from destructive urges reason emerges

So underscore told me to blog, so here it is. Today there was a hornet/wasp in my computer room that scared me. I screamed and ran out of the room. I re-appeared with raid in hand to defeat my foe. It was nowhere in sight. So I sprayed my weapon and shut the door like the brave person I am. 10 minutes later I found my enemy crawling on my carpet. I sprayed him til he died. I did a victory dance, took a picture and cleaned him up. In order not to go crazy from the spray I opened up my window and turned on my fan. It's such a beautiful day today. Perfect for visits to city park. But instead what am I doing? Sitting inside. But sometime today I will goto city park.

Song for today:
"this is not the aesthetic" -the lapse

Movie for today:
fight club. "you've met me at a very strange time in my life"

you look tired.

So in the grand tradition of my saturday nights I just decided to go the mall. I had strange conversation with the girl at the cajun grill about where I work and how much hotels are in europe. I didn't want to discuss work on a saturday and just skirted around the issue by asking her questions. I'm so glad my food didn't take 20 minutes to make. I went into bath and body works to pick out a wallflower because they were selling each for $6 when it normally goes for $12.50. They're all so perky there and ask for 5 times if you need help. The lady there said I looked tired. So I must have looked like crap or something, cos I didn't do anything tiring all day. I did pick out mango mandarin. That smell rules. I wish weekends didn't go by so fast. :(

Song of the day:
Anna Oxygen "spectacle"

changing watches=disaster


So, my watch I've had forever's battery is dieing, so I had to switch to an auxillary watch today. My watch doesn't have gold, but silver...silver is so much cooler. It really messed things up for me. I couldn't get to sleep last night and it took an hour and 50 minutes to get to work today due to a badddddd accident in Frederick.

FREDERICK, MD- Two people are dead after a serious accident on South Mountain Rest Area off Interstate 70 in Frederick.Maryland State Police said it happened at about 3:30 a.m. today when a pickup truck slammed into a tractor trailer parked on the shoulder of a rest stop. The car's driver and passenger died. Police have not confirmed their identities. As of this morning, the truck is lodged underneath the trailer. The driver of the tractor trailer is okay. He was sleeping in a bunk bed at the time. The right hand lane of the roadway is still closed, but Interstate 70 East is open to traffic. We will continue to follow this developing story.


So I got to work late, and my day just sucked from there on. I guess one good thing that came out of today was that I found out Panera is coming to Hagerstown!! It's going to be right near the borders, just a few miles from me. That is exciting news.

free borf


I guess I'm getting the rain that everyone was talking about earlier in the day. Well, good thing I didn't water my flowers earlier cos I would felt like an idiot. So in my quest to find neat places around here I went to shops in historic downtown frederick. brookay gave me this page in lucky about shopping in frederick so I went to some of those stores. The only stores I bought something from was Le Savon( a place that makes its own soap) and this small Italian food place. It was a nice walk though. I managed to make my way to francis scott key mall and went to panera bread. I love panera bread's half sandwich half salad thing. I wish there was one in hagerstown!! I finally spotted borf...well not really, I guess it was someone wanting borf to be freed.
On my way home from work on friday this lady in an suv decided to cut me off on 70. Her license plate said "Napalm" that is kinda weird, and scary. Man it sucks when yer scratching yer leg and then all the sudden it feels just a little too good and you realize its a mosquito bite...damn them!

my flowers!

I guess today was like every other day. Today I got to work and it was warmer in there that usual. I was wearing a 3/4 sleeve with a cardigan and I felt pretty nice in there to me. Everyone else was sweating up a storm. They were like...omg why are you wearing that sweater?? Are you crazy? Yep, that's me. I was sad to see the a/c come back on cos then I was cold the rest of day. So, part two of my garden growing. The flowers under the deck seem to be doing really well! They're like my children...ok maybe that's stretching it. Anyways, I had bought the flowers at a reduced price from Home Depot cos they were dying. I'm so glad that I rescued them from death, maybe thats being dramatic. But they're so cute. It makes me wish that summer lasts longer. Maybe I'll keep some inside plants during the winter...I wonder how that works. I should investigate that.

Song of the day:
"Video game heart" by all girl summer fun band

Movie I'll be falling asleep to tonight:
(Same as before) "Singles"

Road of the day:
Eastern Ave- cos it takes forever going home this way. I should just cut through the city like I do in the am.

grrrrrrowing



oh my tomato plants are just growing unbelievably. I can remember when they were just little plants, and now they're growing fruit. Yes tomatos are fruit. I think that I might pick one of the tomatoes that is ripe. It's probably best to do that before any pesky animal or insect decides to. Hopefully my little cherry tomatoes will be yumtastic. Today was kind of uneventful. Work kind of sucked since some people lied to me(not co-workers). Ah yes, the joys of working where I work ;o)
So my latest obession on the internet is(drumroll): http://www.dropkickthefaint.com it's so dumb, but oh so amusing. ive gotten like 12,000 points playing that game. Last night before I posted my blog I found this really interesting blog. It's got a lot of cool artwork. I wish I was creative like that.

Song I'm currently listening to:
Say Hi to your Mom: "Super"
Movie I'll be falling asleep to tonight:
"Singles"

Interesting.... I'll get calls from my mother and her being confused on the other end expecting to reach someone else..."oh I didn't mean to call you"

Repetitive Monotonous

So today...in the great tradition of driving to work, I was on dual highway passing sheetz and saw this man driving a van going the wrong way on the road. I was like wow, this man has got to be drunk. It was really quite amusing. So where we park at work there are these plum trees on the island. There was this chick in a truck who was picking the plums off the tree. I guess maybe it doesnt seem funny out of context, but it was damn funny to me and my coworkers.
