This is the second morning in a row that my coffee has turned against me.
I'm beginning to think that it's a conspiracy.
Yesterday...it was on my drive to school...
My little clip on skull coffee holder fell off the vent and landed my coffee briefly into my lap and then onto the floor by my feet.
I admit...the warming sensation in my lap wasn't...

I'm glad I'm not the only vain one in the house! Sheesh.
What kind of class are you taking, if I may inquire?

That is really great. The class, and the job you did before getting there. Wow.
My dad is a shade tree mechanic, so we work on vehicles together from time to time. I do not mind working on them, but I hate HAVING to work on them. Especially on the side of the road.

So...the bad news is that I seem to still be fired.
TECHNICALLY, on Sunday when I went in for work the lady boss sat me down for a talk. She said I'd been reprimanded for my bad attitude before and she didn't think it was fair that I would keep getting chances while the other girls aren't getting reprimanded for anything.

Thanks so much. Are stories are so much alike. I was going to schedule the vet to come to my house, but Guzzi took a very sudden bad turn and was feeling terrible so I wasn't going to maker her wait through the night. Guzzi loved riding in the car, so I drove to my 24 hr vet and had the vet come out to the car so that Guzzi didn't have to go back into that place.
legionnaire:
I wouldn't stress too much about losing the job. It's just another indication that people in Texas aren't ready to handle real NYC attitude. Go figure.
You'll find something else before you know it.

I decided that I was going to try and restore the old once since all the classic buick parts companies that I called had no fuel tanks in stock nor did any think that it was a item that they needed to carry. The care will be running tomorrow and I will be in a movie with the car this wednesday... I think it's called "the truth will tell". It's staring gweneth platrow and sandra bullock, I am sure if you looked it up on IMDB you'd find it by searching either one of those actresses.

Put the key in the ignition...
Hardly a crank...
Turned the key twice more in disbelief...
Just a click...nothing...
Made some calls and got myself a ride to school...
Arrived 15 minutes late and angrier than hell...

ewww for car trouble!! what were you gonna pierce and which shop?
spadez:
heh sounds like my past weekend went to the garage car fired up with my rebuilt carb and a little carb cleaner for prime. Then hooked up the fuel lines... nothing... checked the fuel pump seems to work opened the filter... MUD?!?!?!? Fucking MUD?!?!?!? I spent 1500 bucks on a rebuild kit thinking that it was going to be major work since it wouldn't fire for me one morning with starter fluid... now turns out that my problems were a dead battery after sitting for months and gastank full of what looks to be a clayish sand. Yeah it's not rust cause it's not all flakey like it's looks like the bottom of guadalupe river. NASTY!!!! So new gas tank should come today and I should be sputtering around town in that car by this weekend.... Yippeee!!!!
There is a reason I do not socialize with civilians.
When we make plans to meet at 6pm...and they don't show up until 8:30...
And when I say that I need to be home by 10:30 or 11:00PM...that's not a suggestion. I REALLY need to be home then.
And when you promise to have me home by 12:30AM...and I give in...I don't want to be...

I hate the same thing. It drives me nuts.
You're right about my project cars. I feel pretty good just shopping for my new daily driver. I'm thinking along the lines of a 66 el camino. I'll be OK once I got my rat rod to tinker on.

Happy fucking valentine's day...or something like that.
Last year I spent valentine's day alone with an ice cream cake and a bottle of whiskey. It was actually more fun than it sounds.
As of right now, I'm currently retired in my apt with a school friend. We spent our afternoon filling in the holes in the hood of my car with duct tape and bondo....

Hmm... we'll hang out when one of us travels to the other's region sometime this century. There's your answer, because I'm (A) poor, and (B) a horrible flaky person when it comes to making travel plans. Or plans in general.
But I still ♥ you!! xoxo Hope you had fun last night. I ended up going to my girlfriend's house... See my journal if you like.

I went out and beat up soem happy people for Valentine's Day. They had it coming, what with their happy sweetness smiley grumble grumble.
What a long fucking week.
Y'know the kind...when Tuesday feels like it should be Friday.
When 7AM feels more like noon.
Endless minutes strung together...creeping, creeping, creeping by.
But as with all things...this week too, came to an end...finally.
In fact, by Thursday...I could see the light at the end of the tunel.

Not much to report.
The flu is spreading through my school like the plague.
Trying to keep myself medicated enough to make it through another day...the thought of taking any more cough medicine makes me want to vomit.
Still not sleeping. It's more like dozing...I'll start to fall asleep and then start coughing. Start to fall asleep and then start coughing. Before I know it...it's...

Feeling a little better but now I can't sleep through the night.
And when I AM sleeping I'm having wierd dreams.
Seems spending a week cooped up in my house has left me totally down.
I'm stressed about what I'll do after graduation.
I'm stressed about how I'll get the money to move where ever I'm going to end up.

I haven't joined the bartenders group. I haven't joined any groups actually. I'm still trying to navigate the site and figure out SG etiquette. But joining the bartenders group seems like a good place to start.
