I had the strangest cab driver today.
"Are you married?"
"No...I'm sixteen."
"Oh, okay, you still have two years then."

Yesterday I got 6+ inches of my hair cut off on a whim. I <3 it. I never thought I'd have the balls to do it. Pics later.

post a comment with a memory of me.
it can be anything you want.
then post this in your journal.
see what people remember about you.
DO ITTTTT.
Filled out an application at Barnes & Noble tonight (put in a good word for me Zatch!). Hope I get it but for some reason I don't think I will.
Bad news for CeCe: Roman's application at my apt building didn't get approved, so he won't be moving in next door to me and we can't have sleepover parties or do that phone thing with the cans and the string. I'm bummed. And he is essentially homeless. He's staying with his friend Dinu now but for a few days he was sleeping in a car. As he explains, though, "Don't worry for me, when I first come here I sleep at Union Station."
Even more bad news for CeCe: Ayman doesn't have the money for a down payment on a house, and without a down payment the interest on the mortgage goes way up and he wouldn't be able to afford it, so it looks like I'm stuck here indefinitely. I am so ready to get out of this fucking disgusting apartment and my overbearing mother. Fuck being sixteen. I'm so sick of being handicapped by my age. Can't get my own place. Can't get a credit card. Can't work past a certain time or above a certain number of hours. Can't go to clubs with everyone after work. Can't legally drink. Can't vote. Can't get a car on my own. Can't work at Borders, or most places that I really really want to work. Can't can't can't. "One big world full of no."

There is a God and he loves me because just when I decided that if I thought about bullshit any longer I would spontaneously combust, Roman called. So I am going to Pradeep's and Dhiraj's with him in a bit. Haven't been there in a while. Dhiraj said that they got a new fish and named it CeCe 2. CeCe 1 died the day after she was christened, poor dear. Dhiraj insists she killed herself after she found out she was named after me. He's just bitter because he looks retardculous, he caught some of his hair on fire in a tragic accident lighting a cigarette on the stove, and so now it sticks straight up like Alfalfa of Little Rascals fame.
Sean is visiting from Pennsylvania. Eggcellent. Maybe that means Chris will come with him...he is really hot even though he's a dirty rotten Red Sox supporting turd eater.

Bush reminds me of my cockatiel, like how when I say something he tilts his little head to the side and blinks like he's trying to understand me. Only it's cute when Dudley does it, it's frightening in a president.
OMG GEORGE STOP BLINKING HONEY!!!
I'm fading fast...my wide-eyed optimism is dying with the leaves.

Incubus, how I love thee. Brandon Boyd, how I want to get in thy pants.
What a great night man.
The Good:
+The electricity of a fucking awesome band and thousands of their fans
+Ben Kweller...awwww he looks like a hobbit. Only he has better hair. I liked him much more than I thought I would.
+Brandon Boyd. My dear sweet Jesus Christ on a cross, he is one fine piece of work all right.
+I don't know, I just thought Brandon Boyd deserved to be mentioned again, because he's so talented and beautiful.
+Instrumentals man...one of the drum solos sounded so cool, it was like salsa
+Brandon with his drum
+Hearing some of my very favourite songs live (Stellar [the best song of the night, I think], Here In My Room, Southern Girl, Nice to Know You, Made For TV Movie) and screaming them as loud as I possibly could with no regard for being on key
+The ethereal quality of some of the song intros
+Dude they fucking rock mmk.
The Bad:
-No 11am or Agoraphobia (but they played Pistola and Priceless, which are the only two songs on A Crow Left of the Murder I can find any fault with) :'(
-Brandon Boyd did not find time in his performance for a nice strip show. He unzipped his jacket, and for a while that was looking promising, but alas, nothing more came of it.
The Ugly:
IT WAS 5 DEGREES OUTSIDE. Actually not really. But I needed something to put in this category, you see. It was a little cold, but I warmed up with my screeching and jumping around. Plus Brandon was hot enough for us all. Like fire. Tssss.
I need to see them live again.

Today was wonderful because Ayman (my friend at work) said he is buying a house within the next few months, and he offered to let me rent a room. !!!!!!!!!!!!! And he wants to get two dogs. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Elena P might move in there too. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm really, really excited but am trying not to get my hopes up too much. He's talking to the loan people next week, he's already been talking to a realtor and is looking at a few places in Alexandria (by Landmark mall) and Springfield (near Springfield Mall). I am so ready to get out of this place. Oyyy this would be so fucking cool. *crosses fingers, toes and boobs*

My kitty Gabby (no relation to Gopples) has a blood clot in his ear and he's having surgery tonight. :(:(:( Poor Baby. I hope he's okay. The blood clot looked like a big lump the size of a strawberry. I'm scurred for him. Dear Yahweh, please watch over my fat old kitty cat, I've grown rather fond of him in the past ten years. Love Cecil.

MAN I love Johnny Edwards. I want him for my husband vice president vice presiband. Isn't he lovely? I will look like a massive tool for the next four years if he is elected, because I will completely ignore his policies and only talk about how cute/smart/eloquent he is. *swoon*
When did my taste in men turn into that of a middle aged woman?
Dick Cheney reminds me of Ebenezer Scrooge. Or like remember that game...I think it was called Guess Who? Well one of the people on the cards looks exactly like him. Only the guy on the card probably wasn't evil.
I don't like the lady moderating this debate.
Oh Johnny Johnny Johnny boy...

That was one mighty boring presidential debate. No fist fights, no mud wrestling, nothin'. Kerry has the charisma of a box of rocks, and Bush is just an all-around douche. John Edwards is sexy for a politician, though. I'll take my jollies where I can get them.
Goppy and I made a presidential debate drinking game, so the evening wasn't a total waste.

I miss my Gopples terribly. ;__________;

Don't know what brought this on.
I should get back to painting my ceiling. But I don't wannaaaaa. I keep falling off of the damn chair.
I'm so boring. I always talk about the same things. Not in here, but just in general. I'm so one-dimensional.
On a much happier note: I am getting a car within the next month (getting permit on Saturday). I don't know what kind yet. I have only three requirements: fairly cheap, red, and with a CD player so I can turn hip hop up full blast and the whole world can hear the bass. I'm not asking too much, right? Her name will be Stella, because she's how I'm getting my groove back (or getting my groove to begin with, because I never really had a groove in the first place). Also it sounds like stellar, and means star, and yeah. The name of a car is not important at all, I'm just superstitious and nerdy. I found a Pontiac Sunfire on carmax.com, it's at the Carmax near Dulles.
It hadn't even entered my conciousness to want a car because I considered it so out of the question, but apparently it has been decided for me. According to my muzzer and granddaddy I need a car. Shit yo, I'm not gonna argue.
Taking GED test November 19th. The classes are quite boring but it beats the hell out of high school. At Nova I want to take Art History, Drawing, Russian, Sign Language 2, Arabic, Psychology, Sociology, Voice, Film, and Philosophy. Mama says I shouldn't do that all in one semester, but the prospect of being able to take classes that actually interest me is too exciting for me to pace myself too much.
Life is good.
But...*sings* I really feeeeeel like I'm losin' my best friend...

So now I've heard from both Goppy and Sandre that there are NEW Tamagotchis out, and god dammit I want one. I pimped those back in the day, I had at least 10. I always let them die after about a day, but even so, I loved them. AND I WANT A NEW ONE! I went to Target today but they didn't have them there so I am sad a little. But it's okay because I'm going to kick everyone's ass at blackjack tonight and that always makes me feel better.
I'm taking the GED preliminary test on Tuesday, the one where they make sure you're not a completely illiterate prat. I'm glad the process has actually started now, it felt like it was taking forever. The lady on the phone said I could be finished in as little as six weeks. That blows my mind. In six weeks I could be elligible to go to college. And in a little less than a year I shall hopefully be in my own place...that would be amazing.
I need to start saving money though. Shit. I can do it. I think I can I think I can I think I can...

I never thought this day would come...I have a...a...a...NEW CELL PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Same number and all. But man. This is the most excited I think I've ever been about anything, ever. It's so beautiful. I just want to hold it and stroke it and love it forever and ever. Until next year when I'll be sick of it. But until then...*contented sigh*

Today:
The Good
-I went in Roman's room this morning to ask where he keeps the toilet paper (there is never any in his bathroom) and he was fast asleep on his bed wearing the tiniest little pair of underpants I've seen on a boy. Cutest thing ever.
-Went to Best Buy and Borders and got The Passion of the Christ, South Park season 3, The 9/11 Commission Report, a book about Jack the Ripper, Great Paintings of the Western World, and a book of Frida Kahlo's paintings
The Bad
-Found out the school is being a bitch and making me come in tomorrow for a bit to talk to Guidance Counselor With Large Ass and Annoying Personality, they might make me go back to classes until I take the GED preliminary test (next Monday or Tuesday)
The Ugly
-Also at Roman's house, I was asleeping in the big room that houses fifty million people (he has a small fleet living with him, it's like a refugee camp, except for all the hardships and suffering and so on), and when I woke up there was a naked guy on another one of the beds. No sheets or anything.
