Random Stories From Nebraska-ville
previous day's entry April 20, 2004 next day's entry
Hello Hello Hello.  I have a handful of stories for you today, none that have anything to do with each other, and none that really have a point.  But they are stories, and they are about me.

First off:  What is it that makes us make the same mistakes over and over again?  So in my parent�s basement where I�m staying, I have my own room, living room, kitchen, bathroom, and really sucky fuse system.  I realized right away I can�t blow dry my hair and do anything else requiring electricity without blowing a fuse.  I just can�t seem to remember that.  Time and time again I�m leaned over in my bathrobe, drying my hair, when suddenly I�m in the pitch darkness.  Yes it�s annoying, and yes I get pissed off each time, but it still doesn�t make enough of an impact to turn everything else off before I turn on the hair dryer�..until Sunday morning.  It�s 5 am on Sunday, and I had just gotten out of the shower.  It was my nieces first Communion that morning, so I had to get up at the crack and get myself ready in order to have to time to get her all dolled up.  Anyway, so there I am, CNN on the TV, computer online downloading email, vanity light on, blow drying my hair.  Damnit blown fuse.  Whouda guessed it??  But here�s where I really learn my lesson.  5 am, pitch black, hands in the pockets of my robe, open the bathroom door, take one step and WHAM!!  I�ve tripped over the phone cord, flown across the room, and slammed face down into the floor.  Holy Davey I�m so surprised I don�t have rug-burn on my forehead. 

Oh get this great discovery I made the other day.  I was wrapping a gift for my nieces aforementioned First Communion, and saw the best invention ever!!  The wrapping paper had gridlines on the back!!!  Why didn�t someone think of that before???  All you have to do is cut along the lines.  Little things make me so darn happy!!!

I got a weird sign the other day that maybe I should come back to Seattle.  I got in my car, and all my radio preset buttons had switched back to the Seattle stations I had there.  Isn�t that bizarre???  However I couldn�t quite pickup 107.7 The End, so I switched back to the 3 Nebraska stations I get.

And my last rant of the day has a little animosity in it.  Do I really look 15??  Really ???  What is the deal??  I went into a restaurant yesterday to apply for a job (yeah still unemployed) and the lady wasn�t even going to give me an application because you have to be 18 to work there and she didn�t think I was.  Oh I wanted to punch her.  HELLO!!!  I�m 23 freakin years old!!!!!!!  Do people want me to cake on make-up and dress like a whore in order to prove my age??  Please�..

Ok I think that�s all I have for now.  I started work on the movie this weekend, and had a fantastic time, but still can�t process it all enough to write it down.  But let this be said -- so so so many cute boys!!!!

OH one more thing!  So get this!  I called Cingular today to pay my cell bill which should be about 35 bucks...and they said it was $478!!!  So of course I freaked and talked to customer service and get this!  They'd charged my calls from Sidney Nebraska as calls from Sidney Australia!!!!!!!!  How dumb is Cingular????
