my friend alex is moving away in a couple weeks. he works with me at outback and we're trying to kill the word "jealous" before he leaves.
our nonsense-
him: i just farted. jealous?
me: i was 10 minutes late. jealous?
him: my dad sold the truck today and i had to get a ride to work.
me: oh i'm jealous.
him: thanks for giving me a ride to work.
me: my tags are expired. and don't be jealous i'm rocking 1 tail light!
this is all thanks to snl:
today i learned that all venus razor blades are compatible with all venus razors. thank fucking god! for a while i thought i was going to need a little chart like on the back of ipod accessories. this venus blade is compatible with venus original, vibrance, divine and breeze but NOT embrace or venus disposables. -insert black and white drawing here-
if you don't know how something so incredibly simple could seem so complicated then you don't really know how i work. welcome to the big open space that is my mind. aside from all this confusion, my favorite razor will always be the schick intuition! i love this razor, but not enough to buy it on ebay. i could probably even shave my head with this razor, only to leave behind soft silky smoothness. just add water.
2 double shifts + 2 closing shifts + 2 regular shifts = this is my first day off in 6 days. is it too obvious? i'm cleaning around the house and reading rumors in magazines like madonna and her hub "guy" are having problems, which totally surprises me because he has the perfect name for someone like her. guy. if it was something like josh she would probably make him change it to go with all her accents. poor mizzdonna, he's a keeper but this is not.
i hate arguing. i get this dying feeling in my chest that i imagine people in hospitals get when they're hooked up to machine. in an argument, on the outside i look as numb as can be, serious and reserved. but on the inside i'm feeling dramatic and i want to push your buttons because you hurt my damn feelings and that's what girls do. we get our feelings hurt and we want to know you care.
my friend susan has three snakes. i watched her feed little field mice to them. it was sick. but one of the snakes didn't even eat his. the mouse snuggled up to the snake's face and took a little nap.
this is how i feel. like a angry snake about to eat you and you don't. even. know.
i need some change in my life. every day here is starting to feel like an old routine.
part of this feeling could be due to the fact that up until yesterday i didn't have internet for about 4 months and i still don't have cable. i can't live completely disconnected from the world like that. who does that?
oh wait, people who move into new houses do that.
i feel better already.
it kinda irritates me that while i was without internet someone bought my domain, theblowersdaughter.com. it's a damien rice site now, as it probably should be.
What TV show(s) will you be watching this season? Why?
Nip/Tuck will be/already is my main thing. It's like crack. Can't stop won't stop, eh eh - eh eh. I had never heard of the show until this summer. I managed to watch all 3 previous seasons just in time to enjoy the premier of season 4, which was about a month ago.
All I can say about this show is this: WOW-GASP-OMG-WTF? The combination of blood, dysfunction, sex, and scandal is enough to keep my little heart content on any day and at any time.
Important: Any show that can cause your friend's christian mother to beat the shit out of her daughter for watching it, while screaming "get this porn out of my house," is more than enough to get me to watch.
It's really hard for me to wait a whole week for new episodes. When you watch three whole seasons back to back, and then all of a sudden you can only watch one episode every seven days.... life gets hard.
South of Nowhere is going to be another good one. Season 2 premiers this Friday. It's got lots of drama, cat fights, and weird camera angles that I enjoy.
Last season had racism, girls liking girls, and lots of drama. This season is going to have a little drug abuse, I hear, and I look forward to watching that.
before after
It was pretty much a huge disaster when I started, even worse than the "before" pictures I took a month ago, but after 5 months of living here I figured it was time to unpack already so I did the damn thing.
I love how colorful my room is. The black really brings out my colorful shit. I didn't want to get any black furniture, but i'm going to have to now that I see how everything looks with my little temp. desk.
can't. I give in. I just realized that my car is parked on the lawn at this very moment. I quit. Bring on the pinatas.
I miss having more time for my guitar. I need to learn more, dammit. I'm up to five chords and the beginning of December by Collective Soul. I was going to upload a video of me practicing but then I realized that I like having friends.
Is it wrong that sometimes I get the urge to stay home, away from all people, and just practice? I never do though. It's even harder to find the time to practice now that I have a job again.
What's your middle name? Is there a story or history behind it?
Giselle is my middle name, so that makes me Alexis Giselle. I dig it. The only other Alexis I know has a simular combo: Alexis Michelle. I was gonna say that ish-el must sound pretty good with Alexis, but then I imagined Alexis Trishelle and felt kind of sick.
Life is good. I'm listening to Flying High by Jem and I feel so relaxed, I could just chill on my bed all day. It's a nice break from my normal crunk music, which I don't realize is kinda crass until I catch myself googling things like "lyrics stick it in my mouth" or when old people stare at me on my way to The Villages, where I work. I guess "If you a scared motha fucka go to church" isn't something everyone wants to hear...
NIP/TUCK is back! I haven't watched the season premier yet, but I have it all taped and ready to go. Me and two of my friends aren't really allowed to watch it without each other. LOL. It's not just a show, it's a way of life.
FYI: There is a small flaw in vox's composition page. My last post had random things bolded. I tried a few times to fix it but it got pissed at me and wouldn't even let me backspace at one point. Needless to say the post is gone now. I couldn't even begin to handle that, but can you blame me? Also, I can't fucking tag this post Nip/Tuck because when I do the search for posts marked Nip/Tuck fucks up because of the slash. Nip Tuck without the slash.... ok just stop.
Oh well. I still love you Vox, you little beta baby.
i bought a guitar yesterday on an impulse. i love those, impulses that is. you suddenly need something or you'll just die without it.
i got it from a friend who taught me a couple chords. he says i'll be the next jimmy hendrix, popping pills and playing my guitar all day. uhuh- o yeah.
if you'd like to hear me attempt the chords G, A, and D than go here and download the wav. but before you point and laugh hysterically, i've owned the guitar for 2 days and never played before in my life. i have potential... or i hope.
i've always wanted to play guitar but i was too scared to try. then i did and now i have something to work towards. i used to be into piano but now it's so boring to me. guitar doesn't seem too hard. i just have to train my hands to get to get to the chords faster... as you may have heard.
i got a baby amp, some cute picks, and a tuner. i've been searching online for new chords to learn and such. i'm ridiculously driven sometimes. i think i can do this.
woo! yeah. my vox coloring contest entry got an honorable mention "For the little details" and i'm getting 10 invites out of it. oh yeah, and also glory and fame. people will stop me in public and ask "aren't you that girl that colored in that logo for that one site that kinda seems like the love child of myspace and livejournal, vox?" and i will be like why yes as cd's of AOL free trials fall from the sky and i autograph their foreheads.
... or something.
ahh i hate when family members find stuff like that!added you too :) read more
on i just blogged. jealous?
