bad hair day, bad day...

man, today has been one BAD day. the morning wasn't so bad, despite the fact that i spent over fifty dollars at walgreens on toiletries (and forgot my $5 off cupon in the car). why do they always have to all run out at the same time??? the pms seemed to kick in midday, right about the time that the customers became difficult. the strawberries are nasty, so now i want a salad...where is there ice cream?...is there a bathroom in this place?... i yelled "jesus" in front of some customers when gerrardo put some ice in my shoe...and then the straw that broke the camel's back: "when i'm offering you money, don't turn it down. this is what a customer looks like, i don't know if you get many customers here..." yep, that was it, and i broke down and cried. right in front of stacey and the german man and his son who were fixing stace's computer. pathetic. ashley reminds me that this is why i'm getting an education. so i don't have to deal with old men who think they can be rude to me because i work behind a counter.
negative tension with trevor later tonight only made things worse...i think it's time for some mindless entertainment. or maybe i should start reading for summer school. yeah right.

saturday night was interesting. trevor and i "bartended" (read: filled cups with ice and made booze available) for a wedding party at aunt margie and uncle gene's in honor of meg's best friend. bumped into some girls i went to high school with; turns out one of them didn't even know meg and i were related...wow, i was a nobody in high school. good thing i turned out okay...another is getting married in maui...and another was going to call me tomorrow. it's monday, and fifty bucks says i don't hear from her until i bump into her again sometime, probably at a downtown bar...

quit the frisbee team. i'm not much of one for quitting, but i'm also not much of one for giving up my (very limited) free summer time for something that's not that fun. i'm just not into competition. when i played ultimate in college, people threw the disc to me because i was their friend. in the league, throwing the disc to me would put the team at risk. but i was quite the valuable player, seeing as i lack cajones (literally...i could have certainly used some figurative ones).

okay, that's enough bitching and moaning. time for some silver lining:
my apartment is coming along.
i have pretty flowers on two tables.
the brita water filter really does make my bad apartment water taste great.
i got to spend the evening cooking for myself and being alone.
i get to look forward to 3 new books and a bunch of body shop stuff coming in the mail soon.
it rained a little, so i don't have to feel guilty about not watering my garden today.
i think that should tide me over...till next time
