hi


Does anyone even use blurty anymore? Just curious. I have way more journals than I possibly need. Oh well. I should just delete this, but I doubt I ever will.

How nice....


California is burning down. That kind of sucks. Hopefully all of my friends are safe out there. I feel bad for all the people who lost their homes, and the ones that lost their lives. If only people would stop being retarded. Apparently 2 of the fires were set by arsonists, and one was set by a lost hunter trying to get help. The hunter I can understand, but those arsonists... I hope when they are caught they are set on fire. That's what they deserve.

Headache today. Not fun. But I am determined to feel better and go to bellydance class tonight.

110!


Happy 110th Birthday Lillian Gish!!!

I was just filling out an online resume thing, and I got kicked off the internet right in the middle of it!! How annoying!! Well, I suppose I will type it up in Word first and then just cut and paste to make life easier.

$$$


I need to be rich. There are so many beautiful trinkets in the new Lenox catalog that I simply must have. Not that I have any place to put them. Which is another reason I need to be rich. Or at least better off than I am now. I'm beyond broke at the moment. I need to get my finances back on track if I want to move. Otherwise I may as well just drop off the face of the earth. Or go all homicidal. That might make me feel better.

Hmmm


Wow. I haven't posted in here in a while huh? Be glad you didn't have to endure the Duran Duran freak out I had on Live Journal this weekend. ha ha!! I saw them Friday night at the Fleet Center in Boston. All 5 original members. And anyone that knows me understands that I have a mild obsession with Duran Duran. And the fact that Andy and Roger are back in the band just rocks my world to no end. So basically, I have been on a Duran Duran high for 3 days now. And the fact that Simon mentioned they are coming back in November just sends me to the moon!! Though I haven't seen a date listed anywhere yet. Not to mention the fact that John Taylor called me up and said he was leaving his wife for me. (And then I woke up, but hey, I gotta dream!) They all looked so incredibly hot. I wish I got a better view of Roger, but there was a pole in my way. But I saw everyone else pretty well. If I leaned a little to the left I could see Roger. I'm soooo glad he crawled out from under his rock and got back with the guys. Andy too. The band just wasn't the same after they left. They were still great, but just not the same. And Warren Cucurullo did nothing for me. I'm so glad he's gone. :op

Damn these pumpkins!!


You know those nasty candy pumpkins that are kind of made out of the same stuff as candy corn?? Well, I am addicted to them. I can't stop eating them, yet they make me so nauseous. I need a 12 step program. "Nasty Pumpkins Anonymous".

I had dinner with my friend Jen on Friday night and she gave me a bonsai tree kit, to grow my own bonsai. I hope I don't kill it. I tend to kill things like that. Though my green thumb is improving a bit. Most of the time I just look at a plant and it dies. But I've managed to revive the plants at work, which were dead and brown when I first started working here. Now they are flourishing nicely.

Jen also mentioned a possible opportunity for me in New York. I'm not going to talk about it until I know it is definite. But it is something that I would put LA on hold for. My friend Melissa mentioned some friends of hers in Astoria that might take me in as a roommate. Does anyone in the NYC area have any info about what life is like in Astoria?? Just incase I end up there. Nothing is definite. It is all still just a flicker in my mind. But if this stuff does work out, I'd like to know what to expect. I don't really want to give up my car. I know having a car in New York is dumb, but I just bought it in January. If I could find an apartment with a parking space I would jump for joy.

death & drag queens


Rest In Peace Robert Palmer. :o(

I love drag queens. I went to a drag show last night and it rocked. I'm in love with one of them now. Well, not really in love, but he/she was being awfully flirty. And we know what a sucker I am for flirty pretty boys.

Why is it not 5:00 yet??

I'm glad I can swim.


The rain is coming down in sheets!! It's crazy!! It's raining so hard that I am going to need a submarine to get home from work!! This is nuts!! I mean, it's cool, but still nuts!! Ooohhh, I think I just saw a school of guppy swim by!!

I hope you all are having a good day. I am pretty much. My boss actually said I was doing a really good job. Well, he didn't say it to my face. He told Maria, and she told me. God forbid he ever compliment me personally. But it's still nice to hear.

Hopefully it won't be raining like this tonight. I have to go to a wake.

I can't stop burping to save my life!!! *burp* Nasty!!

Busy


I just realized that I have to be somewhere every night this week. Ugh. Just kill me now. I'm tired just thinking about it. Tonight I have bellydance class, tomorrow I have to go a wake (my uncle Phil died), Wednesday night I have film class, Thursday night is a friend's bachelorette party (which I am organizing and therefore can't blow off), and Friday night I am having dinner with a friend I haven't seen in a long time. Ay caramba. Hopefully I won't be a walking mental case by the end of the week, without any me time.

FRIDAY


I'm so glad it's friday. I'm exhausted. Tonight I have to go to a memorial service for my friend's brother, who died at the ripe old age of 26 from Cancer. So sad.

Apparently one of the librarians here at beautiful Harvard is suing the university for descrimination because she keeps getting overlooked for promotions because she is "too sexy". Whatever. She apparently has 2 masters degrees from Cornell and is no dummy. But just because she is not all conservative and frumpy they treat her like crap. Plus she is black which just adds to the problem. So she is suing for racial and sexual discrimination. And who can blame her if what she says is true.

Well, I'm hungry so it's time to eat some lunch.

Class


My class last night was fun. Although some of the people in it are annoying, but what do you expect at Harvard. Harvard = annoying people. No big deal really, just a few people that feel the need to over-analyze everything. And one that likes to brag about the dumbest shit. NO ONE CARES!!!! GET OVER YOURSELF!!! But anyway, the teacher is cool. We watched those 2 D.W. Griffith films I mentioned in my last post, "Muskateers of Pig Alley" with Lillian Gish and "The New York Hat" with Mary Pickford. We also watched a film Billy Bitzer made 7 months after the opening of the first New York Subway called "Interior of the New York Subway". It wasn't a story, it was just film of a train going through the tunnel and stopping at the different stations. Nothing too exciting, but it was basically done to show motion and light. And back then it was pretty exciting because subways were new. Next week we watch Charlie Chaplin. And then we work our way up to Spike Lee by the end of the semester.

D.W. Griffith Meets Hello Kitty


I start my film class tonight. And the first films we are viewing are "Muskateers of Pig Alley" and "The New York Hat" by my man D.W. Griffith. This class is going to be so awesome. It's called New York City On Film. The screenwriting class I wanted to take filled up the first day of registration, so I decided to take this class instead.

Also, I really need to go here: http://www.sanrio.co.jp/english/harmony/harmony.html

Why?? Because I'm a dork. And love Sanrio.

hmmm...


This day has been completely insane. First I wake up to the sad news about John Ritter and Johnny Cash. Then I get squished to death on the train but a skinny guy. How does someone so skinny take up so much room??? Then work has been super busy trying to get everything ready for classes to start. Then I realize I have a crush on that professor in Architecture again. I thought that was over with. But I ran into him in the elevator and I decided I like him again. And now the day is over, and it feels good. I can't wait to go home and put my feet up.

Monday is Blahday


Oy. What a draggy ass-crack of a day. Mondays are no fun. No fun at all I tell ya. Last night was very weird for me. Probably because I was just so bloody tired. I came home from working at the cruise ship, and I just passed out on my bed and that was the end of me! I woke up a couple of times and watched a bit of tv, but otherwise I was just off in Never Never Land.

The cruise passengers were less than thrilled that we were sending them to Canada instead of Bermuda. But hey, Bermuda is demolished at the moment. So what can we do? We tried to send them to the Bahamas but Tropical Storm Henri is twirling around down there. So it's Canada or nothing.

One of the guys that works on the ship is soooo cute. I don't know his name, but he is the one that sets up the computers for us at the check-in. There are a lot of cuties that work on that ship! I always have fun flirting with them when I cruise on it. And now that I work there every week I actually get to know some of them. Go me!!

Ok


I'm feeling better today. I'm glad I went to that seminar. It helped my attitude. The speaker, Lynn Mitschke, touched on everything I have been feeling, and it was almost like she was talking directly to me. It was weird. I almost was going to blow it off. But I ended up going, and sure enough it was everything I needed to hear. So tonight I'm going out with Tracy, and I'm going to talk to people and get some "no"s. Because the more no's I get, the closer I get to a "yes". I have to stop being afraid of the word "no". The people that are successful in this business are the people that got the most no's. Why?? Because they talked to the most people. So there. It's settled. As of right now, I'm back on track with Market America. I believe in this business, it's just hard to convince other people how great this business is, because the whole world is just one big giant bowl on negative thinking. Everything is a scam. Everything is gonna fail. Nothing like this ever works. Well, if that's true, then why are so many people in Market America making tons of money?? Why is this the most successful one-to-one marketing company on the planet?? Why do we have celebrities now getting involved, such as rapper JaRule, and football hall of famer Dennis Franks?? Actually, Dennis has been in for a long time. But JaRule just got in right before Convention. I just have to stop letting all the people in the MLM Toilet flush me down. I have to flush them down instead. From now on, only positive thinking is allowed.

Greetings and Salivations!


I'm bloody tired. I was up watching the Latin Grammy's last night. I don't know who half of those people are, but Carlos Ponce was presenting an award, and he's a hottie, so I had to watch. Mmmmm.... Carlos. Watch out Billy Zane! You have some competition!! ha ha!!

Not much else to talk about. I'm going out with Tracy on Saturday night to Matrix. We are going to shake our booties, and have some fun. FUN!!! Yeah.

I am drinking Sprite mixed with coffee at the moment. Interesting flavor.

It's about time!!


Way to go Duran Duran! Not only do all 5 of you finally get off your lazy asses and DO something together, but you also managed to get yourself a Lifetime Acheivement Award at the VMA's. Good for you!! And yes, you all still are quite boinkable.

*boink boink*

I will be seeing them on October 3rd at MixFest. Right on.

Can you believe it is going to be September on Sunday? Where does the time go?? I do love the fall, but I am not looking forward to winter. According to the Farmer's Almanac we are supposed to get buried this year. Lot's of snow, and lots of me being grumpy until spring.

HOLY CHRIST!!! I have an 80's station on (an internet station) and they are play Adam Ant!!! I'm going to DIE!! I love this man sooooo much!!!!! "Strip" Oh yeah, Adam. I'll strip for you. WooHoo!!!

Pardon that little outburst. ..... ahem......

Where was I?? Uh, anyway, winter. Yeah. It sucks.

Happy Monday


I can't even believe it is Monday again. The weekends are much tooooo short. Of course, the fact that I work every Sunday and only have one day off to relax doesn't help. But I like my Sunday job, so I see no reason to give it up. It ends in October anyway when the cruise season ends. For those of you that don't know, I work for Norwegian Cruise Lines on Sundays as a check-in agent for their terminal in Boston. The season only runs from May to October. I enjoy my job. I wish it was my full time job instead of sitting here bored Monday through Friday. Too bad the ship only comes in on Sundays. The people I work with there are SOOOO nice. And they finally trained me on Non-US check-in, which they have been meaning to do for quite some time. So now I know more, so if I want to work for NCL as a check-in agent in Los Angeles they won't even have to train me. Hopefully I will be able to get a job doing that out there. I don't know what their cruise schedule is, but it's something I am definitely going to look into.

E.T. Phone Home


I need to go buy a new phone. Mine is almost dead. It makes this god awful humming/buzzing noise the whole time I am trying to have a conversation. I don't know what happened to it. Perhaps all that lightning we had last week did it in. It wouldn't be the first time things in our house went kaput due to lightning. Which is weird considering all of our powerlines are under ground. I was going to go phone shopping tonight, but I'm feeling rather lazy so I'm thinking Saturday. Of course, my caller ID isn't working either and I need that. Yes, I admit, I screen my calls. I can't help it. I have some friends that call me 100 times a week but have nothing to say. So I don't answer my phone very much anymore. Maybe I should just have my phone shut off and just use my cell phone instead. Even though my business cards have my home phone number. Eh... I'll just keep my phone I guess. All these decisions!! :op

I swear my boss shits out paper. He's gone all summer. He comes back for 4 days and there is more filing to do in these 4 days than I think I did all last semester combined!! I don't understand why he feels the need to save every single little piece of scrap paper and junk mail he musters up. I could dump it all in the recycle bin and he would never know it. Of course that would be when he would be looking for something and freaking out like a maniac.

I have a very strong desire to take a nice long walk today. I think I shall. The weather is beautiful, and I am full of energy for some strange reason. I'm looking for a good excuse to get my butt moving. So what better excuse than to enjoy the beautiful Cambridge scenery on such a fine day?? Why am I in such a good mood? Who the hell knows. I just feel good today. Even though I spilled coffee all over me and I am covered in coffee stains. That is ok. I think I will go exploring during my lunch hour.
