cabin fever setting in.

all day yesterday i hermitted myself in the basement and watched heroes for 8 hours. my plan to repeat said action today has been foiled because:
a. family won't leave me alone.
b. family is tense due to boughts of cabin fever
c. my back hurts from laying on the sofa all day.
d. family is currently outside shoveling and is pissed because i said i would shovel my car out later, because apparently we're supposed to get more snow and i'm only shoveling once damnit.
e. i really could use cigarettes, alcohol of some sort and some good company.

ahhhhh. i could watch cabin fever actually. i really need to invest in that movie.

my wish for tomorrow is that when i wake up i will be completely snowed in and alone with a certain boy. we would cuddle and watch old movies and listen to records and it would be grand.

instead, i will probably be braving this supposed blizzard and going into work where i will have nothing to do and be freezing my ass off all day. oh well, it gives me an excuse to wear my docs. atleast boy will be at work too.

either that or i'll be stuck at home w. the family all day.

edit: snow too bad. boss called this morning told me to take the day.

also, adam carson is tweeting (twittering?)my brother (lochravenraider). holy shit.

getting drinks w. dane, jess and ally was exactly what i needed. dane is a wonderful man and an amazing friend and i'm saddened that i only got to see him for a few hours. he really put somethings into perspective for me. and who doesn't love an englishman who can rap jay-z songs?

we went to a bar in little italy. back by the bathrooms was all this wall art. i bunch of my dad's friend's names were painted on the wall. that was bizarre. but really heartwarming. like, my dad was probably getting drinks there w. his friends 20 years ago.

i still really hate christmas. but i found this old beanie i used to wear when i was goth. it's black and white stripe. it actually looks way cute now that i don't roll it up and wear it w. super curly, dyed blonde hair. well, i don't look jerbang anymore, anyway.

2009-12-10T23:22:39Z

i am exhausted. i want to stay home and watch heroes and do nothing. but i am going out tonight. driving to fells point, spending too much money on alcohol then driving home. why you ask. because, dane is visiting. and dane is one of the nicest english boys ever. he actually cares about his american friends unlike some people i know coughsebcough. so i am making a sacrifice. however, i will spend all day tomorrow complaining about how i shouldn't have gone out. then tomorrow night, after working all day, i am babysitting which i shouldn't have agreed to in the first place. go team. i need to hermit myself for a few days.

also, my alarm doesn't make me up anymore. fuck it.

however, i thought boy how to arrange a basket today. that was pretty cute.

one more paper left. it's due in 8 hours. i have a paragraph so far. i can't seem to go any further damnit.

i hate christmas time. really. well, there are some aspects i like. punk rock christmas songs are always fun. gremlins is my favorite christmas movie. i like baking things, like cookies. i started my christmas shopping the other day. i bought my cousin something i assumed she wanted. then today, i got an e-mail telling me exactly what my cousin wanted.. a giftcard. so i went back to target, returned said gift and got my brother's gift. only to come home and discover that my cousin asked for a target giftcard. i am an idiot. damnit, now i have to go back to target again. that's the third trip. ugh. i wanted to have my christmas shopping done by this weekend. guess that isn't happening. ahhhhh.

well, i got one person over w. anyway. so i guess that's good.

nothing new, really. first and only final today was sapora's. i think i actually did alright. i was pretty proud of myself because i managed to get an a- on the paper i wrote an hour before it was due for her class. i also have a b in tolstoy. sweet. i've got two papers for majer due tomorrow by 11:59 pm and i haven't started either. it kind of bothers me that i'm not worried. other than that i've been pretty obsessed w. heroes. went out and got drinks w. katie tonight. that was nice, i haven't seen her in a while. sarah and i had fun on friday making fun of zak bagans. work is super stressful but that's okay because kt and i have fun. and that is my life in a nut shell.

i really need to get the fuck out of this house. my still living here is killing any semblance of a relationship i could possibly have with my mother.

we just got in an argument over fucking green and red marshmallows. this is ridiculous.

also here is a tidbit of conversation between her and my brother.

"i called you today."-mom
"i was at work."-brother
"you know who you sound like?"-mom
"no."-brother
"her. you sound just like her."-mom

and then she proceeded to point at me from across the room.

since when is taking one's job seriously a crime?

fuck this shit.

boy's sister brought boy's nephew into work today so that i turned around to see a laughing boy carrying a laughing toddler (who looks just like him) in her arms around work. i openly gasped which prompted boy with a giant grin on his face to proudly introduce me to his nephew. cutest little boy ever. boy playing w. cutest little boy ever was the cutest thing i have ever seen.

seriously, heart melted and i started envisioning what our own children would look like. jesus christ this is bad.

thanksgiving dinner actually went pretty well. considering its my family. i'm ignoring the fact that i was on the verge of tears the entire time. have you ever felt completely abandoned, like an orphan? going to thanksgiving dinner where your everyone in your entire family is present except your parents will do that to you. i don't recommend trying it.

i have to say though, that my aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents are wonderful wonderful people and i am thankful for them times a million.

i hate the holidays.

i really wish you would have been there. but i wish that every year.

Put your music player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs.
Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first song is the title.

In This Shiver of Symphony

Through a crack in the shield, horizon's creeping
I step right off the edge, let the blood rush to my head
And I don't want you, and I don't need you
How can I just let you walk away
I want you to know that I'm happy for you

We both lie silently still in the dead of the night
Won't you please let me go
You went to school to learn, girl
Step right up, march, push
Going for a ride

Well Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born
I am a scientist - I seek to understand me
Sweet dreams are made of this
Anyone listen up
Got somethin' to say to you and you better listen -

Someone tell me why
It's more than love
How does it feel
You walk like a zombie

and again:

"everyone seems a little intimated."-interviewer
"we're very intimidating."-davey
"yeah, very scary people."-interviewer
"we're very tall."-davey
"are you?"-interviewer
"i'm not. no. i'm like 5'10". adam's got height, though...and those piercing blue eyes."-davey
"what can i say? i'm also really tall and tan."-adam

oh jesus. he really does have some piercing blue eyes.

stop being so damn cute. all right? and don't ever wear those tight jeans again. you're not actually supposed to look like some i would go for. for that matter, get rid of the studded belt. and please, don't tell me you want to read fight club. and stop filling out the crossword and arguing with me about chess games. jesus, i'm trying to get over you.

ahhh.
