Hey, shout, summertime blues, jump up and down in your blue suede shoes

Went to Tropicana in Kannapolis this weekend. Swear to god, there were girls there twice my size in clothes that would have fit me. Nasty looking things, didn't even speak Spanish. But then there were a lot of girls there who were little and cute in very skimpy clothing, too, so I only got a chance to dance with one guy, and he only came up to my shoulder. (Would have come up to my chin if I hadn't been wearing my sexy pink stilettos.) All in all, though, I enjoyed it, even if someone buggered out on us for the third time in a row. Just as well--I mean, if people aren't going to dance, they shouldn't go dancing.
Tried to get the crowd together to go for a movie tonight, but everyone's busy.
Finally got Fernando's band's CD in the mail. It's really good. Con Sentimiento Duranguense by Salazar Band--go buy it! Yesterday!

Currently listening :
Con Sentimiento Duranguense
By Salazar Band
Release date: By 31 January, 2006

Midnight, getting uptight, where are you?

I called Jose after I left work today, wanted to see if he would meet me at the library. I had a killer opening to a story I'm working on, and I really wanted someone to see it, someone who actually knows me IRL. I don't show my stories to many people, because I've had so many people just not get it. I was hoping he'd enjoy it. Well, he said he'd see if he could go. 2 hours later, almost two and a half, I gave up and went home. In all fairness, he didn't promise to show up, so I can't be mad at him for it. But I am a little disappointed not to get a non-writer/non-geek's perspective on my writing.
I got home and found out that Grandma had surgery on her eyes today and forgot to mention it to me. I was gone to work before she got up this morning, so I had no clue until I got home. I'm slightly confused as to why she wouldn't tell me such a thing--seems to me surgery's a pretty big deal!

Stupid girl
Category: Life

Jess, Jose, and I went to Charlotte over the weekend. We were going to go to a club called Skandalos. Jessie and I had been there before, but Jose hadn't. So we got there about 9:30, because I'd been driving rather, ah, aggressively. Club wasn't open yet. So J&J wanted to go eat. I didn't have money, for obvious reasons (i.e., I don't get a paycheck until tomorrow), so Jose, bless his heart, offered to help me out. So we went and ate, and had a great time once I confiscated his damn cellphone and made him QUIT TEXTING AT THE TABLE. (Grr.)
So we got back out to the car, and...I'd locked us out. Yep, that's right. When Grandpa had taken the car to the shop (and dumbass Kenny the Mechanic had failed to get to it, after swearing up and down that he could) I'd taken the keys off my keychain to give him. He gave me his word that the ignition key to my car would open the doors. So I didn't worry about the fact that the old man had dropped the door key somewhere in the car and not bothered to find it. And then by the time we got to Charlotte I'd forgotten all about it...until I went to unlock the car.
There was a Fed guy in town on business who stopped to "help" us. What that really meant was that he stopped to be an asshole to Jess and Jose because they were standing around outside the car, then when I came up tried to hit on me. I turned my best sarcastic-bitch humor on him, hoping it would chase him off, but I think he was into it. Which really sucked, because he may or may not have had good intentions, but he was being so rude! Especially to Jose.
Took me 40 minutes of freaking out to realize I still had roadside service on my cellphone plan, even though Grandma had said she was going to take it off. THEN it took the locksmith another 45 minutes to get there, then another half an hour to get the car open. So by the time we actually got into the car, it was after midnight. I tried to drive, but I was too shaken up by the whole ordeal to even get us out of the parking lot. I swear to God, when Jose said he could drive back, he was my freakin' hero.
The next day, Jess was sick as a dog, and I was so humiliated that I could have crawled up under a rock and never come back out. I'm such an idiot. But at least they were cool about it.

*untitled*
Category: Writing and Poetry

Chasing my own shadow,
running in circles
running on empty
running behind.
Clutter consumes my world.
No time to rest
no time to breathe
no time to think.
Stress panic anger fear
No one helps me
No one can
Nothing they can do
200 percent isn't enough
This doesn't feel like breaking down
I'm starting to d i s s o l v e . . .

Lord, help us. Please don't ever let her procreate or move within 500 miles of me. Thank you.

PS - her "writing" is complete garbage by the way. Confirmed by 9 other people I am friends with or have acquaintance with who actually write professionally for a living.
