08:00 pm - 2008 is really not a good year for me
ok, so I moved on january 3rd, and that was good, but since then...
my dad had a heart attack
my grandpa, who has parkenson's dementia, fell, hit his head, and was presumed a gonner, but then was moved to hospice, got "better" and was moved to a nursing facility and has been pretty much slowly killing my grandmother via prolonged heartbreak and exhaustion, with no end in sight.
I quit my job at gymboree when the strike ended on the belief that shows would be staffing up again, but got roped into staying too long and didn't get another job for a month.
I got strep throat and it got into my tonsils and has been making them prone to inflammation and "tonsilliths" ever since.
I got an awesome job which made me totally exhausted but only lasted 3 weeks, with the promise I'd be hired back in a couple months, and when they started back up, I was replaced by a intern who happened to be related to a director... and the expectation that I would get that job cost me a great babysitting gig.
My dad got engaged and I have no idea how to feel about it, cause I'm scared she's gonna turn into a bitch like his last girlfriend. Also, she's been divorced twice and has a 4 year old...
My relationship has been threatening to fall apart about once a month.
I spent the entire summer fruitlessly looking for sound jobs and getting rejected. I even got a no-call-back from a job as a receptionist at a physical therapy clinic!
I got some kind of food-borne illness which caused me to be violently ill for a week, including a late-night trip to the ER.
I finally got a job but it's rather boring and doesn't go anywhere. It won't help me in film or if I go into occupational therapy, and it doesn't have any room for advancement in-and-of-itself.
my dad has his millionth kidney stone, but because of the drugs he's on from the heart attack they can't break it up so he has to wait and pass it naturally which is not easy and he's been struggling with it for almost a week now.
my sister is about to start college, but she's currently in the hospital fighting a staph infection from massive zit.
oh, and I stepped in a hairball, barefoot, yesterday morning.
and that's the short version...

02:52 pm - why I'm not sleeping much till graduation
so, I was supposed to have 3 weeks to do the sound for movie x. I got the final cut on Thursday night. It has to be done by the next Sunday. 10 days. for three weeks of work.
and the other movie still has RESHOOTS to do! which means a final cut is still quite a ways off, and it has to be done by two weeks from today... (hint, that film is not gonna be getting much if any foley).
all this in addition to my regular classes and papers and housekeeping and errand running....

07:18 pm - an open letter to every christians everywhere
I'm Jewish. I like being Jewish. I have no desire to have any other religion. As a Jew, I do not believe in hell; thus telling me I'm going to go to hell if I don't convert is like me telling a creationist that they're going to evolve. Just as the creationist would laugh in my face, so I would like to laugh in yours. But I respect your right to believe something I disagree with. So please leave me alone. I can probably out bible-quote you, so please don't tell me that what you call the "old testament" "predicts the coming of Jesus" or tell me to join "Jews for Jesus" (which is a cult...). I'm Jewish and I'm happy about it. Please leave my religion out of our relationship and that includes Anonymous chick tracts.

06:21 pm - Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad Day!
so I had a horrible, terrible, no good, very bad day. when I was cleaning my hand blender after making breakfast, I sliced my left index finger pretty badly. it bled really badly and trying to get the bleeding to stop and get out the door made me late for work.
then at work I called the "wrong" line of a studio, and the guy was really nasty to me, and then trying to politely get off of that call (instead of hanging up on the asshole) made me miss an incoming call. and answering the phone so it doesn't go to voicemail is a big part of my job (basicaly the reason the department decided they needed their own intern instead of sharing).
on my way out of work, I pull my car up to the little box to wave my pass to get out, and nearly scrape my car on a post. So I back up, to avoid scraping the side (scrape it anyway) and the gate closes before I can get out and my pass won't let me out (it turns out it's a 10 min reset between uses) so I go down to the other exit where there are humans to let me out. It's on a steep downward slope and I scraped the bottom of my bumper on the curb and when I backed up, it tore the bumper almost all the way off.
I think I'll move to Australia.
The very nice parking attendant guys (who I will have to bring cookies later in the week) helped me put the bumper back on and I just barely made it to class on time (I'm in education right now)
We're supposed to cut open our molds in jewelery tonight, I'm gonna make the professor do it for me so I don't cut my hand off.
It's the kind of day where you just want to go home and go to bed, but Jonathan misplaced his cell phone (my money is on it being on his desk under all that paper) and is expecting me to pick him up at 10:30.

04:48 pm - RIP cell phone
so my phone is toast, it refused to get past the startup screen. I replaced it, I have the same number, BUT I lost all my phonebook info. so if you want me to be able to call you, I recomend giving me your number again, either post it as a reply, e-mail it to me, or give me a call. thanks!

08:23 am - this is what comes of repeated all nighters
"if the cracker is not jesus it's not a crime to poke it"
"because of transubstantiation, poking the cracker is heresy"
both of these phrases almost ended up in my research paper.

01:24 am - an addendum to the previous post
no professors should be allowed to assign papers which they have no intention of reading. if you can't be bothered to read the paper, why should I be bothered to write it?
(the papers I'm referring to are designed purely to prove that we were in class. the professor involved could have simply taken roll, instead he has us write a 2 page paper for every day he's not lecturing)

10:25 pm - why?
what is it about me that makes people think it's ok to take out their frustrations on me?
I can't seem to find a roommate that doesn't do this. I just hope Jonathan won't...

 Dear Santa...
Dear Santa,
This year I've been busy!
Last Monday ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) ofthewest and I robbed a bank (-50 points). Last Wednesday I donated bone marrow to alice_again in a life-saving procedure (300 points). Last month I didn't flush (-1 points). In October I committed genocide... Sorry about that, hardartist (-5000 points). In March I bought porn for investinlithium (-10 points).
Overall, I've been naughty (-4761 points). For Christmas I deserve a lump of coal!
Sincerely,
moonablaze |
Kat, you can totaly have bone marrow if you need it, and Jon, if you need help getting porn I'll totaly hook you up (no kiddy stuff though). but Jody, you can forget about me robbing a bank with you. (and I'm not exacly planing on killing anybody any time soon)

01:21 am - as long as nobody needs an iv....
 | You scored as Medic. You're a medic. Not really into fighting people, but prefer to help and heal. You're a caring person who generally wants to help, but don't fight. But instead you heal the injured. Your a brave person, but most people generally regard you as foolish because of the risks you take to help others. But you don't care because you're a battlefield medic.
(I had to change all the your-s to you're-s, cause the person who made this was gramaticaly challanged) |

If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want- good or bad. When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or moritified) about what people remember about you.
