i dreamt i saw you walking
up a hillside in the snow
casting shadows on the winter sky
as you stood there counting crows
one for sorrow, two for joy,
three for girls, and four for boys,
five for silver, six for gold, and
seven for a secret never to be told

there's a bird that nests inside you
sleeping underneath your skin
when you open up your wings to speak
i wish you'd let me in

Wax, Zoob, Porn and infected tongue rings!

Sunday . . . hhmmmm . . . it was a lot of fun.

After i left work i ran home and changed and met My Rabid Abby and Roni at the Palace of Wax and we went puddle jumping while we waited on the boys to show up. Roni and Abby were in jeans, so it took a while for them to dry off, but since i opted for a sweater and leggings with tenny-bops i was fine in about half an hour. You'd think they'd have better air conditioning in a huge building full of wax people, but i'd swear some of those wax peoples were sweating, too, it was so hot in there!

Roni had several issues and was cranky and ill-mannered, so we were obliged to try our best to ignore her and appease her simultaneously. i sincerely doubt i will take her anywhere for a long time. i was so willing to sell her off to a passing stranger or some gypsies most of the day. Abby was a huge help and The Shy Crackbaby and Not-a-Chump were such angels.

We retired to Denny's for a bit of food and endless quantities of beverages so we could smoke and talk.

Roni spent most of that time under the table opposite us being mad at me for trying to keep her in line. She turned into Miss Sweetness and Light as soon as we left and i was so exhausted by her horrid behavior and dealing with T.M.I.M. at work that we read a chapter to calm down and had a talk about how the way she acted when we were out was probably why the kids at school don't like her, and how she needs to not take everything so personally and STOP FUCKING WHINING! Ok, so i didn't put it exactly like that but i wanted to stand on a table and YELL it.

i don't know why i have been so stressed lately. i have noticed that i grip the steering wheel like i'm dying when i drive and i have a bad headache all the time now. i am smoking again. Having trouble sleeping. Not hungry. Not really all that interested in anything but being left alone with music and a computer. Almost everyone i see makes me cringe and want to hide. The 'YAY!' list is getting shorter every day. i want to drop out of life and go away. i want to forget.

i need to shut up.

All in all it was a lovely evening and i thoroughly enjoyed the charming company and all i can say is:

"Step AWAY from the ZOOBS!"

There was some awful hilarious pornographic funnies going on with the Zoobs at our table! It was just like stepping out of my horrid mood except for the Roni part . . . thanks so much guys! You all rawk!
