Monday I started a new job. I now work at a daycare. I have 3 one year olds. I am used to working at a sit down job at a bank so needless to say, by the end of the day I was wore out. The rest of the week went the same way. I went to work and chased kids... Read More
oni_no_kukan and I went to kitsune24 SG party. We had a great time, it was fun meeting other members. We had about an hour and a half drive, but it was worth it.
I don't have anything planned today. Probably the usual, oni_no_kukan and I will just sit around watching movies and pass out early tonight cause we have to go back to work tomorrow.... Read More
I am no longer employed with the hell hole aka...the bank! My last day was yesterday. Monday I start my new job....at a daycare....working with little rugrats. It's a hell of alot better than working with bitchy customers. Plus I already know everyone.
The weekend was great. Friday was my BF's birthday so we both took a vacation day for it. I took him out that night to Siki to eat sushi....yumm....I didnt think I'd like it but he made me try it and it's good stuff. We went to the movies to see Sin City again after dinner.
Saturday night we went to Cloud 9 to celebrate... Read More
I decided not to go to work today. I made an appointment with the eye doctor to go get my eyes checked and get new glasses. I dont want to go, I hate doctors. Last week I gave a two week notice at work. I finally got the nerve up to quit. So now I'm taking a pretty big pay cut to go work back... Read More
I am off work today. Yay for vacation days. It was the week from hell. I hate my job, actually I hate my supervisor, she's a bitch. I like what I do, but she makes it difficult to be at work. I turned in an application for a better position with a different company, which I thought was promising, but I'm disappointed cause I haven't... Read More
I am so tired right now. The week was boring. I worked half a day today, and I get tomorrow off and then its back to work Monday.
Thursday.....thats about as far back that I can remember right now. Nick and I decided to go out to eat and have a few drinks. We were going to Hooters to eat. My friend Cara works there,... Read More
Over-acted, over-written and just plain schmultzy!
Everyone was going for that Oscar they're just never gonna get!
But they gave us free T-shirts at work that said,
"Property of Ladder 49" with one of those firemen logos on the front... Pretty pathetic and I only wear it when I do laundry, wash my car (which is once a year), or engage in messy sexual activities (which is never...!)
Well, I said it before and I'll say it again... you make your own fun!
Are you coming out to St. Louis for the Motley Crue show august 9th!!!!!!!
It's gonna be goodtimes, man!
Good times!
And hopefully St. Louis will get a damn Aerosmith date this year!!!!!!
Ah, well.
Enough blathering.
Have fun doing whatever it is you do in Pleasant Hill and always know you're a fuckin' rock star!
The weekend was great. Friday night did consisted of going to Walmart & Blockbuster, but it was good. We got home Friday and started watching Napolean Dynamite, then started falling asleep so I didn't get to finish it. Saturday night Nick and I went and played pool at Sidepockets. I won a few games, but lost more than I won. It was relaxing for both... Read More
I'm getting ready to go out for the night. What? I'm not sure yet, I guess we'll figuire it out when we leave. Probably the same as every other weekend, movies, Blockbuster, Target, & Wal-Mart. It's not much but it's entertaining.
I've often meditated on the pointlessness of viewing, objectivly, one's nightly and weekend routines and judging them as,
"lame" or "not much" or "pathetic."
By what criteria are we measuring these things and who sets these bullshit standards?
Granted, I do find myself rather depressed when I visit friends in rural areas and their pass times include driving around Pittsfield, Illinois in a circle in their cars, looking for farm animals to torture.
However, when my friends and I go out on weekends we usually go to the movies, to a bar, out to eat some place we've never been before.
Sometimes we shake it up with a blues/jazz club, a comedy show (at the Funnybone or Comedy Forum), or a concert.
But usually it is the same old same old.
Who's to say that an evening of Blockbuster rentals "isn't much?"
You're entertained.
If that is what makes you content, so be it.
My standards for a typically productiive evening include reading, throwing in a movie (usually a horror movie), writing (fiction, NOT on the Internet, though sometimes I splurge, until I can't look at my computer anymore), listening to music, talking on the phone with out-of-state friends and usually eating dinner in...
The point is: I've always felt that whatever you consider a productive and lively evening is, by all means, what makes you happy and therefore should be subjected to other people's high falutin, pretentious standards.
Your Friday night sounds awesome to me!!!!!!!
(except for the Wal-Mart, thing. I hate them for what they do to small businesses in small towns... other than that, tho, it's all good!).
