there’s a new ikea unboring commercial. 2 people are going to get it on, on the kitchen counter. there is a creamer shaped like a cow on the counter, and the woman knocks it off the counter and it smashes on the floor. the ikea man comes on and says “i bet you feel sorry for that cow. you’re stupid. novelty items can be replaced with better items at ikea” (or something like that). somehow, not as funny as the lamp commercial. you just can’t top the lamp commercial.

some guy tried to pick up my mom at d&k LOL. she said he came up to her and said “Are you miss america?” my mom said, no why? he said “Because you should be.” ROFLMAO. fabulous.

i might get my hair cut today or tomorrow. mom just cut some of my mullet off but now it looks weird, cuz i want the back shorter and i dont trust her to do it. we don’t have one of those cool razor things. i told mom to call nancy, but she’s all like blaaaaah. i might have to call myself tomorrow. hate the fone.

next year, when i get paid vacation days, i’m going to vegas. everyone start saving your money, cuz i don’t want to go by myself. next spring…you got a year to save funds.

so regarding my future, and job and such…at the moment i think i’m going to try to stay in this business for a while. of course this could change if i absolutely hate dealing. but this is an industry that is growing, and is a legitimate career if i want it to be. lots of money to be had here. i just gotta start dealing, learn my games, and put in my time. most of the people i’ve talked to worked a few years dealing before getting promoted. and i looked at some vegas hotel sites, about jobs, and the nice places (aka on the strip) require at least 2 years dealing experience to be hired just as a dealer. i think if i really do end up staying in this business, at some point i’ll have to end up in vegas. and i’m fine with that. i can deal. you just stay in AC all the time 🙂 i’d rather go to vegas than atlantic city *barf*. i think once i start dealing, i’m going to stay on the night shift. i already know everyone on the shift, and i like the people i’d be working with (mostly)…i’m used to it now. you get more practice cuz it’s busier, and i overheard someone saying if you are serious about this, and want to move up on the ladder, you want to be on that shift.

on another, more frightening note…my dad works at the power authority and they found out this week, that there had been a significant threat against the plant a few weeks ago…and they didn’t tell the employees, because they didn’t want people to get worried. i asked what exactly a “significant threat” is, apparently a gasoline tanker truck was going to try to crash into the plant…HOW SCARY IS THAT ug. i hate this. i need to move to a remote island that won’t get attacked, and won’t feel any nuclear fallout. you know why all this is happening right? cuz bush is stupid, and didn’t pay attention in history class. he missed the lecture on how history repeats itself, and the lecture about the cold war, nuclear proliferation, mutual assured destruction, nuclear winter etc…and how the UN is supposed to work…

fishy: he called the terrorists “thugs” I was laughing so hard. I had this mental image of “Yo Iraqi Raps”. oh yeah and the latest DC news tidbit…there is a guy that has been holding DC hostage with a tractor since yesterday. God Bless America.

all this war stuff…i’m very against it, but i think i’m against it for reasons that are different than the peace loving hippies. i have no doubt we would win any war against any “axis of evil” country…pure fire power alone we win. it’s the precident this sets for the future that worries me. this is the end of the UN. to quote REM, this is the end of the world as we know it. nothing is going to be the same after this. dubya is destroying the world. and then there’s the whole biological warfare bit. hey dubya might be single handedly responsible for the destruction of the entire human race!! how exciting! we’ll all get the new killer pnemonia and small pox, and become extinct for future evolution of human-esqe beings to excavate and theorize about our extinction! or even better, there will be a few of us with superhuman immune systems who overcome the diseases, and then we become responsible for continuing the human race, and we’d get to have alot of sex. i got dibs on the hot guy!

but hey, my generation is getting good stories to tell their grandchildren, when before all we had was the challenger explosion, and the first gulf war – 2 things we were too young to really have stories about. 😛
