| I finished the last of my MYTH books today. Why did I wait so long? I don't know. The last one was rather boring, in a disappointing sort of way. But sitting there doing nothing all night is even more boring, so I finished it.
I'm worried. Kami got us into a bit of a mess with all his "socializing" and whatnot. Apparently, this is reflecting badly on me, as if I had some sort of control over his actions. Do you think I appreciated him spiking the coffee? I've actully very specifically told him that there is not drinking alowed. I do not want that kind of junk in the body, especially when everyine else bails out when it starts getting sick and I'm left to deal with whatever they've done. Not to mention I'd rather keep the illegal ninja moves down to a minimum.
What I'm trying to say is that I really don't have much control over them. I can tell them my opinions on whther or not I think they should do something, but in the end they do what they want to. Kami an be especially hard to deal with because as soon as he starts feeling caged in, he starts breaking every rule we have, even if he agreed to it or thought of it. Not that I don't love the boy, but he's a headache. Tempest is at least a little more appreciative of other people's lives. Though he has been acting weird lately.
I don't want to deal with this. I don't like always being expected to work miracles in order to fix everything. It's just not very much fun.
I used to think it was silly or corny to wear nametags or have various devices showing who is who, but now that it's more than just me and Linc, it seems like a good idea. I mean, I never really realized everyone would have so much trouble telling us apart. I see lots of differences. Maybe it;s harder to tell me from Tempest because we're both rather quiet, but there's a LOT of diffrences. There's more differences with Kami, but I think hes established himself pretty well by now.
I'm hungry now. I want sushi because there are so many places here to get it, but I haven't been to one yet. I'll be here for the rest of the week, probably. The only problem is that I'm working 3-11 all week, except for Thursday and today. Saturday and Sunday are Audit days. I half expect Tasha to ask me to work tonight and Thursday night, and if she does ask I'll probably do it because I feel sorry for her because she's pregnant. -.-; Plus I could use the extra monies. I don't want to work myself into oblivion but I feel obligated to. ;_; | comments: 2 Slices or Cake or Death?   |

| I think I'm getting another cold from walking in the woods with Caitlin.
OMG. It was so cool. ^_^ We went way farther out than we've ever gone. It was a warmish day and we were both bundlked up pretty nicely still. Good thing because we got so THORN'D out there it wasn't funny. Okay, actually, we were both cracking up when about five dead and loose throny vines decided I was their new Mama and attached themselves to my coat and jeans. They weren't growing on anything so no matter what I did they stayed stuck... Caitlin had to get me loose.
Anyway, we were walking down the river, past the Graveyard and the neighbor's house (our neighborhood is only three houses big, there's us, the rednecks across the street, and some old people with a million grandkids who visit sometimes next door) and cutting through their feild. It had just rained, so everything was muddy and we had to jump over a million tiny streams... it was fun. ^_^ Then we started freaking out because we saw this dark shape that kind of looked like someone hanging from a tree (Whenever we go through the woods we see at least one shape that looks like someone hanging from a tree, the last time it was a blanket that looked like a little girl.... ubercreepy) but it turned out to be just a clump of weirdly-shaped trees. So were were walking and talking about lame people who cut for attention or to fit in and our own experiences with cutting (my year-long addiction to it and her friends who do or used to do it) and then she goes, "Whoa, what's THAT? *point*" There was this little shack, just sitting there for no apparent reason. Well, it looked more like the corner of a house which had been knocked down, and maybe the little corner was all that was left standing.
We got a little closer to it. I was freaking because I thought it might be haunted. I was all, "Waa, no! Ghosts are gonna kill us!" and Caitlin was all "This is so ORGLY! Let's explore!" (don't ask XD) So we got closer and she got REAL close (I was too scared, heh) and she was telling me "There' all this stuff in there. There's a bunch of little chairs and a table. Is that a basement?" And I was like, "Girl, you can go in the basement. BUT I AM NOT FOLLOWING YOU." Basements are another of my irrational fears. Well, some basements. Everyone knows that dark, damp places that no one ever goes in are breeding grounds for monsters and ghosts. (No, I don't sleep with my light off, why do you ask?)
So it turns out the little shack we saw first wasn't a shack, it was on outhouse. It even still had a roll of dirty, old toilet paper in it. The real shack/cabin thingy was half demolished, but it still had a bunch of junk in it. There was an old stove, a bed frame some chairs that I had to restrain Caitlin from getting due to REAL danger (I was afraid if she climbed in there she would fall through the floor or something), a sink, and about four of these big metal umbrella-shaped things that we couldn't figure out what were for. They had inscriptions on them, something about poultry equipment and the names Hudson and Hart. So, yeah, that was cool. We went down closer to the river (we could see it from the cabin) and we found some more stuff. The remains of a row boat that looked like it had been covered deliberately with brush and would have been invisible in greener months, and what appeared to be a picnic table, smashed by a fallen tree. We also saw a fire pit with a metal grill-like cover thingy tossed beside it. There were fences made from metal posts and barbed wire everywhere that Mother Nature had worked on destroying for us for who knows how long.
We figured from the style of the stove and bed and the light fixture, plus what little docr remained (some curtains in the cabin and the wallpaper in the outhouse) that it looked like it was there for at least 50 years. I think it was a camping site because of the boat and firepit and stuff... but we don't know what was up with the poultry umbrellas, or why so much stuff was left in there, or why it was even built or abandoned in the first place. Despite the destruction of what appeared to be at least half the cabin, there weren't any chunks of wall or anything on the ground... maybe it was destroyed so long ago that the debris had been all grown over and stuff. Also, if it was a campsite a long time ago, why weren't there any more cabins or anything? I don't know if I'm motivated enough to look it up. I'm sure if I googled the town name, I could find something about it... or maybe at the library, I don't know. It would take a while and I'm phenomenally lazy. -.-;
We decided to tell everyone about what we found but not where we found it, because every time we find something cool (like the old treehouse we found before I moved to Maine), David and Dylan just HAVE to go out and see it. And they are idiot boys who would climb in and sit in the chairs and disturb things and steal stuff... so they suck. They keep disappearing out into the woods for long amounts of time, trying to find the cabin. I hope they never find it because they would ruin it. And I hope the ghosts get them if they do. Yesterday when they came in they were trying to be all cool and enigmatic in a stupid crazy way but they were just being lame. "Oh, we went out ion the woods and found a golden ticket!" "Oh no, we forgot to grab the golden ticket!" Idiotic. I'll be happy when they're dead. I've been out in the woods with them, I know the sort of things they do. Or rather, Lexy-kun does. David almost hit his face with a beer bottle trying to break it once, and he almost fell through the ice into the river about ten times in one day (um, he has more about that in his journal... somewhere).
Right. So that's my big adventure of the week. I'm so hypergiddy lately. I don't know why. Excitement and nerves, I guess. I need to find real packing tape though cuz duct tape DOES NOT HOLD CARDBOARD BOXES CLOSED WELL. >_<; Everyone says duct tape is good for everything.... liars...
So.... today shall be spent with me finding real packing tape (hopefully.... but if I can't, I can just use the duct tape and when I get to Maine we can get some good tape for Wal-Mart on Monday and fix the boxes, no big deal) and then re-packing all my stuff, most of which was never really unpacked so that means going through boxes, deciding what unimportant enough to send ahead, and marking them off as Cutlery so I can tell later. I'm using a Weakerthans code because I'm cool. I took the line "Cutlery and Coffee Cups I stole from all-night resturaunts" from the song "Everything Must Go!" and writing Cutlery on send-ahead boxes and Coffee Cups on keep boxes. Or maybe I could write Cutlery and Coffee Cups on the send-ahead ones and A Phone Call From Far Away on the goes-with-us ones... hmmmm...
Augh, my throat hurts so bad. ;_; I'm probably getting a cold from walking in the woods, but it was warm. Really. The whole river is thawed now. I just wish there was green stuff out. The apple tree out back does seem to be getting buds on it, and all through the woods we saw strange-looking leafy little plants growing. They looked like bulb-type plants. Spring is so late this year. ;_; But sometimes up here it does snow in April. I'm so glad we're going to a deserty place.
As Li'l Cactus said: "The desert, the desert, the home of my soul! I like desserts, too, but I can't live in a dessert." | | comments: 2 Slices or Cake or Death? |

| My mom keeps saying she needs to find a parking lot for me to drive in. and stuff like, "When we go to Texas, I want you to bring your camera so we can tape the baby..." I have no idea what to tell her. ;_; I don't even know my own future right now, I'm so relient on others.
Blah, blah, blah.... I was going to make some astrology icons, but I can't do anything without my laptop. Once again, relient on others! My mom said she wants to buy me a new powercord before we go to Texas, I haven't even told her about Lori buying me one yet...
I went out and bought myself a new CD player that has spiffy written all over it, hooray! I also got a new CD... The deluxe edition on Bat Out of Hell 2. I would have settled for the regular one, but that was all they had, so I got it. I ended up spending over 80 dollars... That's pretty bad, but I'm going crazy over here. Every time they play that commercial that has I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) in it, I start missing my Taylor. ;_; Poor little lappy top...
This idiot guy has been hanging around Kami's journal. He's really annoying and kinda dumb. I mean. He means well. But I really don't like him. I guess Kami is his own person, though, he can make his own deision about what idiots he wants to hang out with...
( A bunch of thoughts on Soulbonding and MPD )
I give up for now. The phone is ringing and there's no way I'll get to it in time, so I'm not even going to try. Probably just one of David's friends, anyway. | | comments: 1 Slice or Cake or Death? |

| *un-friends-only-ifies journal* Why? I don't know. I just feel like it.
So a few days ago, my mom got a cell phone bill for like a thousand dollars for the past two months. That really sucks because it's not my fault, it's my brother's, but I'm the one who has to suffer for it. My mom isn't going to have enough money to pay for my wisdom teeth being removed, which means I have two options. The first is that I can pay for it, and my mom will probably insist on paying me back. The second is that I can wait for who knows how long to ge it done at a later date.
How can I put this? I want my wisdom teeth out as soon as possible because I need to get even MORE dental work done that will have to wait for that. My root canal tooth that needs the crown is slowly chipping away. At this rate, I may end up losing it and I didn't go through all that pain over it for nothing. Plus, there is no way I'm leaving this house until the rest of my dental work is done. But, on the other hand, I'm trying VERY VERY hard not to spend my money. My mom already owes me $200.00, and I only have $1,000 left in savings. I'm not getting a job because my mom is convinced I'm going on that family trip in April with them and ARGH. I don't know what to do. I hate teeth.
If oly my brother's friends were so needy. They should all go kill themselves like they probably want to. They've probably all been raped, are "ana", cut, and threaten to kill themselves on a regular basis for attention. Grar. *bites someone out of pure frustration*
... Maybe teeth aren't so bad after all. | | comments: 1 Slice or Cake or Death? |

| Yes, so after years of writer' block when it comes to a certain story that I had basically put out of my head, I got an idea. My idea? He saves her life. It's perfect! And then, of course, fame is thrown upon his cynical little unsocial head.
Mwahahahaha! It's good now. ^_^ I just have to write it. I only wrote less than one page, but I had this other idea and then this less-than-a-page had a purpose. Yum, purpose.
I'll have to change names, though. I don't really like the names I was using anymore. | | comments: 1 Slice or Cake or Death? |

| Let's play a game. I've posted the first ten words of every song on my current playlist. You have to try and figure out the name and artist of each song only going by the first ten words. Fo obvious reasons, I haven't posted any lyrics that give away the name of the song within the first ten words. If you don't know one of them, just say you don't know. I also didn't post any that are in foreign languages because I figured those would be too hard. Leave your answersin a comment. If you want, you can make this into a meme and post the same thing with instructions in your journal. I've also defriended this post so more than just three people can play, though I doubt aanyone but Lori will give it a whack. Guess away. ^_^
