| today i used a high powered hand dryer in a restaurant bathroom. the hand dryer was right above an outlet. it seemed like a good layout idea.
listening to your ipod while watching fireworks when surrounded by people making dumb comments a lot is really really nice too. | | |
| happy belated canadian independence day!tonight i celebrated with some djs and co. the canadian independence day. it was planned by a canadian who had a lot of fireworks that were smuggled in years ago and canada beer, as well as hot dogs.
we:
~blew up a kiwi, a banana, and a bottle with Black Cat firecrackers.
~shot off Roman Candles and some even battled with them.
~set off another firework i forgot the name of that made pretty sparkles in several cool ways (at the end of a stick is definitely the coolest.
~made a fire and roasted some hot dogs, but one guy set off roman candles in the fire and one didn't go off, until 10 minutes later right next to me. that was the second time i had a ringing noise in my left ear, and i told the guy that the day my left ear goes deaf i'm blaming him.
~played some lumberjack game where you flip a hammer one of three ways, and depending on how you flip it and manage to catch it lets you take 1 to 3 shots at trying to hammer in everyone else's nails, but you have to do it quickly so you miss a lot, i lost both times we played.
i also had one of the bananas explode in my face. i'm now proud to be able to say, i've had a banana explode in my face.
oh yeah, i also came home to a giant mass of ants in front of my apartment doors, i wish i had my camera (note to self, start carrying it around all the time again) to document. i think they where starting a new colony since i saw some with wings (yay for the things i learned from Sim Ant), but there was also buzzing and what looked like bumble bees ripped apart in the swarm. it was bizarre. | | |
| i haven't fallen off the planet, i just fell off somethingin the past two weeks i've:
~hung out and worked a bit
~freaked out about maybe having bed bugs (which is seeming less likely, but i've already sanitized my apartment like a crazy person and at least i'm pretty much all packed now.)
~watched a lot more sex in the city (i can't help it, it's bad enough i'm single but i don't even have that close knit a friend group here to relieve me of my womanly whines.)
~tanned
i live an exciting life.
i'm going to boston again this weekend with the same people that set off my manic depressant episode the other weekend. i think i'm a glutton for pain, or i really need to make more friends who invite me to do stuff.
in other news:
Listen:
~The Chap is a good awkward dancing time.
~Fleet Foxes is an amazing beautiful emotional time.
Read:
~Killing Yourself to Live. I think i liked Sex Drugs and Cocoa Puffs better, but this was also quite addictive. i guess reading about a guy who can't seem to get his mind of girls all the time isn't so great when i keep coming in contact with scummy guys who like to tell me what ladies they would like to bang and which they would not. the ending was sorta, clichéd as well in my opinion, but i loved the people he came across in his travels and how he presented them, although his attempt to connect his love life with rock n rollers deaths was so vague and weak that i almost could've just done without that part, if it wasn't the reason why he was doing the road trip at all.
~The Gum Thief. Coupland's newest book, it sort of felt like it lacked substance like JPod did, although still entertaining in that Coupland way. it was interesting how he did a story, within a story, within a story, and how he was poking fun at the pointlessness of life for the average joe, but his ending didn't really touch me as much as his other books (Generation X = the search for what life's all about, Shampoo Planet = the beauty of nature, Microserfs = the power of technology combined with people, All Families are Psychotic = the bond between people regardless of how they act, Eleanor Rigby = the bumping into love).
i should go to sleep, that's what i do best nowadays. | | |
| As the Gnarls Barkley song goesI don't have any friends at all, cause I have nothing in common with y'all.
Well, that's a lie for me obviously, but lately I've been feeling like that. Especially the line,
"I want everything to go my way, shut up mom everything is not ok, I'm alone almost everyday, but it's cool, it could be better, I don't care, whatever."
Let me explain you something. This was my day:
~I invited a friend to join me at the radio station because he said he needed new music. He's now (meaning as of this moment) smitten with me (I knew he liked me, but it was made clear that I have no interest in him in that way) and now I just don't want to talk to him anymore. He called me twice tonight, which is to be explained in a bit.
~I went to Boston with above friend, a mutual friend of ours who flirts with girls too much but can't help himself, and a Thai girl that our mutual friend of ours was trying to hook up with above friend. What happens? Well, mutual friend ends up flirting with her too much in the past and present and she wants to jump into bed with him.
~I was just stuck in a car with mutual friend and Thai girl and had to watch them flirt the whole time back. This normally wouldn't bother me except that both of them are 23 and flirt like 10 year olds. The Thai girl hitting him to show her affection, him pushing her around and saying stupid things like a dumbass/asshole, and she loves it even though he has "no interest in her" (meaning that he will probably get drunk one night with her and bang her anyways.)
~I was unfortunately called twice on the way back in the car by above friend, the first time to check that we were doing ok, the second time to make sure we finally made it out ok (because in addition to being stuck in the car with 10 year olds flirting, we were also lost in Boston for an hour because mutual friend refused to let me call someone and just have them look up directions online and tell us rather than having mutual friend almost crash a few times looking up directions on his blackberry, which didn't even tell us the right way so we ended up going in circles repeatedly) as if he was my mom or something (he's over 30).
~I am currently cranky because I'm tired, but I'm more cranky because what I would normally do in a time like this is call the person I consider closest to me in the world (aka the swede) but yet again, his phone is on silent even though I have repeatedly gotten mad at him for this and told him to not do it so as to avoid nights like this where I end up just pissing on here and feeling even more pissy because it just reminds me that I don't really have real friends.
Another 30 years of this and I think I will become a genuine, top of the line curmudgeon. I don't think I can become a cat lady either because I realized recently that cat hairs are horrible clothing parasites that don't come out with repeated de-linting attempts. So, I'll just be alone all the time, whatever. | | |
| i am a loserwell, i just successfully spent the whole day watching sex in the city online. i am now legally a loser, i put the paperwork in somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd time Mr Big breaks Carrie's heart.
i have cool pictures (why i hate nyc story #who knows anymore, dancing in albany, my visit to a much nicer uconn campus) and stories to put up (the heat wave that was the reason why i didn't have work today, why i don't really have any friends anymore, and lots of book reading.)
sounds like i'm getting ready for san francisco! i just need to get my own copy of GRE top 500 words (which is $14? kaplan can suck it, i'm just going to copy a friend's cards) and i'll be all ready to rock and roll.
i hate it when i feel obliged to long periods of time of not really doing anything. i don't think i'm ready to grow up, or at least someone to do nothing with me so i don't feel as bad about doing nothing all by myself. i want to teleport to sweden right now. | | |
