Wedding

Yeah so it’s all set, food, cake, dress, hair, make-up, people, now all we have to do is show up! Wish me luck. =^_^=

Marriage

So I'm getting married on Halloween and there is soooo much to be done still...for the wedding that is. I'm getting married at my house so we are fxing up the damn place. We have painted all of inside and out, had new tile laid on over half the house, had cement layed, yard worked on front and back, and organized the shit out of the house.
I know that doesn;t sound like a whole lot but it is when you started on it around August! We have to be 100 percent ready by October 22...so we'll see what happens.

Happy 5 years and 2 months to me and Amatsu.

Yup that's right folks, Amatsu and I have been together for over 5 years now......Holy fucking shit! What the fuck am I thinking?!!!!!
Any way, yeah that's all. You may proceed.

Hello out there

Well I was a bit edpressed and emtional yesterday. I came home tonight in search of friends/families addresses to start sending my wedding invitations. ;)

In my search I found this poem I wrote shortly after my dad died. I thought this was some thing to share.... I hope I dont scare any one.

No Control

death

when people go

some show happiness

some show pain

no words can show

how we must live in vain

as we suffer

for those who have passed

only memories we have

to keep our loved ones alive

it feels like a bad dream

we wait to wake up and not suffer

we will never put them last

as they live a new life

when will it be my time to see again

if I die who will know

will people show

who will even care

why do we worry

if we live to die

so does it really matter when we go

if it was today

who would even know

2 years ago...

Well 2 years ago now my father passed. I was pretty fucked up from this for a while, personally I think I still am. But not a day goes by that I do not think of my daddy. I miss him so much, especially since I'm getting married soon and he is not 'here' to share that wonderful day with us. It is going to be tough to go through with this. That is the only reason why I have to agreed to get married years earlier. I was so affraid that I would, and still may, freak out at the wedding with out my dad.
Well, my older sister Jill, is a great writer let alone person. She knew my dad a little differently and had more time with him to know him better than I, so I think she put this best....

Saturday, July 24th, 2004. My father passed away. It was a sudden death, filled with complications. One day I will share the story but not today.

Today is for celebrating his life. So in honor of my father I will share a little about him.

He was the first born child of first generation immigrants - his mother of German and Irish descent and his father from Calabria, Italy. He was born in Adrian, Michigan May 15, 1946. He had 11 other siblings ( a traditional Catholic family) - 5 other brothers and 6 sisters. The family moved to the LA area of California when he was in his pre teens.

He was a very rambunctious child, and as a teen was always getting into trouble at school, with his parents and with the law. He hated going to school and would often skip classes to hang with his buddies and work on cars or race them. He was the classic bad boy - smoker, school skipper, car hawk, lady's man.

Cars were his passion. He loved the classics and enjoyed riding his motorcycle. He finally graduated from Hollywood High School, attending school with some Hollywood stars such as Barbara Hershey.

He escaped the Vietnam Draft because he was less then perfect - he lost his left eye when he was about 14 - but several of his friends didn't and a close one never returned. He wished that he could have gone.

But instead his life was spared and I thank the heavens for that or I wouldn't be here today.

My father met my mother when they were both working for First Interstate Bank. They fell hard and fast in love and eloped after a short courtship on July 4th, 1973. I came shortly after.

I remember my dad being there for all of my Softball practices and games, even volunteer coaching one year. He encouraged me and helped me learn the game and taught me how to throw. He was one of my biggest supporters and perhaps the reason why I played ball from the age of 9 until I graduated High School.

I have many fond memories of my father, but the most real of course coming from the 3 years before his death when I moved from California to Arizona to be closer to my family, especially him ( he had his first of 2 open heart surgeries in late 1998) and my youngest sister. Moving here was the best decision I could have made. I was able to spend those 3 years in very close contact with him and I would not trade that for the world.

My dad's love of cars was very deep. Through my pre teen and teen years he bought, remodeled/restored and resold at least a dozen cars/trucks. And his two most prized works of art were his 1947 Chevy truck, which he rebuilt from the ground up with a close car buddy, and the 1976 Pontiac Firebird he "stole" from my mom. It was her car originally but he sort of just took it from her.

He was a jokester and a silly man. He would often make up songs on the fly pertaining to whatever the situation was at the time. And he had these random silly verses he would sing too.

He loved hamburgers, a good piece of steak, and HOT salsa (thanks Mom!). He loved summertime and Lime Sherbert, freshly made strawberry shortcakes, boxing on HBO, especially with his one and only son in law.

He was passionate about life and everything that did. He lived life to the fullest. He wanted a tattoo for a very long time, but hadn't gotten around to actually getting one - until I moved to Arizona. Then he got two and talked of several more he wanted to get. He had a Cobra on one arm and a Scorpion on the other. He even went with me when I got my last tattoo shortly before my wedding (the butterfly on my foot). He sat there holding my hand and talking me through it. What a dad!

He enjoyed his only grandchild and loved her with all his heart. Through his illness' and suffering, she was his inspiration and the only medicine he needed. Whenever he was feeling down on himself or out on his luck, all he needed he would say was a dose of Nini. She was his ray of light. His pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

I miss him so much. I tried to think of him positively today, not to shed a tear for his death but celebrate the life he did have while he was here. But now, of course writing this I began to cry. I wish he was here to see how much Niyanna has grown and to enjoy his second granddaughter too.

Somedays, it seems like yesterday that he was here and other days it seems like forever ago. The pain is hardest when I see my mother suffering or think about how lonely she must still feel. After 30 years of marriage, a divorce and second marriage to my mother less than a year later, he had finally found true love and happiness within himself giving him the true opportunity to really love my mother and experience genuine love as well as give it. I am so happy that he got that before he passed.

My heart hurts right now, but I know tomorrow is another day and I will trudge forward. I resolve to keep him forever in my thoughts, his image and his ways etched in my mind. I worry, though, that I may forget. Thank God for my mother and my siblings to help keep him alive in order to share him with my girls when they get older.

Niyanna does much better now when we talk about him. It wasn't always that way. They were the best of buddies and it took her over a year to grasp the concept of death and understand that Grandpa wasn't coming back. I won't forget the day before his surgery. She screamed and kicked and hollered when we had to leave the hospital. Like she knew that was the last time we would see him. She was only two then, but I suppose her intuition was in high gear then too.

It's been a hard, long journey for my family. And today I pray for my mother's health and well being. If I lost her, I would be lost.

So, those of you with father's still on earth, hug them extra tight. Give them extra love and tell them how much you love and care for them. I would give almost anything to have my daddy back for even one day.

And so tonight I blow out the candle that has burning for him all day. With the flame goes his spirit, but only for today.

I'm alive!! (who cares...)

I know no one cares.
Ok, Ok, Ok I know, it’s been a long time since I’ve written. Believe me there is a lot that I’ve wanted to add in here but never get a chance to do so.

I’m going to sound like a jerk for saying this but why are fat counselor girls at work so loud?!
I’m walking to the break room, I get about 20 feet away and I hear loud people. I’m thinking there’s like a little group of people talking….Nope, just these 2 girls and at least the one was loud.

Oh and on my way to work I’m driving on I-10, just pass Broadway and I see this stupid ass lady in a Gold Honda Accord in the car pool lane with a big piece of what looked like toilet paper on the front of her car. I mean it was going across the front bumper up the windshield, over the top of the car and flapping around like a rag doll 10 past her rear bumper! I mean come on, pull over and take that shit off before you crash into some one cause you can’t see where you’re going. It was all over her windshield too. Then she started to get over like she was actually going to pull over but no, she just drives in the slow lane and doesn't pull over. Stupid Honda lady.

And speaking of traffic, what the fuck is with the heavy flow at 5:40 in the morning?!!!

I need mon-knee.

Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty....

I did some sewing last weekend. I sewed on some patches to my motorcycle jacket. This will keep me content until I buy a nice leather jacket. Being that my bike is KTTY, I had to use my kitty patches I’ve had for like 3 years. I have this envelop of patches that I never knew what to sew them on. I wanted to use something that I will have for a while, so why not the jacket right?

I’ll have to take a pic.

I lowered Simeon’s car last Tuesday in class and he might bring it for an alignment today. I have check out my car on the rack to see what I need to replace. I haven’t been able to drive my car because of that whole I hit. I might have some cash to fix it, I hope.

Alright my windshield was replaced today and now Amatsu has got my back rear window out. He made friends with the glass guy and he was nice enough to pull the glass for him. Now he is going to show me how to dynamat my rear deck and install new 6x9 I got a couple months ago.

Ok don’t feel like saying much, I’ve got school, haven’t read all the chapter, 45 minutes of work left….bye!

P.S.
I miss Pam and Rachel!!

My damn car.

Look at my dumb ass car on the freeway last night.
So I'm headed home after being at work for 11 hours and my tire goes flat while I'm on the freeway in moderate traffic. It was really my fault cause I didn't put air in it when I knew it needed air.

I wound up getting 2 tires for it, getting to bed late and being tired the next day. Oh well thats life.

Work

I'm sleepy....

New view for a day...

Ok so I think I'm getting camera phone happy these past days. We were moved to another building temporarily so that they can cut our cube walls down to 3ft instead of 6ft. Now I'm forced to look at the person by me, grrreat....
BUT I do get a view....of the next building. Well I get to see part of the mountains, freeway and the cul-de-sac. If I was driving my car I could park and see my car out the window below.
Damn this stupid lady next to me must of just sprayed perfume then came in to the building cause it reaks. Some people. Why don't they just have a sprayer that sprays in their nose and shirt every 20 minutes so they don't forget what it smells like.
Yeah so I joined the baseball team thing-a-ma-jig at work right. Well we have practice starting next month and I haven't even been to the batting cages yet! I guess I'll have to get my ass in gear and go. I know I told Rachel that I would take her so I'm thinking a saturday would work best since we both have that day off. I'm excited to play but I don't want to suck. I mean I'm not in too bad of shape but I haven't tried to hit a baseball in years! I don't know if my eyes can watch the ball any more.

Hahaha I just over heard Nick Smtih say "Don't smoke crack"...I think that he was referring to the Adam Sandler movie, Water Boy. There is a part where he talking to some little kids in football and says soe weird crap. Then the famous football player says "Which leads me to the next thing...Don't smoke crack"

I've noticed that Thursdays is my day to update this site since we're not horribly slammed. Which is cool with me especially since I don't have any one I can talk to really. Jerks.

Stupid vending machine can suck my left tit. I want a freaking rice krispie treat and the machine says no. Something must be jammed cause the whole row is full and it is not moving. I dont want to walk over to the other building and waste my whole break on a damn treat. But it is sooo good. Sweets kill me. I'm not too horribly fond or chocolate but sweet and sours stuff makes me drool. I look like a fat kid eating cake. I'm suprised I wasn't a fat kid with 100 cavities when I was little because of how much candy I ate. I guess all that outside activity made up for it although I did have cavities.

Ahhh man am I sleepy. Oh yeah my mom did my taxes and I picked them up last night so I left it to Amatsu to mail them. I hope he did it cause if not I'm going to KILL him. ;) Holy crap I still have 3 more hours, damn this day is going by way too sloooooow. I want to go ride my motorcycle. I haven't rode in like 3 weeks, wow has it been that long. I may just have to take it to school tonight then and ride this weekend.
ZZZzzzZZzzzZzzzzzZZzzzzZZZZzzzz....*wipes drool*
Alright now I think I'm rambling.
Ahh....Ummmm...Ehhh, OH! Today is Creppy E's birthday and I told him to get some poon-tang! Hey Pootie Tang was a great movie and Biggie Shorty was cooool. She always had cool outfits and colored wigs. I think I just like saying Pootie Tang and Sepa-Tie! Sepa-Tie!
The creppy thing about me and outfits is that if i could I'd be a stripper just so I could have the 'cool' outfits to wear. I seriously would. Those of you that know me, have heard me say this before...but I'd have to get the boobs to match. ;(
Look its a KITTY!! =^_^=

First day back to school

Heres more pics of what I saw when I parked at school Tuesday evening.... a damn rainbow. ;)





So I took a mid term just before spring break and wasn't sure how I did. After going over the test as a class we found like 4 questions that were marked wrong but were actually right. So that will make almost every one score go up.
At tis point I think I got 112/140...well see what it changes to. I know that is still 80 percent but I wanted to do better. After going over the test I was angry with myself cause some questions I should of gotten right. I think being that I get so nervous during tests I went too fast and didn't read the questions right. Some I left out a work when reading which changed how I answered it. Oh well can't do much now. Then in class I was sooo tired I didn't do too much but yawn. I tried to help but the damn van we worked on was a big pain the the arse. We didn't even leave school until about 10:30. I haven't been getting much sleep this week and that sucks.

Weekend.

Well this weekend didn't go over as planned...
I went to the death metal concert but didn't stay for the whole thing.
Didn't get to go to the beer festival or Nopi.
The metal concert was very wierd cause there was this guy that would come up to me when evr Amatsu left to potty. Even when I went outside to smoke a cig he was there like 2 minutes later. It turns out that he tried to give me a spiked drink but Amatsu got it. I was driving and kept telling the guy that I didn't want a beer.
Log story short, Amatsu puked up and then was fuuuuucked up! He actaully called a doc and he was told that it sounded like GHB...you know one of the date rap drugs. How freaking scary man!!!

Oh and I was on the freeway and got to see the sunset, here was the sunset I saw last night.

Oh look it's Thursday again....

Well it’s Thursday again and what am I doing?? Updating my posts again…why you ask? cause I’m freaking BORED!! I have no one around me, my team has Thursday/Friday off and I have Friday/Saturday off now….

So I walk in the break room to get some water and see Derrick Wise with the biggest smile on his face staring behind me. He says look, so I turn around and what do you know, an ice cream machine!! Sweet! I’m happy now, we started off busy today but it is my Friday.

I have a very busy week end too.

Thursday after work, I’m getting my hair cut, finally, then going home and washing my dog, possibly the gym then hanging out with the other half.

Friday we’re supposed to be going to a death metal concert to see Kreator and Napalm Death. I don’t think I’ve heard there music but I’ll go to go and check it out. Anyway I can dress all crazy while I’m there! Amatsu was supposed to burn me a cd of there music a week or so ago but never did. I have to judge how they sound live. That’s ok because when I saw NIN at the Marque Theatre, I saw Dresden Dolls for the first time and loved them! They opened for NIN. That was a good concert but I’m sure not one of the best NIN has had. Trent is getting old and didn’t have the his edge like he should have. It might have been because of the venue but I’m still happy I got to see them live, finally!

Saturday we are supposed to go the Az Beer Festival in Tempe. They normally hold it in Central Phoenix but this year they moved it to Tempe Town Lakes I think this is better for 2 reasons.

1. It will be easier to find a ride to and from or even call a taxi if needed, that will be cheaper than central phoenix.
2. If we get bored then we can leave and wonder down Mill Ave. even though we all hate Mill it would be something to do. The crappy thing is that I can’t hold liquid for shit. If I’m drinking anything from water to beer, I’m always running to the potty every 10 minutes. I hate that part.

Man I just realized that Amatsu and I are going to be spending the whole damn weekend together. Maybe I can hold out to kill him by Sunday cause that’s a lot of time together than normal. I’m glad that we actually get some time together, it’s nice. What can I say I miss the dumb ass some times.

Sunday if I don’t kill Amatsu then…

Hmmm, I didn’t think that far in to the week end. Most likely nursing my hang over or trying to fix the house.

I hate my house sometimes. We are having plumbing issues yet again. I took a 10-15 shower and when I got out I heard the toilet start to make noise like air is in the lines, kinda like blubbling. Then the bath tub started to show water come up the tub and the shower wasn’t draining the last little bit of water, it was bubbling too. I woke up Amatsu again to let him know so he could call the plumber guy back. Well see what happens now…

Yaaaaa Rain!!

Today is Saturday, March 11, 2006

I am in Arizona and it is finally freaking raining! It’s not like it rained for 5 minutes then stayed cloudy nope, it’s coming down like cats and dogs. Where the hell did that saying come up from any way?

I love google….

Raining cats and dogs

Meaning

Raining very heavily.

Origin

This is an interesting phrase in that, although there's no definitive origin, there are several speculative derivations.

The first thing to say is that the phrase seems to be unrelated to the well-known antipathy between dogs and cats, which is made word in the phrase "fight like cat and dog". In fact "raining cats and dogs" doesn't make a great deal of literal sense and the explanations below that attempt to link the phrase to felines, canines and weather seem rather feeble.

Here goes though - take your choice.

1. It comes from mythology. Witches, who often took the form of their familiars - cats, are supposed to have ridden the wind. Dogs and wolves were attendants to Odin, the god of storms and sailors associated them with rain. Well, some evidence would be nice. There doesn't appear to be any to support this notion.
2. Cats and dogs were supposed to be washed from roofs during heavy weather. This is a widely repeated tale. It got a lease of life with the message "Life in the 1500s", which began circulating on the Internet in 1999. Here's the relevant part of that:
   
   I'll describe their houses a little. You've heard of thatch roofs, well that's all they were. Thick straw, piled high, with no wood underneath. They were the only place for the little animals to get warm. So all the pets; dogs, cats and other small animals, mice, rats, bugs, all lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery so sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof. Thus the saying, "it's raining cats and dogs."
   
   This is nonsense of course. It hardly needs debunking, but, least there be any doubt...
   
   Dogs lived in thatched roofs? No, of course they didn't. Even accepting that mad idea, for them to have slipped off when it rained they would have needed to be on the outside - hardly the intuitive place for an animal to shelter from bad weather.
3. The phrase is supposed to have originated in England in the 17th century when city streets were filthy and heavy rain would occasionally carry along dead animals.
   
   The idea that seeing a dead cats and dogs floating by in storms would cause people to coin this phrase is far fetched, but just about believable.
4. Another suggestion is that it comes from a version of the French word, catadoupe, meaning waterfall.
   
   Well, again. No evidence. If the phrase were 'raining cats' or if there also existed a French word, dogadoupe we might be going somewhere with this one. As there isn't lets pass this by.

Alright maybe I’m sorry I looked that up. There’s more links but I randomly picked this one. It was raining all day and it was freaking cold. It was so cold that it supposedly snowed in Scottsdale and people saw snow on the four Superstition Mountains. How freaking cool it that, snow in the suburbs of Arizona!! I wanted to go and play in what little snow we got but my car would have issues since it’s messed up. I guess that just means I need to get my ass in gear and snow board this year, I mean the snow is trying to come to me it’s been so long. heeheehee.

I enjoyed it considering that we never get rain and snow for that matter. I hope it does it again, plus we need to have our normal thunderstorms.

I remember the first year I moved out here with my family there was some new things that happened. First the thunderstorm that were like light shows and loud as fuck. Then it was the hottest summer Az had in years (freaking great for me let me tell ya). The thunderstorms scared me at first because they were so loud and crackly sounding that it literally sounded like and looked like it was in your house. It took me a little while to get used to now I love them.

Ok so on with Saturday. I painted a lot of my house today while it was raining but didn’t make it to the gym. Oh well. I’m eventually painting my entire house including the outside as well. I’m trying to get my house ready for my wedding this October. I’m excited for it especially the honeymoon, we’re going on a cruise!! I kinda want to have a big wedding but I’d rather be able to spend a monster crap load on the honeymoon. I guess I’m going with a normal traditional wedding dress. I originally wanted to go with a Goth type almost renaissance dress but for one the ones I was finding were like $3000. Plus Amatsu is wearing a zoot suit, that wouldn’t go very well. So boring white tradition it is. I’ll figure out a way to spice it up, I know I can J

I know people don’t care about my wedding but all I know is that Pam and Rachel better be there, or I’ll hunt them down!

So Attention! Attention!

October 28, 2006 DO NOT MAKE PLANS, except for hanging with me! ;)

Stupid pluming.

I hate my house sometimes. We are having plumbing issues and I hate it.

Thursday, March Ninth, Two Thousand Six, Fourteen Hundred and Twenty Seven Hours.

So I sit here at work BORED out of my goure! The title explains how I feel, everything is just dragging out. I am still sitting by my 'old' team but my days of are differnet, Thursdays I am alllll alone. I have no one to talk to unless I yell around the building to Sam. She sits next to my old spot, which is about 20 yards away. Since I switch my schedule my 'new' manager does not really have a designated area for us to sit, so his team is scattered. I don't really care to move again since I've move 4 times already just in this building and only been in here for 6 months I think, not fun.

I guess this is an oportunity to update my crappy blog being it has been months since I've even logged in. I haven't even check any one elses blog. I'm such a jerk...well there is actually a valid excuse. I have school and haven't been able to use the computer much from home since we have people staying with us. We are helping out a couple friends get back on there feet. They just need a couple weeks to find jobs and place to live. I have no problem helping people in that maner.

So yeah back to hell, I mean work. I applied for an internal position that I'm pretty sure I did not get. They said something like I would receive an email last night that I need to reply back to the next day. Well no email and it's already 12:30 the next day. I really wanted that position cause for one Amatsu was trying to help me get it by adding a few words for me. Then it would be 4 tens but on third shift. That would work well with me being that I used to stay up all hours of the night before I had to start working mornings to do night school. Amatsu and I would be vampires!! Seriously, we only be up at night and sleep during that day all the time. I would be great.

Oh and yesterday I get a text saying our pipes are backing up. The toilets and bathtubs are backing up sewage

Also I have a mid term tonight that I know I'm not ready for. I'm tired, stressed, and nervous.

Kids

The other day I was reading my sister blog and found this....
My sister Jill told me that her daughter Niyanna (age 3 1/2) told her this the other day while they were on the way to go to the library for reading time.

Niyanna: Mom, you need oil.

Jill: What? I need oil?

Niyanna: Yeah you need to go to the gas station.

Jill: Ohhh I need gas?

Niyanna: Yes you need gas.

Jill: You know it does look like I need gas.

Niyanna: Yeah you need gas cause look at all these cars passing you, your car is too slow.

I thought it was so cute!
I want a kid so that I can hear this silly stuff but I want to skip the first year them growing up.

I'm getting baby fever again, I think caase our friends baby had her 1 year birthday on March 5. Her name is Summer and she is soooo cute cause she is like a barrle of sunshine.
I dont want to have to deal with the being fat like a house pregnant stuff. I just want a kid but they can't be a teenager either. Some of the growing up stuff is going to suuuuuck.
Oh well, I'm sure my mom hated me at one point.

Stupid row-ads, rooow-ids, rooooads...

Me and Amatsu went to the indoor swap mart today. I've never been to the swap mart before and I've always wanted to go but just never did. So we get there and go straight to the knifes. I bought a new blade for 35 bucks too. It’s Smith & Wesson which are expensive knifes. When the guy told me the price he was like, “is that right? Hmm well 35 bucks it is”, Because of how cheap it was so I jumped on that. I’ll add a pic later so that you can see it. I also got 2 wall scrolls for the house. Amatsu bought this wolverine looking blade thing, a new bong and something else. I can’t remember what now, oh well.

Then on the way home I was heading to get on the freeway at the Camelback on ramp, well I starting to gain speed and hit this chunk of road that was worked on. I knew it did some damage cause when I hit that, it made such a loud unwanted sound, I probably had a stupid look on my face when I heard it. The freaking thing was like a 4x4 square that was filled in but they left it like 4 inches too low. So when I hit it my upper ball joint and upper control arm slammed in to my upper strut tower and almost punched a hole through. Now my alignment is all off, I sit lower on that side and I rub like crazy. I not happy about that at all. It sucks actually…ok, ok, I was freaking pissed. Amatsu tried to get me to calm down while I was driving, I did a bit but I didn’t show how pissed I was cause I was driving. I can’t do much there. I first thought that my front bumper was dragging but it wasn’t, good thing.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAM!!

This is a big Happy birthday to Pam! She is 21 today and I can't be in Las Vegas with her and rachel so i decided the least I could do is post something for her. I hope they are fuuuuuucked up by now and can't see straight. I know I would be!
Lost of love to you guys and I will be seeing you some time Pam, even if I have to go out to Colorado.

Happy Veneral Disease Day!

I thought this was cute.
So enjoy it and go get some...yo know what I mean too.

I wonder?

What is Amatsu doing on Wednesday, January 11, 2006 at 2am?

This…

Master Control

Now wouldn't this be nice to have? Instead of telling your sig other to do stuff all the time, you could just push a button. You could do what ever you want then click, he's getting you a drink! Yeah that'd be nice, but we can only dream...

bip-pa-di, bop-pa-di, boo

This week seems soooo incredibly looong, it sucks big donkey dick with very big testie-glights!

http://www.bimka.ru/games/dogcatch.swf

I'm sure there was something interesting that I wanted to say, but I do not remember. Oh well.

Christmas

Ah man I think this felt like the best Christmas ever to me. I was in a good mood all weekend, I go to hang out with friends and Amatsu’s family (like normal) and I got a new freaking exhaust for my motorcycle!!! It is a micron exhaust. I was excited. It is a high mount exhaust so it come up along the side up my seat to the rear. The can is black then changes to chrome. It is really sweet I'll have to post a pic up. May be I'll just though one on my website. I helped Amatsu put it on yesterday being that we had Christmas on Christmas eve.
Once we got it on we drove our motorcycles to our friends house in ahwatukee-foothills. His mom said that we had to come over for dinner so we did. Man you think Amatsu would miss an event with food included??? No way. The food was sooo damn good too plus we go to see Scotts dog Daz. That damn dog does not get fed enough food. He is so skinny that you could see his spine and pelvic bones on his back. Amatsu told him that he needs to feed his dog more, I said go buy him a steak!
Daz has a pretty coat still for a black dog, he's a blue nose pit bull.

So yeah needless to say I am going to be riding my motorcycle to work for a while now. Yaaaaa to noisey exhausts!

Stupid christmas season

Tis the season to be broke, fat, cold (in most places) and annoyed with all the shoppers and having to go to the mall.
I think I'm getting anxious for my tat's again. I might just go get the 4 kitty tattoo done next month, we'll see how broke I get this year.
This morning I slowly woke up, got out of bed and go on the computer. I had to print out my xmas list for the last few people and go shopping.

I told Amatsu about another present that I wanted to get him but wasn’t sure which to get him so I show him and have him to decide. I know it will not be here for xmas but he will get it. So I ordered him the new tail lights online.

Now I have to move on to the list I printed. I was not happy about going to get the presents because that meant that I had to drive to the mall. I don’t mind going to the mall if I have to, but that’s the thing it’s if I have to. I like to walk around the mall just to walk but that’s it. I don’t like the people, the noise, the damn music they try to play, and the people. At least the mall by me is the newest mall in the valley so all the kids, yes, kids go there. It’s freaking like Disney land on a weekend night. It is seriously that bad. I remember going into a movie fairly earlier one day during the summer and I think we came outside around 8 or 9pm. The whole outside of the theatre was nothing but damn loud and annoying kids. I don’t think that anyone, girl OR boy was taller than me or came up tall enough that they didn’t strain their neck looking up. I was annoyed so bad it sucked. Since the walls are so high their chipmunk voices carried and echoed.

Anyways back to today, I get to the mall, park, walk in and try to figure out where I need to go first. I see the chocolate shop Godiva. I hurry over to proceed to buy stuff. I figured that the least I could do is get Rachel and Kelly some good chocolate. So I walk in and this guy tries to help me out. He goes through his shpeal and I’m not buying it so he moves on. I say naaah, then me moves on. Finally I just wandered elsewhere and he tried to help others. I was wandering around and he started a conversation with me. Asking if I was in school and what major so I told him. He was like, wow, cool. I’m going to be P.E. teacher. I said well that’s good. Then in the back of my mind I wanted to say ok so when you become a teacher how may bitches do you think you’ll get? Or what out for those kids, ya know with all these teachers doing high school kids now. BUT I stopped myself before I offended some one or just sounded like a jackass. It was still funny to me though.

So I finish with that and move on to the next store, Bath & body works. I walk by a pretzel shop and think of how much I want a pretzel and walk by and in to the shop. I planned on getting stuff for Amatsu’s mom and sister, but of course I had to treat myself too. I finally get out of there and walked to another shop to check a few things out. Well I got Amatsu another small present then got the hell out of the mall.

Later I get to work and drop off my present to Kelly and she wasn’t as excited as I thought she’d be but she liked it. Rachel on the other hand about orgasmed at her desk when she saw then and said she almost saw heaven when she ate the chocolates. I didn’t try them ever thought she offered, but they are chocolates from Belgium. I’ll just have to get a box of my own. ;)

Now I sit here with nothing but my new Ibanez guitar that is on the way for me and I keep looking up tabs. So I have something to play when I get the piece. Now I have to get some one to tune it for me when it gets here. Amatsu should be able to, he used to play bass.

I’m stoked!!!

Stupid shit that doesn't work when they say it will

Stupid server maintenance, stupid school, stupid students, stupid operations team….seriously. WTF?!!! I work for a school that is going through a large amount of server maintenance. This all started last night at 11:00 sharp. I had to tell students for the last hour of my shift to try back in the morning, ALL the servers are going through scheduled maintenance. Every one was notified, it is even on the website, but nooo they have to call in and bother our normal hour of quiet time. Geeez. Then this morning the maintenance was supposed to be complete at 5:00am. Nope that didn’t happen. We were notified it would be another hour. Nope that’s not right either. Later at noon we were notified that this issue would last for another 4 hours. Nope that’s not correct. So here I am, a day later and students are still not able to access their classes online.

Screw this I’m going to lunch. I have a salad and my left over pasta salad from yesterdays pot luck.

A whole lot of nothing it what I did.

So today I came in, y corded with EOS, had training, minutes later had a pot luck with the team, stuffed my face then got back on the phones. I didn’t even take a call until 7:10 at night. I slacked off one way or another (it felt like) for the first 4 hours of my shift.

I brought pasta salad. Either no one likes pasta salad or they did like it. The people that ate it liked it, so they say. After wards I was motivated to get rid of the left overs since I am on the motorcycle. I don’t want to have to worry about packing it all up again to take it home again.

Weather

It was not bad today. I drove to the gym for a 30 minute work out, which is almost pointless. I woke up late, I wanted to be up around 9:30 and I freaking slept til 11:30. Man that sucks. I had a nice ride to work today, I even opened a couple jacket vents on the way after getting gas.
I get to work and check the weather at home and it was like 67 degrees. A few hours later I checked colorado springs for the heck of it and the freaking high today is 37 degrees with snow showers. Man I want to see snow! Pam is lucky and actually gets a white xmas not that shes back home. It's supposed to be 73 the next couple days then 75 rolling into the weekend. I hope it cloudy and freezing on xmas at least.

So Amatsu tells me last week that my present is not what he originally wanted to get me. The are on back order or something. A few days later he says that they can not ship the present out for what ever reason.....(don't ask cause your guess is a good as mine unless you know already)
Then he says that he has changed the present to something different and it may not be here on time for xmas. Later he says they shipped it with 2 day shipping. Friday I guess the present came when we went to pick up a park for his car and our friend that was over hid it. Amatsu tells me that I can not look in Cappy's room. I said ok. Saturday he opens it to make sure its the right one...nope, ehhhh, wrong, try again. Not the right thing.
Soooo finally today he says that he had to buy another one of the correct 'present' to have it shipped on time. Then he will fuck with shipping the incorrect present back and getting refunded.
Man that is very sweet that he is paying double and waiting to get refunded and all the hassle that he has to deal with.

Then I have a pot luck…or pot lock as Tim said once. I’ was sitting here thinking it was next thursday, nope, it freaking tomorrow. So I have to go to the store and pick up the things after work in an hour or get up that much earlier to buy the shit and make it in the morning. Yeah I’m making pasta salad by the way. I get to freeze again on the way home. The bad part is that my thighs don’t get much protection. I know that’s what chaps are for but yeah right, I wont wear chaps. My hands get cold too even with my thicker gloves. Oh well enough complaining, who cares?

P.S.
BAM IS SOOOO HOT!!!

Enjoy the weather while it's cool and not blazing.

Yesterday Amatsu and I washed my motorcycle and his motorcycle. Greased the chains, aired the tires and adjusted the suspension on both motorcycles. Then I washed my car and the El Camino I am trying to sell. I did a lot of washing. We decided to go to Cycle Gear and Amatsu got himself a really nice leather jacket. I love it. I wanted it but it is a guy jacket and fits him perfectly.

Later a friend came over and make ham, masked potatoes, pork and beans, salad and

We forgot that food was being made and stopped for Schlotzsky’s. When we came home, Amatsu still ate food anyways. So I showered, go tready and drove us and a friend to my aunts (not ants) house for a xmas party deal. That was funny cause we showed up around 940 and my aunt just had a pool atble installed, the guy left minutes before we got there.

We drank, played pool, chit chatted then picked up more beer and went to my house.

Last night, or this morning, I didn’t get to bed until about 6:30am. Then I slept until 1 in the freaking afternoon. Amatsu made sure I woke up. I joked with him and asked ‘what did you make me for breakfast? I ask him that jokingly when ever he gets up before me. I laughed then took my shower. A few minutes after I got out, Amatsu made me freaking breakfast and brought it to me, it was eggs and cinnamon sugar toast! Yaaaaa, food. That was nice, plus he packed my lunch. Man that was so cool.
And work today was not half bad. I had a team meeting, long one on one then started my orientation stuff for an hour then went to lunch. Such a hard day for me. That’s ok cause I’m tired from the weird sleep. I couldn’t fall asleep this morning and when I did I woke up 2 hours later and couldn’t go back to sleep.
Since the stupid holidays are here I’ve been up and down with being depressed. I miss my dad more because I think of family events that every one is doing. Again I would give anything to have my dad be here to walk me down the aisle on my wedding day, that’s all I want to have in my life. Knowing that my own dad gave me away on my wedding day is my wish. If he could hang out for the crazy wedding reception then just go away like how they neglected him at the hospital. I will never forgive those stupid people….ever!
On that note I ran a crossed this and I like it. http://www.three-lights.net/magazine17.html

I rode my motorcycle today and man was it nice out. We get to wear jeans this whole week so you bet your ass I will be riding my motorcycle this whole week too! I found a IICON ladies jackets! http://www2.powersportequipment.com/icon_catalog.asp

Yeah I want the IICON kitty jacket. I found matching chaps too….hahaha!

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Then I come in to work today and there is a new person that is sitting across from me, some chick with a weird looking hat, kinda like an elf hat with ugly colors.
Anyways about 6 months ago and two 3 managers ago, I used to by her. She has this weird voice, I can’t describe it. Pam knows what I’m talking about, she used to sit right next to me, so she has to listen to her too.
Well my voice is still messed up.
Mike sent me link to a website that has cool Guitars. I think I want this one http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=guitar/search/detail/base_pid/519417/

Check it out I think it’s nice.
I just found this. I like it. http://www.pawstar.com/index.htm

I think this is funny as well. http://www.spikedhumor.com/articles/2216/Numa_Numa_at_American_Idol.html

Wrong but funny. http://www.bofunk.com/video/2597/scare_fun.html

My response to Pam’s post from the other day about living life as if this was the last day of your life is:
I agree with that a bit. I don't want to die when I'm 70 years or older. By then I will be all wrinkly, saggy, with a crackly voice, scary, old hag.
I want to kick the bucket by the time I'm about 60. I would have had 5 years of senior citizen crap, I'll have full head of white hair, unless I die it too much and burn it off, I won't be able to see, which means I wouldn't be able to drive. Right there is enough of a reason to off myself.

I'm really sick now.

Then on Saturday I woke up and could barely talk. It hurt so bad that I could feel my neck and throat straining when I tried to talk. I have to go to work tomorrow too, I hope I sound better at least.
I don’t feel like typing much so poo on you. J

Ok I'm sick.

I woke up this morning and got ready to see my doctor that I haven’t seen in about 2 years. Man I guess it has been that long since I’ve have medical insurance, wow. I get there and pay then I wait to get called in. As were walking to the room the nurse lady asks me if I’m sick cause she can smell the cough drop in my mouth. I was kinda embarrassed. I tell her that I slept with the heater on all night a couple of nights before and now my throat is all soar and I sound funny. She says really, my husband tells me that and I just say no way that’s not possible. I kinda laughed cause here is a nurse telling her husband he is wrong when he is not. Stupid nurses. I go through my appointment and doc goes through my blood work. Well it turns out I am anemic, so I’m not getting lazy I’m just always tired cause of it. Stupid anemia.

So on friday I started to loose my voice, I think it took a vacation. So of course Amatsu is all like no kissing. Your not getting me sick…What a JERK. Just messing, I don’t need to get him sick.

Crash!

Last night I’m heading home and I see a cop in the distance of my side mirror, since I have no rear view, and I’m thinking great I’m getting pulled over. He was no wear insight when I passed but and I’m actually not speeding. I notice he haulin balls and I pull over. Well what do you know, he passes me. Whew! So I continue to drive home. I’m about a half mile from my house and I see red and blue near my house. I just figured some one go in an accident on the road and they are blocking the lanes. The closer I get the worst it gets. Then I notice the air is very dirty/dusty, kinda like a big cloud of dirt. Now I’m about 1000 feet away and it looks like the whole road is closed. Now I’m about 100 feet away and I see about 6 cop cars and one suburban cop car surrounding this guy on the sidewalk. I look over and he’s already in cuffs but the cars are lined up like they surrounded some one. Well right behind the guy is a big ass whole in the wall and his F250 Ford is in my neighbors backyard!! Man that must have been wasted to pull that one. I live on a main street (if you didn’t figure already) and I’m 3 backyards away from the intersection. It’s a main road and crossing road goes in to neighborhoods. I must of arrive like minutes after it had happened cause the dust cloud was still there. Man that was crazy, I just hope that no one get the chance to pummel through our wall. That would suck a fat nut.

DEAD iNN

Last night I went and saw Mike from Dead iNN, a guy at my work, play a show with his band. He’s the bassist. I’ve heard their music before and liked it so I wanted to see performance.

Yeah remember that druggie I was talking about at Taco Bell the other day? Well I got across the road to the del taco/circle K to get some cash and a bag of chips for my sam-mitch I’m headed to get. On my way out that guy says do you speak Spanish, in Spanish to me. I looked back and it was the same damn dude! What a jerk. I mean come on my car kinda stands out and he had no idea that he had talked to me a few days before. I said you already told me that story then go it and drove away. After a few minutes I realized I wanted to say, You don’t remember asking me money with your bullshit story about your kids needing to eat and all that shit??!! But then I realized he would have no idea what I was saying. I should of yelled at him anyways so other wouldn’t give him money. It kinda pissed me off to see him trying to pull that shit again. Well it would of made me feel better if I would of yelled at the damn Mexican bastard!

Anyways I had Schlotzsky’s that night and it was good damn it. ;)

Stupid drivers

I almost got on a head on collision today.

I went to go get blood drawn and on my way home I’m driving through some construction and this guy starts to come down my ‘construction lane’. That was creepy. I wanted to yell at that guy so bad…… and they say women can’t drive. He did give me the ‘sorry’ hand wave but fuck, if he would of hit me sorry wouldn’t of cut it/ I would of cut him, kill him something!

I got free breakfast/lunch today and saw my mom, sister, and two nieces! Mmmm French toast, eggs and bacon.

So I gave this guy some change out side of taco bell. He asked if I knew Spanish, I said very little in Spanish and he busts out with this said story. Something about he’s stranded and his kids need to eat. I know that it is a bull shit story but I gave him my change anyway.

Amatsu says it’s just for his crack habit. I say maybe it is. Maybe I just supported his habit to help him overdose on it. I mean come on those people don’t care about anything, they have nothing and they need to die already. I know some people think it is mean but seriously , what are they doing that is do great. They smell, look bad, they’re lazy, don’t work, and are slowly killing themselves.

Email war

So I get ready for work today, amatsu was in bed before I even got in the shower and I leave about 10 minutes earlier than normal. I start to hea towards the freeway and realize that I need to go another way than I normally do. The stpid road construction workers think it was a good idea to just pile the pavement around the railroad tracks, the road is lower than normal cause they haven't laid the pavement down quiet yet. Plus the damn man whole is above the pavement about 4 inches I swear. That is one way to tear off my front bumper.
So anyways I remember all this at the last minute and decide to go down the street jst before that 'bad', normal street. Then what do you know I get stuck behind a bus. The bus stops and lets the kids out, then further down is a school zone, then a cross walk where the stop sign holder people are stopping traffic. Menwhile 10 later or so I get to the main street, az ave. I turn on to it and start to head to the freeway. Well I get on the freeway and now I have to rush ot make up for the lost time. So much for leaving early. I swear every time I try to leave early to get something done or just be early it jst makes it worst! Fucking, god damn, mother fucking, cock sucking, shits for brains, time method. Some times I wish there was more time in a day other times I wish the damn day would just end.
And that Stupid people would Fuck off.

I want a kitty like this!!! =^_^=


























This is funny though.

So I’m at work having a cool fight through email. I’m looking through google for cat pics and come acrossed this. baghdadgirl.blogspot.com/ What a freak this girl is. Is this what Baghdad chicks think of ? Weirdos.

Now I would of paid to see this.

This is where I go that pic from, another interesting site

Case of the mondays

Wow it was busy today….

So I finally emailed Pam back and realized that I haven’t really mentioned the fact of marriage, Amatsu and me.

Yeah so we’ve decided to get married next year in October. I want to get married on Halloween but that falls on a Tuesday next year, so we’ll see. I really want to invite all of my family, but considering that most of them live in California I'm not sure that I want to have that going on. All I know is that I want to go to Japan or Europe for the honeymoon! Yaaa honeymoon.

It’s about 35 degrees at my house right now…….. yessss!

Sorry I’m so boring guys.

Back to work

Ahhh man I did not want to come in to work today. I woke up said bye to friends that stayed over last night as they left. Made me some fried eggs with toast then freaking passed out on the couch for like 30, I think. Then woke up moved to where my cute deg was and laid next to her for like 20 more minutes. I was stalling until the last freaking moment that I could before going into the shower today. I could of slacked and called in, nope, I stuck it out and came in. It’s not so bad today luckily, watch me get a two hour call after my lunch now. It is really cold today, it’s nice. According to the yahoo weather at 8:50 it was 43 degrees outside at my house and 51 degrees here at work. Today I decided to wear my big ass black furry coat. I got it like 2 years ago from Hot Topic. I love this coat but I can only wear it like for a month since it doesn’t get so cold here for very long.

Trees

I bought an artificial 6.5 foot xmas tree and a 32 inch fiber optic tree. I came home and plugged the fiber optic tree in and left for the gym. I was actually happy that I went again finally. I hadn’t gone since wednesday. Amatsu went to meet Scooter for beer. I guess on the attempt to come back to our place Megan started an argument over deodorant. The started a fight with her dad. Seriously deodorant. Her mom said that she would get another but that wasn’t good enough so she tried to grab her dad’s throat. Then he smacked her I guess and then fought for a minute. I wasn’t there to see it but this is according to Amatsu.

While they were watching round one I was putting up my tree. It looks ok, I like it, that’s all that counts, right? I don’t think the degs will go after this one really. Jack did mess with the real tree I got last year so we’ll see. We got o box of stuffed animals that are the degs new chew toys so I think they will be preoccupied enough for a while. So we had our friends 2.5 year old boy over and he loooooves cars. It was so cute. He kept saying, cool car, fast car. Then Scooter brought over his daughter, she is about 9 months now and damn she’s cute. I hope I have a boy though. I mean don’t get me wrong I would still love my child if I had a girl but man I want a boy.

The ‘when are you guys having a kid’ question came up again. It was kinda funny cause Amatsu says like 4 or 5 years from now. I look over and say nah-uh, I want to have one by the time I’m 25. My thing is that I don’t want to have a child when I’m 30 or so cause when they grow up I want to be able to keep up and have them be comfortable enough to talk to me. Not like they’re talking to come old lady. But when I think about how close 25 is, in about 2 more years is when we should start trying. We plan to get married next year then that would mean to start trying a year after. I guess really that is ok but man it will come fast! I’m still even scared to hold my niece that is two months. I’m such a jerk.

Alright enough baby fever.

Friday

I decided to work on my stereo. I haven’t had stereo in like month man. I can’t believe that I let it go for so long too. I guess that’s why I was driving my motorcycle more. Well that and the weather has been very nice. So I got this wild hair up may ass again and grab my cd player. I figure that I can plug it back in and try to mess with the cd that is stuck in it and take it out. Well my ‘plug and play’ was like a 3 hour ordeal. I go to take the center piece out that holds the cd deck and there is one damn screw (should be two) that is holding that piece in. So here I go breaking down the car to work on the stereo. There is a yellow wire that is just hanging around and I have no clue where it came from. Amatsu found that is came out of one of the wiring harnesses. That was not good so he fixedededed it for me. I even checked the fuses before I put them back in for the radio and they were fine. Turns out that there is a fuse under the damn hood for the radio too. And what do you know it’s blown. So after working on trying to use the cd deck and the stock deck then putting everything back together, I find this out. Fun stuff huh? Eventually I get it all together and everything working. Man is it great to have my stereo back!

Lesson learned, do not put friends bands cd in cd deck, will not eject.

In the end friends came over early and left early, stayed up late, got trashed and humped my sexy boyfriend a lot….many times again.

Happy Spanksgiving

Well my spanksgiving was good, I kinda had two this year. I ate at Kelly’s Brandon, Aunts house and had dessert at my sister Jill’s house. Brandon’s aunts house was freaking nice! They live in the circle g ranches over in south chandler. There is this one house there that looks like a damn castle kinda. It is all grey

I got to see my nieces and brother in law too. I haven’t seen them in a long while actually. I was able to stay there for a few hours until Amatsu started getting itchy from the cat hair. I ate lots of food and we had lots of food to take home from Jill’s house plus pumpkin pie. I feel really bad that I do not see my niece or nieces for that matter as often as I should or want to. Niyanna has been staying at my moms house a lot too, it’s cute. I guess I was the same way as a kid. I never wanted to be at home. I stay home A LOT more now than I even did. I think a good majority is because I don’t see Amatsu as much as I did before so I like to just kick back and hang out with this dumb ass. Plus I haven’t had the money to be going out and less chance of getting a DUI. With my profession that I want to do a DUI will ruin me. If I have one on my record that’s it for me. I may as well just change careers. It sucks but DUI are no good anyways. I still think the limit is stupid but, eh.

So I hope every one had a great spanks giving. Good food and good times.

In the end no body came over, stayed up late, got trashed and humped my sexy boyfriend a lot….

Yeah food coma.

The rambling persists!

I rode the motorcycle today, that was nice. I made sure to put the lining in my jacket too so that I don’t freeze my ass off on the way home tonight.

So I just had an episode with my computer.

I got a call and started to type out the ticket then….wa-lah, my keyboard stops typing. I open all my other programs and tried to type in them and could not.

Luckily the students cell phone died before the counselor could conference the call. J That was weird. Checked the cords and things, they were all ok. Restarted the computer and then it was fine.

This spanks-giving is going to be a busy one for us. First, this is going to sound weird, but we starting off at Amatsu’s sisters, boyfriends mom’s house. (Told you!) Then after that we’re going to my sisters house to see My two sisters, mom, brother in law, and kids. After that we are headed to one of our long time friends Scott’s mom’s house for probably even more food.

I am going to be sooo incredibly fat this year. Oh yeah and Amatsu is driving this year cause I did last year.

Names are so weird, what if we all were numbers? Sometime I think we really are, I mean we all have SSN right? Drivers License Numbers? Employee ID’s? House Numbers? Phone Numbers? Bank account numbers? PINs?

Everything is a number.

So I’m sitting at my desk about to login from lunch and Paul asks me if I saw the article from CNN about Dick Cheney with the big X on his face. I said no, so check it out if you haven’t seen it!

http://www.nationalledger.com/artman/publish/article_27261765.shtml

And this is the greatest thing I’ve seen from Google yet!

People piss me off.

Today I go and y connect with another department that I would like to be transferred to, Applyweb. I am placed with a tech named Skeeter and he seem very knowledgeable. Come to find out that he has dealt with all the main queues so far. I actually did learn a lot of beneficial things today from the calls. Cory sits right by Skeeter so he came over to chat. He told me about his weekend and how his motorcycle chain has broke on the way back from Tucson. Basically he had the back tire changed before he left, tore a little ass on the way there, rode with an ex on the back for a little bit and rode back. The shop that changed the tire is repairing the bike now and is trying to tell Cory that the chain came off because the sprocket was worn so much that is just came off. Now I would think, one, if the sprocket was that bad wouldn’t they try to make a sale by mentioning this to him. Two, the sprocket did not break either it came off, flapped around breaking the flush mounts and part of the fairing I believe that the chain may not have been adjusted and tightened properly after the tire was replaced. The chain came off after he had pulled over cause his buddy had to adjust something on his bike. Then when they went to merge back on the freeway he was going over the big grooves on the side of the road (for road noise when drivers start to fall asleep) then all of a sudden the chain comes loose, slaps around a few times then releases on the ground, does not snap though.

Cory goes back and shortly after I hear my old room mate talking close by so I look out and kinda see her for a second. I am all about being me. I’ve had to deal with all the shit from my mom for being me, coming up with creative things, clothes, sayings, what ever…My mom could never understand why I did the things I did, acted how I do and dress like I do.

I understand that when you have closer friends you all tend to think, talk and possibly dress alike. Well talk about obsessive….she not only did the all of the above she also did this with Amatsu. Plus when I was so tired about it and bitched enough to Amatsu, he confronted her about this issue ad she denied al of it. Later admitted then it got worst, it drove me crazy. And having the respect I did I never said much about it. I mean she was even talking to my damn dogs like us! WTF?!!

The most irritating thing is that not only is she not original about anything but she is now wearing the clothes to work. Can I help it if I take pride in my creativity? I just want to be fun and original, to a point of course, and yet this ex skater/punker doesn’t get it. She was always bitching about preppy girls with me and never did the things she does or wears now. I know, I know, people change but people don't mold themselves like a carbon copy of others unless it's a rich and famous person, then ok.
Either ignorance is in play or straight up stupidity. When we went to HS and lived together she was all about punk, anarchy and boy clothes. I have always been a tomboy myself so that’s what connected up best. She was about Roxy, I was about Hot Topic (until they got very trendy). I liked skirts and socks toegther as one. I like to color corodinate my damn socks to my clothes. It's fun! I haven't worn plain white socks in about 3 years. She always used to say, you’ll never catch me in a skirt. I've got big legs and there pasty white as hell! Don’t get my wrong I still like to wear boy shorts/pants and what not but I have this problem with being indecisive. I believe that is why I take much pride and happiness on my ‘style’ per say. So day to day I will dress differently, I do not classify me as anything except a chick that loves to work on cars and like to dress up!

So basically I’m wondering, How the hell can she get away with wearing a Tripp (Hot Topic brand) skirt to work and not get written up or have a discussion about it?!! The skirts are mid thigh high. The are no where close to the knee of just above the knee for that matter. Some people (old ancient people) would consider it as a mini skirt. God that is fucking annoying! Fuuuuuuuck!

Alright, so later Skeeter asked if I had said ‘Hey’ to Rachel yet, I said no, and he told me that Rachel said I was a jerk! So I got off my ass and walked over to her desk before she beats my ass…. Just messing, but I did go visit her.

Hung out for a bit and continued to y connect. I did learn a handful today which was very good, but not nearly enough.

I need to go to MCC, like I keep blabbing about, to have my schedule planned out so that I can apply for Fin Aid. Plus I need to do it quick so that I can have it for next year….. So much shit to do and not enough time and motivation sometimes.

I just found out....

That Miss RaRa has a blog now...and she didn't even tell me. Her first post was November 1st and 19 days later I come acrossed it. I'm not mad about it just wondering why I never knew. Oh well not a big deal really. At least I know now.

So I'm at work now and I feel sooo dumb. First off I was almost late, but I was speeding so bad (Amatsu is going to kill me) I logged in with one minute to spare. I think the weekend is catching up with me today cause like I said, I feel dumb, slow, stupid. I'll get over it, I'll get past it....I hope.

Hope you all enjoy your day off, at least it's slow here so that is always, always a plus.

Hahaha I just looked at the time and its 420.
So happy 420 today folks.

Wow what a night

So last night I go out for my bday and...drama let me tell you. This is all I wrote I might update it later when I feel like it.

Well what can you do? I got locked out of your apartment, I had to ask Mexico to drive me home and leave Amatsu's car, got in a huge fight over it, Amatsu's car almost go broken into and I was fucking drrrrrunk off my ass. Amatsu found his car, left my car there and I had to wait until like 2 in the afternoon to pick it up the next day. You have no idea how scare I was knowing my car was there with no one around to watch it. My car gets babied in the garage so no one can fuck with it. Who ever locked me out sucks. That was a shitty night but I am over it. I just wish some one would of answered my calls. Even if it was I'm too drunk to answer the door OR I'm fucking and I'll be out when I'm done. Something....I would of just camped out on the porch if that was the case. I just wanted to take my contacts out then pass the fuck out. I really didn’t give a shit less where it was, just as long as I can stay warm enough to keep blood flow. Yeah like that would happen here. It doesn’t get cold enough to freeze, at least it doesn’t feel like so I don’t’ think.

My Birthday

WOW it has been a looong while since I wrote in here.
If anybody cares it is my birthday today. I turn 22 at exactly 5:00pm today.....
Yup, bye.

Shit for bricks

I left a few minutes late today than I should of and I figured I could make up for it on the freeway like normal. I leave the house and go the light and wait for the green. The light turns green, I slowly creep down the dip to make my left turn and I hear sirens. I look right and a fire truck is coming towards the intersection and is going to turn in front of me. By the time they turn the light is red for me and on coming traffic is headed right towards me. I back up slowly and hope that the light turns green for me soon. So it turns green and I make my left turn.

I get to Chandler and there more than usual traffic. The left turn lane is backed up, it never this backed up anytime I leave for work, whether I’m early, late or on time leaving. I get around that and wait for the light. I get passed the light and then a school bus is dropping off kids so we all have to stop for them. Even though the bus is on the opposite side of the street it has the stop sign thing out. If there’s no median you have to stop for them. JERKS. I get passed that, oh then slow down for the 15 mph school zone (which is always up on weekdays). I finally get on the freeway, I’m flying down at 90 and I hit some slower traffic. I get around that and make it to I-10. Then of course half way down traffic starts to slow down for what ever reason.

Then I get to work and there’s no freaking parking. I had to go to the back of the building to park. I kinda jogged in and go to login and WTF I’m late, 1 minute. 1 damn minute. I look at this as if one of these stupid things wouldn’t of happened I would have been ok, on time.

I put my things down and turn on my computer and it takes like 7minutes to boot up and ‘add my personal settings’. Damn thing. So I get in start to open all my programs and stupid shorthand won’t open. Now I just transferred a lot of my things to shorthand last night then deleted the word docs. I mean seriously all at once, it’s coming down. Now I’m in a bad mood. I was late, nothing is going right today, I want to go home, and I’m not so happy anymore.

Well later I got over that. I was emailing Rachel and she helped me out. I just needed to vent and she let me vent. ;)

Oh so this guy Mike I work with send me this email today. I made me laugh so I figured I’d share it…..

What up Sydney,

You will not believe what happened last night. Get this, I was playing my playstation and my dog walked into the living room. She looked right at me and took the biggest crap i have ever seen. I was pissed that she had the nerve to look at me while she was crapping. So i kicked her! Then i had to pick up the crap. I went and flushed it down the toilet and did not think anything of it. About an hour later i was sitting still playing playstation and i heard water splashing. I went into my bathroom and the whole damn floor had like 2 inches of water. There was enough water that when i walked into the bathroom to the toilet it covered my foot. So i called the matenanice guy right. Told him i had a lake in my apartment. He came over and looked and he almost shit himself. I could swear that i smelled it! He had me try to turn off the toilet water becasue the water was getting into the carpet and flooding the entire bedroom. After laying in the water i was able to turn it off. I was soaked man. He then said he was going to go get a pump to pump the water out. He left and my nieghbors below came up. Chris was like" Why is there a big ass bubble in my roof?". I showed him the bathroom and he was laughing his ass off. Then we heard his girlfriend scream. She was standing under the bubble looking at it and the damn thing popped from the pressure. She was soaked man. They had to bring in the truck with a built in pump to get all of the water out. It was crazy . They had to tear up the carpet and take the foam out. Then they had to leave this big Dryer in our house to dry the carpet. It was the funniest shit that has happened in a long time.
