What up all?I really hate that I can't keep up with this thing as much as I used to....I remember the days where I would look forward to writing stuff in here. Now I barely have time to update.
My two jobs are going alright. Although, Cat is now mad at me. At least I think she is....What happend was, she had apprently done the schedule for this week, like way back. She probably didn't, but anyways, I hadn't been to work since Monday. The day was Saturday. I told Greg to schedule me for whenever on the shedule for this week because I thought Cat hadn't done it yet. So I get scheduled on Sunday for both jobs. And of course, I wanna work at the bookstore because, DUH, it pays more. So, I go in and tell Cat that I can't work on Sunday ( didn't tell her why) and she starts getting all like "how are you telling me this two days ahead" and she told me the schedule's been out there and yadda yadda yadda. She pretty much tried to blame it on me. So yeah, Im like "fuck it, im not working here when I can get paid more at my other job" so I called Erica and she did me a huge favor and came in. I honestly don't care if Cat is angry at me. She has no right to be and I just don't give a shit anymore. I need to move on from this job and find ways to start bettering myself besides worrying about her schedule. She has enough Pets in thats store that will be by her side. Whatever.
Life at the bookstore is good though. I really like it there. I love looking up books for people and the satisfaction of finding something for someone. I love shelving books and seeing what new ones I wanna read. Its such an awesome time. I really hope I get to work At the big borders. Working two jobs is definatly tough. But Its not so bad. The 12 hour days is what gets me the most. And I'll probably be working more then that when our extended hours start durring Christmas. grrrrrrrr. oh well.
I got Scott Stapp's album...I LOVE IT. It's really awesome. I saw him perform "the Great Divide" on Jay Leno the other night. SUCH A GOOD SONG!!!!! I love it so much. And today...BO'S ALBUM COMES OUT!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!! and also, the new FAMILY GUY DVD'S!!!!!!!!!!! Im heading right over to Best Buy after work. I'm sooo psyched!!!!
Anywhoo. time for bed...goodnight!

Hey, folks...sorry Im tardy to the party...
Well, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! Hope everyone had a good day :) I did for the most part. Me and my dad went up to my Aunt Jean's house and EVERYONE was there. My cousins came up from Pennsylvania too :). It was good to see them again ^_^. Jean made an AWESOME dinner. And I was actually proud of myself. When i left her house, I wasn't overly full. I felt just right. I didn't make a pig outta myself Chandra!!!! lol :-D. Jenn and Jeff got lost and didn't end up coming untill later...lol, it was kinda funny...poor Jeff was stuck in a car with Jenn freaking out. lol. But anywhoo..I had such bad allergies yesterday...from the time I woke up, till the time I went to bed, I just felt lke crap. I was supposed to go over Dom's when I got back from Jean's, but I just didn't have the strength. That, and the weather sucked ass. It snowed already. ICK. Its so cold and crappy now....and I gatta work today!!!! yes, on Black Friday I have to work. GROSS. only 1-7 Though, so it shouldn't be too bad..
I talked to Yesi over text messages yesterday!!! She's in orlando now!!! Lucky....I wish I was there with her and everyone else. I MISS EVERYONE!! I had a dream last night that I talked to Brett and I told him "If you had hung out w/ us more and all that, then I think we could have been really good friends" and in my dream, he definatly agreed w/ me. Huh. That was a weird dream though.
Well Me and Kristin and Rae went to Alumni day again this year! LOL, it wasn't as much fun as last year, but we still had a good time. Rae said that the only reason we go every year is because we act like such idiots together. :-P LOL. I got to see pretty much everyone who I wanted to see. I Saw Mr. Casey too!!!!! I didn't get to see him last year because he wasn't there. But I saw him!!!! hehe :-D He's still as awesome as ever. I saw Mr. Rush too :-D He told me he's gonna be in a couple more plays coming up. Ill have to see if I can get to them. :).
Something weird happend last night. Well, actually, this morning. I got a phone call from Dom at about 3 AM. I answered it, and said "Hello" a bunch of times and he didn't say anything. And after about a minute, he hung up or we got dissconnected or something. I have NO IDEA what that was about....and why he would call me at 3 AM is something thats leaving me a little clueless... I hope everything is alright...I dont know, im kinda worried tho. Im thinking about calling him at work.
Anywhoo...speaking of work, I gatta leave soon. Im gonna walk today..cuz theres no way in hell I'm driving to the mall on black Friday. Anyways, see you all soon. HOpefully....

Dang, I don't know why I keep this blog..I never have time to update it. And I doubt anyone reads it...
but anyways....
things have been good...I got an IPod!!! I absolutly LOVE it. I got a Mini. the nano is WAY too small. I ordered a silver mini online. I fricking LOVE it. I have a bunch of songs on there already.. Its so cool! Its awesome for walking. I love not having to carry around a huge CD player with CD's with me. I LOVE IT! It'll come in handy when I'm stuck walking to work in the freezing cold...lol, it'll help me keep my mind off of it. :-P
Me and Dom watched Eternal Sunshine the other night..I got it from my Netflix. I twas REALLY good! I didn't really know what to expect from it, but I really did like it. Very entertaining and different. I definatly reccomend it if you haven't seen it. Next movie I'm watching is "Dial M for Murder". An Alfred Hitchcock movie. ^_^.
It was friends and family weekend this past weekend at the bookstore...hehehehe! The employees got 40% off everything. So on Sunday I went up there and picked out some stuff. I got my new 2006 Dilbert planner, and book called "Timequake" by Kurt Vonnegut and a book called "the A-list" which is a series. I can't wait till the new Alex Rider books come out in paperback too...Im reading "eagle strike" now. Can't wait till the others come out!!
Not a whole lot else to talk about. things have been overall really good. I've had a dencent amount of money lately to buy some nice things for myself, and buy some good Christmas presents for people. And things are pretty a-okay!
I'm really enjoying my time w/ Dom..him and his mom invited me over for dinner on Sunday. His mom made pasta. It was SO good. I think I'm gonna make brownies for her on Christmas..Cuz my brownies are to die for...lol :-D
I talked to Angelo on the phone again a few days ago..He seems to be doing pretty good. He's a little ticked off at his job right now. but, who isnt? I still feel bad for him though. He's getting warnings for all this stupid shit and I just feel terrible for him. But hopefully things will get better. It was good to talk to him again tho :) I think the last time I talked to him on the phone before that was when I was in Florida.
hmmm...guess thats it for today.... ill try to keep up w/ this thing more.
l8r!

Well this will be the third day in a row that I haven't seen Dom. I guess he's been too tired to hang out. I know he's busy, but I do miss him :(. Last time I saw him was when we went to see Jarhead on Saturday.
I had today off...Which was nice. I still ran around a little tho. I went to Church to pick up all the papers from the pumpkin patch...and i got my check!!!! wooooot! I'm kinda considering getting an IPod. It seems really convieniant like when i'm at the gym and stuff...I wouldn't have to bring my CD player and a bunch of CD's. Just my one little IPod. Maybe, I dunno yet. Might just save it....Or it may end up going to my car payment or some stupid shit like that. grrrr. lol
I finished the 6th Harry Potter book. I stayed up until like 3AM reading it. Holy Crap I don't believe it. I don't wanna ruin it for anyone else, but I wanna scream right now!!! lol, well,lets just say, someone dies, and its not good.
I wonder how UConn's doing. I haven't even been paying attention. Shows how much of a fan I am. Wonder how the Sun's are doing too. I know the Pats suck this year. LOL, but thats about all I know. I haven't had much time to be keeping up w/ sports.
Things at work still suck. I love my job at the bookstore but Papyrus is a little sketchy. I'm so sick of everything. I'm sick of the constant bullshit that goes down, I'm Just wondering what the hell is going on. I've never seen so much bullshit in my life. Seriously. People are just losing their minds. All over a stupid stationary store. Its rediculis. I've made the decision that from now on, I'm just gonna lay low. I don't wanna know about anything, I don't care. I'm just gonna do my job and go home and not disucuss anything w/ anyone. I"m just really worried about what could become of all this. But I guess, If I lose my job, I lose my job. I'm definatly gonna try to get into the big Borders tho..maybe my boss will call one of the managers there and put in a good word for me. Or maybe she would keep me on. I don't think so tho. I don't think she has many hours for me. I'm getting a good amount now, but I need fulltime.
Anywhoo,I think I'm gonna go watch Goodfellas. later all.

I wrote another poem and posted it on my DeviantArt page. I really didn't like it at first. The thing is pretty much one giant cliche. But the first day I put it up, someone already added it to their favorites list. I was wicked surprised. lol, I didn't think anyone would like it.I got my new Netflix movies! I got Eternal Sunshine, Goodfellas, and Dial M for Murder. I still gatta watch Crash...Cat let me borrow it. I wonder if she ever watched "25th Hour" that I let her borrow. lol :-P
Today we had that dumbass fucking meeting at work. I'm getting pissed. I'm just so fucking mad at that place. I've HAD IT. It definatly prooved even more that James and Sarah are manager's pets. Im all set w/ the bullshit now. She was talking about how we all need to step up our customer service and whatever, and she singled out me and Susan saying that we've sold the least amount of those stupid membership cards. Who the hell cares?! You don't single someone out like that at a "professional" fucking meeting. I dunno, I gatta get out of there. I'm hoping I can transfer to the normal Borders after my holiday shift is up. Maybe theres some way I can do that. I would love to work there. I could have all the chai i want!
Anywhoo. Me and Dom went to see Jarhead last night. AWESOME movie. So freakin' AWESOME. Highly reccomend it.
well, thats it, i don't feel like talking anymore.
