i am drunk. all i can do is lay here with this damn mac in my lap and listen to casimir pulaski day, decatur, and chicago by sufjan stevens on repeat in that order over and over on youtube. nobody's gonna come in here and see me but oh well, i can escape into this weird comfortable melancholic era of some part of my teenage years this way

job i thought i got was a scam. did research, learned a lot thanks to a fellow LJ member. google scentura scam and you will learn all you need to know if you wanna really. today is the cop15 conference. i feel like i'm the only one on my flist that is fucking scared this "climate change" bullshit might actually pass. or even fucking know what is going on right now. i wish i could watch the conference live from somewhere, all i can get are news feeds of protesters being arrested outside. also i guess my twitter updates aren't being updated here anymore? idk

today i'm laying around and smoking a lot. tomorrow i go in for a final interview for a job as an office manager for a company working 9 to 5 monday through friday. i'm nervous and confident and scared that i might actually get it. the interview is 2 to 3 hours long. i don't know what to expect, but i'm used to that sort of thing.

it's starting to feel a little more like home now. the party was a lot of fun - failed to take any pictures. i just suck at that sort of thing anymore. this is the first time i'm here alone. i don't really know what to say i guess? i'm supposed to be doing shit but i'm just being a big lazy piece. all is going fairly well though. this apartment is always so cold! it's not done yet or i'd take pictures. soon. hopefully. until then, here are two photobooth pictures (still using kevin's mac a;lsdkfjal;df) me and adore`





my face always looks like that when i sit here

i have already put like two little tiny cigarette burn holes in the sheer drape thingies hanging over our lil french door thangs that lead out into the balcony. shhhh hee hee don't tell kevinnnn. I MEAN the things like flap out and burn themselves, i can't help it. they were there when we got here so WHATEVER. being able to walk over and update my livejournal whenever i want from a laptop again is so insane. i haven't had a laptop with some internet in like fucking six or seven months. a part of me is coming BACK TO LIFE lol



this represents the internet fetus portion of me waking up and turning into a tiny baby me thing

holy shit we have internet heeeeeere wheeee thanks unsecured linksys network person somewhere around heeeere yaaay

alright. so kevin and i moved into our new apartment in the city. we love it a lot and shit but the place has a lot of loose ends that pretty much we're going to have to take care of ourselves. shit like.. well, we agreed on a bunch of stuff being fixed before we moved in -- all the doorknobs were broken or at least janky, some fuck ups in the walls, shit not working here and there, etc etc. none of this shit was actually fixed except the holes in the wall. cool thing is, they're letting us paint in here, but because of that notion, they didn't repaint the spots where they patched the walls so there are just white patches in some rooms. classy lol.

but yeah all these fucking doorknobs are shit, most of the doors don't even have the little hole things in the frames for the ... doorknobs to latch into or whatever IDK WHATEVER. point is, we keep walking around and finding bunk shit that our douche landlord said he'd fix but then was like eh it works good enough so whatever. lol here's a good one - we asked him to change the locks for us, right, and he does that.. but only for the front door, not the back. so we can't use our back door hahaha.

i can get over this shit, alright. but there is one thing that drove me up the wall. our friend theresa came into a living situation where the friend she's staying with turned out to be really allergic to her cat, so cat needs a new home, we volunteer, and there you go, we have this AWESOME HELLA CUTE KITTY OMG I LOVE HER anyway. so we get this cat after we sign the lease. we figure no big deal, the ad on craigslist said cats and dogs were ok. so we call landlord and we're like hey we got this cat, can we pay a deposit and shit, and he flips shit and tells us no, we can't have a cat, no fucking way, we should've told him before we signed the lease, blah blah blah, and kevin tries to tell him that we didn't even know we were going to be getting a cat when we signed it and then he was saying that it could fuck the place up (and ok, this place isn't exactly high fucking quality - the hardwood is dirty and fucked up, the walls are all horribly painted, etc etc real old building with "original" shit that stopped being worth shit years ago. point is, the cat has nothing here it COULD fuck up) and that we wouldn't know how to take care of a cat because we'd only had it for a minute and WHATEVER OK. THEN. he comes back and is like ok i talked to my partner and he said he might consider it if you paid a 200 dollar deposit and an extra fifty bucks a month. and we're like fuck you bitch, we paid six months up front, suck my dick, etc. well. not really.

instead we just decided to keep the damn cat because she's the coolest fucking cat on the planet and we love her and no shitty landlord is gonna tell us what we can and can't do when we're handing him thousands of dollars, especially when he hasn't done shit for us and obviously isn't planning on doing anything except the absolute minimal amount of work possible. also, the landlord said he's like handing over management of the place over to this company, which we checked out and assessed that they weren't going to invest any money or time where they didn't have to so we were pretty much on our own. i mean, landlord said a maintenance guy was gonna come by, and we called (no answer) and left a message asking when, and he never even called us back. so... we got the privacy and the "leave us the fuck alone and don't dick around our shit" we wanted.. but the rest is going to be up to us. but fuck it, it'll be fun, and we're gonna be here at least for the next year. kevin's family consists mostly of carpenters and electricians and plumbers and what have you - all union people - and they'll help us out if and when we need them. and i get to paint! which i am god damn well going to, holy shit do i have awesome plans for this apartment

honestly we both really love the place. it's huge, it's got lots of character, the location kicks mega ass.. yeah, we have a lot of cleaning and fixing up to do, but it'll be fun i bet. i've already had a lot of fun doing things like putting the groceries away and picking out a little shower shelf thing from target. we went through the process that everyone goes through in realizing that oh, we need to buy hella shit that we forgot we needed like paper towels and pots and pans and toothpaste and a broom and windex and on and on and on. but it was a lot of fun picking out our own choices on these sorts of things. since kevin was paying for them, we bought almost all organic groceries. he went the cheap route on frozen pizzas and vegetable oil lol. i made a cheese and pepper pizza tonight. we don't have a microwave and he refuses to buy one so i've been trying to figure out what i can cook easily using a stove/oven. he wants to get a toaster oven which would make things at least a bit easier. our oven's pretty.. well it's seen better days.

damn i'm so happy we can pick up someone's internet here. when eva tried it before in the bedroom with bryant's computer she didn't get a signal... but like two groups of people just moved into this building i think so it might be one of themmmm. wheeee

we're two blocks from tower grove park, which is huge and beautiful and has trees from all over the world. and attached to the park is the missouri botanical gardens which god damn kicks so much ass. eva lives just down the street and bryant/elizabeth/buddy are more or less our neighbors. the gellatoria, a gellato place that eva works at, is two blocks away - awesome italian ice cream and coffee mmmmmm. also right around the corner is a bar we like that plays some cool music and seems to host an interesting crowd.

i got fired from my bathfitter temp job for sitting down but oh well. fuck them, you can't expect someone to stand in one place for six hours in uncomfortable shoes three feet away from a bench and not fucking take a break for a minute. they had a SPY WATCHING ME. i didn't sit until my last day, until i had 2 hours left to go. CURSES. but yeah, oh well, that job sucked but i managed to pull some money out of it. next job is temping at some... company doing data entry from 8-5 for 11 bucks an hour for a few days. temp work is alright and really simple and pays great but it's not stable.. i need a stable source of income. i'm trying to get a bunch of money together so i can buy all my friends christmas presents this year. my aunt's giving us a tree. i'm really excited about putting it up and i wanna put presents under it! i have ideas for kevin already, and i'm gonna get our cat a real water bowl (she has a food bowl but we're using a tupperware container for water for now). i was gonna get eva a sake` set from asian gifts until she told me she didn't like asian gifts. i told her she was trippin, shittttt. asian gifts kicks ass.

we're having a housewarming party saturday so we're trying to move everything and have it all set up by then. well i am at least. the living room is coming along nicely - we have my couch up here and a bunch of shit .. you know. i'll just end up taking pictures when it's all done so it doesn't matter for now. i'm so happy. i'm feeling pretty good about shit. and i had a really great talk with my brother today. i think i'm gonna stop going on and on about fucking nothing now. but damn i haven't lived with high speed wireless internet in so fucking long I AM JUST OH MAN THIS IS SO NICE
