Um, so, this weird thing that I write in my livejournal now I guess again. And an actual journal which is more important. Documenting the bizarre people at work, the people that for whatever reason like to talk about their stories, maybe its the coffee or just the eclectic coffee house atmosphere but in a way I sort of know everybody (as we all do). I even housewife there, I dust little corners with my dainty cloth sometimes when it's slow and stand back, beaming a little with pride for my enthusiasm toward cleaning things. Yes. So.

I didn't mention that I'm feverishly drunk off of this man:



today. Or that I slept like 13 hours, and when it was time to sweet-talk my mom into letting me go out for just like an HOUR or something, she said the only place I could go to was April's house and nowhere else. Now, in her mind this would be a good thing because April lives nextdoor, but if there's any place I shouldn't be when I'm sick with a fever, it's April's house (aka the Party House). But I survived, my mom asked me sweetly if I had a good evening, and yeah. In reality, there was no Partying. Just lots of Sudoku.

Is Sudoku the new Social Skills?

This is me updating. I'm sorry livejournal--I'm real sorry. Um. I saw Depeche Mode. I was freezing and for the first 15 minutes or so I was sitting on a wet blanket, and it was still like just really really Good. I want to do it again actually.

Other things:
-wow, um senior prom and shore weekend whatnot is in 2 weeks.
-I gave $100 to a former co-worker because he was in debt exactly $100. Karma had better hit me back.
-Yesterday was a poetry festival. I didn't read. I am an idiot.
-I think I know everything about psychology now.
-I found a picture of Gabby on my computer just now. It made me smile.
-I really really like this new Ultra Electro cd.
-My hair is very very blonde. It's been for over a month now. But people still haven't noticed.

I am going back into photo documenting mode.

While home sick yesterday I had thoughts that were 24 hours long, I wore them out so thin they were like pick-up sticks by the time I woke up. Stupid urgent ones that aren't SO urgent now, just sort of "stop avoiding now that it's just me and you", "you" of course being April in my hand. Last night I threw handheld April against some washboard, reorganized myself by color. Whatever. I've been sort of delirious I guess.

This morning my boss was drunk, he opened the store an hour and a half late. Which was okay because I haven't had coffee in 3 days. Last night I almost watched every Clara Bow movie I own but instead I decided to fall asleep.

An update:

I am trying to write this horrible horribly sad story with this devastating ending while listening to Numa Numa. Hi I am going nowhere in life with this approach to everything EVER.

I sat in a hair salon and got into so many awkward conversations with people with siblings who notoriously did their own thing. Maybe 4 older women kindly broke to me that I am the black sheep of my family, most likely I have always been, I don't think they know my family so well. I keep trying to make up excuses as to why I should and can wear sunglasses every day all day, this of course would require me to be outside every moment of my life, which I don't think would be so bad. Maybe my new thing will be mysteriously sitting outside reading a book, mysterious in that I don't talk to anybody and flip pages thinking real deep about everything wearing huge black sunglasses. On chairs in the sun. My face of course will get tan except for these pale things around my eyes I'm surprised that doesn't happen to everybody. Um.

I might do this multi-step hair-coloring process at work today if I'm bored carefully in the bathroom, preventing people from all those bathroom needs. Today I will buy a book by Colette but this won't happen in real life because I would have to drive to get to a bookstore. Hi I don't drive. Realistically I guess I will dye my hair before work (if I have time, just one of the many steps involved). I will sit on my porch in the sunlight, pretending to bake my skin gently and I'll play bongo drums on the blanket in the hot sun, sitting cross-legged dreaming of gorgeous dreaded hair flip-flopping to some wild beat that I will produce like second nature, kind of like swallowing. We don't notice it happens until we tune in, I guess. I will scribble songs into my tattered notebook like a real musician, I will try to become a real musician I suppose this weekend or something. Yesterday was lots of being outside, kind of liking the pollen (in my case). This is where I am outside all the time. Basically the themes of this weekend probably are:

-I don't want to wear shoes ever again
-I want secret dreads, I have secret dreads but they should be blonde
-I want to write music to sway to

The end

I feel pretty nice today, it is pretty nice today. I feel a little like a girl today, and when I woke up I wasn't cold and lost in the dark etc.

I don't think I can chew gum for a very long time again, I was in math and I heckled a kid next to me for a piece, my eyes lit up when he tossed it to me and I put it in my mouth and felt sick, I thought I was chewing a separate tongue or something. I thought I would be forced to swallow it eventually. I wanted to die I couldn't spit it out right away though because I felt sort of bad, I spit it out into its wrapper (so many creases!) under the desk eventually and streaked my shirt with saliva. Basically I drooled all over myself yesterday morning and the bubblegum-scented stains of drool didn't go away.

I feel like a girl because after school Gabby is taking me to her gym. And the mall. I am excited because I might go tanning! I have never done this before. I think I might like feeling like a girl. I might stop into work after school just so I can arrive at the gym with an iced coffee. Jiggling ice and biting the straw as I talk about my daily fitness routines, "Well I walk to school every morning about a block from Cool Beans, oh I dance all the time. I never really stop dancing." Yeah. What if I decide to go into the tanning bed, forgetting I'm severely clausterphobic, and black out? Maybe I will get pink!

Three cereals I miss:
1.Cinnamon Toast Crunch
2.Lucky Charms
3.Cinnamon Life

My sea monkeys have crystalized, ordinarily this would make me gag (in horror and self-disgust) and do some cute little dramatic thing but I refilled the tank and they're alive again, swimming, and stuff. Yesterday at work a woman showed me a picture of a kitten, its little person voice asked me to take it home. Ughhhhh.

I'm listening to Moby which is perfect beach music, I am on the beach (my brother's room is the shore because the windows are open obviously) and my sunglasses are in my bag crusted with beach sand (granola from breakfast which seeped out of my bag sometime during I think 2nd period). I'm half in the other room with the computer listening to this song but my hair is black and curly and Gabby and I are talking about seeing the movie The Beach, we are getting ready to sleep at my house tonight and it is really warm out. I might walk barefoot around my parking lot for like 10 minutes if it's warm enough. I might move into Cool Beans, I am there all the time smiling lovingly as I windex secret surfaces, I am the baby of Cool Beans. I am a Cool Beans baby. I bought a Pacman skirt today.

I want to have a warm sleepover at someone's house in my new stretchy black sleepy-pants, sprawling into different positions a lot. Just get real comfortable underneath someone's sheets and have a morningless future, um I really want to snuggle underneath someone else's sheets with music. I just think it would Be Nice.

In my fantasy world: I can go home and sleep and wake up without these horrific cloudy bags under my eyes, you know sleep warm in my bed (MY BED IS REALLY WARM NOW) and enjoy this rainy day the way the Perfect Rainy Day should be spent: reading in bed. Calling my dad from downstairs and sending him to Cool Beans to get my basil tomato and mozzerellayo on foccacia, and some salad with cranberries and walnuts along with my chai invention. MY Chai Invention. I giggle when he's out as I think "I owe Cool Beans" all smug to myself. Last night at work I dusted the tops of things all careful, leaning over tea pots standing on milk crates feeling like a delicate wonderful housewife. I want to go home, really, I do.

So by mistake I have made myself into PAT BENATAR picture proof later, bring your cameras and eyes to Cool Beans today between 3-10 to see for yourself.

Yesterday was sort of fantastic mostly I guess because of my Warm Weather Mentality, I cannot emphasize enough how this changes EVERYTHING. I went to Cool Beans before school with Dave as we Do Now, he got the Constantinople blend which wasn't Constantinawesome enough for him I suppose. I thought about writing more poetry. I thought about being a poetry LOSER (with confidence). Ry made me a sandwich for lunch. I went to Cool Beans after school because secretly I adore everybody I work with and (Odwalla berry smoothies). I went to the thrift store to look for cool toys, there were no cool toys but ugly ceramic bunny things. I went back to Cool Beans made my mother an apple spiced chai and some sandwiches and peaced the fuck out, went to H&M with my mom WITHOUT A JACKET ON and sort of lifted my arms all the time feeling what wasn't COLD WIND weighing them down, I grinned quietly and felt no consequences of anything at all the entire time. I got pants. A shirt. Almost bought so many japanese things. It was STILL LIGHT OUT at 6:30 when I drove home feeling pretty awesome thinking about not wearing a jacket ever again, I was seriously considering that. I had a picnic with Ry in the semi-dark, not the frosty kind but the bright kind, on some bench. We shared a bag of Cool Beans chips. Basically he and I are starting a synthpop duo.

It is 5th period I want to cut my hair I am itchingto cut my hair right now. I have a single dread beneath the pink which is now soft and sort of loosely curling, like NATURALLY, my hair feels natural again and I will keep it that way. No more teasing. I have work in 50 minutes until 10PM today, if someone visits me around 6ish I will have an excuse to have a nice dinner break. As in, not rushed and full of Job.

In quiet horror today I pulled a pink clump of brittle hair out of the side of my head, underneath healthier-feeling hair and carefully placed it out the window of my Spanish class while we were watching Evita. Today I am buying things at the mall, things that are HEALTHY for ME like MUSIC and SYNTHETIC HAPPINESS. My little sequins are in every building in the area. I threw up at work 3 times yesterday. I want to take pictures right now.
