quitting and starting fresh

I am quitting GB this week and starting at Azalea this week. I’ll be working for my friend Ginno at the one of the most amazing boutiques in San Francisco. Too bad I can’t afford to buy half of the clothing in there.

This last Thursday Madeline and I did a little shopping in the Castro. And yes, she got a guys number. And yes, he was gay, but baby steps right? After that I met up with Lo and we walked down to Haight for San Francisco's first RVCA art show at the spankin' new store. Free alcohol! What?! Pure craziness and fabulous art. Kate, Brenton, Sally and Joseph all came and also Sean...an ex. yay. Lo and I stayed for about an hour and then took a cab down to the Warfield to see Paramore. The cab driver decided to tell us true stories of SF cab drivers killing people. Awesome. We ran into Aaron and Zach there. Aaron took us to the side stage for a few songs, but the sound sucks from there. He had to do merch stuff, so Lo and I rocked out with the crowd for the rest of the show. Thanks Aaron for getting us in!

2 nights ago Madeline was out at the Elbo room with Rachel and she met Gordo from Lizzie McGuire.

How cute is he?
I guess he goes to UC Berkeley. I stayed home and watched Transformers. Coincidence? I think not! And I give Transformers a thumbs up. I really liked it and the saturated color through the whole thing was beautiful.

Last night we all went out to Elbo Room, Delirium, and Casa Nova. While I was waiting outside La Cumbre for Rachel and Madeline to get food some girl went to open the door and pretty much body slammed me. When I asked what that was about the guy she was with replied with.."well it IS San Francisco.." I asked what that was supposed to mean. He said that she probably did it on purpose. I asked what that meant and if she was a lesbian or something. He said no and asked where we were from as if we just wouldn’t understand unless we were from San Francisco. Rachel came in at that point and helped out. Eventually he left me alone. I think the girl was just drunk.

Tonight Zach is taking me to see Sondre Lerche.

Man, he is cute. I love me some Scandinavians.

I’m sure most of you have all heard about the huge ship running into the Bay Bridge and spilling oil into the bay. It’s killing wildlife and most of the beaches are closed. It was caused by “human error”. If not, Google it.

nice little ending to the day

i was driving to work and some dumb lady on her cell phone in her mercedes benz hit me. then tried to say i hit her and that she had a green, along with me. thats so weird that i could have hit her considering my car was tboned. i tried to call the police, but they said they wouldnt come if no one was hurt. interesting. so this streak of bad stuff happening is just never ending. im still trying to figure out what i did to deserve all this. i know its happening for a reason, im just not sure what the reason is yet. when 2 months hits its gotta stop....right?

so i skipped work, called Lo. she brought over a card, movies and food to make me feel better. so amazing. thanks Lo! all when she was feeling like crap from getting sick.

then i came home to quinn drinking, along with the girls. this continued from about 10-12. madeline and rachel split a fifth of morgan's. and we all went to bed. then i heard a lot of crashing and banging. i came out to find madeline in the bathroom, rachel in her room. both puking. so i got waters and paper towels and rubbed backs, quinn laughed. they went back to bed, and now i cant wait to go to bed. 4 hours a night for a week=tired.

visitors galore

this last week have been amazing and fun and tiring, filled with old and new friends. ill try to make this short and to the point.

monday my class was cancelled so lorrisa dragged me to a metal show her friend tour managing. we looked up the bands and were not looking forward to it at all especially because we were wearing all pastels. we got there and it was AMAZING. seriously. we had the best time. the guys were amazing, the show was soo entertaining. i stole a set list of the headlining band...Behemoth. there was a band from poland and one from france and they were so nice. over all an amazing night.

tuesday ben, trevor and peter came with emery. i got to hangout with them all day and then kate and i went to the show. the aftershow party ended up back in the bus and a dance party was started. it lasted until about 3am and then, peter, ben, kate and i went to jack in the box. ben bought us all $26 worth of food and we came back and ate it all. ben then fell asleep sitting up and we all went to bed. the next day i made then all banana bread and had the same day all over again, but with halloween and girls in some interesting costumes. emery did a hilarious show where they all dressed as their favorite bible character. then more dance party and getting home late.

the next day quinn got here with melee. quinn, chris, gabe and tony all came over. we talked and laughed and had a great time. quinn stayed over and the next day we all went to get coffee and chat it up. quinn helped us move kate and then madelines parents got here and we finished moving kate. after that we went to the melee show and had a great time. the headliner...matt nathanson did journey's dont stop believin and i was so excited we all sang out hearts out. we all went to dennys after and had lots of food. then they drove me and quinn home. and that brings us to today and now quinns staying until sunday.

San Francisco

from home

tonight i was talking to a co-worker about the city and his friend whos coming to visit and what he should take him to do.

i got home and now im thinking, man, what a wonderful city i live in. i am so lucky. i have had a lot of crap going on that i dont even want to get into, but when it comes down to it i am so lucky. thank you!


what i look at from work

pure craziness

Wow, a lot has been going on lately. Everything that can go wrong pretty much has been. It has actually come to the point where something goes horribly wrong and i just start cracking up...yeah, I think I’m going a little crazy at this point. I’ve been working so much and trying to do homework also that I’m averaging about 3.5-6 hours of sleep a night. Good things have happened too though.

1. I went to see Every Time I Die, which was a complete blast, as always. But I actually took a cab to the show because I was already late and friends were already there. Got to the Warfield $30 later. Once I get there I found out it has been moved to the Fillmore. By this point there’s not way I’m spending another $20 to get back to the other side of town again, so I take the bus. When I finally get there I have to pay for my ticket; the 5 different people who offered to get me in, stuff happened and it didn’t work out. I met up with Zach, Madeline, lo and sally. Sally soon left, so gave me her backstage pass and lo and I started the party. Keith said he'd give every crowd surfer a high five and if he didn’t he'd give them $1 later, so one girl got dropped on the ground and the show stopped to make sure she was ok, but then we continued to rock again.

Lo and her friend's Ryan and Jeff came back to my place. We played cards and everyone feel asleep in my old room and living room.

2. Lo and I went to see The Darjeeling Limited, and oh man, it was good. Since when is Adrien Brody cute? We had the craziest people EVER in the theatre though. I can’t even explain.


3. Went to Courtney and Dave's wedding and had sooo much fun. I lost my ID there, which is weird because I never even took it out of my purse. I think it's the first wedding I’ve been to this year where I didn’t feel slightly depressed at some point. It was good to see family and Dave, welcome to the family! I forgot my camera, so I don't have any pictures to post yet.

4. Jon Reid moved out and i moved into his room. i love it.

5. I have started serving.

6. As much as I don't like rain, I could really go for the sound of it on the window right about now.

stressed

i am stressed on so many different levels it's ridiculous. im actually at that point where i cant sleep and also wake up a couple HOURS before my alarm goes off. when i googled "stressed" this is what came up and they made me laugh a little to myself.
