today’s mood:

Fuck you, Life! Fuck you, Job! FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU!

i feel like a fucking cymbalta commercial

I was in my car and pulling out of my parking spot when I decided to call in to work. I pulled up a little bit, into a spot where my car wouldn’t get shit on quite so much, and then called my boss.
I need to go pick up a prescription. Last night I took [...]

boundaries

I’ve always struggled with boundary issues. In college I had a roommate that I had unhealthy boundaries with. I would become intensely upset if she missed meetings that we both attended, or if I sensed that she was becoming closer to someone other than me.
When Zer0 and I lived together in 2001, I had the [...]

i don’t like snow!

It sure is pretty and all, but I surely do hate driving in it.
I finally gave Seth his present on Saturday, and he was very pleased. We hung out Saturday night after eating Thai food. I listened to David Cross albums while he did some graphic design work for a friend. Before we fell asleep [...]

snow day

I took a snow day today, and slept in, and was duly punished by my brain. Let me tell you about the dream I had.
I dreamt that Seth and I had moved in together. All was nice and cozy, until one night I called to see when he’d be home, and somehow I knew he [...]

I need my nose smacked with a newspaper

Oy. This is my third day home from work. I felt pretty good yesterday, after my kajillion hours of sleep, but then I woke up this morning with a sore throat and intense cigarette and whisky voice. So I said fuck it and took a third sick day.
I can hear someone across the hall doing [...]

time line

11:30 p.m. Tuesday night, in bed.

awake at 4:00 p.m., long enough to eat lucky charms and watch 1/3 of an episode of what not to wear; back to bed
awake briefly [...]

people are strange

The phone rings at the Youth Services desk.
Me: Hello, Youth Services, how may I help you?
Caller: Yeah, can you tell me about your kids programs?
Me: Yes I can. How old are your children?
Caller: Oh, I don’t have kids, I just wanted to come sit in.
Me:…Um, well, you can’t really attend our programs unless you are [...]

working it out

A part of the YS office ceiling just fell in due to all the rain! Whoah.
I have started my new job, and it is like working in the belly of a unicorn that eats marshmallows and poops rainbows. People are able to talk to each other, even when annoyed with others’ behavior, and there is [...]

more tales of clumsiness

A few mornings ago I was making coffee, and I was so tired and out of it I poured the coffee beans into the coffee maker where the water goes instead of pouring them into the coffee grinder. Ten minutes ago, I went to take a drink of coffee and essentially poured it down the [...]
