It's one more and I'm free

Phoenix Comicon stuff is stressing me out, as well as a variety of other things. I have so much stuff to write out and email and just ahhh, spreadsheets. Many sighs.  I just cooked some chicken and put some dill on asparagus though - holy heck dill, you are a delightful spice.

So I used to be on this role play board (roleplaying wolves, I was 16 when I started doing this, ok) and I met a bunch of people who I talked with A LOT over the next 4 years as I stayed and wrote on this board.  I became good friends with this guy named Mitch who lives in Australia who I used to have a silly internet crush on.  He was smart in web design and Photoshop, so when I was “learning” both of these things we talked a lot.  When the site stopped functioning and we all went on our own merry ways, I still stayed loosely in contact with the group via AIM and YIM.

Nowadays the only person I keep in contact with, loosely, is Mitch, through AIM.  We pick up our friendship every so often depending on our lives.  Funny thing is, he’s actually now engaged to another girl on the same board we all used to play at.  He flew from Australia to meet her in Ohio, and the past few years they’ve just been flying back and forth to stay with each other for months at a time.  It’s actually really sweet and I’m really happy for them.  They’re getting married this summer and he’s coming to stay in the States for awhile.

I started reading all those old posts on that board about a week ago, and out of the blue the next day Mitch IMs me, asking about life and stuff, like we do when we pick up where we left off.  It was a funny coincidence and now since I’m bashing my head against the wall trying to customize Wordpress and such, it’s like we’re back to old times as I pick his brain for coding info.  

Thanks for the friend, internet.  You cool.

Somehow we always mean to get stuff done, and end up falling asleep.  

My sister and I did end up going to the Unite Against the War on Women rally thing downtown though, and while it was nice, didn’t do anything more than tell me what I already knew.  I’m already angry.  We did, however, have delicious mimosas afterward.  Mimosaaaaaaas.

Now I’m taking Yoshi out.  It’s actually not too hot outside right now.  Miracle of miracles.

People need to mind their own business.

can we keep going on tour?  Okay?  Ok.

Holy mother of god, this lady I work with came to ask me if I wanted to take her birthday cake home since she didn’t want it, and I was listening to my music and jamming out so I feel this breath on my arm so I freeze and turn around and she’s SUPER CLOSE to my face and STARING at me and I swear I almost had a heart attack, I was that startled, and then I was like “oh my GOD” and took my headphones out and laughed nervously and after that it was just really awkward.

asdfasdfasfsdf just kill me.

The house flooded on Friday night. The second flood I’ve come home to in less than a year. Cool. The house is all tile though, the walls are adobe, and no major electronics were hurt. Best possible scenario. We came back today and nothing smells and there’s no water damage to the walls. That’s different.

My brother has a warrant for unpaid fines and I think I convinced him to turn himself in. I don’t want him in jail, but he can’t get a job with this over his head. If he takes care of this now he can get it over with and come live in Phoenix. It’s the best possible scenario.

I feel sad, so we ordered Chinese food and I’m finally going to start Battlestar Galatica. Yoshi’s sleeping right by me and I’m warm. So it will be okay.

Ohemgee, my phone is working.  Rachel Maddow and Amy Goodman, I missed you.

I dropped my phone behind the washer yesterday.  I still haven’t gotten it out, so I am without a phone right now. It freezes all the time and I can’t listen to my podcasts on it, so what’s the point of even having it with me?

I am out of hot sauce.

Will the pain never end?

Man, I went to court this morning, cleaned a little, returned some voicemails for PCC, answered emails for PCC, and am taking Yoshi to the dog park for a little while.

All this productivity brought to you by, I called out because I didn’t get a day off I requested off in January and I’m being punished by being suspended today and being productive and not being at the hellhole known as my work.

This is a very harsh punishment, obvs.

- I went to the dog park on Sunday and hurt my lower back somehow.  And now it hurts to move suddenly and my left sometimes goes weak when I’m walking.  Annoying.

- I lost my phone two weeks ago and after my boyfriend bought me a new phone that doesn’t work in the US (haha..ha), and the insurance company sending me two phones with no batteries, I finally have a replacement phone with a battery, but now it keeps freezing up and sometimes the service doesn’t work.  Motherfucker.

- I haven’t gotten Danny anything for his birthday and it’s in two days.  :(  I am a bad, bad girlfriend.

- I had a dream and my friend that’s in prison right now was in it, and it was a happy dream, so when I woke up it was sobering and very sad.

Other than that, I’m off tomorrow, Friday should be an easy night, possiblyyyy Florida(????), got the hotel booked for Thursday night at the Renaissance for PCC with the discount, there will be food this weekend because of Zombie Jesus Day, and I start part time next week, which means this weekend is my first 3 day weekend of many to come.  Holla.

Convention over. I think I made a fool out of myself a few hundred times, but that happens every one, so I should get over it.

I got written up and suspended for calling out Friday (even though I requested it off in January, but that’s complicated and anyway) to be there.  I’m suspended on Danny’s birthday though, so joke’s on you work, joke’s on you. 

I start part time in two weeks.  I’m excited to have my life back.
