's the Story) Morning Glory?
7/24/00
So I'm really tired. I went right to sleep when I went to bed last night. My cat Spunky accompanied me. She likes to lay down in bed with me at night. She's such an adorable cat. She's sleeping in her clawpole/sanctuary right now. Awww...
So, yeah, I'm a bit tired. I got up at 10 am, but then slept in at till 11 am, and finally woke up at 1 pm, just in time to watch Maury Povich. One of the few talk shows I enjoy watching. (Along with Montel Williams, Oprah. Yeah, Oprah. I think she has a great soul, and does wonderful things for people, and she isn't trashy like Jerry Springer. I also enjoy watching Queen Latifah.)
I have "It's my Life" by Bon Jovi in my head. I really like that song. It's a very good song. VH1 plays their video for it all the time. I got the album ("Crush") a few weeks ago. I wonder if they're gonna be doing a US tour. I checked out their tour listings, and they're only playing in Europe and Japan. *sigh* Any info on a US Bon Jovi tour, e-mail me.
Yeah, so that's been my day. Nothing too exciting. But I'm really looking forward to this Wednesday! sable
I Can Only Give You Everything
7/23/00
Today was a pretty good day. Again, I really don't want to talk about work, cause nothing all too extraordinary happened. It was just the same thing, basically. (But still fun, despite the fact that my feet are aching.)
Nick picked me up this morning, we got to work early. I was giving Dave a back massage (a before work back massage), and my dear friend Matt, who works at the Terot Tree, stopped by, put his hands over my eyes while I was giving Dave a back massage, and said, "Guess who." And at first I thought it was Rob, who was standing next to me, cause it did kind of sound like him, but Matt said, "No." And then I was like, "Would someone tell me who has their hands over my eyes?" And then Matt responded with, "They can't, cause no one here knows who I am." (Though Senica - aka "Tica" - has met him, he wasn't there at that time.) So, I was like, "Matt?" And he was like, "Yep." And I turned around and gave him a hug, but then he had to go back and get changed into his costume.
During work, Ian and Josh (or as Ian says, "Joshua" - though Josh doesn't seem to like it) stopped by. They had the day off, and they brought some food by, and shared it with me, the loveable guys they are. Helped me with my booth for a while. Both total sweethearts. So funny, and loveable.
After work I gave Dave a back massage, then I gave Byl one. And Tyson was all like, "Where do you get all this energy? You were up there at Bloody Mary Darts hawking, and now you're giving everyone back massages." And I was like, "I don't know, it just comes to me." After that, I went back over to Dave, and I sat on his lap. *grins* I was quite happy. Then I talked with Greg for a while, and I picked up my wonderful paycheck. GLORY!!!
I am very excited for this Wednesday. I can't wait to go to the movies with Dave. Greg took a picture of us, and as soon as he gets the film developed, I'll scan it and post it. sable
I Need Somebody, Baby, Just Like You...
7/22/00
Work was ok. It wasn't hot, I was actually cold. My friend Matt sent me a flower, and later on I sent him one, too. I also made it to work safely, and on time. But that's not what I want to talk about...
So I gave Dave my number, and we're going to go see Scary Movie on Wednesday. I really like him a lot. I hope everything goes well and smoothly. I think he likes me, too, and that something could eventually evolve from this.
I've ran into a small dilema here, and it's one I've never been in. Considering, I've never really had a boyfriend, feeling like I've never been the "man's choice".
See, a friend of mine and Dave's likes me. He's seriously been flirting with me, and I'll be quite honest, I've flirted back, even though I'm not really interested. I guess I flirted back because I didn't want to make him feel bad. I didn't want to make him feel bad. But now this puts me in an ackward position, because I like Dave, but Dave is also a friend of this guy. They ride to work together. I gave Dave the usual after work back massage, and the guy was sitting right next to us, and I hope I didn't hurt him then. What I'm really concerned about is: a) I think this guy is a real nice person, and is a great friend; b) I don't want to ruin/destroy his friendship with Dave. But I also don't want to ignore my real feelings. So, yeah, I'm in a bit of a bind. If you have any suggestions/comments, please, please, please e-mail me!
Also at work... We have these kissing cards, and you can use them to get a kiss from any willing human/beast/creature, and a customer wanted to use the card on me, which I thought was quite flattering and shocking. So it was just a peck kiss on the lips. Then, a few minutes later, a real cute guy came along, and I started to advertise for my game, and he said he would come back another time, cause he came to the fair a lot, and he would play my game because I was a beautiful girl, and then we kissed - nothing long like a make-out session, but a peck on the lips that was a bit longer than the kiss with the first customer.
What a day... I'm wondering what tomorrow holds... I have Sting's "Desert Rose" in my head, I think it's a good song. I like Sting. sable
P.S. - My Stooges box set, "1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions" came in today, as well. I'm very happy!
Theo From Road Rules
I Just Don't Know
7/21/00
I had a very interesting debate with clio and God(loves clio) last night on the holemusic.com chatroom. We were basically debating about Manson, and the people whom he ripped off (Iggy Pop - whom the debate mostly involved next to Manson, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, etc.). It wasn't one of those "You suck, and so does your musical taste!" kind of things. It was a mature, respectful, yet very interesting, debate. I enjoyed it very much, and it's been a long time since I last had a mature debate over music.
I got up at 1 in the afternoon today. Not bad, considering I went to bed at 5 am. (This debate on music took place around 3:30/4 am.) I took a sleeping pill, but it really didn't help that much [that I know of, anyway]. I don't think my mom knows I have them, though I have them laying out in the open for her to see. Maybe she does, and she's not saying anything about it.
I gotta work tomorrow. I'm kinda excited, though. Cause I'll see Dave, and then I can give him my number. Then, we can go see that movie.
Oh, and about the link (above). It's a picture of Theo, who's on the current Road Rules show. He's the only reason I watch that show. He's so cute, isn't he? *purr* sable
I Love All of You, Straight From the Heart
7/20/00
Oh my God! I just read one of my dearest friends', Kittie, pita, and she said so many nice things! I swear she is one of thee sweetest girls I ever met. We live far away, and that does suck, cause we'd be such close, cool, best, friends if we lived close to each other. But we're pretty damn close for the distance between us. (And she's gonna come to where I live, and marry my brother so we can be sister-in-laws! Ha ha ha. *wink*)
As with most people on the holemusic.com messeage board. I have met some totally kick ass people on that board! I swear, they are all so cool there. It is hands down, the best board I've ever been to in my virtual life!
So yeah, this little entry goes out to all the cool people at holemusic.com! *hugs* sable
Get Your Motor Runnin'
7/20/00
Alright! Mom said I could use the car on Saturday! YAY!! No more having to worry about not having a ride. *does lurid happy dance*
I stayed up all night again, but not cause I wanted to, because I couldn't fall asleep. I hate when that happens. But I ended up snoozin' on the couch watching TV for a while. Then some guy called, I think he was from Network Solutions. He was calling to see if I was using my domain (www.daitheflu.com - not in use, but I own the domain), and I said no. I basically told him that I was waiting for the 2 years to expire on it.
I'd use my domain, (I lurve the name - one of my favourite Deftones songs) but when I tried to switch it to a new server, Network Solutions never switched it for me. The fucking assholes. That really pisses me off, cause I paid a fuckload for that domain, and now I've wasted the money, and I can't even use it. Just one of the things that piss me off. Assholes. I've since sworn never to use their services again.
Yeah, so I ended up napping until, like 3 in the afternoon. But the Network Solutions guy called at 12, and he woke me up then, and now he's got me feeling bad about not being able to use my domain name. *whimpers*
Anyhow, check out Sable's Suggestions. sable
Gimme, Gimme Shock Treatment
7/19/00
Well, today I got up around 1 in the afternoon, the earliest I got up this whole week. I didn't actually leave my bed until 2:30 at the least.
I watched one of the two showings of Roseanne at 5. The one I watched was pretty interesting. Then I went on the holemusic.com message board for a while. Listened to some music.
My dad then came and picked me up at 7 pm, to go out to eat. We stopped at his house (which is a block down from the house Orson Welles was raised in) for a while, mainly to work on some papers that need to be filled out and signed for a trip to Europe I'll be taking this April with my International Business class.
After all that, we went to a local restaurant, Marina Gardens, to eat. I had a Hot Beef sandwich with a side of mashed patatoes and gravy. Dad and I talked for a while. He'll be going to Spain this weekend, and he'll be there for 20 days. My older brother Bobby is studying in Spain for the summer.
That was my boring day. I have to work some fundraising festival for my International Business class this Friday. Woo-hoo. At least it'll be going towards the $2200 I need for the trip. sable
The Passenger
7/18/00
Well, I stayed up all night, but fell asleep and woke up at 3:00 in the afternoon. I hate all this sleeping in. I think my sleeping schedule is getting screwed up. I need to get it back on track.
After I brushed my teeth, I watched Roseanne (my favourite TV show). I had already seen both epidodes. That's ok, though. I didn't mind watching them again. Though on the second show, the problem with Darlene and David could've been bigger. Only my opinion.
Chuck called. He said he can't give me rides to work in the morning on Sundays anymore. This is beginning to suck shit. I guess he was waiting outside for 10 to 15 minutes for me to come out. Frankly, I wouldn't have waited that long for myself. I would have given myself 5 minutes (or less), unless I came down and said that I would be right out. But oh well. Dan isn't going to be here this Saturday, he's going to a concert. So it looks like I'm fucked for this whole weekend. I asked mom if I could use the car, and now I'm really hoping she says yes.
It's such a pain in the ass having to go to a job that is so far away from you. Since I don't have my own car (though I do have my license), I have to rely on other people for rides. And city transportation doesn't go out that far, so that's out of the question. A taxi? No. I might as well forget about a paycheck, because at least half of my paycheck would go to the taxi. This sucks eggs.
Anyhow...
As you see, I made a new layout. This one is gonna last a lot longer, cause I really like it a lot. I looked all over for the perfect picture of Gillian Anderson.
I've also decided that on Thursday, I'm dying my hair red. Ha ha ha. I'm gonna probably become one of those people that dyes my hair a different color every other week. sable
1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions
Radio Burnin' up Above, Beautiful Baby Feed my Love
7/17/00
YAY! It's mine!! I just ordered The Stooges 1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions! (Mucho thanks to Kate for e-mailing me the info!!! *hugs*)
Now I will be the envy of my town, ha ha ha. Considering, it seems I am the only fan of The Stooges out of the 90,000+ people who live in my town. But a proud Stooges fan I am. sable
She's so Deep, Like Dirty Water
7/17/00
Well, I woke up late again today. It was like, 2:45 in the afternoon when I woke up. I really hate the fact that I slept in so late. Ugh. I did my regular, what would be "morning duties", and I didn't get out of the bathroom until 5 pm. That sucked.
Last night part of the ceiling in my mom's room fell apart. That must have sucked for her. I heard all the ruckus, but I didn't know what it was. Part of her bed, and the floor on the left side of her bed, was all covered in broken pieces of plaster. She came in while I was in the bathroom and cleaned it all up.
I also discovered that my snail (we have an Aquababies aquarium), Wayne (whom I now know is actually female, but didn't know when I named it after Wayne Kramer), had two baby snails. I named them Ron and Scott, after the Asheton brothers who were in The Stooges. I have 3 fish. Joey (after Joey Ramone), Dee Dee (after Dee Dee Ramone), and Iggy (after Iggy Pop, of course). Now Wayne has to have 2 more snails, or a fish has to have 2 fish, or there has to be 1 snail born and 1 fish born, so I can name one James (after James Williamson of The Stooges), and the other Dave (after Dave Alexander of The Stooges - before James Williamson). Then I'd have my own aqua-Stooges. :)
Last night, I helped my friend Kittie design her Pita. I think it looks very nice. I hope she likes it. :)
I've been thinking about dying my hair again. I know I already bleached it, but I want to get the red hair that Gillian Anderson has. (Lurve Gillian!) So I don't know. I'm going to have to think about that. sable
High on Rebellion
7/16/00
Well, I missed work today. (Feeling like shit about this.) I ended up sleeping in till 2 in the afternoon. I hope Chuck ain't mad at me. I also hope Megan (my boss) ain't mad at me. This is the second time in a row that I missed work due to sleeping in. I did call Megan, though, and told her that I wasn't going to be coming in, and that I slept in.
Other than missing work, I didn't do much today. I really never do much on days that I sleep in. sable
It's Been a Hard Day's Night (and I've Been Working Like a Dog)
7/15/00
Work wasn't so bad. Thank God. It wasn't that hot at all, and there was a nice breeze. (Though Dan tells me it's supposed to get hot tomorrow.)
My day went pretty well. I didn't work Star Throw (YAY!). I got my usual game back, Bloody Mary Darts (WHEE!). So now everything is back to the usual run of things. Even though Byl is breaking me (taking my game over for a selected amount of time so I can have a break), which isn't the usual run of things. I'm used to having SuperDave or Rob break me. Oh well. At least I'm getting a break.
The one thing that irks me - and to all of you who go to fairs who are reading this, pay close attention - is how people bitch about the prizes. So, yeah, a lizard/iguana isn't exactly a prize of gold. But you don't have to throw shit fits over the quality of the prize. You gotta pay to play, so quit whinging or quit going. I just want to smack people who sit there and whinge about the prize.
Anyhow, onto a more cheery topic...
I got my friend Matt at the Tarot Tree a rose, and he got me one back. :) I picked on J.T. a little, and I remember him saying, "Fuck you and your darts!" Which is funny. I know he didn't mean it in a nasty way, it's just a on-going joke with me and J.T. to be mean to each other - but we're not brutally mean, we're funny mean (I guess you could say). After work I gave Dave (aka "SuperDave") a back massage, which is something I do for him after work. I don't mind doing it, he's a real sweet guy. Just completely cool. We might go see a movie the week after this coming week. :)
After work, me, Dan, Dave, Mute, Chuck (from Milwaukee), Tyson, and Tubs went to McDonald's. We all sat around and talked, laughed, and started the relaxation process after a long day of work. I was the only girl there. :) I always feel special being the only girl, cause I'm like, "the only one".
Oh yeah, and during my 45 minute break, I got a Terot reading. It was quite interesting.
Lookin' forward to tomorrow. Last day of work until next weekend. sable
I'm a Walking Study in Demonology
7/14/00
No, I was not done bitching yet. Ha ha ha. I gotta get a little more outta my system.
I was chit-chatting (what a funny phrase) with a friend on the Hole message board, and she was telling me about this Fun House box set. I've heard of this glamourous thing I want, but I can't seem to find it anywhere on the internet. So if you have any info on this mysterious thing, please e-mail me. It would be greatly appreciated.
Ok, so now I have a list of all the things I want, but I gotta also save up for an upcoming trip I'll [hopefully] be taking with my International Business class next year. It's costing $2200, and right now I only have 50 bucks saved up. That's baaaad.
I have a feeling that my next paycheck is gonna be pathetically small. I missed last Saturday. And since we had too many people on Sunday, I only worked a half day. I pretty much just wandered around the Fair grounds half that day. I wonder if I'm going to get paid a full 50, or just get 25? SupaDave tells me that I'll probably only get paid for half the day, but I'm hoping that I get paid for a full day. I probably won't.
I gotta get my ass in gear. My mom's going up north this weekend, so I'm going to be here all by myself, so I need to get my little bootie to the grocery store to buy food and snacky stuff to survive.
I wonder if Dan is gonna want to stop at Nina's tomorrow night after work... I don't think I'm gonna have a lot of money... sable
P.S. - One last thing... I'm gonna keep up with The TransLove Trip. I'm not going to let the site die. I think I'd have a lot of people ready to hunt my ass down and beat me up if I stop it. Pointless factoid for you.

I Am the Girl You Know, so Sick I Cannot Try...
7/14/00
I don't want to work tomorrow. *whinge* I know it's gonna be all hot and muggy, and I'm going to have to wear that costume that makes me all sweaty and hot. Errrrr. I'm going to have to stand all day, and occasionally steal a sit when I can. BLAH. Too fucking bad I need the money. *sigh*
It's not that I hate my job or anything. It just gets very difficult. This isn't your regular 9-5 job, if you know what I mean. And the people I work with make up for it. Weekends are the only times I get to see some of the coolest people I ever met.
It stormed last night, which completely sucked ass. Well, it didn't completely suck ass. You just wonder why there isn't any electrical storms when you need them (ha ha ha - this weekend? - kidding). The storm ended up setting off a car's alarm. It's 3:30 in the morning, and some car's alarm is going off. It was going off for about 15 to 20 minutes. Maybe a little longer. Good thing I was awake. Otherwise, I would've found the owner of the car and given him the tongue lashing of a lifetime. Anyhow...
I'm totally digging my Hole desktop theme. It's really fucking cool. The sounds are good, and the wallpaper is pretty. Take a lookie at the screenshot I took (above link). You envy me. :) I really like Hole a lot. They have a cool site, too, so check it out. sable
Wonderful Iggy Pop Pictures
Death Trip

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. That's all I have to say.
I've been thinking today (which is very hard, considering my state of tired-ness). I don't know what I want to do with The TransLove Trip. I don't even know if I want to do it anymore. It's not fun. And I don't have any ideas to do with it to make it fun. I hate this. I really fucking do.
I've thought about making a just Iggy site, but I don't know! I just don't know. I don't know what I wanna do. But I know this sucks. This feeling sucks eggs.
I also don't wanna go to work on Saturday. But I have to. Shit. sable
And I Get What I Want, and I Never Want it Again

Yay! Today I cashed my very first paycheck! WHEE!! So what did I do with my money? (You ask.)
Well, I took 50 of it and put it away to save for the trip I'll hopefully be taking this coming April to Europe with my International Business class. The rest I decided to spend on myself. Along with the 15 bucks I took out of my checking account, and the 20 bucks my mom gave me for a hair cut.
After I cashed my check, and returned the video, This is Spinal Tap, I headed up to Best Buy to get a few CDs.
I ended up getting...
* Iggy Pop "Party"
* Madonna "The Immaculate Collection"
After that, I got my hair cut. I've also recently had it bleached, and now I got it cut. It's style is this Iggy Pop-meets-Courtney Love-meets-Debbie Harry look. It's pretty cool. Like it a lot.
Then I swung by Sally Beauty Supplies, but didn't find anything I wanted. After that, I went to Southport Books and bought Naked Lunch by: William S. Burroughs.
After all my shopping I went for a relaxing walk. So that was my day. sable
Lust For Life

I hate sleeping in. It's a waste of my day. I woke up at 3:30 in the afternoon today. I hate waking up that late. I wasted my whole fucking day on sleeping. What a waste. I could have done something productive. Ah, well. What's done is done. sable
