    "I'll make your heart smile."
    Hello DJ! It's been a while. As usual.

    I just finished my play last night. The one I've been ACTING in, which is awesome. Not to brag or anything, but everyone has been telling me how amazingly funny I am in the one play, especially Jay. That makes me so happy to think I don't completely suck at acting. I am really funny in that one... or was since it's over now. We had a sell out crowd this whole past week. I got to see some people in the audience (like Cher and Janiece and Joel!) and work with some people back stage (like Jess and Trudy and Dani) that I haven't seen in ages! It was a really awesome time. I'm kinda sad it's over, but I won't miss all the work and time it took.

    I've had two of my monologues selected this year for the Practice Monologamy contest, which will be performed in two weeks. I'm also directing two, which is cool. I hope they don't suck too much. That's the last weekend of April on Thurs, Fri and Sat, so come see them!

    After that I'm getting back into some craft stuff since I've been neglecting that for theatre. Gonna get my etsy and blog back up to date and make some new things. Hopefully there will be another IMI in May or June b/c I miss them. I also have a three day block planned out to completely clean the apartment. I'm talking Clean House style, like when I have my keep pile I'm gonna go back through it and get rid of half of it again. I have too much SHIT that I don't use or even remember I have and the apartment is a fucking wreck. We don't know where anything is half the time and that sucks. Plus we're staying in this apartment for at least another year (that's right, it's my first extended lease!), so we might as well make it livable. Then we're planning another yard sale. Althea is bringing some of her stuff to sell at that too so we can have a nice big one.

    That will be nice to do in May b/c Maria will be done with school, graduated and there will be no theatre. And the apt. will be all ready for the Fifth Annual Halloween in June party, which is gonna rock. I'm doing a show starting in June that opens in July for the Summer Company. It's The Importance of Being Earnest, which is pretty much my dream to work on... I'm not stage managing it, just ASMing, but that rocks for me. Not as much work, and I can do the show with minimal stress. April, the stage manager, tells me that ASMs in this show are also going to play maids, so looks like I'll kinda be acting again anyway. :)

    Oh, yes. Lenore had kittens this morning. LOL. I kinda knew she was pregnant again, but it's so hard to tell for sure. I really wanted to get Byron fixed after last time, but I've been very low on money and time. That was right around the holidays and forget that shit. Given the timing on this one, she got pregnant in early February, which would have given us November, December and January to get Byron fixed. Holidays, vacations, two shows, extra work hours, etc. Yeah. But this time I'm so serious. I don't want Byron spraying any more and this will be the LAST bunch of kittens. Although I'm actually pleased we're gonna have more kittens around. They are so sweet and I love them all! But I already have one possible taker for a kitten. There's four again, so if you are interested, let me know!

    So for now I'm working on some poems and drafting a full length play (I hopes, I hopes...) and a couple little one acts. And thinking about getting a degree in stage management. And thinking how I should be a manager at Starbucks or find somewhere that pays better. A lot of people are jumping ship right now b/c it kinda sucks for the employees at the moment. A lot of changes going on so that customers are getting better products and we're working our asses off with no incentive or reward. Yeah.

    Ok, that's all for now; just thought I'd update SOMETHING in here since I neglect it so much. And I don't wanna miss a month! TTYL, Cruel World!

    One more time!
    So, because the hostel we stayed at is super awesome, they let us use the lockers in their basement today after we checked out so we could go shopping and stuff without all our luggage! We just came back to get it and were gonna go sit at the station or a cafe for a while and wait, when we remembered that they had a lounge and game room we'd never even looked at. It has a ping pong table, pool table, tvs, movie room, internet lab and several arcade games! So we're sitting here relaxing a bit and using the web before we head up to use the subway the last time.

    Last night we went out and luckily it had stopped raining for a while. We met Johnny at 2 x 4 where he had met these people, one of whom was leaving for China the next day (today). They were super nice. And I had a Moz shirt on, which everyone at the gay bar loved. Some girl took a picture of it to put in her blog. So Johnny and I had absinthe! Unfortunately, as with most things in my life, it was sorta ghetto. This is because they were out of sugarcubes, so they had to use a box of domino's sugar and shake it up with it! LOL! It was still good, very good. It didn't make me all crazy (I just had a little glass), but it made me super mellow and I got drunk very quickly afterwards. I would totally do it again! We were there until around 3AM (the bars close at 4AM here, and if there's enough people they just close the doors and keep serving liquor until everyone leaves), then we caught the subway home and said by to Johnny. So much fun!

    Today we woke up, checked out, had breakfast and headed to Greenwich Village again to go to the White Horse Tavern. Well, it decided to fucking pour rain again, so everything we had that was dry finally soon became soaked again. Dammit. And we walked in the wrong direction for about seven blocks too. :( But in the end it was worth it. This bar was so cute! It was all wooden and was truly pub-tacular. It reminded me of a classier Big Jim's. There was... what I assume to be a retired soccer team there. They all had on soccer-seeming uniforms but were really old. They were in the bar... singing songs together! Very drunkly, too. Esp. for 3PM. It was so cute! I was happy just to visit this historic bar. This is the bar in which Dylan Thomas drank 18 shots of whiskey before he stumbled home and died. This is the bar across the street from where Jack Kerouac lived, and the bar which kicked him out time and time again. This is the bar where Hunter S. Thompson hung out in New York. I was thrilled! I would go there all the time if I lived here, and I would write a book sitting in the window of the bar.

    So then we came back here and are chilling in the basement lounge. There's a bunch of British boys with adorable accents playing pool in the next room. Some French girls were just smoking cigarettes in front of me. And two Chinese people are using the computers in the internet lab. Earlier today, we checked into our lockers with a group of German kids. I <3 NY! I will be truly sad to leave it, not just because I'm a-feared to get on the Greyhound bus again after last week's trip!

    Will update some time upon arrival home! I had a blast this week!

    "And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?"
    Jesus Christ! The rain is ridiculous! We left the hostel a little after noon and got back around 7PM and we are totally soaked. And I'd say we only spent about an hour of that in the rain. My shoes are totally soaked; they're sitting by the heat pipe thingy now so they dry a little before we go out tonight.

    So when we left today we went to Starbucks for breakfast. They have all the sandwiches and salads and things here. They were pretty good. BTW, we've found three Starbucks now that receive a rating of 5 out of 5. And I think we've been to nine. So that's one third that are as good as they're supposed to be. Not very good. But those three have been very nice.

    We then walked through the park, stopping to visit a the Central Park castle, Castle Belvedere. It was really pretty! Very small, but cute anyway. Then we got to the MET. We spent HOURS there and still didn't see everything. I took gillions of pictures. Esp. in the Egyptian rooms. They had so many sarcophagi and mummies! It was pretty cool. We decided not to go to the Guggenheim or Whitney since the MET took so long. We'll just visit them another time.

    Then we were gonna walk through the park, but since it was POURING, we walked on the street looking for somewhere to eat. Jesus. In case you don't know, the East Side, where we were, is home to Fifth Avenue, Madison Avenue and Park Avenue. Not too many cheap little cafes. But lots of horrid expensive stores and more horrid people. I totally saw a fight for a taxi and a fight on a subway today, both between two women! So we finally found a cafe, I think it was called Viant's Coffee, where we had sandwiches and warm drinks. We were then right by FAO Schwartz and the Plaza Hotel (I'm pretty sure I actually saw it, but it was getting dark and we were far away), which were very close, but it was raining so hard that we decided just to get on the subway and go home since it was right next to us. Blah!

    So then we stopped in a little corner grocery store by our hostel and I bought a 1 pint, 8 oz. bottle of Smirnoff Triple Black! Ha! I'm gonna drink it now in my room while I'm getting dry. Tonight we're going out again with Johnny, probably to the Alphabet Lounge and Coyote Ugly but definitely to 2 x 4 again. Then tomorrow we have to check out by 11AM! And hopefully there will be a place in the Times Square station to get a locker so we don't have to lug our bags around all day. I think we're gonna go to Ellis Island and the White Horse Tavern then just hang out until our bus leaves. Yay!

    Ok, that's all for now. Not sure if I'll get to update tomorrow, but I will be home soon! See you in a bit, Cruel World!

    P.S.- I miss my kitties!

    "Will I see you tonight on a downtown train?"
    So today we had a nice calm day. Didn't do too much, and we're back at the hostel early. I don't even mind b/c as far as I see it, I'm on vacation and I'm relaxing. I wouldn't be able to do that at home! We're watching Sister Act 2 on TV right now, lol!

    So today we went down to Greenwich Village and did some more shopping. We went to this place called Forbidden Planet where they have lots of manga and comics and a place called the Strand which is a bookstore that has 18 miles of books. Wow! They had this little artist/vendor booth fair thing going on in Union Square so we looked at that too. I bought an Obama button (yes!), and I went for it and bought a hash pipe. It's not as pretty as the ones in that store the other day, but it was cheaper and I bought it from an artist who makes them himself in New Jersey. He was really cool, and I was happy to support his craft.

    Then we went to East Village to look for this one restaurant, which doesn't exist anymore. But I got some nice pictures. It seems like the only time we've ever had subway problems is when we were going to or coming from East Village. Rar! Eventually we got back to Greenwich Village where we ate at a cute little vegan place called Sacred Chow. Then we went to Murray's Cheese shop! Yay! We got some cheese, bread, chocolate, and sparkling juice to take back to the hostel.

    So now we're here just chilling. I'm glad b/c we need to rest today. Tomorrow we're visiting three museums and going out drinking. And then Saturday we're probably going to have to check out early and lug our bags around for hours before our bus leaves at 11PM, and who knows what that will be like. It seems like it's almost over, even though we have two days left. Oh well; I've had a great time and at least I haven't been at work!

    "The bomb that will bring us together."
    Ok, so just so everyone knows, the bomb that went off in Times Square this morning was a minor one and we weren't anywhere near it. It was about 3:45AM and we were last in Times Square around 2AM I'd say. It was just big enough to blow the front windows out of the army recruitment office that it was targeted for. No big!

    So yesterday we went to Europan for breakfast again. It was yummy! Then we took the subway to 79th and walked to the New York Museum of Natural History. It was nice, but it was very similar to the one in Pittsburgh. Also, it was set up very weird, and we had a hard time finding our way around. Lots of dead ends. And we couldn't even see the dinosaurs without paying a separate price. Weird.

    So after that we headed down to Chinatown to meet Johnny. We had snacks and drinks at this place called XO. I had some coconut ice slush and it was super yummy! Then we walked around Chinatown for a bit and looked at the little shops. We were going to try to go to Little Italy next, which is near Chinatown. But it seems like maybe the Chinese took over the Italians, risk style, because no matter where we went, the place on the map that said Little Italy still had Chinese lettering all over the place. There were no Italian places anywhere! So we went into a nearby Whole Foods to look at the map and plan where to go next. It was amazing in there. I've never been in the one in Pittsburgh, but John said this was incredible even for New York. I took tons of pictures b/c I was so impressed! They had this thing that would grind peanuts into peanut butter right in front of you. OMG, it was amazing.

    So after that we went back to the West Side and went to this Chinese place called The Cottage that John knows. OMG. While you're there, they give you unlimited free box wine. It was awesome! And the food was good too, although there was too much for us to eat. But as we were walking back with our takeout boxes some guy asked if he could have them and we said yes. I was happy someone would eat them b/c I knew I wouldn't. We stopped at the hostel then went back downtown to East Village for some bar crawling.

    We went to a nice dive place called 2 x 4 that I had looked up. Well drinks were only $3 there and it was a nice cozy atmosphere. We're going back on Friday b/c they carry ABSINTHE there (and it's hard to find that, even in NYC), but they were out last night. Then we went to a tobacco bar called Karma. Full bar plus hookahs. Very nice. Pricey though. Beer was $6 for draft. We just stayed there for a drink and a smoke. It's rare to smoke in a bar here. They don't allow that except in a few special circumstances. After that we were a little buzzed but tired, so we headed home.

    Not sure what's gonna happen today. But I'm gonna go take a shower now, and we'll see from there!

    "So let's find a bar so dark we forget who we are."
    Okay, so I'm a little drunk, so forgive this post if it's a little wrong. I have two days of stuff to write, too! It's been a busy couple of days, and I've been too tired to write!

    Yesterday we got up and went out with the intention of going to some museums. It was raining a little off and on, but never anything horrible. So we went to a place where the map said would have a post office to send out some post cards. We ended up in Rockefeller Center and near to Radio City Music Hall. It was cool to see both of those things, but it took an hour for us to find the right post office b/c people kept directing us in weird places that were wrong! We finally found it and mailed them then proceeded to the museums. Turns out that MoMA is closed on Tuesdays and the former Museum of Television and Radio (which is now called something else), was more expensive than we thought, so we didn't actually do any museums yesterday! Instead we ended up at this place called Isadore's that was amazing. I had an egg salad sandwich on rosemary focaccia bread with lentil soup and Maria had a grilled veggie panini. Yay!

    Then we went down to Greenwich Village to do some seeing and shopping. It was fun to look at. There was a knitting store and an incense store (with billions of kinds of incense and oils). Then some guys stopped us on the street to ask where Duquesne is (it was on my hoodie). They, of course, tried to sell us some CDs then. Ha. They were really funny. One wanted to sell us CDs so badly and the other just wanted to hook up. My favorite was that he told us that we could stay with him and to go get the money we paid for our hostel back and we could buy pot with it. LOL. They were really nice, though, and didn't hassle us too much that it was annoying. We also visited a tobacco store where I almost bought a nice hash pipe. The guy gave me a great deal, but I decided to wait until the end of my vacation.

    We visited another couple Starbucks. They all sucked. Especially the one closest to our hostel. My god! They were horrible! Mostly rude and generally making our drinks totally wrong. Yuck!

    So then we went back to Times Square to put our names in the lottery for Rent tickets. And, surprise surprise, Maria won! Yay! I think that's awesome b/c I've only ever tried to see Rent on Broadway twice and both times I won the lottery and sat front row! I'm glad I got to see it again before it closes in June. And I really liked it again this time. It wasn't as good as the last time, and Maria didn't really like it all that much. But I liked it. I really love the show, though. The singing was great anyhow. And the guy who played Roger looked like Ewan McGregor in Velvet Goldmine. He's from London, and he was awesome. I waited for him after the show to sign my Playbill. I was surprised that not a lot of people waited for autographs. I got his and Benny's. They were both very nice, and it turns out that Johnny knows the Roger guy through a friend of his! :)

    So after the show we went back to the West Side and stopped at this pub called the Abbey Pub. It was really funny b/c the woman who owns the bar has a brother who lives in Munhall. Ha. Then we went to this really awesome place called Cheezy Pizza. Ha. It was only supposed to be open until 10PM, but it was 1AM and open! So we went and OMG it was so good! Bars are open until 4AM at least here! Some stay open all night! And a lot of places like McDonald's and Dunkin' Donuts are open 24 hours. And guess what they have here- KenDonutHuts. It's like KenTacoHut, but with Dunkin' Donuts instead of Taco Bell! Woot!

    And that was the end of Tuesday. I think I'm gonna save writing about today for tomorrow morning b/c I'm super tired now. But at least I got this one in! Yay! Ok, until tomorrow then!

    "I would go out tonight..."
    Whew, I'm tired! We took a nap this afternoon, but I think we need a full night's sleep in an actual bed before anything is really right again. My contacts are screaming at me; lucky I just had an eye appointment and got some new ones. So after we woke up, we went to this place a little further down in the West Side called Hummus Place. We had a huge plate of fava beans and hummus with a side of falafels and pita bread for only $7.50. And Maria had some sangria and I had homemade iced tea that were both soooo yummy. I had on a Smiths t-shirt, and this one waitress noticed and put on a Smiths CD while we were eating. It was really cool. She walked by and looked at me and we both laughed b/c it was obvious they put that CD on just for me. :)

    Then we walked down to Central Park and visited the Dakota and Strawberry Fields where we caught the end of a talk some guy was giving about the memorial. Turns out this guy takes care of it and knows all these famous people and places/arranges the flowers and other items on the mosaic every day. He was saying how he got pumpkins for Halloween and trees for Christmas too. It was pretty neat.

    Then we went down to Times Square and just hung out for a while. We walked all over the place and visited some shops. My feet started hurting pretty bad during this, of course. They've been bothering me lately. I went and bought an ACE bandage to wear tomorrow so it won't bother me so much. We went into two other Starbucks. One was super small and had no seating areas at all, so we didn't get anything there. The other was very nice and friendly, but they made my drink wrong. The search for the perfect New York Starbucks continues. There's one really close to the hostel, so maybe that will be good.

    So we decided to not go out with John tonight since we are so tired and my feet hurt. We're gonna hang out with him on Wednesday when he doesn't have class. So went caught the subway back to the West Side and went to this place called Europan (as in it's European and serves pan, aka bread), although it seems only Mexican and Asian people were working there. They were super nice. We got some New York pizza and some pastries and juice and took it back here to eat. It felt so good to take my shoes off and put on pajamas for the first time since Sunday morning.

    So now I'm watching Family Guy and relaxing and will probably go to bed soon. Not sure what we're doing tomorrow, but I'm sure I will write in here again soon!

    Good night, Cruel World!

    "These little town blues..."
    Yay! We made it to New York! After a bit of a crazy bus ride, we got here. It wasn't the worst thing or anything, but it was probably the worst Greyhound experience I've had. Maria and I were the third in a HUGE line of people waiting for the bus. We got there early so we could sit together. So they were filling up another bus first and had room left over. They grabbed the first ten people or so in the line and stuck them on the almost full other bus; two of whom were us of course. So we didn't sit next to each other. I had some guy next to me who was taking up his seat and most of mine and he kept rolling around and snoring and waking up and calling people on his phone. And the woman across the aisle from me kept taking her shoes off and putting them on again. At one point she dropped something and was looking for it in the dark and kept grabbing my foot. So I didn't sleep for most of the ride. But after we got to Philly, most people got off the bus and we got to sit together. I got some sleep then. The funniest thing was that our bus driver looked exactly like Jeffrey Jones!!! It was super creepy. And he talked really funny too. Very giggle-worthy.

    The biggest problem after that was that we each had a carry-on and a checked bag, and carrying two bags around New York kinda sucks. So I ate in the station, we went outside onto 42nd Street, and immediately outside we saw... a Starbucks! Ha. So we went over there. In my elaborate investigations for free and/or cheap and/or interesting things to do on the trip, I printed a list of all the Starbucks in NYC. I believe there's 234 of them. The first one we went to, 42nd and 8th, SUCKED. The register partner had no idea what she was doing and was extremely NOT polite. Maria had to ask twice for her drink and twice for her pastry. Plus the store was set up really weird. You had to go through the line once then weave your way through the line again but skip the register to get to the bar and pick up your drink. So we decided we'd just take our stuff out to the West Side and try to check into the hostel early.

    We bought city maps and subway maps, and I used my city smarts to figure out which train to take. There is a subway station about three blocks from our hostel; not too shabby! We got here about five hours before we could check in (oops!), but the very nice lady told us that if we would take a room with bunk beds instead of a double bed we could check in then. So we took that. It's still a private room, which is freaking amazing for a hostel, considering we're only paying about $30 a night to stay in the city. It's really clean and has a TV and a view of... another building. It's super small, but that's a given. There's tons of apartment buildings on this street and we're a block away from the river! There's a 24 hour drug store close by and a Starbucks (big surprise!), Dunkin' Donuts, a little diner and a fresh fruits and flowers stand all between here and the subway. Of course, the subway runs all night here, and we have unlimited subway passes for the week that also work on the bus systems. And our hostel has free wifi!

    So now we're chilling in the room for a bit so we can rest from our hellish bus ride. It's only 11AM after all! I thought I'd enter my first trip log here. I plan on updating a lot, just because I can! So I'm gonna go rest my eyes. We're meeting my friend Johnny later tonight to drink. Leave me a message if you have any suggestions for fun things to do. I've been here bunches, but this is Maria's first time to NYC. And if you want me to bring you something, leave me a message too!

    Until later, Cruel World!

    So things are a bit better since the last post, although I will admit I'm still confused as hell. Not much else there.

    I'm at my store preparing for the "nationwide store meeting" that's happening tonight. If you don't know what I'm talking about, look up Starbucks in the news and you'll see.

    Going to New York in less than a week. We're bringing this computer, and our hostel has free wifi. So expect LOTS of entries next week. I'm gonna update a lot, hopefully.

    Not much else, just wanted to update b/c I have the time!

    "But if I hurt you, I'd make wine from your tears."
    What a crazy time in life. Today I worked another shitty shift at work, crocheted like hell to finish this scarf that a co-worker had commissioned from me, went home for a couple hours, then went to cover part of Maria's shift at her store. God. And I have to be at work at 5AM tomorrow. I really hope this one woman comes in. She's such a bitch, and this is so petty, but I love being so mean to her. She really deserves it though. And everyone hates her but no one has the balls to call her on her nasty attitude. So she actually only comes in one or two days a week now instead of her usual six. But I like when she comes in when I open b/c I laugh about her all day then.

    I need a fucking vacation. But you know what? Not gonna happen til March. And even then it will be crazy. I'm now working on monologues for the monologue contest and crafts for the next I Made It show. After that, we're going to New York for spring break. I'm planning on a lot of writing on the train to and from there and maybe in between. Soon after that I'm doing my chapbook and hopefully getting the rest of my ebay shit together while making every craft I can think of for Tekkoshocon, which is for sure now. So every anime, comic, HP, video game or other kiddy/cartoony/cult kinda thing I can think of will be produced in mass quantities. B/c now if stuff doesn't sell, I can always list it on etsy where some super fan of whatever it is will want to buy it. But really, these kids at the anime cons will buy ANYTHING. And my stuff is super cute and WAY more reasonably priced that most other vendors. If all goes right, Tekko could really give me a financial boost.

    Ok, that's all I have time for now. Gotta go home and to bed so I can do it all over tomorrow. Fuck.

    P.S.- I'm going to 80s night again this Friday. You all should come. It will be my third week in a row, and why not? I get in for free and have some extra cash right now. Last week I had four drinks and a shot then bought other people three drinks and a shot and it only came to about $37. Not fucking bad.

    "I've come to wish you an unhappy birthday..."
    Well, Cruel World, I made it to 25. Do I feel different? What do you think?

    I had a really awesome time on Friday night at 80s night! I got super drunk, snuck a bottle of liquor in and finished it off, had DJ Doug play a huge playlist for me, had some creepy guy in a hot Smiths shirt decide to dance with me for forever, Alex saved my life from the creepy guy then gave me a kiss then started making out with some random guy on the dance floor (lolol), and I called tons of people and left them crazy ass messages singing Elton John. Yes, I drunk dialed like whoa. It was really really awesome, and a lot of my friends were there to witness the drunk including Maria, Althea, Angela, Ami & her boyfriend, Amy, Nicole and Alex.

    Saturday I felt like shit and didn't really move very far until 2PM. But that's okay. Eventually people came over for my super cool Mario party. We played Mario and had lots of liquor and a LOLcake and SO MANY PEOPLE came over! People I haven't seen in forever! I was really happy with it b/c everyone seemed to have a good time and even the people who don't really like each other got along well. Mel and Dani haven't talked to each other for over a year I believe and they were chatting it up like old times and hanging out. I was so happy b/c I felt in some way I was responsible for reuniting them. Ha. And I got some rad gifts. Maria got me a fucking color printer/copier/scanner, which is so awesome b/c I can use it for craft stuff as well as poems and things. And she can print her papers from home now too!

    Sunday I slept all fucking day. Well, until 1PM. Then I laid on the futon all day and read fanfic and watched the Bruins vs. Rangers game. It was a really awesome day on the whole b/c I got so much rest.

    Today isn't going so great, and that's normal b/c it's my actual birthday. I've learned not to plan real things on my birthday b/c they always go all crazy. The last time I had my party on my birthday was my Party From Hell in the North Side. I worked this morning, which sucked in a way but I wanted to b/c it was a holiday and therefore super slow at work. I pretty much stood around for four hours, made a couple lattes and got sent home early. They had a little cake for me there, which was cute. Then we had to go to Maria's dad's house to return the loaner car and get the old one back. She's getting a totally different car soon and it is AWESOME. It's like a Durango if you know what those look like but it's a Ford. It has FOUR DOORS and a huge trunk and a top that opens and AC and a CD player! I think I might be more excited about it than she is actually. We went to lunch with her sister then to this neat yarn store where I bought a ton of specialty buttons for craft purposes. Maria felt bad that I kinda spent my day with her sister, but I didn't mind and I had a good time.

    Then we came home and realized that we had left the parking passes for our apt. building and Carlow on the mirror of the rental car. DOH! So that kinda sucked. I was super tired by this point. We went inside and watched The Simpsons Movie. Then my grandma called and left a message. The one I'm not talking to. It kinda made me sad. Then we got ready to go to Carlow for her play practice, and a bunch of bad things happened at once, of course. Stupid little things, but they made me a little sad nonetheless. And Maria is, unfortunately, no good at cheering me up b/c she gets sad that I'm upset and that makes me even more sad. Ugh. First we had to walk up to the street to get the car and it's freezing and I had my really heavy bag to bring the computer. Then I had to wait forever for cars to cross the street. Then my Slytherin necklace that Dani and Bill got me fell off my neck and I thought I'd lost it. I found it, but then I couldn't get it back on to save my life. Then when we got to Carlow, we were bringing cake to the theatre ppl. Maria had too much in her hands and dropped two pieces of it. And a pin broke off my messenger bag. I was like, fuck this.

    So I came upstairs and everyone was all HAPPY BIRTHDAY, but I was like go away. Then the silliest thing cheered me up. Steve came out of his office (I don't know if you've seen him lately, but he's growing a beard for the show and he just looks ridiculous and it makes me laugh every time I see him. He hates the beard, but Jay is making him grow it. LOL.), and said "I have a present for you, but I didn't wrap it!" And he gave me this huge button upside down, and I flipped it over and it's a picture of Tim Curry as Frank N. Furter from Rocky Horror in the birthday party scene where he has the party hat on. LOL, it was awesome. I put it on promptly.

    And then my mom called and her and my sisters sang me happy birthday. It was pretty nice. Esp. since I was wondering why they hadn't called me all day. We talked about our plans to go to Chuck E. Cheese this Sunday. Oh yes. I can't wait.

    So now I'm sitting here typing this and uploading pictures and other mindless nonsense at Carlow. Nothing exciting like a birthday. Later we're going to Mangia Monday and maybe I'll have some champagne or something.

    And that's my 25th birthday in a nutshell. Just wanted to post a quick thing about it while it's all fresh. Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate! I really had a good time on the whole! :)

    Until next time...

    From the fanfic I'm reading:

    "Bunny eating a human head," Lucius said out of nowhere. He was stretched out, hands behind his head, watching the evening sky. Snape peered at him.

    "What?"

    "Bunny eating a human head." He squinted. "Looks more like a duck now."

    Oh. Clouds. "Are all rich gits as easily amused as you, or are you just special?"

    "You know I'm special, baby." Lucius wriggled his tongue at Snape, who snorted wearily and took a long drag.

    "Yup, I'll bet Saint Mungo's has a special ward just for you."




    Hahahaha. Ok, you have to be into slash or at least Harry Potter to enjoy that. Yeah.

    Ok. That's all.

    REAL quick!
    Happy Birthday, Sevie! Oh yeah I guess I should do that end of the year survey thing too. Ok here goes, then off to work on 2006!


    2007 in DJ entries:

    January
    The answer is yes. God I got so sick. I have no idea how. But if you haven't heard from me in the past five days or so, that's why. It was mostly New Year's Eve when me and Maria both woke up with sore throats. It just went downhill from there. Maria got a high fever at her mom's house that night, and I woke up on New Year's Day to just go back to sleep again. I spent all of yesterday in bed. Today at work I really thought I was going to pass out many times. So dizzy. We got the laptop working for the moment so I figured I'd write now while I can, but it won't be long. Gonna go take another nap. I hate feeling sick. I've had four different kinds of meds in five days and none are really helping that much. Fuck.

    February
    I'm at Amazon. On my lunch break at work. The internet was being all screwy so I figured I'd come in here on my break and type. I typed an entry last night, but it wouldn't let me post, so the next entry in here will prolly be from the day before. If that makes sense.

    March
    I only have TWO more CD albums to fish through before the highest of the highlights of my entire music collection are on my computer! And when I say highest, I mean it doesn't suck. Ha. So pretty much everything. I am super stoked. One of the things on my big to-do list is finish my CD project, so even though I kinda feel like I'm just sitting around doing nothing I should be, I'm getting something on my list done. So there.

    April
    I feel like shit. I didn't do one productive thing all damn day. Last night's party was lots of fun, but I didn't get home until 5AM and then I slept all day. Now I'm too tired to sleep. I don't work tomorrow, luckily. Oakland kept calling me to cover a shift. I should have done it, but I hate working in other stores. And they kept calling me. It was annoying. They'd say call if I could cover it then keep calling back.

    May
    Quick update mostly to say add Isn't That Something? to your DJ friends so you can see all my updates and your friends can see them too! I like having a craft blog; it's cute. Even if I really don't update much. My next craft show is Sunday, check the blog for details.

    June
    So I didn't mean for this to be a drunk entry, but that's just what happened. I started writing this entry a billion times before and other things happened or I felt it need to be really crazy special since it was the Moz concert, and look. It's a month after the show and I still haven't written. As you can tell I'm not really drunk, I've just had a bunch of drinks. So here goes, bear with me!

    July
    No entries!

    August
    I said I wasn't gonna let myself miss a month this year and I fucking did it! ARGH! Of course, July was a HELLA busy month. But that's no excuse. Pretty much, I suck.

    September
    Why does no one write in their DJs anymore? WTF?

    October
    Am bored. I'm playing with my vampires and zombies and werewolves on facebook. I'm at Carlow, in Steve's office like usual. Being bored. Not much to do but so much to do. I have sooooooo many things I need to do and WANT to do, but I don't want to do them. Make any sense? I just want to STOP for a minute. I'm done with theatre, poetry, crafts for a while.

    November
    Those are the opening words of the album that really got me into Green Day. And I feel like they say so much about what it's like to inhabit my specific skin. Maria was gone to Florida all last week, and I had her ipod. It's pretty much filled with stuff I like, but she likes it too. The last changing of all the songs was titled "Return to Our Alternative Roots" (as compared to "New Wave Wave" and "MOZ"). I realised that I didn't have any Green Day on it, and so while she was gone I put about two albums worth of songs from them on it. Old school stuff, none of this American Idiot nonsense. They're pretty much all I listened to all week. They made me really sad, but really feel something. Like goddammit what the fuck am I doing with my life? I feel like I'd rather be just a bum not doing anything but what I like to do and struggling with life than living okay but doing this goddamn 6AM being perky to customers bullshit. Unfortunately, I must continue to make coffee for the man. At least until a sell a book/play/whole fucking ton of scarves.

    December
    I stay away far too long. In what Maria calls a "Christmas Miracle," someone probably on our floor in the building got wireless and didn't password protect it. So now we have the internet here, finally. And it's free. This is just what happened last year around this time. Christmas miracle.



    So pretty much I didn't do anything this year but be sick and make crafts. Sounds about right.

    Ok done for now!

    This is the short film that Michelle's brother Daniel made a while ago for his film class. It's pretty funny. Maria, Scott, Michelle, Jera and Ang are in it, so watch it and enjoy!!!

    Going now to play Mario maybe... Or clean. Or write. Or craft!

    I'm going to graduate from college one week from tomorrow. It really hasn't set in yet. I don't feel any different. I wish I could stay behind in some ways, esp. since I have no idea what I'm doing with my life, but I'm also happy to let it all go. Carlow was heaven and hell all in one for me. It's really such a fucked up school, but I would never change my decision to come here. I met too many amazing people here and had too many incredible experiences. Who knows what the future will bring, but I'm up for it.

    May 8, 2005
    Now I know what I DIDN'T miss about DJ. Of course, it's not DJ's fault. It's fucking Carlow's slow ass diseased computer labs. I just typed a million page long entry, and of course the computer decided to restart in the middle of it, without ever shutting down. I'm just typing away when the screen goes black and it says windows is starting up. Bastards.

    Jess and I bought a hibachi grill and a baby inflatable swimming pool for our graduation party next weekend. I know that pool's gonna get broken. But it was on sale for $7.50. I want to see how many of us can fit in it.

    Ah, the afternoon rush at the DD. Some woman just came in and spent $44. I don’t understand it. The other day, a guy came in and asked me if he could owe me 25 cents of his purchase. Honestly. Then he pulled out a twenty and a bunch of other bills. Apparently, he wanted to owe me the change because he didn’t want to break his bills and have to carry change around with him.

    So now it’s 4:26 and I still hate everyone who comes in here. Actually, by the register it’s 3:32. Nothing works properly around here. So I have roughly an hour and a half to sit here.

    People need to stop coming in here. Blah. I hate customers. God, here comes another one. Every time I hear the sound of the door opening, I cringe.

    I should just go to sleep and let everyone take everything. Ron said that’s what he’d do.

Yet, even though they're dying, three of their moods are "delighted" and the fourth is "happy." I'm delighted to die today, how about you?

    Oh god, here comes Sister Ellie. I hope she doesn't see me...

    Yesterday I spent most of the night talking to Janiece about how people just don't understand Snape.


    August 14, 2005
    But all these ppl kept coming up to me like "I haven't seen you since you were this big!" Some lady that I really didn't know at all actually said to me, "You grew up!" In response, I said, "Yes. I did." What was the expected response for that anyway? The worst was all the questions about what am I doing with my life now that college is over. One lady, I still don't know who she was, gave me a ten minute lecture about my life. I wanted to poke my eyeballs out. Later she asked me why I went to college at all if I didn't have any plans for after. I told her I only went b/c my family said they'd disown me if I didn't go, which is half true. She was not amused.

    P.S.- Snape's pretty!

    Last nite found Cara and I at ENP again. And eventually Michelle. We were there for quite some time. Cara had about 10 cups of tea. I think she's regretting that now. Mike and Heather were both there, but they were rowing, so I didn't talk to either of them very long.

    September 15, 2005
    So... got fired today. Yeah.

    Saturday nite Cara and Maria are coming over for my "Sirius + Remus Drunken Slumber Party" so we can get good and drunk and make fun of Harry Potter. Jess is supposed to be coming up too, but that's no guarantee.

    September 19, 2005
    Alan Rickman is sexy even when threatening death by spoon. Although we all know that's not really what spoons are for...

    So I spent my day in Steve's office, again. Listening to wolves, reading poetry, attempting to steal Steve's shoes, coaxing Steve into admitting his gayness, hanging with Cara (surprise!), reading slash, etc. I officially have no life. Oh well.

    OMG MARIA IS GOD. SHE IS THE WORLD'S BEST SLASHER EVER.

    TenderBlueAngel: then snape and remus should have sex
    TenderBlueAngel: and then remus can go with hermione for the rest of ever
    CriticalQueen: i say, bite it most of the way off
    CriticalQueen: sex all around!
    CriticalQueen: and all it requires is killing tonks
    TenderBlueAngel: yes most of the way, so it swivels
    TenderBlueAngel: and she can't see properly
    CriticalQueen: lol, we'll call her swivellus
    TenderBlueAngel: shape shift that, BITCH!

    October 31, 2005
    The Fright Nights were cool though. Mike was working there, dressed as a vampire. He was hilarious. He came up to me and said "We don't have smiley cookies here!" And Michelle wasn't allowed to ride the King Kahuna b/c her boobs are too big and the bar wouldn't close right! LOL. I almost died.

    Oh, and I think I got a job at Starbucks. It's downtown at the William Penn Omni Hotel location. I have to call the store manager back on Weds to talk about a meeting and all, but it sounds like a done deal. Yay me!

    November 16, 2005
    The cast party was kinda wild. I'm way glad I went. So was Christian, and it was really only b/c he threatened me with the powers of water that I went. Poor Mike fell through the glass of a window in Chuck's house though and had to get nine stitches. Ouch. He was hysterical most of the nite after that. On a good note, Christina and I won at beer pong twice, and there was lots of pretty, pretty dancing. Yay!

    We're all going to see HP4 on Friday, then having David Thewlis movie nite later at my place. Since David Thewlis won't be in the fourth movie, we thought we'd pay hommage to him.

    November 22, 2005
    And I hate lattes. They're not hard to make, it's just that everyone orders them and I'm sick of them.

    December 1, 2005

    ACTUAL CONVERSATION BETWEEN ME AND STEVE FATLA:

    Ringa: So you finished reading Book 3, right?
    Steve: Book 3?
    Ringa: Yeah.
    Steve: Yeah, like a week ago.
    Ringa: You finished the WHOLE book?
    Steve: Yeah.
    Ringa: So do you agree that Remus Lupin is gay?
    Steve: Who?
    Ringa: Remus Lupin. Gay.
    Steve: ...I haven't really thought about it.
    Ringa: Well think about it.
    Steve: Snape seems pretty gay.
    Ringa: Yeah, Snape's pretty gay.
    Steve: He's one of those angry gays.
    Ringa: Yeah. I think Snape and Sirius should hook up.
    Steve: There you go.

    Ringa: Snape wanted to be in the Marauders and was mad they wouldn't let him in the club.
    Steve: Who's that head kid from the family on the dark side?
    Ringa: Draco?
    Steve: Yeah. He's gay too.
    Ringa: Yeah just a bit.

    December 14, 2005

    Two weeks left to be 24.
    Happy 2008, Cruel World! So the internet at home has decided to work then not work then work again all willy nilly. It would be super nice if it worked a lot so I could get all my shit done, but I'm not complaining about the free.

    I need to save money this year like whoa, but that will never happen. I finally listed some of my craft stuff on etsy so maybe I'll make a bit of money there. If this internet keeps up I can do more ebay. And it turns out I am doing the next craft show in Feb. but splitting a table with Althea. I sent in my check for Tekko but haven't heard back so I'm not sure if I'm in there or not. I hopes, I hopes...

    So the new year has been thus far uneventful. We hella cleaned everything but the bedroom in our apartment, but that was on NYE so it doesn't even count. It was a nice quiet NYE, that ended in fireworks and Lemony Snickett.

    I'm trying to remember what happened last year and I can't. I'll check the old DJ but I didn't even post that much...

    -I really stopped talking to my grandmas, hardcore
    -we moved from Morrowfield to Beechwood
    -I had my monologue produced at Carlow
    -we went to South Carolina for vacation
    -I worked on Asparagus with Open Stage
    -Admirable Crichton with Ro (and everyone wanted to scream!)
    -went to Tekkoshocon for the first time
    -had our first Starbucks Christmas party IN our store with liquor and everything!
    -I directed a One Act at Carlow for the first time in two or three years, and it was the best one IMHO
    -Maria's car got towed for the first (and hopefully ONLY) time ever
    -Maria turned 21
    -Althea got really drunk at Lava Lounge and we had to leave, only to be harassed by an asshole cop outside
    -I SAW MORRISSEY
    -went to Cleveland
    -I got a Nintendo and record player for Christmas!
    -my craft shop looked more professional, with business cards and a blog
    -I was a featured reader at the Sphinx twice
    -Lenore had cute adorable baby kittens!
    -new phone and phone number
    -we had our Full Moon party
    -Luke was re-voted our mayor! I think he should change Pittsburgh's name to Ravensburgh
    -I did bunches of craft shows
    -went to all the fun Harry Potter stuff and read books 1-6 in about two weeks so that I had re-read them all before reading the last one ever!!!
    -did a show for New Works for the first time
    -got tonsilitis for the first time
    -was voted Barista of the Month at work
    -went home for the shortest amount of time during Christmas that I ever have


    Ok, looks like that might be about all. I'll add more later if I think of any. If you do, leave me a REPLY. I'm going out with Maria and her sister today b/c Maria had to leave her laundry at her dad's house b/c she was late b/c I was meeting Johnny to go out b/c I haven't seen him in two years. So there.

    And I really want to write today. WRITE.

    Motherfucking fuckers.
    I couldn't get my damn pictures to work on my damn craft blog, and of course it was a stupid mistake but my computer was out of battery and everyone was near the outlets at 61C and it was of course raining outside when I walked to Starbucks with Maria's laptop and my records and my long pants and no umbrella. But I fixed it. I was just really pissed off for a minute.

    Internet stopped working at home. Christmas miracle over. As is Christmas. Thank god. It wasn't that bad this year. The usual remarks from grandma, the usual annoyance from my sisters. But I was hardly there long enough for it to matter. So yay. Best Christmas in a while. Thanks Maz for enduring my family for 24 hours.

    So now I'm at Starbucks waiting for Michelle to get me in a few hours b/c we're going to see Jami (as in theatre Jami who lives in California now) in a sort of theatre family reunion. Minus Dani cuz she's moving and Jess cuz she's working and Steve cuz he's in Mt. Pleasant and some other random people. Yup. Should be fun.

    Now that I freaked out for about an hour over that damn html bullshit, I'm going to do some mindless surveys and quizzes to get me back to okay. So there.

    BTW... LOLOLOL:

    William Shakespeare

    Et tu, Ringa? Then fall, Caesar!

    Which work of Shakespeare was the original quote from?

    Get your own quotes:



    That reminds me of Jay sooooo much. Ha.

    All right, you know this is a special day because I'm actually going to use... a FAKE CUT!!! OMG OMG what to do!!! I know. I'm against them in principle, but if I don't have a panic attack over something in this entry like the craft one I made, I might just use them for all my surveys. Out of consideration for you. See how nice I am? Ok, here we go...

    There's some good ones in here so make sure you check it out!

    OMG THERE'S SURVEYS IN HERE!!! )



    OMG I hope this works... I picked it up from my friend Anthony's blog...




    ROTFLMAO!!!


    OMG, people make me giggle! Look at this blog excerpt I found on LJ:
    "Hey, lady on the subway.
    Get your stanky damn hair off my arm, please. Also, stop shoving your ass into me. I don't like it, and I will berate you loudly and publicly for your not washing enough. ::shudder::"

    I'm starting to feel kinda icky. I hope it goes away before I get out with everyone. I really don't want to work Sunday and was thinking of finding someone to cover the shift, but I really should go and get the hours. I've just spent too much money lately. Christmas, blah. And I bought all these nintendo games, which I don't really regret. But damn, I need me some money. I need to get listing on ebay, dammit.

    I need to work on my best of for the DJ. But I don't have time for it now. This woman is sitting near me and shaking her leg a lot and talking loudly on her cell phone. She is one of the three people in here, including me. And nobody of the two of us wants to hear her talk, I can tell you that much.

    All right, Michelle should be here any minute, so I'm gonna go. But I shall return... with a vengeance!
