tonight i will go to san fran to see sufjan stevens

aren't i the coolest?

i need a sordid secret blog.  hmmmmmm

yikes!  theres a crazy cat in my apartment complex that screeches at night.

i have never experienced this before.  there were two cat screams a minute ago.  what is the cat doing?  does another cat either not like him, or like him very much?

i don't really get it.  but it sometimes scares me.

see, i had to keep the great music a secret so that i could suprise ben with it!  but now he knows, so i'll tell ya'll.

sufjan stevens
  is
    so
     cooools yo

check out "greetings from MICHIGAN, the great lakes state"

i found some new cool music, but i think i'm going to hoard it all to myself right now.  (because i'm mean like that)

its been in the high 80s and low 90s here in san jose.  i wonder how long i'll hold out before turning on the air conditioning... i hear it gets hotter in august and september.

carolyn and i spent an evening eating dessert in a funky all night diner, cruising the dark streets of san jose and rocking out to the music, and then racing cars at dave and busters.  a very nice night, except that we had to get up early for church in the morning

carolyn sends me forwards.  she also isn't coming to the danielson concert cause she hates them.  carolyn is a bad person,  even though she is visiting me right now.

also, what is up with that new nickelback song?  the one with the girl with her pants around her feet?  i think she has a drug problem.

we saw bourne supremacy tonight.  veryvery good- better than i expected, probably better than the first one.

we're going to the garlic festival tommorow with the montana man who brought me gatorade when i was pukey.  should be fun.

garlic ice cream anyone?

okay guys.  there's going to be some awesomeness the weekend of september 18th.  all you fun danielson famile loving people out there- daniel (brother danielson to you) will be at the bottom of the hill in san francisco!

i expect it to approach the mythical sunday school room with 15 people in santa barbara danielson concert that ben and i went to a year or so ago.  if you were a loser and didn't come then, you need to come now.  (matt's coming.  he's cool with the falsetto.)

i like it when people see things my way.  cause those 21 dollars worth of finance charges on my credit card SO did not seem fair to me.   called them up, and now i am 21 dollars richer.  thank you banking lady- you made my day.

i was very proud last week that i was 130 pounds.  then i got sick and lost 5 pounds in two days

so yay for tempura parties!  i am back to 128.  :o)  i didn't know i could eat that many fried vegetables and shrimpies.

of course my ultimate goal weight would be the elusive 138.  ah, yes.  "normal."  i should make some sort of random goal.  138 at 6 pm on christmas day.  i better get the truffles and the dumbells.

if only my blog were as useful as my foot. happy second birthday, blog! 

i like that i am the only website on the whole internet to contain the phrase "university hospital of cinccinati." 

i like people who can't spell, and then come to my website from search engines because they share my inferior powers

instead of sleeping, i did this. i'm so annoyed with myself. 
 
by the way... got a digital camera for graduation.  look forward to more pictures.  thanks to tony pierce for alerting me to the awesomeness of this "hello" photo thing. 

in the midst of all the drama and the puking, i never said anything about my classroom!
 
well, the classrooms are tinytiny.  and windowless.  they do, however, have walls.  it looks like i will not be in one of the tiny windowless classrooms, though.  i should get a portable!
 
now, normally i have a very dim view of portables, but when the portable is much nicer looking inside and waaaaay bigger, portables are happy places to be.  also, the whiteboard isn't too obscenely low.  (i have a problem with that oftentimes.)

i have stomach flu!  and it really really sucks to live alone and be sick like this.  i started feeling a little bit better.  i'm hoping that i'll be okay tommorow.

its ironic how the ommisions of the past can cause so much hurt and misunderstanding for so long.
 
indirectly, i'm the cause of an acquantince's jail term, subsequent meth addiction, and dissapearance. 
 
not that i could blame myself or anything like that.  its just.... ironic.  strange.  complicated and tangled and dark.
 
hearing stories from the person who was once so important to me and still is.   stories that are so much worse than what i imagined, but that have better parts too.   ironic.  coke and church.  fear.  flashbacks.  just... shit i don't deal with in my happy go lucky elementary school world.
 
if only this conversation happened in february 2002.

in thirteen hours i get to see my new classroom. i really hope that it has lots of storage, but the things i really want are walls and a window. we'll see if i get those or not. (i'm not being facetious. there really might not be walls between the classrooms, or a window to the outdoors)

um, yeah. i have always hated wendy's but today i discovered that in less than one minute i can order a jr bacon cheeseburger, pay my 99 cents, get it, and drive away. wendys is only a couple hundred yards from my apartment, but i can eat it before i get there too.

i dreamed that my ex was a transvestite named spice. and that's all i'm going to say about that.

i am the aloe queeeeeeeeeen. half my clothes have gummy green stuff on them. at times my skin has taken on a greenish cast. (so why do they have to dye the stuff green, huh? because it looks more "natural"?)

sunburn... well, my nose and forehead are peeling the tiniest bit, and most of my chest is still BRIGHT red. i thought that in 4.5 days it would be a little better. anyways, select portions of my shoulders and collarbones are now what we would call tan. my biggest tan in 4 years. (since the last sunburn)

thomas taught me how to play pool last night. i did a decent job of it, too. :o) too bad i am no longer a calpolyian... they have pool tables and bowling in the same room!

i went to the warped tour for free yesterday and i have a SUNBURN. my first real sunburn in four years. ay yi yi.

what??? its "nobody DOESN'T like sara lee"??
i always thought it was "nobody DOES IT like sara lee"

i'm so confused.

Gidge: poor thomas. if only i was slightly more promiscuose (can't even spell it)
Hobbes: yah and you cant be somethign that you cant spell :-)
Gidge: yes i can
Gidge: i couldn't spell friend until 11th grade
Hobbes: ha ha

Gidge: maybe we can have an affair someday
Gidge: of course, i'd need to spell promiscuous right the first time. (took me four times just then.)
Hobbes: ha ha
Hobbes: aint nothing wrong with an affair
Hobbes: i predict you are married before me though, so it might have to be a long time
Gidge: well, only one person needs to be married to make an affair
Gidge: you'd be my mister. (not mistress)
Hobbes: ok!
Hobbes: that works
Hobbes: cuz you will so be married young
Hobbes: all elementary school teachers are
Gidge: ah, yes
Gidge: except the requisite school hag
Gidge: with the saggy arms
Hobbes: right
Hobbes: i dont see that being you
Gidge: no, i'm too much of a hot chick
Gidge: besides, i could nab you
Gidge: and force you into a quickie marriage
Hobbes: you think so?
Gidge: for the sex
Gidge: yes
Gidge: i think so
Hobbes: ha ha true
Hobbes: hmmmm

if you don't hear from me for a couple days, its probably because i'm locked in my bathroom.

or in my bedroom. but again, that would be easier because i'd have a phone and entertainment.

i guess all my doorknobs are on the fritz. hopefully (hopefully) they will be replaced tommorow, before i can accidentaly do something dumb, like shut the door whilst i am using the ladies room.

he actually emailed me, and seems to not hate me anymore. what a relief. i don't like having anyone who hates me.

but anyways...

i used to dislike baked beans but now i think they're tasty!

so he showed up online on my IM list for the first time in two years. who knows why. i said hi... told him i live here now. he hasn't responded. i dont get it, dont get it at all. why not say hi, dammit? i'm not satan, and we're not fourteen.

i now have dial up internet set up at my apartment, so expect more posting.

my brother is also here for a visit. :o)
