This journal is officially closed.

* I had the day off, so I enjoyed the weather.  It rained pretty much all day today.  I listened to Dead Can Dance, smoked a cigar, drank some wine and watched Vicky Cristina Barcelona.  I love you, Woody Allen.  I related to Scarlett's character more than I care to admit  - in every aspect.

* Sometimes I ponder about what I will think about my life when I'm older.  Such as when I'm 55 or so, will I think back to my twenties and thirties and think what a waste?  or will I think about how I tried to live my life the best as I could at the time.  I like to think of this and try to be carefree  (or dare I say, foot loose & fancy free?!)  This helps me make some decisions and not be so damn responsible and boring.

* I will never look at a pineapple the same again.  Thank you Dan, for coming into my life to let me know that they are the int'l food for "welcome"
Now, where the hell did you go so fast, come back before I lose interest....you're not done chasing me!

* Friday, 22nd, LBG is the place to be..... who from Dallas even reads this LJ anyway, so not that it really matters.  All my D-town friends are anti-LJ and pro-MS.

Things I really want to learn!!!
- Spanish
- Scuba
- Massage Therapy

My neighbor just rang my doorbell to inform me she would call Animal Control if I didn't take care of my outdoor cat, (the one that adopted me, sweet as can be) b/c he's been sitting on the top of her car.  She's afraid he'll "scratch it and I pay a lot of money for my cars..."  Are you fucking kidding me?!  Yeah, a 7 lb cat would do so much damage to your car, lemme tell you.  No, you just hate all animals, and you want to be a cunt.  Here's an idea, why don't you take off your do-rag, start looking like a woman instead of skanky ghetto crack whore, and tell your lil monkey of a child to stop being a loud ass brat at 10 o'clock at night.  You fucking ugly, loud bitch.  

Okay, i'm done, just had to get that out.

She told me today that there was a bear in the backyard!  Can't wait to visit and take my own pictures :)

Quotes from Metropolitan (1990) Written & Directed by Whit Stillman  (whom I find clever and very Woody-esk)
Kit, have you seen it?  You'd enjoy the witty humor.

"When you're an egoist, none of the harm you do is intentional."

"Most of our waking like is taken up by thinking to ourself."

"Everyone has some contraditions."

"Playing strip poker with an exhibistionist somehow takes the challenge away."

"I warn you, he's a Fourierist."

T: "He seems less pessimistic than you."
C: "I know, it doesn't ring true!"


F: "I'll be going now. I have nothing to say and I'm completely boring without a drink."
T: "It's only midnight, you can't go."
F: "I'm sorry but without the cocktails, staying up all night loses its charm. Besides I haven't had anything amusing to say since I stopped drinking."
T: "Did you have anything amusing to say before you stopped?"
F: "I know, but it seemed amusing, now it doesn't."
T: "Well, you were asleep!"

- I saw a huge double rainbow today, it was a great way to end my day at 8:15 p.m.  Sun, you may now set, thank you and see ya tomorrow.

- Twice in one day different men told me their favorite album was Appetite for Destruction.  Nope, just can't find anything to talk about if that's your #1.....call me shallow, or selective, don't care.  I'd rather be single than settle.

- I'm getting frustrated about money once again.  My savings has $0.00.  I live paycheck to paycheck.  And I still don't know how I'm going to afford to go to MD in Sept.  I will though!  Even if I have to get a new credit card (if i get approved - ha!) and charge my flight, I'm going to be there for the Craig & Kayce's wedding, damn it.  I need a second job...selling dope seems profitable but selling my body would be easier.  Hrm???

- I wanna be a floating marshmellow.

- I am addicted to true crime, murder mystery shows (like 48 Hours). 

- I guess I'll just have to wait to get certified in scuba until next year. =(

- This summer has been, um.....what's the word - "eyebrow raising interesting" 

My consumption list today has been odd:

1. South Beach peanut butter high protien cereal bar (fricken love 'em so much!)
2. One cup of coffee
3. Ice water
4. Can of Turkey chili (no beans) w/ my left over Diet Big Red
5. One mango (it was the sweetest and juiciest mango I've ever tasteded)
6. Oats & Honey Nature Valley Bar (cause it was free)
7. One strawberry blow pop
8. One Dos Equis 12 oz. bottle
9. PB crackers 

the end.

We said goodbye to a sweet soul today.  I had so much respect for this woman.  She saved my cousin and gave her a life she deserved.  For that, I am eternally greatful.  She truly was an amazing person whom I will miss greatly.  I can only hope to be more like her.  

 
Love you always, "Grandma #2."  You're Jennifer's angel now.
