What an eventful evening I had. I woke up with spiders crawling on me; nice yes? That explains all of those little bites on my arms and legs. I knew we didn't have fleas or anything, so I was baffled as to what the bites were. Of course when I asked my Mom to please tell the landlord about it so he could have someone come in and spray for spiders, she ignored me. As usual, she won't do anything about it until it inconveniences her. Anytime I call the landlord he ignores me as well. If I didn't help with the rent that would definitely get his attention. Nice, yes?

I slept maybe 2 hours last night courtesy of the friendly spiders. I am not in the cheeriest of moods this morning, and who walked in the door but Uncle Bob. He's here every fucking day he doesn't work (4 days a week), and he's here some days he does work. I'm sooooo tired of seeing him, and yet I'm the bad guy for not being Merry Sunshine when he appears day after day. She actually had the nerve to tell me to be nice to him; not to tell him to get lost. Mind you, I wasn't rude to him, I just didn't engage in conversation with him. He doesn't call before he shows up, he simply appears. Plus he stays for hours on end, and I honestly can do without him. I was fine for 22 years without him being around, but now that Dad's dead we get to deal with his crappy family members because they feel guilty for not being around before Dad died. Seriously, he needs to go away.

I need to get offline and fax some stuff. I think I shall.

Later.

Jesus, picking a college is such a pain in the ass! I may go to San Francisco State, OSU Mansfield or I may go back to Glenville. All I know is there will be no commuting back home from any damn location, I don't care if it's just a couple hours drive. I'm going to stay at school over the weekends and breaks, and try to soak up some young vibes. I'm getting old dammit!!!!

I drug that fucking book case upstairs, now I have to position it. I think it'll make a nice table for my stereo, and then I can put my socks/undies drawer under my window. Sounds like a plan to me!!

Fluffy the cat is a spazz!!!

I need to upload my Moo photo; I should do that before it gets much later, and before I forget for the 40th time today.

Does everyone like my new journal font and color scheme? I hope so, because it's here to stay!!!

Byeeeeeeeeee!

The car show at Wink's was pretty good this evening. I can't wait until next weekend; I'm going to enter the GTI!!! He'll be the cutest car there.

Brian gave me one of his old bookcases tonight, which will come in very handy for all of my lotions and other useless beauty products. However, when the genius put the bookcase in my car, he neglected to position it as to allow passenger side mirror vision. I drove to Arlington Road, then pulled into the BP and moved the fucking thing. I moved it to the front seat, and the damn bookcase kicked my ass on the way home. I kept ramming my elbow into it, so now my elbow is bleeding and everytime I'd go around a curve the bookcase would shift and whap me on the head. I felt like I was in an episode of Jackass only I was the only one seeing it happen. That bookcase is going down...

I took a picture of the giant Reiter dairy cow in Barberton. I'll upload the photo and post it tomorrow. Moo!!

The LeBaron is evil, and that's OK. I've come to terms with the fact that the car is a giant piece of shit. As long as I can drive it in temperatures under 80 degrees I'll be OK until Tuesday when my GTI comes home. The Malibu was beginning to run like shit, so I made it go away. I didn't have any car troubles until I bought that fucking LeBaron; ever since my car luck has sucked!!!

I believe I'm going to bed.

Nighty!!!!

Saturday, June 28, 2003

The graduation party was OK; it was quite disconcerting that most of Hannah's friends aren't even as old as my cat. Pretty sad, yes? I am getting too old, too fast.

My car is finally finished!! Now I have to pay the taxes, get the title transferred and buy plates then I can pick it up. I should have him back by Tuesday, then I have to get my ass to Steubenville. Woohoo!

My room is nice and clean; I rock.

Nothing else really went on today, and I'm off to bed.

Nighty!!!!

Thursday, June 26, 2003

Finally, here's everything I'm allergic to (I know, no one cares):
Brazil nuts, blueberries, cranberries, chocolate, lemons, lettuce, cow's milk, oats, olives, oranges, peaches, salmon, shrimp, string beans, trout, turkey, mold, cat hair, karaya gum and red top grass. I'm slightly allergic to beech trees, pyrethrum (raid), feather mix (down stuff), jute, house dust, cantaloupe, corn, green peppers, perch and rice. It's great being me!!

OK, CSI is on so I gotta go!!

Guess who just spent the last 25 minutes laying on her bedroom floor? Oh I think it was me. I've been cleaning my room all day, and when I tried to pick up my bed I threw my back out. I know my back is of the crappy variety, so why do I continue to try and pick stuff up? Because I'm an ass, that's why. I had to crawl to my med bag so I could take an Ultram, which I hate doing by the way. At least I can move somewhat now; this is good.

Still no call about my GTI. Argh!!!

It's supposed to storm really bad tonight; woohoo!!!

I'm gonna hobble downstairs and watch some useless TV.

Byeeeeee!

Playlist:
Depeche Mode "The Singles 86-98" Disc 2
Depeche Mode "Ultra" All Tracks
Type O Negative "Life Is Killing Me" Advance CD All Tracks
George Michael "Father Figure"

Went over to Rog's house yesterday to play nurse-maid for him. He broke his ankle about right!

I'm supposed to meet Turtle at his house at 11PM tonight so we can go out. Woohoo.

No GTI yet; I want my fucking car back!!

Tuesday, June 24, 2003

Car show in the Falls was OK last night. Going out with Turtle Thursday night, and with Jenny on Friday night after Hannah's graduation party. I have a job interview tomorrow morning at 10:15; I hope I get the job because I really hate sitting at home all day.

Going to watch some Jackass episodes. I have them all on tape so as to feed my Chris Pontius addiction.

Sunday, June 22, 2003

Didn't work; still miserable.

Saturday, June 21, 2003

Going to car shows; trying to forget how miserable I am.
Saturday June 21, 2003

What makes you think that you have won
When the battle has only just begun?
Let the punishment fit the crime
Bad things come to those in all good time

My mistake was to put you first
Deceitful bubble was so soon to burst
I asked you-believe in just us
Now my faith lie in mine own justice

How many times must I say I'm not sorry?
And how many ways can I show I don't care?

Rotting bodies of enemies
Cannot smell sweet enough to me
What is the price of a friend
Who would carry out revenge?

In this bleak world of absent laws
One in which the just are whores
An honor to die for the truth
Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth

How many times must I say I'm not sorry?
And how many ways can I show
I don't care?

Type O Negative "...A Dish Better Served Coldly"

Wednesday, June 18, 2003

Like a flash of light in an endless night
Life is trapped between two black entities
Cause when you trust someone, illusion has begun
No way to prepare, impending despair

Did one say so cruel: "Tis better to love than lose"
Ignorance is bliss-wish not knew your kiss
So many times been burned, this lesson goes unlearned
Remember desire only fuels the fire-liar

Betwixed birth and death, every breath regret
I pity the living, envy for the dead
Emotionally stunned, in defense, I'm numb
I'd rather not care than to be aware-be scared

I don't need love

Are a thousand tears worth a single smile?
When you give an inch, will they take a mile?
Longing for the past but dreading the future
If not being used, well then you're a user and a loser

World reknowned failure at both death and life
Given nothingness, purgatory blight
To run and hide, a cowardly procedure
Options exhauseted, except for anesthesia-anesthesia

I don't feel anything.

Type O Negative "Anesthesia"

Wednesday June 18, 2003

Guess who forgot to have her oil changed this morning at 10AM? That would be me, but at least I had a good excuse. Wolfie and I met up in Wooster last (Tuesday) night, and I didn't get home until around 2 this afternoon (Wednesday). I have one thing to say; 25 across.

Anyway, I guess that was my little mini vacation from reality; now it's back to the really real world. Yippee.

I purchased the new TON CD last night; have you?

OK, I think I'll take a little drive to clear my head.

Later

Sunday June 15, 2003

Guess who got sunburned today? Oh, I think it would be me. Just my right arm from the elbow down, and my left arm from mid-forearm down. I look like such a farmer. Oh, and my nose and cheeks got it too. What a wonderful way to start my new job. Dork.

The Stan Hywet show rocked out!! Only one Ferrari and one Porsche, but that's OK. The cars were really nice, and there were plenty of them too. All in all a very good day.

I'm so excited about my new job. I felt so useless without a job; I was off for three freaking weeks. It's nice to be gainfully employed again.

I'm working 4 days this week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday) for training as Kristie's last day is Friday, and I'm the only secretary there. Gotta learn a lot of shit in 4 days!!!

Whee!!!

Nighty!!!!

Sunday June 15, 2003

Woohoo, guess who got a new job on Friday?? Me!!!! I start at a Forensic Psychologist's office on Monday. How much better could it be? My hours are Monday, Tuesday and Friday from 9AM to whenever our last patient leaves, usually around 5 or 6PM. There are a couple other psychologists in the office with him, so it's going to be sooooo cool. I can't wait! And I can even wear jeans on Fridays!!!!! Awesome!!

Today (Sunday) is the Stan Hywet car show in Akron. I hope to see lots of Ferraris and Porsches. It's supposed to be really nice today, so that's good too. The Massillon show (Saturday) was great with lots of cars, and a very rare Porsche as well! As soon as I find an article on it, I'll post the link.

Please email me with any suggestions for a personalized plate for my GTI. I want to transfer my old TypONeg plates if I can. The license bureau ladies said I should be able to, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. I have a few ideas for a plate, but any suggestions would be cool too.

The poor GTI won't get to come home the week of the 16th as planned. One of his fuel lines isn't in yet, and the other two didn't come in until Friday. He'll most likely get to come home the last week of June. I miss my little pimp car!

OK, I have to get to bed. I need to be up at 7AM and it's already 20 after 1. Agh!

Nighty!!

Wednesday June 11, 2003

Only 6 more days and everyone can experience the joy called "Life Is Killing Me". Everyone must run out on June 17 and purchase Type O Negative's latest release. It's too kick ass!

OK, I'm now officially finished with my allergy testing. I'm now taking Zyrtek once a day, and using an inhaled steroid for my poor crunchy nose. Hopefully I'll start feeling better soon.

Here's the low down on my GTI. It's a scary one, so be prepared; $620 worth of work consisting of the following:
Three new fuel lines ($145)
New fuel filter
New fuel filter fuel tank
New emergency brake lines
New power steering line
New power steering reservoir
$100 labor

George ordered the parts from Dave Walter VW while I was there, and the GTI will be finished by next Friday. Woohoo!!

OK, I'm off to bed.

Nighty!

Tuesday June 10, 2003

Today is my last allergy test; I wonder what else I'm allergic to. I know cats and feathers really bother me, so down blankes and pillows are certainly a big no-no. House dust also gets me going pretty well, so I envision a life full of dusting and sneezing. Woohoo!

It's warm and sunny today, just like yesterday. Perhaps MotherNature is going to cooperate for the rest of the summer? OK, maybe not. In any event, it's a nice respite from the crappy weather we've had lately.

OK, gotta round up my allergy papers and get ready.

Byeeeeeee!

Monday June 9, 2003

Finally, my laundry is almost finished. Only 3 or 4 loads left and I'll be all caught up. I need to take my comforters to the laundromat as I can wash all 4 of them at once instead of washing them one at a time. I also cleaned out my closet today and found a bunch of VW and Porshce posters. I slapped them on the wall temporarily, but I need to get some kind of scheme going with them. That'll be my project for tomorrow. Well that and straightening my bookcase.

I don't think it's going to rain for the car show tonight; this is good. Hopefully there will be enough cars there to make it worth my while.

No word yet from George on the condition of my GTI. I'm honestly not expecting to get the GTI back until around the first week of July which actually works out well. Lord knows how much it's going to be, but I'm expecting around $500 if I need brakes and a new power steering pump. Actually more like $600 as the fuel tank thingie is $120 on its own. That's OK, he's a cute GTI and it'll be worth the expense in the end.

OK, my computer is being shitty as usual, so I'm gonna go.

Fluffy says grrrr.

Byeeeeeeee!

Sunday June 8, 2003

OK, Hannah is now officially out of high school. She should be leaving for Myrtle Beach in about 10 minutes. I hope everything goes well for her, and she has a fab time. I told her as long as she wears her seat belt, and doesn't sit on any toilet seats, she should be fine.

Tomorrow is the car show on Front Street in the Falls. It better not rain, and the cars better not suck.

My CD burner does not like me. Everytime I try to burn a CD, it'll burn the first track then say there was a problem buffering the rest of the tracks. Fuck you HP USB CD Burner; you may suck my ass.

I keep looking at my Paradise Tea and thinking how good some of that would taste. Then I go downstairs and forget to take it with me. I suck.

OK, I'm off to search the classifieds for a jobbie.

Byeeeeeeeeeeee!

Saturday June 7, 2003

It is so yucky outside. The car show was pretty much dead due to the cold weather and threat of rain. There was no one at the Minerva show, and the East Canton show had about 6 cars. Why does Ohio's weather suck so badly?

I used the new Dove Shampoo this morning. It's pretty cool, and it smells good too. I didn't have time to condition this morning, so that'll have to wait until tomorrow morning. Hannah graduates high school tomorrow at 2PM, then she's off to Myrtle Beach for a week.

Wolfie finally found a car, and he actually bought it! I'm so proud.

OK, I think I want some ice cream even though I'm allergic to milk.

Byeeeeeee!

Friday June 6, 2003

Today was a bleh day. I bought some new Dove shampoo and conditioner; lets see if it's really as good as everyone says.

The GTI is going to be at the hospital for a while. George is really good, but he takes forever. I made a list of stuff, so I plan on getting my GTI back in probably 2-3 weeks. Oh well, at least he'll be all better then.

I really hate life and I'm not going to get into it anymore.

Nighty.

Friday, June 06, 2003

Thursday June 5, 2003

OK, I think I'm setting a pattern of updating my journal after NYPD Blue goes off. Ahhhh, the Smits episodes have returned to Court TV. Woohoo!

I got a job today! I'll be taking inbound orders for a pet supply business. Inbound calls don't bother me at all, especially inbound orders. The people are calling me because they want to talk to me; it's not like I'm calling them out of the blue. I'll work 20-25 hours a week either noon to 9PM or 4PM-9PM. Woohoo me!!

I'm doing laundry at 1AM. Oh well, as long as it gets finished sometime this month.

I do believe the weather is going to be shitty Saturday. I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it. Ack.

OK, I'm off to do something.

Nighty!!!!

Thursday, June 05, 2003

Wednesday June 4, 2003

I had to take my GTI to the doctor again tonight. His fuel pump fuel tank is leaking, and I need to have the brakes checked out as well. I believe the power steering thingie is leaking as well. This car is just sucking up my money on stupid shit. At least it runs well, and the mechanic said I will have no problems with it mechanically. Whew!! I drove the LeBaron today to pick up pizza and it got hot, in 50 degree weather. Oh how I love my LeBaron...

One more week until I finally have my last allergy tests, and I can get some relief from my sneezing, crunchy-nosed existance. I so much hate that I worked in Steubenville for 2 months, then was totally dismissed for refusing to be lied to and walked on. I called JR today as I saw my old job (3 days a week) is still in the paper. I told him I'd like to come back because I liked the job. He told me he "didn't think that was a good idea" and that he had a few people in mind for the position. I then told him I wish I had known what a jackass he is prior to my agreeing to do him a huge favor by working in Steubenville. Then I told him to kiss my ass, and I hung up. Not exactly mature, but I do feel better now. I'm sure if he was asked about that conversation he'd simply lie as he does about everything else. I repeat, jackass.

One of our neighbors are totally getting evicted. I've never seen someone get evicted before, so I'm all excited. I know, the dumbest things amuse me. I did find it to be quite amusing when another of our neighbors had both of their cars repo'd within 2 months of each other. Teehee! Honestly, I don't live in the ghetto, it's a very nice place. My neighbors are just morons who'd rather party and buy grills than pay their bills.

Speaking of paying bills, Keith actually paid back that $50 ON TIME!! I know, I almost crapped myself too.

I need to photograph my new shoes. I have around 3 new pairs and both pairs of flip flops rock out.

Wolfie needs to get off of his ass and buy that Firechicken convertible I found for him. The Trans Am is calling my name, but I do not need 4 cars. Seriously now, my insurance is high enough on two 4 cylinder cars (one turbo) and a 6 cylinder car. Like I need a car with the LT-1 engine, and over 300 horsepower. OK, so I DO need a car like that, but my wallet doesn't. I'm showing restraint and this is a good thing.

Fluffy the cat is a pimp G.

The Stark County Lincoln Highway Cruise-In is Saturday. MotherNature better cooperate with us this year!!! Actually the weather was perfect last year, and I'm hoping it is the same again on Saturday.

I need a cool charm organizer, as in necklace charms. If anyone has any ideas, email me. TypeONegative@sbcglobal.net

OK, tired so I think I'm going to bed.

Nighty!!!!
