Dorkful Bliss

Guess who's going to see Pulp Fiction tomorrow? Me! Not a big deal except I'm seeing it in a theater!!!!! Kent State University's theater is showing Pulp Fiction tonight and tomorrow night at midnight. It means I'll be watching Pulp Fiction until almost 3AM, but dammit that rocks!!!!

Worked tonight until almost 9PM. I guess it's a good thing no one wanted to go out tonight since I was at work so late. Oh well, I'll go out next Friday. I get paid next Friday anyway, so that works.

That's pretty much it. I worked tonight and that's it.

I'm off to watch Hollywood Babylon on VH1.

That is all.

Damn K-Mart Photo Maker

The crappy assed photo maker at K-Mart won't accept the small media cards. Piece of shit. So no photos for me.

Worked again today.

I'm going to watch CSI and Without A Trace.

That is all.

Word

Well I worked today and that was about it. I performed a variety of tasks, and there was enough to keep me busy and not bored. It does get a bit tedious, but a quick trip to the potty or to get a drink, and I've ready for more. LOL

My GTI is too much. I came home from work today and turned him off. No big deal except the fan keeps running after you turn the car off. How I love VW's!

I'm getting another fucking cold sore. What the hell is going on here? I guess I shouldn't complain too much though, since some people get cold sores 2 and 3 times a month. But still, stop with the ickies.

Nothing interesting happened today, so I'm off to mess around for a half hour or so, then go to bed.

That is all.

Queen Of Dorks

I totally dorked out earlier this evening. I had a thought last night; I have a media card for my camera and I have a port on my laptop that's the same size. Upon inspection this evening, I realized I can directly plug my media card into my laptop. No more wasting batteries to upload photos. No more trying to find the USB cable in order to upload photos. No more burning CD's when I want to print photos at Wal-Mart. I say woohoo! Seriously, you should have seen me when I figured this out. OK, maybe you shouldn't have. LOL

I'm off to bed soon; gotta work tomorrow noon to 6PM.

That is all.

Grrrrr At Blogger

Why can't I upload any new songs to my blogger directory? I'd really like to change my music but I can't until I can upload more music to the directory. I'll keep trying until I figure it out, but I'm not sure how long it'll be until I can add new tunes. Although it's not a bad thing to be stuck with Depeche Mode. LOL

I figured out how to get the music to play with a Mozilla browser. I rock! Seriously, I'm too proud of myself.

OK, I'm off to scrounge up some food.

That is all.

New Email

Google's new Gmail service is cool. Thankfully it works even when sbcglobal and AOL are down. I really hate the Internet sometimes.

It is snowing. In April. I hate Ohio.

Again Dave Gahan. Don't.Dance.Ever.

I called about my check from Auto Connections and no one answered the phone. It would be nice if I could be paid, especially since I was supposed to get paid last Thursday. Chad was supposed to call me yesterday so we could go over what I did, and so he could mail my check, but he had to go out and take photos so he didn't call me. This is beginning to piss me off. No one has to be there when I get my pay. I have a key, which I need to return anyway, plus I need to pick up my desk stuff for my new job. Grrrrrrrr, I want my money!!! How am I supposed to send refunds, mail packages, buy gas and refill prescriptions if I'm broke? I repeat, grrrrrrrr. I am assured of a check on the 7th, though, so this is good.

That is all.

A Volunteering I Will Go

I just talked to Denny from the car museum. I'm going with him on Monday to solicit donations for the June car show. We're going around to people who donated last year and asking for donations again this year. It'll be fun, and get me out of the house. Plus I'll have the inside scoop on all of the show's door prizes, woohoo! The Stark Cross-County Cruise-In is June 5th, all day. I'm working the sport compact thing this year, so I'll be downtown all day long, and during the evening too. I will enter the GTI even though he's not going to be repainted; I don't care. My GTI is cute and that's all that matters.

That is all.

Lacking A Title

Heehee, I chased a goose today. Mom and I went to Gabe's to look for shorts. Well there were two geese in the parking lot, so I proceeded to chase one of them with my Mom's car. The goose just ambled a little faster; didn't even fly away! I'm amazed by the weirdest things.

I'm trying to figure out when I bought my GTI. I know it was in May sometime; I'm thinking around early May, but I'm not sure. Hopefully I wrote it down somewhere, I'll have to check. The title isn't any good as I didn't have it transferred until November. Hmmm...

I must see the movie Mean Girls. It comes out on Friday, and I have to work until 7 or 8PM. I will see that movie this weekend!

That is all.

Let The Pimping Begin

Everyone, sponsor Julie for the arthritis walk. A link to donate is on the side.

That is all.

Mozilla Is My New Best Friend

Mozilla is a cool browser! I can view my new favicon, but my background music doesn't work, which kinda sucks. Oh well, I'm more interested in my icon at this point, and if I need to check my background music I can always open up Navigator, Explorer or my SBC browser. Wow, I have way too many internet browsers!

The favicon doesn't show up using Mozilla Firefox. Just thought you'd like to know.

My Mom is making me watch some stupid Hallmark Hall of Fame movie; hopefully the torture ends soon.

Must wash my car tomorrow.

I finally straightened out my videos and DVD's.

Not much to say tonight.

That is all.

People Are Stupid

OK, on my sbcglobal profile I kindly request people to not bother me unless I know them. At least once a day some stupid guy messages me and bothers me. When I tell him to fuck off, he gets all belligerent and shit; like I messaged him in the first place! It never amazes me as to how dumb people really are.

I was just looking through the classifieds for a job; I forgot I finally have a good job! Dumbass.

I should get my last Auto Connections pay on Tuesday or Wednesday; Chad is calling me tomorrow to go over what I've done, and go over my hours. That will be good as I'm broke right now, and have a few things I need to mail/take care of. It would have been nice to have been paid over a week ago, like I was supposed to, but I'm glad to finally get that wrapped up. I still have to collect my things from the office, and return the office keys, but I can do that anytime really.

Need to wash a load of laundry. Damn, it seems as though I'm always doing laundry!

I really need to carry the 3 totes of shoes to the basement as well, but they're too heavy for me to carry. Dr. Dork was supposed to carry them downstairs on Friday, but of course he "forgot". Ass.

Travis just linked me to Mozilla, so I'm gonna try it out. Maybe then my favicon will show up!

That is all.

Techno-Dork

Whee, I have an URL image! I can't get the image to show up using the SBC/DSL browser, nor will it show up with an AOL browser, but it does show up with a Netscape browser! Check it out, it's a little VW icon. I'm so happy!

Went to 4 places yesterday looking for Meguiars clay detailer thingie. Finally found it at K-Mart but the clay bar was missing. Sucks to be Dr. Dork.

Berryclear Sprite Remix is even better than the Tropical kind. Go buy some now!!

I'm off for now.

That is all.

Working Woman

Another guy called today to offer me a job. I like my current data entry job, so unless this other job pays at least $10 an hour, I'm not taking it. I rock.

I worked today, that's it. Went to Wal-Mart too, but nothing exciting happened.

The GTI is a pimp ride.

That is all.

There Is A Mountain Of Opinion

OK, I'm going to like this job. There's enough variety so I don't lose my mind, and I DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH CUSTOMERS! I don't really have to deal with anyone, and the people I have talked to all seem really nice. The freakiest thing of the day is a girl I work with sold me a CD on eBay almost 2 years ago. What's even more strange is she remembered me! Anyway, I guess I'm only working 3 days a week, which is cool but also sucks because I was looking forward to that extra $45 a week/$180 a month. Oh well, at least I have a job that'll keep me busy.
I cropped photos today, and entered some ads. Hopefully I didn't fuck up too much stuff for Heather to have to fix, or else she'll kick my butt! Heather graduated a year after me, which means she's younger than me, but she's really nice and helped me a lot.
My desk at work is being overrun with little brown ants. Not a good thing!
Amended work schedule:
Wednesday-Noon to 6
Thursday-Noon to 7
Friday-Noon to 8 (Or whenever we're finished)
I'm off Saturday through Tuesday, woohoo!

Enough work stuff...

It's been rainy and gross all day which is cool cause I'd be pissed to have to work with it being nice out. Hopefully it'll be nice this weekend.

My sister called and left a message on our machine. I guess my nephew is in ICU at Pittsburgh Children's Hospital. He has pneumonia and his kidney stopped working. This is the nephew who just got a new kidney a little over a year ago (Christmas of 2002). I really wish shit would stop happening to him so he could just be a normal kid. Thankfully all of my other nieces and nephews are healthy, but why did Matt have to get all of that shit dumped on him? If anyone says it's to make him a stronger person, they're getting smacked. He's 11; he doesn't need to be a stronger person, he needs to be a kid.

Must pee, then hydrate myself.

That is all.

Back To The Daily Grind

I start my job today. The girl called at 10 til 11 and wanted me to start at noon. Sorry, can't start until 1PM. So I work today 1-8 and tomorrow noon to 7, or whenever we're finished.

Bleh.

That is all.

Sharp As A Butter Knife

If you drop your razor while in the shower, don't grab it by the sharp end. Moron.

Per usual I didn't organize the videos or DVD's. I'm such a slacker.

I don't know if I'm working tomorrow or not; I guess it depends on when my drug test results are in. Maybe I won't start until Friday; that would rock as I really need to get my last paycheck. It's all ready a week late.

Gotta get my clothes out of the dryer then go to bed.

That is all.

Wednesday, April 21, 2004

Day's Never Finished, Master's Got Me Workin'

I start my new job tomorrow, Thursday. My drug test results didn't come in today and I can't start until they have those results. I'll get paid on May 7th for a week and two days. I can't wait!

Today I've done nothing so far. Well I did plop a load of clothes in the washer, but that's about it. I have to run $26 to Don, then get gas. I will organize my videos and DVD's today, yes I will!

Supposed to rain, but that's OK.

That is all.

Friendly, My Ass

Yeah, here's an observation. The Queensryche Fan Club is supposed to be a group of like-minded folks, right? Well my experience on Sunday is that they're asses. I can't really explain it other than the Columbus group is like a high school clique and no one else is allowed to join. It was obviously my first soundcheck thing, so why not help me out? I should have known they were asses when I posted a question in the Forums and it was completely ignored. People are fucking stupid.

Today I had my drug test for my new job and I picked up my car. I also returned the headlight switch to Kempthorn VW with a minmal amount of lip from the service guys. I was amazed, I really was.

I have low beam headlights, and a tranny that doesn't leak. My car no longer smells like cat piss when I shift a lot! It's amazing!

Hot damn, I think I just found Proof on Kazaa! If you're not a fan of The Gathering, you should be. I also found Roads to Madness by Queensryche. Tonight is the MP3 search night!

I was in bed, but since I went to sleep at 6PM, I guess I'm probably finished sleeping for the night. I think I start work today, but only if my drug test results are back. If I do work, I'll get off at 6PM, so that's not too bad. Thursdays are the long days; noon to 8PM. It'll be nice to have a job where I actually have work to do everyday!

Goody's is still the pimp store.

I just realized, the Columbus QR show was my first road trip for the year! I love road trips, there's something about rest stops and highways that get me chippy. I'd like to make it to Fallingwater this year, as well as the Carlisle car show. I'm sure I'll figure out other places to travel to as well, but those are the two that popped into my head at the moment. Shit, Carlisle begins Wednesday! I must go this weekend!

I've been wearing shorts, short sleeves and flip flops. And sleeping with my window open. Ah, Spring.

That is all.

Thank Goodness For The Chevy Owner's Manual

According to the Chevy owner's manual, and as read to me by Jamie, the heavier the rain the harder it is to see. Also, snow and ice in your tires may cause your car to slide.

Yes, he was reading the Chevy owner's manual while on the way to Columbus. Seriously, all of you go outside and check out your owner's manuals. There's some super silly shit in there!

Again, the heavier the rain the harder it is to see. Brilliant!

That is all.

No Comment

The Chrysler 300C. Have you seen it yet? This car is pretty OK, even though it is a Chrysler. Very cool looking, plus you can get the Hemi engine which schleps the car from zero to sixty in 5 point something seconds. I wouldn't buy an American car, but it is very nice, at least what I've seen of it. Yes, that's my big discussion. LOL Cut me some slack, I'm tired and going to bed soon.

Total bill for my GTI is $23 and I have low beam headlights!!

That is all.

Baby, You Can Drive My Car

Just talked to Don. The VW dealer gave me the wrong part, and I didn't need it anyway. Apparently there was a loose wire under the dash and that's why my headlights aren't working. Also, the tranny isn't leaking, it was just a little bit too full. I didn't need a new seal for the other side, saving me $83! Don rocks.

That is all.

This Is The Road To Madness

Things To Do:
Arrange videos and DVD's.
Wash a load of clothes.
Take out the trash.
Call the trash people and arrange to have them pick up the old microwave.
Hang up clothes.

I can't get to my drug test until tonight as my car isn't finished and my Mom had to work today. Thankfully the place is open until 10PM, so I'll go as soon as my Mom gets home from work.

My left arm was sunburned yesterday, and I'm happy about it. I have a watch mark on my left arm so I know I did get some sun. Jamie and I arrived in Columbus around 3PM, but it took us 15 minutes to find a parking place. We stood around at the venue until about 5 after 5, then went inside for soundcheck. Soundcheck was about 25 minutes, then we were escorted back outside. We walked around for a bit, then went to Starbucks so I could pee, get something to drink and sit on my ass for a while. We sat in Starbucks from 10 after 6 to 15 after 7, then we headed back to the venue. After standing in line for about 20 minutes we finally got inside. We sat in the balcony and the show rocked out. The opener, Symphony X, was awesome! I'm going to say they're a cross between Savatage, Dream Theater and Faith No More, with Rob Halford for a lead singer. I was seriously jamming out.
Queensryche came onstage around 9:15 or 9:20 and played until 11:20. Pamela Moore is phenomenal, which made the Mindcrime Suite even better.
Drove home and got here around 2:30AM. Took the rental back and was in bed by 4AM.

I need more sleep.

Later today: Lisa Discusses The New Chrysler 300C!

That is all.

Queensryche Gobbledeegook

Michael Wilton is my husband, he just hasn't realized it yet.

That is all.

Sunshine On My Shoulders

Busy weekend. Lets see, Friday was a good day. I took the GTI to Don's to have the other tranny seal replaced and to have his headlight switch installed. Then I dropped by UPS and shipped a few items. After that I picked up the rental car (2002 Malibu) and drove home. Upon arriving home I was offered the data entry job. Of course I said yes, so I have to have a drug test on Monday and I'll more than likely start on Wednesday (or as soon as they get my drug test results, which will be negative). Payday is every two weeks, which I hate, but at least I'll be bringing home more than $110 a pay. I'm still doing the Auto Connections thing, but it's on my own time and is commission only.

Today I ran around with Dr. Dork. We hit two Wal-Marts and Fisher's Foods. Exciting, I know.

Friday I went to return some CD's I purchased, and then realized I all ready owned. I had asked the guy if I could return them when I purchased the items on Wednesday and he said it was fine. OK, cool. I go into Time Traveler and the owner guy starts being a dick about it. I had my receipt, and the CD's were used to begin with. I'd purchased the CD's two days before, so it wasn't like I'd had them forever and was suddenly trying to return them. I told the owner what the other guy had said, and he starts getting all pissed and shit. First he was going to let me return them, then he decided I had to find other stuff instead of getting a refund. As I'm walking off I hear the owner say he's going to fire the other guy. What a fucking ass. Now mind you, this place has no visible return policy, and no policy on their receipts either. The guy I purchased the CD's from has worked at Time Traveler for 4 or 5 years, so it's not like he was new and didn't know what he was doing, either. The owner is just a dicksack, and I told him so after he decided I couldn't use my "return credit" toward any new CD's or any DVD's. Fucking ass. I hope that guy didn't get fired as I never would have said anything about it had I known that would happen. Some people are such dicks. Try posting a return/exchange policy and there won't be a problem. The amusing thing was he first asked how I paid, like that made any difference. I paid in cash, so he decided I couldn't have a refund. Again, what a fucking dick. So if you're from the Akron area, boycott Time Traveler for 6 months or so, and tell the owner it's because he's a dick.

The crappy neighbors are both in jail. The guy is in jail for 58 days and the woman is in jail for 28 days. He didn't appear for his probation hearing or sign up for parenting classes (endangering children and resisting arrest were his charges) and she didn't pay restitution or show up for community service (driving on a suspended license and failure to control) so they both were arrested on Tuesday. They're also being evicted and their parents are currently next door moving their shit out. Awesome!

I must point out once again that I do not live in the ghetto despite those crappy neighbors.

It was in the mid-70's on Friday, and in the 80's today. My left arm is sunburned, woohoo!

I leave for the Queensryche concert in a little over 10 hours. Woohoo!

On that note, I should go to bed or something.

That is all.

Switch, My Ass.

This is alledgedly the key to low beam headlights:


Just thought everyone would like to know.

That is all.

Whee, I Have A Title Bar!

I went on two interviews today. One at a sign place in Belden Village (customer service/secretarial) and another at national magazine thing (data entry). I hope I get one of the jobs as this 12 hours a week isn't worth shit. The sign place is M-F 8:30AM-2:30PM and the data entry job is Monday and Wednesday noon-6, Thursday noon-8 and Friday noon-7. Both pay $8/hr, and I think I'd like the sign job better as it's more variety; I wouldn't stare a computer screen the whole time. I probably won't be offered either job, though, so that probably won't even be an issue.

I don't get paid until Monday which sucks donkey balls since I'm going to Columbus on Sunday. Bah!

Tomorrow I have to take my car to Don's, drop some packages off at UPS, pick up the rental, return a pair of shorts to Goody's, return some CD's to CD Warehouse, go to Wal-Mart and take my Mom to the mall. I'm supposed to work a visit to Minerva Dave in there as well; busy, busy. All of this has to be finished by 2PM when I'm going to Cuyahoga Falls. I bet you my paycheck I don't get out of bed until noon and shoot all of my plans to shit. LOL

Today, other than those two interviews, I went into work for about 10 minutes and napped from 6-9:15PM. I've also watched the Halloween DVD no less than 3 times. Yes, I'm a dork.

Blogger is still down so I have no idea when this will actually appear on my blog.

I should probably go do something, or something. LOL

That is all.

Thursday, April 15, 2004

Blogger's down or something. All of my Blogger-stored images aren't showing up, and my blog's not showing up either. Dammit.

That is all.
My computer needs a swift kick in the parallel port. It's only 5 months old, but it's acting like a piece of shit. What the hell?

Guess who found Halloween on DVD for $10 today? I rock.

Tired, more tomorrow.

That is all.

Happy 28th Birthday Dr. Dork



Whee, our crappy neighbors are getting evicted! I am too happy about that.

I've just gathered up all of my CD's and I'm now going to organize them in my CD holder thingies. This should be fun.

That is all.
As promised, the stolen turtle shirt:


David brought strings over for my guitar, woohoo! Now I need a reed for my saxophone and I'll be set.

Have to work Tuesday, icky poop.

That is all.

Monday, April 12, 2004

Shit, I almost forgot...Yesterday when Dr. Dork and I went to play pool I was wearing my bunny ears. We were going back to the pool tables (it's a bowling alley too) when we walked past this fat drunk guy. Well him and his buddy started going "Shoot the bunny" and making guns with their hands. OK, not a problem and moderately amusing. Then the fat drunk guy's friend proceeded to say "I have an Easter dinner for you honey" upon which I almost barfed. Nice, yes? Dr. Dork didn't do anything as he's not a fat drunk redneck with an IQ of less than 30; only stupid people start fights over dumb shit like that. On the way out, the same fat drunk buy was singing "Here Comes Peter Cottontail" as I walked by. I must point out that I looked all of maybe 18 years old last night (I usually look 20 years old, tops). I repeat, I almost barfed. Some people are fucking morons.
Along the same bunny ears note, I realized I was walking through a foreign car junkyard while wearing bunny ears. Seriously, someone should have taken a picture of that!!!!

That is all.
Well all of my clothes are washed, as are all of my towels and washcloths. I've taken to keeping at least a week's supply of both in my room as my Mom steals them and I'm left with nothing to shower with. Speaking of the biddy, she rearranged the living room last night. It looks much better this way, and I hope she leaves it like this for a while. I finally cleaned out my closet and boxed up all of my winter jammies and sweatpants. Now I just need to carry them, the the totes full of shoes, down to the basement. Wish I had a clothes chute, that way I could toss the shoes down the chute instead of carrying the damn things down 4 flights of stairs. Ick.

It helps to finalize a burned CD before trying to play it in your stereo. Dumbass.

Have to return yet another pair of shorts to Goody's as they're too short. I did find a nice pair of shorts at the Dillard's outlet yesterday and they were only $3.50! Woohoo! I also found a really cute shirt that has a turtle on the front. I'll post a photo of the shirt tomorrow; it really is too cute.

That is all.

Three words for you: Strawberry Kool Whip

This weekend was busy but fun. Friday I went to the Falls right after eating at Long John Silver's. I was going to Hilarities with Jamie, but wound up getting horrifically sick from the LJS. I was stuck in the Falls until 2-3AM when I was finally able to drive home. Saturday found Dr. Dork and I going to Sam's Club for dinner (don't laugh, their pizza is hella good), the junkyard and to play pool. We also went to the ghetto mall, Toys R Us and two K-Bee's toy stores. I was supposed to go to his house today for Easter dinner, but when he called and woke me up at noon I felt fevered and basically like shit. I think I was worn out from running around since Thursday and not getting enough sleep.

Check out my Yahoo photo album for the newly added What the Fuck folder.

I need to wash clothes.

That is all.

Saturday, April 10, 2004

What the fuck is this?

Side view without zoom:

Wal-Mart in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. It was way too much for me to handle. Yes, I took those photos with my regular HP digi cam as I don't have a camera phone. Yes, I am an ass.

Long John Silver's bad.

That is all.

Friday, April 09, 2004

I have your Friday Five:

1. What do you do for a living?
Work 12 hours a week for a car sales thing, and I also do eBay stuff.

2. What do you like most about your job?
It'll be fun once I start selling cars myself. Oh, and I can wear jeans to work. That always helps.

3. What do you like least about your job?
I'm usually bored out of my skull due to lack of stuff to do.

4. When you have a bad day at work it's usually because...
I've stared at a computer for 6 hours straight without really doing anything.

5. What other career(s) are you interested in?
Forensic Psychology, duh! I'd also like to be a mechanic, so here's my thinking...I'll get my Forensic Psych Doctorate degree, then become a mechanic! Sounds like a good plan to me.

All right, that Friday Five sucked balls. Oh well, at least there was one this Friday!

I just got up about a half hour ago, so nothing's going on yet.

That is all.
I must have these glasses:

Like they don't rock out! bebe Tatiana frames. The ones I want are a dark plum color, though. The red's just a bit much for me.

Well now, Goody's is certainly a cool store. I arrived around 9:15AM and all of the Goodie bags were all ready passed out. I was about to knock someone down and take a bag, but I figured that wasn't very nice. I found two shirts (a pink Double Bubble shirt and a blue shirt with some cabana thing on it) and two pairs of shorts. I wound up returning the shorts because they're low rise and too damn short. I found another pair of shorts on my second trip to Goodys' but they're too short too. I guess I'm not supposed to wear shorts this summer as I can't find one pair I like.

Went to Dillard's for a return (another pair of shorts) and then ran to have my new prescription sunglasses made. They rock out!

Stopped by Kempthorn Volkswagen to see if they have any R32 or 20th Anniversary GTI's. Of course they didn't have either. Fuckers. I then roamed back to the service department and tried to get the GTI 16V badge for the back of my car. The parts guy wound up calling someone in Germany only to find out the part isn't made anymore. I ordered the turn signal/headlight switch thing so I will finally have low beam headlights. Once I have that replaced I need to finally adjust my headlights so they point out instead of down. I've not adjusted them yet because I have to ride around with my high beams on, and if my headlights were properly adjusted the lights would be too bright. Since the headlights point at the ground, I'm OK. I've not once had anyone flash me to turn down my high beams, so I guess they're not bright at all! The VW guy also gave me a VW Driver Gear catalog chock full of VW stuff. Woohoo! Upon leaving the dealer, what did I find parked next to my GTI? A green Corrado! I drooled over it for a bit, then left the dealership.

I really love my car even though he's still leaking tranny oil.

I have to start going back into the office on Tuesday. This is going to suck. I get so bored just sitting there not doing anything, but I don't want to look like I'm not doing anything. After about an hour of staring at the computer I start to get crabby, and I have to sit there for 6 hours! At least I have a job, though, even if it is only 12 hours a week.

That is all.

Thursday, April 08, 2004

Grand opening of Goody's is in 6 hours. I'm too excited.

Didn't do much today. Ran around looking for shorts and couldn't find any I liked. I did manage to pick up Jeepers Creepers for $9.44 at Wal-Mart and that's it. I need to find a new brush since I forgot mine in Jenny's car. I suck.

I took new photos of my car on Tuesday; they're posted in my Yahoo briefcase and on my webpage. I took the photos by the McKinley Monument, but it's not like you can see anything in the photos anyway. I washed the GTI again today, and vacuumed him out. I've decided to give him a bath every week even if he's not dirty. I need to wash the rims tomorrow after I get home from work; I have to go in and update my boss on my progress, and turn in my time sheet. I'm wearing gloves when I clean the rims this time as that shit tore up my hands the last time I used it.

I'm going to Hilarities with Jamie and a bunch of his friends on Friday then I'm running around with Dr. Dork on Saturday. I'll do some bodywork on the GTI this weekend if it's warm enough, and not raining. There's a ton of freaking rust that's popped out on his rear hatch and it really looks like shit. I hate sandpaper, though, and am not looking forward to the sanding part of the process.

All right, I'm off to re-code my webpage so my new photos show up.

That is all.

The GTI is home again, but he seems to still be damned leaking. I dunno what's going on, but at least no damage was done to the transmission. Don also fixed my popping-out-of-5th-gear problem. Don rocks.

I went down to the bar last night and had one screwdriver. I rock.

I'm going today to get prescription sunglasses, that is if the glasses place is open today.

That is all.

Guess who just got soundcheck passes for the Columbus Queensryche show? Heehee, I rock.

Did a little shopping today in the Biddy Wagon. My GTI is still at the shop; Don didn't even call me today which is very odd. I hope he's OK and stuff. If I haven't heard from him by noon or 1PM tomorrow I'm going to drive out and see if everything is OK.

I'm watching some weird remake of Carrie. I should have known it was too good to be true; Carrie on DVD for $5? Dammit.

Bleh.

That is all.

The Clutch concert was fucking awesome! They played for hours and hours; the first half was an instrumental set, then the regular set. I was deeeeeeelighted, and would love to see them again. It was easily one of the best concerts I've ever seen. Queensryche is in two weeks; April 18th!!!

I'm now washing my coat and my clothes since they stink of cigarettes. Ick.

I'm watching a 4 hour tape of MXC. Woohoo!

That is all.

I had a Quiznos Sub yesterday at the mall. It was hella tasty and I would very much like another one.

Clutch is tonight at the Agora. It'll be nice to get out of the house again.

The time change jacked me all up, but at least it'll be daylight much later into the evening. Woohoo.

I should probably get a shower or something.

Things need to change or I'm going to be crabby the rest of my life. Grrrrrrr.

That is all.

I have such a juvenile sense of humor:


Bleh. I went to the mall today, and stumbled upon a hella good Hot Topic sale. Picked up a cute Dickies purse for $10, and various stickers for my car at $1 each. I can't wait to get my car back so I can decorate him even more.

I'm watching the Porsche Victory By Design special on Speedvision, then I'm either going to watch my Nip/Tuck DVD or some MXC that was taped on Thursday. Hmmm, decisions, decisions.

That is all.
Here's your drunken post for the evening; please forgive any spelling errors...

Went to Eldorado Lanes for bowling. I knocked down 54 pins out of 200. I fucking rock.

Went to the bar. Drank 5 Smirnoff Ice, 1 jello shot, and one shot of Jagermeister. The shot of Jager killed me. I puked not 1 mile from the bar. At least I didn't puke at the bar, that's so embarrassing.

I saw Party of course, since it's his bar, and Crypt was there too! I guess he goes to Akron bars now, the Main Street Saloon and another bar that I can't remember the name of. I'll have to check those out when I'm in the area. He also said to check out Dirty Deeds, which is an AC/DC tribute band. I will do that as well!

Jamie met Jenny and I at the bar. We played pool and he kicked both of our asses. Oh well, at least he took it easy on us.

I think I'm going to bed now.

That is all.

I guess Jenny isn't going to be here until 9 or 9:30. That's good since it's 5 after 8 and I still have to take a shower. I'm so lazy.

We're going bowling then going to the bar. I've not been bowling since I was 5 or 6 years old; this should be interesting.

No car today and that sucks ass.

I'm off to get ready or something.

That is all.
Woo! Big Lots had the original Halloween on VHS for $3.99! It's the digitally remastered THX version which I guess is even better. I'd have liked to find it on DVD, but VHS for $3.99 is awesome! Of course I'm watching it right now.

I made the Clinique girl cry today. The biddy and I went to Elder Beerman so she could get a blusher and some hand lotion stuff. Well we stood there for 10-15 minutes while the one Clinique girl helped another customer. No problem; there was only one girl and a lot of customers. Not her fault. Well this bitch walks up as though she's going to get helped immediately. We (the biddy and I) knew what we wanted, and the Clinique girl knew we were there first. Well, I inquired about a lipstick and was told they were sold out. I said that was OK, we still knew what we wanted and were ready to purchase the items. The Clinique girl walks off and helps that bitchy woman who had been standing there about 2 minutes. I then got pissed, put the stuff away and was walking off when she finished up with the other woman. The Clinique girl was following me through the store begging me to come back and purchase the items. I told her she should have thought of that prior to walking off when we were ready to make our purchases. Finally she started crying, my Mom felt bad and she proceeded with the purchases. I'm not an ass to salesclerks, but that girl deserved it. When I worked at both JC Penney's and Montgomery Wards I provided excellent customer service and I don't think I'm out of line when expecting the same level of service in return. Yeah, they're mostly younger kids who really don't want to be there to begin with. Too bad, that's your job now do a good fucking job of it or you'll have to put up with pissed off customers. So yeah, I made the Clinique girl cry at the Alliance, Ohio Elder Beerman.

Donald Pleasance is/was a fucking pimp.

I hope I get my car back tomorrow.

Gotta call Jenny in the morning and find out what time she's arriving tomorrow night. Hopefully Jamie will still be able to meet us out there tomorrow night. That'll rock. Again, Jenny and I will be at Iron Tales Saloon in Canton; come buy us drinks!

Off to watch Halloween.

That is all.

The GTI is on his way to the doctor. He may not be fixed until Monday morning and that sincerely sucks ass. AARP motoring plan is useless. They only deal with one towing company, Canton Towing, and for the last two days their flatbed truck has been unavailable. I called AAA instead, and if that dumb bitch sends a regular tow-truck out here, after I requested a flatbed, I'm going up to the AAA thing on Fulton Road and beating her ass.

I'm still sick, it's still raining and my head yuck is fucking with my sleep pattern. Fucked up sleep pattern=grumpy Lisa.

Again, unnamed person you may fuck off and die.

Flatbed truck just came and snatched up the GTI. He's getting an oil change too, for free, since I referred one of my brother Jeff's friends to Don. Don is the pimp mechanic for VW and Honda, by the way.

Guess I should go change my Mom's air filter.

That is all.
