Oct. 20th, 2008 @ 06:47 pm An Ode to Kool-Aid
Current Location: My House
And Now I'm Feeling Like This: Exasperated
Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Cascada
       As I sit here and sip my lemon-lime/ berry cherry kool-aid, I can't help but think of the past week. It's been one of those where there hasn't been a moment that passed that I didn't wish I was back in bed. But if ever I tried to take a nap, my mind was so full I just had to get up and do something. It's the kind of week where I cry silently every couple days, and scream into the mattress with my fists clenched at least a couple times. Just one of those weeks ya gotta get through somehow in hopes that the next one will be better.
       Last Sunday I let Jadyn and Raiden out in the yard to potty. I came back inside and cleaned up their crates and fed Brodi, and when I went back to get them not ten minutes later Raiden was completely covered with little bumps, his eyelid was bleeding, and his face was flushed. I brought them back in and kept an eye on him to see what was going on. About fifteen minutes after that, his face swelled up like a balloon, so bad that he had to squint through his eyelid just to see. He had been attacked by fire ants. Swarmed, more like it. I tried to guess how many bumps I saw on him, and I know it was at least one hundred. There were fifteen on the top of his head alone. He had them all over his back, down his sides, on his belly, all over his feet, and even around his mouth. I called an emergency vet to see if he needed more help than the benedryl I had given him. They said with that many stings he needed steroids and to bring him in at once.
       When I got there they said he looked like he had demodectic mange, a non-contagious skin parasite. They told me there are two types of manges. One is from lack of care and is highly contagious. The other is from a genetic malady of the immune system which leaves it susceptible to parasites which cause redness and hair loss. They said they think he had this on his feet. They also said that if he had this, the steroids they were planning on giving him for the ant bites would complicate the mange and make it horribly worse. So they sent me away with a bill and some advice... keep giving him benedryl. Something they could have told me over the phone. Of course...
       Tuesday was another stressful day. At about 9 pm, Joe received a call that his cousin, who was one of his best friends and a new friend of mine, was dead. We sped to his house to find out that his son had shot him in the face, and that he had told cops it was an accident. Long story short, it's very obvious it wasn't an accident. He stole a lot of his dad's stuff  in the next couple days after he conveniently "couldn't find the key." And took the luxury of taking his dad's car and claiming it for his own. The man's ex-wife (and the murderer's mother) would not move from the front of the casket at the viewing, and nearly started a fight about it. At the memorial service, the boy fell asleep, and then at the funeral, before his own father that he killed was put into his grave, he started telling his friends about a party he was having at his house. His dad's house. The one laying beside him that he shot and killed. Oh, and to top it all off, after the cops released him the night he shot his father in the face (when his father was just sitting on the couch), instead of going to check on his step-mom who watched him shoot her husband, he went to a local pub. She was in the hospital from shock and her blood sugar started spiking in both directions back and forth. But no... I guess he figured he'd chalk up another underage drinking excursion. The whole thing makes me so fucking mad. To know he's free when I can't do anything about it... gah. I keep hearing the investigation's not over, but it's so obvious...
       Then there's work. I swear all but a few people there are idiots. I've had it with that place. I really have. I won't really go into that right now. But on the flip side, we have a new kitten.  He's a 2 1/2 month old black bobtail with yellow eyes. Joe's friend's (the one who got shot) brother had some cats. One of them had kittens, several of which were bobtail. His friend got one and named him Reznor, after Trent Reznor, lead singer of Nine Inch Nails. The brother told Joe if he could catch the other one, he could have him. He caught him and it had plenty of scratches and bites to spare. I decided on Trent as his name, in honor of Joe's friend. The psychotic complement to his sweet kitten. Well, I think I'm gonna get off here for a while. Gotta go finish painting the bedroom.

Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Snuff by Slipknot
Today's been ok thus far. My body woke up after five hours of sleep, I went and filled out an application at a vet clinic, came back and smelled smoke from my engine again, came inside and got under appreciated some... so all in all, an average day  so far i suppose. I'm feeding the four furry doorbells as of right now who eat a combination of oh about 30 cups of food a day. And that's when the twins don't eat their normal 10 cups a piece. Two large bags of dog food last me about a week and a half. But I guess it's the price ya pay. That and all the damn poop. Any who... I guess I gotta go. Raiden and Jadyn are doing the pee pee dance. And lord knows he's not smart enough to understand, "Just a second."

Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Psychosocial by Slipknot
And I'm back! Wow it's been a long time. Live journal brings up some not so great memories for me, but I decided to get the hell over it and return to my writing roots. It's my damn journal so oh well. I'm quite a different person from who I was back in the day. I suppose that's a very good thing. No more suicidal me or depressed me. (Except when I find the dogs pooed in the floor or there's no more alcohol in the fridge.) I'm now working at Petsmart of all places. Been there for a year and a half at that. Worked at Bi-lo for a year and a half before that. And looking for a better job now. I no longer live with my mom. I moved to an apartment with a coworker early last year. I went to a party that July 4th and met a man named Joseph that I fell in love with. I moved in with him about 3 months later.
      We've been together for one year and two months now. It's been, by no means, without trials and tribulations. But if you ask me, any "perfect" relationship, or one which seems perfect at least, is doomed to fail. There will be disagreements. There will be arguments. There will be all-out WWF shit. But the whole point is to go through that and find a way to make those things make you closer. Make-up sex is nice too... Anyways, about a month ago a little jewelry box got pulled out of a pocket. Since then it's been a whirlwind of emotions. We recently moved to a nice 2 story house we're renting. Still looking for something to buy, but who isn't these days? Oh, and there's no date set yet for the wedding. No hurry, in my opinion.
      I still have Brodi, my Shetland Sheepdog, named after SSX Tricky hippie, peace-lovin' Brodi. Last Christmas, Joe, my fiance, bought me two pit bull puppies aptly named Jadyn and Raiden. Yes, those are Mortal Kombat names. They're the biggest handful of all time. Namely... their excrement. I swear those little buggers poo and pee more than an entire football team. They're 9 1/2 months old now and sweet as pie for the most part. We also have Joe's 2 1/2 yr old pit bull, Joubu. I can never spell it correctly but it's pronounced jo-boo. Means strength in Japanese I believe. And then there's Azriel, our 4 month old kitten who's BFF with all the dogs for whatever reason. Lastly, our rabbit Jager (Yay-ger... after the licorice alcohol), my rat Nanaki (FFVII fans rejoice), and our betas Vincent and Ryuk.
     Any who, I've got to mosey on to work for now. I hope to be on here much more often and post random things of my life. Hope everyone is doing well!

And Now I'm Feeling Like This: apathetic
Well it's been an interesting past couple of days. My computer STILL doesn't work even after my bro got the smartest computer whiz he knows to look at it. I mean... this guy graduated with a major in computer science. So they came to the conclusion that it was probably my motherboard... the one I just spent a week waiting for to get here in the mail. So he ordered another one and it'll probably here next weekend. After that happened Saturday mornin, I was getting ready to call Sarah and get ready to hang, which I had been planning to do for a week, when my mom, who knew about my plan the whole week, says, "Well, I wanted to go shopping with you today and then get an Xmas tree." I explained that I was getting ready to go hang with Sarah and she told me to call her and reschedule for Sunday. So I called and asked and then felt like a jerk cause I didn't know that she goes to her grandma's every Sunday. So that plan got shot in the foot. Well me and my family ended up going all over the place shopping. Then sunday I had a rather unproductive day. Went to get an application from somewhere but they were closed. Went to talk to a manager at another place, but she wasn't there. Then what I wanted at walmart hadn't come in yet. So then my mom came to walmart and met us and we all went out to eat.

Today was weird... I found out that in Anatomy tomorrow that we're going to have a class debate about cloning. Supporters and those against it took sides today. And it's obvious which side is larger. There's about seven for it, and over twenty against it. One of the ones against it is this girl who's like... proclaiming scripture against it. And some people on the pro side don't believe in god. So tomorrow's probably going to be WWIII. Oh yeah... I'm on the pro side. It's rather funny though. Pretty much everyone is against cloning an adult, but our side is for partial cloning. Like only a certain organ. (which can be done) Well, after we split into groups and got ready for the big debate, class ended. Then stuff wasn't too interesting til after lunch. Turns out some of the goths got in a fight with a redneck. The redneck was being a bastard and kept saying, "Hit me! If you're gonna hit me, then hit me! Go ahead!!" ...so one of them did. And I think the redneck guy probably regretted it. This guy came up behind him and suckerpunched him in his temple, and he went down. When he fell, he looked up with this dazed look on his face and people found out he had lost his short term memory. When he was down a bunch of people jumped on him and started pounding on him. They were pulled apart and an ambulance came and took him to the hospital. Then, on the way home, right down the road from our school (no more than a quarter of a mile or less) these cars had run off the road and crashed. It was such a nice destructive day...

Well that's about it. Comp still not fixed, still don't have a job, and kid from school is in the hospital with no memory. Aaah... happy times.

And Now I'm Feeling Like This: busy
Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Whatever's playing on the Planet right now
I haven't made a post of the events of my life in quite a while, so to start out with, I just wanna say this. I'm going to actually start using my livejournal as a journal, and just say what's happened and use it as a record of events. Not a bitching fest, mind you, just so I can read what's been going on in my own life. It'll be more for myself than anyone else, but I figure if anyone cares to see what's happened to me lately, then... hell, here it all is.

If, however, you don't care to see what's up in my life... then take me off your friends' list!! I've gotten to the point where I don't give a crap if people read what I write and what they think of it. Partly because I strive not to complain anymore, and haven't whined about crap on here for several months, and partly cause I'm incredibly sick of all the hypocrisy, name-calling, and whining going on. I don't need to strive to remain friends with people who only think of themselves, and I also can't afford to spend my money on gas to go see them only to be disappointed. I could do that with people at my school for far cheaper. Well, that being said... here's what happened over the past couple days.

Sorry this is so long. If ya don't wanna read it, then don't. I won't be offended.

Last Friday was an awesome day. I thought it was gonna suck cause I had two class notebooks to have completed and organized in my first and second period classes, and I also had major chapter tests in the same two classes! But I managed to fully complete both notebooks, and study for the tests. I think I did ok on them. Report cards come out soon, but I don't think I did too hot in anatomy, and I'm kinda worried bout it. Pre-cal... well... I've tried my best in it. What can I say? But I'm not worried at all about Latin and English. I had the weirdest dream tho... I dreamed I got my report card and had under 68 in all my classes! Freaked me out when I woke up cause I thought it really happened and was thusly quite confused!

(Jumping to today for a bit) I applied to muy places and have to go talk to the managers at Ryan's in bout half an hour or so. But afore I do that I gotta work on some laundry and get stuffs ready to cook supper when I get back. So I'll have to finish updating this doo-hickey then. Peace out.

*time passes*

And I'm back from Ryan's. That was muy cool. I went there, and the manager dude came out, and told me to wait a moment while he got a paper. While I was standing there the cashier chick who seemed in her later twenties or so came over and started talking to me, telling me not to be a waitress during the week cause you take home maybe 30 bucks a day, then a guy came over who was being a waiter that day said that he took home like 24 dollars a couple days ago or so, and they were tellin me the ins and the outs of it when the manager came back and they just kinda stood there all quiet and smiled. The manager looked at them like, hey, don't even try to poison her mind!!! It was funneh. The manager dude was really nice and took me to a back dining area where there weren't too many people and we went over my application that I turned in a couple hours ago. Then he went and got a background check form and had me fill it out, and said me being hired would be based on how that came back. Well, since I haven't killed TOO many people, I'm quite happy about the whole situation. I haven't filled out and turned in the other like... six applications I also got this morning. I'm gonna wait til Saturday cause I have to call the Ryan's manager back on Friday like he told me to and see what's up with that. Well, it seems like it'll be a pretty cool place to work, so I'm excited cause it's not far from home... like less than 15 minutes or so.

Ok, back to Friday. (Sorry I'm jumping round so much timewise.) Well, after the first couple classes, pre-cal was boring as always, but I got to talk to a guy who told me about some cool concerts coming up like Audioslave, NIN, and Rolling Stones. Very cool stuff. Then in English, the teach moved the desks around, so now I sit in front of Andrew which is muy awesome. And our whole little group is still together in the back right of the classroom by the window, only we face a different wall now heh heh. We all just talked and hung out all class.

After school, one of my life goals was finally accomplished. We had a blood drive and that big Blood Connection bus was parked in the student parking lot. I gave a pint of blood! Woop woop! So did Andrew. We ended up spending like an hour after school just hangin out and talking and stuff cause he was supposed to give blood during the 15 minute interval after me. He ended up just going with me when I went, so that was cool. Then we walked back to the school after and his ride was there, so he left. It was muy fun. The inside of my elbow started bruising just a bit over the weekend, but I didn't mind at all. It was an awesome experience. Andrew told me that one of his life's goals is to give 12 gallons of blood, which, since he started at 17, is perfectly feasable. I think I wanna give 10 gallons in my lifetime. Every four months for ten years... boom! 10 gallons. It was a lot of fun being able to hang out with a guy that's incredibly smart. (He's one of the smartest guys I know at that school... he was in my accounting class last year, he's been in ROTC all four years of high school and recieved more awards than pretty much everyone else, and he's in Latin 4)

After a good day Friday, the rest of the weekend has been rather relaxing. We bought a ton of new movies and have been watching them a bunch. Last night we watched Young Frankenstein (classic Mel Brooks) and The Grudge, and then I watched Team America quite late in the night. Methinks we're gonna watch a bunch today too. Since it was a teacher workday, I was able to sleep in and still get a ton done today, so I'm glad about that.

Well, that's the short version of my weekend so far. (yes... short version) Again, sorry all this was so long. Anywho, if anyone wants to talk to me, ya can call my cell and say hey or whatever. Talk to my peeps later. Peace out... again.

And Now I'm Feeling Like This: sad
Well, my mom and bro are getting ready to take away Shadow and Rayne... yes, when I finally picked a name for her they decide that it's enough and to take her to the pound. I have to get Brodi's crate ready cause that's what they're taking them in. I'm incredibly sad about it, cause it finally hit me that I'm losing my babies for good... just like what happened with Porkchop, my first wonderfully fun and sweet yet incredibly unintelligent dog.

And of course my family is completely uninterested in my feelings about the situation. They left the cats out there in the cage (mind you, they've never been in a cage before) and are going to leave them there for almost an hour while they go and get my brother's truck, then they're going to put them in the back and let them slide around until they get to the pound, where since they're strays and the kitten's terrified of everyone but me, they'll probably both be put to sleep. And instead of trying to understand how I feel about it, my mom gave me chores to do while they're gone, and while my little ones are sitting on the deck in a box.

Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Remedy by Seether
Well... it's official. My school now has id cards. We gotta wear em all the time and I scared the shit outta myself in first period. For the first offense of not wearing them, it's an automatic detention. Second is another detention, third is ISS, and fourth is OSS. They're serious about these little buggers. Well, I hung it up on a nail in my room yesterday and forgot to grab it on the way out. So here I am feeling nakey sitting in my class cause I'm trying to keep anyone from seein I ain't got it. I made it thru that class only to find out in second that it had been in my bag! I felt like a goober. Those of you that know me well also probably know my opinion on getting my picture taken. (Btw, Sarah, sorry for flinging you into Val's cousin (well, not really for that part) and into her bookcase thing in the hall (more for that part)...) So it was killer trying to talk myself into getting my pic taken for my id. Dude, I have so much homework tonight... I have over 20 questions to do from my anatomy book, a 6 pg (front and back) hand out to do from anatomy, study for the second part of my Latin test (We had the first part which was vocab today... we had just a paper with over 60 latin words on it and we had to write what it meant and it included words from the beginning of the year to now) which is the application of Latin grammar rules and such, have to finish some questions out of my Latin book, got a bunch of pre-cal problems to do from the book, have to read a three page handout he gave us in english, and have to study and memorize four more lines (already learned the first four for today) of an old-english poem... complete with old style spelling and pronunciation. ::sighs:: Not to mention I have more stuff from anatomy to catch up on. Homecoming is Friday... doubt I'll go since I don't really have anyone to go with. Still haven't gotten my license. Have to get parallel parking practice still. Had a fight with my mom and bro that ended with me in tears... and for those of you who know me, you know I don't cry unless it's something big. Huge, even. They teamed up on me again about a certain topic just like they always do. Then acted like everything was ok. Again, like they always do. So I came in here just wanting to talk to someone, but found no one was on... of course. Mom says we have to get rid of my cat and my kitten. Shadow attacked my shoe yesterday and my mom doesn't want an attack cat on our deck, and we can't keep the kitten cause it would starve out there alone, and we can't bring it inside cause my mom's allergic to em. I'm so sleepy right now... Haven't seen all you guys since a couple weeks ago, and that wasn't on very rejoicing terms. Before that the last time I saw any of you was Sarah's party. Wow... now that was forever ago. Well, I know this was a long post... sorry bout that. Hope you guys are having good lives out there.

Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: M1 A1 by Gorillaz
Well yesterday was... interesting to say the least. It started out like any other Saturday I've ever experienced on this planet: I woke up and my mom instantly started making both me and my bro clean stuff. After that I found out that we're getting the following sometime in the semi-recent future: new gutters, a new dishwasher, a new stove, new deck furniture, a new a/c system, new flooring in the kitchen, and new carpet in the whole house. So I was happy bout that. Then I just kinda sat around for a while, then last night we went to Walmart and Gamestop and such places. I finally got the Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust DVD at Gamestop!! ::dances about joyously:: I also finally got the Team America DVD! Wooties! Then at Walmart, while I was in an unmentionables section... these two random guys came up to me and asked me if i wanted to go to a party... (??????) They said it was an end of the summer type thing and they had a bonfire and stuff goin. They were just lookin for people to go to it. I didn't know them, so I was kinda like, "Uuuuuh..." They were both about my height or a little taller. One of them looked like he was in his twenties and was really chunky. The other looked like he was in his thirties and had started to go grey up top. They kept staring at me, and not at my face either, and they were standing way up in my personal space too. I must admit even I was nervous. My Freak-Attractor skill worked overtime and brought me two rather than the usual one. I was kinda like, "Nah, I don't think so." And they said ok, thanks and left. What was even weirder was the section of Walmart I had been standing in... made me extremely uncomfortable. I walked away quickly to say the least... Oh, but I just got a lead on a possible job at Petsmart... ::dances:: God, that would be awesome... considering I'm planning on being a veterinary assistant anyways. Well, methinks I'm gonna finish my Latin and Anatomy homework, then watch my D movie then... who knows? Maybe an orgy with my imaginary friends... Or not... But anywho... I must be off to finish worksheets about cellular division and mitosis, and some Latin paper about a guy named Sextus and his friend named Marcus and Marcus's sister named Cornelia and their dad Gaius Cornelius who's also a Roman senator (whoda thunk it?) and his wife Aurelia... yeah buddy. Interesting stuff. Oh oh!!! Sextus climbed a tree!!!! The plot thickens!!! ::intense scary dramatic music plays in the background:: *BUM BUM BUM BUUUUMM.....* Now that I'm sure you all want to kill me cause I made you sit here and read all this stuff... I'm off!


**Update**
Tonight, I drove (YES... ME... DRIVING... AT NIGHT... AND I DID GOOD... WOOTIES!!) out to Target and stuffins, and I bought a wonderfully awesome shirt with an old school Nintendo system and it says "CLASSICALLY TRAINED"... mucho greatness. While I was there this guy was like, checking me out... he looked at my face then all the way down. Ok, I'm extremely confused by this... I'm not pretty... not cute. Not nothin and I know it. So why are all these creeps staring at me! I swear... this Freak-Attractor skill is getting quite annoying. I get made fun of at school but when I got out I get invited to parties by strange guys and get checked out by other weird people... Oh, and while at Target... I bought dog shampoo. Then I drove home and didn't wreck! ::dances:: Well... that's about it for the update.

-Peace out brethren... and sistren too.

And Now I'm Feeling Like This: contemplative
Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: Bleed - Puddle of Mudd
Remarkable! I feel as though I've just received a revelation from the God of Nature... I was meandering about up at the park, and saw a trail I had never spotted before that led back into the woods behind the playground where I always sit and ponder for hours. I proceeded to follow the trail into the foresty doom, and found that it led to an even larger trail... a four-wheeler track of sorts. It led both left and right, so I followed the leftward path knowing the general area that it would most likely lead me to, leaving the right path for another time. The state of affairs reminded all too well of Robert Frost's The Road Not Taken. As I wandered along, I observed insects I had never before encountered, flowers that were far too unfamiliar to my mind, and I felt peace and uneasiness which were both quite overwhelming. I came across no other humans, which was utterly relaxing. However, I saw no other beings, which was rather alarming. I followed the main path, quite curious as to where I would emerge from the wooded realm. As I traveled unaccompanied, I saw the remnants of human contact with the earth. Trampled branches and underbrush where creatures, both human and otherwise, had once destroyed life, tire tracks from long ago lay heavily planted in the soil beneath my feet, even a few homes were scattered abroad near the currently-deserted path. After I had walked for twenty minutes or so, I emerged from the wooded path to find that I was right across the paved road from my home. To have lived in this residence for seven years and just now find something so amazing... so astounding... Even now I sit, pondering what I may find on the many avenues I did not travel, unable to face any other alternative but to travel back to the distant land so close to my home, and continue my explorations in search of new adventures...

Hooray! My brother from TN is comin today to spend the weekend with us. He's comin here and his wife is goin to see her family. My bro's awesome... he's an indie director, producer, camera-man, and a kick-ass photographer. He's like... ok, pretty much everything I wanted to be in life. He's been to L.A., New York several times I believe (I've been too, but it just looks cooler when in the list), Paris, Alaska... and who knows where else. So yeah... I'm pumped about it. I haven't seen him in months, and the last time I talked to him was bout a month or two ago. Well, I'm off for now. Gotta get cleaning and shit. Peace out.

Den of Solitude's Current Melodies: ABC by The Jackson 5... oh yeah... goin old skool
Well, I went to the orientation thing at my school today. It was pretty much just a big line... kinda like a buffet for crap you don't wanna deal with. You paid any debts you had from previous years, you get your schedule, a locker combo, your parking permit, pay fees for the current year, get your books and junk... Fun stuff like that. I'm gonna have one helluva busy year this year... Taking four classes per semester, having a job (still workin on that part), and trying to scrape up any sort of a social life from the bottom of the society barrel. Most seniors at my school take two or three classes per semester and get out at about 2 or earlier. My Anatomy/Physiology book ain't all that big, but I got a big-ass Pre-Cal book and a phenomenally-large-assed Lit book. Then there's my scrawny little Latin I book... Classes start next Monday... woop-di-doo. Oh, I got some drivin practice in today... I drove around in TR and then around downtown some... got the tag for mi car and paid the taxes and junk for it. Yip yip Maccapo!!! Now all I need's a license... which from my driving today ain't too far off. I did a lot better than I thought I'd do. Didn't kill anyone or run over anything or nuthin! Woop Woop!! ::dances:: I think I did piss off a guy in a blue car tho... he was followin so close he was goin like... through the trunk and up my ass! He'd only back off when I went faster than ten over the limit... I mean... uuuh... not that I would do that or nuthin.... ::whistles:: Oh screw it... ok, yeah I went 70 in a 40! It was fun too... it was one of those backhills curvy roads. WOOT! I didn't freak my mom out too much... I mean, I haven't driven in about 6 months or so. But ah well... I'll stop borin ya with my life. I'm quite hyper right now... and rather out of it at the same time. Hmm... Methinks I'm gonna walk down to the park... WOOT FOR PARKS!!! And I'm off! ::dies::
