Oh crap, he's back.

The moment I came into work yesterday, my friend Anthony had to tell me something. He handed me the schedule and pointed at a name. "NO WAY, HE'S BACK!", I shouted and Anthony started to laugh. Alex came back to work here. I'm having mixed feelings about this. He was my summer "fling". (eww, hate that word.)
I couldn't stop smiling and yet I know that if I run into him, that it'll be somewhat awkward between us. I've stopped talking to him since August. I'm sure that I can avoid him most of the time and keep our encounters at a minimum. But do I want to?

(Don't be stupid! Remember what you went through and walk away...)

Good Riddance!

It's crazy that 10 years went by so quickly already.
Good riddance to this semi-shitty decade and bring on the next 10!
Happy New Year to everyone! Party hard and be safe!!

Tis the Season of Commercialization

I never really cared for the holidays....any of them. As a kid, it was a blast of course. But as a teen, whenever something went wrong, all the blame was on me. Now, I just pretty much stopped trying. Plus my family is somewhat broken so that will add to the dislike of the holidays. And of course the commercialization of Christmas is bad. In the past two years, I haven't bought any presents for anyone during the season because I was so poor. That just made me feel like shit because in this day and age, if you don't buy gifts for people, you are either greedy or don't care about them. Ok, I'm still broke as hell but I can actually get some gifts for people this year. I've done some shopping already.
But now that I think about it....what is the point of me even celebrating this season?? This holiday is supposed to be about Jesus Christ but I no longer believe in any religion really. If not religion, then it's time to spend with the family. I already mentioned that it's a broken home. Huh....I guess this is why I get so depressed during winter.

Too Obvious

I wish I could defend you but I can't. Then they will know.
Honestly, the risk is not worth taking.

And it begins....

The snow is coming down. Don't know whether to be excited or disappointed. Yes, it looks pretty but I can't stand the cold or driving in it. So I'll just end up staying inside. Until it goes away. That will be in about 6 months. And during that time, I'll develop cabin fever.

Wisconsin is not worthy!

But sure as hell thankful anyway!! One of my favorite bands, Cafe Tacuba, is having a concert tonight in Milwaukee. They are a HUGE mexican rock band and they are coming to little 'ol Wisconsin.

That is a pretty big deal since normally, big artists that perform in spanish tend to skip Wisconsin altogether and head over to Chicago, IL. instead. Let's face it, there are way more spanish speaking people down there than there are up here in the Milwaukee area.

Hopefully I will be able to take some photos of them, with them, get autographs and hugs!

Greedy Emm-Effers

My mom signed up for toys from Toys For Tots for my little sister and asked me to pick them up. As I stood in line waiting for my number to be called, I notice a woman who was nicely dressed. I didn't really think much of it, just that she stood out since the rest of the folks in line (including me) were kinda scrubby looking. But then, I saw her purse.....and it really pissed me off!

What is a woman who can afford a Chanel purse doing here??

That greedy son of a bitch! How can she buy herself a nice purse and not get toys for her children? But then I thought maybe she was there to pick the toys up for someone, like I was. The possibility of it being a fake also crossed my mind. Who knows?
When I got the box of toys and walked out of the building, I noticed the cars parked in front with their trunks open, waiting for their boxes of toys (and bikes for some). Most of them were really nice cars. It sucks that people take advantage of programs when they clearly do not need it.
