i dont like when people insinuate...

last night i was sitting at my computer bored taking photos talking online doing a bunch nonsense.. when i stopped to upload my photos i placed my lap top on my lap to open iphoto and i realized my power cord was super hot. i had just plugged it in maybe 5 mins prior so i thought it was odd.. it was really really hot so i decided maybe it was best to unplug it since it seemed to be over heating. i went to take it out and the cord melted and broke right off, with the magnetic tip still plugged in. i had to remove the tip still and it was burning hot with stringy things coming out of it.. im thinking this isnt safe.. this could catch fire, what the hell... so after this i was thinking was this my computer or the cord. so i made an appointment today to go to the mac store to get it checked out... 

the guy at the mac store takes one look at it and says at this point you need to buy a new power cord.. dah i knew that... and then he says he doesnt think it burned, it would be brown. i tell him the whole story and say why would i make this up. he tells me he doesnt think it will be covered and he doesnt think it over heated but he will bring it in the back and get a second opinion. i even show him how it looks melted...he comes back and tells me his manager doesnt think it was burned either but they will replace the cord anyway... i dont like that he insinuated that i was lying or something. i mean whateves there was clearly no way i was paying for something i didnt do? and they did replace it but ... ok it doesnt matter case closed..

my ex beau just imed me and asked me how it went and i told him how they didnt believe me and they gave me a new one anyway and he asked if i flashed them my boobies.. ha.. that's funny.  i replied yes of course that's how things get done...

last night before this stupid power cord thing i was on the grizzly bear blog. it's this band i adore and i found some good music on there. they always post good stuff.  http://grizzly-bear.net/blog/ .... not sure if that link is clickable i cant figure out how to copy words into this thing for some reason. i like this deerhunter song they have one on there it's called fluorescent grey. 

speaking of grey i want to paint my room grey. all this not working is proving to be boring and not very productive i've been on some awesome interviews that apparently meant nothing.. which sucks. 

fun times all around...

this morning i woke up at oren's ... or perhaps i cant say woke up seeing how i didnt fall asleep till it was almost time to wake up. his sublet is this amazing apartment with all these windows with natural light... but this girl has these sheer white curtains that dont really keep any of the light out, which is fine but when you havent slept it doesnt help the cause. but in any event i couldnt sleep late i had things to do like get my a drawing desk that my friend said i could have. and go to breakfast with oren before heading home and back into the city for an interview. then plans with jason face.

we went to egg again this time i got something really good. somehow i talked oren into splitting something with me. im really into splitting food.. he got an omelet that was amazing and i got french toast that wasnt bad either, im sold. im all about second chances...

i have kind of an awkward body.... i have to stop taking pictures of myself when oren gets ready...i just get slightly bored...

i drove home and there was soo much traffic although in this photo there was none... weird. took me way longer then normal...

headed back into the city for an interview id rather not talk about and then met up with jason at rockefeller center... then we walked to the west village and ate some french food... on the way there we saw all these restaurants that looked really good like this one here... thaiselect it doesnt look like much in this photo but it looked really cool in the flesh... me and jason are walking and i see all these roses in the store window fronts and im like what's with all these roses, their everywhere... and i laugh as i realize it's almost valentines day... not a holiday i really think about much.. hopefully i will be married with 10 kids by valentines day...oh and have a huge diamond ring because that's real happiness... kids marriage diamonds... hello...

so me and jasin... went to this french restaurant and i talked him into doing a share with the food.. like i said i like that... half of this/ half of that... mmmm.... he got this amazing salmon sandwich that i love there and i got this chicken dish that was pretty darn good as well. followed up by chocolate cake. i dont do well with telling myself no more dairy. esp since oren's omelet that he nicely shared with me this morning had cheese in it... mmm mmm cheese... 

i swear this place looked like good eats...

i had to take the photo... jason loves dairy!

on my way home trying not to fall asleep... i had like no sleep last night.

looking for something in my bag, i emptied it all over my bed amongst other junk that was there when i got home for oren's earlier... i soo didnt want to clear off my bed...eek

this freaking drawing is really hard.....

mmmm chocolate cake and walking around .....

say goodbye to chocolate

im sitting here for the 3rd week in a row eating a twix bar thinking maybe this should be my last for a bit... luckily something was wrong with this twix bar so it made it easier to say good bye at least for tonight... i was just talking to a friend about skin care and she was saying something about dairy being bad. which i thought was funny because my friend jason doesnt do dairy. he's told me that he feels like he can breath now because his sinuses are really clear and his skin is really clear. it is i would eat cheese off it.

im lactose intolerant so it would be awesome to cut milk products from my diet, i would probably feel a lot better... but i mean giving up cheese.... omg i dont think i can do it... everything taste better with cheese even your mom...  how do vegans do it. i want to be a vegan. vegans are hot, they have that whole malnutrition look going for them. or people who only eat raw food. those people look amazing and age beautifully. maybe if i eat a twix bar and dont cook it i will come close to looking like them... oh wait im giving up chocolate .... and im already pretty skinny naturally so i suppose if i gave up meat and dairy it might get scary... hmm... or rather i might get scary looking...

i was just asked what i do when im up this late besides prowl the internet... perhaps i should do something more productive then write this blog at this very moment... and watching this model show on bravo. they look like they are having soo much fun. makes the rest of us wish we could do that too .... ok maybe i cant speak for everyone but it looks like fun. wearing pretty clothing and having your hair did... wow i totally missed the beginning of this show they posed naked for an art class haha... that's funny. i need to see this from the beginning. dammit some other bad show is on instead.... sometimes i can catch the beginning after the show is over  because they play it back to back... it's nice it's like watching it backwards. 

i forgot i could do something creative...

today i spent doing paper work i was behind on for unemployment, looking for work, and i also worked on this drawing i started the other day.... i had forgotten that i was even able to draw. i have also forgotten that if you keep at something you can actually succeed... ok so the drawing isnt much ... but it's coming along im pretty happy about it.  words to live by you never know unless you try.... and if you have to keep at it. ha... ok im being a total fruit but for serious...

colin farrell

last night i hung out with oren at his new sublet. today we headed into the city so i could get some erasers so i cant give the excuse of i have no erasers and i cant draw without one... on the way  i found this place that sells the brand of prescription glasses called ic berlin  ive been really wanting since i saw them in seattle in this store called market optical. i was soo excited. unfortunately they dont sell the style that i wanted, but i can put a down payment on them and they will order them and if i dont like them they give me back my money... 

so we leave the glasses store and start heading down the block and im all in my head thinking about the glasses when oren says that was funny... and im like what? apparently colin farrell brushed past me and i hadnt even noticed. oh well.... 

we wound up bumping into a friend of oren's who wanted to go see the kittens at petco. they were very cute but pretty much all sleeping, but that's what cats do... then we went to this place i think it was called kates joint... it was this vegan place. amazing food.... yum, but filthy ... i mean, it was really dirty there and the bathroom was even dirtier. the bathroom looked like a bathroom in a hipster bar or something it was soo gross... but the food was soo good i kinda forgot that it wasnt that clean there... it's funny some of the dirtiest run down looking places sometimes have the best food. 

me being a weirdo taking a photo of myself...

feet.... whose? im not sure?

kitty

this kitty had swollen nipples... apparently she just had kittens and they sold them all to the devil... i mean to some nice person who likes kittens. 

last night out and about at an old party in a new location...

last night was tons of fun with alex.. i heart that betch... not much to write here soo here are some photos..and a super cute short video of alex being excited over throwing stuff into this puddle. i need to learn how to edit video i may have some gems if i cut it right.... maybe not... 

yesterday morning i saw a man washing his car in the rain it was quite a site to see, maybe it's not a bad idea. if i had a car maybe i'd be out there too.

i went on the oddest interview yesterday as well. it was poring out and my umbrella broke and by the time i got there i was soaking wet and pretty disheveled ... it was in this building that had all law firms i wasnt sure what this place was, so i started to think maybe its a law firm. i get up to the 9th floor walk down this hallway and there it is.. the door was made out of wood and there was a little gold plaque with the name of the place on it. i go in and there is this bullet proof glass window with an opening to put stuff in. two young people were sitting at desk behind it. like possible an indian girl and this asian kid, both are sorting through boxes of jewelry. there is  another door just in front of me. so i tell them who im and who im there to see and that i was there for an interview and they buzz me through the second door. so im thinking what is this. weird. inside there are all these desks with all these different young people of all ethnicities. there are no computers or anything resembling a normal office setting besides all the desks. everyone has boxes of jewelry. so im told to go in this room that has a desk with nothing on it and a girl is sitting there and she has a box full of rings im really not sure what she was doing just looked like she was going through the box. oh yeah and the room smells like pancake syrup or something it's kinda gross...so i ask her what they do there and she tells me they sell fine jewelry. a young guy comes in and he asks me to give him my resume. not even hey do you have a copy, but give me a copy of your resume. then he asks me if i would be ok with working in an office with only one or two other people because they are opening another office down the hallway. he asks me if im good with excel. which i know excel and could lie at this point but im thinking why this job seems weird. so i say i barely know it.  and when he says the job is a lot of posting pictures on excel instead of just listening i say " you can post pictures on excel?" i try to ask him if he they have health insurance and he nods and goes we have all that and changes the subject back to more questions he had for me. he's like so how are you with working over time. i tell him "im ok with it as long as im getting paid for my time, how late are we talking here?....i have to go enough of this story the point is it was an odd situation. ;)

night started off with a jump start

haha....dont kill me alex for posting this but...omg it's funny... your invisalign is too funny and soo is that guy behind us...and the way the photo looks all steamy my god...

alex and oren... man oren's hair is amazing...

i kinda didnt get her head in this shot but it works for me... i think there is a music video like this but cant remember which one... ( but she looks like an alien or something it's great)

nico gave alex this to take a picture with and i think it worked quite well with her and her get up..

alex was cold what a baby...

dont give me that look...

me ready to jump, looking like im about to give spirit fingers...

creepy i know... but i had to post it

alex is destructive!

oh wow this video is really dark... oh well... enjoy!

the teenagers were aweful.....

wednesday i spent all day having a meegraine... i was completely devoted to it.. it was the suck, a day wasted on pain and paranoia . excedrin will do this to me i spent the whole day with varied stages of craziness. ended up not falling asleep till around 7am thursday only to be awaked by our cleaning woman justina around 12.... she was running water in the bathroom for about a half an hour then proceeded to make more noise with a vacuum cleaner outside my door. i must seem like such a loser to her sleeping on a weekday, no job.

i spent thursday drawing, eating, watching bad tv and thinking over all the strange thoughts that went through my head of wednesday, as a result of taking excedrin. when i take excedrin i become exceedingly paranoid and crazy it's not a good. i think i already said this but it needs to be said...shrug..

around 9:30pm i got to oren's. he tells me he is really dizzy and acts really odd for about a half an hour. it was really cute. ha... hopefully he wont be mad that im writing about him.  so after a couple of hours of being bed dwellers we head out to hiro. i've always wanted to go there it looks soo pretty in photos. and this band called the teenagers was playing. i mean i only like one of the their songs but i thought it might be fun. shrug.  homecoming is the song i like by the way if anyone cares. we get there and it's really pretty ... makes me wish we came for something else. there are paper lanterns everywhere. it's amazing i wouldnt want to spoil it with my meager words. but there is this huge disco bal,l the biggest one i've ever seen hanging from the ceiling which i found to be soo out of place with the whole theme of the place. 

so the teenagers come on ...they are really cute. like when the lead singer says thankyou and how he is excited to be there. very cute in his accent. but this band was aweful live. perhaps it was the acoustics.. perhaps it was the band themselves. perhaps it was both, i dont know but it was pretty aweful and i felt bad for dragging oren out. especially when it was pretty nice to be in bed with him. ;), in the warmth of an apartment. 

this one is oren... i wanted to take his picture and some strangers got in the photo with him and i neglected to tell him and had a nice laugh about it... he looks soo adorable.. 

me and oren taken by one of the silly guys in the last photo...perhaps not the best photo but ehh there will be others....

this morning me and oren went to a place called egg...oren really likes this place. and apparently so do a lot of people. last time we went there was a 45 min wait with a line out the door  and according to oren they say 45mins but they mean an hour or more... shrug.. i thought the food was pretty simple. i like a variety of tastes in my food. but oren likes the simplicity of it... to each their own...

here oren is enjoying his coffee... hey oren "enjoy"
