well, the dreaded date has reached its conclusion, and I have to say, it was not as bad as I was afraid it would be. in fact, I'd go so far as to say that it went pretty well. I can't say that I like him.. yet. There's a possibility that I could like him some day. He's from Spain, he's very polite and friendly, he loves his mother, as any good ( Read more... )

So the show, of course, was great. It was a little strange because I was surrounded by married couples in their 30s, and in some cases, people in their 40s who were with their teenaged children. And many of the people were there just to see the opening act, who was Matt Nathanson. I've seen him before when he opened for Howie Day a few years ago, ( Read more... )

there's only 1 hour and 20 minutes until the Toad the wet sprocket concert!! I've been waiting a good 10 years for this, so now that it's down to less than 2 hours away I'm starting to get excited. mostly it feels unreal though.

what's so unnatural you ask? well, a customer asked me out today. that's not the kind of thing that happens to me. ever. so I'm of course freaking out a little bit. And mostly I'm freaking out because I said yes. And aparently he asked Hattie out "a long time ago", but she says not to worry about that. I didn't really know how to say no, so I didn' ( Read more... )

I've been working on my resume today, and my advisor is trying to get me to get over my modesty and be able to say nice things about myself. I've always had a hard time with accepting credit where it's due, and it's about time that I stood up for myself, so I'm trying my hardest to write as many good things about myself on my resume as I can.

I took out my eyebrow ring today. I hardly remember a time that I didn't have it, but at the same time I always forgot it was there. And now that it's out, it almost seems the same as having it. except for the two little holes of course. I had a meeting with my career advisor yesterday, and she suggested that I take it out for interviews, but that ( Read more... )

today was just weird. weird in good ways, but mostly weird in bad ways. there was a shooting, I found out that a co-worker's step-daughter died, and Melissa gave me a star tonight for not getting any item deletes in a week ( Read more... )

I can't believe it's 3:14 am already....... I only had 3 beers. and yet, I'm pretty drunk, I have to say. weird. and I want to thank the bartender who now knows my name, and I want to thank the other bartender who still remembers me and doesn't card me. and I want to say goodbye to Jen, who sadly I didn't get a chance to know better, but she will ( Read more... )

so for a project for my history of design class I have to compile some world facts from the egyptian, greek, and roman times. All I needed was 9 facts, but I somehow got 50 or so... and it seems that looking at a computer screen reading a bunch of history timelines for over 2 hours now gives a person a headache. I learned a lot though, and that's ( Read more... )
