Closed in Centralia till thursday. The detour from Portland? I left at 1:30 pm and got to Sonya's in Olympia at 7:45. Fuck me. I hate Yakima. I don't want to go back.
Oh well. I had a lot of fun in Portland. I hung out with Aaron..and just played Rock Band the entire time basically. The brief highlights?
"He's 47.. He was... Read More
So I got food poisoning yesterday. That was fun. The first thing I do when I wake up? Shit a god damn watermelon of liquid out of my ass at once. It was like giving birth out of my ass, but the baby... Read More
haha totally tmi probably but I went through the same situation for like 4 days, weeks ago when I had my food poisoning... I was crying profusely to the fact that I couldn't walk straight or go anywhere, and regardless of my inability to eat anything my body wanted to get rid of something every 20 min... sometimes every 5 min... it's the worst fucking thing ever. I felt really thin when I got better that was the only fucking upside... Lucky for me this all hit when I was in the middle of writing a paper... I got a late grade on that paper.....
Not only did I just watch one of my neighbors get arrested while I was on the phone,
my landlord's son just told me to "be quiet, there's old people" when I was talking to Bri, these people the people who yell at their kids across the courtyard at all hours of the night/day, and have loud parties and are always fighting and yelling late... Read More
maybe it's just me, but I totally prefer the cheap shitty place that's close to work, my stove doesn't work, my hot water cuts out (at least I figured out how to fix it)... all of the ceiling lights have burnt out and my deck is about to fall off hahahah.... but yea, totally worth it for the money I save and the time well spent not traveling long distances.
(does it make you feel any less stupid if I say that I've caught a towel on fire with a hair iron?)
oh yea, I forgot to mention, my heater leaks water so we don't run it and we don't even have a dishwasher... haha yea so we both have shitty apartments... somehow it still doesn't phase me. (learn to live rugged! )
Holy fucking shit. Rock Band is fucking intense and awesome. I haven't had this much FUN with a new game in YEARS. Maybe TF2, but this is different.
So I got it around 3 in the mail, and I just stopped playing it, cause keith has to go home. I'm going back in a minute to solo. But holy-mother-fucking shit. So Me and Keith are... Read More
Cooking is almost like a zen experience for me, and at the same time chaotic and anarchistic in nature, my balance. YING FUCKING YANG BITCHES! God damnit. My Mom has definitely warn off on me.
It's my cure all to almost all (mental) ails, gives me peace of mind and just helps me stay sane I think. Let's delve deeper!
You could come and loiter out front, then we'd pop out every once in awhile to visit you.
doesn't that sound like fun?
no?
ah well, hurry up and get older then.
or i'll throw a party when i return and hopefully meet you then.
i do know the experience of working with one other employee (friend Jason) and entering a zone of prep, serve, sell, stock etc. We were in a deli, coffee, ice cream, place so not as artful as cooking but a similar experiencing in the fluid shifting of tasks, sensing their next move, prepping for them while still doing my thing. I know several dancer/cooks who say the two have many similarities. So you still might become a dancer, yet.
It's a good thing you've discovered cooking in this way. enjoyed reading about it.
I've heard before that simple tasks are good for the soul, and I agree. I just started a retail job. I fold clothes all day. It's nice. It is the only time I'm forced to just sit and ponder. I used to love bussing tables for the same reason.
I woke up thinking today was going to be uneventful, and semi useless. In a way I was right, but I had a good day.
I woke up late, eventually decided to go out around 2-ish and go to a thrift store or two and get some food for dinner.
I actually..just walked back in the door. 5 hours later.... Read More
I want your snacks!!!!!
Fudgesicles, I think if someday I end up in Washington, we should hang out so you can drink me under the table.
You know what? You are my only guy buddy on this site. Everybody else kinda weirds me out. Yay! I lurves me some buddies!
It may not be oodles of more money, but it's the fact I got one after being there for a year and a half that is just kind of..yay. I'm appreciated enough to be given more money.
Instant Karma? My 24 year old male bartender is too chicken shit to close the bar by himself, so I had to... Read More
i hope he let you drink while you waited. that'll settle some karma.
karma's a weird concept. or rather it makes sense in a Golden Rule kinda way,
but people can twist it pretty insanely.
The weird thing about the Metallica is i rarely listen to them anymore. further wackiness
was walkinfg with my 25 year old friend and he kept singing this tune stuck in his
head which was so familiar to me. "is that elton john?" "time on my hands, blah blah
blah you, listen blah balh lovers blah... whatever." everyone knows this song from
elton in the 80's. sigh. How the hell did that get stuck in his head?
In all honesty my body should have just revolted against me and shut down of its own accord. But it didn't. It took the abuse like a trooper. I'm feeling it now.
So let's start at the beginning. We woke up late around 11 or so and did morning things for a bit. I already had my... Read More
What is that you ask? I have a gallon of vodka.
Keith has a gallon of vodka.
The challenge? How much can we drink if we start at 10 am, and don't stop till we pass out.
It's going to be drunk movies, drunk lanning TF2(which has stolen my life away) and well..drunk everything.
Expect pictures, posts, and drunk dials.... Read More
The sushi chefs there were pretty entertained as well. And they realized my value. They took away the silly $4 plate beppo put me on and put two $9 plates and one $5 plate under me. It was like riding around on a throne. Until some chunky Brit kid started eying me. Then it was like I was riding on a spotlight screaming '"EAT ME! HERE I AM!"

congrats on the fanciness, twinkletoes.
