I went to my first "real" party last night and had my first shot of imported Irish whiskey.  Followed by a shot of rum, then a few shots of gin (I HATE GIN UGH).  Whiskey is the best tasting and feeling of the three by far, and is the first alcohal I've tried that I actually enjoy. 

And along with all of that, I got smoked up for the first time since Mike's birthday.  The two combined were crazy cool.  Bryan and I left the party and went shopping for sexyclothes and played dressup/picture time (laptop has a built in webcam).  AND HE LET ME DO HIS MAKEUP.  XD!!!!  He said he'd go halves with me on a camera so we can get a nice one for our moneymakinz.  XD  We really need to get going on that.

I'm back on raw foods pretty hardcore and eating a lot of greens.  It does wonders for the skin.  And energy levels, holy shit.  Bryan and I had some pretty fucking amazing sex today.  It had been too long.  We were both in a grumpy, lazy slump eating sugary crap for a while.  No moar, plzkthx!  ^-^

Hanging out with my mom was a blast (<0.o>)  Yes.  A blast.  XD!!!  I looooove Twilight, but I don't love Edward because he looks too much like Bob the shminx and that's really fuckin' creepy.  We had DiGiorno, and I slept in my old bed.  First bed I've slept in since I moved out.

Friday we went for a drive, then went to Denny's for burgers (why I decided I needed a rawfood detoooox UGH  XD) and went on a really long walk in the woods (no wonder Jen had a blast  XD  WALKING) and I've convinced her to start walking with me every Friday now.  We've never gotten along this well before.  I'm so happy.

Cammy came in yesterday to see me at work!  And I was already off the clock, so we got to hug and chat and stuff!  I miss her.  We're gonna get so much food together.  Melissa too.  We're gonna go to Little Italy and get cannoli and cassata cake.

I start fall bellydance classes at the dance academy this Wednesday.  I'm so excited!

I have a few people wanting to buy kale chips and chocolate coconut balls from me, so Imma get to cookin'.  XD

Bryan watched the first NANA movie with me and he liked it.  ^-^  I BET I'M SO BEHIND ON THE MANGA!  EEEP!

Made me miss my kuzn hardcore.

I LOVE YOU, KUZN!  WE SO NEED A NANA PARTY!!!

I've decided to brew up some mead.  For those of you unfamiliar with what in the name of pants I'm going on about, please, do let me clarify.  Mead is an alcohalic beverage made from honey.  (I can see Niki's eyes widening already.  XD)  I also added apple slices and small amounts of cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, and cardamom.  It will be ready in exactly two months - on October thirty-first.   Since this is my first go at it, I'm just doing a gallon.

Also, some time this coming month I'm going to make some cider, so that it will be mellowed nicely in time for my twenty-first birthday.  Though it'll probably just save a little for that night, because apparently I'm going barhopping.  XD  It should still taste nice after just a few months of aging, so it'll be nice to have for late fall and early winter.

I'm making an awesome silver chain for the pendant I made last night.

And my sister moved out and is in an apartment with two guys and a girl.

Bryan and I plan to visit in October or November.

I'm spending the night at my mom's Thursday and we're watching Twilight. 

Leo's such a good snugglecat.

^-^

I really have a lot going on.  I need to make a list of shit I need to do.

• Mail Niki's box.
• Make a mannequin.
• Call my mom to get my card.
• Buy a new shower filter.
• Soak some nuts for tomorrow.
• Fast.
• Put away my laundry.
• Buy a camera.
• Buy a dehydrator.
• Look into video editing programs.
• Expand wardrobe in a sexy way.
• Buy makeup.
• GO TO BED.
• Have sex.
• Study.
• STOP EATING SUGAR.
• Buy kickass silver wire.
• Practice bellydancing before class Wednesday.

Let's see how many I can knock off the list by tomorrow.  XD

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.

Happy New Year.

Everything is constantly changing.  I got a new job in the health food store I love so much, working in the juice bar.  I miss my deli buddies, but my new job is so much better and I'm making good friends.  Too bad they'll all eventually quit and/or move to California.  Christmas was full of Hello Kitty.  Cameron's becoming a voice actor and plans to get a house with a couple of his friends after this semester.  I'm not ready to move in with him yet, but I'm still not sure what my plans for moving out are.  I'm still saving for my degree and need a car/license before I feel comfortable moving out.  Niki's back to obsessing over guys and forgetting the rest of the world exists.  Who's the real Hachi in this friendship?  I miss her.  Even though we're in the same room. 

She's getting on a plane (or two) by herself to go half way across the country to see this guy.  But she's scared to take the bus 15 minutes down the street by herself.

I got a Nintendo DS (and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon / Hello Kitty PDA software) and DDR for my PS2.

I just bought an Aquasana shower filter to celebrate my first paycheck from my new job.

Cameron said his parents are thinking about giving or letting me borrow their laptop that they don't really need anymore to use for school.  They think I'm just taking online classes from the local community college I went to for a semester and a half (ish), and don't know about the grandma-box situation.  If they decide not to, I'm going to get a credit card and start building up good credit by buying a laptop (that I can afford to pay off right away).  Hopefully I'll be back online soon.

My mom's getting off work now.  Cameron didn't answer his phone, so I think he's in a class.  I really need to see him. 

I'm not taking the bus because apparently there's a rapist/theif with a gun on the loose (local enough for concern).  I guess I'll end up leaving with my mom while Niki's still asleep.

I told Niki last night how I was upset about her ignoring me to talk to Brett the last three times I've come over.  I tried all evening to get her to pay attention to me, but she was more interested in talking to him.  Even though it's all she does, and she only sees me once a week (or less).  I told her I don't care if she wants to talk to him, but that she shouldn't tell me she's going to hang out with me if she's just going to ignore me. 

I finally got her to shut off the computer and watch the Nana anime with me, but I could tell she didn't want to and just felt bad about upsetting me.  After the first episode ended she went in the bathroom and didn't come out for at least a half hour.  I cleaned up the kitchen and got ready for bed.  I wasn't enjoying forcing her to hang out with me, so I rolled over like fifteen minutes after she came back.  I heard her get on the phone with Brett.  I shut off the tv.

I don't know why I bother.

Thirteen days until I turn twenty.

I think I'll build a snowman when I get home.

Shit, son.  It's been like a month.  PLISS.  LET MEH ECKSPLAYN.  So, my gramma moved in and seems to have brought the Great Wall of China with her.  Sadly, she sat it right in front of my computer, so I can only journal when I'm at Niki's and she's in the shower.  XD  Anyway, to update the world, Halloween was totally amazing, I'm definitely going to find out what the health food store has to offer (jobwise) and switch if it's good.  The deli life is simply not my cup of meat.  But that's old news.  For people who I've already told, at least.  XD  Cameron's decided he wants to be famous, so he's not holding in his talents so much anymore and is becoming much more brave about expressing it.  It inspires me to do the same.  The snow is here.  Thanksgiving's going to be broken up because my mom's antisocial and my gramma's boxes have taken over the world.  I had a weird dream Thursday night that I was sad and giving Squirrelaroo a hug.  Friday I found out he was fired, so I decided I'm a totally awesome psychic.

Me and Niknik are having our usual blasty.  We roasted a fresh young chicken last night with fresh rosemary, little red potatoes, and golden delicous apple.  IT WAS SOOO GOOD!  Then we had gelato.  ^-^   Anne and I are going to BT(white boy from the kitchen)'s rap concert next Friday night.  It should be fun.  XD

Happy Thanksgiving!

As I'm sure you've noticed.  Hopefully my fall themed text colors will help make up for that.  I work, I see my friends, and I sleep... and I do all the shit my mom needs in order to move grandma in NEXT WEEK?  That's insanely soon.  And gramma's in Florida, so my mom's doing everything.  Deciding what goes where, packing, moving things.  Oy.  But anyway, WEDNESDAY.  I'm singing an original song at the nifty little cafe's open mic night (after some Niki peep hangin' all around the world and the health food store).  And Cameron's thinking about singing a combination of two eighties songs he's strung together nicely.  And Niki will be there (for it is our peephangland) and also possibly Anne!  I told her about it, and she's been to that cafe before, so I said she should come!  'Cause she gets off at seven that night, and Cameron doesn't get off until eight.  Plenty of time.  So, after the performance and some big giant peep hangin', Cameron's gonna drop me and Niki off at her house where the peep hangin' shall continue on into the wee hours of the night.  XD

Also.  Prom.  We've decided to have a deli prom at work.  (Island themed.)  XD  Only those who belong to the deli (and their dates) are allowed to come.  The list of couples, as of yet, is as follows:

Me - Dolphin

Anne - Hot Capicolla (Spiral Ham dumped her)

Chelse - Possibly Leona Bologna, still undecided, but definitely is the DJ.

Jenn - Eye of Round

John (from the kitchen) - Broccoli Delight

Jerry (from the seafood department, who we haven't even told about prom yet XD) - NOT the rainbow trout because it's not a deli member and, therefore, cannot get him in.  Most likely the Eggplant Wrapped Tillapia.  (We decided he can't handle the Orange Roughie.)

We're waiting until there's a night when EVERYONE who knows about it is closing.  We may write Cindy a note asking for her to schedule us all to close on the same night one night, but we haven't thought of a reason to give her for it yet.  XD  Most importantly, though, I need to write her a note to remind her that I wrote her a note requesting Halloween and the next day off (next Friday and Saturday) tomorrow so she doesn't accidentally forget when she goes to make next week's schedule on Thursday.  The Halloween party's gonna be amazing.  I'm still not sure of everything I'm wearing.  Will we be inside or outside most of the time?  I guess the weather will be similar to at the Memorial Day party.  It was really chilly. 

I'm bringing a pumpkin.  I'll probably carve it at my house first so it's not so heavy.  XD 

Sunday, October 5th

Noon

I has a shed.  We were supposed to paint it today but it's too cold, so the paint wouldn't stick right.  Or something.  It's huge, but still doesn't completely block the creepy old staring guy from my bathroom window.  *shrug*  Gramma's stuff is gonna go in there when she moves in.  Some of it anyway.  Not all of it would even fit in this house if we took all of me and my mom's stuff out (which also barely fits).  A lot of it will be given away and some will go into storage I think.  Terrible.  But I don't care.  I'll be moving out anyway.  I really should save more.  I've been spending a lot lately.  But I can't help it.  I've gone so long without being able to have anything that I really want to reward myself for little things in a way I never could for... any things before.  I'm not buying too much STUFF really.  Just Wen and food.  Really great food.  Delivered to me.  Dot com.  XD! 

I went to Niki's after work on Friday and we ordered in from a sushi place.  The sushi was amaaazing and I got a delicious seaweed salad too.  Niki got teriyaki chicken (of course XD!) that came with rice, miso soup, a salad (for little kookz!) and these mysterious, yet delicious, pouches of meat.  I french-braided her hair, trimmed her NANA wig to perfection and we watched The Breakfast Club (and took pictures).  It was super duper fun.  And then I went to sleeps.

Yesterday I woke up at 8:30am to find that Chris had been there the whole time.  I thought he was at his dad's, but he had just been in his room sleeping since like 6pm the night before.  XD!!!  I took a shower, then we chatted a bit while Niki was sleeping, and watched super hard mario. 

Me and Niknik went to the health food shop and found out the goff girl there is having a baby girl!  But apparently it's Tim's, so Niki's back to marrying the sushi chef at my work.  Even though the baby is really hers.  XD!!!  We got mint chocolate swirl rice cream and ate it outside the closed cafe next to the health food shop and had a chat.  Then we went back to her house on the bus (while taking pictures) and watched mochi poof up in the oven while laughing (and taking pictures).  We had it with some of the agave nectar I bought, and it was reeeally good.  And I gave her a treat stick, which she enjoyed.  XD

Then I went to Camcam's and watched him fly around his tiny RC helicopter.  It's sooo cute!  Then we had chicken/azn n00dles/key-lime bars his mom made (surprisingly edible... because it all came out of boxes besides the chicken which was juicy but devastatingly flavorless), and he played with his synth some and showed me Portal before we watched some Initial D and had super cuddles times™.  JESUS, that's my boy. 

My mom is driving me nuts today.  It's one of those days where she got up at the exact same time as me, and decided to do shit in the room I'm in, and give me no privacy and not allowing me to concentrate... CONSTANTLY interrupting me to make me set up this stupid fucking shelf.

There are three new girls in the deli, so I'm working four days a week now instead of five.  That gets me $180 a week. 

The new health food store opens up in like a month (maybe two?).  It's really tempting.  If I could work five days a week there, even with slightly less money per hour I'd probably be making more and liking my job more.

She's pounding metal with a mallot three feet away.  HELP ME.

So, after a bit of studying, I may get to be the person at work who recommends fancy cheeses to people.  Because I luffs cheese.  I've been working my ass off all week, so it's pretty sore.  XD  Really just my legs and upper back.  And my feet.  And my lower back.  ... Okay, pretty much everywhere.  I worked Friday, yesterday, and today.  Nine hours each day.  An hour lunch and two fifteen minute breaks were the only time I got to sit.

Also, this weekend was the garage sale, so I spent most of my non-working time heaving boxes and sorting through crap.  And I spent Friday night at Niki's, brought her a tiny nom to cheer her up from her boyfriend moving (though he was THERE for a visit already.  XD) and we watched the NANA movie!  So great.  And had chicken sammiches of JOY.

Yesterday, I finished bringing in everything from the garage sale that we didn't sell (or give to charity afterwards) home, I went to go take a shower because I'd been working all day before that and just felt gross.  So, my mom stops me and says I have a package.  IT WAS WEN.  OH.  MY.  GOD.  My hair has NEVER been so soft in my life.  And I also used it as a body wash AND facial cleanser (added salt to make it a scrub for those two).  I felt (and smelled) soooo clean and I'm so soft.  But not a greasy, overmoisturized soft.  A perfect moisture balance I've never experienced.  I'm so happy.  I'll never have to buy another bath product again.

Anyway, after my AMAZING shower, I scarfed down two slices of pizza, and Cameron took me to see Mamma Mia!  XD  It was SO fucking hilarious.  I loved it.  We sang along.  XD  Everyoned did.  LOL  Who can resist singing "Dancing Queen" at ALL?   I mean, come on.  XD

So then, today I thoooought Cameron was getting off work at six.  He said he'd take me home from work today, but I got off at four and needed to kill time until he got off.  I went to this fancy little ice cream place near work and got a sundae shaped like a puppy, which was INCREDIBLE.  And I still had over an hour, so I decided to start walking towards his work, so he wouldn't have to go out of his way as much to pick me up.

Well.  It turns out, he actually got off work at five.  And he was out looking for me, and calling me, but my phone had no signal where I was walking so it never rang.  It was about 5:45, and I was almost at his work when my phone finally rang, and he was FREAKING OUT because he couldn't find me, and had already gone home.  He went in my work and searched the place for me.  Oy.  But yeah.  Since he had gone home, I just called my mom and she gave me a ride home.  Crazy fucking situation.

I had a cherry danish.

And decaf black-vanilla organic tea.

Not at the same time.

But I still loved them.

3:30pm

So, I forgot my mom is off Saturday.  But it's because of the garage sale.  So she's going to gramma's at like 7:30, which is perfect for her to take me to work at 7:00.  She already agreed.  Reluctantly.  And gave me an "I told you so" kind of speech about her "pushing me" to get my license.  What she did was terrify me into not wanting to ever drive.  Ever.

Ever.

Because she is terrifying to try to learn to drive from. 

Anyway, I'm still popping over to Niki's after work tomorrow to bring her a tiny nom from the bakery to cheer her up a bit.

And some organic baNANAs.
