Glass menagerie remix

This morning, with only 3 hours of sleep, I drove to work for a 5 hour shift. I am still sick. I still sound like a twelve year old boy. When a customer was leaving I "shouted" "have a nice day!" It was more of a shriek with about 3 cracks in it. The guy just turned around and looked at me like I was crazy. Ahhh, back to work.

Afterwards me and my mom saw hairspray, which I really liked. The only thing that I wasn't too keen on was John Trovolta cross-dressing.

When I got home I stepped on a chuck of glass that was lying on the door mat after my brother broke a light bulb.

I'm having such a great week...

Home from work again!


Apparently I was meant to be miserable this week. Let me first say that I am RARELY sick. Or at least not sick enough to stay home from any type of function. Like I've recently posted...monday I had flu-ish syptoms, tuesday was better, now wednesday......I THOUGHT I was better. No fever, no chills, no fatigue, just a little sore throat and a cough. Well about an hour before I went to work I quick washed my hair and I think I got some shampoo in it. My eye started getting red, but thats nothing out of the ordingary when you get shampoo in it. 30 minutes later it starts getting a discharge in it! And I'm like AHHHH! So I went to work of course and afterwards i went to the ER in fear that I may wake up the next day with no vision. An hour and a half later I learn that I have pink eye and that I've just about gotten over strep. Now, no pharmacy is open so I had to wait till this morning to go and get my meds. I got like 3 hours of sleep. I called into work not to long ago-I guess one person that was supposed to show up this morning didn't and it's a fish day so it's going to be crazy, and since I wont be there it will be REALLY bad. Oh well, unless they want me in there coughing on everything and spreading pink eye. I have to go in tomorrow morning, but I think I'll be ok. The doctor said 24 hours on meds and then I wont be contagious. I also got some meds for my cough and everything so hopefully that will be better too! Time for me to find something else to do!

Going back to Work


The title of this post makes it sound as if I missed a week of work or something. But anyway, I am indeed going to work today. Finally, my flu is i think at least half way over. I no longer have a fever as of this morning. Now I just have a lovely dry cough, sore throat, stuffy nose, and slightly stuffy head. The most amazing thing that happened though was last night I coughed up this nasty thing. I've never seen anything like it before! But to spare your tummy I wont talk about it anymore. I just wanted to let you know I discovered something. I'm not worried about work today. Monday I was because I knew that if I had to go i would be a nut ball laying on the dirty floor. Tonight I think I'll be happy with people knowing me as the stuffed up employee.


Last night I watched Kathy Griffin:My life on the D-list. That's all I did yesterday-watched TV. She went to London which I thought was great cos I want to go. It was funny to see how the humor is different in another country. They said she couldn't say certain words either-like batty boy, bumboo?, uuhh blad clat? I dunno they were weird ones. Tonight once i'm home from work I'm looking forward to watching Top Chef and So You Think You Can Dance. I think those are the only shows I watch. I -like many teenagers-remember what day it is by what's on TV. I'm practically lost friday thru monday because nothing is on. Nothing good at least. That's one reason why I hate summer-all the TV reruns are on-excpet Kath Griffin and So You Think You Can Dance and Top Chef. All the other good ones are on during the school year. That's enough about TV


Now that I can read I started back on my college coursework for august. I'm on chapter 5..sorta...out of 13 :/ I think I need to start making deadlines or something because it's just ridiculous.


i must still have the chills or something because I suddenly feel myself going from cold to fairly hot..so i'm leaving.

Fever Sick


For the first time in what seems like years I actually have a fever! Normally if i get sick my temp goes down, but today I finally accomplished having a 103.1 high fever. I've taken medicine now, so it's only at 101 something. I had to work today but i called in sick because I'm very sure I'm not fit to drive or stand up for more than 10 minutes. Accompaning(i know that's not spelled right) my fever is a sore throat, dry cough, slight headache in the back of zee head and the chills. After researching and asking information from a protected source I believe I have the flu. I believe I contracted it from the cruise ship I was on. Sounds about right yes?I think so too. Now excuse me whilst i go sleep again.

Cruise details





















My dad sent me a few pictures from the cruise so I guess I'll tell all now.
The first photo is me at the southernmost point in the US. I know, how exciting!
The second one next to it is just me on the boat being cool.
The third is all four of us before we got on the boat. Whoopee
The fourth is a lovely sunset...not sure where we were though.

And the fifth is us on the segways looking uber-stylish.
that's it for now

STUART UPDATE!


OMG! I went to work today and I went to see Stuart and Sasquatch, well now there's only stuart! Poor Sasquatch died :( BUT Stuart is pretty much a frog now. He looks like this picture only less of a tail. it's just a nubbit now! My baby is just getting so big.

I have to count all the fish in our system tomrrow so I think everyone should think about me and feel bad for me around the hours of 8-4:30. Please and thank you.

I'm bbbaaaaccccckkk!


I'm back from my week long vacation to Florida/Mexico! I'm not going to talk about it this post though, because I want to explain it all with pictures-so you have to wait!


I will let you in on one thing that happened...my dad proposed to his girlfriend. I'm really not sure what to think of it. Like I've been saying...I don't think we've been programmed to comprehend our parents say they're engaged. I mean normally that's already been done before birth so there isn't any dealing with it. I think I'm excited to know that my dad is happy but to be honest it feels just the same as before. I'm not going to be calling her mom or anything, but I guess the thought of her being my step-mom sort of erks me. But I wont even see her often so what does it matter!?Let's just say I'm indifferent to the situation at the moment.


What else...I REALLY want to see the movie Hairspray. Better yet, have a dance to one of the songs. Also I want to start taking yoga. I found out on the cruise that yoga is all of the whacky positions I put myself into every day. Only you have to lay down and close your eyes a lot which is just silly. I took a pilates class to, but I found it much more fun to see the look on the other peoples faces when I wound get all bendy. You know what I hate though-LUNGES! I want to shoot people whilst doing them. My legs get all shaky and my hip starts cramping up. I basically just want to die.


I have to get ready for work now. I think I'm going to tell them today that I can only work for another 3 weeks or so. So bye!


OH! And screw strawberries as a good fruit...blueberries with splenda on top is so much more nummy

Hey there Delilah

I've decided a name for my duck. PaePae. I know, wtf? Lemme tell you how I came up with it...
So on my way home from work today I saw a license plate that said PXP 1757 well i dunno of those are the right numbers but the PXP reminded me of PixelPinup. So then i thought, what if it was PP?Then I realized that would sound weird if you said it aloud. So I thougt of aglae and how people pronounce it -ie instead of -ae. Then I just combined my two thoughts into PaePae. So it still sounds like you're saying peepee kind of...only in some ridiculous accent.

I'm also happy because some of the pictures from a photoshoot my friend and I did were put online in a zine. Go to www.platformsmagazine.com if you'd like to see! Scroll down to photography and click "Day in the Park" by Megan Buckley. These are from a month ago.

AND FINALLY, today was the last day of my working marathon. Now i can sleep in tomorrow morning! I have to start getting things ready for friday!I can't wait!

<3

Music Video Schmideo

I'm pretty bummed now, because I spent loads of hours last night(ok like 1) making a music video. It turned out pretty decent, but I can't figure out how to upload the thing! GRRR! I'm disappointed in technology.

On that note, I moved Stuart and Sasquatch to a nice big bowl today. They look very happy now.

I also finally picked out MY duck from our newly hatched babies. It's the smallest one of course and I painted its toenails a sheer pink :P I havn't named it yet, but I'm thinking I want to go with a literary reference like Gatsby or Mr. Proctor. I don't know if it's a boy or girl though, so I should probably pick a gender neutral name, but those are never fun...

Tomorrow I have to work from 7-3:30. I'm not excited. It will be my fourth day in a row working eight hours. I really don't know how adults do it! My joints are killliinnggg me! And I'm BORED out of my mind! I just can't wait to go on vacation. I feel like I've been waiting forever to go. I feel bad that my mom isn't coming. I hate going on vacations without her. But she goes on vacations with Dave and dosn't even take us with so I guess I shouldn't worry too much about her feelings.

I have nothing left to say
