Jai'bagoine
Whether or not that is how it is spelled, I can tell you not.
I absolutely love the yoga instructor. I can't remember her name, but she's so nice- she gave me the trivia question, even though I didn't know it. So I had $.10 off my mocha and scone this morning. She's so nice, she always remembers me. And she inspired me to be a dacaf person. Now, if only I could get off ice cream.
Speaking of which, I went to Dairy Queen today, becuase I wanted to, and I could. And this annoying guy working spent like 238013838 hours talking to the lady ahead of me about how bush rocks and such. And she was like, "der" and he was pretty much republican flirting with her, and she had her daughter (or granddaughter?) with her, and he was like, "what kind of ice cream do you like?" and the lady was randomly like, "GW likes parilines and Cream" and the little girl was like, "what kind of ice cream does JFK like?" and he was like "I bet he changes his mind every day because he is a flip flopper"
Honestly. I could have killed all of them right then and there. All I wanted was a stupid blizzard, not exposure to the mind warping of today's youth.
So then I worked at Malley's. Katie and Ryan worked with me tonight, so naturally it was fun. Right off the bat, we had a party of 25. How much did we earn in tips from that? oh, yeah... 3 dollars. Go to hell. A bit later these other people came in, and they had a to go order, and there was only two of them, and I made the order, and they tipped us 3 dollars. Come on. that's so disporportionate. Thanks to the two people, and no thanks to the 25.
Somehow, that situation reminds me of the electoral college.
Anyway. Katie and I did some matrix-worthy fighting.
And elections are nearly over! Finally some peace.

Dem For a Day
I went to see John Kerry speak tonight with Caitlin and Shannon. I thought it to be vair interesting and insightful.
There were a bunch of people before him that got to speak. I didn't listen much to them because this wierdo was invading my personal space in an unecessary manner next to me and I was complaining aloud about it (so that the people in front of me were amused) and he wasn't getting the hint.
Fortunately, he left prior to the concerty part. We saw Bruce Springstein, aka "the boss" ( they made a lot of jokes about that, and how JFK would be the "next boss" oh, ho ho ho, where do they get their material?) play, and it was okay, only he never played "Born in the USA". But it was still kinda cool. Shannon definately has an old man crush on him.
Anyway, so then Kerry spoke. He was pretty good and all, being all "go america, Bush sucks" and the usual political banter. He seemed kind of cool though unnatural- like he wasn't really used to talking to a bunch of people. I do, however, admire his valiance at speaking in front of the huge crowd that was there.
I personally, don't think that either candidate will advance the "american way of life" all that far. I mean, both have "good ideas", but that's all they are- ideas. Without senate approval and the such, it really doesn't matter a whole lot. And then half of it is false anyway. But what really annoys me are people like my mother who vote for one guy (bush, if you're wondering) just because they "don't like" the other guy (kerry). At least she should get a decent reason. I mean, fine if you've studied both policies and decided on bush (like I said, I'm non-partial) but it's so stupid when people "don't trust kerry" or "just want to get rid of bush". Granted, even if you've studied up on what they (or their parties) have said, that doesn't mean they'll carry on with it, but at least know their ideas, hear out their PR guys. Getting informed is the only way to make a non-ignorant decision. If you really think about it, it's best if everyone is an independant voter, because it means they are thinking for themselves based on what research they've done. Not just because they "don't like" the other guy. Thank you to theology and government (which gives me both the republican and democratic leniency, respectively) for telling me of this. Maybe next time there's an election, I will actually believe that one candidate might be more useful than another. However, I wouldn't even vote in this one, I think the country's too far gone.
Anyway, so I came home, and mother gave me the Bush speech (which would definately make me anti-Bush, if I didn't remind myself to be objective) and I got irritated and left before I found a way to illegally vote for Kerry just to piss her off.
also, on a side, non political note, we ate at this "Metropolitan grill" place, where they had amrazing pizzas. Also good salad, though the lettuice could have been a bit crisper.
I must now be off to bed.

Happy Bloody Halloween!
Well, today was a waste of a perfectly good Halloween.
I would just like to point out that Halloween is the most awesome holiday ever, and mine was not sufficient as a Halloween day of awesomeness.
I spent from about 10 (or was it nine? damn daylight savings time) until 5 watching TV, reading, and generally moping about, doing nothing (I have mucha tarea, too, oh well) and yelling at my parents to leave me alone. They thought I was mad at someone, but no matter how much I denied them (since I really wasn't, I just wanted some "oh, let's not do anything" time for myself) they persisted, so I was just like, fine, go away.
Then I went to work, where I did manual labour for two hours, and then they released me.
Then I stopped by Kristens, and immediately realised I would have more fun at her house than at Elizabeth's, so I said I'd be back ASAP.
Then I went to Elizabeth's. I walked in the door, and she was visibly stressed. I think the only other person who even noticed me was Big R, who kind of just stared at the 80's get up in a confused manner. Then they were all leaving anyway, and so I kind of walked out into the driveway with them, since I needed to move mi coche, and while out there Dan suddenly noticed me, and got really very confused, and said "whoa, where'd you come from?" This, unfortunately, got the attention of Megan Dever, who came after me and attempted to hug me. I proceeded to elbow her in the general area of the boob and snarl, "what have I told you about toucching me?" and then walk off in a bitchy manner. Well, like Ryan said, at least I'm not one of those girls who pretends to be friends with people that I don't really like. Anyway, so after that, I moved my car out of everyone's way. Very far away. To Kristen's, in fact.
I had a splendid time at Kristen's, though. We watched Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and had an amazing time making fun of it and making jokes that will damn us all to hell. Then there was no ending. And then I came home.
At that leaves me here, with no homework done.
Last night, I hung out with Ali O for the first time in ages, and it was pretty cool. We went to a party in West Park, and I made new friends, and that's always good. I also wound up driving her piece of piss 14 year old car that refuses to turn and such. And the spedometer? Yeah, only goes to 85. That's definately under my highway speed limit.
Superficial people like Elizabeth Hazel are the gayest things to ever hit this side of the Mississippi.
Anyway, people are stressing me out. I love Katie, Kristen, Ryan and Sean. I'm a little worried about the sexual orientation of David. I think Elizabeth Hazel is a self-obsessed faggot. And I think the Megan Dever should stop trying to hug me. And see, that there is care and concern. Because if she doesn't stop, I might hurt her. And if that's not looking out for her well-being, then I don't know what is.
Tally fricken ho.
