i hate people that don't read. i have decided that i can tell what sort of people read, and what sort don't. i don't care how much you know about books, if you are typing and you type "should of" instead of "should've", that means you don't read, or need to start paying attention.

I JUST CALLED THE CREDIT CARD PEOPLE AND THEY GAVE ME UNTIL THE 9TH! HOOHOO!

now i can get down to business that i wanted to address:
kill bill 2.

sean and i both agree that vo. 1 and vol. 2 would have been much more satisfctory as ONE volume because there was one very important thing that i forgot about. i don't know where the rumor got started that there is a huge, long, awesome fight at the end...but there isn't. this half of the film isn't as bloody as the first, not even close. what death there is, is GREAT though. yowza. i can't wait to see it again. so anyway, i asked sean which one he liked more, then he reminded me that it's only one film, just shown in 2 parts and i felt stupid. i think this one half was funnier than the other one, and it explains the story a LOT more. i want to say more about it, but i really can't and not give the story totally away. you do hear her name though, finally. i can't wait until the DVD comes out so i can watch it all at once.

[ music | i found my old glassjaw CD. ]

goddamnit, i've done it again. i just looked at the calendar to see what i could do today, and i seem to have overlooked where it says VISA BILL DUE TODAY! on today's date. needless to say, i have $1 and some change in my pocket and the bank is closed already, and i think my account only has like $4 in it. jesus fucking christ. this is ridiculous. i really need to get my shit together. not believing the calendar (i feel like i just sent them a check last week), i got my statement out and sure enough, it says april 3. i need $10 to cover the minimum payment. i didn't get paid this week because i forgot to sign my time card 2 weeks ago, so that means i haven't been paid in 2 weeks, and i won't get paid for another 2. my dad gave me $50 last night... i ate, i paid about $14 for apartment stuff (anne and i each paid half of the total, we bought a mat, a rug and some washy things). i had $20 left today. i went to KFC (i'm still not sure why) and i gave sean $10 so he could get gas to go to work since he gives me gas money all the time. why can't i ever just get some money and keep it? i'm a bum, and now i'm going to be a bum with a low credit rating. fuck.

i guess i'm moving in with anne and moni this summer! i just talked to my advisor to see if i could transfer and he said "you're such a good student, i don't see why they wouldn't accept the transfer right away! you should get a letter in 2-3 weeks" so i'm allllll set! i guess that means i'm not moving to california anymore, which is a bummer... i'm just not sure if i'm really ready for it. okay, i'm less than unsure, i am VERY unsure that i could handle it. moving out for the first time is hard enough, i'm supposing, without moving to one of the biggest cities in the US, without even visiting it first. ugh. i really really want to go :(. maybe i can get a job at the MAIN lib'ary since i already work at the newark campus one, that would be awesome. i love my job, really. i'm sure i'd actually have to work at main though, and the lack of any sort of slogging is the reason i like my job so much. i have a question: don't retail stores understand that we're not all born with retail experience?! how can every retail store expect experience if they won't give anyone WITHOUT the experience a job? i mean, don't we all have to learn somewhere? ridiculous. fuck you, retail. i have been walking to school all week since my car has been broken for almost a month now. i sort of like it. the grass was all swampy today though since it rained yesterday and my jeans got all muddied up. boo.

i went to north carolina for spring break with my mom and my grandy and my brother.  it was very fun and we played scrabblez . then on the way home they dropped me off in lexington to hang out with gwale  and kyle  and we went to see mates of state together then i stayed at kyle's house and gwale drove me home the next day and dale and kyle had dance party 2004 in the car then they dropped me off at sean's   and drove 4 hours back home.  how very very very very very nice of them.  i missed sean a lot and we were supposed to see mates of state on friday too but then we didn't go and sean made me the best CD ever (lou reed, elvis costello, refused, chamberlain, tindersticks, etc.) and we went to don pablo's and watched eternal sunshine and i liked it more than i like most movies then i came home today and now i am sitting and i have to go back to school on monday.  i am still moving to LA.  i am very scared.

well, i've been thinking about moving to california for about 2 weeks now and i didn't really talk to anyone about it until today when i asked sean what he thought about me moving there, and i asked him if he would still want to be with me even if i was in california for school, and he said that he wouldn't see me at all so he didn't see the point in staying together, and i said, "but you love me, right?" and he said, "i'll love you when you come back." do i have a right to be hurt by that statement, or should i just learn to live with the fact that if i leave, people are going to forget about me? i don't know. it's a nice opportunity to get away, live with some people that i like a lot, and go somewhere where it's warm all the time. the deal is, dale asked if i wanted to go to california and get out of here, and some of his friends also asked if i was going... i didn't really think seriously about it at first, but i think now i'd really like to. it's a really tough decision though... but it sort of made me realize that if sean doesn't even want to stay with me after i leave, how much is he really into being with me now?? he obviously doesn't love me as much as i thought he did and i guess that makes things a little easier since i won't have to worry about hurting his feelings by leaving ohio anymore, since he really doesn't want to be with me anyway. at least that's how i see things. i just need some advice.

oookay! last night, m'dale-san surprised me at work, then we went to Brew's and got some quality dinnerrrr and THEN i drove him around and showed him 'the sights of newark'...meaning i drove him around and we looked at stupid stuff. then we went to meijer and wal-mart! then we got to my house, and as soon as we walked in, i KNEW my dad was drunk. (Laura: he was hanging out with your dad, that's why ;) the mikes are a bad influence on each other) as soon as dale came in, my dad offered him a beer and embarassed me a lot. jesus christ. dale looks like a NASA space control guy from the 70's. it's true.



this dale-san. then he left my house at like 2 and drove to kentucky.

i have a history exam in like, 18 minutes. hopefully i don't fail out and ruin my life. okay, here goes.

i am at work.

i like playing on the internet here because it's all faaassssttt. this weekend was fun. i went to akron to visit dale again and we went to his friends' house (they are married and nice and dale is moving to california with them in may) then we went out to dinner with them and then we went to this weird party... like... it was the party of someone he worked with at best buy and the guy's dad was there and his little brother... sooo there was an age range of like... 13-60. it was soooo weird but i think i was too drunk to notice for a while and some girl was talking to this guy and she was like, "how old are you?" and he was like "24" and she was like, "i'm 14, want to see my boobs?" then i yelled "HEEEEY SLUT!" and dale had to hold me back from fighting with her because she was disgusting. we left and then dale fell in the snow and then we drove to his house and got lost on the way there then i went to bed. the next day we went thrifting and i bought the best painting ever for $5 and someday i will show it to you. then we went to this place and they have a computer and you touch the screen to tell it what you want on yer sammich and it's really neat. i got a tuna sammich and dale got some sick barbecue thing. and then we ate our lunches at a park and then i went home. i went out to dinner with sean mcsean at the japhouse and i drank SAKEEEEEE and it is SO NASTY but it does the ol' trick. so then i ate dinner and we went to kevin's and watched the chappelle marathon and then we went home and went to bed. then i woke up and TRIED to drive home but my car is being a real prick and it won't shift higher than second gear (about 35 MPH) now. i'm glad that that developed in the last 10 minutes of my drive home and not while i was on the highway though, that would have sucked. maybe my daddy will get me a new car. that's all, work is boring, alrighhhht.

this week has been totally shitty. i have been feeling bad since monday, i can't eat anything or stand up without almost passing out, so i went to the doctor this morning and she said that i have a viral throat infection and that i shouldn't do anything for the next few days... i had plans goddamnit :( sean and i were supposed to go see A Hard Day's Night at the theater (i have the DVD but it just isn't the same), i was supposed to visit dale on friday and then go out for japanese on saturday with seanaroo. there are some other reasons that this week has relly sucked but i don't want to put them on here because it's personal business. ughhh.
