okay...
so...scarlett johansson is not only really, really gorgeous and probably my biggest girly-girl-crush EVER, i also totally love this song i just ran into...
apparently she released a single or something, and i'm definitely buying it.
it kind of reminds me of azure ray and would be awesome for massage sessions. |

i'm totally kicking ass.
i think i love utah more and more every day.
i miss louisville more and more too, though.
i miss all of my friends so much...even the ones i haven't made enough effort to stay in touch with.
well.
what can i do until i graduate?
just keep kicking ah-yasss.
i quit smoking.
so far i've got perfect attendance.
i'm making bank at wild oats.
not getting quite enough sleep and having to deal with my body literally breaking down from it, but we're working that out...
paul, ben, lauren, and i (yes...there are two of us) all went to arches national park and grand junction colorado to experiment with massive amounts of herbal smoking material and liquid refreshments not legally available for purchase in the state of utah.
and now i'm hanging out at an extremely hip little coffee shop. kind of the re-fuel station for salt lake's finest hipsters and indie rockers.
i only say that because i'm not sure how to feel about it yet...it's close enough to my apartment for it to maybe eventually become my new sunergos...but DAMN, i miss sunergos. this is like sunergos with fifty times the pretension. i think. not sure yet....but their art gallery consists mostly of tattoo flash right now. it previously had big mobiles made of deer antlers...
and i feel very uncomfortable speaking above a whisper.
my mama's coming for mother's day, and meredith will be here in the summer.
brent says he'll try to come out, so...we'll see.
anyways...you all are awesome. |

i FINALLY got a job at wild oats...
starting pay is $9/hr, but the lady that hired me said she could try to start me higher because of my experience at rainbow blossom...sweeeetness.
OHHH, but i need to get a valid id to prove i'm here legally (jamba juice didn't ask for that, no-good-bastards)...so i've got to figure out how to get to the dmv, which is WAYTHEFUCKOUTTHERE and which NOBUSESHAVEEVERSEEN...by tuesday.
so...off to borders to use my gift card. |

the job at brighton gardens didn't work out.
i "passed" the drug test, but my piss was too dilluted, so i gave up.
i think that's total bullshit. i drank 64 oz. of water before the test...THAT'S HOW MUCH WATER PEOPLE SHOULD BE DRINKING EVERY DAY! we're all just so chronically dehydrated that even drug test lab people think healthy piss is out of the ordinary. BULL SHEEEIT.
so...i'm trying to find a job.
the inversion/pollution-cloud-plague has been terrible this week...it's making my whole respiratory system collapse.
besides that...uhhh....
dad's in town.
we did a tour of the mormon temple...SCARY!
uhhh...we had a kick ass spaghetti party last night...
and i went to a kick ass underwear party last week, where i made a shit-ton of awesome new friends. |

my lovely lover-face and i had pancakes this morning, and it was very sunny...so...good day.
got rent paid.
isobel's birthday...sooooo....family dinner thing at benihana's, i theeeeenk?
i got a new job at this place called brighton gardens...an assisted living place for seniors and alzheimers patients. i'll be serving food to them for now, but they're starting a cna program, so i'll be a nursing assistant soon. i think it will go along well with massage therapy.
AND i just found out about this place called bishop's warehouse that just GIVES you clothes, furniture, and food vouchers. this lady at the trax station was all excited about all of the stuff she got there and told me how to get there. we need furniture SO badly...and i just have to go and explain that i can't afford a sofa, and the lady said the people there are so nice that i'll want to give them all a big hug. then she gave me two lollipops, one for me, and one for paul.
so...good day. |

bad things:
got a 25 cent raise at work - my heart has been replaced with a black hole
paul is being really mean-spirited today
there's a huge bruise on my ass from snowboarding
the whole world's economy is FUCKED UP THE ASS
good things:
i can snowboard - got it down on my second try
god. shit's just going to get harder.
i don't know what the hell is up with paul being so rude to me.
we've signed a lease together, and i've commited myself to another year here by taking out those loans for school, so this better fucking be a phase.
at least i've got friends.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. |

so, home for the holidays.
spent lots of time with meredith, not enough with jon, and fucking TWENTY MINUTES WITH BRENT?!?
he ran off to chicago, so...<i>bummer</i>.
i missed my mama a lot...so...that was great too.
god.
i've lost count of how many times i've been tricked into watching all five hours of vh1's top 100 songs of the 90's.
i ALWAYS forget what #1 is, and i get SO fucking curious.
it's 'smells like teen spirit'...and i can't believe i couldn't have guessed that.
i'll try not to forget this time. |

so , it's snowing.
a lot.
dixie, my baby rat, jumped out of paul's pocket while he was skateboarding yesterday. he looked for her for an hour, but...awww. i'd only had her for six days...and now bettie's new friend is gone. eric's letting me take the other baby his rats had...but...i really loved dixie, and i hope she's found a pack of rat friends to roll around in the garbage with.
so...super stressed out.
the blue house lease is up at the end of december, and i'm going to kentucky and oregon for christmas and new year's (respectively)...and...it's super complicated, but FUCK. going home for christmas is really making my living situation a huge pain in the ass...
so everyone had better be super fucking excited about me coming.
going to oregon is making it even MORE of a pain in the ass...
AHHHHHHHHHHH.
fuck the slcpd, for real.
fucking $107 ticket for not paying to ride the light rail.
you government fucks already take a bunch of my money to give to all the old people when I'LL NEVER FUCKING SEE A PENNY OF IT WHEN I'M OLD.
UGH.
and i need to see a doctor because (SURPRISE!) lifting twenty 30 lb boxes every goddamn day has thrown my back out.
OH! and i'll get to pay a DICK-TON for it!
because, SHIT DOG, you have to claim worker's comp in 24 hours!
well, FUCK ME if i thought it was just my bra strap irritating my tattoo!
and FUCK ME AGAIN...because the money those fucks are taking out of my paycheck is going towards SHIT THAT DOESN'T HELP ME AT ALL.
oh, and fuck mormons.
they fucking rent out the ONLY ICE SKATING RINK IN TOWN the ONLY NIGHT I GET OFF THIS WEEK.
(i've started blaming all of my problems on the mormons. i just wish we could crucify someone else and MOVE THE FUCK ON.) |

life has ways of getting extremely silly at times.
like when you're hanging out with the two coolest children in the universe.
paul's niece isobell is nine, i think, and his nephew mason is about to turn eight, i think.
uhh...like...isobel is a cocorosie fan, loves reading, and wants to be a veterinarian.
GUH! that sounds like ME when i was her age, except for the cocorosie...but....AH!
SHE'S SO CUTE! she even asked me if i was her friend, and i was like, "well, totally. i mean, we're hanging out, right?"
mason is just ADORABLE, loves paul, and plays lots of video games.
he's got a little bit of a mohawk...he's like an adorable mini-paul.
their mother mel, paul's sister, is a really sweet, funny woman.
she'll talk about paul a lot, and i've never really heard anyone who knows him well talk about him as a person before.
i really like that, and she really seems to hope things work out between us - probably mostly for paul's sake, but i think she likes me too.
and i got paid rather unconventionally, but handsomely.
AH! so much to do tomorrow!
here's my to-do list:
- try to find some cheap smashing pumpkins tickets
- get a birthday present for mason
- go to mason's birthday party
- go eat where paul's brother works
- see smashing pumpkins
- not be sick anymore
yeah...i really am sort of worried that i could have mono.
i had NO energy whatsoever today, and i'm ready to pass out to some harry potter. |

[Sep. 26th, 2007|08:34 pm] |
the antibiotic the doctor gave paul is working super well, so at least it's not mono.
but since i can't take antibiotics and he needs to finish the prescription, there's not much i can do about my half of the illness.
sooooo i'm just taking it easy and watching la ink.
there's this place, big ed's, where we've been going for breakfast almost every day.
it's seriously the greatest place in the world.
it's, like, four dollars for a bacon-egg-hashbrown-toast breakfast.
"mom", the old asian woman that runs the place and does all of the cooking, has been voted salt lake's best surrogate mother.
ohhhhhhhh, it's incredible eats. |

i seriously just about threw up all over myself a minute ago.
i was walking home from FINALLY turning in my application to wild oats, when i saw this dude in his car staring at me.
i noticed he looks just like this dude from jurassic park:
and then he WIGGLED HIS FINGER at me.
kind of like, "hee hee hee" sort of wiggling.
i was just like, "BLAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
it was really gross. |

paul just got back from the doctor...
and...
WE MIGHT HAVE MONO!
shit.
i mean, i don't feel that bad.
i guess one of the main symptoms is exhaustion, which i'd say we're feeling.
that could also just be a mix of laziness and that whole honeymooney-let's-lay-in-bed-and-cuddle-all-day business.
he's getting a blood test tomorrow, so we'll see. |

well, homesickness has hit.
i miss my friends a lot.
that's about it, though. i mean, it's all the cool people that make louisville.
the people here are great, but i have a hard time just being like, "okay, let's hang out, we're friends now."
as soon as i get a job, i'm getting black and white deer antlers tattooed on my chest.
suhhhweeeet. |

last night was paul's night off, and we had a bunch of stuff planned, but we ended up being sick and lazy and drank theraflu all night.
he works until 3 am, and it's all rainy, and i'm all homesick and not really trying very hard to get a job.
i'm really happy to be here with him, and i LOVE the people in this house, but i miss my friends a whole lot.
buhhh.
whatever.
all the world's a birthday cake.
shower time, maybe. |

so, i'm in utah.
i don't think i could have imagined liking it this much.
there are fucking COLOSSAL mountains right outside my window, in every direction.
my roommates are awesome. we've been hanging out every night, and i like them a lot.
it seems like getting drunk is the thing to do.
last night was an epic beer pong party.
the kitchen is literally filled with empty cans right now.
paul's at work until 1 am, which <i>suuuuuucks</i>.
oh yeah - the graffiti house...HO-LEE SHEEEE-IT. it's probably the coolest thing i've ever seen. it's this house down the street that's covered inside and out with the SICKEST graffiti imaginable.
welllllll, i think i'm taking it easy tonight or napping until paul gets home. |

catholic charities bailed on me, so now i guess i'm leaving my furniture in my apartment...
my landlord said it's okay, and i'm giving the keys to another tenant so she can take what she wants and then reschedule with catholic charities to pick everything else up.
so now i'm just picking stuff up a little more...
getting pretty nervous...
and SICK!
yay.
i'm sick too.
awesome.
