canal fest never ceases to amaze me. the amount of disgusting people there was overwhelming. but yeah. it always amazes me. when you think it can’t get any worse(better) it does. we saw some fine specimines tonight. including 2 hashbrown guy who wouldn’t let us take his picture last year. haha. so eric, danielle and i spent the evening walking around, and sitting on the bridge. we played the “gum game” once, which was a mighty fine time.
canal fest is also quite depressing. we see the usual NTHS trash walking around. this year included 2 of the more trashy white trash folk from high school – both with brand new babies. ok, the one girl is the rat faced girl who shares my birthday. the other one is this really ugly fat girl, who no matter how much she weighed, she’d always be ugly. both had really young babies. HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN!? WHO FUCKS THAT?! AND HOW DO I NOT HAVE A BOYFRIEND?! lol
but anyway, good time as always. after that we went to dennys on maple but it was closed til 2 am, so we went to IHOP instead. change is good lol.
sara’s amazing ab workout = get bronchitis
ok, since i have no memory i don’t know what my plans are for the next two months. if anyone remembers something i’m supposed to be doing, that isn’t on this list, let me know.
aug 4-6 = toronto for david bowie
aug 25 = tool in hamilton
that’s all i remember lol. i just need to know so i can request off more days if i need to. for some reason i think i was supposed to be doing something else…
i got called for another job from posting my resume online. this time from teletech (or something) who do customer service for verizon. i said no right away to the sales position, but the other position is straight out customer service. working the fones for people who have questions i guess. i told her i’d call back. it’s 9$ an hour, 40 hrs a week. i don’t really want to do that….grrr. hate this job crap. my neighbor down the street apparently got me an application for M&T banks offices, and i’d rather just work in an office than have to deal with customer service on the telephone. i hate the fone lol.
i was looking for cds to buy on half.com. i feel guilty that i haven’t bought untouchables yet, but no one has it cheap enough for me lol. looked for tea party too, but nothing cheap. and i don’t understand how people can charge so much for tool’s Opiate… it’s an EP for gods sake!!! it is not worth 12$!!!!!! it’s not worth 8!!!! 7.99 plus shipping was the lowest on half.com. insane. still no opiate for me.
i downloaded the pre-release of netscape 7. it’s hideous. it looks like i’m on a mac. and when will people realize, macs suck. it still doesn’t read my css right…it’s just awful. i tried it because i hoped that the mail program would be nice. it had what i’m looking for, multiple account setup, but it just looks hideous. so i’ll stick with netscape 4.7 for my email.
and i realized that jeff martin DOES sing different lyrics in heaven coming down than all the typed up lyrics ive found…and it’s the real lyrics, not the ones in the book, that really struck me at the show. i found this really great mp3 of temptation live, but it’s cut off, of course…arg. i found depeche mode live at kroq 1998, and of course, can’t download it. arg.
i told my mom about how my one manager at work reminds me of my cousin warren. she asks me how tall he is, and i was like he’s shorter than me. she’s like, you always like short guys. i was like ?!?!?! where’d that come from. did i say i liked him? no. she’s like, well you could date him. haha. first off he’s got a girlfriend, secondly, he’s like 30 (to which my mom replies, that’s not too old for you…?!?!?), and third, HE REMINDS ME OF MY COUSIN and that’d just be gross. lol. i forgot to mention that there’s this kid at work, who lives in NT also, who reminds me of Ed Norton.
canal fest day 2. i forgot alot of what i was going to say about it now. eric, danielle and i headed over for the parade. i think this year is the first year i’ve sat there through the entire parade. LOL. we were standing behind old people who ended up moving, so we got to sit on the railing of the bridge. we kept giving candy to the girls that were standing behind us. i only wanted the double bubble gum lol. the parade was the usual. of course everything has special meaning after sept 11th, so everytime a military, police, or fire company walked by everyone clapped. someone in the area bought a fire truck that responded to the WTC on sept 11th on ebay for $6,500 so that was in the parade. some fire company made a really nice float of an american flag with black WTC on it, and then had people posing like that famous “Raising the flag at WTC” picture. some politician was giving out mardi gras beads, but when they walked by they didn’t give any to anyone… so i screamed that i was a registered voter…still didn’t get any beads, so someone is not getting my vote.
speaking of politicians tho, i finally got to see the hot county coroner LOL. danielle’s been telling me about him for 4 years now, and i finally saw him. her dad was working at the republican tent today so we went to get free drinks, and the coroner was there. yeah, he’s hot. i was staring at him, and he looked at me then away, then back at me and i was still staring at him, and he looked away then back at me AGAIN and i was STILL staring at him LOL. then the 3 of us were standing with our drinks, and he comes over and just goes “Hi” and walks away LOL. it was great.
we saw more people from high school, people actually worth talking to. found out some gossip (which is the whole point of going to canal fest) and guess who else i saw…psycho ex boyfriend. and he has 2 kids now. a girl and a boy. he’s got long hair, goatee, but looks the same. seeing him made me want to throw up. just purely due to the fact that i dated that piece of shit.
hmm what else. i bought devil horns. hehe they light up. unfortunately, i was secretly hoping to run into a certain someone from work. grrrrr make it stop. lol we didn’t go to the beer tent cuz it was super jam packed. there were 2 marching bands in there playing, and tons of other people. and it’s just not that important to us lol. maybe tomorrow, i work til 6 again. which means i’ll probably leave at 4:30 lol.
