Briefly

  • My car door lock is still broken, and I am increasingly annoyed at having to climb in from the passenger side. I'm becoming quite stealthy at it, but that hasn't completely stopped the occasional odd look from bystanders.
  • My cell phone is broken. Just as it hit the two year mark. It's like they have an internal timer. Sprint won't rush ship the new one, and I refuse to step foot in their stores, thanks to a mildly traumatic series of visits LAST time my phone died.
  • My teeth/mouth/the gaping holes in my jaw STILL hurt from getting my teeth yanked Friday. It gets minuscule-y better each day, but I had to stop the vicodin if I wanted to drive above-referenced car to below-referenced job.
  • I'm increasingly bored at work. I think I have learned everything that they want me to learn, and even when I vocalize my feelings ("hey Amy, I am seriously bored out of my mind"), I am more or less brushed off. It makes the days go slow. Nothing I do really takes that much mental capacity, either. No good. I'll keep at it for the paychecks, though, don't worry.
  • Over the last two weeks though, I have been able to see and spend time with some of my favorite people ever (not all, but lots of 'em), which is sort of surprising considering how crazy things have been. It is always nice to hang out with the girls, catch up, and reminisce. I am lucky to have so many really sweet and fun friends.
That's all for now. I am going to change and head out to 33 to enjoy an evening on their patio during the most beautiful night of the month so far. Never thought I'd say that about July in St. Louis, but this is some fantastic weather.

damn, kirbs. it sounds like you're falling apart. why did you have teeth yanked? were you having trouble with the tooth beaver? he'll do quite the number on those nerve endings.

and rather than crawling over the passenger side, you should just keep the window down and get in like the Dukes.

Yes, I do feel a bit like I'm falling apart, but I am not sure what you mean by the "tooth beaver".

And about the car, don't you think I haven't thought about that! Wearing a skirt doesn't always make it easy though...

sometimes i forget that obscure ren and stimpy references just aren't second nature to everyone else. disregard.

skirt solution. head first! i think colleen becoming the master of running head first dives is quite certainly within the realm of possibility. believe!
