Here's a funny little tidbit...

Typically the only time I remember my dreams is when I have PMS.

Not only do I remember the dreams, but they're colorful, vivid, and actually make sense.

Not the kind of dream where I say, "You were there too! Well, it wasn't you, but I knew it was you...y'know?"

This phenom has been going of for years.

Every day during my lunch hour I head out to my flat black magical minivan and pop the back hatch open. I curl up in there, warming in the sun, eating my bagged lunch and reading a book.

I amuse myself by watching the beautiful cars and trucks (like the one pictured in my last journal) going in and out of the hot rod shop...

I'm old.

Don't laugh, I mean it.

I know I've joked about my being 'old' for a while now...mostly because I spent so much time around youngsters...and don't look my real age.

But seriously, it's like one day I woke up...and I was old.

I'm tired.

My body hurts.

I'm asleep by 10PM.

I make noises when I get out of a chair...

I had...

don't know if it will make you feel any better, but nonetheless, it is the god's honest truth.

dude just do what you want and all that kid stuff will happen. i'm surrounded by "desperatley-seeking husband/fathers," but the only people getting knocked up are the ones out there with their balls to the wall.

CHECKING IN:

Work?

My feelings on work depend on the day.
Some days I leave feeling like a million mother fucking dollars...knowing this is EXACTLY why I risked so much to make this happen.

Some days I leave with my resume in the passenger seat.

I'm making in two weeks what I used to make in a night. That's humbling. But I'm not giving up....

datsun:
now that you're in CA, you'll have a better chance at getting a job. in-person contacts are always better. and business was slow when you were heading out here - the economy in the Bay Area got sluggish last year for a few months. if you ever want to interview up here, I'm happy to dirve you around the bay area for a day!
legionnaire:
We still miss you in NYC. However, at least now you're in a place worth visiting.

8 roommates? I did that once. The year after I graduated college I lived in a place with seven other guys. The really sad thing was that six of us were very neat and clean - but it only took two slobs to make the place disgusting most of the time.

I've been having a good week at work.

Busy with nearly more cars I can handle.

And loving it.

But not as much as when yesterday my boss pulled me aside, shook my hand and told me I was doing a good job...and then handed me a fifty!

I went right out and bought myself some new tools!!! love

So the other night I was talking to my friend Mekkah...and she asked me if I wanted to know what her image of me out here in Cali looked like. To which, of course, I answered, OF COURSE!

In Mekkah's mind...I'm wearing body hugging cover-alls...with my name in the corner, make up perfect...hair done, pink scarf tied around my neck... And after a day of...

I know you guys are just NOT going to believe this...but...I ACTUALLY went out and had some fun yesterday.

One of my housemates invited me to a car show in San Fransisco, to which I answered, "Please...get me the FUCK out of here!"

Which she did, but not before I revisited my pincurling glamour routine and found something in my closet to sqeeze into.

As...

Contrary to popular belief...I have NOT fallen off the face of the earth.

However...2006 has so far, covered me in poison oak and given me the flu. So if the edge of the earth weren't so far away? I might just be throwing myself over it as we speak.

Yay, I'm there!
Are you in SGSF?
missnomer:
I'm such a dork. When I read 'Marina' I think of the snooty SF neighborhood, not the town blush

I think that if you have papawheelie (or someone else you know IRL) vouch for you, you can dodge the open event requirement.

So yesterday...my boss handed me $40 and let me leave work early.

While I'm not convinced it just wasn't his way of getting rid of me...he said it was his birthday present to me.

He suggested that I go down to the farmers market and buy myself some stuff.

So I did...

After filling my minivan with organic apples, tomatoes, kiwis, special kalamata olive spreads...
