JOURNAL:
2004 was a blast.. this year is getting even better.
so last week, on thursday night, I was fired. The next day I walked into the .RAINBOW Bar & Grill on sunset and was hired. I have worked there three days in a row. only trained one day, the staff seems to like me, the manager says I am a strong server - nice. and this place just happens to have legendary hollywood rockstars come in... and other people like Dave Navarro and Steven Tyler. if I prove myself they might start me on nights in a few weeks they say - but it might be sooner.... fuck yeah! oh and with a whole lot less people but now I can serve alcohol, I made $70 yesterday in tips and was bored! get to play my own music when I open... fuck yeah, put in BAD RELIGION's last cd to start the morning - nothing like screaming "let them eat war" at 11 am in an empty but open hollywood relic like that place. I love it.
I only have three scheduled days right now... I made it really clear I want to work more. told them today that if there is the possibility of more hours then cool but if not, I have to get another job. they nodded. I am not mentioning it again... the night crew I hear is really terrible though so I have a good idea that I could be thrown into the mix and be okay there. I just need to get back on top of the money game... I owe someone that was very dear to me a couple bills and I want to pay him as soon as I can... I had thought I would have been past it by now...
my personal life has been on hold as well... I have been sick lately, got this sexy rasp going and the cough occasionally... the cold open restaurant does not help... it is cold all the day and I rarely get above 65 on the skin... so that is not helping at all.. I can wear whatever I want though so I am really excited - everyone loves my tattoo and I am really seriously thinking about getting the next one if the money game gets going again.... but not before. I could have it here - and probably get a discount from one the clients! the new one is another japanese thing... for the inside of my elbow right at the top of the forearm on the left side. it is going to really fucking hurt... I also want the nipples done so anyone have a friend that would do them for free or really cheap but well? I am trying okay....
the brown hair... I love it. I am going to do it again this time (met a new hairdresser who works across the street from the restaurant who will do it for $120) but there are going to be some burgandy that will turn light highlights on the top since it lightened up so much but still have the chestnut mahogany color that I have now. the blonde natural just makes it difficult... who woulda thought? but that is in another month - must take care of business...
thinking of checking out the area again for jobs today... I need a weekend one. I wish I could learn how to bartend... that would pay well on the weekend. know anyone who could teach me? really... not kidding. hot bartending female... here I come.
practically moved into the new house - almost went broke doing it... the celly is off right now as well... will have to wait until I work on monday. I need the break anyway, I hate the people who call sometimes - I am lying, I love when people call but I never know what to say. I like one on one time. but we are discussing a weekly dinner party or biweekly night of the week where we cook and invite people over... they bring wine, we cook and life is good on a tuesday! or something... I like the idea, very social for me. we have a cute house for it. I owe them $200 for the rent still... fuck. will be paid soon... luckily I went to the grocery store already and stocked up a bit so I do not have to worry about that.
my roomie, the wife - she is unemployed as well but she is starting her own clothing company with a friend.... she can do it - I told her I could wear them at work at the RAINBOW and pimp her style... I could pimp my style too actually. anyone want to design some clothing with me? I have ideas, just need to get it on paper and made into reality.... anyone?
I also need those demos from people... anyone with a rock/indie band anywhere! send them to me... email me through here for the address... I am now moved into Silverlake near Hollywood... and I work on the Sunset Strip... fuck yeah..
I LOVE L.A. 
much love to my peeps leaving the comments.
"keep it coming y'all
dance til you can't dance no more"
name the movie that used these lyrics in the much for the opening credits (hint, there are cheerleaders dancing to it).
guess all you want...
jack sparrow, watch me survive
***************************************************
I just realized that it has been awhile since the lovelife has appreared here. there is an easy and quick rundown for that if you like...
my Prince Charming has been around again. I love to spend the time.. he makes me nervous and also makes me giddy. the last time I saw him nearly two weeks ago he and I kissed so much and he told me how much he liked kissing me - while holding me close and sharing an intimate little early dinner at a greek place in Malibu. I love to spend time with him... I really do. even when I spill semi-hot tea on his lap before we leave the place... yeah, I am such a klutz. but i think I might - you know.... if he allows me to.
the ex is surprising me. i saw him the night after Prince Charming and we hung out... spend the night with him cuddled up to me like a young boy - comforted. it felt right with him, since we were so much to each other it was almost (but not quite on both sides) platonic. I tried to get him out of bed the next day... he sleeps quite a bit and works way too fucking hard... and he slept beyond 11 am so I left. I had to, I had things to do and I wished I had done them with him. I left him a note expressing this and he has since taken many steps to straighten up his life - as he put it, I would not settle for less than I expect in someone I want to love eternally. I cried hearing those words from him and all the steps he really IS taking to get his act together. He is putting up a little bit of a fight for me.... I am actually impressed.
so it puts me between a rock and a hard place. I have the one coming back from the badlands and the one just stepping up a little more for more of me. WTF? oh well, I could have no one and then just be a workaholic.
naw, I can be a workaholic anyway... "fuck an a".
mahalo lovers,

PS - thank you kizmet for the new profile pic.
Trying to add a group called "Sunset Social" to bring more people in the LA area together... anyone with me? I really want to have more social events in the Silverlake/Echo Park/East Hollywood/Hollywood area... I love artist and I love to bring eccentric social people together... I hope they approve it.. I am just not sure how to maintain the group. If someone clues me in, I will so do it though! Let me know SG Staff! Thanks for giving me a place to just BE!!!!
