The Abyss

I love vacation

2007-01-05T05:27:48Z

There are two types of crazy. The first kind involves good friends and in my case, usually good tequila. Then there's the second kind. The kind where I get caught in the middle of some stupid, crazy-ass drama that is too immature for high school. I'm all set with that kind. Grow thicker skin, own up to your shit and don't fuck with my best friend. Bottom line. Do not fuck with my best friend. Wanna test me?

Are you dead?

Plans changed a lot this week. The weekend turned out ok, although completely different that what was expected. Now I'm waiting for a phone call and to register for classes. I won't hold my breath for the phone call.

Rockin through the night

Tony's gone again. It makes me feel lame. He was my excuse not to be a good sister. I don't even know what that means anymore. He's more than an excuse. To be completely cliche, he's my rock. I'm going to watch Saturday Night Live soon.

I miss MCLA but there's a part of me that's almost afraid to go back, even if it is just to visit. I hate that lives continued even though I transferred. Today blows.

I hate being sick. On the bright side though, I got to sleep till noon, lay on the couch all day and watch Eight Men Out which was really good. Our new couch was delivered today. It's kind of ugly, but it's comfortable I guess. I need more nap time.

Very not fucking okay.

Everything's in slow motion

I feel like I have a hangover, but all I drank last night was water and lemonade. Maybe I should have had the beer. When I was in the fifth grade, I was going to run away to California with my best friend, Patty. I chickened out at the last minute. We were going to steal her mom's car because Patty knew how to drive it. I remembered that for some reason last night. We would have been caught within the first twenty four hours, I'm sure, but I wonder how things could have been different. Some part of me still thinks that everything is perfect in California. Maybe if things stay the way it is right now, I'll go there for a while. It could be good. At least it would be new.

That's the way we became the Brady Bunch

I think Tony went running, but I don't know. CSI is on. My new tat kinda hurts. It's puffy. I hope I won't die. We're going to a farm party tonight around nine and then sleeping in the back of Tony's truck under the stars. I hope there aren't a lot of mosquitoes. I hate bugs. The pillows are missing. Ton's mom is upstairs chatting with her friend whose name I can not recall. She scares me a little. i think a nap may be in order.

What was I thinking

2006-07-11T22:00:45Z

So I'm in Maryland, staying with Tony's family through the 22nd. Things are going well. We got back from our cruise to Bermuda on Sunday where I discovered, much to my dismay, that I'm going to have to work on that whole sea legs thing. That'll be interesting, as I plan on keeping a sailor around for a while. I got a tattoo tody. Tony did too. It was a bonding experience, and the artist, Virginia, was really freeking cool. I need a nap. A nap and batting cages and mini golf.

We could be happy too

2006-06-19T02:08:58Z

The Red Sox are on, but disturbingly enough, I'd rather be watching the Ultimate Coyote on CMT. Tony's leaving really early tomorrow morning and I have to go to stupid class which I'm seriously considering skipping except for the fact that I have a stupid freeking quiz every freeking day. I hate summer school. Some things I love...

1. flat, ice cold root beer
2. Friday nights with the girls
3. Chill nights with a few friends
4. Thunderstorms at the beach
5. Singing the phrase, "Douche bag"
6. Shopping for things I don't need
7. Thinking about a month long vacation to Bermuda/ Maryland
8. Those automatic givens who I am not mushy enough to mention

Thank you.

Mom's comin 'round to put it back the way it oughta be.

I don't know what to say about last night other than that the Richardson brothers are fantastic in my book. Now it's time to go back to the real world, and the ass holes.

I saw George at Old Navy the other day. Sadly, Onjalon was not with him.

I feel extremely isolated. Bored. That's nothing new, but I do have a new kind of restless. My boyfriend and best friend are on adventures. Of course, I only get to talk to my boyfriend every 15-30 days and my best friend could potentially be in a pretty dangerous situation, but they are out living their lives. It's so short. I wonder why there is a need to spend four years of precious life sort of trapped in theoretical further education when we could be out there learning from experience. Why the need to be rich when we can live off so little. Who needs an expensive home when they're traveling the world so much on personal adventure after personal adventure that there's no time to live in it. It's cold in my house.

Aint got no time to get old

Feeling down. Life is boring. Need a drink. Going to MCLA Wednesday. Head exploding. It was great to hear from friends home for spring break. Oh wait. Commence the wallowing in self pity.

I don't know who I am today

2006-02-07T04:03:58Z

I used to listen to Ben Harper with Lisel all the time. I went back and forth a lot, and when I think about it, she really wasn't a very good friend, but that was such a fantastic time in my life. All the beautiful drama. The pretty lies I told myself that held me securely in a make-believe utopia. Maybe if I backstroke I can regain who I was. Maybe remember who I want to be.

Always come unglued

2006-02-05T19:03:36Z

So many papers to write. So many people to please. I just don't want to do this anymore. I'm bored and I'm hung over and I think this whole thing sucks. I'm celebrating the superbowl tonight with corn dogs and maybe a couple beers, but that depends on whether or not the headache from the past few nights of drinking goes away first. Actually, that probably won't stop me anyway. Tony's going to bring me back some baseball cards from Japan. I won't know what they say, but I'll be excited anyway. Only four more months of this bullshit and then the rest of my life.

Though I guess it's reality

2006-01-20T05:08:44Z

Classes started up again and they seem pretty cool so far. I guess that kind of eases the blow of the fact that I'm going to be in college forever. I think if I ever get married, my significant will have a limit as to how frequently we see out in-laws. Like, maybe once every 3 to 6 months would be good. For sanity's sake. Except for Nicole because I'm making the rule and I say so. I wanna stay in my bed forever.

I went out to dinner with Dan tonight and then we watched Sideways. I accidentally stole his Red Sox hat.

Once during the war my Nana and a friend of hers planned a dance at some hall in East Boston for the sailors. They contacted the USO who said they would send over the soldiers if the girls took care of everything else. They decorated the hall, got some local musicians to play for free and brought a bus load of girls. The sailors never showed. My nana, in responce, got on the bus with her friend and drove around until they came upon a gaggle of sailors, not long after. She invited them to the dance at the hall, where the rest of the girls still waited, disappointed at the lack of potential babies' daddys' and wound up going back with a bus load of soldiers. The dance was a wild success.

She told me that story last night over pie while her husband, a former WWII soldier was lying in the hospital, where it seems all they can do is make him comfortable for the time being. He's still there now. My Uncle is staying at her house tonight. He's heard all her stories and laughs when she gets confused. It can be funny, I'll admit, but not while she's trying to distract herself from the fatct that her husband of 60 years is dying.

Here I sit, wondering when my boyfriend is going to work out his internship and when I'll have enough money to do the abstract things I want. Trivial.

We could be "heroes"

I feel very cold. Very lonely. Once I thought this was old. I still do. I don't need any hugs, just a phone call.

I just failed my bio test. I had something I really wanted to say, but now I forget what it was. Fuck. Shane's coming soon.

My how I miss MCLA tonight. I was informed by my father that I could not go out with Ed because my room is not clean. I thought I was a junior in college and almost 21 years old. I must have been mistaken. I wish New Orleans didn't get fucked up. Maybe Santa Barbera would be nice. Or someplace on the coast of North Carolina.

If I'm ruining anybody's life it's my own.

Easy like Sunday Morning

2005-11-20T05:17:57Z

Tony's leaving for Hawaii tomorrow morning. He's back in NY right now and I'm dealing with whatever issues I have with it.When he's in Japan and Tiwan and all those other places I might have more of a problem with it.

My Uncle died earlier today. I don't really know how to feel about it. I thought he was a little creepy but he was still my uncle.

A fantastic beginning to a fantasticly lonely 8 months.

I am 49% Wench. That means that 82% of the general population is less wenchy than me. I forgot how awesome The Spark is.

I went to my cousin Melissa's wedding in NH this weekend and it was lushtastic. The ceremony was hysterical because the Justice of the Peace was sarcastic, the mother of the bride couldn't get her candle lit and Melissa kept whispering to her bride's maids during the ceremony. The she laughed and got this ridiculous look on her face when they were pronounced husband and wife. It was like she couldn't believe she was actually married. Either that or it was the, "Oh shit, what did I just do," look. Either way, it was good. After the ceremony, there was an open bar and a great band all night long and man were my dancin' shoes on.

Look out, now I'm getting ideas.

I think Tony's coming tomorrow. I really hope he's coming tomorrow, but for some reason I have this aweful feeling in the pit of my stomache that's telling me something's going to go wrong with the whole thing.

Midterms, boooo

2005-10-27T15:48:37Z

BRIGHAMS CAUGHT ON FIRE! I was at work the day before yesterday and had to be evacuated because Brighams was burning down. Never would have happened were George still behind the grill.

Midterms, which are usually spread over one week, have lasted a good three weeks. Tony's leaving next week, Dan's coming back next wekk, and I'm forever losing my mind.

I hate ugly fat 30 year olds on The Price is Right.

Erin wants me to go to work at 1:30 instead of 5:30. She should have scheduled me for 1:30 in the first place.
