Symone

so after my mini vacay-
i left seattle.
bruised, broken, and tired.

i learned a lot of new things about myself,
and even more about you.
my mind changes with the day.
there's always choices to be made.
i choose to not think about what i do.
i choose to not take in the words that come from your mouth.
and i choose to only take things by the minute.



i should be living in the city by july.
i also have another amazing vacation in july!
the sarah's and i are going to sf, la, hollywood, and vegas!
it's going to be so fucking epic!!

this week has sure been a doozy.


i went to see the nekromantix on sunday!


they were fantastic on stage.
off stage, in the bar, is a whole different story.
so a friend and i went to the bar to get some drinks before their set.
of course all the seats were packed with mohawks and spikes and leather jackets. :]
so we stood in the middle of the room.
then randomly some guy walks up and starts talking to us,
asking us if we came to see the nekromantix,
we say yes, and then he goes "that's the drummer right there,"
then to my friend, "you should go pinch his butt!"
we then realized this was some sort of planned set up. haha.
my friend laughs and quickly declines and tells the guy to pinch the drummers butt.
so he does, the drummer turns around, they rough house a bit,
then he walks over and tries to get my friend to pinch his butt himself.
i'm trying so hard not to laugh at his ever-so-obvious attempts to hit on my friend.
then to our surprise he starts to NAME DROP himself!
he talked about how when they played hootanany in so cal,
after they were done everyone left before social distortion,
and how they were about to go on,
and the normal "thanks for coming out guys."
we thought that he couldn't be the real drummer because of how ridiculous he was acting,
and we had no idea what anyone in the band actually looked like.
we decided he was a roadie until another friend of mine asked me why i was being a groupie!
i told her i was totally innocent!  weird, band guys are all alike.

then on tuesday i come to find that there are many changes at my work.
one of my co-workers was promoted to be manager of her own store!
yay for her! nay because she's leaving.
the second one stepped down from her manager position to be part time,
but actually she just wants to quit.
so she'll leave soon.
and because she stepped down,
a woman that i dislike terribly will be taking her spot.
i have a bad past with her and refuse to work with her.
so i call my district manager completely upset no one even told me
because EVERYONE knew we had issues.
he told me that i lacked professionalism
and how disappointed he was that i don't believe in myself,
and that i'm not mature enough to try it out.
i pretty much wanted to tell him to FUCK HIMSELF.
he's never said anything nice to me and is always putting me down.
as my manager he should be encouraging and understanding.
i constantly feel used and taken advantage of in this company.
so by May 4th, 2008 i will be at a new store or not working with them anymore.
i'm not getting stepped on, and i'm not letting go of my pride.

on the other hand i got a sidekick LX. i'm in love.
