4:43 pm	current mood: shrunken blazers, clean dishes, sad hour at the bar, feeling that the entire complexity of my being cannot be condensed into a 15 minute interview, craving to play guitar only after everyone has gone to sleep, fresh mozzarella cheese, Scrabble bingos, strangers thinking that I'm a stripper, coffee w/ cream and Splenda, wishing that you wouldn't sleep with your roommates, leggings, bar trivia, Eagle Eye Mariah Carey, knitting, "puss puss", postcards in the mail from friends in NYC, baking cupcakes, AND acoustic Lady Gaga videos (Comment on this)

7:47 pm	I feel oddly aware of being alive today. I don't think I've ever felt this way before. if you've never felt like this, you should try it sometime. here's a step-by-step guide: 1) Eat very little all day, but still feel satisfied. 2) Discuss making your own underwear with your girl-crush (the one with the cute smile). 3) Buy lunch for a pretty stranger. She will ask for your phone number and promise to repay you. 4) Watch an indie movie in a theater. Feel like you are the only one who appreciates it. 5) Walk home in the cold while wearing a big hat. Reflect on your day. Also, someone pooped in the hot tub late Saturday night. I don't think it was me. Update to follow. (Comment on this)

3:11 pm	today is the three year anniversary of bologna saturday. bologna saturday is the epic day of perfection that i last saw jack white ethan and there were haunted houses and new piercings and bonfires and...well....bologna. the day where i woke up under a loft in ogg and fell asleep on a lawn chair in south milwaukee. the day of blue-eyed barrel-chested blondes and the end of that one phase i was in even though i insisted that it was not a phase. and i accidentally sat on his cat. man, there are a lot of shitty covers of that song on youtube. this one is by far the best. in other news, i am very hungover. that new phone i was raving about in the last entry jumped into a toilet and is now broken. as is my heart. how am i supposed to get along without a phone?!? bologna saturday 2005 happened without a cellphone. i suppose i'll be alright.

7:05 pm	what a weird day.  damn. i woke up next to marbs, which is pretty much the best way to wake up.  so good, in fact, then i big spoon fell asleep for another hour, waking up just in time to bike to my morning midterm. i rocked the test.  it was for my fat class about the history of American bodies.  i studied by eating burgers after reading the Jungle and indulging in the "solitary vice" after reading Kellogg.   then blah blah blah boring lectures.  fueled by coffee, no time to eat.  then we watched Back to the Future for film class.  i love that movie.   then i saw WILL LAY!  omg it's will lay!  i haven't seen him around in like 2 years!   i have a new phone that is made for texting with it's slide-out qwerty keyboard, so i immediately texted emmy and marbs, who (i'm sure) were fascinated.   then i really wanted a sub and i knew cousin's had 2 for $5, but i thought it started at 5 pm, but lucky me it started at 4 and i got them. but then -bad news- i may have lost my job.  there's some dramz and i know nothing about it except that i haven't worked in awhile and i may not be able to for awhile.  yikkkes.  ballroom dance still kicks ass.  last week, me and abby from class dance with the seniors at the senior center.  they have a live senior band and there's apple juice and crackers.  i danced with a guy who graduated from my university in 1936.  the old people are adorable in their suspenders and thick glasses.

11:27 pm	oh man i have senioritis something turribul.  i reserved all weekend for work and homework.  when chubby girl from indie queer last week called i was like "uh... two big projects, midterms... [cock-ban'08 is over]" and resigned myself to living in the 'brary. i just don't feel like doing school.  i only like ballroom dance, and sometimes film class.  otherwise it's pointless. i went to the library yesterday with a 4.5 hour block to write my 4-6 page paper before i had to go to ballroom dance practice.  like a monkey at a typewriter, i banged it out in 3.5 hours and then watched "Paris Hilton's my New BFF."  today i set aside the entire day to watch Fritz Lang's "M" and then do a shot breakdown assignment for film class.  I slept in til 1, then hung out with Marbs until 3 and then fell asleep until 9:30 trying to watch this quiet little black and white movie.  oops.  but i got it done anyway.  ln other words, school is not _that_ hard to the point where it's insulting and i just want to work/dance/marby all day every day.   (Comment on this)

6:26 pm	i guess it makes sense that with how much i've been working lately, the only friends i have are work friends. i wake up lonely, which is something new for me. and in my over-airconditioned apartment, i wake up freezing cold. cold and lonely is no way to start one's day. i woke up at 3 pm today after catching up on a week worth's of 3-5 hour night's sleeps. then i walked around downtown trying to find something that would make me happy. the top self-destructive contenders were : coffee, booze, cigarettes, icecream, and piercings. i wanted someone to share in my guilty pleasures, but everyone i called was busy and the rest of my phonebook reads like friend of a friend, awkward hookup, lab partner from three years ago- people you can't really call and ask to go with you to the tattoo parlor on a whim. i ended up getting an iced mocha and sitting in the sun reading my oprah's book club book. christian from work stopped by and gave me my lucky cigarette from last night. and then i felt a lot better. the end. p.s. I'm going to start making this it's from www.twinkiechan.com (Comment on this)

8:19 pm	book meme The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read. 2) Italicize those you intend to read. 3) Underline the books you LOVE. 4) Strike out the books you have no intention of ever reading, or were forced to read at school and hated. 5) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them ( bookishness ) (Comment on this)

10:50 pm	I Thought You Said Summer Is Going To Take The Pain Away I'm back from California. I thought it would be sunny and hot and I could lie by the pool/ocean and get tan and come back skinny and blonde. Instead it was windy, cloudy, and kind of chilly. June Gloom, they call it in San Diego. Put on a hoodie, take it off soon after, then put it back on. I still liked it. There was some drama that will probably make a good story someday, but right now just makes me sad. I got a pair of Cheap Mondays for $9 at Buffalo Exchange and they are two sizes smaller than the last pair that grew out of me. I ate good sushi and saw a baby panda at the zoo. Pictures on facebook, blah blah blah. In today's local news, this is the first summer in Madison where I am glad to be here. At a party Thursday night, some crust punk came up to me and said he wanted to dance with me but didn't want to step on my toes. I was sold. We smoked some cigarettes and then Carol Brady came out and intruded. We saw her last night, too. Jack asked if she was gay. I said I didn't know. Starting next week, I'll be working three jobs. But my schedules are effed and I don't know how many hours those three jobs will provide. I haven't worked with the crackies in three weeks, I have to wait three weeks for the next theater show, and I don't know how much Housing will book me. I have to hand out catering fliers for the crackies. Like Mitch Hedberg says, I could go to 1000 businesses or two dumpsters. Too bad I'm a model employee and will walk all around town handing out menus. Emily's coming to visit at the end of July!!! We're going to get drunk and call Zesty Tim and all the other phone numbers scrawled on napkins that I had nervously asked for when I was 15. Actually, that might be a bad idea. I drunk dialed Uggie Stick Tuna once and it wasn't as fun as I thought it'd be. Does this entry contain adult concepts? I just noticed that there's an adult content screener on this thing. heh.

11:27 pm	i went to the mall today with kym. she needed jeans. i needed to not spend money. i did anyway. we had mega-sushi-happy-fun-times. in our $18 bento boxes were: -4 pieces of sushi -a california roll -veggie/shrimp tempura -dumplings -a scoop of rice -and then a bowl of miso. AMAZING. so good. it was a grab bag of everything i wanted. Then we had green tea ice cream. at target i got some new headphones and a schick quattro shaving gift set. which is the weirdest thing ever. who gives a razor+cartridges as a gift?!? happy mothers' day! or- dear recent graduate, plz shave. actually, this is something my family might do. my lil bro still calls me the dirty hippie. but as my recent shaving gift set purchase indicates, my hairier days are behind me. sad, i know. but now i can use my: -razor -6 cartridges -"tranquil horizons" serene melodies CD -set of 4 scented bath fizzies and be touchably smoove all over.
