Did You Ever Notice I Never Really Cared

Do you ever want to tell someone off, but you were afraid of how they'd take it? I'm going to do it, but no one will know who it is, so no one's feelings can be hurt (unless they have a guilty conscience? Or just one of those personalities that just feel bad.) Like, there's this girl at work, and whenever she gets really frustrated, I'm afraid I'm the cause. Anyway, here goes.


SCREW YOU!!!!!!

And here's a picture that I think is funny. And, for the people that would normally get upset about something like this...please take a grain of salt before you take a look. That is all.

Don't Stop Believin'

I just got back from Lady in the Water. What an incredible film! I know I said this after Village, but it was the best M. Knight Shyamalan yet. It seems that everytime he releases a new movie, it just gets better and better. I just can't get over how good it was, and he was still able to poke fun at himself during the film.
Go see it!

I Don't Want To Go

I hurt one of my Kimme's. I have no idea how I did it. Joya and I were a little/lot giggly after I finally found Smirnoff Triple Black, and the next day Kristin says to me, "What did you do to Kimme?" There's a huge dent in it. I must have hit it with my foot or something, and that hurt her. But I remember no pain in my foot, or huge plastic denting sound. I'm sure I can fix it with a hammer. Anything can be fixed with a hammer!
I hate when people owe me money for so long. Also when they seem to blame one person for one thing that inadvertently becomes their fault for not getting the money. Argh!
Hmm, nothing else going on here. But here's a really funny picture.

Cast Your Cares Away

I'm finally going to work. I haven't gone in 4 days. 2 of those days were my day off, and 2 of those I was sick. I can't figure out what's wrong with me. I still feel pretty lousy, and I don't know if it's because I haven't slept in a week or what. I just don't know what to do. Maybe tonight I'll sleep because I'm not going to be napping till four. Ah, what a wicked cycle.
I've been writing a lot for my show; I'm feeling really good about it actually.
I'm going to be starting a book club with Marissa and Kristin, and I'm looking forward to that. I was pretty bummed when I had to stop going to the Chapters book club due to transit issues, plus it's a chance to socialize. We're starting with Pride and Prejudice, which I've read about 6 years ago, so it'll be nice to reread.
I got an email from an old old friend who I haven't talked to in years yesterday and we actually chatted on msn last night.
If anyone has the song What's Up by 4 Non Blondes, please let me know, I'd like it in my library!

Be Good Be Good Darling

Well, I had quite an interesting blood day, but I'm not going to post about it until I talk to Alida and tell her on the phone. It's funnier in voice/person. Right now I'm waiting for my graham cracker crumb crust cools down so I can put the cream cheese mix on it, and the blueberry pie filling on, and the little bits of crumbs for decoration so I can go to bed!
I'm getting quite frustrated at the scheduling at work, and it appears I'm not the only one. What part of "no Sunday's" does no one get?! And to top it off, it's been changed after I got Sundays off. This does not bode well for me staying there much longer if it doesn't shape up.
I've gotten quite a few 3.5 hour shifts as well - which is ridiculous. Why? Because to get there in time, I must leave the house around 4:00, and I don't get back until after 10. That's six hours, and almost half of it, I'm in transit, or waiting for transit. Plus it's only $29.75. I'm spending $5 on transit so I'm making less than $25 bucks. What's that nowadays? That's not even my phone bill - and I have quite a good deal when it comes to that! Why do they make schedules 3 months in advance when they change it 17 times anyway? It seems that the people writing it, write it for their own convenience and damn the other people. Well I say damn the man, save the Empire.
In other news, Joya is getting married in September. Yes, that's right, in a little over a month. Crazy no? And I've never had a boyfriend. Hmm, maybe I should stop making comparisons like that. It's depressing. But only for awhile. I don't get boy crazy so no one should worry about this, neither do I need the "Kim, you'll find someone". I know I will - if I have to kidnap him to do it!
Alright, I should check on my crust...I'm beginning to go crazy. "Beginning" you say?

In the Midnight Hour

I'm excited. I've finally figured out what my play this year is about, and I've actually started writing some dialogue down! I've even referenced Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I don't know where my mind gets these things.
For the longest time I've been feeling really unproductive about this summer because I knew that I wanted to get a big chunk of this play started because I knew I wouldn't have a lot of time in 4 months to get it down pat the way I want it. I do have plans to publish this! But now that it's started, the idea is concrete, I feel like a weight has been lifted and I can start doing what I like best. Forming characters. I one time started writing a story and I developed two guys characters and I fell in like with them. It's probably because I wrote exactly how I want "my perfect guy" (hehe Kristin, that was for you!) It's fun to create personalities. You can put little pieces of yourself in, or put things that you wish you had. Ahh, the times. Well, I'm thirsty and hyper because of my creative juices flowing through me and I can barely contain my fingers on the keyboard, so I must be away.
I know I promised pictures, but they haven't been uploaded yet...but they will.
EDIT: I have started a blog chronicling my writing journey. Please stop by for updates!

You Who Wish to Conquer Pain

I don't understand why people would use power tools at 10:30 at night! And in an apartment complex. Some people are just odd.
I need to wake up early for the parade tomorrow. Plus it's the last day with my parents. Hmm, I don't know how I feel about that. I haven't had to pull out my wallet to pay for anything at all this week. The only reason I bring my wallet in restaurants is to show my id just in case I get carded. I really appreciate that. Mom also bought me some outfits (for my birthday), but I needed clothes. Now I can throw some other stuff out.
I think in the next few posts I'll put up some of the pictures of all the places I went this week.
Oh, and today I went to the Museum of Regiments. Yeah, I found it ironic considering how I feel about wars lately.
Well, this is such a non-post, but whatever. Tomorrow: waking up at 5:30ish so I can have a shower and get going to my bus. Ugh.
What's funny? Explaining to my parents the niches of public transit.

You Don't Believe We're On the Eve of Destruction

Day 2 of Parents in Calgary is coming to a close. The bad news is that they're leaving early Saturday morning, and not Sunday morning, which is what I thought. I'm kind of sad, but I guess it can't be changed.
Yesterday mom and dad got me some groceries, and stuff at Home Depot, then a bunch of us (Kristin, Joya, Scott, Kyle, my folks and myself) went to Moxies, then Scott came over and Kristin, Scott, and myself played Scene It? which I totally won.
Today, Kristin, mom, dad and I went to Morraine Lake and Montana's. We hiked to the waterfall and Kristin and I grabbed some glacier water - it was ok - not spectacular and not bad, but it was nice and cold. At Montana's, a waiter delivered my dad's drink and I recognized the voice so I looked up and it was Karmin. It's so wierd to just randomly see people that I know. I guess I've been here long enough and know enough people that it's bound to happen every now and then.
Tomorrow we're going to Drumheller and the Royal Tyrell Museum. Kristin may or may not join us, and then mom, dad, Joya and I are hitting the driving range. Perhaps I'll get better.
Wednesday we're going to Heritage Village, and to my store to get me some sneakers, and to other clothing stores where I can update my wardrobe. Who knows, maybe I'll even throw some things out.
Well, I think I'm going to try to find some protest songs to download. I heard The Eve of Destruction today and now I'm jonesing for some more.
