August 2012
I'll start to wonder if this was the thing to do.
Bad space tonight.
Listening to Tegan and Sara and waiting for the overnight staff to get here so I can go home and sleep it off.
Ps. Done with tumblr, I’ve decided.
It’s been a good run, kids.
See you out there.
Only coffee no sugar inside my cup.
Coworker: do me a favor.
Me: what?
Coworker: don't wake me up.
Me: ...
Coworker: up, up, up.
Psalm 18:6
I cried aloud and my help came from the lord.
4 am
Me: I think I am going to start taking tai chi classes.
Coworker: that reminds me. I need to buy white sheets.
Me: ...
Coworker: to tie-dye.
Displaced.
I feel weirdly displaced this week and I’m not loving it.

i don’t know why everyone makes the grim reaper out to be a bad guy i mean he’s just taking to you to the afterlife it’s not like he killed you it’s actually quite nice of him to walk you there imagine if you had to go alone
I laughed for far too long at this
My doctor says I can't participate in sports where...
“Well. There goes your social life.”
Today at work is a day for bracelets, way too much Mario Kart, a little bit of vin diesel movie marathon, and a whole lot of Clueless quotes.
It’s surprising how slowly the days go by when nothing eventful is happening.
In seven hours I will be heading to the bar to ring in Friday the traditional way: with a giant fishbowl of alcohol...
Gems.
Female client: A BUTTERFLY! Can I use your hat to catch it, please?
Enamored male client: Sure!
Enamored male client: ...
Enamored male client: Wait! NO! It might poop in it!
I am a child.
Today I am spending my day off running amuck around the aquarium with one of my very dearest friends and I honestly just couldn’t be more excited.
Pathetic.
Yesterday at work I cried through the Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
The monkeys were being treated badly by Draco Malfoy and it was upsetting for me to witness.
And I was angry when James Franco left Caesar the ape lost alone and confused in the shelter. It was like post-Lassie depression all over again.
Humanity sucks, go monkeys.
Tired.
I’m always tired lately, it seems. Work is wearing me out and running me down.
In spite of it all, I’m learning so much about human nature. Both the good and the bad.
I need to write. It’s strange how much I miss it. I can’t wait until my next day off.
“All the glory when He took our place, but he took my shoulders and he shook my...”
80's movie mood.
I feel like lying in bed all day and watching Lost Boys and Dirty Dancing.
Unfortunately I’m working all day.
Unfortunately for my kids, I mean, since I fully intend on subjecting them to the swoon-inducing dance instructor that is Patrick Swayze.
On that note I’m dying for work to be over ASAP because my brother is coming up for the weekend.
Get ready world.
Pause. Breathe.
I’m taking a day to treat myself.
I slept in for the better part of the morning, and now I’m doing laundry and hitting up the gym.
When that’s done, I’m going to spend the remainder of the evening diving back into my book. It’s been so long since I’ve done editing that I can’t even seem to remember where I left my characters last.
It’s a...

Batman needs to poop, too.
“You’re so loud all the time that you would probably be that person that would start shouting in the movie theater if something even not even exciting and very ordinary happened. Like if Batman went to the bathroom.”
^ My boss, to a client that was shouting incessantly.
Work.
I know I keep blogging about this job, but I have nothing else to blog about these days, it seems.
I had a long talk with a coworker today about why we do this job. We were sitting at the basketball court watching a few of our boys in a game of pickup talking about our motivation.
After all, the pay sucks, the hours are worse, and the kids are generally ungrateful and pissed at you no matter...
