I made up a story, like I have many a time, and it's caused a bit of a ripple in the water of things.

This journal is viewed by many people and is a great place for me to write different stories. If I choose to pick my life as the backdrop for my stories who'll be the wiser?

So I'll say this, not all...

Holy lady luck and all that is good and lucky!

Got your attention? Cool. Time to Tarantino this entry.

Went to work today. Didn't expect it to be anything wonderful. Normal routine is to ask where one is needed, either on a reg or out on the 'floor' restocking stuff.

I clocked in at 5pm and was told to work the floor till 6:30pm then come back. So 6:12 rolls around and I'm getting bored stocking the frozen foods so I went up to see if I could get on a register.

Now when you get a new register it's supposed to have $192.50 in it in cash and change. $50 in tens, $100 in fives, $25 in ones, and $17.50 in various change.

You then go on to count all this to make sure it's right. No one bothers counting the coins because you can pretty much tell at a glance if it's right or not, more or less.

Well in my drawer tonight I had $50 in tens, ok, good. I then counted my fives, yep $100, all's well there. Now times to count the 20's... wait... wtf... These are supposed to be ones, but... Holy lady luck and all that is good and lucky! I have 25 twenty dollar bills where my ones are suppused to be!!! For one second I thought; 'oh gosh, what doofus did this? Better get my ones. Wait... wait just one second. These are supposed to be ones and as far as anyone and everyone knows these ARE ones. This, is just about the best day I've ever had.'

I went on then to run my reg as normal for a few min. Then put two of those 20's into my drawer, took out a fiver and one of the 20's. Called over the manager on duty, asked for 25 more ones stating "some lady wanted all my ones, hahahaha." Got my ones, took out $15. And called it a day, my drawer was balenced and I was $475 richer.

My day has been fucking awesome, and tomorrow being one of my days off it just keeps getting better. Hurray for human error!!!!!



Completely and totally hilarious.

Every now and then my register gets messed up. Like 3 days before Christmas -- for example -- when I was debating between letting my phone get turned off or buying my friend the belt buckle she'd had her eye on for months, and some how two crisp 100$ bills got mistakenly placed in with my bundle of 1$'s. Know what I did? Noted it on my reg. sheet and notified a supervisor.

Ethics, dude. You should look into them. In the meantime, count yourself lucky your employers are forgiving.

I was raised protestant Christian. Thought it was really the only way to live and that all the rest of the 'unbelievers' would go to 'hell.'

That was untill I was about 14, then I started to question a lot.

Then my parents got divorced. My mom, after each fight her and my dad would have, would tell me how that would never happen. How...

Thanks. I know how to do .zip files though. The only thing is they are still to big to email and I can't break them down anymore because they don't want that many emails. I'm going to try yousendit.com like one of the SG's suggested. But thanks anyway...

'Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici'

'Vita' - "Life." 'Mors' - "Death."

Why am I posting things in Latin and giving the deffinition? Honestly, I have no idea. I think Latin is cool. I wanted to learn it, hell, I still do. But I only know one person that could teach me and... Well,...

Saw 'V' For Vendetta with my buddy Alan. That was really a good movie. I was surprised. Even teared up a bit.

Some movies just get me, some parts just do that.

No one said what they think, "can't be with the one you love, then love the one you're with," means. Anyone?

I'm downloading the song as we speak. Always did like Massive Attack . . .

And yeah, my avatar is from Tsutomu Nihei's Snikt!. Not the best storyline of wolverine's but certainly one of my favorite visuals of recent comic history.

Well this is new. Me sick. I don't get sick, damn it!

So, what do you all think this means?

"Can't be with the one you love, then love the one you're with."

Let me know what you think. If you know what's from you get big cool points too. But I'm just curious what everyone's take on it is.


Walked home from work tonight....

What doesn't help is emotional baggage! frown

Especially back-stabbery and whatnot!
jojo_suicide:

See... biggrin ...there's a reason for good friends and good times! I had a really bad evening once and I didn't even want to think about going out to a bar...but I got talked into it...ran into a few good friends there and the rest of the night was so much fun, I was completely over the unhappy incident within a couple of hours. And I didn't even get completely trashed!

Whether history repeats itself or not, well...no way of knowing in advance. But sometimes things have a way of going in a whole new direction and turning out even better than the time before, if you know what I mean. Hopefully everything will turn out great for you! kiss smile

Every night is heaven and each morning is hell.

I dream about us each time I fall to sleep and it's perfection. I see myself as I should have been. How I was too few times. How I should have treated her. It's bliss. It's so real too, some dreams you can tell are dreams but not these. I wake up convinced.

When I wake...

I really hate knowing the girl i still love is in somebody else's arms. So i know how you feel mate...You just gotta try and get up on day and say to yourself "This is it, i'm gonna start anew, and maybe try to find someone else."

I hope everything gets better soon.
vervain______:
try not to beat yourself up. i know it is hard. i can kick my own ass better than anyone else can. people make mistakes. it happens. it doesn't seem like it, but someday you will wake up and realize you feel different. maybe a little better than yesterday. it will get better.

I biked to and from work. About 5-6 miles in all, 20 minutes each way give or take. Not bad.

On my ride I got to thinking. What I realized was the biggest failure on my part of the relationship was my mindset.

When you first start dating or seeing someone that you have an interest in you want to impress them. You go out...

Thanks for the compliments on the lighting and photography on LeMorta's set.
As far as the lightening bolts go, LeMorta is a big fan of Marilyn Manson, so when she approached me with the idea to shoot for the set , she said she wanted to pay tribute to Marilyn by appearing as one of the member's of Manson's Military.
A few notes on the lighting-
I surrounded her with those metallic space blankets by hanging a bunch of them on either side of her and even behind the camera and had my lights in between the space blankets. I wanted to flood the area with light so that I could use a high number F-stop, AND a fast shutter speed because LeMorta is a great model and "Self-Poser" so she goes from one great pose to another, and sometimes it's hard to keep up with her.
Last but not least - I read your journal entry, and I can relate but if you will ltake some advice from a guy who's been married to his first and only wife for soon to be 24 years, think about this... Are you surrounding yourself with the people you want to be with in 10. 15, 20 years?
If not, you may want to re-think who you are choosing with friends.
Afterall, isn't the kind of woman and friend, that you want to keep forever, worth your respect, kindness, generousity and undying devotion?
When you leave this earth, what do you want to look back at and say that you have changed for the better?
Just my 2 cents worth. smile
Best wishes!
omeganightmare:
That just made a whole lot of sense to me. Its all very true.

Good luck with everything, hang in there it will be ok.

(Note: certain names have been changed because... I dunno. I'm weird and paranoid like that.)

Well so much for my big plans of a long bike ride. I woke up at 9am and I heard rain so I thought 'screw that.' And went back to sleep.

Woke back up at noon and got up. Cleaned up my room a bit (a lot.) Then I went...

Thanks. Of course most of the credit goes to the artist.

Dude that beanie rocks my box... I want it so fucking bad... But apparently Dr. Steel must confirm purchases before he manufactures anything on his site except his music, so we're kinda screwed for now.

Once his music really takes off he should get some ligit merch! love

A lot of people have these plans to take over the world, or X amount of steps on their way to world domination.

My plan? Let them. Go right on a head, own the whole world. I dont care. You're going to need help running this place though, a lot of help. Guess where I come in? Oooh yeah. I'm going to help.

Who do...

Why do I get the feeling you'd be one of those people who manage a small neighborhood store while simultaneously being behind the assassination of some fascist dictator thousands of miles away? wink
