Like probably everyone else on the planet, I thought the Dark Knight was amazing. Ledger owned the Joker and made him into the perfect, erratic, creepy, hilarious psychopath he should be.

Everyone should see it on IMAX.

I'm leaving the internet for now, until after I see the Dark Knight. I don't trust people.

Going a little insane. I'm getting the iPhone as my old phone is essentially dead. My little brother has one so my dad wants me to put my phone plan under a family plan so it'll cost less for me to pay for the monthly shit. The annoying part about this is that now I can't go buy the phone without my dad because he needs to have the info to switch my brother's plan.

So essentially I have to wait until next Saturday. I honestly doubt I'm going to end up getting the phone which is fucking frustrating to me because I can get it myself. Are they even getting in phones on Saturdays? *sigh*

Anyway... I'll be back Friday after I see TDK at 3am.

Sooo I got semi-bailed on tonight. I am home and will be bored. Feel free to IM me I suppose:

AIM = black cat book

I think I'm just going to be reading and watching some tv.

Excited for The Dark Knight. I don't think I'll be online much if at all next week.

P.S. I need to get my boyfriend gifts for his birthday. He reads a lot of comic books and is a major film aficionado.

Restless today but nonetheless a bit tired.

I get paid Friday. I'm thinking about getting a To Kill A Mockingbird quote tattooed on me. Maybe I'll just save 100 from this paycheck and 100 from the next. How much do script tattoos usually cost? (Not huge, like 1/2 in letters?) [Quote: "It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do."]

A bit frustrated... I asked my boss last week to take off the 18th if it was okay with the other cashier. He said yes. The other cashier just got back from a 10-day vacation on Monday. I haven't had time off yet. He said he was going to leave Friday to do some family thing but I have priority so he'd see what he could do.

He hasn't figured it out yet. Thursday I am going to the Dark Knight and seeing it Friday at 3am. I won't be out until 5:40ish and I'd have to work at 6:30. I don't see that being possible as I'd probably pass the fuck out.

So... He better "figure it out" because it's not really fair to me as I spent 30 on tickets and it isn't movable.

I'm feeling on and off depressed which I think is my birth control, in part. (Sorry if you didn't wanna hear that, boys.) Sooo... That means either going off the pill or trying a new one. And I'd really rather not go through the whole "trying new pills and going crazy or gaining weight" thing.

I honestly, truly believe that the stereotype of women not wanting sex comes from women going on birth control. Same with the women being crazy thing. Birth control fucks with your brain and your hormones. I dislike it.

Fourth of July was alright for me. Did what I always do, go to the fireworks show in a neighboring town.

I bought my boy Interactive Wall*E just because. Hopefully he likes it.

With school approaching I'm worrying about meeting people again since I failed to do so very well last year.

How many of you had a hard time making friends? Besides going to clubs, what helped?

I'm gonna try to meet people in classes too but I've heard from a lot of girls that it's hard to make good friends at Loyola. I'm not sure why. It just is.

I really don't know how to feel anymore. Relationships are frustrating sometimes because you have to depend so much on the honesty of the other person. I desperately want to believe things but when lies are apparently told to other people and kept hidden from yourself it's confusing.

I also feel ugly now. Whee.

On a lighter note, Wizard yesterday was enjoyable. I only spent 60 dollars and that includes buying two slices of pizza and a soda for 12 dollars.

I bought:

Bomb Queen vol 1
100 Bullets vol 1
Arkham Asylum
Transmetropolitan vol 1
The Walking Dead vol 1
Thessaly issues 1-4

Went to the Bendis panel. Wanted to stay for the animated Dark Knight thing but I was too tired. All in all we were there from 10:30am to 6:30pm.

Bit pissed. Got to Wizard at like 5:45. Was told I couldn't get in because it closed at 6. For one, that was not made clear enough. Also, what if I wanted to go to the other Friday events?

Whatever, though. Going early tomorrow.

Saw "Wall*E" instead. Was adorable and I cried.

Made about 400 dollars (got my check today). Close to 100 was taken out for taxes, boo.

Quite tired. Today was nice. Bought strawberries at a farmer's market on the way to work.

Finished reading La Perdida, which I enjoyed. On to reading Devil in the White City, which I've wanted to read for a long time.

Boyfriend came to my work during my lunch break so we ate together. Made the day go by faster.

Came home and was tired but went to Steak and Shake with friends and ended up also going to Tropical Sno and the mall an such. It was enjoyable.

After tomorrow I gotta wake up at 4:40 for work. Not fun.

But I'm going to Wizard Friday and Saturday. Seeing Wall*E and my godmother Saturday. And possibly going to the beach Sunday.

I'm sad I didn't get to dress up for Wizard this year but hopefully next year I'll have a bigger paycheck on hand (for working more than 3 days) when the time comes to buy a costume.
