Okay... so um... I'm super duper stressed out and depressed right now, so I'll be back when I'm sane again*.

*I'm also visiting my folks this weekend, and they don't have the internet. Cos, you know, nothing fixes you up like a weekend with the family. whatever

If it makes ya feel any better....I'm going to be struggling to make rent this month too. Mine's $350 and I only have about $200. So, I have to hope that between now and when it is due those to whom I deliver pizzas are very, very generous.

Life sucks when you're poor, eh.

I'm freaking out. Starbucks was supposed to call about the job by today at the latest, and it's 3:00pm and still nothing. I don't know what I'm going to do if I don't get this job.

Yesterday I had to pick up two prescriptions: my depo shot and my Wellbutrin. Together, they cost me more than $180 because I'm not coverd by my parents' health...

The dreaded Starbucks interview was this morning and I think it went really well. The manager was super nice and the interview questions were really easy. For the most part all she wanted to know was what I liked and didn't like about my past jobs, and some really general stuff like "When I say 'customer service', what does that mean to you?" whatever I admited...

Good luck on that job. I really hope it goes well for you. Im in the same boat kid-o. I go in tomorrow for an interview/testing for a welding job. My plan is to be a bartender a few nights a week, learn welding till I can afford my own tools/and place to weld, and learn web design so that I can sell all the art or steel furniture on my own cool site. Then again, I really do believe life is what happens in between your goals. So what do you ultimately want to do? What is your dream job?

No, I saw the Starbucks girl the other day interviewing someone. She's very, very cute love

One of the quiet luxuries of being unemployed is that it affords you the capacity to be in a good mood on Monday mornings... it's 11:00am, I'm drinking my coffee, Dawson's Creek is on TV on mute, I'm listening to the Breeders and the JSBX really fucking loud, and working on my distro. Life is good. I'm getting advertising rates from local indie rags who...

Great avatar, and a JSBX fan too! You rock.
jcup:
Since I work nights I get to have days like that. I just miss having them alone. I tend to need alot of alone time. Mostly I like playing music when Im alone and watching a skate video and fixing or cleaning something at the same time. I enjoy not having to be concerned or distracted by anyone else. It's actually the time I can get the most done or have the best thoughts. So, the last album I bought was I think Poison Idea. I've sold almost all of my music. When Im not broke again Im gonna start rebuilding my collection, only Im gonna have it in vinyl and on the computer. No CD's. I'll burn mixes. I look forward to that day. smile

P.S. We have the same birthday. wink

I would have done the same thing.. There is nothing worse than throwing away perfectly good food. Especially since there are people and children starving all over the world..

Starbucks donates their stale food to charity. Which is what everyone should do. Nothing gets thrown away unless its contaminated. If its just broken, they cut it up and sample it out. So there is less waste of food.

Sorry I lost you. heh, I get ahead of myself when it comes to explaining my job. wink Though, when you're going through training.. what I said will make better sense. I hope you get the job.. It's really fun. There's a lot to do and a lot to remember.. but as long as you take notes on the things you might forget.. and pace yourself. you'll be fine.

I'm glad we're friends now. smile

I'm getting The Happless Child done as a half sleeve. I grew up with Gorey.. and I couldn't express my love for him in any way. My little sister DIESELGIRL is getting the picture in my journal tattooed on her somewhere.. We both grew up reading Gorey Stories.

Some things:

1. I had a meeting this morning at Enterprise Fredericton to talk about the distro. Nothing was really sorted out, but I left a copy of my business plan with the guy and he's promised to give me some feedback later this week. I also got a bunch of pamphlets and booklets about various sources of funding. Seeing as I'm not collecting EI,...

oh yes! i can never have enough books to justify my laziness! thanks for that ooo aaa

Are you a good friend?: I'm a lazy friend. Slack at returning emails, phonecalls, letters, everything. I'm also quite paranoid with friends--- I hate pressure and feeling forced to conform to social routines and that kind of thing (if that makes any sense). So I like to dip in and dip out as far as hardcore socialising goes--- at least that way I enjoy myself every time I'm out. But ultimately I'm always following my own agenda, which is probably quite selfish. oink

"News":

On Thursday I saw veteran Canadian pop-punk rockers Chixdiggit at my local Elk's Club. Seriously. They kicked my ass, they rocked so hard. They played all my favourites, including "Henry Rollins is No Fun", "I Wanna Hump You" and "Shadowy Bangers from a Shadowy Duplex". They also have a new bass player named Mike who is, like, 22 years old. He is teh hawtness,...

last band: the Distillers. I left feeling drenched with sweat, utterly worn out, and rocked from head to toe. Brody is a goddess.

well i dont know if obligated was the right word. i mean i didnt feel that i had to update everyday for anyone elses benefit, i just felt like i was doing it for myself i guess. like i had this outlet and i should utilize it. its kinda selfish too, cuz i just like getting comments from people and you seem to get more the more often you update. i dont know. geez i seem to be saying that alot lately. i just dont know.

It's 11:53 and I'm watching Futurama on Teletoon and waiting for The Daily Show with John Stewart to come on. John Stewart, btw, is sex on a stick.

Anyway, it's that episode where Fry goes to Mars Univeristy, and his roommate is a super-intelligent monkey named Gunther. However, the monkey is only super-intelligent because of a special hat he wears... ultimately Gunther has to choose...
