Mid week
July 29, 2009 at 7:47 pm | In Life | Leave a CommentWell this will be brief as I’m tired of typing for 8 hours straight. I’ve been racing through my work in order to get it finished on time for the attorneys who need the files. I’m still producing quality work product but not dicking around like others are. So many people are slacking off and it pisses me off to no end. They just want the money and while I understand that, I’m not going to not do my job for more money.
My roommate leaves tomorrow! for the weekend! yay. every night this week I’ve come home, looking forward to my time and she has the tv on full blast. And has the a/c on with the window open. Soooo stupid!!
No decisions have been made. Except I want to move out of this place ASAP. I’ve been looking at apartments in Seattle and they are so nice and sooooo much cheaper. But then I think about leaving the beach and craziness and In ‘n Out and I get confused. Sucks balls y’all.
I didn’t go to church last night because I was too tired and the cute boy was THERE!!! I’m so mad at myself for not sucking it up. Argh!!
One more week of work. Icandoit, Icandoit….must repeat!
Lazy sunny day
July 26, 2009 at 3:19 pm | In Life | Leave a CommentI saw the Ugly Truth last night. It was pretty funny, but pretty raunchy as well. I couldn’t believe some of the some that they said. And my boy Gerry is smoking hot. Man. I would do anything for that man. Anything.
Today I’ve just been enjoying the laziness that Sunday brings. I went grocery shopping, slept in and will probably attend church tonight, followed by small group.
Things continue to piss me off about my roommate. I threw away an old eyeliner because it gave me an eye infection. Now it was a Chanel eyeliner and it pained me to throw it away not even half used, but it was the only thing I kept after my last two eye infections, and after wearing it the other day, my eye has been red. So she takes it out of the garbage, asks me if I meant to throw it away (it was in the garbage, hello) and I explained yes, I did and why. I looked on her desk and there it is. Fine, get an eye infection stupid. I don’t care. And then she has the nerve to criticize me for skipping church this morning. Ok, but living in sin is fine with God. Now I don’t mean that to sound that way, but if you believe what we believe, living together before marriage is frowned upon. If you’re going to do it, I’m not going to judge you. Whatever. Not my business. But don’t throw stuff in my face and then blatantly do something that you’re embarrassed about (she hid it from her parents, sister and friend when they respectively visited). GAh! I seriously can’t take the girl much longer. I need to move out. I don’t think this is a healthy living situation and I’m at my wits end. Oh and right now, she has her tv on full blast and I can hear it through her closed door, over my tv and the a/c.
The week ahead promises early mornings, work and a hefty paycheck at the end. Oh and the Bachelorette finale is on! Yay.
Working stiff
July 25, 2009 at 7:09 pm | In Life | Leave a CommentSo I survived another week of mindless work. It wasn’t too bad. Its nice having the girl who I used to be friends with and who I am now again I guess to sit next to and to talk to. The work is a bit more interesting. I just hope it ends soon for the sake of my left wrist which is aching every night. But the money part is always welcome
It’s been pretty warm all week and since I’ve been locked inside all day, I’ve missed the scalding part of the day which is fine by me. I plan on lying by the pool as soon as this job is over just to keep up the tan that I got a few weeks ago.
Still no decision about moving home. All I know is that I want to move out of here NOW. My roommate is the most self-involved person I’ve ever met. And I’ve met a lot of people in my 29 years. I’ve had about 25 roommates/housemates, plus family. I’ve lived in a foreign country. I’ve attended three schools–two colleges and law school. I’ve worked with some awful people. But still, I’ve never met anyone like her. It just boggles my mind. And everyone who I know who I tell stuff she does to, agrees in disbelief. It’s remarkable really. That being said, I really don’t want to move home with my parents. For a short period, that’s fine. But not long term. I couldn’t take it.
So my prayer and hope this week is that a place will be prepared for me. If thats home in Seattle, ok. If its here, ok. I just want something to happen. I need to break out of this place I’m in soon. All I want is a house and husband. Someday right/
I’m off to see the Ugly Truth, starring the hottest man alive. Gerard Butler, yum!
What to do, what to do.
July 18, 2009 at 2:56 pm | In Life | 3 CommentsSo I started my temp job Thursday and it’s awful. Two weeks of doing this is going to be really hard. It’s basically data entry and staring at a computer all day. Very mind-numbing and tiring. BUT. It is money and for that I’m grateful.
I’ve decided to go home for a visit in a few weeks. I really need to figure out if that’s where I want to be. I’ve been doing a lot of thinking and talking to people about it and I’m not totally clear on what I should do. I don’t think it’s going to be an easy decision to make.
No boy sightings
July 15, 2009 at 6:33 pm | In boys | Leave a CommentSo the hot guy at church wasn’t there last night. Boo.
Why wasn’t I born a wizard?
July 15, 2009 at 6:32 pm | In Life, Major City, Random | 2 CommentsTags: Friends, homesick
So it’s been a few days since I posted. Hmmm…let’s see.
Friday night I went to the worst ghetto trashiest club down the street with my friend J. She lives down the block from me and we’ve always talked about going. They had free cover and free vodka til 10 so we made it time for that. Turns out that we ended up being the only non-Hispanic people there. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, it just is a bit overwhelming. And we got lots of glares too. So we hightailed it out of there around 10:45 and headed across the street to the little bar that we’ve gone a few times that is very chill and much more our speed. At least we know now what its like inside…
Saturday I picked up my friend E and we did touristy stuff like shopping, sightseeing and then house-sat for my cousin’s husband. We went out that night and met Richard Greico of 21 Jump Street fame. He was very strange indeed and heavily intoxicated and possibly on drugs.
Sunday was church, more driving around, the beach and 2 hours of traffic. All in 100 degree weather. It was fun but very draining. I dropped her off at home and headed home to watch the finale of Harpers Island. I was totally righton who the second killer was and it was so creepy!
Yesterday I watched Bruno which was disgusting, vulgar and a complete waste of 1.5 hours. Ugh.
Today I saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and it really made me sad I wasn’t born a wizard. I mean, how cool would that be? I would love to live at Hogwarts, but wouldn’t want to deal with all the darkness that HP has to.
Tomorrow I start a temp job for 2 weeks. I’m really thankful because I need the money to pay rent and bills, but ugh, I’m not looking forward to waking up at the crack of dawn and staring at a computer all day. Plus the commute and working with a bunch of randoms. But its only 2 weeks.
Its weird. Monday my mom told me I would have to move home because of the lack of funds. I balked and resisted and prayed and then I got this job. But now, I kinda want to move home. How screwed up is that? I love my friends here and like the city (except the traffic of course) and know that I wouldn’t be happy back in Seattle, but I miss my parents a lot. And my cat. And my nephew. So its hard. I’ve said it once–I feel like a kid of divorced parents. Pulled in both directions. It would be nice to see my little cousins but they’re off in Canada until next Friday. I don’t know. It’s just hard.
Beach hottie
July 8, 2009 at 3:58 pm | In Life, boys | Leave a CommentSo last night my church group thingy had a bonfire at the beach. It was really fun. We hung out, talked and had s’mores. Um and how come I haven’t had a s’more in like a decade? They are the best things ever. period. So while we were there this hot guy who’ve I never met before came up to talk to us. I don’t want to get overly excited and go into all the details because I always do and then it never works out, but I will say that I can’t wait to go back to church next week to talk to this guy again. He is that cute and smart and well-traveled. *sigh.
I’m heading out in a bit to see my friend E. She is working here for the next couple weeks and I’m SO excited to see her.
Still not sure what to do about a job. I’ve almost been here a year! And I’m in a way, still in the same place I was then. Single, no job, sorta dependent on my parents. But I have had some wonderful experiences and made fabulous friends and experienced the best city on earth as a native/resident. Now if I could just find a full-time job, move out and meet a nice guy (who pays for my drinks), I’d be set.
Lame boy and no voice
July 5, 2009 at 8:40 pm | In Life, boys | 3 CommentsHappy belated 4th of July everyone! The end of the long weekend is upon us. Let’s recap the last few days shall we?
Thursday night was my date. We met at the pre-arranged bar at 8pm and stayed there til about 11:45ish. The conversation was fairly decent. I had to ask him a lot of questions to keep it flowing. He was pretty nervous and made some weird remarks and barked short laughs here and there. He was shorter than I remembered and even dorkier than I remembered. I had a shot before I left to calm the jitters and a few drinks at the bar. When we ordered the first round, he gave the bartender his credit card to hold. I offered to pay for mine and he said we’d figure it out at the end. Well, at the end of the night when he went to close his tab, I pulled out my credit card and again, offered to pay for my drinks. He didn’t refuse. The bartender gave me a look and I handed over my card in disbelief. Now, I’m not a girl who expects boys to buy her everything. But I do expect that if a guy asks you out on a date, he can at least pay for one drink. Every person that I have recounted the story to, agrees with me on this. When we left, he just walked off and I waited for the valet to bring me my car. Weird again. Then he texted me that he didn’t remember me being such a looker. Huh. He called me the next night at around 10pm. My voice was gone so I didn’t answer. Then he called me yesterday again and I was driving so I didn’t answer. He left a message suggesting that I cancel my 4th plans to hang out with him. Uh really dude?
Based on information that I learned during our drinks, his behavior at the bar and after, I decided he was not the guy for me. I texted him that I was interested in someone else and he wrote back to let him know if it doesn’t work out. Don’t hold your breath guy.
So anyways, other than that, I lost my voice Friday. I think its because my friend who is a nurse and worked with a patient who has SWINE FLU! and then hung out with me, also had a sore throat/lost her voice and gave me whatever she has. Thanks!
But I had to rally Friday to hang out with my little cousin all day. He is so sweet and cute! My cousin took him and his brother to Canada for three weeks yesterday so I won’t see any of them for a while.
Last night I went to the LA Galaxy game with my friend R and we had a great time. They had a fireworks spectacular afterwards that was awesome.
Today I went grocery shopping and have been watching tv all day. Trying to regroup for the week ahead.
My roommate has been gone since Friday and returns tomorrow. It’s been so nice having peace and quiet.
I’m really excited because my friend E is coming to LA to work for 2 weeks and we’ll get to hang out a lot!
That’s about it…
