32 on July 4th

Filed under: Amazon, Holiday — She @ 1:24 pm

These were the results from a facebook “Week You Were Born” quiz and it’s strangely accurate.

“You appear to be normal but are attracted to the unusual and bizarre. You let few people into your secret world. You can be wacky and zany and have a wilder side that only close friends get to see. You are a collector, reader, and movie watcher and are drawn to the dark side of human experience. It is hard for you to control your desires and you can become obsessive. You often retreat into your own world, you value your privacy and your home is your sanctuary. You ask little more then to be left alone but you are a great deal of fun for your close friends and family. You are sensitive, thoughtful and caring. Strengths: Fantasy Rich – Fun – Psychologically Astute Weaknesses: Self destructive – Obsessive – Embarrassing ”

Here’s me as a child in a Patriotic dance costume

Tonight I’m going 80s dancing for a friend’s bday. I have Friday off like most people. I’m meeting Mindy for lunch then hanging out with Nan later. Sat we’re going to the Japanese Steakhouse at 4. Karaoking that night. Sunday? Sleeping!

And, there’s still time to buy presents! LOL!

My Bday

Filed under: Family, Holiday — She @ 9:56 am

I told my parents that I don’t want to go out to eat at the Japanese Steakhouse for my bday, like I always do, because I know they don’t have the $$ to buy. Besides, my bro & sis-in-law most likely won’t be in town. It would be kind of depressing to just go out to eat with my parents. My best friends are either sick, out of town or are allergic to lots of food & probably can’t go.  It’s kind of depressing.

I Have a Case of the Tuesdays

Filed under: Dance, Food, God, sleep? — She @ 8:13 am

My seroquel is still hanging on this morning aka I want to crawl back into bed. It gives me bad dreams at night, but at least it knocks my overactive mind out. Too bad it lingers some mornings. I feel like I’m in a non-claritin clear fog.

Had garlic butter last night which did not make my body happy afterwards. Why do I have to be allergic to garlic? Yes, I have pale skin that never sees the light of the sun, and I’m allergic to garlic. Infer what you want.

Tomorrow night, I have the privilege of choreographing my aunt & uncle’s Christian Clown routine to Awesome God. Don’t ask. Seriously. Just don’t ask.

Meh. Want to get back under the covers. I do I do.

I Really Hate $$

Filed under: Money, car — She @ 3:32 pm

I really hate that although I work a full-time job and don’t even buy food, I don’t have money for gas or to pay all of my bills. So frustrating. My electric bill balance from last year is $150, so I owe $212 for this month, none of which I can pay. When I get my check on Friday, the entire amount will go to rent & the $212. That means I’ll have $0 for ANYTHING until July 17th when I get pd again – although all of that is spoken for too. Gah.

My car will be pd off in July so let’s keep our fingers crossed that it stays in good shape. The transmission is shifting funny between the 2nd & 3rd gear, so that’s a problem. I just charged $200 on my credit card (which is now back over the limit) to get an oil change & the transmission fluid changed.

I’m going shopping at the outlet malls with my friends this weekend, but I won’t even be able to buy myself something for my bday. My parents don’t have any money, so I know I’m not getting anything from them. My dad is getting a $500/month pay cut.

I got the good news in early June that I didn’t owe the balance of my hospital bill, but I won’t get any of the $1,000 back that I borrowed from my parents. I owe Jen $250 and Tannie $150, but I’m not sure where that money is going to materialize. perhaps out of my butt? Probably not. Oh well.

Money, I don’t want a lot of you – just enough to pay my freaking bills.
