to build a fire

summer started a little over a week ago

it's been good so far. A few days ago i was slipping on my first pair of shorts since last august probably and that's when it hit me :)

i got "promoted" i guess you could say, to a closing manager. It's going to increase my pay (thank God) and will give me more responsibility.

my body is physically tired, though. Tonight i'm at home at night for the first time in what...6 days? It's necessary.

oh baby baby it's all about the moon

"Today we're younger than we're ever gonna be"


Words to go by on the last day of school

the meaning of expensive taste

The last day of school is tomorrow :-)


I really don't have much more to write...

hey how much for that back of a head, man

I didn't go to school today.

It's pointless, really. All we're doing in almost every class is either watching a movie, having a party, or "reviewing" for finals.

I use quotations, because "reviewing" means the teacher is going to hand out a worksheet, tell us to do it, and then go get on their computers.

Finals are going to be a breeze, anyway. Who's worried? Not me..

So get this. I went to fill up my tank this morning at Chevron and the fucking nozzle to the gas pump was loose, unbeknown to me. Long story short, gas was all over my leg...It STANK.

You would go home too, right? Thank God for parking passes...

picking up carrie around 1:50, then going to work tonight.

I was blue and unwell

Summer is taking a long time to get here.

And we were galloping manic
to the mouth of the source
we were swallowing panic
in the face of its force

Joanna Newsom is growing on me.

I haven't read a new book in ages....




oh well. Off to work..

interacting more with the world rather than just using it

I decided not to quit. There's more reasons to stay than to leave, therefor, I'll stay.

School's out in 8 days. exciting

my allergies are kicking in again...swollen eyes and sneezing? yep...

i'll leave you with this picture

oprah's va-jay-jay

Today started off abruptly at 7:00 AM when my dad slammed into my room and screamed, "Casey, CLEAN OUT YOUR CAR RIGHT NOW! I HAVE TO DRIVE IT TODAY!"

So 7:00 AM this morning I was outside with a garbage bag and a vacuum. He could have just asked nicely and I wouldn't be so bitter about it...

TONIGHT: regina spektor is going to be in Atlantic City! A few friends from the stix will be there and will probably all meet up, which is REALLY fun. I hope someone records the show, I'd really like to hear what she's been working on...Oh wow. By saying that I just realized she might play something new...You can't see it now, but I'm shaking with excitement.

Megan told our boss that she's quitting yesterday. I'm really proud of her, because it must have been difficult. They LOVE her there. She's been there for 11 months, you know? Anyway, I can't figure out a way to quit...Maybe as soon as another job offer comes, I can just tell Todd I got offered another job that pays more. Yeah, that seems like a good plan to me.

uhhhhhh

i have to go to work soon. Courtney, the new girl, and I are working today. I hate Saturdays at JMIKES. We're so busy...ugh I hope we're really slow today.

later,

feel the waltz

So, we got our "tentative" schedules today in homeroom

I didn't sign up for Multimedia/Communication Technology, I signed up for FILM. Come to find out a junior got a spot in the class that I could have been in? I've been waiting all year to get into this class....I'm requesting a change fo' sho'.

Got paid today...nothing to brag about.
BUT, I applied at Barnes and Noble! It just seems like I would fit well in that kind of place. I mean I read, I drink coffee, I listen to music, I enjoy the quiet, I'm good with people, etc. Look how many times "I" was written in that sentence....shut up, casey.

i'm over it

my brain and tounge just met

the day was going FANTASTIC until trying to get out of the school this afternoon. I swear that parking lot guy isn't being fair...

Grayson is so fucked up. I mean, who builds the student parking lot farther from the exit than the bus lanes? That's retarded. It's just BEGGING for a wreck.

I'm a little bitter today.

I realized that someone who I've been sitting with in the mornings is as crazy about regina as I am. Probably a little less, bbbuuuutttt...idk, it's pretty cool. He mentioned 11:11 and I almost had a heart attack. You know how some people only know an artist BIG song? Well, not him. I'm glad, too. Now I don't look so crazy.


think i'll go play some piano...

the world that has made us can no longer contain us

You know when you're almost overwhelmed with happiness? That's how I feel right now.

We're making cupcakes right now for "teacher appreciation week". I'll probably end up only giving them to my friends, though.

Katie just got a job today. It's cool, really. She was pretty desperate. I'm thinking about quitting JMikes...the drama there is just retarded and unnecassary.

Current goal: Be more humble and grateful for my health, drink more water than Diet Coke, cut back on coffee (i'm down to one cup a day), and stop being so lazy.

uhhhhh, let me break it down for you.
spending time with friends and boyfriend + summer + one year closer to graduation = FINALLY



Grayson High School, it was a senior prank. CALM THE FUCK DOWN and let the anonymous group WALK. Did it really mess up anything that bad? Come on...

let's do this
