*********LOW RIDING GARBAGE TRUCKS**********
So, I'm heading outside for my break to smoke a cigarette and enjoy the fumes of hot garbage. Am I'm walking down the metal grating stairs into the garage where they're working on the garbage trucks I hear the `Lowrider' song playing somewhere below me. I look down and see four or five guys dancing around their brand spanking new garbage truck in some sort of bizarre ritual, I guess they were initiating the garbage truck or something. I found it pretty damn funny. Wish I had had a video camera at that very moment.
Almost beats the time I saw the construction workers doing the tango....
No man, I'm not kidding. They were actually doing the tango, rose in their mouth and all.
Freaky stuff man... Freaky deeky.
So Jeffrey called me yesterday from Cali-for-ni-A, where's he's living some strange pimp life... Good goin' Jeff, now just don't produce any offspring for awhile and everything will be alright.
Oh, and before I forget... Our apartment is now a home! We have a couch on it's way down tonight! That means I can watch TV the way it was meant to be watched! Feet propped up while I'm eating EZ Cheese and crackers and drinking my fourth coke for the day! Life will be sweet this weekend I can tell ya'.
More to come....

******STILL ALIVE AND KICKING!*********
Eh. Yesterday morning was probably the roughest morning I've ever had. (Pause for a moment while I scratch my head in thought). Yep. Thinking back, I truly believe it was the most difficult morning I've ever had. And it was over in an hour and a half. With only thirty seconds of speaking.
And nothing was accomplished. But after the initial hump, I feel more confidant, if not more relaxed, about the upcoming events due to proceed in the near future. Ah well, dealing with it the best way I can. But I'm still alive and kicking. Just wanted to let everyone know who actually glances at my daily (or.... uhm... monthly) ramblings that everything's okay for the moment. I'll call everyone later to let them know the details of my morning.
Oh yeah, finally saw Anger Management. Excellent flick. Especially when he finally loses it in the office. That's gonna be me one day, I'm telling you.
More to come...

*********TOMORROW'S THE BIG DAY....***********
I'm exhausted. I've been worrying about this for the past six months. Or four months. Or whatever. I'm tired. I feel like I could fall asleep at any given time. Just sit here and nod off. Once this crap is all over with, I think I'm just going to sleep for an entire weekend and try to regain my energy. I miss bouncing off the walls and screaming at stupid people. I feel like I'm walking around in a half daze most of the time, well, at least for the past month or so. Nothing feels real at all. Stupid allergies.
Tomorrow's the big day. I'm dreading it. I know exactly what's going to happen and shouldn't stress out as much as I am, I feel bad about it, I wish it had never happened, but that's what I get when I run around with skanky, horrible people like I used to. Ah well, live and learn. Or is it learn from your past mistakes? I dunno... I can't remember a damn thing outside of the beginning of the year. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Hopefully, though, it'll all be over soon and I can pay for my mistakes and keep going and marry Kris and everything will right itself in time. Hopefully.
Pop a top for me and wish me luck...
More to come... sincerely hoping....

*********JOB QUEST 2003***********
I don't know what it is, but every year around this time things start to go haywire and I end up looking for a new job. This year's no different. As I'm sure everyone has heard, my "contract" with Dunn and Bradstreet was cancelled... they said I wasn't comprehending the information from the training classes. My reply...
What information?! Their training was absolutely horrible! I was originally scheduled to be in training for two eight hour days and two four hour days! Instead I got shafted and thrown on the floor without any passwords after the second day of a combined total of three hours of training and the last two days which were supposed to be the eight hour days of training ended up being a total of six combined... Well, I wasn't to depressed, just stressed out due to current situations. I hate call centers anyway. Always have, always will.
Currently, I'm working at BFI. It's a waste disposal company. And no, I don't take out the garbage. I'm working in the accounting department processing new accounts and such. It's not bad, and if it wasn't a 65 mile trip back and forth everyday, I wouldn't mind it at all. But since there's hardly anything going on in Austin (even to wait on tables there's a lineup around the block) I guess I'll just stay here for awhile and hope for the best.
Congrat's to Hai and his engagement!
I'm not sleeping anymore... I can only close my eyes and zone out. To much stress causes me not to sleep.... and as pretty much everyone now knows, I'm under quite a bit of it.
Here's to hoping for freedom...
More to come....
