I've really neglected my journal here lately. Between working two jobs and having two bands I just don't have time. Yesterday I napped in the late afternoon. I can't get enough sleep it seems. I think it must be the lingering effect of my having had mono, but whatever it is I wish it'd go away. Brian just got back from New York. I'm glad. I always miss him so much when he's gone. I did have a lot of fun with Nickie, Marife, and Amber (just to name a few of my accomplices) while he was away. Picture this: Nickie and I on an all-day drunk, listening to Duke Ellington, and pretending to be spies. It was as fun as it sounds. I'm so glad I got to see Amber. She's so busy, but I always enjoy spending time with her when she's in town. Marife, Nickie, and I had lunch at Cafe Lou Lou, and we decided to sit outside. Well, it's near the school for the blind, so the crosswalk sign beeps CONSTANTLY and even talks sometimes. We concluded that it was a very necessary disturbance, but annoying nonetheless. I miss Jessie. A lot. She's really busy right now, and I know that we'll be able to squeeze in some fun soon, but I hope she knows that I think about her often. The guys have a show tomorrow. It's John's birthday, so I'm excited to share it with him (and t.p.). I hope that you-know-who doesn't show up. I mean, just for once. It's my good friend's birthday, and I want to be a part of the celebration, but I don't want to have to spend the evening being vibed out by some good-for-nothing @!#*&% ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! I hate her!!!!! One day I'm going to snap, and then hair will be pulled, punches will be thrown, and I, as always, will be the one at which everyone else is mad. Until then, wish me luck. I have to go to work now, but I feel a little bit better having just vented the whole situation. Thanks for listening (or reading, as the case may be).
