I worked the truck this morning at 4am. Last night I made sure I had plenty of sleep by going to bed around 7, although cramps and my new ear piercing made sleeping rather difficult at first. I read through a bit of Mrs. Dalloway. Even though I got off work at 12, I went to the store and picked up some things including lipsticks, ramen noodles, and ( Read more... )

       I cracked open the piggy bank again. I’m devoting what was left of my Travel fund for Scotland, Romania, and South Carolina to the giant Midwest ferret cage I’ve been promising Millie and Tobias for a week. I’m gonna go pick up Cherry from work and we’re going to buy it. It doesn’t seem like but I’ve been chipping away little by precious ( Read more... )

 
I should go to bed because I have to go out to Baytown tomorrow to buy that giant ferret cage for Tobias & Millie from Super Pet World. I have to be at work by 2. Even though I did recover some hours this week since Samantha called in sick, I’m angry enough with PetsMart that I’ve made up my mind its time to start looking for a job even though ( Read more... )

          James has had sex with a ton more people than I have. The only two ex-girlfriends of his that I have met…. are models. That’s cool…. Fuck. He goes back to training today so that’s good…. The sooner he’s in the sooner he’s out, right?
I really super want the Xbox 360 kinect. It’s the best, but I would never tell Daniel, Kasey, Terry, or ( Read more... )

1)      I wish we still had what we used to have because it was really really special. What happened? Which night made it change? Which conversation? Woods and waterfall are a far cry from today.

2)      I think you’re a butthead for not answering me but I guess you’re no great loss in my life anyway. I’m taking the video with me.

3)      You don’t ( Read more... )

It was the coldest winter ever. -  Many animals died because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep warm.  This way they covered and protected themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions.  After awhile, they decided to distance themselves one from the other and they began ( Read more... )

Neither of you know how much it bothers me and that’s good. If you did maybe none of us would ever get any sleep. This way, it’s me and myself like in the old days. It’s finally cold outside and I couldn’t be more pleased with it. I wish I could just sleep outside in a gigantic blanket with lots of pillows.

I thought for sure I’d have a text from ( Read more... )

Grandma is really sick. She looks so so thin. Just bones and skin, really. I put off going to see her when my brother was in town until he told me that mom had a priest come and give her the last rights. I was in the hospital with her and mom tonight for about three and half hours until visiting hrs were over. This week they’ve done an EKG, Xrays, ( Read more... )

You txt me, “If you’re able, please call Laurel”. I stare at my phone and take a deep breath. I kick off my work shoes and finish the last of my Chipoltle chips and salsa. I have the next three days off of work: Visit grandma, play WoW, clean cages, buy crickets, get my lips pierced shut so I can better understand the sound of a whisper. The ( Read more... )

I guess yesterday went pretty well and it’s hard to have two good days in a row. We did the Halloween contest at PetsMart and there wasn’t a big turn-out but it was nice to hear Linda tell me and Daniel that I was way better at the operation than he was. Linda does not hand out compliments like candy, and it’s nice to feel appreciated. PS- I am ( Read more... )
