today:
- started drinking at 11 with sushi as breakfast.
- the first gay i talked to asked me why we were gonna be bffs. i told him it's because i had a tattoo of illinois on my body. then he showed me his. josh if you ever read this, you get the gold star of the day.
- ran into carole at the parade, my favorite bartender.
- flashed my tattoo inappropriately for beads. like tits on mardi gras.
- crazy surplus of beads, chapstick, stickers, condoms, beer bottle openers.
- "will show body for glitter sunscreenz and slap braceletz"
- forgetting how to text in sentences and/or fucking up spelling royally.
- chicago city diner, carly and matt!
- joy yees: tofu and shrimp on rice. raspberry mango bubble tea.
- driving to first midwest bank amp.
- went from general parking (really shitty and far) to employee parking (better) to parking right up front with two small rows of cars. (door 20 ft away.) and getting away with it.
- watch the sky. spinning. i don't really need to explain that one do i?
- went from lawn seats (jacks being ant sized and or invis) to a section in the 200's (still bad) to a section in the 100s (way better.) running into cal and then being in the box area (thank god.)
i think i've recovered from being so beeritated yesterday. i think good friends, gays, food, sun, and jacks mannequin just does that. thanks!

I saw mae with a bunch of friends and it was just like how it used to be; fun, sun, laughs, beer, excitement.
I worked a double today and definitely wanted to shoot several people.
I was pulled over for a random 'car check' by the warrenville cops; for those 30 seconds i thought my life would be over even though i had done nothig wrong.
I'm still thinking, "what the fuck town does random inspections at 1030pm on a friday night?; a town that is out to get some major $ from screw ups."
The pools open up this weekend and i am more than excited to have a healthy summer glow.
A server at work asked me if i liked speedos or banana hammocks. (answer:NO)
I am working up more motivation to finally apply to places again.
I haven't seen my ex roommate atur in forever and tomorrow she's hosting a nice ol' bbq.
Carly and I are gonna drink beer and spoon and you're all jealous.
I have accumulated so much debt that i would have to be in constant hibernaysh for the next year... not gonna happen.
okgoodnight.

I've had a ridiculous and great week, but I think all the partying has now concluded with me having a sore throat and stuffy nose. I hope I wake up tomorrow refreshed and not sick!

| snow is scary. |
[17 Dec 2008|01:05am] |

so today even before the snow my car was sliding around on black ice. after work i had about 3 inches of snow on top of my car and getting home was frightening.
tonight jon ims me and asks "do you remember that one time we got into that car accident?"
yes, that was december 2004, i was going to milwaukee to see limbeck and motion city soundtrack... then halfway through the drive there was freezing rain....we did 5 360's into a ditch and a fence. we were so lucky to not have a scratch on us, even though my car got banged up pretty badly.
anyways, jon just told me he and his brother were driving home in the durango and hit a river guard rail and spun out onto the other side of traffic. good thing no one's hurt, but the car is pretty fucked up.
simply said: driving in this weather scares the hell out of me.
edit: holy shit december 2004. i was just done with my first semester in college... and things were so different then. oh how times change.

- there are four school days left. all four require a test, a paper, a presentation, or a combination of the three.
- there's been a lot of drama with our house in plainfield. my parents want to move back to schaumburg, but all of this is based on their job situation within the next few months and if we can actually sell the house. i am terrified.
- speaking of schaumburg, i was there on monday with julie and that town just looks so different every time i see it. i didn't recognize the corner of irving park and barrington since so many things have been built since the last time i was there.
- i am working 12 hours on black friday. then it will be a BLACKoutFRIDAY.
- yesterday i stopped by rossi's to rage with jess and her co-workers. jenny kept referring to me as 'asian girl' and one drink turned into six. and even though i spilled an entire long island on jess's lap, i think she forgave me ;).
- brad and i had hilarious conversation about uic. turns out if we were the same age, he would've ended up being my neighbor at the first dorm i lived in. except he's super old. ;)
- jess and i have great times.
- ian's has this special pizza this week.... THANKSGIVING SPECIAL. there's ham, stuffing, and MASHED POTATOES on it. i will never eat better pizza again.
- while brad and i were waiting on jess, i saw cirone at ians. i always run into him so randomly! (btw, lets hang some time!)
- i really hope i did not contract pink eye.
- i'm seeing death cab and jacks mannequin. TOGETHER. next week. so excited!
sorry, but i loved the expression you have on your face, jess.
