I had to move a large couch into my small trailer in the horrible heat. I cut my arm and yelled a lot. I wish I had a stiff drink .... actually I wish I had several stiff drinks because tomorrow (and Sat) is "The Sidewalk Sales" downtown so I think I get to spend a good chunk of my shift outside guarding a damn table instead of being inside where the Air conditioning is! Being outside means I have to deal with all the creepers who will try to have a convo with my boobs..... ugg, spare me.
Oh and yay! Party in Assateague!!! Woot woot!

Hi Ladies!
Gosh - I spent from like 5-8 exercising and I'm still running on the endorphins. it's crazy. and some of my muscles feel like they're on fire. but it's kind of, nice? maybe i'm crazy.
newgirl - I agree with danmag whole heartedly... poisonous people will do nothing but bring you down. no need for them.
... I actually had something happen last week where one of my friends, who though I adore she is quite honestly the most self absorbed person I've ever met, got mad at me. Normally when people get mad at me I squirm to just make it go away and move along because I dislike conflict...However, this conflict started because I inadvertently told her she was self absorbed
Her: "you know what I found out the other day at dinner?"
Me: "what's that?"
Her: " remember matt? well he apparently had like this episode of depression last semester... and I never knew. how is that right? I mean, who knew I was so self absorbed?"
Me: "mhmm."
Her: "did you just agree?"
Me: " I didn't know it was a secret."
I could have said it in a more polite way but honestly, it just came out -- didn't even mean it too. she stopped talking to me for a week or so, then brought it up a month later and now she hasn't talked to me for a week and to be honest... I'm okay with that. which is pretty good for me. I find I grow alot during things long drawn out summers, so woohoo.
[Also, I imed my to be roommate for this semester at like 11, and we've been talking since. it's kind of a relief because I was nervous that like we wouldn't get along even though we've hung out a couple times and we're in an odd situation.. but hopefully this will show just how awesome our semester will be together]
I really, really try with my parents. But they don't like girls. Of course, all they had was daughters. But they don't give a damn and never really did, and their brand of abuse and/or neglect continues to plague us to this day.
So I was on the phone with mom yesterday. We talked about marriage and stuff. I told her that I'm afraid of dying alone. She did the thing she always does whenever the topic wanders to something deeper than what she bought at Whole Foods--she changed the subject.
"Mom, you changed the subject again."
"Well, honey, I don't know what to tell you."
She never does. My relationship with my family is depressing. I live 2000 miles away and have since college. I just can't be near them. There's no chemistry whatsoever. So little that i can barely relate to other people. I'm boring and haven't ever had a relationship. When I'm in trouble, I'm on my own. I attract strange karma.
Someone told me that if I move to LA, i'll get "eaten alive" apparently because I'm so spineless, or at least I seem that way to others. I guess I am. Thanks to Mom and Dad's neglect and/or abuse, I have to learn everything the insanely hard way.
I hate this. I hate my parents. I hate where I am. I hate working my ass off to garner a little respect. I hate how I'm hardening to life because I can't feel anything but anger and frustration.
Yeah, I'm dumping.

nygrl, that really does stink. I'm so sorry you are going through this with your family. You are more than welcome to vent to us anytime.
jag, I love the Lost Boys.
newgirl, we wouldn't be moving to Chicago - he'd be the performance manager for the states of New York and New Jersey. He'd just be there for training for 6 weeks. He used to live in one of the suburbs of Chicago when he was right out of college.
NYGirl- That sucks. I'm sorry that you have to go through all that. But just remember things will always get better. It sounds cheesey, but it just takes. It looks like you're making a life for yourself, so just keep going. It always gets better.
Bye Mais!! We'll miss you! :)
nygrl, I'm sorry. Rest assured we all feel that way at times, and as luscious said, it really does get better. Keep doing what you're doing (being independent)...things like having to learn the hard way, and being on your own are what will make you stronger.
Maisie, have fun! We'll miss you!
Have fun Maisie! Be good!
Have a great trip, Maisie! Miss ya!
So, JAG, how was Lost Boys and Jack? I like the sound of that combo....aww, poor Corey Haim.
It was excellent, clever! I never get sick of Kiefer Sutherland with a platinum blonde mullet.
I was planning on being lazy today until I go in to work at 6, but now I have to drive an hour and a half to make a deposit on a tattoo my friend wants to get when she visits up here in August. This, after calling six different places to make an appointment and them all being booked up. I am SUCH a good friend.
Thanks, ladies. Feels good to vent.
I wish things would get better. The inertia in my center of gravity and the bizarre karma on the fringes of my being have just gotta go. And haunt someone else, someone deserving of the stuff. Which would be someone incredibly evil.
A psychic told me I'm burdened with an ancient soul, which apparently accounts for the inertia. Apparently, i've been around freaking forever. Great. You'd think I'd have learned something by now.
Just a little reminder of what blonde-Kiefer-with-a-mullet looked like
I'm drinking Jack Daniels straight up, by myself, watching The Lost Boys. WHAT HAS MY LIFE BECOME?
Jag, that?s fantastic.
Clever, Keifer looks HOT with a mullet!
Danmag, I wanna be the one on the left in that picture simply because she?s wearing chaps.
Maisie, have a great trip!
Once again, that IS you in the chaps, BB. Don't try to deny it.
It's going really well Clever! I walked into the office to find the walls plastered with pictures of me. Then they ordered pizza for lunch and made a bunch of snacks. I'm definitely gonna cry.
Danmag, I was trying to be incognito with the chaps and bodypaint. I guess it didn't work...
So - who officially bombed her practice GRE test? that'd be me.
I think I might curl up in a ball for the rest of the day waiting for it to be over
I'm finally done with summer school. I'm so nervous to get my grade in that class. If I get lower in a C, it would have been a complete waste and I'd be in an even worse situation than I am in now. Keeping fingers crossed!
The vampire with the long hair in the Lost Boys was the one I liked.
Just imdb'ed him. He still looks hawt.
wait..that hot guy in your pic is the vampire to the left of Kiefer? He..looks..amazing!!
