Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)

You are apt to have a strong need for emotional freedom. Perhaps you feel trapped in a situation in which you sense that you are being coerced or manipulated into feeling a certain way. If you can distance yourself from the situation, you are likely to see that you are indeed getting caught up in someone else’s drama. Right now it is imperative that you find an outlet where you can express yourself freely without feeling like you have to act a particular way. Think about it!

At work in the nude….yeah

At work in the nude….yeah right.
I am alone here, so everything goes.
Went back to school to pick up the van and to see Amber. She cut her hair short; it looks cute on her. I am still wary of the short cut on women, but Suzanne is going to do it, so I had better get use to it.
Amber gave me a bag of Harry Potter Bertie Bott’s Beans (i.e. jelly beans from Jelly Belly). I was going to hold off, but I am slowly munching on them. Among some of the more interesting flavors in the pack are Black Pepper, Booger, Grass, Horseradish, and Sardine. I think that I will wait until I get home so that I can take pics of them before I taste them. The Booger one is the one that gots me thinking; Did they pick their noses to find out what a booger taste like? And then the new flavors coming this fall include Dirt, Mustard, and Vomit? YUM!!!!!!
I gave Amber the present I got for her at Barnes & Noble. It is a book called Lady Cottingtons Pressed Fairy Book. It’s a pretty funny book with some cool drawings/paintings of pressed faries. She loves it; and no, I am not sucking up for a raise. If I was doing that, then I would get some N*Sync tickets for her and her son to goto.
How bored am I at work? When I went home, I got my StarCraft CD to play here. except I forgot to get the CD-Key, so I can’t install it. It’s probably wise cause I need to read for my paper that’s due soon.
Saw theMaking The Video on MTV….OMG, can we talk about all the extensions in Christina’s hair. Christina gots music skills, and her makeup was good, but she just does not have the body to be a show-girl in that video. Little Kim was good and Mya and Pink were really good. Mya has a nice ass, but I think Pink has the better body and outfits.
O.K., back to do some work….
Just got a call, the warehouse will be closed tomorrow since Peter is sick, Tim is injured (he got into an accident down in L.A.) and Amber foot is broken. What does that mean? that means that every department will be faxing in their list now in a mad rush to get stuff over. **sigh** I had better get ready.

Oy Vey! It’s Monday….

Status so far:
– Peter called in sick, and he does sound sick. So he is home today and might not be in until Wednesday.
– Tim is on vacation until tomorrow.
– Peter didn’t call me at home to let me know that he wasn’t coming in today. So the van is still at school. Actually,it is in front of his house in a two hour parking zone. I won’t be able to get to it in time, so I am trying to call him so that he can move it. If it gets a ticket, then he’s paying, not me.
– Waiting for UPS to come so I can FINALLY get my Escaflowne DVD’s. Yay!!!
– The new computer is ordered. AMD 1.2 Ghz, 60GB HD, DVD. I already have a sound card and a CDRW, so that save some money. The only thing that I forgot is the video card. I am still jumping between which card to get. The question is, “Do I want to be able to watch TV on my computer?” I think I am swinging back to no and just getting a card with TV out so that I can get a TV and hook it up to the computer to watch DVD’s.
– I have school papers coming up. Poop!
O.K. Let me try Peter again and then get some paperwork done. Once UP gets here, I can leave and go pick up the van. I also need to update several things that have happened, including the trip last week. Let me get some work done first.
Oh….Price Is Right is on……

Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)

Not much will happen for you until you consciously decide to give up a few vices in your life that are having a serious effect on your personal well-being. Realize that you don’t have complete control over your life if there are certain things that control you. Try not to fight this truth. Simply accept that these things exist in your world, and understand that you can co-exist without having to surrender to their power.
Current mood: groggy

In hindsight, I should have

In hindsight, I should have not driven out there. I mean, I was already stressing that I haven’t really done much on my papers and I was planning on having them done early, or at least not so last minute.
And when she told me that Shandra was going to be there, that really should have been the warning bell. But I figured that it was important for me to be there as the loyal and loving boyfriend. Besides, I wanted to see her.
God! How can I screw up so bad in such a short period of time. **sigh** I have to apologize to Kimberly too; Oy Vey…even if she accepts my apology, she’ll hate me.
Part of me just wants to get really fucking stoned right now. Peter’s been trying to get me to smoke with him for so long. When I’m finally ready to do it, he’s out of town.
I wish that I was dancing right now. I don’t care if it’s at a club or a rave. I just need to surrender my body to the music and just dance to exhaustion.
Maybe a couple of shot of alcohol would work. Hmmm, I only have Puckers. Not the alcohol I’m looking for. SOme Tequila would be nice about now. Or maybe some Vodka or Whiskey.
**sigh** Drugs and Alcohol aren’t the solution to my madness. If anything they would get me into even more trouble than I’m already in.
POOP!!!!
Well, I guess I’ll do what I always do: Lock the door, change into my sweats and a tee, cover myself in my mink blanket, and put on BT and follow the ambient beat out of this world for awhile…
Current mood: moody
Current music: BT – Blue Skies (w/Tori Amos)

Somebody better find my PMS tea and call my Mama….

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I kick so much warehouse

I kick so much warehouse butt…who needs Peter anyway. 😛
Well almost everything is caught up here. I didn’t touch the stuff that came in UPS today; I figure I would give Peter something to do on Monday. I also need to clean up the gift aisles, but I think that will be my project on monday.
The bookstore closes at 4pm today, so I think that I will leave early then. So I can go and get my oil changed (finally) and go grocery shopping. Should I goto CompUSA or Best Buy to look at scanners? I still have so many photos to scan; pictures that I have and then I stole a photo album from home. Too bad Mew and Mike broke up, maybe I could have gone to Kinko’s in Sac and had him scan them for me for free. Oh well.

So Sunday Morning, we crawl

So Sunday Morning, we crawl out of bed and head over to Oakland to catch our flight. We wanted to arrive early, but ended up getting their late. I love flying Southwestern; the whole cattle/sheep mentallity on boarding their flight is just so much fun **rolling my eyes**. They hand out bording passes and load up people in gropus of thirty, but it just ends up with everybody herding around the gate, whether they have number 1 or 130. If it was me, I would make everybody get in line according to the number that they had and board them one by one. But that is just the Bitch in me talking.
We we lucky to get seats next to each other on the plane though and it was a mostly uneventful flight. The thing that sucked was that our seat were nonreclineable since they were the seats next to the middle emergency doors. So it was kinda uncomfortable, but survivable.
We made it to Seattle where my dad was waiting to pick us up. I love my dad in the fact that he is so reliable, among other things. Anyway, the highlight of the trip back to the house was when my dad and I were talking and he missed the exit to get on the South Hwy 5 freeway. So we are on the crub next to the exit and my dad wants to back up to get on the exit. This is with traffic flying by us. I convinced him that we should just keep going to the next exit and turn around there to get on the freeway. Suzanne and I were freaking out, but we were cool and quiet.
O.K. Faxes are comming in, so I guess I should make an appearance on the cameras and pack this order. More story time later.

Anyway, we hung out for

Anyway, we hung out for awhile, but then left to goto Suzanne’s house so that she could pack….I was going somewhere with this, but I don’t know where. I think I was trying to work in the fact that Suzanne and I had dinner at Shogun Teriakyi in Vacaville, cause that is important later in the story. But I think we went to Shogun on Friday, not Saturday. We did, cause after dinner, we went to WalMart where I bought some Tigger underwear (I really need to post my underwear collection online) and Suzanne got some Tigger stuff to that was really cute. 😉 And then after that, we went to see Someone Like You with Ashley Judd, Greg Kinnear, Hugh Jackman, Ellen Barkin, and Marisa Tomei. It was pretty good movie, but I think that Bridget Jones Diary will be funnier.
Shogun is this japanese fast food restaurant that I used to goto all the time when I lived in Vacaville. When they first opened up, my familiy would eat there almost every night. Anyway, when I come up to Vacaville, I like to stop there to eat. I had their Tonkastu and Teriakyi Chicken plate and I think Suzanne had a california roll plate. It was pretty good stuff and we were having a fun time. In fact, that whole night was pretty fun. But that was Friday night, and it only has a little bit to do with the trip to see my parents

Meet The Parents

Let’s see, where to begin. We spent last Saturday, which was Suzanne’s last day of work with her coworkers, Debbie and Cheryl. We went to Baskin Robbins in Fairfield and I was just a total terror to the trainne that was helping us. I am so bad to them when I goto Baskin Robbins. I’m not mean, I just ask for hard and difficult stuff. With this girl, I asked for a Strawberry Daquri Freeze. A freeze is just like a shake, except that they use either soda water or Sprite instead of milk. I guess they don’t make them anymore cause they are not on the menu, but I went ahead and asked for one anyway. She thought I was crazy or something. The other person who was working knew what I wanted, but she was with another customer. Well, I just decided to change my mind and so I ordered a Cappuchino Blast made with Mint Choc Chip instead of Vanilla. Again, the girl thought that I was psycho, but she was able to make it. The cool thing about trainies is that they are still not used to scooping the ice cream. They are only suppose to give you a 4oz scoop; but with trainies, you usually end up with a 6 – 10 oz scoop depending on how bad at scooping they are. Actually, I didn’t do my famous trick of asking for a scoop of World Class Chocolate. It is regular choc and white choc swirled together. The thing is that I just ask for the white part. GOD, it’s not that hard to get a scoop of the white part, but to some BR trainies, you’d think that I had ask them to solve a complex physics problem.
