| August 8! |
[Jun. 21st, 2006|10:27 pm] |
Tuesday, August 8 is the date I leave for Honolulu. Less than seven weeks now, and they go by so fast! Every passing day I think more about how I'm going to miss my mom, but I also get more excited, too. I just need to curb my little spending problem...
Work's been chill lately, same with home. I usually have the apartment to myself in the evenings which is relaxing to say the least, and productive. Like tonight I cleaned up a little, made a nice dinner and am almost finished reading the book I'm working on. I've also been trying to eat healthy again-- one last final attempt-- so far, so good. The perfect weather also has a lot to do with this contentment. |

live in Hawaii
live in Mexico
go fishing
make and sell desserts
see San Francisco
see Japan, Italy, India
learn at least two other languages
be in the Peace Corps
grow my hair out long again
teach something I'm good at

it's been slow-going..... that's everything minus work which is frantic.... too bad I just want to get out of here and move someplace warm i.e. Tampa or SoCal or Mexico. If anyone wants in, tell me because I'm dead serious. Nothing's keeping me here except for my lack of a partner in crime..... c'mon people let's go! |

Well let me just say... things have been falling into place lately. I never realized how unhappy I was until after the fact, and now that things are working out I am happier than I have been in a few months now. Life has a way of being awesome when you least expect it....... |

So yesterday was my birthday and I got pretty shitty.. Kim and Megan got me the cutest little blue flower ring and a pink bracelet like it.. Mark got me this hot vintage tee and I'm mad cause I forgot to save the wrapping and it was really cute.. I don't remember a whole lot from last night, in fact I wonder where my car is.. hmm.. (beard stroke). Hopefully it didn't get ticketed. I should treat myself to pancakes or something. |

Well. Allow me to be completely vague while I attempt to anonymously vent.
So things have been so shitty as of late that it seems I have surpassed the worst and the only place you can go from the bottom is up so... things don't seem so shitty anymore. It's been happening for so long that I finally grew accustomed and have just learned that this is the way things are and things will be and fuck changing the past, just build a better future. So fuck anything or anyone holding me back, all I'm trying to do is be happy. So I'm gonna do it. And ignore you.
Whatever!
The positive:
I have my puppy
and a few good friends who care
and my car plays music now
...so... I'm good. Thanks |

I don't know why I am thinking about Valentine's day right now, but I am. And I'm thinking about how it has never, EVER failed to depress me. Ew. |

Wow, it has been forever since my last update. I suppose the most important thing to mention is my new life plan. Which includes
1)saving $5000
2)going to culinary school in the fall
3)relocating in San Francisco where I will become a rich family's personal chef and housekeeper.
Work's okay, Scarborough is still way out of my way, and I think I'm getting a hamster. I miss being healthy. The food I have eaten lately makes me want to barf thinking about it. |

So what I really want is to meet someone new. Someone who makes me feel excited all over again. I want the innocence of a new relationship where all I have to figure out is if he likes me. I want to bore my friends with the details of all the little things he does that make me like him even more. I have a plan for this. It involves haunting college campuses even though I'm not a college student and looking cute and approachable with a book or a dog or something, even if I have to borrow the dog.
Good news! Karen, Angie and I found a place. It's not intown, but it's a fucking deal and it's GORGEOUS. It's a cottagelike apartment that our coworker Rosemary owns and is renting out during the off season. It's right on Pine Point beach in Scarborough. It's fully furnished and all utilities are included- the only thing we will have to pay for is cable and internet. There's a screened in porch, eat in kitchen, washer/dryer, and GRAND STAIRCASE! It's so great, I had to bake Rosemary something. So I made a pie tonight and it's fucking beautiful. Tasty too.
Still need to find another job, but not at Soffrito's due to asshole manager. I might try Fuji's and Three Dollar Dewey's, maybe Portland Pie Company? |

Always the last one to bed.
Always the first one up.
A luscious mix of words and tricks, or so say the Shins. And I agree. |

This morning I couldn't sleep, so I walked and ran the boulevard. I've never been a runner, and I made myself run more than last time, and I feel really good about it. It was the perfect temperature out, too.
I decided I need a second job. I can make rent and the phone bill and my car insurance, but I don't have a lot of money left over for me, and you know I love to shop. And eat. And drink... so before I go into Akari this morning I'm going to apply at some restaurants downtown as a waitress/bartender. Tips would be sweet.
The only problem now is that Karen and I are still looking for an apartment. Ideally we would like to live with a few roommates for cheaper rent, but I don't think Travis and Kristin are still interested. I found a gorgeous 4-bedroom, hardwood floors, high ceilings, eat in kitchen, DISHWASHER... I fell in love with it. But so far we only have three people. If anyone wants in, let me know asap. |

| WARPED TOUR |

So I will give you the full story.
After a day of errands including Mexicali Blues, Coldstone, and groceries, Karen and I packed our shit and got ready to leave for Northampton, Mass for the Warped Tour. Before we left we got our downstairs neighbor Steve to get us some weed and we rolled us four joints, we decorated a lighter with nail polish, and took off.
It was pouring rain and for some reason the traffic on I-95 was ridiculous. Finally we got to a place called... well, actually I don't remember the name of the town but it was the home of volleyball. We got super confused and creeped out and stopped at a 7-11 for directions to the fairgrounds. Apparently it was right around the corner. So we drive to the fairgrounds to scope out the parking situation, ok we will not be parking as the parking lot is miniscule. We decided to find a hotel and just walk there the next morning. Best Western had no vacancy, and we wanted a hotel we could leav eour car at and walk from to the fairgrounds... so we chose the ritzy Northampton Inn at $200/night. We proceeded to drop off our luggage, get high in the karenmobile, and eat tons of junk food before watching Spiderman 2 and passing out for the night.
So the next morning we woke up late, busted ass, and drank 40 oz. of wine. Walked to the fairgrounds. Made up a story and cut 300 people in line AND smoked a joint. Right there. Surprisingly no one wanted in. The security guard let Karen in with 3 joints and whispered, "don't get caught!" We got in and it was muddy and nasty as hell. We saw Alex play and I talked to his mom. We hung out for a little while (and of course, smoked a joint). I met the other guitarist Kory. We wandered around forever, left and took a nap in a cemetary. Re entered, saw Jen Jen, Rockland Jen, and Nick Bilotta. Small world! We saw Reggie and ASD. Then I got an ice cream cone and Karen and I decided that it was time to leave. So we basically paid a fortune to see two Maine bands... haha, oh well, it was worth it.
On the way home, we took a short detour through Vermont ("Karen, I think we're going to Canada"). After asking like four gas stations how to get back to Maine, we stopped at a Panera Bread in Nashua and then hopped on I-95. Beautiful. I have never been so happy to get back to our tiny apartment! We woke up perfectly refreshed and walked the boulevard. |

-I love my job. Adore it.
-I just got my eyebrows waxed. I think they are my new favorite part of my body
-Checked out a cute apartment a few days ago, and I really really really really really hope we can get it
-For some reason my hair looks adorable today. I wish I had a hot date or something.
-Made out a new budget at work which involves a shopping spree at the end of every month
-New resolution: eat more vegetables and less bread. More fruit, less dairy.
And now, a grocery list
Roasted almonds
green vegetables
soymilk
tomatoes
bell peppers
mushrooms
yellow apples
nectarines
some sort of interesting cheese
fake meat
lettuce |

I knew nothing was going to happen, I knew it awhile ago. But. I'm a pisces. Whattya gonna do? It takes forever for me to move on, to let go. Soon I will let go.
For now, smashed potatoes with Karen will keep a smile on my face. A nice paycheck won't hurt. Someone who cares... I can wait for. |
