Tue, 10 Jun 2003 00:34:06 GMT

wow, its been a while since I've really wrote an entry. I guess I just don't have much time these days. Always doing something.

This weekend we took the boat out on the sound. My friend Jen came with us. We were just gonna go put put around and play, but we decided it would be fun to drive the boat to Kingston. So we parked in Kingston and had dinner. It was great, the restaurant didnt even card. We sat on the bow of the boat and just enjoyed the sunshine.

So...i have this car for sale if anyone is interested

it is a 1996 Ford Explorer 2 dr. It is in good shape inside and out. Only a few scratches. The interior is immaculate. In fact it was recently detailed. I got a good deal on it, but i've now decided that Id rather have a jet ski, so imma sell it to get a jet ski :) So yeah. its a 1996 Ford explorer, looks great, 114,000 miles on it. I'm asking what I paid for it which is $4500

Wed, 04 Jun 2003 00:40:49 GMT

This past weekend was fun. Last minute I decided to have a B-B-Q, which turned out to be a Beer-B-Q. It was fun. Everyone brought their drink of choice, we had hamburgers, Anthony played geetar for us all, and we requested songs, and sang along. There was even this one girl who got topless in the hot tub. Now you can't beat a lesbian beer-b-q where there are topless girls, and burgers. ahh, it was fun. Tiffy got a lil sicky. Hah, she drank a lil to much, and well Jen couldnt make it home. She had to stop in mill creek to crash at a friends house.

I invented a new drink. Its the Kristen. MmMmM it was good.

and that was the hightlight of my weekend.

I GOT A JOB!!!

Tue, 29 Apr 2003 22:47:33 GMT

I'm back from La Canad-ia. It was fun. Got there at like 1:15pm on Saturday. We checked in our hotel and went n browsed around downtown Vancouver. When we were driving in the city we passed this huge thing that said "Paramount Pictures" on it. So I was like "THEY ARE SHOOTING A MOVIE" so i convinced everyone we should walk to where we saw the van thingy. So we did and followed the huge ass power cords down these stairs across this fountain and down into this weird basement type thing. The cords went into this door, and guess what was near the door? A huge sign that set "SET" and had an arrow pointing inside. Jen and April totally went inside the building and went and checked it out. They are crack heads.

So after that we just goofed off, went to Virgin Records, did some other browsing. Then we went to the el Liquor store and bought some alki goodness. And then to 7-11 to get munchies and juice to mix with our boos. Jen and Kela were fighting by the time we got back to the hotel. SO April and I went to our room (Our rooms had a cute lil ajoining door) so we locked it and shut them out and had sex for like ever. Then I showered while April slept. And then woke her up.

We were all supposed to go eat, but low and behold. Jen and Kela were fighting so they didnt want to go. So April and I got dressed and went downstairs to the restaurant, it was closed. But the sports bar was open. We ordered some chicken strips and fries, played pool, and decided to get a few drinks before we went out.

Then we called Jen and Kela's room and told them to come down, so they did. And we all shot pool, and Jen bought us a round of drinks. I got a Long Island that was like WAYYYYYYYYYYY to tequilla-y. I gave it to kela after i drank half of it twice! (I had her put more coke in it cuz it was way to strong).

Then we were off to this club where there was this girl 4 girl party. It was pretty fun. April and I went to dance and i saw this girl on the dance floor. I'm like that looks like Shey. And then I was like, hmm, but maybe it isn't....but then I was like Yeah thats deffinetly Shey. So later in the night I went n said hi to her. HOw random was that?

Then I drank more. HEre is a list of what I drank for the night.

A cozmo (at the sports bar)
Half a LOng island (at the sports bar)
Rum and Cranberry juice (in our hotel room)
A shot of vodka (at the club)
4 1/2 long islands (at the club)
A redbull and Vodka (at the club)
Some mango thing that was like all vodka (at the club)

So i had a pretty good buzz for like 20 minutes, then it went away. I was so sad that my tolerance for alki is so high. It sucked. We stayed at the club for like 3 hours..

Jen and Kela stayed for 2 1/2 they fought and left to "have a talk".

April and I went back to the hotel but decided tthat the casino sounded fun. So we went downstairs. April won $20 bucks on blackjack. Then we went upstairs. And hmmmm...."slept"

Then Sunday we woke up and went back to the casino. Didn't win that time, lol, but I started with $10 and at one point had $40. I should have stopped then, but oh well. So yeah then we went to Red Robin and ate and went shopping (Jen and Kela had already left for the states). So we bought these super cute matching snowboard jackets for $40. They were having this huge sale.

Then we came home. We stopped in bellingham and saw Heather :). That was fun. We went out to dinner with her and her girlfriend Kristy. They are super cute together. Kristy was way nice. Heathers moving to Seattle this summer and she said she was gonna take me to the Rose to meet some mullet haired women. Wow...thats like...my dream!

Okay i really ought to go, I have 2 hours to finish this homework assignment.

Hollywood Records/Essex Girl recording artist Sheila Nicholls bought a
school bus the other day. She found it on E-bay. She flew from her home
in Echo Park, California to Chicago and drove it all the way back, where she
started converting it into the Chicks in Arms tour bus.

Chicks In Arms, an amalgam of cultural, artistic, and aesthetic femininity,
started in 1998 when Ms. Nicholls sought to give a voice to the sisterhood
that she believes can be born through art. So far there have been eight
shows, all in Los Angeles, each providing powerful performance opportunities
for women in diverse art. Songwriters, puppeteers, poets, painters, dancers,
DJ’s and filmmakers, have all taken part. The proceeds from the shows have
been donated to causes such as the Zapatistas, the medical marijuana
campaign, Doctors Without Borders and other organizations.

Now Chicks in Arms is traveling to six cities on the west coast, creating a
unique show in each town, combining the women on the bus with some amazing
local performers. A special non-profit organization has been chosen in each
city to receive all of the proceeds from the show. Everyone involved with
the tour is donating their time so that these women can gain some exposure
and that money and attention can be given to good local causes.

Chicks in Arms Seattle will feature Miss Indigo Blue from the queer cabaret
group BurlyQ, the queer dance group Queen Bees, the seductive hip hop of
Portland’s Siren’s Echo and bass and drums chick duo Sideways.

Chicks in Arms is the face of feminine social and artistic awareness, and a
source of true strength for men and women in a turbulent time. Coming from
Essex county England, Sheila found the myriad voices in Los Angeles
something welcome and distinct from the English farms, and pubs of her
youth, as she always says, "People hear of where I grew up and say, ‘oh,
your mum runs a pub? English country roads? Sounds so quaint.’ Its pretty
dismal and homogeneous, actually,"

Sheila’s reaction to the highly charged competitive commercial environment
in which she lives has yielded a somewhat different approach to gathering
participants.

"It is important that we experience what it’s like to share our work with
each other, not primarily from "what can I get out of this and how much will
I get paid" , but with an attitude of service. I ask women to approach this
as a full experience offering themselves in community and equality not just
at the shows but on the bus and all times in between I look for women who
already consider themselves to be activists, and to look at the tour as an
extension of their activist experience and to hold the intention that in
doing so provides a pallet for the art of growth"

Work lately has gotten worse. Mike, my fav co worker, switched to another dealership. I don't think I can handle it anymore. They have me doing Colleen's work (Colleen = girl fired) SO I have to cover her duties, plus my duties. Which makes it impossible.

On a brighter note. The manager from a competing dealership has been calling me. At first I was like why is he calling just to say "hi" but then he sprung the question on me "Would you ever consider switching jobs". He wants me to come work for him. I'd never met him, but I had been highly recommended to him. Thats awesome.

So on Friday I went to Mike's going away party at this Pub down from my house. ANd sure enough the manager guy was there. We played pinball against one another and talked about the job. It seems like it will work. The only catch is i have to take 3 weeks off, before I can work there. Because the owner of his dealership is related to the owner of mine.

I'm going to negotiate to keep my 2 weeks vacation that I've earned. And also I want at least $4-5 more dollars an hour. But for the job he wants me to do for him, If I do take it, I will probably be making about $7-8 more an hour. Because I'll be commission. And have the chance to make up to $55k a year, maybe more depending on bonuses.

Bad Ass.

I have to run to the school to buy the books for the class I was put on the waiting list for, it turns out I got in, woohoo.

One of my favorite singers is coming to town, and guess what? She is on tour with one of my friends!!!!!!! This makes me smile so greatly because I remember when my friend, Nadine, was still struggling and trying to get somewhere with her career. Now she has.

She came to visit me about 2 1/2 years ago. She spent the week at my house, and I played this cd for her. A singer named Sheila NIcholls. Got I love Sheila Nicholls. The perfect mix of grand piano meets ani difranco. She is just awesome. I used to fall asleep every night listening to this cd. Well when Nadine got back to California she looked into this artist that had so caught my ear and made me fall in love with her voice. And now. 2 1/2 years later, Nadine and her are on tour together. THis is the best thing since chocolate i swear. To see someone that is so close of a friend to me, finally get her dream. It is amazing.

So here is the thing. Check out SHeila Nicholls. She is wonderful. She had a song on the Hi fidelity soundtrack or whatever that movie was called. She is from England and her voice is just wonderfuly accented. Just thinking about her makes me smile.

So yes, tell all your friends, and your brothers, hell even invite your parents. Its an all age show and it is going to be wonderful. :) (so that was my duty of promoting the concert like i said i would) :)

GO TO THE SHOW!

Here is a list of the upcoming shows and venues in our area.

Thursday April 17 Eugene OR @ the WOW Hall (291 W. 8th Ave)
Friday April 18 Seattle WA @ Vera Project (1916 4th Ave)
Saturday April 19 Portland OR @ Nocturnal (1800 E. Bernside)

If you have any questions who she is or what she sounds like get ahold of me, and I will play you some of Nadine's music, over the phone or in person whatever. It will rock. And be sure to bring some money...so you can get her cd at the show! :)

late.

Friday at work was weird.

We were evacuated due to some fumes or something. They shut down Aurora Ave. It was weird. Helicopters, cop cars, fire trucks, filled up the street. They put that yellow tape all the way around it. Like 3 people got very sick. One of them had to go to the hospital, the others had to get put on oxygen. Then they called in the people who wear the bubble suits w/ the gas meter things..to test the air.. It looked like E.T or something. IT was weird. But we were evacuated for like almost 5 hours. 5 hours of doing nothing - paid! Can't beat that, now can we? They eventually deemed it safe, so we went back in.
