Dude, I found the coolest apartment. It's modern, with blue lights on the floors underneathe barstools and purple walls with spikes on them. I think the owner is a bit of a freakydeak too, so my career should be a-okay!

Sounds like a really cool place, Lysondra :)
On another note:
Why can't I write any new songs lately? I get some lyrics down, try to get some music for them, and get frustrated and just play Black Dog instead.

I moved! Woooo! No more stinky, obnoxious, drunk ass roommates hindering my studies and ruining my books! I can cook naked, have antiques without damage and display my toys all over the bathroom.
Its been a arduous few weeks without internet while waiting for DSL hookups but its worth it. My nerdy ass can sit around and play counter strike with lightening speed
The only downside is I've been plopped square in the middle of stripper hell in the City of Industry. Time to make the best of it :) My rent is among the cheapest in LA so its not too much to worry 'bout.
Ikea here I come!

Forget the last fucking place... forget it!!
I found the MOST amazing apartment ever. It's EXACTLY to the dollar the agreed upon maximum Partner and I said we'd pay.. but it's perfect. Three storey two bedroom three bathroom, spa tub in main bedroom, tiled staircases, two car garage, huge brick balcony, private courtyard, large kitchen with heaps of cupboards, aircon that is regulated by room, dimmer lights in every room, intercoms, really nice neighbourhood, newly painted, newly carpeted, washer dryer hookup, clothesline in courtyard, DID I MENTION SPA TUB?!
I am getting this place. FUCK everything else. I am mother fricken getting this place. I don't care what it takes. I -must- 100% have this place as my own or I -will- cry. It is beautiful. Fabulous. Amazing.
Please please please wish me luck or pray to your gods for me! PLEASE!? I'll take any chance I can get to get this place, so please!!

Yes! A spare bedroom and TWO spare closets and a large stove so you can cook for me!!
I alternate between wanting to drown my feelings with food or alcohol and just wanting to hide in my bed. Forever. Life does get easier at some point, right?

I am supposed to have a shoot today...but apparently the directors dad just died and his head is in the clouds. My agent cant get hold of him and it is almost 1 in the afternoon and I still dont have a call time. For TODAY.
If he switches it to tomorrow so i miss meeting Paige I'm going to scream.

^^i agree. substitute alcohol w/ sex. *raises coffee mug.*
my rat keeps eating my closet wall (chipping the paint/wood) when I'm not looking.
1 rat: $10.
1 cage: $40.
Keeping $10 rat from destroying $800 security deposit?
Priceless.
I'm nauseous. I need to get my eyes checked...

Do I tell her the truth or wrap her in the warm blanket of a soothing lie? Let's put it this way: It gets both easier AND harder, as you age. Yup. That's helpful. Doh!

My rat used to do that too!LOL! Between him and the mess my birds make..I never got my security deposits back when I rented!
Does he have enough to chew on? Mine was a PIA and refused to knaw on anythng(other then the wall) to wear down his teeth. I had to clip them every few months::)

hahhaah he has plenty to chew on... but he's not interested in chewing rat-things... just MY things. >:( he destroyed my last 2 pairs of stripper heels.... chewed the straps right off!!! I don't wanna keep him in the cage all day, and he's USUALLy a good boy when he's out.... but the second I turn around, a shirt has been dragged into the cage (he takes my clothes out of my closet and drags them 1 by 1 into the cage) or he's chewing on my shoes/a box/the wall.
smart guy. he only destroys stuff I care about. (grrr... if the lil' bastard weren't so damn cute and affectionate when he's not destructive, I'd have ... meh, he knows i luv him.)

^^^ when I get my digi camera (my parents have dropped hints about a birthday present) I'm hoping it has 30 sec. of video record-time... that is DEFINitely worth a youtube.
The BEST was when I had a boy over, and his boxer-shorts were accidentally thrown too close to ratty's cage... while Boy and I were busy on bed, Rat proceeded to pull the shorts into his cage through the bars and SHRED the shit out of them.
Boy was not happy.
I thought it was absolutely hilarious. }:D

I do NOT want to go teach this afternoon. I need a nap. I'm exhausted.
So.... if the class average on a test is 57, does that say more about the students or the teacher?

Not necessarily. Esp if shes eating crap food too. I've known quite a few overweight drug addicts.

maybe youre right. i ate crap food when iwas doing coke and i was still skinny. smaller than i am now not eating crap. not like scary skinny, but still. i would assume meth would be greater weight loss.. but who knows.

switching shifts at my club for a bit. Sick of the dayshift being so damn slow. Back to nights I go :( Tell me why I'm nervous? I've been dancing for so long I shouldn't be like this.
Haven't told the roomie that i'm moving out by the 1st of Nov. Not sure how to bring it up. Figured I'd wait til the next wild party that he throws when i'm trying to sleep and i'll just tell him I've had enough of this shit and I'm moving out.

IMO, h83, it seems like the best time for you to present your solution :wave: to his worst behavior. The social context would be appropriate and your emotion >:( would be genuine...

agreed, it's a teacher issue making things too difficult or applying too stringent standards.
otoh, i've seen consistently high averages that may point to too easy of a grader.
imo it should be 75 somewhat consistently.

I didn't realize that your roommate was your friend first, which makes my original suggestion a crappy one. I believe that snoopy is the man with the plan.

Jumping in late, but do you plan on getting your own place? Or at least a smaller number of roomies? Sounds like you were living with a circus troupe.

I felt a lump in my throat last night, but ignored it. This morning, I was clearning my throat after waking up and I felt the lump MOVING. I hacked a bit and this lumpy thing came out. I coughed again and more came out. Gross.
