I have a Tumblr now.

I think I'm going to get rid of my Blogger account because I have found Tumblr and its glorious! My URL is http://littlemissmortis.tumblr.com

Check me out!

I'm really kind of sad to be getting rid of my account here because it has so many of my thoughts in these posts. Its all good though because I'll have many more thoughts and I can capture them in my new blog. OH! The blog! Its called Slim Jones Jackson. :)

So heavy in your arms

I'm pretty obsessed with "Heavy in Your Arms" by Florence and the Machine. Its a powerful song for sure. I bought hair dye today because my roots are starting to show. Also, I finally found this new mascara that I've been looking for for about 3 weeks. Its Revlon Growlucious mascara and I found it at Target. I haven't been this excited in a little while. :)

So I have a full week at work this week. Mon, Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun...I'm pretty tired right now. 4 full shifts and a 6 hour one tonight. Crazy amounts of money about to be made, I'm excited. I have to get ready for work now. Hasta.

Much love.

Being and Nothingness

Watching Wizards of Waverly Place and its awesome. I have things to do today, but its my day off and I really believe in having a day OFF. Of doing nothing and enjoying the nothingness of it all. Unfortunately its really hard to do nothing living under the same roof as my parents...I love them, I do, but they don't share my same ideology, of that I'm sure. My dad will complain about being soooo tired on Friday night and then get up at some unGodly hour on Saturday morning and do yardwork or go flying or just do something to pass the time. He is incapable of sitting around reading a book for more than an hour or just sitting listening to the silence. My mom is a little better than him for she can read for hours or take a nap just because. I am the grand master of doing nothing and enjoying it fully when I can. I search the internets for interesting movies I've never heard of or flipping through blogs and adding ones I see promise in.

Its my dad's birthday today and I slept through him leaving this morning because I closed last night. I hardly ever see my parents anymore because we no longer have even remotely similar sleep schedules. They get up at 6:30 and leave for work at 7:45, I get up at 8:3o or 9 because I don't get home til 12:30 or 1 in the morning so while I'm sleeping they're already at work. Because of this my mom feels the need to call later in the day to communicate with me because she feels like we don't see each other enough at the present moment. I think its kind of nice, if not a it annoying. Anyhoo, my mom and I made my dad dinner tonight and we all enjoyed it while watching Forever Young. Then we had Boston cream pie (why its called pie when it is clearly a cake will forever be beyond me) and sang happy birthday. Then I promptly became ill with nausea and a headache and fatigue. Pretty much I'm just TIRED. So bedtime for me before something goes awry in my body and my symptoms get worse. I hope I feel better in the morning.

Hasta.

I feel threatened...

Today I was threatened by a coworker in front of a manager. She said I was a terrible human being and that I did the most cutthroat shit and I was lucky she didn't smash my teeth into my throat. She is now being written up for making me feel threatened in a "safe zone" and she has to talk to the store manager who will speak with the regional manager and the franchise owner. It was a scary experience to say the least over the lamest thing ever...a guy. Granted the guy is awesome and sweet and funny, but it was just stupid. My life was a living hell for a good 3 1/2 hours...and I thought it was going to be ok til I was washing my hands and she said, "What? Not going to talk to me?" And I said that I didn't want to talk about it at work and I was really trying to be nice. It was actually really nice of the manager to look out for me by standing between her and myself. Anyway, just thought I'd share my first scary encounter with ya'll.

My mom and dad went to Sonora for a couple days and my mom brought back the CUTEST Burt's Bees lip balm purse. It has 4 chapsticks in it and its adorable!!!! My mom is soooooo coool.

I recently began keeping a journal again and I really like it. I forgot how good it feels to get your thoughts down onto paper...its a release for sure. Its also a way to deal with stress so I don't turn to cigarettes or something more dangerous or self-destructive like I have in the past.

I'm getting pretty good hours at work lately and its awesome! This week I'm work 4-close (midnight) on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and I'm psyched!

I'm suuuuuuuuuuuper tired so I'm going to head off to bed.

Night. :)

Lady Gaga - Speechless

Soooo...it is now the 2nd of July. Where did the month of June go? That is the question I asked myself all day today. Closing at work makes the time slip more apparent. I wake up in the morning and I don't know what day it is because technically I've already started the day when I get off work. Its weird for sure.

My aunt sent me a ring probably a year ago and it has made a beautiful addition to my toes! It is the cutest toe ring ever. :) I don't know why I didn't start wearing it sooner!

I just made my first eBay purchase! I bought a zebra phone case...its soooooo cute! And with shipping it was only $8.21, I'm so excited. :)

I'm not ashamed to admit that I still subscribe to Seventeen magazine because there are actually a few really good articles in each one that are applicable to a 20 year old. The one I received this month has a SUPER good article about a fitness plan and I'm going to try it out. Its a 6 week program where the exercises change every week. I'm hoping by the end of summer I'll be more toned and leaner and overall healthier. I'm feeling enthusiastic right now.

I think thats pretty much all I want to talk about this time. Keep ya updated!

Retro, Dance, Freak undercover the girl she needs a lover.

I like what I read in Rachel's blog so I'm going to steal her idea about the Public Humiliation Diet...it sounds pretty awesome to me though I don’t think public humiliation alone will do the trick. And I’d like to make long term changes instead of having a yo-yo diet fluke. So, here are the changes I’m trying to live into:

• Limit snacks to fruits and veggies. (Shouldn't be too difficult I hope.)

• No more snacking at work. (it isn't snacking so much as not bringing my own lunch or dinner that I get so hungry I order something...so I'll have to work on bringing a bag lunch for my shifts that are longer than 3-4 hours.)

• Try to avoid prepackaged foods, including fast food as well as frozen meals or boxed snacks. (This is going to be pretty freaking hard for me seeing as how I work at McDonalds the king of all fast food joints...woe is my employment situation.)
  

• Swap out soda for tea and water. (Done and done.)

• Quality over quantity of food; (i.e. instead of chicken strip combo at Jack in the Box, make sweet tea, salad, and chicken with pasta.)

• Find ways to be more active; even if not “exercising” (lifting weights, running, etc) be doing something more than sitting on my butt. (Inviting friends to go for a walk or going for a hike or riding bikes or just strolling around downtown Chico or going to a park.)

I will post my weight whenever I get on here so you can see my progress or slip ups.

Anyhoo, my day has been pretty chill even with my dad limbing trees for the better part of 5 hours and my mom and I hauling the limbs into a huge limb pile. I cleaned my car (which needed it desperately) and I'm showered and about to go to Casa de Paradiso with my parents and my dad's friend Butch and his wife. Should be a good night.

Byeee.

Closing time

Closed for the first time tonight and it was actually fun! The only thing that sucked was a guy ordered something through the drive thru at 10:56 pm it was annoying. But he was the last customer and we cleaned for an hour and we were out by midnight. I like closing, but I think I'm only gonna like it when its Steve, Jordan and Drew...they are RAD.
