Okay, so I'm not going to say I'm a Twilight freak. I'm almost done with the last book, and I will say this: I loved the first book, hated the second one, liked the third, and the fourth left me going "WTF" at first, but now I'm liking it towards the end. So basically, I can just stick with reading the first book and second half of the fourth and I'll be happy. And the movie was... okay.

I still fail to see why in the world people think she's as good as Rowling. Dude, no. Horrible comparison, and it's an insult to J.K. And these fangirls make me want to pull my hair out. I thought RPatz was cute in Goblet of Fire, but all that has died now. And James, in the books, is supposed to be ugly for a vampire. Cam Gigandet is so hot, and even with long hair, there is no way it fits the novel. That said, I liked him in it. And don't get me started on Nikki Reed and Jackson Rathbone. They're attractive, but they could have found people to fit the role better lookwise.

But, oddly enough, the guy who plays Jacob was the hottest in the movie, in my opinion, even if I'm Team Edward.

And now I'm cool.

ETA: Oh, and they announced they're making New Moon into a movie? I laugh at all the RPatz fans. I'll get my fill of Jacob though!

So here's my view on the election. I'm going to say it once, and then I'll be done.

I'm a registered Republican, but I'm one of those weird ones who actually doesn't vote party lines. I vote for the person, not straight ticket. In fact, if I could, I would register myself as an Independent, but then I couldn't vote in the primaries, so I had to pick one.

To me, the candidates this year were fifty-fifty to me. I saw good things and bad things in both candidates, and I wasn't going to vote for McCain just because I'm a Republican.

What did it for me was the candidates for the Vice Presidency. Biden's a pretty decent guy, but Palin? Dear lord, that woman could not run this country. So the right person won, in my opinion. And I'm glad that I'll be able to remember this moment in history.

Onto better things, Marlena's coming to see me tomorrow! Yay! I have to give the cats a bath and clean the house some, but that needed to be done anyway. I've been teasing the poor cats about baths and flea meds all week! Haha.

Sickness suck balls. [Oct. 26th, 2008|10:24 pm]
[mood |sick]
[music |Jensen Ackles :: Eye of the Tiger]

So I managed to get Friday through Monday off. Because I keep changing up my schedules, I miraculously managed to get that. Basically, what happened was, at my job, Sunday is mandatory for everyone. Why? Because if it wasn't, no one would come in that day. Well, Danielle, one of the new supervisors (since my two favorites, Ryan and Brittany quit, which I'm STILL pissed about, but whatev), went around a few weeks ago and asked a few people if they wanted to switch mandatory days. So instead of having to come in Sunday, I'd have to come in Wednesday. So I changed my schedule to be Mon-Thurs, with Fri-Sun off.

So it's been this way the past two weeks, and then I turn in my schedule to Debra for next week, and she tells me I have to schedule Sunday. She tried to tell me that the switching the mandatory day shit was only for a week. Uh. Bullshit. It wasn't, other wise why didn't they say it that way? They were short a lot of people Sunday, and had to call people in. That's why it's suddenly just for the "one week". Ugh. I fucking hate my job. But basically, the reason I explained all that is because, since this Sunday was my last scheduled Sunday off, my normal scheduled day off is Monday. SO that's how I managed to get so many days off.

And you know what I've been doing on my days off? Jack shit. Why? Because I'm sick as a damn dog. I mean, I hate it that I got sick on my days off. But think about it. I'd rather be sick on my days off than having to go to work feeling like this. And I know Richard, the boss, would make me work through it, because he's an ass like that. Who cares that my throat hurts, I keep sniffling, and I could puke any second because of all this drainage in my stomach. I know, I know, TMI, but hey. It's how I'm feeling! But I just feel so unproductive, but I can't make my body do anything, and my mind just won't function. So sitting here, watching movies, hugging Kleenex for the win.

BUT! As a happy note to end this (which I just now realized that a lot of the people I used to talk to over this thing kinda faded off, so there's really no sense in posting here, but whatev. I need more LJ friends. I know Marlena pays attention, so I guess this is for you, Mars Bar! Which, speaking of, I love you and I miss you, hun!)

( This is why I fucking love Supernatural, and Jensen Ackles is SO awesome. )

That video, and that episode, made my fucking night. When Dean screams like a girl, then laughs and says "That was scary."? I just about died of laughter. Seriously. With this sickness, I kept laughing, then coughing up a lung.

Take this job and shove it. [Aug. 7th, 2008|03:59 am]
[mood |frustrated]
[music |Breaking Benjamin :: So Cold]

Why I hate my job: We have a new boss, Richard. Now Richard has never worked the phones before. He has no experience with dealing with pissed off people who don't want to be bothered. He's never been almost done with a survey only to have some jackass say "This is taking too long" and hang up. He has no idea how long it makes the days drag on.

ANYWAY, besides that, he's actually made us call people after ten o'clock at night. Nobody in their right mind wants to take a fucking political survey at eleven, okay? There's no fucking point. All your doing is making people yell at us.

He's been picking up projects that we can't finish. It's election season. Two months until November. We're swamped. If it's ten o' clock and we still have to work on projects, don't fucking pick up a California project because Houston can't pull their weight and because you want to prove that we are better than they are. It's not a godddamn competition. I could care less if Houston kicks out asses every night. If we can't do it, we can't do it.

And if the hotline says "Shift is from 4 until 11", DON'T LIE and tell us "I've just been informed that the hotline was wrong. Shift will run until midnight." Okay, I've been working here for over two years. No. The hotline was not wrong. YOU decided to pick up a fucking project that we weren't supposed to have. YOU made the decision to keep us an extra hour. We aren't fucking stupid, okay? You should have at least just owned up to it and said we picked up another project.

And last, but certainly not least, it makes me so pissed off when you let people go home that aren't getting surveys hours before shift ends. Or when you let people go home, and keep ten people to work on the final project. Why? Because it's always me that ends up staying. I should be happy that I'm good at my job, but really? I'm not. In no way does that make me want to keep getting surveys and doing quality work. I want to go home early too, sometimes, dammit. I need the money, but when it comes down to it, I'm tired, worn out, and stressed by... oh, 9pm. I want to go home, not talk to people who's opinions I could give a rat's ass about.


...And I'm done.

[music |Darren Hayes :: Lost Without You]

So, in light of me trying to fight off sleep, yet have something to do, I've done nothing but search YouTube for various things, and I found this video.

( All I know is I'm lost without you... )

I've done nothing but listen to it nonstop. Many of you probably have no idea who Delta Goodrem is, because she's big in Australia as opposed to here, but she is an amazing singer, and she was just going into treatments for cancer and couldn't perform, so Darren Hayes (the former lead singer of Savage Garden) sang it for her as a tribute, and it's just amazing. She's the young girl crying at the end of the video.

Dammit.

I feel like I shouldn't be so upset. He has to go to officer camp for a month. I was with him while he went to Iraq. Surely I can handle a month.

But no. I keep crying, and that's all that I've done for the last hour. And here it is, 6am, and I haven't slept yet.

I think what makes it worse is that I'm scared. I don't like being here, by myself, for a whole month, with just cats to keep me company. If I had a roommate still, it would comfort me just to know someone was in the next room. Or if I still lived at University Club like I did when he was in Iraq, I would know most of the people around me in the other apartments.

Not here. And I'm scared out of my mind. I don't even want to sleep. He's all the way in Washington and I have to be here.

Funk, funk. Everywhere. I hate funks.

They just creep on you, for no reason at all, and just stay there. I had a good cry this weekend. Really good. A needed one. And what brought a little light to the situation was that I really didn't have anything to cry about. It was just one of those girly things were I just felt like it needed to come out, and it did. It felt good, and I'm glad that I didn't have a legit reason for it, because... who does, right?

Now the issue is... how do I get out of said funk?

In other news, someone needs to take away my YouTube access or something, because I can't stop listening to these two songs over and over!

( Videos of doom )

The first one... just because the actual video? Not appealing, and Adriana Lima? Is one of only 2 girls I'd turn lesbian for. She's my girl crush. And it's a pretty song.

And the second was what finally made me cry during this funk and get it all out.

And now they just... inhabit my music listening time. Marph.
