Tonight it's Halloween. Here is how I looked all day today:

And here is what our beautiful pumpkin looks like:


I could probably know right now how I did on the portfolio revue tonight. But I don't want to. I didn't want to be depressed tonight knowing I was going to see some old friends.
I don't want to be depressed Thursday either because I am going to see Aerosmith. Next Tuesday, I don't want to be depressed at the fratority meeting. But next Thursday I don't have anything going on. That might be a good night for me to be depressed. I'll wait till then.

I know the guy next to me in class was like, "Oh my god! How could you stand not knowing?!" It's easy: if I passed I'll feel great, if I failed I'll feel like shit. If I just don't know I don't feel anything, but at least I don't feel like shit.

Current Mood:none
See how I'm not angry, or sad, or pissed, or suicidal? Life as far as I know it is neutral which is better than any of those things

If nothing else, the stress will be over with by tomorrow.

Then maybe, I can go shopping, and get this place cleaned up and organized, write some thank you notes, and relax.


I'm going to fail, I know it! I suck! I suck! I suck! Why am I such a loser?!?!?!?!?!

Current Mood:
stressed, and not liking myself very much

Mother of the Year Award
10.20.06 (9:08 pm)   [edit]
The mother of the year award goes to two women today.

I was outside of my store collecting carts scattered in the parking lot. And I saw a bunch of kids between the ages of about 6 and 10 standing on top of and marching on the line of shopping carts out in front of the store.
The two mothers were standing right there.

I had my manager go out and yell at them; she yelled at the kids but I think she really wanted to yell at the partents.

My god! So many things to say about all that but won't.

For some reason I have Monday off. Good for the fact that I should probably take a day to focus on portfolios, home stuff, etc. But I still need the money.

Run away
10.17.06 (1:31 am)   [edit]
I want to run away.

I just want to take my husband and go away from work, school assignments, portfolio revues, thank you notes, house cleaning/organization, and just vegetate, hang out without having to drive far away and just not worry or think about anything.

I can't stand this.

I am at work 9 hours, I come home, even if it's relatively early like 8:30 or so, and all I want to do is eat something and vegetate.

I need to do laundry, I desparately need to paint, this skeleton is due in two days and I have only added a forearm to it.
And caffiene lately doesn't seem to be helping these feelings. Maybe I just need more of it.

Last night, also when I should have been doing something else, Jeremy finally came home. And our original plans for that night fell through. (I doubt they will happen anyway, even though they have been "postponed." They never will). And we just sat here and didn't do a damn thing; nothing is open, can't spend money, don't feel like going out...
every idea shot down.

God. We have been married less than a week. Could we already be that boring?

Jeremy has managed to find fun tonight that doesn't involve me. How does that work?
Whoever he's having fun with tonight won't make him pay for booze probably.

I'm alone. I probably won't see him again until he gets off work tomorrow night (maybe). I could have gone with him, been bored, but at least gotten drunk, but with strangers and either passed out in said stranger's place or stayed sober enough to drive and been very, very bored.

This just as well because I need to stay home and work on homework, except that I'm to tired to work some more especially after working an extra hour longer than what I should have because the girl that's been there less than a week has already called in sick.

Yes, that does mean more overtime money. Seems like everytime I agree to do something for more money it's at the sacrifice of something school related; work an extra hour to be later and more exhausted at home, come in early tomorrow to skip going to Muir Woods for school...

Once again, I wish I was a giraffe. Giraffes only sleep 3 hours a day. Lucky bastards. I'll bet they don't work as hard either.

So much shit.

Current Mood:tired as hell

I haven't even started thinking about the daunting task of thank you notes...

I'm so tired
10.12.06 (4:56 pm)   [edit]
On Tuesday, Jeremy and I ate at the Hard Rock in Harvey's and by the time that was over with the snow had let up.

We went to Sacramento, opened many, many presents.

And ended up not leaving until after 8.

Some dumbass(es) at CalTrans decided that I-205 wasn't a bitch enough during daylight hours; so they made a two-lane road into a one lane road and we didn't get back till late. We just dumped all the presents in the apartment where they still sit.

Two days in a row now I've had to be somewhere at 8 in the morning.

If I absolutely didn't need to go figure drawing (not at a class) tonight, having not gone for the last two weeks.

So far behind on everything.

Imminent failurePortfolio Revue on the horizon...

Again, if anyone reading this (besides Bonnie) has pictures from the wedding, put them somewhere public (yahoo photos, photobucket, flickr, fotki) and send me a link.

Current Mood:tired

PS. I hope Jeremy's first earthquake is just a little 5.5 or so...

My Wedding
10.10.06 (11:02 am)   [edit]
I'll try and keep this short, but I know how that usually goes. And by short I mean short for not going into an excessive amount of detail about the wedding and these days leading up to it. If you only want to read about the wedding I suggest you Ctrl F Sunday now.


Tuesday, Jeremy and I had dinner at BJ's with his mom and stepdad, who he hasn't seen since January, and watched The Guardian. Good acting, a little long, tried to pack too much stuff into one movie.


Wednesday Tom and Christy came over to the apartment where Christy spent the night.


Thursday after class I went home and had my last meal out with my family as our nuclear family at the Indian casino.


Friday, my mom Jeremy and I met with the DJ at Mel's, had lunch and talked about the wedding.

Later that day, Jeremy and I went to the airport to meet his dad and aunt and take them to their hotel.

Even later that day, my uncle, mom and I went to the (same) airport to pick up my favorite aunt.


Saturday morning Kelly finally got up to Sacramento (the original plan was she would come Friday night). I got my nails done and eyebrows waxed for the first time.

My other maternal aunt and cousin came to our house and my mom, sisters and I cut and arranged roses for the tables.

Jeremy my dad and I had a meeting at the golf course with the minister.

After that, after everyone finally got there we ran through the rehersal.

We then had a nice dinner at the Spagetti Factory. My maternal grandmother and her "special friend" Bill gave us a large sum of cash and use of a timeshare club with its many locations which was very generous of them.

Then those of us that chose to came back to my house, hung out in the spa, exchanged bridal party gifts, drank margaritas, and ate cake in honor of Kelly's nearly glossed-over birthday.


Sunday my parents and aunts got up early to help decorate at the golf course.

The bridesmaids and I had an appointment to get our hair done. Kelly's girl called in sick which meant she had to get there earlier than expected. Very fun.

My dad and I took my car to the Hilton where Jeremy and I were going to spend the night.

I went to the golf course, got dressed, played hangman, until it was time.

Had the service. It was rather uneventful. I didn't know what to do with my hands some of the time; I felt like Ricky Bobby. And when we kissed neither Jeremy or I didn't want to make it look like we were making out, but the concensus was the kiss was too short so we did it again.

Lots of professional pictures after that.

The food was good. Nobody went away hungry and if they did it was their own damn fault.

To avoid having my picture taken some more I went around and greeted the guests and took pictures of them (as one might imgaine that plan didn't work so well).

Mike, my brother/best man gave a good toast that a few people confessed to me made them little teary.

Kelly gave a good sweet and funny toast.

The "moment" of the evening was when, unbeknownst to me or anyone else, my dress train came un-bustled, a couple of my mom's cousins stood on it, and when I walked away they fell down like litterally having the rug pulled out from under them.
Every event needs one of those moments that make it stand out from the others.

A friend from Jeremy's theatre caught the boquet, a guy in my fraternity caught the garter.

Jeremy and I danced to God Only Knows and my dad and I danced to Summer Song. I saw a bit a tear in my dad's eye during the dance.

Then the dancing floor was open people danced, and they slowly left.

We had the building, and the DJ until 10, my dad gently convinced the bar guys to keep the kegs open till then. A small group of people consisting of the bridal party, their dates, some aunts, uncles and parents, all stayed and danced and partied till the bitter end.

Then Jeremy and I went back to the hotel room.


Yestday morning we got up, did some stupid stuff, left for Lake Tahoe, got upgraded in our hot tub deluxe room at Mont Bleu (the hotel formerly known as Caesars). We enjoyed the room, gambled at our favorite spots at Harveys, 25 cent video poker bars where with a combination of luck, slow playing and fast gambling you can get 4 drinks for 2.50 as I did last night.


And this morning I woke up, saw that it was snowing, and I am now stressed about that.


Pictures coming soon. I'd be curious to know exactly how many pictures were taken Sunday. I just uploaded about 70 myself. Most of them don't have me in them.

If anyone reading this has a digital pictures, if they could upload them onto some semi-public website and we can compile all the URLs and have a big fat mega online photo album.


Current Mood:the pictures for the icons won't come up.

Snow

Snow?! Are you fucking kidding me?! The first time I drive to Lake Tahoe by myself it snows!

It couldn't've waited one bloody day and just been as sunny as it was yesterday...!

more later.

Current Mood: annoyed, worried...

I wish I could still be asleep.

I'm on my honeymoon
10.09.06 (6:09 pm)   [edit]
Well, more like a minimoon. I just happen to get internet access in this gorgeous room at the Mont Bleu (apparently, this room was upgraded) with a spa in it.

There is a lot to say about the wedding. It went really well, I think everyone had a lot of fun.

I guess that all I've got to say.

Curent Mood:relaxed

I'm getting married
10.08.06 (12:09 am)   [edit]
Yes, it's true, by this time tomorrow, I'll be a married woman and it will be all over but the shouting. And even that will probably be over with.

The wedding part is more surreal than the marriage part (and yes, those can be at least somewhat mutally exclusive ideas).

Current Mood:I'm to tired to keep my head up let alone find th edamn icons.

Sunday Weather
10.02.06 (10:16 am)   [edit]


Well, let's hope so. As one who is going to have to do a lot of walking around in the rain I'm not really looking forward to it. I need some better shoes. And probably some water proof pants.

My mother-in-law-to-be is coming Tuesday night, so once again, no extraneous figure drawing that night either. I have a minimum of 4 opportunities left. And I need to be working on cleaning up here more.

So much shit right now. I'm falling behind on everything!

Why does the damn portfolio review have to be so close to me getting married?!

I'm going to fail again, I know it!

I don't want it to rain again today or Wednesday as it seems to be supposed to.

Current Mood:really blah

Comic Strip
10.02.06 (12:57 am)   [edit]
I wish I had a comic strip now!

With everything going on, like, passing laws that say the president can like, totally ignore Geneva Conventions and Constitution, and not one damn Democrat person filibustering this into the ground, it makes me wish I had a comic strip that would ask the question, "What would it take for someone to get pissed off and say something?"

Would it be the president trying to pass a law that he gets to personally and directly execute anyone he wishes for no apparent reason, and with no due process?
Or would it be something cuter like killing kittens with hammers esp. on national television (divine right of presidents isn't the point of that cartoon, but give credit where due).

I'll bet people would react more to the president killing kittens than executing people. After all when the Vice President shoots people it becomes a sick joke. But innocent defenseless adorable kittens...

If/when I ever do get this thing going, ideas like this will be old news. I wonder if anyone cares anyway? Cares about news, not the strip. I know no one cares about the latter.

Incidentally, the last illustration I saw in the school paper, something about cell phones in cars. It was drawn in a crappy anime style and not funny.

I can see it now, they were having this meeting about the Point-Counterpoint about cell phones, and they said, "OK, so, we'll have this space between the two. Maybe there should be some kind of a cartoon or something there? Yeah, alright. Who wants to draw it?" "Uh, I will, I guess?" "Can you draw?" "I dunno. Sorta." "Great, whatever. Keep it clean and try and be funny."


Anyway, I guess there are no Mr. Smiths in Washington; just panders and people who don't want to come off as pinko extremist whack jobs for standing up for basic human rights.
