The indecisive One
Uhmm.. Late-ass update. :o) So.. this is my second weekend into school. So far I'm doing well. Keeping up with the reading (well, not for one class, but the guy's a spaz, and it's from a text book). I'll eventually catch up on that, though.
Labor day weekend, with nothing planned. :o) Phuunnnnnnn.. ;o)
I don't have any computer class this week.. monday is a holiday, and my teacher told us that she's going to have jury duty on wednesday (and it's only a two day a week class). Not like it's a horrible loss. We weren't doing too much anyways. I need to read the book anyways. Got it in the mail like, friday or something. Jason says it's a good book, so, that's all cool.
I haven't been on the internet too much in the past week because Jason has set up my computer so that it has two harddrives, one with Windows and one with Redhat 9. I'm slowly learning Linux. It's a trip. At least I have my chat programs set up on it. That makes me feel better. And Jason set it up so that Redhat can see Windows so that I can play my mp3s without having to have them on both harddrives, or go without on one of them. Jason also said that there aren't too many games for Linux, so, I'm not going to eliminate windows altogether.. Need to play games. :o) Not that I play them all that often.. but still.
I got my boots yesterday. I've been trying to break them in. I have a feeling that I'm going to have a fat blister in a couple spots on my feet before they finally break in. Oh well. I'll just have to remember to wear bandaids before I put them on. I do like having them, though. I'm kinda spastic and can't wear them for too long, but, I'm slowly getting used to them.
My wisdom tooth is healing nicely. I went to the dentist because I have having an ear-ache and I thought that maybe something was wrong. No.. nothing wrong, except maybe that fact that I clench my teeth when stressed, and that hurts my jaw, which was causing the ear-ache. I've been trying to be good. Took a pamphlet (why does that word look like it's spelled wrong?) on TMJ (what my jaw problem is called) and it said that I shouldn't chew gum. That sucks. I like chewing Trident.. And I also like crunching my Wint-o-Green LifeSavers. I take breaks in between eating bags of them, so, maybe I'll be okay.
Oh shit. I forgot that I need to call Gina about an appointment this week.. Crap. I should have done it friday night or something.
Last night Jason and I watched 'House of 1000 Corpses.' (The Rob Zombie movie). It was pretty cool. Lots of horror movie stereotypes, so, Jason and I can't figure out why it got such bad reviews. We also rented 'Strange Land' which is Dee Snider's movie. I've seen it before. Jason hasn't. The guy at Blockbuster told Jason that it is a good movie, so, that's cool. :o) We also rented 'Haurold and Maude' (sp). I haven't seen it yet. Jason suggested that we watch it together.
I don't know when we're going to watch it, though. Brad, James, Ryan and Carrie are here (Jason, Brad and James are in the back room, playing Tony Hawk and I think Carrie and Ryan are eating in the living room). So.. we're not going to watch it tonight. Maybe tomorrow..
Brad came over kinda early, and we went around shopping. We went to Tower Records, and I bought this book called 'SEX *A User's Guide' (Stephen Arnott). It's pretty cool. Almost like a small pocket book, but a tad too thick for that. Downside is that it's bright pink. But, it's cool. Some interesting facts and stats in it. Like that Cleopatra and Eva Peron were known for their fellatio skillz. Heh heh
Hmmm.. anything else going on with me?.. Nothing that I can think of right now. Other than my stomach's a bit upset. I think it's because of dinner. Maybe it was the barbeque sauce on the chicken I ate.. I didn't even finish the whole thing. Fed the rest to Montana (Carrie's dog). It's only 10:18pm and I'm tired.
::LOSER::
Anyways.. I'm off to find something interesting to do. Maybe I should have some Jager?
some updates before I go get a nap:
I quit my job yesterday.. And I've started to look for a new one this morning.
Another snappy

I got my last wisdom tooth removed today. This morning, actually, At like.. 9:30am. Isn't that snazzy? It's still bleeding. I need to replace the gauze and take another pill (ibprphen [sp]).

Hm.. so. This weekend was pretty alright. I didn't puke. :o) I did, however, stay messed up for the majority of saturday. And upon waking on sunday, felt the need to ask what was the license plate # of the truck that hit me. I showered and felt better, though..
Today was the first day of school. It went alright. My first class was interesting.. The teacher seems beyond easy. My computer teacher, however, decided so not to embarass the WWW-impaired in class by asking them to talk to her after about her website, she would spend about 10 minutes explaining how to get to it, if they don't want to type in the URL.
Ew. I also almost fell asleep. It doesn't help that I only got 6 hours of sleep.. Doesn't help that I stayed at Jason's house instead of staying at mine last night. Oh well. We got to spend more time together. <3
Andrè decided to grace me with his presence on my lap. He won't just lay here.. Wait. He's staying in one place finally. Jeez.
Oh, my mom and I went to a Japanese place for dinner. And the hostest (sp?) said that there is a party sat. night there. They are going to have music and Saki Bombs. I'm thinking about telling it to Jason and Ryan.. I dunno. It's not like I know how much the drinks are.. and where exactly are they going to stay after being smached to all hell? (If they even get smashed). Uhm, so.. Whatever
Oh, that just reminds me that Jason and I need to call Tahoe to reserve a room for the second weekend in Sept. I kinda think he's gonna want to ask people to come up with us. I don't want that. Want more alone time with him. <3 Maybe instead of Americana, where I know some people, we'll go to the Stardust, where I haven't even been to before. We'll make lots of noise. O.o *shh*
Okay.. I was going to do something, now I forgot. Oh well. Maybe it involves sleep. :o/ I'm tired.
I can't believe that I'm avoiding sleep right now.. It's fucking 6am.
Taking that quiz only makes me want to dress up with the black or silver lipstick and all the rest..
Too bad that if Jason saw me, he'd laugh. :o)
I get to go camping tomorrow!! Yay! I also get to leave work early. :o) More yay!!
Hm, so, my supervisors' boss doesn't like me.. I think she thinks I'm a slacker or something. She's having one of the supervisors watch me all the time. Apparently she thinks I get up and roam the halls too often.. Hag. (That supe. isn't Bill, btw)
Speaking of Bill, found out the other day that he has a girlfriend. So.. I don't have to worry about it anymore. :o) Yay. Well.. I dun think so anymore.
Okay, so.. Yeah.
I forgot what I was going to write. Oh well. Laters :o)

You're a Rivethead! You probably get pissed off
when people call you goth, but realise that
most of the world doesn't even make the
distinction between the two very similar
cultures. You revel in the decadence of the
computer age and like to pretend that you could
actually survive in a post-apocalyptic world.

Robert's sick. :o/ And he's moving soon. :o/ And I'm going to be out of town when he has his going away party. :o(
Hope he's at least night sick for his party, or the day he moves. Good luck down in LA!!
In other sorta bummer news:
Jason's in a weird mood as of late. He's been stressing himself on all the things he wants and needs to get done. I think he feels swamped, and then there's the fact that he doesn't like where he's living. He wants to move out already. Apparently him and Ryan are thinking of moving in together. Which is cool, 'cause then he'll have his own place, Ryan might not be around too much, 'cause he spends a lot of his time with Carrie (Jason's sister). And then, Jason'll have a garage to stick his new motorcycle in. Then there's what he was telling me last night.. That he feels that his time isn't his, and that he's not as active,or has as many close friends as he used to about 5 years ago. He's lost touch with a lot of the groups he used to hang with. And I think that's not making him too happy lately. And I dunno what to do. :o/ I never really hung out in crowds, so, I'm used to having only the small circle that consists of people that are family and practically family. *sigh*
Eek.. Time to run to work. I'll try and remember to write more later

Okay.. dunno when my last post was.. Maybe a few days. Started looking at another comic, which I saw before.. I was on a forum with the artist, I think..
Wapsi Square is what the comic is called. It's pretty alright. Not updated to often.
Okay, so, last week, I flipped out at work. Got all stressed, called Jason, and was flipping. That sucked. Jason wasn't too happy, because for a few days, the only time I would talk to him on the phone was when I was pissed off. And that doesn't work out. And I was frusterated, and unhappy. So, he came and picked me up on friday night, after work. It was mildly tense, and we rough-housed that night. I think to get the tension out. I have two bruises on my arm where he bit me. The hurt. O.o But, it's all in good fun, or whatever. I'm not mad.
Saturday, I got to get on the back of his motorcycle. That was a lot of fun. He's converted me to wanting a sports bike. They are way quieter, and your ass isn't vibrated to nothingness after riding it. So.. damn. Jason and I drove to the Google parking lot and I practiced driving with his car (which is a manual). It went pretty well. I'm not all stellar at it. He was saying that I would be able to drive us home.. said that freeway driving was the easiest. Well, since I paniced when I shifted to 2nd because all of a sudden were going faster, I wasn't ready for trying the freeway. Lots more practice is in my future. I'm so slow..
We drank that night. I had the 'Crazy Nazi' shots with Jason's sister. Went to the lanD. I was falling asleep around I dunno what time, so, I went to bed. Jason finished about 8 or so beers and then came to bed around a half hour after I went to sleep. I must have been passed the fuck out, because I don't remember him getting into bed.
He drove me to work sunday. We listened to his music that he used to listen to when he was 17. That was cool. It was mainly Rammstein. And they are cool. Funny ass english lyrics.. shit is definatly lost in the translation.
So.. I have this little delimma which made itself apparent last week at work. I think my supervisor, Bill, like-likes me. (how 7th grade of me). So, we joke and talk at work. And I think I was getting some sort of vibe from him. I told Jason about it saturday. He didn't have too much to say about it, really. Maybe because I was just like 'hey, I can't tell if another guy likes me, or if he's just being cool.' So, I'm an idiot. But, I dropped Jason's name when talking with Bill yesterday at work. He didn't seem to react against it, so, maybe he's just being cool.
But then, I walked down Van Ness with him to catch the bus home, and we talked about the internet, and I got the name of a forum that he posts in, and he said that he has AIM, and I got that from there. So, we were talking on AIM last night.
So.. he was getting drunk, and we were just talking about nothing. He says that we should drink together. I never said yay or nay. After that, I asked him 'am I an amusing person to be around, or is it the alcohol?' He said 'you are fun.' Then later he said that we should go see the group 'Television' together. Again, didn't really answer that. Passed it off with 'I didn't know there was a band with that name.'
So, then, him signing off was 'we'll see how I feel about you tomorrow good night.'
So, wtf. I have no clue what's going on, you know? I'm kinda socially inept, so, I can't tell if he likes me, or what. My firend Joleen says that I should just come out and ask him. Or, if he mentions the drinking again, I could say something about him, me and Jason hanging out. Or I can ask him over the internet. But that means I would have to wait until tonight, to see if he gets online.
And I have no idea what to tell Jason, because I feel like I'm sneaking something, and I hate that! *panics* I have no time with Jason during my weeks.. Oh god. I'm starting to flip out. I need to quit thinking about this. I need call Jason. Shit. He's at work. I can't talk with him about this over the damn phone! :o/
Okay. I leave for work in about 1 hr 40 minutes. Maybe I'll write him an email. Blah. Bite me..
halo_in_reverse (visit said person on IRC dal.net) is a buttmonkey.
Most awesome phone call today. Called some guy in Illinois at 8:30pm his time He screamed at me. "What's the matter with you calling this late at night? Don't you have anything better to do?!" I said to him "no, this is my job." Yes.. I actually said that. So, he was all, "Well.. it's not my job to answer your phone call! Don't call me ever again!!" *click*
Best phonecall so far. :o)
Ah.. two people have relayed 'hi' messages to Jason from IRC. They used to talk with him back in the day while he was on IRC all the time. One of them said that he might draw Jason and I. That would be cool. I showed him to the picture that I have of us down there a few posts ago..
Anyways.. I'm now sick to my stomach because Steve decided to microwave a potato, and the microwave had some butter or something in it.. The house smells buttery sweet. Gross.
So.. what's up with me thinking about dieting and all that?
I hate it. I kinda feel that maybe because I like carbohydrates like potatoes and bread so much, that that's the thing I should be restricting myself. Considering all I've done since I got out of high school is gain weight at a pretty steady pace.
But, if you think about it, I'm gaining weight, because I used to at least walk uphill to school everyday. And I had the two years of PE where I'd be doing about 90 crunches a day. I should just start doing that again. I know I should. The walking is pretty much going to come back because when I start going to City, I need to walk about half the distance I used to walk to high school, to get to a bus stop, which takes me to the BART station, where I get off the bus, and walk to school. Which is between 2-5 blocks depending on which bus, where I get off, and where my class is.
Okay. So, I'm just going to have to start the crunches again. It's no sweat. They don't take too long. Now I only need to find out if it's better to exercise in the morning or at night. But, I think it's more convenient for me if I do it in the morning. Just because there's a chance I might be at Jason's, in which, I don't want to be all 'honey, wait about 15 minutes while I exercise, okay?' And if I'm with him in the morning, he need to get to work pretty quick, I can do them after he leaves, or I can do them while he's showering or something.. It's just easier to work around in the morning. Okay.. so. No finding out if it's better in the morning or evening.
It's already set. Does that mean that I should start right now, though? It's 12:52pm. I guess I should. To get the ball rolling, you know?
Ack. There is going to be at least one person reading this.. Ack ack ack..
Oh well. I feel gross.
At least I'm going to see Jason again tonight. :o) He came over last night. I missed him. <3
Bye
I think Jason's phone died either yesterday, or saturday night.. This sucks. I last talked with him saturday. I'm such a spaz. And I think I'm whining. Oh well.
I need to wash Andrè. He's a dirty cat right now. I should go change
my t-shirt so that I can wear it to work.
I like my t-shirt. <3 :o)
Oh, about today's earliest post. I spilled milk on my keyboard. I still need to wash it.. But, Steve brought one from his house, and that's what I'm using. :o) Yay. I made the post with the character map and the mouse. Interesting shite.
Oh, also, I had a short work day, because the phone lines weren't working. We stayed an hour, and then got sent home. Oh well. Got paid $9 to read a book for an hour. That's always cool. :o) But, then it took me two hours to get home. I <3 MUNI..
Hm, Jason's supposed to come home tomorrow!! Yay! I called his cell today, and it was off. I'm kinda thinking that his phone died, and he didn't bring a charger. Oh well. Maybe he'll call me tomorrow sometime, like.. saying that he's going to come over.
I'm going to attack him the next time we're alone. Which, will hopefully be soon.
P.S.
And since I just listed all the comics I read in a post, and only have links to four of them in my sidebar.. I feel bad. I'm going to link them all soon. I just don't feel like messing with it right now. :o/
Okay, I've officially read every comic in this list. I'm caught up in all of them. They are all still producing comics, with the exception of Smut! which seems to have stopped this January (whether it was canceled, or what, I dunno). The list is from what I started reading first, to the most recent that I've found amusing and caught up on. Side note as well: Prof. Ashfield changed styles, then shut down and is now saying that he will start up in Sept.Sluggy Freelance --

PMSing sucks the biggest balls I can ever imagine.I get all sorts of emotional, and with no patience for anything. How does that mix with telephone surveying?
My supervisor yesterday gave us some tips on how to up our rate. ::Talk fast:: If you don't give them the time to think about participating, they'll go along with it. If they weren't going to in the first place, they'll hang up on you.
I've done the survey we're going to do on sunday twice so far. They were both around 30 minutes. I have to try and cut it so it's half that. That is going to suck.
I miss Jason.

( funny how we've talked on the phone since we last saw each other [thursday morning], but I still miss him to death. He's coming home monday. :o/ )

personality test says of me:
Like just 8% of the population you are a MASTERMIND (SIAT). You can be silent and withdrawn, but behind your reserved exterior lies an active mind that allows you to analyze situations and come up with creative, unexpected solutions. Normal people call this "scheming." Don't learn German.
Anyway, your sense of style and originality are your strengths, and people will respect your judgment once they get to know you. If you learn to be a little more personable, you could be a great leader--you've definitely got the "vision" thing down. Just make sure all the plotting you do behind those eyes of yours is healthy.

Interesting facts about the PERSONALITY TEST at the time that I took it:
9,817,011 people have taken TheSpark's Personality Test.
41% of them are male, 59% of them are female.
The most common personality type is the Guru (SEAF).
The rarest is the Businessman (DECT). Only 3% of all test takers fall into that category.

So.. I went to Edwin's birthday party. When I got there, I found out that his birthday surprise was that he cut off all of his hair.. He looked better with short hair, so, it was a good change. Maybe he won't dye it anymore.. But, how much can I talk about that, considering that I've been dyeing my hair for a bit now..
It was a pretty cool party.. Didn't take me too long to get there from work, so that was cool. I didn't drink until he brought out the Jagar. :o) It's some good stuff. A friend of his from Blockbusters was playing 'bartender' and made a 'Crazy Nazi.' Which is a shot that is a 50-50 mix of Goldschlager and Jager. You put the Goldschlager in first. It was supposed to taste minty, but, I'm guessing since I was already drinking Jager, I didn't get that effect. It just tasted like the Goldschlager to me.. I'll fix it up for Jason and crew sometime. They have Goldschlager at the house. I'll just buy the Jager, since, I don't think that anyone else really likes it.
Hm, so, Nadia was there as well. Nadia was this girl that promised Edwin her 'tang while Edwin and I were together. She hasn't come through yet.. I was smashed enough to bring that up to her (her not coming through and all). She was all like 'it's so good to finally meet you.' I said 'I'm not sure it is so good to finally meet me.' Told her I was a tad bit bitter still.
She said something about being glad that her and Edwin are close, and some other crap.. Whatever..
One the other hand.. Jessica, Edwin's current girlfriend, and I bonded a bit over Nadia. We both can't stand her. I wasn't drunk while getting some bond with Jessica. She told me that Jose (Edwin's dad) said that she's a little bit like me. That's kinda weird, but, oh well. Apparently Jessica went through a 10 year relationship much like the 4-5 year relationship that I had with Edwin. Killer. We have something in common. Weird how she's with Edwin, though. 'Cause I don't think I would be in a relationship with someone that was just like my exboyfriend (she compared Edwin with her ex).
But, I think I'm lucky because I have Jason. He really cares about me. I feel very lucky..
Oh, also, when I first got there Raf and Abel were there at the top of the stairs. Both were like 'daymn we haven't seen you in forever.' It was great to see them again. Shit, that reminds me that I need to call Roxana (Edwin's mom). It seemed to take a while for his family to get around to liking me, and now, well, we aren't around each other often, but, I think there's still something.
Hm, in other news. There are mosqitoes in my house. And I saw Jeremiah on my way to work yesterday. He looked taller, and his voice was deeper. (I know Jeremiah through my sister, they went to the same school. He lives near us.) Jeremiah had this huge crush on me a while back. Too bad I didn't have enough influence to make him quit smoking. But, when he went away, he quit smoking. So, that's good. It was kinda weird seeing him. Though, he was still kinda spazzy. That hasn't changed,
Oh, in case you're wondering, I got a cab home. Split it with Jessica's friend, Julia. She was really nice. We sat around and talked about our boyfriends for about a half hour.
It felt good to go out on my own. I was at a party, and talking to people I didn't know. Granted, it was a small party, but, I did come late into it. But, it was a pretty cool experience for me. It just means that I'm not a stick in the mud, and I do know how to socialize. I just don't get around to doing it often. Shit. I need to get some of those pictures that were taken.. I wonder who's camera that was. I'll email Edwin about it..
Alright. This must be the longest post I've ever done. Cool.
I'm testing the this program for blogs.. This is slightly weird.
>>update<<
Our bold reader has informed me that no one else can see the pictures I put up. I thought it was too simple to work.. Oh well.
But I can still change the font color, right?
Ah, so, bought Edwin a book today. Ordered one for Jason.. Bought myself two pairs of guy pants (cargo ones that unzip to shorts). :o) That's enough of me spending $$ until I get my next check.. Which will be two weeks from now. :o) Well.. the 13th of August. It's all good. All I have to do is forget I have some $$. There isn't going to be much in my back account after I see Gina next week, anyways. Since I owe her back pay.
In other news.. I miss Jason already. I last saw him thursday morning, and we talked on the phone last night. I miss him.. O.o Yes.. My name is Lorraine and.. I'm.. addicted!! I said it, okay?! *ahem* S'cuse me..
If I didn't say it before, he's going to Las Vegas for the weekend. A friend was going to play down there (turns out it was a scam, they got some money ripped off), but, there was already a reservation for a house to rent, with whatever deposit being non-refundable. Might as well go, right? [BTW, the band is:
BrokeNeck. And James is the bassist. They are awesome, go listen to their mp3s!]
I have to go into work today at like.. 5 pm. I still need to call my neighbors about babysitting sometime this weekend.. And then, I get to see if I'm just going to drop Edwin's gift off tonight, or if I'm going to stay for the 'party.' No idea.. But, I get off of work at 9pm, so, I'll have to choose pretty quickly, 'cause the lines'll stop running, and I think I'm going to be pretty far off from home.
Oh.. Last night I was questioned about my online comic reading.. I counted.. I check up on 11 online comics. One is paused until Sept., one hasn't updated since January, and one I'm still catching up on. All the rest, I'm caught up in, and check almost daily ('cause they are updated pretty much daily, with some exceptions.)
Alright.. No more to say. Laters..
