happy halloween, fuckaahhs

why does the finger hurt more now that the stitches are out? very bizarre.

half door tonight to satiate my craving for guiness with dan, et al... as well as watch face for radio. oh hey, that means i get to see jim sargent too. w00t!

starting a new medication tonight too to help get my circadian rythyms back on track (i.e. cure my insomnia by fixing my biological clock). kind of excited, because that means no more sleepless nights. kind of sad because that takes away from my vampire mystique ;)

be safe tonight, kids.

weekend update:

first things first: its curently 1:12am. i have to wake up or work at 5am. love it. yay insomnia?

friday: went to kristen's house, where i drank me some beers, played me some beer pong (where i dominated in singles, thank you very much). got to drink with the lovely ladies, who i've pretty much neglected for like 6 months. yay work. saw scottie, which was a welcome treat since its been like 4 years since last we drank together. was supposed to shove off to jena's party too, but that fell through... some drama is too racy even for this modest little blog.

saturday: missed kelley's bridal shower because, well, i suck at life. went to justin and joanne's wedding inwolcott, which was the PERFECT wedding. the ceremony lasted maybe 15 minutes tops, then it was on to prime rib and an open bar. oh, and did i mention that our tanle was right next to the open bar? or, and that i dont think ive had more fun with lydia in years. every single one of their friends kept asking her where the ring was, much to dan's chagrin. loved it.

sunday: worked. woohoo.

so yeah, its been a good weekend. hopefully this week wont kick my ass, but we'll see about that. i'm already kicking off the 70 hour work week off on the right foot by not going to sleep for my day tomorrow. ooh and stitches out tomorrow, w00t! =)


i've got the will to drive myself sleepless...

"GYYAARRRRRR motherland!"



at some point last night i went from just a simple pirate to a russian coommunist pirate.
more details to follow. not enough time right now... i've got to shove off to kelley's bridal shower and then justin and joanne's wedding. in the pouring rain.

you know, sun cultures like the aztecs, mayans, and even the egyptians (some of the most advances cultures of human civilization, but we'll delve into that one another time) considered rain to not only be a blessing, but a sign of fertility from the gods themselves. so... really, every couple should be so lucky as to have it rain on their wedding day. its a good sign. try convincing the bride of that though.

for those of you that havent heard about the excitement of my week:

monday: woken at 4am by ridiculous argument. c'est la vie. at least i was opening that day. car overheats on way home from work, 1 mile from house. damn.

tuesday: car fixed. i am now -$450 on a car that i'm probably going to sell/trade in by year's end anyway

wednesday: blow our level 2 spending budget at work by slicing my finger. 8 stitches required. thank god for lauren in the ER with me. lessons learned: dont be a dumbass and wear a cut glove. ger.

worked the rest of the week (shocker)

saturday: apparently missed carl's halloween extravaganza by our liasons being 30 minutes early. but hey, at the end of the day, i met some fabulous people. and fabulous people are what it's all about. =)

that about covers the excitement that is my daily life. on that note, i've just recieved a phonecall requesting my presense at the west hartford tucc, as sarah is feeling under the weather, so they need another manager to run the shift. i agreed, but only because i strongly desire the overtime monies. after all, if im ever going to trade in the grandma whip, gotta start somewhere

i had to share this.... too entertaining.

TheKeithRichards: i dont know if im ever gonna give up weed completly, but so many people (especially girls for some reason) have problems with guys saying that, cuz they wanna have kids and they dont want a husband that smokes pot i guess lol

StringBn29: and im cool with it
StringBn29: as long as it doesnt interfere with his daily life, whatever
TheKeithRichards: ur husband? what are u engaged? lol
StringBn29: HAHA yeah, NO
TheKeithRichards: it just sounded weird like that lol
StringBn29: yeah, it did when i read it back
StringBn29: but im serious!
TheKeithRichards: why cant more girls be like you?!?!
TheKeithRichards: im actually serious lol
StringBn29: [...] more girls arent like me because most girls dont smoke the copious amounts of weed it takes to be so blase about the whole thing
TheKeithRichards: true
TheKeithRichards: and usually the ones that do i find are bitches or reallllllly fat
TheKeithRichards: lol
StringBn29: hahahahah
TheKeithRichards: watch out tho julz, u might be the stoners best catch, ur gonna have to carry weed just to distract all the guys so u can make ur getaway
StringBn29: HAHAHA awww keith, thats the sweetest thing ive heard in weeks! :-)TheKeithRichards: well what kinda meanies are u hangin out with? lol

i see no sense maintaing hope on something that will, at the end of the day, continue to hurt you, despite what its best intentions may be, and will never make you as happy as you can be without the weight bearing down on you.

if i bent like you said was best
would that change a thing?
if i spent myself 'til nothings left
would you still leave me here?

you're so sorry about it all
now that it's over
should i thank you for that dear?
you're so sorry about it all
and i hope you'll always be

it's all wrong
all wrong

Good night, farewell
Is this everything you wanted?
Is this everything you wanted now?

im not sure if it's the over-exhasution, the smell in the new room, feeling pensive about opening glastonbury tomorrow, sleeping in a made bed as opposed to a scrumpled mess of sheets and blankets, or any number of factors not previously mentioned, but i cannot fucking sleep

this normally would not be problematic, but, as previously noted, i'm opening glastonbury tomorrow morning. considering i've never even worked in ths restaurant, let alone opened it, i'm not quite sure what to expect. oh, and i have to leave my house by 5:30am just to make sure i get there on time... which means waking up by 4:45am... which means my alarms are going off at 4am. i'm sure you probably see my dilemma now about this whole sleeplessness thing

on a completely unrelated note: i feel like i'm pregnant... which would be nothing short of divine conception. i'm all bloated, and my stomach is pinging so much it feels like there's something punching me from the inside out. quite uncomfortable.

another unrelated note: i'm going to a wedding in a few weeks! friends of lydia, dan, and pete's. should be a fun time
