    update

Not feeling particularly talkative, but lots going on in my brain. Been writing (for money) to see go here http://www.helium.com/user/edit_show/330874 yep.

    My best friend's mother just IM'd me. A girl I knew in highschool died today. She was hit from behind by a drunk driver. She graduated in the grade ahead of me. I wasn't friends with her really, but I knew her. Everyone in my school knew each other, there was only 3,000 people in the town. She was in choir, and only 21 years old. I keep thinking I shouldn't be so upset, I barely spoke to her. I guess I'm just tired. I'm sick of people dying. I'm tired of losing people, tired of watching people hurt. Sick of hurting.

    hah
    Wouldn't you just know it? Along with the vicious bunnies, humanity also struck sometime last night.

    This morning we went out to the car to go to work, only to find the trunk was wide open and the driver's side window all smashed in. Yep. They broke into the car...again. That brings the grand total up to four! After break in there hasn't been anything even in the car worthwhile, nothing but a stuffed garfield. The face plate is off the stereo so they can't get at that.. from the way the crime scene looks, all they wanted was the trunk. They smashed the window, popped the trunk. Everything else in the front was complete, my door was locked and untouched. Once in the hatch-back's trunk, they reached up to grab the change in the center console. SO what did these people get from the car after all their efforts?

    - 3-5$ in change
    - The emergency car kit
    - Two twelve packs of wal-mart brand soda meant for D&D night

    they left the brand new car parts sitting in the back, and never bothered to even go through the glove box.

    My nightly journey
    Tonight as I journeyed through the darkness back to my home I had a thought. One of those deep thoughts that made you really stop and think. ((Except that I was on a bicycle in the dark, and stopping too quickly to think could have been hazardous to my health. But regardless,))

    Before me were two paths in to the darkness that each lead around the park. One was the sidewalk, closer to the road, and one was the bike path which cut close along the edge of the wilderness. Both paths were nearly pitch black, the streetlights too dull to light my way. My only real light came from the flashlight I had strapped to my bike with twine. What was this grand thought you may ask? As I pondered which path to take, I thought to myself:

    Which do I fear more, humanity, or the monsters?


    (If you didn't understand that, the monsters being any mystical badies that may be hiding in the woods, humanity, human badies on the street)

    Surprisingly, I arrived at the answer suddenly. What was this answer, what do I fear the most in the night?

    Bunnies.

    Not 10 seconds after I thought that thought provoking question, a bunny exploded through the bushes, creating a great deal of noise. (perfect timing, just like a spook in a halloween haunted house)

    I'm afraid of bunnies in the night.

    Starting over
    I have decided I am sick of being boring. I go to work, type meaningless names and numbers into a computer for eight hours, come home pay bills and clean the house. You might say, "Thats what being an adult is all about," but I refuse to belive thats true. An important part of me has slipped away, and its not the fault of age, or time or responsibilities, its my own. Yes, I have grown up, yes, I have bills, but thats no exuce for me to lose who I am. When I was younger my greatest fear, the thing that scared me more than anything, was that I'd lose my imagination, and I almost let it slip away unnoticed.

    I've always felt that there was someting more to me, something deep within my soul that was, well almost not human. A creature of the trees and of the earth, ancient and beautiful, immortal. Laughing into the wind, laughing as she watches the lives of men flutter past as if a dream.

    A dryad or fae, perhaps. Now granted, I don't actually think I'm immortal, please don't get me wrong, this is simply the way I visualize this side of me. This is my side of fantasy and magic, the wild, untamable part of me that belongs to the earth. She is my muse.

    (This is what happens when you grow up in the northwoods of wisonsin on fantasy novels and movies like "Robinhood men in tights" and the princess Bride. My first imaginery friend...was Robin Hood)

    There was a time when I wrote, read, sang, sculpted, acted in plays... I need more art in my life again. I'm sick of feeling uninspired, just running in the rat race. That will not be the legacy I leave behind.

    And so, thanks to a good jolt of...er..unreality and a nice new book series to re-light some old flames, I shall begin the task of revitalizing my life.

    So..yeah. What to talk about? Still a little home sick. Always home sick. It doesn't matter what I do, that will always be there, but I bet if I moved back home I'd miss it here. *sigh* Can't I just own a private jet and fly back and forth? Still with boyfriend. It will be five years soon. We fight like an old married couple :-P What would I do without him? (I don't know, were always together, I'm going nuts!) haha. We're still happy though. I'm about to start a tough string of classes. Having a career takes too much work :-P I have to take 4 chemistry classes and two physics classes, and thats just to transfer *cries* I'll get though it though. I prefer being in school to being stuck at a computer doing data processing for 8 hours.
    In other news, I'm bored!!!!!! Need to get out more. If I'm lucky I'll have saved up enough to go to europe next year. It'll be my first time over seas. :) very excited. Not much else for now.

    Well, eventually I will get to adding an entry about my trip. Just like I'll eventually get around to finishing the design of my LJ, and a number of other things.

    All in all things are going well. I had an interview today at Petsmart, and am hoping for interview number two. Other than that its been the usual. Sleeping, eating, working, being an online geek, the usual. I'll be starting school in the fall. YAY ME! Very exceited about that.

    So yep, so far all is well.

    Well soon is my vacation to wisconsin. It is a much needed vacation from work. Yep. Work is swiftly driving me crazy. Will be looking into new-more wildlife related jobs very soon

    So yes. Tired. Very tired

    SO..
    Wanna have a crappy day competition?

    Lets talk about irony.

    Today I go to work. I stop a guy from stealing 6 dvds or so. yay. I stopped theft from my company.

    Lunch rolls around. I'm walking home (one block away only) talking to my boyfriend on the phone. The phone dies. I get a nice load of pepper spray to my face, and guys demanding everything I have. My phone is now dead and I am blind, in pain and have no purse.

    I save Target from theft. Half an hour later, I get robbed.
    Let me just tell you. Pepper spray is very effective. Sadly, its not always used for defense.

    The guys fled, and thankfully a neighbor witnessed the whole thing, called the police and helped me (and went and got chris). What proceeded was somewhat like chineese water torture, but beneficial. I got to stand under a shower running water through my eyes for 10-15 minutes while the cops asked me what happened. Luckily besides the visious burning pain, I was not hurt. Typical thug, didn't want a murder warrant, just my money. (I only had a dollar and 29 cents anyway.)

    Also thankfully, they caught the guys almost immediatly. (As in 20 mins or so.) So I got my purse back (including my 1.29) and they got arrested. May I saw, once again for the record. OW. They also stole my jelly beans :(

    Also, strangely. It just so happens that the first cop on the scene was the first cop on the scene when chris's car was robbed (but he got everything back.)

    Apparently they had a pellet gun in their possesion when they found them.

    Fun Fact: Pepper Spray easily induces panic attacks. Thankfully I still had the sense of reason to give them what I had and know what was going on. I have an oddreflex built up from my childhood where I don't break down and cry till the danger has passed and everything is settled.

    It happened when I was in the car crash too. Everyone else was screaming and crying, I was deadly calm till I was safely in the house. Not that I wasn't freaking out. The original panic attack was not fun for the 911 operator I'm sure, but I got through the cop part fairly calmly. THEN in the semi-privacy of my own home I did the final freak-out.
    But, I am still here to tell the tale.

    So yeah. Glad I'm still around. I feel like I'm on fire. Thus concludes another day. Folk at Target will have much to talk about.

    Current Mood: uncomfortable

    What presicely is the point of my job? I make all the clothes look nice again, put them in order, put everything back on the shelf ans straighten..for what? So tommorow more people can come in and mess with my stuff so I have to start all over again. Talk about unproductive. Or Productively doing an unproductive task.

    Anyway

    Thought I shouls update. Don't really have much to say. I have a test in a few days, and I'm trying in vain to gain some of my flexibility back before my first dance class. (still quite far away, but) And so far, thats pretty much it.

    As long as there are no more car break-ins to report, I'm happy.

    OK NOW for the full update.

    Well, the real V-day pretty much sucked. I worked all day at Target....MAN you should have seen how many guys were rushing in an hour before close, going to the jewlery boat to get jewlery for their significant others. Losers.
    Other than work, Chris got his car broken into. They stole his stereo, and his sun glasses. It also so happened his favorite cd player was in the CD player at the time.

    SO. Our Valentines day was postponed. Chris and I drove to San Diego and spent the night and the following day there. It was very nice.

    The first night-since we arrived at six, was just for kicking back. We chilled at the hotel, which we found out was hosting a bunch of hockey players for a big tournament. (We were in the pool with the team from Alaska, which was how we found out)

    The next day (today as it were) we went to Balboa park, which contains the San Diego Zoo and many many museums. Due to winter hours we sadly did not go to the Zoo. A large dissapoint for me, but the zoo is huge and needs a full day which the winter hours do not provide. We did go to the museum of Natural History, however, and among many things, saw a exhibit on the history of chocolate, which, naturally ended in a chocolate store. (which was, of course, over priced.)And I was,of course, by this time drooling and craving large large amounts of chocolatey goodness.

    We then proceeded to go to the gaslamp disctrict for shopping and dinner. (We ate at the Hard Rock Cafe.) We wne to Hot Topic, which was having a ginormous clearance sale. I got a set of stationary, a necklace and a small bath set for $3.73, which, for any of you who shop at H.T may know, aint bad at all. We also, after seeing all that chocolate stoped, in at Ghiridelli's (and bought chocolate.) HArd Rock was very amusing and fun. Food was great. Souvenirs were over priced, and not so great. (was hoping for a cool shot glass-was dissapointed) All in all it was a good trip.

    Current Mood: drained
    Current Music: Nothing, since the stereo is gone *sniff*

    Voting
    And so my day begins going over all the propositions so I can be a good, informed voter. Just because you're young doesn't mean you shouldn't have any say, its your future! Be informed and vote! Wheeee. Personally, I've been looking forward to the 2004 presidential election for years. C'mon a great year for me. I turned 18, I graduated, the summer olympics were here, AND I get to vote!! But anyway,thats my voting spiel for today.

    And so life goes on. Went to two parties for halloween, one Courtneys (rhizdii's sister) and the other a small movie watching party at our own place. We went a little nuts decoration wise, but hey thats what you get when you have three people who love decorating for halloween living under one roof. Watched movies, (elvira and evil dead 2) gave little kids their sugar fixes, watched some weird ass videogame a friend bought and went to bed. Oh yes, this year for halloween I was a dominatrix faerie with a larger bull whip. Hrmm which evidently turned out more useful than I thought. Certain people when intoxicated... ((not me, I was good and drank no alcohol, it was others who decided they wanted beating)) BUT ANYWAY...was an interesting Halloween, and I will be sad to see all the decorations go.

    Course, there was the dry ice incident...but..you can read that in rhizdii's journal. Lets just say, I was quite pisssed and showed just a tad of my inner bitch...

    Other than that, life goes on as normal. I work. A lot. And then some more....And then I lounge around the internet. And thats basically been me lately...

    Anyway, I have some specific things to do today, involving html, so I shall sign off for now
