What a crappy day. It was so crappy in fact that when I got on the bus the bus driver said to me, "One of those days, huh?" It was one of those days.
I woke up this morning with a stomach ache and a sore throat. I was also incredibly thirsty! So, I drank some iced tea hoping that would rid me of the sore throat, but no, as the day wore on, my throat got worse. I drank two cups of green tea and tons of water at work, but nothing seemed to work. It got duller at points, but it's still there being all sore and stuff. I wanted to leave early thinking that the workload was light, but at about 5pm (when I normally go on break), I was asked if I could stay late! I went on my break and I couldn't even eat anything. By this point, I could barely talk and was just in a foul mood. I stayed late, decided that I had to treat myself but couldn't find what I was looking for at Store-24, but decided to give it one more shot at the gas station convenience store I always pass but never go inside. I lucked out and found a Sunkist Float that I've been thinking about for weeks. It didn't help my throat, but I left the store in high spirits.
& now I still feel bad, but this made me fangirl squeal with glee. Are any of you reading Ryan Adam's blog? It's hilarious and honest and bizarre. This is probably one of my most favorite entries so far:
“TWO SONGS on tape today. I mean, not on tape, i work at home and record onto my little robotic recording machine. But not one, TWO. already. ooooh i love them they are sweet and gentle. with funky laid back hip hop beats. but no electric anything but bass.
the first one is called ‘Allumette Alemagne” and the second one “Disappearing Act.” I would sample them for you but J would do a frontside grind on my face.
XX more later, Foggy, my invisible electric diary machine.
oh by the way, from now on I am going to talk to my blog like it was a spider-plant. It’s pretend house plant name is “Foggy”
Do you name your house plants? I sure do.”

I honestly think this may be one of the best things about 2008: The Post-Apocalyptic Workout written by The SlackMistress! She is encouraging reader participation, so hopefully, it will be motivating enough to get me shooting guns and um, taking names of people I can use as human shields!
There's also a livejournal feed here. |

TODAY THIS JOURNAL TURNS 4!
I don't know why I'm so addicted to Blog Explosion, but I am. I found this site when I was still writing The Hipster Brigade, but that blog was not accepted as suitable. A bit later, I decided to add ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) skafunkmelt & [The Lost Tea Cup] -- back when I was trying to start up another blog. After awhile, I knew that updating journals all around the internet was not going to work for me. In fact, it pisses me off that people don't think of livejournals as suitable blogs, it says right on the homepage that "LiveJournal is a simple-to-use (but extremely powerful and customizable) personal publishing ("blogging") tool..." but no one seems to think of livejournal as such.
You know, I used to be a big shot, not a ton of readers, but a fair amount of people, strangers, stopping by to read what I was writing. I had people writing emails to me. I had people linking to me calling me a writing genius. This was back in the day when I couldn't have pictures of myself plastered all over my blog. This was when no one knew what I looked like unless I emailed them a pic. I was truly anonymous in a way. I was being judged by my writing.
But now, I live this quiet life and no one knows a thing. |
