I just showered and am waiting for my hair to dry so I can go to sleep and prepare for the lovely day of seating lots of moms and their families; and explaining to the dumbasses that didn't make reservations but still expect to be sat right away that it's mother's day... we're busy, there is a wait... put in your name if you'd like and go have a drink in the bar while you wait.
Both yesterday and today were Animal Mannequin krew days. Last night went down to cabrillo for a bonfire. Today I was captured for most of the day. We went to git center where Rhea showed me a rad snakeskin covered Soldano. The mo fo cost about 1,600 despite the fact that it doesn't even work. Everybody works at git center now, John Thompson, The Dan, Jacob Maltinsky and of course Merg was pleasent as usual. From there we went to Rhthym and Note where I was introduced to the famous Bob. Lucas bought a Fender Cab for $150. It's purty and vintage. He was somewhat disapointed to find that it only had two 12s, he hoped for 15s. We ate at el Pollo Inka, yummy peruvian food. Saw Edward my faux bro. He recommend the pollo saltado, I didn't understand the french fries though.
Learned a new song...
I was supposed to go to The Bash for movie night. Ladyhawk.
I got tired and needed shower. Sorry.
I ran out of lotion, i used some baby oil... it made my arms kinda shiny.

wtf am I doing up at 2, I have school tomorow. Practice went late so I didn't get home till about 11. Rob and Ronda wrote two new songs. One is Called Brown Bag Killer, it's about explosive shit, lovely. Drank tea, started my french hw (playing catch-up on the assignments i never did).... and i completely lost track of time. At least I have only one class before the sweet sweet weekend.
Oh yeah, my little sister's grandma died today... or now, last night. She had heart attack. My family left for Mexico a couple of hours ago to attend the funeral tomorrow. When I talked to them I could tell my mom and sis had been crying, but it's weird to think about my step-dad crying. Enough... moving on.
Ethan, what is this? Is this a hair doll?
I didn't make that! It fell out of your hair that way.

Françoise Hardy - Comment te Dire Adieu |
] |
The show Sunday went well. The first band got beer poured down their pants and quacamole and salsa thrown all over them... Twas quite funny. Our set went relatively smoothly and i didn't even drop a stick, wahoo that never happens. My mom came and filmed it. The funniest part is drunken Jordan dancing around as he slides through the frame from time to time.
I've been really tired and I've been geting headaches. I tried to place a cause and I think its school. The stress is catching up. Not having a printer makes what should be a simple assignment some crazy find a printer task of emailing my assignment to myself and printing it at either me moms house or at school. Not having my psych books could also be a problem. I wil be incredibly thankful when summer arrives and I can ride around on a beach cruiser ala "Tell me if you've heard this one before," play music and not worry about staying out too late because I have school. Are you guys with me on the beach cruisers, terryn already got hers.
To resolve my car trouble statement of a couple posts back. I got it fixed. I needed new ignition wires and a spark plug (tune-up). I stil have to get my oil leak fixed and because it is located under the fuel injectors (awkward spot) it is going to be about $400. I can drive around with it like that as long as i check my oil regularly, which I do, until i have enough money to fix it.
A friend called me today to tell me that he wasn't going to call me anymore. I was obviously busy and that I could call him when I had time. His tone wasn't as mean as it looks typed... he's just trying to respect me and let me find my way or something.
Alan should be here soon, we have to work on our debate.

Here's a little anecdote: You want to listen to a cd. You browse your collection and spot the one you want to listen to. At first you didn't really know what you wanted to listen to, but know you're set on listeing to this cd.
You grab the case... you walk over to the cd player.... and then open the case. Aw snap, the cd's not there.
Calypso just fell of the back of my chair and into my back.. it scared me... its dark in here and it's raining pretty hard.
Went to Cartel then to Borders with Cassandra, Derrick, Gabe and Ivy.

I'm at Ronda's house. We just finished practice... oh and by the way we are playing a cuatro de mayo bbq on Sunday. $5 for food and drinks. NINE LITRE and USELESS EFFORT are also playing. The address is 3403 Johnston Ave, Redondo Beach... starts around 2ish. Terry Cloth Shorts at about 5. Gene Kruppa is amazing.
About to leave for the Bash to see movies... hope we're not too late for Slackers.

I've come to appreciate walks (voluntary ones)... cool breeze, music, etc. I realized how great they were after that night when Cassandra and I walked down to Borders from her house, you know the night I threw up.... three times. Anywhoo, I ended up at Cartel and Kat and Mike joined me soon after. We drank lots of tea, which made me pee... a lot. It's a good thing I've gotten to like walking because I might have to start doing it more often. My car is getting worse... I hope whatever is wrong with it doesn't cost too much money, I've already requested extra hours at work.
Today at work there was a party of about 10 ladies in the upstairs bar. I believe they were in their 40's-50's. I recognized one of them from a class i had last semester. The point is they all became friends at a strip joint they all worked at togeter back in the day. I just found it interesting, you don't think about the possibility of the person that sits next to you in class could be or was a stripper.
Calypso doesn't sleep with me all night anymore... she's getting older (more independent?) and leaving the bed earlier and earlier. Sometimes she jumps out before I even fall asleep.

Of Montreal - When You Come Around |
] |
Well soccer was interesting today. We had been playing for a bit and as more people showed up we decided to make the field bigger by moving the goal back. We were almost to where we were going to set down the goal when the joint (where two pieces of aluminum come together to make one) seperated slighlty, then went back together... with my skin in it! My soccer coach (John) came over and pulled the pieces apart enough for me to be freed. Then i went to get some ice. I now have a beautiful contusion/soon to be blood blister. The skin didn't break, and so far it isn't too painful (i've been icing it like a motherfucker).
My mom is leaving for ensenada tonight so I have that house to myself until Friday night when my little sister comes home from Camp Keep.

Work today was pretty good because it was just busy enoug to make the day go fast without drivig me insane. Also Francine (Fran-see-nee) came in @ 1 so it was nice to have someone to talk to the last 3 hours.
Jeezus Shmeezus. Belia is watching the HSN with Suzanne Somer's. It is the most ridiculous thing ever. They sell such crap wearing their stupid satin sweatsuits...
I just finished writing my composition for french. Twas all about living with significant others, your ideal s/o, dream vs. reality. Basically I had to bullshit the whole thing.

Murder City Devils - Dancin' Shoes |
] |
I've been really lazy and haven't updated... what are you gonna do.
well here's some of what has gone on this week:
Wednesday went to Sacred to see Rock Goggle. I was the jacket queen.
All the cold mens came to me for jackets. After coming home I had to write a small (2 page) report on female sexual dysfunction for my psych class. So I read the article and decided to take a quick nap before writing it. When I woke up 10-20 minutes later, my left eye was completely bloodshot, somewhat painful and my vision was blurred out of that eye. I went to the bathroom to flush my eye but nothing made it better, instead of writing my report I went to bed... even closing my eye hurt. Woke up the next morning and it was fine. Weird.
Thursday, Ivy, Lindsey, Terryn and I went to Q*Topia to see The Starlight Desperation and Grande Elegance. Upon arrival we found out it was 21 and over so we went to Amoeba instead. I bought Bright Eyes 'Fevers and Mirrors.' Lindsey bought an Adicts cd. Terryn and Ivy left empty handed. We then went to In & Out. It was good times.
Last night Ivy Lindsey and I went to Juvee to see Grande Elegance and The Starvations. Interesting night. Statch and Daniel showed up during the Starvations set. It was the first time I'd seen him since we broke up, just over a month ago. Anywhoo I bought the Starvations 'Get Well Soon' Went to Erlitos' house afterwards. Twas supposed to be a party... twas not, but that's ok because I got to watch clueless with he and Erin and I met Ethel.

Yesterday Kat and I went thrift shopping. At salvation army I bought a grey peacoat. It has faint stains from the previous buttons... but that's ok because I'm gonna put new buttons on it. New buttons that I bought today at Sas Fabrics for 10 cents each. They're bronze so I am going to spray paint them.
When I went to work to pick up my check I ate a Ruben. It was good but it's got nothing on Jerry's.
Nap.

The Who - Substitute |
] |
Welly welly well it's been awhile since I updated... it was a pretty fun week though it was unproductive. Got denied at the Redroom because my ID was too expired so we went to Ferns instead. Gabe and I danced to the Murder City Devils and The Specials. We had our dancing shoes on... and we were feelin' alright.
Last night I played drums for FX Rock @ the marsee auditorium... haha basically I just played a song with a boy from my french class. (his name is Francisco Xavier which equals FX.) I was kinda nervous because we'd only practiced together 3 times this week. Anywhoo, during rehearsal the high-hat started sliding away...and when i have to reach, I usally end up throwing sticks... and I did. I dropped 3 fucking sticks in one song! but its ok because I didn't in the real perforamance (kinda). The coolest part is before we played we did a, "Whoa Bundy." Hee hee
After I picked up Cassandra and we went to Mike Corso's. Gabe and Ivy met us there andwe all went to Carissimo... Cassandra was pretty drunk. Aya. It was good times
Well I have to go to work

I woke this morning on a red couch next to cassandra. All I thought was, "Whoa, we spent the night... I don't remember making that decision." On the bowl full of starburst on the table next to me was a note.
"Jasmine, Wake me up if you guys need a ride." All I could think about was Wham! Wake me up before you go go.
So last night Cassandra and I drank Whalers Great White Rum mixed with Lemonade. Apparently lemondade covers up the alcohol taste of coconut rum pretty well. We walked to Borders with the lemon-liqour concoction which felt really good because the air was crisp. At borders we met Gabe, Greg, Jeff O. and JP. Jeff O's mom left the funniest message on his voice mail. It wasn't what she said but the way she said it. Today I was browsing the coat section at Salvation Army and couldn't stop laughing as I thought about the message. After Borders Jeff O was kind enough to drop Cassandra and I off at our friend Daniel's house. He has a little Tiki-Bar in his room and loooots of liqour (no beer) Cassandra had long island iced tea and we both played Bust-a-Move. The rest of the night is for the most part a blur. I threw up on the couch and a little on a pillow... but mostly in the trashcan Daniel quickly brought over to me. I went into the bathroom to help him clean the pillow and clumsily knocked over his mom's vase... breaking it. Ah rasberries. I felt bad. I threw up two more times this morning. Water vomit with a little pink fluff cloud from the strawberry-starburst I ate. I even threw up after leaving Cassandra's house. I had to pull over and puked into a storm drain. Needless to say it was a pretty shitty way to start my day. It's ok though. I hung out with Gabe. Someone who didn't know me well would not have known I was hung-over. To Gabe it was obvious because of how, "Non-sequitor," i was. We went to salation army. I got a sweater, a long sleeved shirt and a jacket and all I paid was $9.20. Woo hoo

Kat is in the bathroom doing her hair because we're about to get Cassandra who doesn't want to hang out with,"no ugly bitches." We don't know what we are going to do though.
Earlier Kat and I went to hang out with Dudley and we played with his mini korg. He burned me the liars and gave me a 4-track collectors disc of the Who. It has alternate versions of Substitute, Happy Jack, I'm a Boy and Magic Bus. I rike dem.

Ahhhh! My eye continues to twitch. I have been getting enough sleep [I think] Perhaps it hasn't been "restful" sleep. If I look in the mirror at the right time I can even see it happen. My lower lashes kinda shudder... It's silly but annoying. Well, I finally bought Squeeze - 45' and under, which is basically just a singles collection.
J'ai perdu mes clès. So I had to drive the explorer today, which is great because it has a cd player.... and the gas is not paid for by me. Nicole gave me some contacts for wednesday night, and whenever else I wish to used them.... she showed me how to put them in and even gave me bottle of solution. Thank you much Nicole.

Well I guess I wont be going to San Francisco... no need to put any flowers in my hair. Joanie is going to be very busy next week with tests and studying ergo it wouldn't be an optimal weekend for me to go.
Today Cassandra and I went to Borders to bug the captain, 2nd captain Gabe that is. Espero que todo va bien mijo ;) y quando viene Domingo no tienes ningun razon por estar deprimido. After Borders, we went to Tower. Cassandra got X-Ray Spex and the first Siouxsie and the Banshees singles collection. I got Siouxsie & the Banshees - Scream, mmmm with a little help from my friend. Thanks Cassandra.
Kinda bummed about SF... but there's always something to do here, even if its nothing with a good friend... maybe I can use some of my extra time to work and make some much needed cash. I still haven't gotten the New Order Box set, 24 Hour Party People, a new throne, a needle for my record player... the list goes on. I am a material girl.
Unexpected phone call while dropping off Cassandra...
the conversation, for the most part, wasn't awkward.
Sometimes I get that, "the calender hung itself" feeling. and no sir, I don't like it.
Other times, I'm ok. Needless to say the call made me feel better...
even though it probably meant nothing.

I had a dream yesterday as I napped on my bedroom floor.
Statch was in it... it made me happy... then I woke up.
It was the first recollected dream with him in it since we broke up. oye vay
I'm going to try to visit Joanie next week. I was thinking I could fly up there on sunday night... and come back as early as wednesday so I could join the bash & co. at the redroom. I love san francisco... I would like to go to school up there.
SF State has a good psychology program which is also encouraging.

I have what seems to be a canker sore..... mother fuck is it an annoyance. It's perfectly placed to get nicked by my incisor when i talk, eat, think...
Today everyone noticed I was in a bad mood before I did. The first thing Cassandra said to me is, "What's wrong?" I couldn't think of anything.... Mike said the same thing when Kat and I went to visit him at Git Center. Well, the answer came later..... the krovvy is flowing
Hale Hawaii was quite fun. Good music, good friends, good scorpions. I think I should take a camera next time. All must rock out to Disco 2000.

What is it with cats and lying on the exact thing they're not supposed to. I was writing my psych report and then set my notebook down on the computer desk so I could start typing what I'd written. Along comes Calypso all adorable like and lies on my notebook. I wasn't really paying attention so when I looked she'd already fallen asleep in a position to adorable to be disturbed. I'm so pathetic but I love my kitty

Today I was at work and decided to rummage through my back-pack for no apparent reason.... when i reached my cellphone it started vibrating in my hand! I looked and it was Statch. Because my phone was on silent, if I had not been rummaging at that moment, I would have missed the call and probably not have gotten the message till after work... by which time he would've been gone. Wierd. Anywhoo, he finally called so I got to ask him the question that had been bugging me this week.... actually there is still more I need to get off my chest but the rest should be done in person, or in a letter.
Also today at work I was training this really nice brazilian girl. It made the day go by much faster since I had somone to talk to. She is also a libra, born only one day before me.
I've been getting headaches again. I think it's my wisdom teeth.... or my recent lack of sleep.
