So I’m doing the random

So I’m doing the random thing, looking for new journals that are not “celebrity RPG” journals when I come across this journal and this entry. OMG! $50 a week just to wash dishes and to do chores around the house!?! Are you kidding me? OMG I was lucky to get $5 a week from my parents for chores. And she F*cking 18 and she is still getting an allowance. Hello, how about a job? I mean, my parents helped me out and stuff, but never to the tune of $50 a week. I don’t know, maybe I’m old and showing my age, but reading that just shocked the hell out of me.

had a dream that Suzanne

had a dream that Suzanne and I were spending the night at Brent’s house. There was this expensive Fuji camera that Suzanne had that Brent was trying to get. So Suzanne slept with it and I was blocking Brent from getting it. This was all happening in Brent’s bed by the way. I’m not sure what it all meant.

Listening to some soothing house

Listening to some soothing house music on the radio; def helping to fix my mood. Unfortunately, now that I’m feeling better, I’m feeling hungry. What do I have to eat? Instant Oatmeal and Cup Ramen. O.K. I also have ravioli and rice, but I would have to cook that stuff. Maybe I should go grocery shopping; the Safeway on Mission is open 24hrs. Don’t think that I’m in that good of a mood. Actually, I resisting the urge to goto Burger King to get a whopper and a shake. It’s just a small urge, so I think that I will be able to contain myself.
