i bought this and this. mmm trent.

dearest gorgeous ryan next door got broken into the night before last. i heard all this comotion that scared the shit out of me because i thought it was someone trying to get into my apartment. i was tempted to call the cops, but seriously, this his how the conversation would go:

"austin police department."
"hi, i heard terrible noises outside my apartment. i'm semi-concerned."
"ok, where do you live?"
"off e. riverside, right behind club kaos and the backroom."
":hearty laughter:"
"well, i don't know, it's 2:30 a.m., it's freaky."
"2:30 a.m., when people are leaving the clubs? :continued hearty laughter:"

thusly i did not call.

wednesday afternoon around noon, i get a knock on the door. after much peephole gazing, i figured out it was ryan. "someone broke into my apartment last night. i was wondering if you maybe saw anything?" i just stared gaping. a wave of man you're an asshole swept over me, and i had to explain that i heard it but didn't call the cops. he looked so sad and angry and cute because he wasn't wearing shoes and was going door to door.

i lay back on the futon to watch 3rd rock from the sun (i've become addicted to that show; that's the only reason i stay up til at least 4:30 a.m.) and ended up falling asleep. i awoke to jennifer: "hey!"
"yeah."
"do you work today?"
"yeah."
"it's after four."
"oh fuck."

so that was fun, being half an hour late to work. fun as in god i hope i'm not fired.

i had to do three goddamned lot checks, but two were with this semi-new person i'd never met, jason. he loves trent, therefore i love him. when i finally got off, i taught frank how to make pigs in a blanket my way.

i forgot to turn in my timesheet because my brain has turned to mush. i forgot, literally, in under two minutes to go home and bring it back. bah.

watch this. it's hilarious.

i went to sleep around 4:30 a.m. and naturally woke up at 10:30 a.m. odd. i watched dharma and greg and 3rd rock whilst eating pancakes, then jennifer (who played hookie today) and i went to campus. thankfully the sun wasn't out; i was wearing one of my new skirts that goes right below my knees, and i would have blinded everyone. damn rotisserie chicken-looking people. i went to barnes & nobles while she visited the main building. i got a book for my sister about faeries and fantastic beasts and where to find them, a mum's day card sure to make her cry, a very hungry caterpillar beaded coin purse, and a set of "what's your sign?" hello kitty rummy cards. i don't know what rummy is, but it's hello kitty + astrology. cuteness * infinity. i also got two keith haring postcards. i'm a postcard whore; it's worn off from jennifer. we were being geeks and spent at least half an hour in the kids section. i can't wait til i have kids; then all my urges and interests will have justification. ;) i'm going to the children's museum soon, hopefully this weekend. then as soon after may 25th as possible i'm going to the capital of texas zoo. ahh!

warped tour is july 19th in dallas. wee! i get to drive in dallas!

sorry for that interjection. jennifer and i then went to toys r us so she could get her paycheck, and we ate at schlotzkey's (can't spell it, don't care). theeeen, upon seeing the note we left him about how we're angry and sad and how i plan to avenge him, ryan knocked. jennifer told him about seeing a person in his apartment, and he said that his surround sound, ps2, dvds and cds were stolen. the hardest part? the cds. i totally sympathize. poor poor guy. i told him xbox was better anyway. he said he had been planning on selling the ps2. death to ps2! MGS's on xbox now. muwaha!

bejesus this is long. back to work. ha..work...actually i'll be playing nintendo roms or reading the field guide, the book i got for sarah, if you need me. ;) i've got the best job ever. (ooh piebald).

come to my apartment on sunday night for a multi-birthday celebration!

<3, chels.
