strolled into work this morning and everyone there chimes in that the phones and computers are down. i immediately start grinning from ear to ear at the thought of doing nothing all day but play free cell and listen to tunes on my mp3. then my dream was immediately crushed because they sent my entire shift home without pay for an hour. they couldn't even give me two hours so i could watch a movie, nope, just one. so i came home, loaded the dishwasher, paid my bills and rent, and now here i sit conversing (albeit one sidedly) with you fine folks. i haven't done a whole lot of updating recently so let's play catch up, shall we? several weeks ago i decided to completely give up on dating. i was dead set on months and months of singledom. then my best friend moved back to stl from chicago, and i realized i wasn't interested in other girls anymore because i was stark raving mad about her. so i kissed her, and now we're together. who knew. my birthday is in a couple weeks. i plan to celebrate by renting a car and getting completely shitty. or possibly vice versa. i guess that's it. who's ready to blow shit up on saturday?! i know i am!

i opened up a whole new can of worms tonight.

last night i learned that it's possible to get drunk enough to ask someone to punch you in the face and give you a black eye.

it's raining. i've mentioned before that i like summer rain. but that's neither here nor there. you know how if you work in a store or restaurant or any place that requires face to face interaction, if it's raining, you're going to be slow? well, i work in a call center. so no matter how much rain, lightning, or hellfire is falling from the sky, it's monday, so we're going to be busy as fuck.

all i want to do is stay up listening to music and chatting with katie. too bad i have a ten hour work day tomorrow that's going to kill all of my fun real soon.

i had a pretty nice day today. i dont remember why though. i was really tired, but i was practically pissing sunshine at lunchtime for some reason. i'm currently enjoying the sounds of summer rainfall, which i like. anyway, since i'm a bozo who can't remember the things i need to do for the life of me, i present to you:

jeff's to-do list (tonight and the rest of the week)
make dinner
put away laundry
load dishwasher
burn cds for alison
finalize tattoo designs
get tattoos (tomorrow at 5!)
email venues and get shows for my band
write lyrics to ripping model citizen songs, both old and new

i'm at a loss as to why i can't underline in this blog, thus resorting to italicizing the heading of my to-do list. i plan to make better use of this blog in the near future. fret not, baby birds.

is it lame that i write myself notes of things i need to do/look up on the internet? one of those notes was to tell you all that i read in cosmo this morning that astrological matches are ryan reynolds and robert pattinson. don't get much better than that.

so for almost two years, i've been getting these surveys in my email at work that are supposed to earn me rewards and i pretty much just ignored them figuring it would never pay. then last week, i filled out a couple for whatever reason and saw that i was building up $$$ rather quickly. so i've done a bunch since then and today i cashed in for $15 worth of borders store credit. batman graphic novels here i come!
