The Office. In my opinion...the best show on tv right now. period.
30 Rock. another excellent show...just sarcastic enough to amuse me.
Glen Hansard. The lead singer from the Irish band The Frames, and the star of the film Once. Haven't seen the film...but love the music. his voice is a mix of Cat Stevens and Jeff Buckley

anyhooo....
i'm going to try and keep up with my journaling. again. i always attempt, and never succeed. but i'll give it another try. i need to keep up on my thoughts etc, because if i don't, the ol head just may explode. that wouldn't be pretty.
i think tomorrow, i'm going to finally delete my other lj account. the one with all the bad memories and baggage attached to it. yep...that one. i think i've had it for something like 6 years. whatever. a clean break is what i need. absolutely.
EDIT: deleted the other journal tonight. feels weird. but a good weird i guess.

Well tomorrow is the 4th of July. The people next door....the loud obnoxious ones with the Doberman that never shuts up....are preparing for a party. just wonderful. and looking at how many tables and chairs they're setting up...it's bound to be full of more obnoxious, loud and more then likely DRUNK people. Just fucking great. i'm not going to be able to enjoy the holiday, because these fucktards are going to be making so much damn noise. Plus, there's the parking situation. there is hardly enough room for the people who live on our street to park...let alone all these freaks that will be here tomorrow. Just how i wanted to spend my holiday...locked inside my house with all the windows closed because of the asshats next door. and our fucking wonderful landlord will do absolutely NOTHING about them.
Sorry for the rant, but i swear to God, a bigger group of ignorant, obnoxious assholes, i have yet to run into.

so, things have been ok i guess. work has been weird as well. $6,000 came up missing at work yesterday, and somehow, L has managed to talk her way out of it again. she has already been written up a bunch of times, and i'm starting to really wonder what it is exactly that you need to do, to get fired from this place. you'd think that a retail business would be interested in missing money. guess not.
been finding myself getting into the whole mindfreak thing again. i'm actually tempted to buy a hoodie from his website...but $55 is a bit steep.
i'm working back-up csr tomorrow. i fucking hate it.

watched two really good movies tonight...and one crappy one.
Good: Notes On A Scandal
WolfCreek
Bad: Unrest
haven't been in any kind of a mood to do vids on yt. i guess that's good, since i was obsessing a lil too much over that place. have also been having some bad dreams lately which i can't seem to shake.
crystal says carolyn will lend us the $$ to have the ramp built, and then i can pay her back a little at a time. haven't said yes yet, since i don't know how to without sounding pathetic.
i'm tired. just very, very tired.

Book # 12: Twilight
Author: Stephenie Meyer
Pages: 499
Genre: Thriller/Supernatural Romance
Rating: C+
Description: Headstrong, sun-loving,17-year-old Bella declines her mom's invitation to move to Florida,and instead reluctantly opts to move to her dad's cabin in thedreary, rainy town of Forks, WA. She becomes intrigued with EdwardCullen, a distant, stylish, and disarmingly handsome senior, who isalso a vampire. When he reveals that his specific clan hunts wildlifeinstead of humans, Bella deduces that she is safe from hisblood-sucking instincts and therefore free to fall hopelessly in lovewith him. The feeling is mutual, and the resulting volatile romancesmolders as they attempt to hide Edward's identity from her familyand the rest of the school.
Review: Having heard and read countlessglowing reviews for this book, i decided to give it a try,considering i've long been a fan of vampire fiction. Unfortunately,this book ended up being more of a sickeningly sweet romance, then athriller involving the supernatural. Reading it, it was overlyobvious that, unlike what some other reviewers had said...this bookis in fact geared toward the teen set. The plot was just too over-topcornball for me. How many times do we really need to read the Bellacharacter describe how perfect and beautiful her sulky beau, Edward,is? In the end, i was left incredibly disappointed.

I have lost any respect that i ever had for the producers of this show.
Not, that Jordin didn't out-perform Blake...she did. but how could she NOT given what she had to work with. That song would have never been something that Blake would have chosen to sing, or in fact, anyone else would have picked for him. i just think it's completely unfair that he wasn't given a song more suited to his style...the way they seemed to cater to Jordin. fair is fair.
According to DialIdol, Jordin is beating Blake by about 30%. It's a joke. And i'm annoyed to the point, that if i wasn't watching the show with my dad, as bonding time...i would give it up for life.

Another annoying day at work. i understand, i'm basically getting paid to stand around. But it's so incredibly boring most of the time. and then the customers are a pain in the ass as well. and that aspect is going to get worse since the aliens will be descending this weekend.
dad says he's feeling a little blue. i wish i had a way of cheering him up. i feel helpless. & still worried about the Medicaid thing.
*bangs head on table*

really happy i got the chance to talk to Susan last night. makes me realize how much i miss having friends to talk to on a regular basis. still freaked out a little about the whole greg encounter. it was just unbelievable that he actually thought he could swing right into some cyber sex with me, after everything that's happened. no wonder i hate me. no, i don't hate men. i hate people in general. there's a difference. i'm an equal opportunity hater.

Where the ever living FUCK did that come from?!
EDIT:
ok, this is one hell of a bizarre night. After all that with Greg....Susan calls me. At least i was happy about that!
