I got a job at an Italian restaurant close to my house. I can even walk there if needed. I start training on Tuesday, but I'm not sure if I'll want to keep the job because it isn't the money I'd hoped. I think the guy is hoping I'll get higher sales out of the same customers rather than him needing to increase his traffic...

Doh! I just made it on the friends list too. frown But I am expecting to meet you in March though... smile

Anyhow, congrats on the new job! Are you behind the bar there?

I hope your man does smarten up soon. I've angered some former friends of mine before but I ended up horribly regretting it thereafter. (And those were just my friends...this guy was your boyfriend!). Good luck with that.

I want a new job. Know of any restaurants that are hiring? I need to work about a jillion hours if I want to make up for the money I'm missing by quitting my job. Unfortunately, I'm totally burned out, so stripping is no longer an option. A little bit of good news: I may get a job as a kindergarten aide at my mom's...

I am planning to go to the City today, and if there's room, Home too. I will definately load your stuff up before I head out.

I hope you're not massively in debt. I live in mortal fear of any kind of debt. I think it might be almost irrational

Fingers crossed that you find yourself a job that pays well and doesn't suck.

When it's late at night, I refuse to speed. I try not to speed anyway, as my car is a cop magnet. Tonight while crossing the bridge back from SF, I was tailgated like a mofo by people wanting to go faster. I just stayed put in the slow lane, and they got pulled over when we got off the bridge! The cops were out...

I want to exist outside of who I am.

I dream sometimes of being a writer. Who have I known that writes? Perhaps I should ask who writes well. A five-minute boyfriend of mine had visions of being an author. He spoke of his novel, and would pack around a pen and pad. When we parted ways, I wondered what he filled his notebooks with....

See? what a bunch of tools for not being excited by that!
This is what I'm talking about. I have no reason to believe I couldn't find plenty of people to come and even PAY to come to it here in LA.
-Am I nuts or is this too good an idea?

I'm clumsy when I'm drunk. Just ask STITCHY. Weirdest thing about last night? I fell off a stool in a bar, I spilled champagne on myself and STITCHY, but I actually injured my calf while I was asleep after making it home safely on BART. whatever

I can barely walk. This does not bode well for working. And I spent too much last night,...

I actually got in trouble at my last job because I kept insisting at staff meetings that we all be issued with electric cattle prods. All I have to worry about then is the kids getting their drug-dealer mums to set the Yardies on me eeek

Crappy thing to hear about your Calf, I used to, and still do, get the worst cramp ever in my calf when I woke up sometimes. I'd wake up, shift my leg slightly, feel a slight twinge and think 'ohshitohshitophshitthisisgonnahurtlikeSWEETMERCIFULZEUSTHATHURTS! How the fuck did I DO that?!'

hello LA!!!!! love love love

The situation is still tentative. Not sure what he'll have to do to regain my trust, but I know it will take a long time for us to fix this if we decide to stick it out. I don't even know if I want that.

Good news: sixtyfootqueenie is here, and is just as darling in person as online! I think we'll get along just...

OH man. I just read your last entry. I TOTALLY HATE vacation bailers. It seemed for a while that whenever I planned a vacay with an S.O., that's when we decided to break up, right before the vacation, like the day before, so I was afraid to vacation with anyone I was dating. Luckily, the curse has been broken. But. Ick. Ick. Ick. frown
southernbelle:
Good luck with the boy situation, I hope whatever you decide works out for you! kiss

And I'm glad to hear your brother is excited about school....sometimes that makes all the difference!!!!

I'm back. There's a rant in the spoiler, so if you just want to hear the good stuff, don't click on it! Otherwise, I know it's a long entry, but it's a whole week's worth of vacation covered, so deal! wink

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

It is truely amazing just how quickly they can turn into an arsehole....one minute loving, fantastic boyfriend.....next immature, selfish, insensitive wanker.
I do think however that it might be getting close to re-bound time for me. I miss being touched, will have to go out and see if I can remember how to flirt!
roxymoron:
I don't know you...you don't know me..I simply came across your journal.

Here is what I have to say to you:

I don't know the whole story but you shouldn't hang on to something if you dodn't think it is right. The only advice I can give you is to be strong, be yourself, and if he doesn't really fit in with who you are as a person..then leave it...until he does. Do not lose who you are as a person just because of the situation.

Know yourself. Know what you want. If the two match up with him...then don't let go. Give it the space it needs but don't let go. If he doesn't..thet let him go. Just make sure you are being true to who you are.

wow...do I sound like a dear abby column in a dime store magazine yet?!?!

That was a very sexy party. I only just got home, though. I might as well have stayed overnight. There was an accident, and the police were re-routing traffic. Not only did I have to backtrack very far, but then when I got to the right highway, I managed to go the wrong way! I'm very tired now.


Vacation tomorrow. Actually, I guess it's today....

I'm in a rowboat on the ocean. Precarious, but upright right now. One thing goes wrong, and I'm in the drink. frown

Tell Melli she's more than welcome to attend. (For some reason she's gone gray so I can't tell her myself)

Girl, I hope you've learned how to paddle. Either that or swim. wink
I read your comment about lavender biscuits and wondered if you would mind sharing the recipe with me. They sound yummy.
