the coolest kid on the block.

dan got me an ipod for christmas and our shopping spree. I asked him if he really thought i would choose to use the "spree" on something else and he sort of shruged. and said "no, not after your mom didnt get you the ipod" and i said "well, it was a fun excuse to look at jewelry all day."

and tonight. OKGO is playing on the roof top of the olive garden in times square new york (which is incidentaly, shaped like a bow tie) and i will be there.

its official. i am the coolest kid on the block. yes. yes i am.

oh, and some random girl on the street walking past us yesterday interupted herself mid sentance to announce (to no one in particular) "Now SHE has some nice boots!" and who was she talking about? me. thats who. and i do have nice boots. so there.

now im off to pre drink. apparently there are no public washrooms in times square. and they raise the ball at 6. ill take photos and let you know how it goes.

its cold.

i have been told i dont update enough. and from those whoknow i have secret blogs "shhh. dont tell" that i should cross post.

see, the reason i dont cross post is bc, then its not all SECRET.

anyways. 4 blogs is too much for anyone. any ways. updates.
lets see.
going to new york for new years. yeah times square.
its cold out.
i hate raking leaves. they suck.
havent had to shovel snow yet. not sure how i feel about that. ill let you know when it happens.

school is good. i like the job. i really miss the bond i had with the students. thats what i miss right now. every thing else, same. but the kids,the ones i know and that know me ... those i miss.

ran into a student walking home drunk from flahertys the other night. that was weird. he offered me and jeff a ride. we politely declined.

thanksgiving was low key. alot of laying around on couches and floors. screaming when some one sat on you, more screaming as we fought for lounging position in front of the fireplace. and yet more fighting when mom insisted on taking photos. no i wont smile. no i wont put on make up. and no i wont sit next to him/her. no. no. no.

anyways. then. today, just to be stupid as usual, i went to black friday sales with my mummy and sister and daddy. did ok. got some stuff at best buy. some stuff at express. and really thats it.

theni came home and bagged leaves.

anyways. its cold. im smelly and covered in leaves. I think its time for a shower and a nap. then... work tonight.

i swear to god. im quiting this second job after new years. it will be my resolution.

the internet is a wild and wonderful place.

cool new web toy i found.

sparkles on my death

i said peg, what color should i paintmy nails? she says black. I say like death? she say ok. i say, can i put sparkles on my death. shes all like "if im alive when you die, im making sure they glitter you up. i dont care if your kids DO think im senile"

anyways, heres what we did today.


the flying chair by mikes house.


peggy in the rainy craft fair.
thats not the red from the umbrella. thats her hair.



Then we had drinks with faces.



that is all.

the de-funkification of tuesday.

in the beginning, there were tuesdays and there was beer. and it was good. we went to a bar called "the office" and played eucher. sometimes i won, if sid was my partner. Then i graduated.

then there was buffalo wild wings, 30 cent wing nights. dan and i had a date every tuesday. usualy it was after work for him and after class for me. we would go and eat wings and have a beer or two. i would stay up way too late, and be exhausted at school the next day. but it was the only time we had together during the week most of the time.

then dan left for miami, and tv night started. it started with peggy and lonnie coming to my house to watch joe millionare on mondays. when peg and i moved into the place in wheaton, it became tuesday nights with marjorie and ricardo and queer eye for the straight guy. dan and i had talked about having some online date on tuesdays when he was leaving so as to keep the tuesday tradition, but that never worked out. he always called during the show, he always forgot when it was on. i liked that. it was kinda cute.

anyways, for the past few months tuesdays have been defunked. things got insane for a while, and nothin is settled yet. id like to get something started up again, but im not sure what. queer eye is past its prime. im a big fan of House now, but that will be moving to another night, and having the night centered around tv is somethings distracting. and besides the point. we shall see. Ive sort of decieded that i need to stop working weekends, that means that im going to ask to be switched to all weeknights. and ive also sort of decided that if they CANT do that switch, i may quit. the weekend crap is killng me right now. so tired. But if i switch nights, tuesday nights will be work nights, and tradition will be over either way.

either way. its time for something new.
