By agatha on Monday, August 27, 2001 - 02:52 pm:

    let's see. this should be pretty boring.

    thursday: had a really awful day at work. came home and did who knows what all night. friends dropped off their puppy for two days. got my menstrual cycle.

    friday: took part of the day off, went to take a test for a state job. test took over three hours and was frustratingly hard. went and bought mexican pastries at a bakery near the testing center. went to value village and got myself two dresses and two sweaters, got cleo a guatemalan dress and some funky socks. went home. played with the puppy.

    saturday: mourned the death of simon the dog. did a lot of laundry and dishes. played with the puppy. made four mixed cd's for my friend's graduation party. went to the party. wore goofy plastic lei's.

    sunday: went back to school shopping for stationary supplies with cleo and dave. bought a new ten dollar watch. went to learn hanga (japanese traditional water based woodblock printing) with two friends. friends came down from seattle. went to a secret cafe where the cook was wearing nothing on top but a set of pasties. ate delicious food, knish and borscht and a chocolate orange torte and a spiked rosewater lemonade. went home because cleo had a fever. gave cleo children's tylenol and put her to bed. friends slept over.
    monday: woke up really late. went to work. looked through hundreds of boxes for 18 books, and got really pissed off about it.

    that brings us up to date.

    boring.


By pez on Monday, August 27, 2001 - 03:08 pm:

By pez on Monday, August 27, 2001 - 03:12 pm:

    oh and on aaliyah:

    i was at a karaoke party when i heard. a song of hers was on the list so it was the next one sung.

    one guy at the party said that his brother's girlfriend was her choreographer. "it's weird, y'know? i might get a call in the morning that he's all fucked up because his girlfriend died with aaliyah."

    he said this about four or five times in the course of five, ten minutes.

    i decided that he might be high and went inside to talk to someone else.

    Deciding on whether to make fluke or bluefish for dinner (kitty loves bluefish, so will probably make that again)
    Could get used to writing like this


By Alex on Tuesday, August 28, 2001 - 07:59 pm:

    acordou
    acima do odor sujo
    cheirado sentiu
    realizado mais melhor que eu era um artista, especial se eu deixo para fora a maioria dos detalhes começo
    fascinado com o self decidido não olhar acima as palavras eu não posso
    soletrar encontrei um outro espelho e masturbated, mim sou fascinante
    amei-me continuei compartilhado com você todo, porque eu sou generoso fiz
    exame de um momento
