I tell you what.  (Yes, I do.)  Numbers are dwindling at work.  Dave was basically fired.  He delivers our cookies/muffins to other places to be sold.  They decided to put him on straight commission.  That's like ten dollars a week.  So he was forced to quit.  Dave was nice.  I'd make him free smoothies and he'd give me a dollar for them, and be like, "You're making nine dollars this hour!" 

And on Tuesday Judge Tim quit.  He's wanted to for a long time.  His wife just got her old job back, making more money, so he flew the coop.  Everybody misses him.  And they're not going to replace him.  Which is a serious sign that this place is going down soon.  If they can't afford to replace Allen.  Fuck. 

But it's cool.  Everyone's waiting for it to happen so we can have some time to recover from our workplace woes while collecting unemployment.  XD  Me and Bryan have such cheap rent we'd still be able to afford good groceries, and I could focus on my sewing and jewelry-making while deciding on a better place to work.  Bryan thinks they'll try to keep the store open through the holidays.  We'll see what happens.

I has the flu.  It kicked in halfway through work yesterday, but I managed to stick it out through the end of the day.  When Halle came in, she looked at me funny.  And then it went like this:

Halle:  How are you feeling?
Me:  Ehhh.  Not so good.
Halle:  Well, I have to tell you.  You look like shit.

I blame Cliff.  He got a flu shot.  So now he's spreading his flu.  I fucking hate vaccines.  Especially when they're being sold at fucking WalMart and Target and every drug store. 

They're just spreading the disease faster to make a profit.  Just strengthen your immune systems, people.  Anyway, that's what I get for eating so much sugar at work.  It weakens your immune system for five hours after eating it.  No wonder America's so sick.

Three is company tooooooooo!

My camera has arriiiived!

Also.  On Saturday, Bryan and I went to a tantra workshop/celebration/raw food feeeast and became friends with some awesome people.  We have a new bestie named Shakthi (he's from India and is super cool) who Bryan actually ran into at a festival too.  XD  He was heading the workshop, along with Iris, who is more free to be herself than anyone I've ever met.  Halle (who I'm becoming friends with now, holy shit) described her quite well as being a spirit.  When she sang with the singing bowl... god.  I can't even describe how incredible it was.  Needless to say, I sang with mine the next day, and it was unbelievable.  Anyone who has a singing bowl and has never sung with it, it's something you should really experience.

 The workshop was incredible.  There were tons of exercises to open the chakras, raise energy and play with it, notice how the food affected different chakras, and just generally have everyone open up and become free to be themselves without fear of judgement.  By the end we were all hugging and feeding each other (raw vegan) cake.  ^-^  It was amazing.  It was what kindergarten should be.

I have more to tell, but I'm sleepy, so I'll tell more another time.  I still need to write about the drum circle at my last festival.  ^-^

Hi, Jen here.  Pretty much the same one.  But I'm in a whole new world now.  I broke up with Cameron, moved in with Young Bryan, and am in one of the most bizarre love triangles ever between him and Mike.  I live with Bryan, and he's... technically my boyfriend, but we're in an open relationship, so I'm also sort of dating Mike.  But, they're best friends and we're all completely aware of the situation, so it's awkward at times when we're all hanging out.  I love them both.  I just want to be close to the people I care about.

We're all going to be porn stars.  Kickass, eh?

I'm practicing more yoga and studying more magick.  I'm having fun with food and creating things.  I'm learning to live in the moment, for the moment.  I'm experiencing things most people can't even dream about and seeing the world in a million new ways.

I'm happier than I've ever been.

Life is wonderful.

Sent my mom home when she and Cameron both came to pick me up after work.  SO MAD SHE WAS!

I got free yoga tickets from work, but the roads were too crappy for us to make it there in time.  We went to Denny's instead and I bought Cameron dinner.  Cheeseburger date!  ^-^

Lum show, pretty snow, back rub, snuggles.
