it's been a ridiculously long time... but i was looking at my livejournal, and i realized my last update was about ruby's window not rolling up after i rolled it down... in the middle of december about 2 years ago.

now i have dori. and my sister has moved. and my job is still the same. and i live with april instead of ben. all new and different things.

might keep up with this, but unfortunately probably not. working 60 hours a week really isn't condusive to keeping this thing up.

peace out peeps.

I leave for Corvallis in less than 12 hours. So excited.

Mon, 20 Feb 2006 23:07:22 GMT

i have had the 2 best weekends in a very long time. i love bellingham. might be spending a lot more time there in the upcoming months.

Mon, 12 Dec 2005 18:39:45 GMT

Friday I did a really stupid thing. I rolled my window down so that I could see to drive acrossed a busy street, and it got stuck there. So I spent the whole weekend driving around with my window stuck down... It's taped closed now, but who knows how long that'll last, and Mr. J might not be able to fix it until closer to Christmas. Which totally sucks. I think he might take it to work tomorrow, but even if he gets the window up, there would still be something wrong.

Anyways, that is all. I have to go to work soon. So, later!!

It's been a long time...

Thu, 08 Dec 2005 06:57:15 GMT

I lot has happened since I last update... And, I mean really updated. So, here goes.

Last we'd heard, I had manged to get myself injured at a RoundAbout concert... How, you ask, because, that is quite an amazing occurance? I got pushed, and instead of falling into the microphone which would have then smacked Tony (not that we honestly care one or the other anymore, since he left the band to reform Go Ahead but still be a dick) I tried to catch myself on the moniter, and the gate was parcially off, so I gouged my arm. I have a really nice scar, that might be almost healed, and it's over 2 months old. So, that's fun times.

Nothing really happened in October. I finally moved out of the apartment... I now live in a super crowded basement room, where it gets cold and I have to listen to make sure that the dogs are not waking up. I had some family up, and my semi-aunt and uncle took me out to a bar in Seattle. It was great fun. There were all these out of towners there for the football game and they kept buying me drinks. I'm okay with that. So, then this one guy subtly slips his arm around my shoulders and slightly gropes me... When I move his hand back to my shoulder it drops to my ass... Awkward. So, Barry and Valeda (semi-aunt and uncle) and I go stand outside, and he comes back up to me, and tries to make out with me in an alley. How hot is that? Yeah. Barry, Valeda and I end up wandering around Seattle, slightly drunk, for about an hour before we try to catch a cab home. We walked from Pike Place Market, down to the Ferry terminal and then back towards the courthouse. We ran into a cop, who flashed us his badge and bid us a good night. And we caught a cab home. It was fun. I want more of my friends to be old enough to go out with. And it's soooo pretty to walk around Seattle at night.

The next week was MAE!!! So amaezing. Shannon and I got there sooo early so that we could be in the front, and we stood there through all the other bands to makes sure that we could experience Mae to the max.

It was such an amazing show, they played so well, I thought that it would be the best day ever... Shannon and I kind of felt retarded though, cause when we were walking to the line before the show, we walked past Dave and Jacob and we didn't say hello or anything... Hindsights 20/20.

The next day, Shannon and Steph and I drove to Portland to see the same show. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. The drive down there was fun, if uneventful. After we dropped Steph off in Oregon City, Shan and I had to find the venue ourselves. We got lost and I asked this really creepy guy outside of a news paper office if he could help us. We ended up on this random bridge that took us nowhere, on another random road that let to a boat dock and was hella shady in the dark, and finally got Stephanie to tell us what we'd done wrong. By the time we got to the venue, and parked (cause we had to drive around the block like 3 times, and these are worse than downtown Seattle blocks, with all the freaking one way streets) the first band had already started. We fought our way to the front, and had an amazing time. We decided that we didn't want to be upfront for Mae, because Portland scene kids are not nice. AMAZING SHOW. It was almost better to be not in the front, because we sang our hearts out and got amazing Mae merch like spiffy iPod! covers. The drive home, not as much fun... Had to have Steph drive cause I fell asleep and changed lanes... Oops. Made it home around 6am.

So, RoundAbout announced that they were not going to be RoundAbout anymore. It was sad times. But, they had 2 shows, and then the last show... The first show was at KTUB and it was such good times. They always play amazing, but it seems like, when something good is going to end. The week after the KTUB show, they played an accoustic show at Nordstrom's in South Center. Quite possible the funnest thing I have been to in a while. The boys played so well, and Dustin was a total pimp with the CDs. They made lots of new friends. Afterwards, Shannon, Steph and I went and got food. mmmmm, food.

And then, THE EARLY NOVEMBER. Never have I seen such hottness in one show. Ace, and Jeff, and Serg, and Joe, and new guy. I totally forgot the new guys name. It was sad times though, cause they weren't headlining (damn senses fail) and so it seemed really short but everyone was rocking out. There was moshing and dancing and singing. It was happiness. Totally happiness. And, the even funnier thing is that it was exactly 2 years from the last time they came to town. It's that weird? Yeah. I know.

And then, the worst thing ever. It was time for the last RoundAbout show. It was a sad day, because they played the best show I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot) and it was the last time they'd play like that. Everyone rocked so hard, and I was in the mosh pit, and everyone was on, and it was just so much fun and such good times. I almost wanted to cry when it was over because it seemed so final... Mike busted his guitar and Tony told us to support Endless, and then all was over. They got to play a couple extra songs that they normally wouldn't have been able to, but mostly cause it was their last show. It meant TP was cut short, so it was ok. lol. Anyways, no more RoundAbout, soon to be something else.

I'm really going to miss them, but whatever they do next will be simply amazing. I really can't wait.

This has been long, and fun, and probably slightly random for most of you, but it's been real. Later.

I got hurt yesterday... The doctor says I'm going to make it. lol.

More later... I'm still in the process of trying not to think about it, but my boss gave me tomorrow off because I called him in tears about it. It was crappy.

Wed, 21 Sep 2005 02:29:08 GMT

Here's a picture update, of random things that my phone has seen.

Russell, fixing my sub, but maybe being locked in the trunk for nefarious purposes... Hmmmm, idea?

Rainbow in Missoula while I was waiting for my 2 hour late bus to head back to Washington... Beautiful.

Ducks in Lake Washington the day before my 21st... Ahhhh, precious.

Andrew at a Jack's Mannequin show at Studio 7 on Mother's Day of this year. Friggin amazing show... Not so amazing pictures, cause it's a camera phone, not a camera, but ya get the picture. lol

Jared showing his "old" side. Cutest 3 year old ever.

Look, it's Oliver Twist... AKA Mallory... hahahah

My puppies, Dudley and Abigail. I miss them....

There are no good pictures of Lucy and Beau, but if I had one, I would put it up here... They never stay still long enough to get their pictures taken.

Now Steph and I are going to go do a belly dancing DVD... Good stuff.

Tue, 20 Sep 2005 04:44:48 GMT

I am sitting in my room, and I can smell the pot and it makes me sick.

2 more weeks.

Know what sucks?

Tue, 13 Sep 2005 10:12:09 GMT

I actually tried to go to sleep early this evening, cause the last two times I have had to open the store, I have overslept, and once opened the store an hour late... So, I come home after a really boring day at work, and Ben tells me that Sam and some of his friends are coming over... Fabulous. So, Stephanie and I get ready to go to bed, cause we both have to work early, and at about midnight, Ben tells us that Sam is here.... Friggin A. This is like the worst situation ever.... So, I had just barely gotten to sleep when I heard people laughing, talking and walking out the front door. Then Stephanie woke up, and we listened to Ben talk about smoking weed...

Basically, I am extremely glad that my time here is almost up. Stephanie Kuchno tried to convince me to stay until February and then move out but that would be the worst idea ever... My time in the apartment is coming to an end, and it's going to be the best for everyone involved. Ben's friends won't have to listen to me bitch, Ben won't have to listen to me bitch, and I won't have to deal with the parties... All I need is the profound countdown until the end.

Hope everyone else had a better night... I personally know that some people did, and we all just have to deal with it our own way.

Night.

Bluerosegolfer: remember that one time, where we went to this random work BBQ, and then we headed to Seattle, but you drove, and the turnoff totally reminded us of the many other times that we'd been to S7 in the past years, and we had flashbacks off all the other times we'd been there, and all the other fun trips we took, and then we found out that everyone who played at the show we were at was hella young (hello 15 year old drummer) and kind of random, and we had tacos, s$s and cheesecake and fun before I took you home? Yeah... Me too... It was great.

Auto response from EversoSweet85sr:
remember that one time i went to a random battle of the bands at studio7 and totally fell in love with that guy in the white shirt.. and then i found out he's only 17... yea me too... bummer.....

Tonight was awesome. Hope everyone else had fun. NIGHT!!!

Sat, 10 Sep 2005 08:14:36 GMT

I'm so freaking excited/really nervous for the show.

I made cheesecake from scratch today. Exciting. It looks really good, but I won't be eating it until tomorrow, and then I will be sharing it. Excited for the BBQ after work, and then a possible battle of the bands. Won't know for sure.

Off to sleep cause my battery is almost dead. And, no matter how much fun, tomorrow is going to be a very long day.

Fri, 09 Sep 2005 15:25:15 GMT

I watched the first half of the OC at the apartment last night, then I drove to Casey's house and watched the whole show. I really liked it. It made a lot of sense to me. It had some amazing lines.

Seth: Sure. Record it. Release it on iTunes! Hope it's a big hit.

Anyways, afterwards, Jeff and I hung out for a while, cause he's leaving for school today. Jeff and I had fun, and then realized that Casey was still awake... We all watched a little 3rd Rock From the Sun. Jeff burned me a copy of photoshop before I left. I'm really happy. I can do all my retarded icon stuff on my laptop now.

I'm leaving to take Steph to work now. More later.

SHANNON!!! CALL ME IF YOU WANT TO DO LUNCH.

Thu, 08 Sep 2005 06:29:44 GMT

I was driving into the apartment parking lot tonight, listening to The Postal Service, and I saw a shooting star... I hope my wish comes true.

I just put a $2.25 bid on a cell phone on ebay... It's a motorola razor. I'm excited.

You know what I should be doing? Getting ready for work...

You know what I am doing? Watching Made on MTV. It's mildly amusing.

Anyways, this week has seemed really long, and I think it's cause I worked Monday through Friday. ... Normally I have some random days off durnig the week. But, not this week.

Today starts Labor Day weekend. 2 days off in a row... Yay! Long weekends!

the summer obsession... and i'm not talking about the band

Fri, 02 Sep 2005 05:04:56 GMT

I have a new obsession... Anything Andrew is amazing. Jack's Mannequin, Something Corporate... It all works out stunningly.

Work was work. We made 10% so we get hella bank... But, not for a while.

Ready to go to bed.

Lots of people are retarded... That's all about it.

Night!!

Tue, 30 Aug 2005 07:12:46 GMT

This weekend was great. I'll start with Thursday. It was Rebecca's birthday, so Rebecca, Crissy, Sara, Meghan and I went to Cowgirl's Inc. Fabulous good fun. I was the DD, so I had one Mike's Hard, and danced up a storm. Decided that I wanted to leave early, cause I had to work early the next day, and on the way home, we detoured to 24 hour Starbuck's in Lake City and then to Safeway for socks, and then to Kenmore Lanes for some bowling. I didn't win. I couldn't even beat 3 drunk people at the game. In the process, I managed to throw away a quarter that I borrowed to pay for my game. Yeah, how dum can you feel? Everyone was laughing at me... And asking if I'd really stayed sober. As if, this isn't butte. Got home around 3:30 and went to bed. Got up less than 5 hours later for work.

Spent Friday chilling by myself. I didn't feel good, and so I watched Sin City and it was freaking amazing... Went to bed early. It was fabulous. I got so much sleep.

Saturday I went to the DOL to get a new license. Realized after I retardedly spent an hour there that they only take cash, and it was $15 and I only had $10. I went and spent the rest of the afternoon at Krystle and Kelsey's Garage Sale in Edmonds. Got an amazing deal on the best freaking phone every... It's this really old school phone, and it comes in a box, and you open the box to answer it. They were selling it for $10 and I bought it for $1. It was the best deal ever, and it makes me so happy. I also got a scanner to go with my laptop. Now I have a printer, and a scanner, and my baby laptop. I don't care what anyone says, I love my DELL!! After I left the garage sale, I met Shannon at her house, and we both drove to QFC to get our tickets to Mae in October. Walked over to Denny's and ordered food. Yummy food. I was happily surprised cause we both mixed it up a little. After food, we went back to our cars, and I started to drive away, only to get a call from Shannon that her car wouldn't start. I pull back in by her, ask this creepy guy for jumper cables, and then climb in the car... It's the fuel injection system... Or, something to that effect. I felt really smart. Went back to my appartment and set up my phone, packed stuff for after the show, and headed out. Got to KTUB really early, and went to Starbuck's and sat there for a while. Went to QFC and got travel toothbrushes... Which is not unusual for me, especially if you know me... I am a toothpaste addict... There should be a meeting for this kind of thing. lol. The show was amazing. After the show we headed to Jeff's where I napped... Oh, first we watched Music Videos and then I napped. Who really knows what everyone else was doing. Psh. Headed home to find Sean sleeping on my top bunk, and all my clean laundry on the floor. PISSED ME OFF! SO FUCKING RUDE. Little prick. Also found Stephanie Kuchno sleeping in the bathroom. Fun times. Finally got to sleep around 4.

Got up at 7 to go meet my sister and my dad for breakfast and Ikea. Had fun. Went to the races. Lost $24, but had so much fun doing it. Went back to my parents house and had dinner and talked about the living situation. It'll actually be okay. It'll cost the same, but I'll only be giving them half the money, and putting the other half into savings. There'll be some other rules, but I'm okay with limitations. It makes things easier, cause I never have to figure things out by myself. Caught part of the VMAs and basically chilled. I got so much sleep, it made me so happy.

Work today was work. Tomorrow the DM is coming, and I need to be on my best behavior to make sure that nothing happens. Definately going to need a coffee break after a day from hell. Lovely!!

Anyways, I'm headed to bed. Have lovely nights!!!

Tue, 23 Aug 2005 08:15:40 GMT

I just got the new OC. So excited. Ben and I are going to watch an episode, cause I won't let him borrow it yet and he's sad. Tear.

Okay. So, a couple of weeks ago, I went to Butte for my uncle's wedding. It was amazingly fun. We went in the middle of Evil Days and after the wedding we wandered around the streets of uptown Butte drinking rum from a bottle, talking to cops and watching fights break out. After Butte we went to Missoula and hung out there for a day. It was good as well. Took a Greyhound home, and it took so friggin long cause we had to wait for a bus, and then I had to wait for Ben to pick me up. It was just a good time. I wanna go back and chill with my uncle some more.

Last weekend I went and saw The Duke's of Hazzard with Krystle, and then Wedding Crashers with Russell and Alex. Both movies are friggin hilarious.

Went to Cowgirl's Inc with Crissy and Simon last night. Drank and danced so freaking much. At first it was a little weird, but you get used to it. Even Crissy, who says that she doesn't dance, was out on the floor dancing up a storm. It was good times. Can't wait to go back next week. I think that Ben's going to go with us next time. Who knows.

Right now, watching Starsky and Hutch while waiting for people to show up for the party. Good I love Vince Vaughn. And Jason Bateman, who's in Arrested Development.

Getting ready to meet La at Turner's to celebrate Casey's 21st birthday. I feel like, since Saturday, I've turned into a bar whore. Later peeps.

♥

Mon, 25 Jul 2005 07:58:20 GMT

I'm watching X2 which reminds me of my summer after senior year in high school. Hanging out with La and Tyler, and all the fun we had at the "Bowling Alley" and whatnot. I had to watch something that reminded me of something good, cause I'm not really in the best of moods right now.

Ben and I had a really good conversation tonight. I appreciated it. It made me understand that I need to try to put things into perspective. Anyways, I'm going to go eat Cheesecake and then go to sleep.

♥

Sat, 23 Jul 2005 04:40:05 GMT

I'm over it. And that sucks.

Thu, 14 Jul 2005 05:49:26 GMT

Hung out with Josh, Jeff, Brad and Rachel last night. Watched movies. Cracked jokes. All in all had a good day off.

Worked today. Good day.

Have to leave for work at 7 tomorrow morning. Yeah. Hopefully I'll get to work by 8, and then off work by 5, and then I can leave work at 3:30 on Friday and go to Best Buy with Garrett and get some cool new stuff for my comp.

Anyways, night y'all.
