I woke up refreshed this morning. I bought a fruit cup before getting in to work. I think all is going well so far. I’m probably going to Black Heart Procession on Saturday at the Knitting Factory. The weather is much more bearable. And tomorrow’s Friday!! What more could I ask for?

The mess of papers on my desk is slowly receding. I’ve gotten suppliers to write off money (fought with a couple of them even) and reconciled several problem accounts. I had a meeting with my bosslady yesterday regarding her attitude, etc. So everything’s good right now. Now I just have to finish everything. Argh.

I was going through some of my old journals yesterday, and in one of them there were some pictures taken of me on my 21st birthday. I had hair down to my shoulders. Now I’m debating on growing it out. I sorta miss all of that hair. But I remember what a bitch it was. So I don’t know.

Finished Denis Johnson’s Already Dead. Very good noir book for those of ya interested in that. I’m starting on Catch-22 by Joseph Heller now. Hopefully I can get through that one (I started it my senior year of high school, put it down and never picked it up since).

Um… is it Friday yet?

What is your Alter-Ego
Personality?

Well that’s sorta stupid. I haven’t been goth since ’98.

While I was going home from work last night, I caught a bit of Bush’s speech. Each time he opens his mouth, it sounds like a second-grader giving a book report presentation to his class. It’s funny because if most politicians talk like that, they would be accused of being pedantic; but since we know Bush is fucking stupid, well there you go.

I haven’t shaved in a couple of days, and my beard is getting itchy. Now THAT is annoying.

It’s really warm and sorta suffocating. I wish it was like this time last week when it didn’t get past 70 degrees.

So I’m still tired, but it’s ok since my team is playing tonight (Chicago Bears). I’ll just chill watching that and maybe make another mix tape.

What more needs to be said? I need a haircut. I need to catalog all of my books and CDs (well… it’s more like it’s a good idea to catalog that shit). I need to get out more. I need a vacation.

Hey! Speaking of…. Anyone want to host me for a couple of days? I’m thinking of doing a tour of USA sometime soon. All I need is a scam to promote. Hmm….

Yo. Happy Friday y’all. I just called Senator Byrd’s office becuz there’s a rumor that he’s going to filibuster the upcoming war resolution vote in the Senate. The lady who took my call was very nice. When she suggested I call my senators and congressperson, I told her I already chewed their ears off. She laughed.

Now here I am, and I have so much to get done for the baby shower today. Must go pick up food, decorate the room and coordinate everything. Uy. I swear this is the last one I do. This time, I’m faced with collecting too much money. This has never happened to me. Ever.

Um… now I go back to sleep. Must crawl under desk!!!

This lockout of the dock workers is causing rampant boredom here at work. No one has anything to do. We start to burn things and set the building on fire. Well… not really, but we’re almost at that point. I guess we’re at the stage where we just insult each other really badly until one of us breaks.

BTW, I got into it with my boss-lady. I told her she needs to treat others with respect or else she won’t get any. La de da. She was taken aback for a second, but for the most part, she got the point. So things are peaceful for now. I’m still looking for another job though. You can’t be too prepared.
