!!!!!!! (Quiz time) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cho
You're chocolate. You're the old soul type, people
feel that they have known you their entire
life. Many often open up to you for they view
you as thoughtful and trustworthy. Although
people trust you, you have a hard time trusting
them. You prefer to keep your feelings bottled
up inside, or display them very quietly. It is
alright to open up every once in a while.


Which kind of candy are you?
brought to you by Quizilla


That's true. I actually got chocolate on the first round, and it just so happens to be my favorite.


STEVE BURNS AT THE EMPTY BOTTLE JULY 16!

I'll be there!

What a weekend.

Friday: I didn't do much, but went to Taste of Chicago, and saw Tina Marie, who rocked my socks. Friday night, I ended up going out with Rohan and Tonya, and we had a fair amount of fun. We went to a party of one of Helena's friends. 'twas okay.

Saturday: I wasn't supposed to work, but I took Julius's shift. It wasn't bad, as it was fairly slow, and Everyone was in a good mood. Saturday night, I went to Jenn's party, which was pretty boring. I wasn't really in the best of moods, and considering I was looking cue and stuff, I was semi-dissapoined.

Sunday: The actual PRIDE day. The actual parade was awesome. I had a blast at the parade, and everyone (meaning completly random people) bought/gave me drinks. I didn't know if they wanted me to get wasted, or what. I didn't. get wasted that is. After the parade, things started dying down, and everyone got into the bitchiest mood, except me, I was having a wonderful time. I don't think it was the weather, becasue it was a beautiful day. Scott Show threw up, Rohan was mad at me, Tarin got upset because we didn't pick her up at work, and Scott didn't get to get trashed, because he was at work. Everyone was just bitchy, and I was trying to calm everyone down. In the early evening, it was prolly around 7, everyone decided to part ways, and go home, until later (I wanted to go to piece to see jake play, and helena was to come with me. I knew that meant I wasn't going out later, because I had to be here at work at 8). Well, we (jenelle, helena, and I) were on the way home in Helena's car when...

we got in a crash. Boo. That was NOT the way to end the weekend. Her car wasn't totaled, but it didn't start. She was hysterical, and I kept everyone calm. Jenny, a friend of Tarin's, drove by, and stopped to help. Jenelle left with Jenny. She got scared. I was upset at that situation, but I didn't show it, and I won't. Everything was handled, for the most part, by me, because I was the only one with a sane head. I usually am in emergency situations. We went back to my house, Helena and I, I made dinner, and we watched a movie and went to sleep.

I am pooped. What a weekend.

Yoga

Is Amazing.

Today was my first day, and I feel on top of the world. My back doesn't ache, I am breathing deeper, and my muscles are relaxed. It's like a perfect day to start work! I have a crazy day today, so hopefully the yoga was a good start. While doing yoga, I was hurting like a madman, because I was streching muscles I didn't know existed. Now, I feel it all. Wow. I can really see how people who do yoga are more relaxed, and ready to handle jobtasks.

Wow.

You know what? I just realized that my blog is 2 years old! WOW!!! that's crazy! I'm going on year three!

Hey Jake- Check your comments from the 20th. It's mine. If you're not doing anything this weekend, I'll totally introduce you to Jared.

Hump Day

It's Wednesday. Golly, this week is really taking it's time. This weekend will be fun though. It'll be my first ever

PRIDE!

I'm excited, and not at the same time. Considering the fact I have had no recent attraction to boys, and I'm not having sex, and I'll be low on funds (well my stock will go through Friday, after I pay rent I'll be able to have a little bit of fun). I don't really know what to do. My single friends will be busy trying to find as many people as possible to hook up with, as my friends in relationships will be enjoying their sig. others, and my straight friends will all be doing their thing. Oh yes, and since my ID is gone, there will be no over 21 clubs and bars for me. Damn.

I think it's all for the best. For some odd reason, things seem to be oddly working themselves out. I mean, hey, I'm still alive, right?

I didn't get tested yesterday. Two reasons:

1) I went to Crunch Fitness (it's a gym www.crunch.com) and I got a free one year membership. That was cool, but there was a ton of paperwork to fill out, and contracts to sign.

2) I went home to take a shower, and masturbated (which was amazing, since I haven't in a while, and yeah.)

By the time I was supposed to get on the bus to go, it was a little late, but I went anyways. I got to the stop, and four busses passed me! I didn't know what was up. I was like woah nelly! what's up with all the busses passing? That in itself made me an extra 15 minutes late, because if the first bus would have stopped, I would have made it for sure. Do doubt.

So I went back home, and chilled with my roomates, and went to sleep. I woke up this morning, and went to my internship, where I have been all day. I'm going to go home, probably watch a movie, and go to sleep, because I have to work at 8 tomorrow morning, and I want to go to the gym before work. I might as well, right?

Other than that, everything's cool.

Emergency Post

I had no idea guys that Madstone was closing.

I am so sorry for all of you... I didn't know at all. Oh no. I feel like an asshole. I don't know why though. I just do. That's so sad. I loved that place. Wow. I don't even know what to say.

I love you all.

I got Chills

They're multiplyin' ....


I get tested today, for the first time.

I'm scared shitless, and I don't know why

God Bless America

It's a new day!

I was totally almost late for work today. I had to be here at 8, and I woke up at 7:35. We all know that the bus won't make it here that fast, so I had to call my friend cab. I made it with 4 minutes to spare, that's because I told my driver to step on it if he could. I prolly smell like crap, and i sure do look like it, but hey, I'm here, right?

Last night, I was supposed to see Jake at Piece. Jared went, and I was to meet him there. I left with my roomates, when they received a phone call. we had to run an errand, and by the time it was over, we figured Jake wasn't playing anymore, so we went home and played Clue. I won.

I feel bad for not telling Jake and Jared. I hope they forgive me. I'll call them today. I have every evening off this week, so I'm sure I can hang out with them.

If not this week, then this weekend for sure. It's Pride.

I'm at work until 1 today. But I have to leave, so I can train a newcomer on the beauties of the POS.

Good thing I have some Starbucks to keep my head on.

:)

Have a wonderful day!

Things to do today:

Go to Work
Go to Crunch to get (hopefully) 1 year pass
CLEAN ROOM
Pay bills
Buy new shave oil
Plan Trip to STL
Look up Beds

Talk about the worst week ever

Friday: Went to Blue's fest, cut myself with a razor, and got trashed, because that's what Blue's Fest is. It's a free concert for the city of Chicago in Grant Park where all you do is drink all day. Tarin bought a 30 case and her, Jenelle and I drink the whole thing. Then we went out. I have VIP passes to Circuit (free cover, free drinks) every Friday, so I went there with Scott. It was a ton of fun. I love being 21 (or at least my ID saying that I'm 21)

Saturday; I didn't have to work, so I hung out with my roomates, and cleaned my house. They went to Blue's Fest, and I stayed home. They brought a ton of people over, which was fun, and they got drunk. We went to a party, and I met a really really really hot guy named Tony, who used to date my friend Kevin. It was obvious that he still liked Kevin, so I didn't even try. We have good conversation though. Maybe if my face heals (keep reading) I'll see him again.

Sunday: I had a presentation at work, to be a presenter, and I was totally ready for the presentation, but didn't know that I also had training the same day. So, I had to go to training, and then do my presentation. I wanted to be the first presenter, because I was the first one there, so I set up the presentation computer exactly how I wanted it, so everything would go smoothly. That didn't work out. Of course I was last, and the people (the managers) watching me, pestered me with questions. I talked way to fast, and what was supposed to be a 20 minute presentation turned into about 12. I couldn't think of a thing to drag it along, and so I wrapped up. I was TOTALLY ready for this too, but I froze. I NEVER get nervous for auditions. I've been in from of people my whole life. I love the limelight. It's crazy. I had sweaty palms. I never have sweaty pamls. Now I'll have to wait until the next auditions.

Monday: I went to work, and found out that I can't be late ever again. Not that I make it a continual thing to be late, but I can't do it. I got in a rollerblafing accident and totally fucked up my whole chin and neck. It sucks, because now I am forced to wear collar shirts and tuttlenecks for the next few days, until things heal up.

Tuesday: Work was so long. Sometimes, I hate customers. I tried to find a doctor, but it's so hard, and the process takes forever. So I was looking, and looking, and found nothing. Rohan and Scott Show came over. I think my other friends (Scott and Eddie) are mad at me. Well, not really Eddie, because he called me, but I don't know. Smelly thinks so too.

Wednesday: Sophia got mad at me, because I haven't been in the last 2 Fridays at my internhip, for many reasons, all of which I called her about. It was BS. I tried more to find a doctor, but all of them are booked for like the next 2 weeks, or are availible Saturday, but I work on Saturday. I NEED a doctor's appointment. SOON. I'll get one on Monday. I'll search all day tomorrow for one. Laura came over, and I already was having a bad enough week, and she surprised me. It was nice to see her. We went to Wicker Park, and walked around (me in a turtleneck and shorts, and her in a black tube dress. Imagine how we looked together). We talked, and then went to sleep.

Thursday: I wrote my schedule down wrong, and was supposed to be at work from 10-3. I could have sworn it was 3-10 for three reasons:
One, I always work 3-10, two, I had worked it all week, and three, Latonya works mornings. Last week they messed up my schedule three times, so when they called this morning, I figured it was another mistake. Well it wasn't. I had NO money for a cab, so I had to borrow from my roomate, who is also running out of money. Good thing I get paid tomorrow. So I rushed out of the house, and of course today had to be the ONLY day where I can't just walk to the corner and pick up a cab. The bus wasn't coming either. I spent FOREVER looking for a cab, and when one finally came, guess what? We ran into EVERY red light possible. On top of that, my shirt's collar keeps falling exposing my healing scared skin on my neck, and it's not funny to see customers rubing their neck every five minutes knowing they are looking at my neck, and I can't explain to everyone what happend. I get here, and no one talked to me for like the first hour. No co-workers at all. I'm thinking I might get fired. I asked if they wanted me to stay any later, because I was late, and I'm here until 6 now. 2 and a half more hours. Then I have to go home, clean my room, and get my life situated.

Here's to a good weekend... so we hope and pray.

so

Christopher is up a creek without a paddle with a hole in the boat that's got a hole in it, and has been overturned. He's trying to at least swim for shore, but that seems like an impossibility, because of the rocks in his shoes which are super glued to his feet, and the rapids are slowly getting faster as the water rises.

But I think a rescue team is coming my way. more later

Friday, June 04, 2004

Wow

Well, Harry Potter came out today, and I didn't see it. Can you believe it!? I KNOW!!!!! Let's see. What else did I do today though?

I got up, I went to the DMV today, but I needed my Birth Certificate, and a social security card. My mom has both of them. Thst sucks. My roomates got their Id's though. I love My new roomates.

Went grocery shopping with the new roomates. Got TONS of food.

Went home, and put up the food, and painted the house. Well worked on painting the house. One of the colors of blue we got for the living room was the wrong color, so it looks liks shit that sucks.

Then I went to get something special.

MY BOOK SIGNED BY DAVID SEDARIS!!!!

He stopped signing, and talked to me for about 7 minutes. It was awesome. We talked about Good Ole' Raleigh, and 'twas fun times. Wow. Considering I waited 3 and a half hours for the autograph.

It felt like I was at six flags, and I was waiting in line for the biggest roller coaster in the park. TAlking to the other random people in line just to pass time, and then finially seeing the coaster. Getting the small little shivers in the bottom of your stomach, and then...

finally... the ride. The rush of blood all through your body, and the sensation you get with the wind in your face.

All that waiting for a minute and a half of excitement.

That's what I told David (we're on a first name basis) and he laughed.

He gave me my book back, and said "I hope the wait was worth it... here's to the ride".



OH yes, I also got a book signed for Erika. She's the one who got me started on Sedaris. That's the surprise. I need your address E., so I can send it to you.

Now I am with Paige and Kevin, a boy whom I have mentioned previously in this blog. You have to catch up on that. Yes, I do still think he's hot. I know, I know. Me and boys. OKay.

Well, I want to do something, but the two of them are seeimingly tired. If they are going to sleep, then I shall either return home and go to Vertigo with Tarin and Jenelle, or go see Harry Potter at a late show.

Much love.

Peace in the Middle East.

Friday

So Christopher needs a date for Friday. He has an amazing date planned, but he has no date. Haha. How funny. It'll prolly be a one man date. It's okay. Those can be the best kind. With his ID, he can even enjoy a glass of wine by himself. That's my plan.

Leave internship early,
go to special signing.
go see Harry Potter
go get a glass of wine.

Christopher's date with Christopher.
