4:05 pm - Siq new ink
|
got tattooed on Sunday -- finally went insane and got the cats' faces tattooed on my right thigh --- despite me thinking that my thigh fat would absorb any pain, it hurt like a bitch -- I'm really excited to get started on coloring it in, the background will include lots of greens, blues, and purples
otherwise, work is good, weather is good, life is good

6:46 am - I should take the time to re-cap
|
the events of the past several weeks ----
October 24th = Fall Brawl
- got caught in a torrential downpour driving down causing Adam to randomly drive my car part of the way
- saw a shitload of people that I love with all my heart
- got to spend time with a certain someone
- said someone got knocked down a couple pegs sadly due to poor hardcore participation
- Stout, All Out War, and Bulldoze were so fucking good
- Breakdown and Gut Instinct were top notch, happy I finally got to see them
- spent the night at Hayes' which always rules
October 31st = Wheeling Halloween
- got to ride in a band van for an extended amount of time for the first time
- picked up Ray from the bus station to tag along
- Wheeling
- just Wheeling
- best big spoon experience ever
- the events of the hotel room shall remain hilarious and almost illegal
November 7th = WIC record release show
- got Neato Burrito in my stomach
- got a new coat at Gap which rules
- got to see a shitload of people I love with all my heart
- appreciated every second of Land of Kings as per usual
The new job is going well - apparently other coworkers have faith in me and my ability to do my job, which is not being said about the other new hires - I didn't think I'd enjoy working with adults again, but so far, its been very rewarding and I've met a lot of cool people
thank my cats for waking me up early as the reason I finally posted this :)
(my birthday is in 2 days, yeesh)

11:35 pm - STP
|
So I finally saw Stone Temple Pilots this past Saturday in Reading -- initial plan was to head to the Youngblood Records showcase, but I somehow convinced Chris to go see STP while finishing up at Neato Burrito
the crowd was hilariously white - it seemed we were in the section with the largest quota of drunk men, which was well worth the ticket price alone -- one dude looked like a thin George the Animal Steel, not quite as hairy, but his tattoos made it seem like back hair if I squinted
STP sounded fantastic, so glad I went -- even though Chris was sadly they mainly focused on songs from Core and Purple, I could not have been happier since they are my preferred albums -- they even played Sin which officially made my year
they're all super thin now
Scott came out in a 3-piece suit, it was heavenly

"Yo, you a Suicide Girl now?"
"Well, guess I'll be hanging out in King of Prussia a lot more"
Skamz maintains his role as the most ridiculous human ever
Most adorable and ridiculous goes to Tony Hare
Best smelling and ridiculous goes to one Douglas E. Fresh
Most lethal and ridiculous goes to Sammy and his BFL branding iron
NRSV should stick to playing Baltimore

7:43 am - Samuel L Jackson, Kevin Spacey, and Denzel Washington
|
were just in my dream -- follow this.............
I was in a pet store with my father looking for cat food - there were 2 incredibly interesting looking cats roaming around the store and I was hanging out with them - I hear a familiar voice moving up and down the aisle next to mine - apparently the store did celebrity 'worker' appearances, and sure enough, it was Samuel L Jackson wearing an employee uniform
He was pushing around a huge broom so I went to check him out - he was sweeping like a mad man, so much so that he swept my father into the wall and took him off his feet - I sat down to check out what the hell was going on and notice Denzel Washington - not wholesome Denzel, but tough-as-fuck shaved head/take no bullshit Denzel - for some reason he sits directly on the floor in front of me, then proceeds to lean back and use me like a chair, which I am 110% fine with - I think Tad showed up at this point sitting to our left, can't be sure
Then somehow it went from Samuel L to Kevin Spacey talking to us - before I woke up, I clearly remember him having on bejewelled plaid pants - Denzel had fallen asleep on me - then it turned into a Spiderman dream, cartoon style

12:33 pm - It's gorgeous outside
|
Disgustingly nice out! I'll be spending the day driving on the Turnpike and then sitting out in my parents backyard hopefully getting a minimal amount of sun on this pale skin
If I still lived in Pittsburgh, I would be heading to Raccoon or Moraine for some sun by the water fo' sho'
Also if I didn't note yesterday, I had probably the best textual conversation with my future baby's daddy -- I was one excited girly camper to put it mildly
current mood:  happy

10:02 pm - Today was a very good day
|
Got hired for a new job!
Did not get stuck in downtown Philly traffic
Laughed my ass off for:
- the first 30 minutes of Hot Rod (had to turn it off before my interview)
- Parks & Recreation (hopefully the rest of the season will be that good)
- The Office (Andy Bernard continues to be the best on there)
Had quality lounge time with both Buddha and Cash
Had a guy tell me he wants to be "more than friends" (don't get excited, nay)
Ate cheese and chocolate ice cream at the same time
Tomorrow morning at 10am I have to awkwardly tell my supervisor that I quit.......
current mood: chipper

1:52 pm - 9/11 =
|
so far:
- lots of rain
- Bon Iver
- Maggiano's cavatappi
will now include:
- napping
- massive amounts of cat snuggling
- me desiring a man to curl up with
I'm surprised at the "lack" of 9/11 coverage today -- maybe I'm just purposefully trying to avoid news channels so I don't have to "deal with it"

10:35 pm - My time away from LiveJournal
|
Has involved some massive changes to my life -- I literally feel guilty about not posting as many entries as per usual on this thing, but for some reason, I just haven't chosen to write things down on a daily basis
I moved from Pittsburgh to outside Philly for starters - why? For multiple reasons:
- pursue PsyD degree next fall
- more shows
- more men
- change of pace
- if I didn't do it pre-PsyD, I don't think I ever would have
it's not that I disliked my experiences out in Pittsburgh, I just felt like things weren't going up at all -- I didn't see any chance for advancement at Southwood, had no dating prospects whatsoever, was consistently one of the older people at shows, no new excitement, etc etc
granted, a lot of the above things can be attributed to my lazy nature -- could I have found a lot new things to do? of course -- could I have started booking more shows in the hopes of bringing out more people? indeed -- could I have gotten out of my comfort zone socially? yeppers
The move has brought about changes in me personally that definitely would not have occurred had I stayed in Pittsburgh, namely, the return (at times) of my depression
The act of moving took a lot out of me, and it forced me to leave behind a lot of things at the old place in Pittsburgh - none of this stuff had super strong sentimental value, but if you know me, you know how big of a pack rat I am -- I hang on to shreds of things, or ideas of things, because in my mind I imagine them having a payoff somewhere down the road
I do not have a current full time job, which means a ton more time sitting home alone with my thoughts -- I had been 99% clear of depression back in Pittsburgh, having it only come up rarely and randomly -- now with the move, it's come back. Not as strong as been history (thankfully), but I notice myself sitting around doing nothing, and I mean nothing. I sleep a lot more during the day. I look around my new place and see so many things I need to sort/put away/organize, and I let them sit there because I have no motivation. The times when I do get off my house and put things in their place around the house it makes me feel extremely good at least.
I've spent the past two weekends at my parents place just so I'm around other people. The only things I've done socially (outside of shows) is Wednesday wing night, which is nice, but it's only a small part of the week. I've been reconnecting with old Harrisburg friends, which has had its ups (Steve, Chris) and downs (Chuck). I know in time things will turn around, it's just that massive amount of stress that comes naturally with a change from routine/consistency.
I'm extremely excited about visiting Pittsburgh this weekend. Thursday is now Chelle's birthday party at Fun Fore All which I really hope I can get out to. Friday is Stef's rehearsal dinner and bachlorette party, which I pray happens at the Tennyson. Saturday is Stef's wedding and my time to sprain an ankle in heels. I want copious amounts of picture taking to be done at all events, and I want my chubby face in as many as possible.
To the Trifecta: I love ya, I miss ya, I'm excited to see ya
