workin it
| <<-- : 12.17.03 : -->> |
5:01 p.m.last night, my roomate invited me to a holiday/remodeling party for the bar on castro. it was an invitation only party and it was pretty packed. it was kind of posh and i didn't really feel comfortable. but all the drinks were free behind the bar and they had food. and i got to see my cute bartender and he remembered my name. but it was just way too busy to make any sort of conversation, so i stuck to the smoking area.
after i got pretty tossed, i left and headed down the street and was drawn to the immensely cute punk kids and punk music radiating from the corner. it turns out that this bar, harvey's, was having live punk bands including a CD release party for this group called, riot-a-go-go. i was buzzin and i had to check it out. once inside, a sense of relief washed over me. of course there were more chicks than boys there, and it seemed like more of a lesbian/straight crowd, i still felt in my element. i proceeded to rock out and make conversation with the people around me.
shortly after, i proceeded two doors down to badlands and danced to really bad dance music. i felt like dancing all night, and it was next to impossible to dance in the crowded space of the bar on castro. after a couple songs at badlands, i went back to the bar. the crowd was less and they were playing some hip hop. so i hit the dance floor and started freaking some really hot black dude. he had his shirt off and i couldn't help myself. then i was caught from behind by his latino boyfriend and the two started to molest me. (which i didn't really oppose.) somehow this other guy, todd, got into the mix. todd and i went out for smoke and i met his two really cool lesbian friends. once back inside, i attempted to dance some more but found myself getting really sick. i layed down on the benches inside, but the bouncer guy requested i go outside to get some fresh air. i sat down outside and todd brought me to get some pizza. he pretty much took care of my sloppy drunk ass until i sobered up a little and my roomate got off work to take me home.
this morning was a bitch to get up. i was suppose to be at davemarr's at 9 so we could head out to watch the return of the king. i ended up being half an hour late. we got to the theater and i was verbally accosted by this dick when i switched lines at the snack counter. dave and i were waiting in the two lines so that if one of us were to get to the counter first, the other could cross over. so i crossed over to dave's line because his line was going faster. and apparently this guy felt i was cutting in front of him. he had a real problem with it. said that you can't wait in two lines like that. i wanted to say shit, but i didn't want to continue any discussion with him. i don't feel like i had to explain myself. i was extremely pissed off. but i tried to keep my inner cool. i hate confrontations. he was really condescending. it wasn't cool. i was hungover, hungry, and tired.
the movie rocked though. i enjoyed it. so much war and death though. i love the fantasy of it. i just don't realize how much violence i enjoy on television and movies now. dave says i'm a big girly girl when it comes to the gore and stuff, just cuz i told him that i cringe at the sight of fingers and limbs being cut off or eyes being poked in. all that gore just makes me cringe. i'll watch it. but i'll watch in horror and curiosity. more like horrified curiosity and disgust. i did enjoy the movie though. i really want to read the books now.
after the movie, dave needed to do some shopping. so i went with him to bed bath and beyond and trader joe's. i finally got some new pillows and bedsheets. i think that bed bath and beyond is gonna be my new favorite store. there's so much shit! i love it!
on the way there, i get a call from my recruiter from that temp agency. she says that she already has another job lined up for me. i'm not sure if it's a temp, or if it's a permanent position. she didn't really say too much details. but i'll ask her later. the important thing is that it's a receptionist position for this software company in the city! rock! and when i got home, i had a message from this guy from a starbucks. he got my application from the store i turned mine in, and he wants me to come in for an interview! so i'm pretty stoked! i just might have to go in for that interview. i think it would be pretty beneficial to work two jobs. that is, if i can make the schedules work. plus... starbucks.. we're talkin free coffee, free mugs (oh wait, gotta watch the karma... shit.) but i think i'll enjoy my partner discount. you never really know how much those discounts help out til you're on your own again.
anyway. gotta go. i gots to meditate tonight.
