happy october! well a few days late, but you get the point.. whatever.

today started off to be a good day... this morning i woke up a little earlier to get to work at a decent time.. but i dillydallied a little and then got a phone call from NICOLE IN ITALY!! yay!!! i was sad because i missed her phone call on friday due to my not getting reception at work. boo.. plus since they changed my desk i don't get any of my phone calls since they haven't transferred the line yet. argh. oh well.. we chatted for 30 minutes while i was supposed to be at work (oops).. but it was nice chatting with her.. she told me how hot her tour guide was, how great the italian men are and how she's whoring it up and down and all around town. just kidding on that last part. as we were getting off the phone i screamed "hook up with some guys!" and she said okay. i expect exciting stories when she comes back :P

i interviewed for this pretty big special effects company and didn't get the job. boo hoo hoo... argh.. i hate this. i feel like it's never going to happen.. i should just give up and work at the gap for the rest of my life. or fine some clerk or cold calling job somewhere. totally unrelated to anything i want to do. how do people make it.. it is even worth. just like that msn article said.. do what you love and you'll starve. blech.

i am stage managing the play again. they called and really needed someone.. and since nothing else is working out right now.. i said okay. it's fun and funny.. you guys should come out and see it (if you're in the LA area).. hopefully everyone will come out. i know i'm not actually in it (on stage/acting etc).. but it would still mean a lot to me if you came. and the show isn't bad.. so there's a plus. i'll post more info later.. or ask me! :)

i don't really follow baseball that well.. but i think it's cool that there's a chance that it could be a "freeway world series" or whatever they call it. dodgers and angels.. yay for so.cal pride! but then it's harder to choose who to root for.. haha.. maybe the one with the cuter team. jk.

friday a bunch of us girls went out for sakura's early birthday celebration in hermosa. it was a lot of fun :) we drank those big fish bowl size buckets of mixed drinks.. and danced a lot. we went to the union cattle for sakura to ride the bull but didn't quite make it all the way to the bull.. oh well.. she promised next time! it was a good time. except when i woke up at 6am feeling like my stomach was going to hurl itself out of my body. oh my.. i felt so horrendous for a good hour. i stood over the toilet and up against a trash can for a good while, as a preemptive measure.. but nothing came out. i forced down some water, and finally managed to get back to sleep and woke up at 9am feeling great. thank god for water :P i was so relieved that i was feeling really good when i woke back up though. went to rehearsal and then to hang out with my sister. whenever i hang out with her now we always go shopping and i always end up spending a TON of money. i'm not in debt, but i'm not saving any money.. but i have lots of cute stuff! hah. we ate at this greek place on 3rd street, which was pretty yummy but pricey.. went back to chill at her place and played a little bit of poker. after losing all my chips i went over to venice to celebrate luz/vi's birthday! i don't see her all that often because she's in santa barbara now.. mostly just for birthdays.. but it was fun hanging out with her and her lifeguarding friends :) the sucky part is that i didn't notice the parking lot sign that said no parking from 11pm-5am. funny thing is that i parked in that lot at 11:48.. shouldn't they close it or something? damn.. that's a $45 fee for being a dumbass.

sunday i napped, ate, shopped a little, browsed the sunday ads and went to tech rehearsal. since i came into the show a lot later, it's harder to adjust because i don't know everything so well. i'm losing a night of tech for softball too.. i hope wednesday's tech isn't too painful. the booth is different too and a little spread out, and there's a lot more light cues than i anticipated.. i hope i can pull them all off. i guess that's my job right? we'll see how it goes tonight... i'm going up to test some stuff out and then coming back in time for the game. i hope we don't lose, but i think we're playing a really good team again. i've lost a lot of confidence in my abilities as a pitcher, and i keep having really awful flashes of me getting hit in the face/head and going blind/getting knocked out/brain damage/dying. that doesn't help too much. i gotta get over the hump.

it's almost halloween. almost a year since i've had this temp job. it's funny how so many things can change in a year... and yet some other things don't. oh well.. life is change huh? haha.. stupid ICON motivational speaker.. it's so cheesy.. but so memorable. i'm hungry.. and i want to go home to sleep. anyone want to be my sugar daddy?
