my spirits were up to their old tricks last night.

i was sitting on the couch, trying to watch a movie, when suddenly the lamp right next to me, trembled and the lamp shade fell to the base. nothing was around, no cats, i was not touching it. a bit later, i saw what appeared to be an extremly white arm reach around what was my old roommates door frame and slam the bedroom door. hard. when i opened it up, one of my cats was sitting in the middle of the bed that was left behind, staring at the door. the bathroom door was still open, so he could have walked through the bathroom, into my room and back into the living room. i heard footsteps walking in the bathroom, and random noises through out the night. i slept on the couch.

(blink?)

i came home tonight after shopping with selena for the stuff to make the jewelry for her wedding, and mike is missing. the front door was open, lights on, and there is no mike to be found. all in all very strange. hmmm.

casey is leaping at the screen door trying to catch a bug. i'm hoping it's on the outside of the door and not inside. *shudder*

my mom gave us a new couch yesterday. well, not new exactly, just "gently used". lol. it was my grandfathers before he passed away, so it's been sitting in the garage for about two years. cleaned it up, and all in all it's a great piece. i wouldn't mind getting a slip cover for it, but for the time being it's nice not to sit on the couch with your feet pulled up next to you and have them tear the upholstery. lol. the only thing is, sam pissed on the other couch, so when we pulled the new one in, he started sniffing it right away and we had to put him in the garage for a few days until rick can come and pick him up. i feel bad, but i won't have him ruining any more of the furniture.

crushed my hand in between the couch and the porch railing. the side of it is all puffy and bruised. hurts like hell. oww.

mike, richard and i watched serial mom last night. i was thinking about that movie a few weeks ago and then i went over to becca's house, and i think she mentioned that she bought it. saw it in the 2/$11 bin at walmart and picked it up. the only thing is, i totally remember it being waaaaaay funnier the first time i saw it. oh well, it's not like it was expensive.

after paying the electic bill tomorrow...i will be COMPLETLY broke for the week. the car payment will be late, and i'll prolly have to beg money off of my mom to eat. mmm...sounds like my idea of a great week.

mike, richard and i went to see kill bill vol. 2 tonight. i loved it. after some discussion it was decided that while not quite as good as the first kill bill, it was still worth the money to see it in the theater. i maintain that it was funnier than the first, but a bit more drawn out. i'm thinking that when it comes out on video i need to invest in the box set that i'm assuming that is going to come out. i also need to get the soundtrack.

in other news i think that people need to get online and talk to me damnit!

yesterday and last night was fun. i went over to my mom's house to take her out to lunch since i haven't seen her in like a week but when i got there, she wasn't home. went in anyways, made myself at home and my aunt called and asked me to pick up eric from school. she didn't bother to tell me that i should wait 25 minutes before leaving. so i get there and have all this time before he gets out. head over to walmart, talk to mike for a few and go back and get my cuz. turns out that he has free time (he's 16, on the bracelet, house arrest...we'll not go there) so i decide since i haven't really hung out with him in like a month that we should hang out and go shopping and stuff. head to this new store where i found the greatest jeans ever made! and a new sweatshirt that says spoiled beyond belief. yeah...that so me. pig out on chocolate, do some more shopping, got in a fight with the lady at wisconsin craft market. i go in this craft store (yes, i'm a dork and do crafts, bite me) and i'm looking at these rocks to make pendents out of. the sign says...and i quote "small bag $.49 &w/rocks $3.49, large bag $1.49 &w/rocks $3.49" so i think to myself, might as well get the big bag since they are the same price. fill up said bag with rocks, pick up a stuffed moose, and head to the check out. the lady at the register said she didn't know how to ring the rocks up so she was going to call the manager. i said no biggie, i'm not in a hurry. manager arrives and tells her to charge me $1.49 for the bag and $2.99 for the rocks. i very politely explain that that is not what the sign says, and she argues with me.
ME: the sign says $1.49 for the bag and WITH the rocks it's $3.49
BITCH: no it doesn't
ME: yes...it does.
BITCH: NO IT DOESN'T
ME: YES...IT DOES!
BITCH: *goes and gets the sign* see...*points to the sign*...yes it does
ME: *leans over the counter and speaks slowly so as not to confuse her* no, it says that everything is $3.49...that's the price i should get it for.
BITCH: well, the sign is wrong, that's not the price
ME: well, you have to give it to me for that price
BITCH: no i don't
ME: *getting irritated* listen bitch, i work retail, i know how it works. you have to give it to me for the price on the sign. BITCH starts to interrupt, which i hate, and i talk over her. now, i work in customer service and if a customer at my store brought me a product that was priced wrong, the customer is give the item at the signed price. otherwise that is false advertising....which is ILLEGAL. now, i know it's only a fucking dollar, but that is not the point. the point is that you are wrong and i'm right.
CASHIER: up until now she has been quite. looks at manager and says, we have to give it to her for that price. she's right you know. manager get's pissed and says no. cashier gives it to me anyways. i win.

went back to my mom's...hung out with her for awhile. got home and mike tells me that bob called and that he wants us to head down to j. fridays house for a party. FINALLY convince mike to go and as we are leaving, richard, mike's boyfriend, shows up. gravy. richard and mike both rock, so we get in the car and drive to friday's house. get there and everyone is gone except friday and trisha. apparently there was drama and everyone left. called bob and he tells me to come down to the liquid supply company, this bar. show up and make bob order me a beer for the inconvienance he's put me through. actually finish the beer (which anyone that knows me will tell you is an amazing occurance) and then finished up with a red headed slut. totally drunk by this point. blah blah blah blah. shot the shit with friends, went home and got food and hung out with the boys.

woke up this morning and hung out with mike for a bit, went to work at like 3 and came home about 10. of course the boys are asleep so here i sit online typing in great detail the last two days. :)

i saw an old man driving a station wagon yesterday. he was wearing a cowboy hat and had a bumber sticker that said "i think i need a spankin'"

i've decided that i need a digi cam to take pictures of all of the funny shit that i see on a day to day basis. of course i really don't have the money for one...but the thought is nice.

funny things that happened recently.

a nun came into the store that i work in to buy a vacuum. she ended up getting a dirt devil. i thought this was hilarious...but when i told my boss...he didn't get it. all i could think was nun devil nun devil. lol.

i saw the little ceasers van going through the drive thru at mcdonalds...now what exactly does that say about little ceasers pizza if the employees, who i'm sure get free food, are willing to pay for mcdonalds?

mike and i ordered dinner and i was paying for him since he bought last time. so we get our food, talk and whatnot and i go to pay the bill...only to find out that they don't take personal checks. and my check card snapped in half like a month ago and i haven't gotten my new one, mike forgot his wallet at home, and i have no cash on me. so i had to humble myself and call my mom to bring me money from neenah. so then i give the guy a 100 dollar bill for a $28.88 check...and he asks me if i want change. no...i thought i would let you keep it...consider it half your fucking rent. my god.

(blink?)

[19 Apr 2004|11:38pm]
went and cashed my check today before work. while i was there i thought i would mention that my new check card...which i ordered about a month ago never came in the mail...to ANY of my old addys. so of course they now have to reorder me a new one...which is going to take forever. bastards.

but the good news is....only one eye is twitching.

(blink?)

[19 Apr 2004|11:24pm]
my back is absolutly killing me. it's like someone is grabbing the muscles and stretching them out. grrr.

on a good note...today was a beautiful day. i was outside on my last break and the sun had just set and the sky was this amazing shade of intense blue with blue/black clouds. gorgeous.

in the past three days i've gotten a promotion, lost my check card, managed to spend way more money than i thought i did and discovered that my car is fucked up. woo.

i woke up this morning and i couldn't move my head. ended up calling into work around noon and around six o'clock i was finally able to turn my head slightly.

my trip to south dakota rocked. the roads are pink there. i'm completly enthralled with that. and when the sun sets the light that hits them makes the pink even brighter. i'm pissed cause i was stupid and forgot to take pictures of it. meh. i did get some amazing photos of sunsets arcross the lake and of the HILLS and whatnot. yes, hills. for those of you who live in or near WI, you will understand why i was enthralled with the hills.

during the 9.5 hour drive home, we stopped to eat dinner at perkins about three hours from home, during which i managed to lose the keys. yep, i'm a smart monkey. so we had to call a locksmith to open the doors even though i knew i hadn't locked them in the car. dude opens the car and sure enough they aren't in there. went in and searched the restaurant again and stacy just happened to see some light wink off the keys as they were stuck between the back and the seat of someone elses booth. apparently i knocked into the booth and they fell of my purse and into booth without me noticing. so there went $47.48 down the tubes. bah. oh well though, all in all the trip was great fun.

i'm feeling a little lost the past few days. where to start...

i can't figure out how to fix a problem with a great person. i feel like i'm being avoided. i wish...well, i wish alot of things...

my mom ran into my biological grandparents the other day. it's all very strange. i haven't seen them since i was about two. i don't remember them at all...and i haven't seen my biological father since i was in fifth grade. court ordered visitation. and before that i hadn't seen him since i was two or three. anyways...my mom ran into them on a fluke and they mentioned that my half brother has been looking for me for awhile, but he was coming up with dead ends because i was adopted by my step dad when i was thirteen and my last name isn't the same. so my mom gave them my phone number to give to him...and told them that it was up to me if i wanted to talk to him or whatever. so that night while i was at work my grandparents called to talk to me. so my mom told them that she was going to keep their number on the caller id and let me know that they had called. i can't decide what to do. i mean...it would be strange if they called and i talked to them...but even stranger if i called them. i have nothing to say to them. no common memories or anything. *sigh* i don't know what to do.

and then i found out that the father of my godchild (chris) is cheating on jessica (the mother of my godchild). so i'm upset about that. and then my mom tells me that apparently the whole family is surprised that he didn't make a move on me because he's had a thing for me for almost three years. totally floored me. i had no idea...and now i'm uncomfortable with the thought. i know that i didn't purposly lead him on...but i can't help but wonder if i did something and he thought that it was more than it was.

never ever again will i borrow a substancial amount of money from anyone. i feel like everyone is fucking beating down my door. every damn pay day...kerrie is right there with her hand out. so because i've paid her off faster than we thought i was going to...she told me that if i could give her like $200 last friday that we would call it even...therefor knocking off $45. awesome. only shit came up and of course i was $50 short, so she said that that was cool and that she would let me pay the money this week and we would call it even. so, today is payday and of course she calls me from work, even though i work with her. suddenly i owe her $100 again. so i told her no, reminded her of the deal that we worked out and she was like "fine. whatever...i just want it over with." *snarles* if i had the extra money...i would throw it in her face and tell her to suck it. and of course i now have to pay for my bills and my ticket out of this check. here's hoping i have enough for gas and smokes.

[ music | Tool - Aenima (6:39) ]

*curses* sometimes...life just sucks. ugh. the one boss that i like at work might be transfering to southern wisconsin at the end of the month. that blows. and all because of some cunt who doesn't know how to do her job and an asshole manager who lets people dictate to him. here...lemme start at the begining.

lisa, the cunt, started at the store way after everyone else did and is for some reason one of our assistant managers. now, no one really liked her all that much right from the begining. she's one of those people that is always in a pissy mood and she goes back to don, the spineless idiot, with every little thing that she sees and hears. she has a shitty attitude and thinks that she is better than everyone else. she never gives praise...just tells you what you are doing wrong. berates you in front of customers and other employees...for things that are blatently untrue. sits on her ass all day in the office and never does any actual hands on work. and she seems to feel that it's alright for her to bend the rules...but no one else. and those are the things that i hate about here that i can think of off hand.

then there is don, the spineless twit. he's the manager of the store. no one really likes him either. he's one of those people who promises you the world, then gives you shit. tells you one thing...then takes it back and says he never promised you full time hours and stuff. dude seriously has alzhimers or some shit. tells you to do something, ten minutes later says that he never said that. he, too, berates you in front of customers and employees. mumbles constantly so you can't understand a fucking word that is coming out of his mouth....and then get's mad when you ask him to repeat himself. grrr.

and finally there is mike, the other assistant manager. he's the shiznit. completly cool, gives praise, gets his stuff done, helped me move, and an all around nice guy.

now, lisa was told to do the schedualing. so she does it and does it completly wrong. funny thing that considering she doesn't have a freakin clue about what's going on. so obviously people are pissed about their scheduals and are complaining to mike...who we all go to with our problems. so he talks to don and don tells him to do the schedual. so he redoes it and lisa throws a tantrum. yes, she really does act like she's three. so mike goes to help me move, and don tells her that we are going to go by her schedual now.

so mike tells him that that is bullshit and if he wants him to do his job he has to start listening to him more. tells don that he is going to put in for a transfer if he's not allowed to do his job. so don placates him and tells him that things will go his way. tells him that he agrees with mike. and then promptly tells lisa that she is right. so...now mike has put in for a transfer...all because he was doing his job and the cunt is a whiney bitch.

so....today the employees were talking and we have decided that we are all going to call corporate and get her ass fired. and if mike leaves...we're leaving as well. the regional manager is coming in tomorrow and alot of people are going to be talking to him and letting him know how they feel. because she is a trouble starter and likes to bend rules to suit her and when other people do the same thing they get in trouble for it. connie talked to don today and pretty much told him how unhappy we all were with it...and it sounds like he might get rid of her...but if he doesn't...i'll be out of there so fast his head will spin. *nods* yep.

and that is why today sucked.

Six of the seven dwarfs are sitting around the house one day when Sleepy rushes in and says, "Guess what guys, I've won a trip to see the Pope!" Everyone gets all excited and chants, "We finally get to ask him, we finally get to ask him."

The next day, they are standing in front of the Pope, Dopey out in front of the other six. All the other six start pushing Dopey and saying, "Go ahead, Dopey, ask him, ask him!"

The Pope looks at Dopey and asks, "Do you have a question to ask me, young man?"

Dopey looks up shyly and says, "Well, yes."

The Pope tells him to go ahead and ask. Dopey asks, "Well, do....do they have nuns in Alaska?"

The Pope replies, "Well, yes, I'm sure we have nuns in Alaska."

The others all keep nudging Dopey and chanting, "Ask him the rest, Dopey, ask him the rest!"

The Pope asks Dopey if there's more to his question, and Dopey continues, "Well, uh, do they have, uh, black nuns in Alaska?"

To which the Pope replies, "Well, my son, I think there must be a few black nuns in Alaska, yes."

Still not satisfied, the others keep saying, "Ask him the last part, Dopey, ask him the last part!"

The Pope asks Dopey, "Is there still more to your question?"

To which Dopey replies, "Well, uh, yeah..... are there, uh, are there any midget black nuns in Alaska?"

The startled Pope replies, "Well, no, my son, I really don't think there are any midget black nuns in Alaska."

At this, Dopey turns all kinds of colors, and the others start laughing, and yelling, "Dopey screwed a penguin, Dopey screwed a penguin!"

i succeed in completly humiliating myself today. i went to the store with my mother and our cashier was one of those people where you can't decide if they are male or female. so i looked at the nametag and read "jonny". cool...it's a dude. so my mom and the cashier are talking and my mom says something about "her" and i say "he". of course...the cashier goes "no, she". turns out the nametag said jenny. grrrr. i feel really bad for her. *bangs head on my desk* not to mention that i'm completly embarrassed as well. *sigh* oh well. not much i can do about it now.

i've decided that i am going to torment my neighbors until late evening by listening to my music as loud as the computer will let me. and let me tell you...the speakers on this thing kick ass...not as good as mine...but good none the less. my toes are vibrating....and i'm listening to holly mcnarland at the moment. muahahaha. *peeks out the window* awww...some of their friends are leaving. *snickers* i wonder if i was the cause. but i'm tormenting myself as well by sitting in the den and smelling their cook out. :( i want a burger or a brat too. but the good news is....my mom is grilling out soon!!!! so HA! apparently i'm feeling vindictive at the moment.

was actually early for work today. lol. decided i hate my assistant manager lisa. stupid people who don't know what they are doing and who expect other people to do their job shouldn't talk shit about the employees that actually work hard and push inventory. *grumbles* cunt. then i found out that only 4-5 people other than management are going to be offered full time positions. hmm...interesting considering that when i was hired i was pretty much told that i was guarunteed a full time position. granted...i found out that there weren't going to be giving everyone full time quite awhile ago...but today i was talking to mike and i asked him if i should look for another part time job. so he said that he didn't know if i was in the running for full time or not but that even if i got it it would only be like 30 hours a week. but you know...right now that's really all i want anyways. so i'm slightly depressed about it...but i guess i shouldn't be until i find out what's going on. ugh.

i cut my finger the other day. not bad really, just at the bend on the bottom of my pinkie finger. so it started to hurt pretty bad today...come to find out it's infected. like oozing and everything. ewwww...gross.

ahhh...i forgot to mention my wee temper tantrum at work today. *laughs* so, the one thing guaranteed to piss me off more than almost anything is being pinched. grrr. i hate it!!!! so, kerrie knows this and since no one ever sees me angry...she tries to get a reaction out of me....so all day long she was pinching me. driving me insane. i wanted to choke her. lol. so, after warning her to knock it off like 8 times...i picked up a soup can and hit her with it. lol. and while that stopped her for a littlw while, she of course started again...so i had to throw a bottle of gas treatment at her. and while i did end up with my wrist and arm bruised from pinches, she walked away with a bigger bruise and that makes me the winner. muahahaha.

[ music | holly mcnarland...*in the air tonight* ]

today was one of those days where a million small things go wrong...but all in all it turns out alright.

woke up this morning after very little sleep, got dressed and rushed around getting ready, only to find out that my mom lied to me about the time so that i would actually get up. how cruel. clever, but cruel. so i'm sitting at the table drinking coffee and talking and suddenly i realize that if i don't leave now i'm going to be late. rush around the house collecting the nessesities of the day, walk out to my car and realize i forgot my damn wallet in the house. go back in, grab said wallet, go back out to the car...only to figure out that i left my keys in the house. *sighs* by the time i'm actually on my way...i have to drive like freakin dick trickle to make it on time...only of course everyone on the highway is doing the speed limit for once in their lives. hmmph. get to work...and the doors are locked and no one can hear me knocking. stand there for fifteen freakin minutes and kerrie pulls up and we walk to the back. start working and suddenly i realize that i didn't have to be in until 9. *bangs my head on the wall* an hour and a half of sleep...gone. it works out though because now i can leave early. so we work all day, go out for lunch and come back and find that mike, our manager, has set kerrie's windshield blades straight up. lol. kerrie decides that she is going to get him back... and wants to take window paint to his truck. i then come up with the idea to nix the window paint and go straight for vasiline. muahahaha. his windshield, drivers side window, rear window, and underneath the door handles are as we speak covered in vasiline. tee hee. he thought it was funny as hell, but now i know that revenge is going to be sought...so does anyone know of any good practical jokes to play?

on a side note...i'm hungry...should i splurge and go for subway for my family and i? or should i wait until mom wakes up and see what her ideas on dinner are?

REAL LIFE STORY NUMBER 1

Linda Burnett, 23, was visiting her inlaws, and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Several people noticed her sitting in her car with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back of her head. One customer who had been at the store for a while became concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda's eyes were now open, and she looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay, and Linda replied that she'd been shot in the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in for over an hour.
The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Linda refused to remove her hands from her head. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head. A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She initially passed out, but quickly recovered and tried to hold her brains in for over an hour until someone noticed and came to her aid.

And, yes, Linda is a blonde


The new priest was so nervous at his first mass, he could hardly speak. Before his second appearance in the pulpit, he asked the Monsignor how he could relax. The Monsignor said, 'Next Sunday, it may help if you put some vodka in the water pitcher. After a few sips everything should go smoothly.'
The next Sunday the new priest put the suggestion into practice and was able to talk up a storm. He felt great! However, upon returning to the rectory he found a note from the Monsignor:

Dear Father,

1. Next time sip rather than gulp.
2. There are 10 commandments, not 12.
3. There are 12 disciples, not 10.
4. We do not refer to the Cross as the 'Big T'.
5. The recommended grace before meals is not 'Rub-a-dub-dub, thanks for the grub. Yeah God!'.
6. We do not refer to our Savior, Jesus Christ and his Apostles as 'J.C. and the Boys'.
7. David slew Goliath, he did not 'Kick the shit out of him'.
8. Moses parted the water at the Red Sea, he didn't pass water.
9. We don't refer to Judas as 'El Finko'.
10. The Pope is consecrated, not castrated, and we don't refer to him as 'The Godfather'.
11. When Jesus broke the bread at the Last Supper he said, 'Take this and eat it, for it is my body', he did not say 'Eat me'.
12. David was hit by a rock and knocked off his donkey, he wasn't 'stoned off his ass'.
13. The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost are never referred to as 'Big Daddy, Junior, and the Spook'.
14. It is always the Virgin Mary, never 'Mary with the Cherry'.
15. Last, but not least, next Wednesday there will be a Taffy-Pulling contest at St. Peter's, not a Peter-Pulling contest at St. Taffy's.

is it wrong to want to wring your boss's neck? how about if i want to strangle him with trouser socks? ugh.

so i get up for work this morning...after falling back asleep and only having 20 minutes to get ready. so as i'm walking out the door i find out that i have to take the guy who stole my bed last night into town, therefor making me have to scarf my breakfast down. grrr. so i get to work and walk into the middle of a meeting. so don, my boss, gets all pissed off and the two other people and myself for interupting. it's not like we were late or anything. so he's telling us how shitty the store looked last night. *starts to get angry* umm...hello...we were grossly understaffed. not to mention that we had one of the busiest days since we opened...with only five people on staff. so he is talking about how the cashiers are a bunch of fuck ups...all the while looking at me. now, if i were such a bad cashier, why in the hell do i have one of the best scanning percentages, and i've only ever been over or under on my drawer twice? and then he makes an example of me yet again by telling us how not to price things by hand. hmmm...MIKE FUCKING TOLD ME TO DO IT THAT WAY!!!! *takes a deep breath* yeah. and this was all within an hour of me waking up. and the day doesn't get better.

i'm working off of flat beds with brent, kicking ass at getting this shit out on the floor...and he's bitching cause not enough freight is getting worked. *looks at the shovel, pictures wacking him in the skull* lunch rolls around and of course i offer to pick up everyone something from mickey d's, and they were so packed i wanted to cry. i'm late getting back...only to walk in the door and get slammed with customers on my lane. doo dee doo...flash 3 hours ahead. don is in an uproar and no one is quite sure why. come to find out we are not working as fast as he thinks we should. so he takes his frustrations out on me. yelling at me for other people's fuck ups. so go to work...lingerie is completly fucked...and so is domestics. he's threatening us with having to stay two hours over store close. now, i've been working 9.5 hours...fuck that. so at the end of the night...i'm counting my drawer and he's acting like nothing is wrong. bastard.

call kerrie after work cause we were supposed to hang out....and she's not answering her phone. pfft. that's cool cause i'm tired and just want to go home and relaxe. so i get home, have to run ten thousand errends...get home...only to discover that i've gotten my period. (sorry guys...i know that you didn't want to know, but i'm illustrating how shitty my day has been) which means i have to go out AGAIN to get...stuff. come back home...sit down on the computer...and my thrice damned fucking neighbors and pounding so loud in their garage that i can hear them through closed windows and over my music. meh.

strange day. i was on my way to the apartment this morning, crusing along at 80, just keeping up with traffic on the highway, when a state trooper pulls up on the on ramp. so everyone lays off the gas and coasts by him, like he doesn't notice. lol. but then he goes in reverse and parks his car so that he's hidden from the highway. sneaky bastard. at least now i know that they hide out there. muahahaha. they thought they had me fooled.

becca and i were going to watch a movie, but when i got there we decided it was to nice out to stay in the house, so we went shopping instead. lol. picked up a new pair of boots. super cute and only three dollars. when we got back home we sat out at the picnic table and ate crackers and cheese. heheh.

went to work, was told i was going on a register and then told to go work stock. so i spent a few hours stocking heavy boxes of food. bah. then i was told to mark down all of the summer statues. just out of curiosity...do y'all realize how freakin heavy those suckers are when you're pulling them off of shelves, flipping them over, repricing them and putting them back on the shelves? realized i couldn't reach the ones on the top shelf, made brandon do the grabbing and flipping while i priced them. muahahaha.

froze my ass off on the way home...ate the ice cream mom bought me and was tackled by the dog. me thinks she pierced my liver. :(
