The temporary Hastings thread

(all-morning training session simultaneously suck and rule, btw)

J. has a cold and she seems to have croup. This is the conversation I woke up to, for your entertainment:

J: Mom! I had a waffle for breakfast and I sneezed and I coughed and goop came out of my NOSE.

Me: (sympathetically) Oh, yuck!

J: No, COOL!

Whiskey dick was good though.

they must've spammed like every band in the twin cities.

leroy smokes won i guess? they've been around for ever.

In any case, EVERYONE but Whiskey Dick was AWEFUL.
13th Step has a FOLLOWING?
ONE CHORD BULLSHIT with UGLY UGLY people.

The band oafter that was LITERALLY one chord bullshit with a plastic diggerydoo player.
That's when rahb and I left.

about to leave for three straight hours of meetings with my most favoritest clients in the world. (previous statement might be sarcastic)

please shoot me.

John - how's your car doing? Did you have your finger re-attached?

Suzy - YAY, you're coming HOME!!! (Christ, it's cold, though.)

Case in point: the year A. and I moved into an actual house, he switched jobs - and there was a month or so when we didn't have enough money to do anything but pay the mortgage payment. In December. Oh yeah, and we had a new baby, too! We still had Christmas, though - and I don't think we used credit cards, either... You just have to get a little more creative. And you can do that for sure, if anyone can. And that's the end of my pep talk.

1. West Side Story t-shirt (yes, from high school)
2. the ND t-shirt I brought home from Indiana with the legend "SEX KILLS" on the front and "...so come to Notre Dame and live forever" on the back
3. t-shirt from Lollapalooza... the first one.
4. a hideous pair of pajamas that A. says I "used to wear in college"

I'm actually afraid to go to the next shelf now.

THAT is why that city once had(still does have?) the highest per-capita murders.
45 minutes into that I was ready to kill anyone.
HATE.
On the streets of Minneapolis I slowly build a deep-seated hatred of all things around me until I'd prefer a multi-kiloton device to blast everything(FUCKING STREETS THAT FORCE YOU TO GO PLACES YOU DON'T WANT TO) into a fine mist than to spend other minute there.

St. Paul generally fills me with a soothing peaceful feeling, but Grand Ave. seems to want to be Minneapolis really bad. "Fuck you! You'll never park! HAHAHAHA! Another stop light!!! Want to do something here? TOO BAD! Some guy is stopping you from going to your favorite restaraunt!! AND IT'S HIS JOB!!!"
But it's still better than Minneapolis.
Why? Because YOU CAN LEAVE GRAND AVE.
I can't get out of Minneapolis(save the city center after midnight) in under 30 minutes.
"WANT TO GET TO THE HIGHWAY!?? TOO BAD! THIS ROAD SUDDENLY CURVES!! Now...3 ONE WAY STREETS THAT FORCE YOU TO GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME OR GO FURTHER AWAY FROM YOUR GOAL!!!"

In St. Paul, there are at least 2 ways to get anywhere.
In Minneapolis there's one.
Then you don't get to park.

DOOM.

I feel better now.

That's why I couldn't park.
or drive
or go 5 minutes without talking myself down from aother panic attack.

A goddamned parade.
"Come on, kids! I want to feel like I'm giving you special memories because I've long forgotten how uncomfortable I was at these events. Let's go look at christmas lights that aren't as well done as the guys down the street! The best part!? You don't have(get) to move!"

I'm gonna eat a roast beef sandwich and take some calcium.
Maybe my bloodlust will settle down.

I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL JAPANESE CHRISTMAS.
ONE WEEK OF SHOPPING.
1.5 DAYS OF CELEBRATION.
IT'S OK TO GET DRUNK AT THE PARTY...WITH YOUR FAMILY.
NO (serious) CHRISTIANS TO FUCK THINGS UP.

Joyous YULEtide, everyone.
I wish I had some fucking booze right about now.
(I'd think I was chemically imbalanced with the number of people that have been pissing me off, but none of my friends are annoying me, nor are the people I meet at asian restaraunts, homes, or parties. I think I hate Americans...and the swedish. Never met a swede I liked. Sorry. CUlture clash)

GUESS WHO'S PLAYING A HOUSE PARTY TONIGHT?

I think that trumps my evening plans of taking a lab practical test and then going out to dinner with D34n and R0bb13...

So Dan, we expect you to report back with how it went, okay?

OR

?

Perhaps both.

maps o norway is playing tonight as well...i'll dedicate a pet shot boys cover to u!

I'm waiting with bated breath to hear about Dan's house party gig last night!

I am now on a mad mission to find that photo I told you about in my email. I can't find the album it's in. But I know it's here somewhere!

There's my problem with electronics, right there! Cuz I'm too clueless to figure out fixes.

Dan, I found the picture. It's... uh... contrast-y.

Today's my birfday and I'm in a suprisingly good mood. I think it might just be the coffee though since I'm normally debbie downer about celebratory type things.

I can't wait to see your Christmas cactus!
