It's All Good

Since my last post was so depressing, I decided to make some lists of things I do actually like about myself and others. But I like myself the most. Ha.

What I Like About Myself:
1. I have very pretty nails
2. How much self-control I do possess
3. That I am okay on my own, need no one to "complete me"
4. I am easily entertained, and rarely bored
5. How good I look with any hair color
6. My dorky sense of humor
7. My (sometimes) angelic voice

What I Like About Others:
1. When they throw out a random compliment and it makes my day better
2. When they are foul mouthed and bitchy in a good way
3. How open and honest they can be, letting me into their world
4. Their little acts of kindness
5. The unexpected thing you have in common with strangers
6. When they are exactly themselves and nothing else with no pretense
7. How resilient their hearts are

So you see, I'm not all bitter and jaded. It's just that sometimes I hate everything/one and sometimes I don't. Hope that cleared things up...but really, whatever.

Sick Of It All

Sometimes my horoscope is oddly accurate. Today is one of those days. It is 7a.m. and I've already been pissier than I should with my boss, and said far too much of what I actually think. Also there's some other shit on my mind that I don't feel like getting into. But here are some lists.

Things I hate about myself:
1. How I nearly cry every time I'm frustrated.
2. How I make up these intricate check/balance systems that no one else follows, because why should they? I'm a crazy person.
3. How easily I become overwhelmed
4. How personally I can take things

Things I hate about other people:
1. How they assume I'm in a bad mood just because I'm actually saying what's on my mind
2. How I'm not given the same consideration I give them
3. How their problems are somehow more valid than mine
4. How quickly they forget

I guess I'm done, I just needed a rant. I'm just sick of work and pretty much everything else in my life. I'm not sure if this is just a bad day or if this is just me. Whatever. I'm going to catch up on some Dexter and then have a nap.

Warped Tour 2013 - Listing

It's probably pretty sad that I'm 25 and this will be the first time I'm going to Warped. I'm just generally not that big into larger concerts. Whatever. I'm pretty psyched right now, so obviously I've been making lists like a motherfucker.

Bands To See:
1. Reel Big Fish
2. Motion City Soundtrack
3. Hawthorne Heights
4. Story of the Year

...and whatever else I catch, because apparently I am so out of touch with modern "punk" that I recognize nearly none of the band's names. Sadly many of the bands I would like to see (Bowling For Soup, The Ataris, 3OH!3) are not playing on the 21st. Big frown.

Shit To Bring:
1. Ticket!
2. Water Bottle
3. Cash/ID
4. Fully Charged Phone
5. Sunscreen
6. SPF Lip Balm
7. Sunglasses
8. Hair-tie
9. Snacks
10. Sharpie
11. Hand Wipes/Tissues
12. Change of clothes (for later)

What To Wear:
1. Chucks
2. Lightweight Clothing
3. Nothing Valuable
4. Minimal Make-up

Hopefully I remember my phone this time and will post some pics later. Also need to bone up on some punk/emo. I'll make a mix tape soonish with the bands that will be there. Thank you, Concert Junkies for the survival guide-age that I've based my own lists upon.

Fun-Sucker

Okay, so July is going to be mildly busy for me. I'm going to Chicago on the 13th to meet up with my Mommy and estranged younger brother. Then the 21st I am hopefully going to Warped Tour in Minnesota. Have to buy my ticket soon, just hoping nothing comes up, like work or Floyd blowing up or some shit. Then Sammi will be back the last weekend of July! Her mommy is having a retirement party. I'm just writing this all here so I won't forget.

Side note: I am a bit of a freak because I fucking hate traveling. I hate driving, I hate new places, I hate hotels, and just generally not being able to shit in my own goddamn house. But I freaking love planning and packing and travel sized things. What the fuck kind of sense does that make? So, yeah, obviously I've been making lists like a motherfucker. Because I'm prone to anxiety and this is my idea of a good time. Why people never believe me when I tell them I'm a fun-sucker, I do not know.

I'm also the girl who always has a band-aid and McGyver-esque skills with a safety pin. Just so you know.

Then there's work...where a lady we basically just hired, quit today. This past Saturday, she called in "sick". Later that day, Erin (the girl cop) came in asking where she lived b/c she was sighted with some guys in a car throwing rocks at the Hardies??? So then Erin goes to her house, where she finds our 50 year old new hire drunk off her ass, playing hooky. Jodi had to cover her shift (overnight) so, obviously she was a little angry. However, summer is a horrible time to be short of employees, because everyone wants to take vacation (I want to take a vacation) so she was just going to write her up and scold her. But Jodi had a bad feeling about her still, so she calls her today to make sure she's coming in for her shift tonight. Her reply is basically just "NO". What a rude fucking cunt.

So I guess at least I'll have plenty of hours this month. I'm just hoping I still get my weekends off that I asked for. So I can go on vacation and have a couple anxiety attacks. I mean fun, have some fun.

PostSecret Love

Okay, so I've been following PostSecret for something like 10 years now and am still in love with the site and the premise. I've fallen behind on checking it recently, but today I found a few to fall in love with:

Bro, you smell like ass. Take a shower.

*such a beautiful disaster*

Boner.

Sammi?
