we might be moving sooner than expected. Chris' school starts the 10th and he has registration on the 7th, but we don't get his student loans until the 17th. So Chris' mom said she'd loan us the money to go and get a place so that he doesn't have to commute. but that means that we'd be leaving in the next week and 1/2 or so. Today i looked up a whole bunch of apartments in NoHo and hopefully there's a good one in there. i wish i had more time down here because it seemed to go by so fast.

i have dedicated today to working on my latest art project...

i have a least 15 to 20 boxes filled with old letters from approximately the 5th grade on. i mean, i kept every scrap of paper anyone gave me pretty much. it's fun to read all of them. right now i'm in the midst of middle school and the shit that was written seemed so important at the time. who liked who and who wanted you to break up with their boyfriend for them. all these people that i haven't talked to in years and here they are spilling they're 7th grade guts to me on paper that i've kept for far too long. well, at least i'm doing stuff with it instead of keeping it in my old room at my mom's house. Angie Fry wrote the best letters. they're all colorful with beautiful handwriting. I have a shit load from Rickie. She and i even traded diaries at one point. i wonder if she still has mine... a few letters from Marty Fenison that made me smile because of all the pictures he would draw on them.

Now Tim Swanson and i loved/hated to write each other back and forth. my middle school love. how funny to look back and realize how much i really liked him but didn't want him to know. i loved playing chase. who didn't? i wonder what all these people are up to...

I had a lot of fun last night. I got to hang out with a whole bunch of new people. Erika and i got to bond and hang out for the first time. that was awesome. as much as i hate going out to E.C. i had a lot of fun so the gas was well worth it.

I'm gaining weight again. not a lot but i can feel my body filling up with unwantedness. i have to start riding my bike again before it come back full throtle. I thought about doing T'ai Chi this morning but since i didn't wake up until 11:00, the morning was short lived. mmmm.... hey Sharon, you should come over and bring your yoga dvds!

i seriously want to shoot my mother-in-law. she's driving me up the fucking wall. so the first time i dyed her hair, i don't know about a month ago, she complained about how you really couldn't tell that it was dyed and it was too light. she was used to being a dark blond. then last night we dyed her hair again and it was "way too dark" so much that she cried, when i had gone maybe a level and 1/2 darker. so this morning i spent 2 1/2 hours putting foil after foil into her god forsaken hair and when she gets out of the bathroom what does she say... i think i'm just going to put the box color over it. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!?!? It looks really good! there's dimension with 3 different colors in it. the HLNB pulled a little warm but not enough to put fucking box dye on. i'm a hair stylist, box dye is the anti-christ which in turn makes her the devil's advocate.
i've always known she was annoying. i mean chris even finds her annoying. granted she's his mom, he would know. but she's pulling shit that i don't think i can handle. I'm going to be so happy when she leaves on friday. only 4 more days and then she's gone for 15 days. doesn't seem long enough. this week better go by faster than it is right now or else i'm going to be out the door every time she walks in it.

My uncle owns a little beach craft plane and flew down to San Diego so that he could take me and my dad on a little flight around East County. We had so much fun(minus the part when i felt queasy). Afterward my dad and i went to the Downtown Cafe and had dinner while listening to live jazz. Then we preceded to go back to the house where i cut his hair and we watched Terminator. i loved today.

well... i got let go. i no longer work at Freedom Salon. Hey, but at least i got my hair done for the last time yesterday. It's really cute. i like it a lot. i kinda knew it was coming so i'm not too let down. It was like one of those easy break ups over the phone. Neil, the owner, kept saying that they were going to keep me until i had to leave for LA. A load of bull shit. Oh well. At least we're getting our deposit back from the apartment.
oh yeah! we moved again. We're living in Chris' mom's house now in the spare bedroom. sleeping on a twin sized bed isn't the best situation but i can handle it for another week or so. Bev leaves on the 10th to go to North Dakota so we'll get her bed once she leaves. The thought of having this house to ourselves for 3 weeks sounds awesome. too bad i wont have a steady income. I'll just have to do hair for the family. I just wish i hadn't cut everyone's hair already. I think I'm going to start doing manicures and pedicures. i need to buy the stuff for it first, though. AH! Money, money, money!
i really want to go camping. i'm not sure where though. Maybe Julian if it's not too hot. Or Lake Jennings. Next Friday, Saturday, and Sunday is the goal. I really want to go out on a little row boat in the middle of the night and just hang out on the lake. sounds like it would be a lot of fun. Who wants to help me plan it?

so i got a new job at this salon called Freedom downtown. i'm going to be working the front desk instead of doing hair. i dont want to build a clientele and then have to leave it again. it's going to be really cool though. i start tomorrow at 10 and work til 6 tuesday through saturday. i dont even have to get up early. awesome!

so for my new job i have to take a drug test. no big deal right? so i went to a smoke shop and got a detox drink blah blah blah. well... i had the test yesterday and it came out deluded because i drank too much water so now i have to take it over again. what a mother fucking bitch!!! i pissed that i had to go and buy another drink so that i can retake it today. this one better be good or else i'm going to either, A. not get the job, or B. sue some people. and to make things worse my wisdom teeth on the top are coming in and i have a canker sore on my tongue that hurts. poop.

We're finally here! this past week has been kind of a blur between getting drunk and setting up our new place. I took Erica(my little sister) to the Aquabats show last night and we had so much fun. we danced our little hearts out and had some good heart to heart talks in the car. I have never been to a better show. Aquabats really know how to make it awesome. i can't wait to see them again!
