Ugh picking out flights to Chicago and Baltimore are a pain in the asssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssx23498320984204.
And so are trying to put in new earrings. Grrrrr.
Life has been pretty dull lately. I've just been waiting for school to start in Spring and to go out of town in a month.
It'd be nice to have a job til I go out of town, but I won't hold my breath.
I got one of my eyeball piercings taken out ahem thanks to Orion kneeing me in the face ahem.
Hopefully Gwar on Sunday, even though I HATE HOB.
I really really want to move out already. 2 more months. And 3 more months til my birfday!!!
I have to go to Vegas for my birthday.
OMG I just heard Xmas music on the TV. I fucking love Xmas music.

I'm at Donovan's house. He's at school. He has a beautiful monitor. 23 inches of HD awesomeness. I think I've just realized why he craves expensive things. He just wants the objects around him to reflect how incredible he is! Okay, maybe he just likes having the best of everything...but I think these things reflect how great he is ;)
Some things have happened. I had a reunion with Maribeth. We had a sort of quiet but nasty falling out some months ago. It wasn't necessarily malicious, but it was incredibly hurtful for both of us. Anyway, for all this time I've tried to just ignore it, to try to forget the hole in my life I felt her absence left until it filled itself up. But one night I realized it could never fill itself up, and I couldn't fill it with anything else, and I thought, "what the heck? Life is too short and if I want to see her I will." So we met in a park we used to go to often, and walked and talked for what we didn't realize was hours. I felt no bitterness. I've never been able to hold a grudge. I feel a weight lifted and I think she does, too.
Monday was quite fun. We went on a dark scary railroad track adventure and then ate tasty food around a campfire.
Yesterday after work I read by myself inside of Atlanta Bread Company until Jesse was done with band practice. I then skipped the gym to instead walk around a park with Jesse (I didn't have my proper gym shoes anyway). It was the pleasant kind of cold outside. After the park, we ended up going to Walmart and buying so much bread and cheese and teddy grahams because we are fat/idiots. We ate basically all the bread and cheese and teddy grahams and acted like fools while we awaited Donovan's arrival. Donovan showed up and we watched It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia until we somehow ended up down in Jesse's room: Donovan, Jesse, Justin, and me, lying on top of each other in a pile of Christmas bears (Jesse's bed is covered in Christmas bears).
Donovan and I came back to his placed and crashed. I woke up in the middle of the night in a bad mood because I'd accidentally fallen asleep grumpy and without even saying goodnight. Sometimes I just wake up fretful and teary eyed, like sleeping amplifies every bad feeling until it's crushing me, and I wake up drowning. This morning Donovan held me as we slowly gained consciousness and it's all okay.
Except it's not okay because my stupid SAT scores have still not been received by the college I'm trying to go to! So I finally called the damn school, told them "hey! I had one set of scores sent out about a month ago. They were sent on October 16 according to collegeboard.com. I got nervous, though, that they wouldn't arrive in time so I had another set of scores rush shipped this week. Have any of my scores arrived?" ONLY TO LEARN the school NEVER received ANY scores sent October 16. Collegeboard.com DID NOT send them, at all. Apparently the error was discovered and the Oct 16 scores have been resent this week, so my scores should be accepted late, if my name is on the Oct 16 list. It had better be on that list. They have received no new scores this week, so my "rush" scores aren't there either. I have spent 46 dollars just sending my SAT scores, and I want my money back.

Today I feel really blah...I have got to go to my psychiatrist Wednesday and get him to switch my meds. Although, I'll definitely have to be bummin' at work if I go see him. I'll have to leave early in the morning and won't have time to finish getting ready before I go to work. *sigh*
(To explain, I'm building up a tolerance to my ADD meds & I like to switch to a different one for a while when that happens instead of increasing dosage.)
Van came to see me last night. That was nice, but he doesn't seem to be doing so well mentally lately...he's very stressed out about a certain situation. I tried to encourage him and tell him it's not completely his fault, that he shouldn't feel so bad, but I think he still does. It kind of worries me. He doesn't deserve that.
We did have fun though. He helped me a little in the process of making my Care Bears skirt. It's pretty much done...I just have to sew the bow that will pin on the waist. Then I'll make the accessories: a hair bow and sock toppers. Oh and tote bag!
I posted on nolalolitas. I'm organizing a meet-up. Check it out if you're into lolita and in the area. It's not 'til December.
Now I've got to go get ready for recovery class.

Well, I've just returned home from quite an eventful day/night at work.
Before I got there, Derrick and Luke were burning leaves in the parking lot. Derrick, alone and unaware Luke had put some dry, unburned leaves in the dumpster, disposed of some ashes into the dumpster. He wonders whether it will be alright but when nothing happens for some time he goes back to raking, only to notice later the dumpster is spewing smoke. He tried to put it but this only made the fire spread, and he realized the fire was melting the dumpster's plastic lid. He lifted the lid to get it away from the flames but this sent the flames higher, singing his hair and burning his arms. Jeez, Derrick! Derrick runs in for help and Luke apparently takes his time about getting out there with a bucket, not expecting the inferno he's greeted with. He apparently says something to the effect of "holy shit! There really is a fire!" And the two proceed to put the fire out with countless buckets of water.
Derrick's and Luke's retellings of this were hilarious. Derrick's put me on the floor with laughter.
I gave Chloe a very long piggy back ride (I even rang up a customer with her clinging to my back!). She also gave me catching lessons. I love ten-year-olds!
My first boyfriend, Justin Crider, came in to the store. We had a brief friendly exchange.
Also there was a very angry man screaming and cussing because he dropped his 12 pack of Corona outside and we wouldn't replace it.
Also a stupid ass hole stole Powerade from us =(
AND Derrick caught a pack of thieves who recently stole some expensive tequila from us.
And to top it all off, an older man and a young girl who is obviously in high school (Woodstock High School hoodie on) come in and Derrick lets the girl use the bathroom. He's walking in front of her so he doesn't notice, but I see she is leaning on the bottles she walked by so I knew something wasn't right with her. While she's in the restroom her dad buys something and then leaves to wait for her. She comes out saying "have you seen my dad?" We point her to her dad, she goes over to him, and says
"HEY DID YOU KNOW THIS IS MY DAD?
CAN YOU BELIEEEVVE HE'S GETTING ME DRRRUUNNKK RIGHT NOW?!"
So we just kind of stare, trying not to laugh. Then she's walking around and knocks a bottle over but it doesn't fall to the ground. Then for some reason her dad saw fit to go back outside?
And she said
"THAT'S MY DAD
HE'S HERE NOW
BUT HE WAS GONE FOR A YEAR
I MEAN, CAN YOU CALL THAT A FATHER? A WHOLE YEAR"
And then she COLLAPSES onto the counter CRYING HER HEAD OFF. Derrick goes up to her and rubs her shoulders and asks if she'll be okay. Her dad comes back in and starts dragging her out.
Just before they're out the door, she looks to me and Derrick and shouts
"I LOVE YOU GUYS I'LL SEE YOU NEXT WEEK"

So, back in high school there was a boy in my French class that I decided to ask out.
He told me, "Candy, honestly you kinda creep me out."
I responded by having my friend stab him with a spork. Hahahaaa
Fast forward to now. Guess who just added me on MySpace and asked if I'd be up for watching a couple movies? Yeah. LOL. He said "I was a LOT different then, and, honestly, you were pretty and always made me smile."
XD I might do this movie thing because I'm amused by all this.

Yesterday I bought a new camera to replace my sad broken one. Same camera. I picked it up from Bestbuy today with Donovan. Then I threw a fit because I'm afraid of everything aka driving. Sometimes driving is just the most horrible thing! I'm too old to throw fits. It's okay, though. Donovan kissed me until I felt better and like he'd always love me. I also bought myself some presents.
The presents are Moleskins. I have become obsessed with these magic little books. I bought a three-pack of earthy tan Moleskins which are lined because this beautiful season with all its colorful leaves has made me want to write in a paper journal again. I bought a nice small black Moleskin filled with watercolor paper also.
Jesse and I have decided to become fans of Adam Lambert.
( Watercolor )
I can't wait to take pictures and videos of everything again.

I'm leaving late for work so I can burn a CD. I'm updating livejournal while I burn the CD. Jesse's birthday was a lot of fun. Campfire, candy, good friends.
I just replaced my camera. It was on sale so I bought it and I'm picking it up tomorrow. I hate spending the money but I miss taking pictures. I owe Donovan a lot of money like a loser but he let me put off paying him back so he could get the camera. I think I can still afford to pay you back, though, baby.
I really don't want to go to work I just do not want to go. The weekend was excellent and I can't believe I have to go back to my mediocre life of working a full time job, doing the same day every day five days in a row. I am automated. Credit or Debit?
The CD is done.

(Title's a line from Repo.)
Today I have work, but my friend Brad came over to watch Repo this morning. I LOVE this movie so much. I seriously mean it when I say you should all go rent it. It's amazing. It deserves more popularity.
I even bought the soundtrack.
Brad wants me to do work on the art for his and Chris's first album! I'm excited and nervous. Maybe I'll come up with something that looks nice and get a little recognition. They'd also pay me a portion of the album sales, but I don't care so much about that. I just want something to be proud of again.
Speaking of working on things, I never got to start on the Care Bears outfit yet, but I did fix the puff sleeves on my black lolita blouse...the elastic wasn't tight enough so they didn't puff up. It was okay though, because there wasn't a meet-up Sunday.
I don't know if I mentioned it yet, but I finally finished my quest to watch all the Tenchi series...es. Except for the movies. I still have to watch those. I'm taking a short break to watch the Paradise Kiss anime (the manga is my favorite manga), though.
Well I've got to make this short and go get ready for work in a minute. I really am not looking forward to work today. I won't get off until 11 when I'm used to getting off at 9-9:30ish. At least I get extra moneys, though, right?
