Why can't this world be only me and the select few that I choose to live in it with me?
I can't stand ignorant people who are allowed to work in with the public. Some people shouldn't be allowed to answer phones, make calls or breathe in general.
Why can't everyone be perfect, like me?

For Good
Wicked song of the day (this one is stuck in my head)
ELPHABA
You’re the only friend I’ve ever had.
GLINDA
And I’ve had so many friends. But only one-- that mattered.(sings)
I’VE HEARD IT SAID
THAT PEOPLE COME INTO OUR LIVES FOR A REASON
BRINGING SOMETHING WE MUST LEARN
AND WE ARE LED
TO THOSE WHO HELP US MOST TO GROW
IF WE LET THEM
AND WE HELP THEM IN RETURN
WELL, I DON’T KNOW IF I BELIEVE THAT’S TRUE
BUT I KNOW I’M WHO I AM TODAY
BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
LIKE A COMET PULLED FROM ORBIT
LIKE A COMET PULLED FROM ORBIT
AS IT PASSES A SUN
LIKE A STREAM THAT MEETS A BOULDER
LIKE A STREAM THAT MEETS A BOULDER
HALFWAY THROUGH THE WOOD
WHO CAN SAY IF I’VE BEEN CHANGED FOR THE BETTER?
BUT BECAUSE I KNEW YOU
I HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR GOOD …
ELPHABA
IT WELL MAY BE
THAT WE WILL NEVER MEET AGAIN IN THIS LIFETIME
SO LET ME SAY BEFORE WE PART
SO MUCH OF ME
IS MADE OF WHAT I LEARNED FROM YOU
YOU’LL BE WITH MELIKE A HANDPRINT ON MY HEART
AND NOW WHATEVER WAY OUR STORIES END
I KNOW YOU HAVE RE-WRITTEN MINE
BY BEING MY FRIEND...
LIKE A SHIP BLOWN FROM ITS MOORING
LIKE A SHIP BLOWN FROM ITS MOORING
BY A WIND OFF THE SEA
LIKE A SEED DROPPED BY A SKYBIRD
IN A DISTANT WOOD
WHO CAN SAY IF I’VE BEEN CHANGED FOR THE BETTER?
BUT BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
GLINDA
BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
BOTH
BECAUSE I KNEW YOU
I HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR GOOD...
ELPHABA
AND JUST TO CLEAR THE AIR
I ASK FORGIVENESS
FOR THE THINGS I’VE DONE YOU BLAME ME FOR
GLINDA
BUT THEN, I GUESS WE KNOW
THERE’S BLAME TO SHARE
BOTH
AND NONE OF IT SEEMS TO MATTER ANYMORE
[They sing simultaneously]
[They sing simultaneously]
GLINDA
LIKE A COMET PULLED FROM ORBIT
AS IT PASSES A SUN
LIKE A STREAM THAT MEETS A BOULDER
HALF-WAY THROUGH THE WOOD
ELPHABA
LIKE A SHIP BLOWN OFF ITS MOORING
BY A WIND OFF THE SEA
LIKE A SEED DROPPED BY A
BIRD IN
THE WOOD
BOTH
BOTH
WHO CAN SAY IF I’VE BEEN CHANGED FOR THE BETTER?
I DO BELIEVE I HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR THE BETTER
GLINDA
AND BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
ELPHABA
BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
BOTH
BECAUSE I KNEW YOU...
I HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR GOOD.
Wicked!
That's right. The time is finally here. I'm going to see Wicked.
I went last June in Chicago and have been obsessed every since. I've had these tickets since November and I can't believe the day finally here!
I just hope it's as good as I remember and I hope that the people I'm going with love it as much as I want them too. I've been really trying to pump them up. They haven't been jumping up and down when I talk about them. I, however, bounce off the walls when I talk about it! :)

True embarrassment
My friend and I were 90 miles from home in a smaller town Walmart. We had just spent over two hours at the beach. We're burnt to a crisp and looking tired. She is wearing some cut off jean shorts and her swimming suit, boobs smooshed flat, no make up, hair in a ponytail. I'm wearing a swimming suit, jogging shorts, and a short sleeve jean shirt and some old, ugly sandals from K-Mart. I'm 60 lbs more than I was in high school, I have zero make up on, eyes are puffy from the sun and heat, and my hair is messed up from lake water and in a bun on top of my head. We've got six kids with us ranging in age of 13 - 3 and they're running wild.
We're walking down an isle and we run into someone from high school. My friend that I was with used to have a serious crush on him. He's there looking great with his pretty wife and nice looking kids.
I don't think we could look as bad as we looked if we tried! This was just pure bad looks at it's best. You always think your safe when you're miles from home. Here's proof that you're never safe no matter where you go! We turned down the next isle and laughed so hard and just couldn't stop.

Body Worlds
Yesterday, I went to the Body Worlds exhibit at the Science Museum. It was pretty interesting for the most part but some of the body displays got a little too bizarre and it all started looking the same.
The process of plastination is really amazing. There were displays of entire humans and animals made up of only blood vessels. The real deal. There were many many organs displayed. Healthy lungs, smoker's lungs, cancerous lungs, livers, bones, arteries, ovaries, fetuses, embryos. I think the best display I saw was a pregnant woman laying on her side belly and baby exposed. Yeah, it could be considered disturbing by some but there was something beautiful about it.
I think it's worth seeing. It's something that gets a bit boring after a while (it took two hours to go through) but looking back and remembering everything is making me like it more.

What was THAT about?!
6/6/06 - The date was apparently in my sub-conscious.
Lots of lightening and thunder last night. I couldn't get my condo cooled down. I went to bed on the couch to be right under the AC. I tossed and turned until about 1 a.m. I think I woke up every hour or so - wide awake.
My dreams were scary. I was at a house, your typical suburban rambler, it was a nice sunny day. I had an object... what was it? I can't remember. I was trying to throw it away. I threw it in the garden and it came back at me. I threw it at another garden and again, it came back at me. Finally I was able to get it to stay. I went inside, sat near the window, opened the curtain and the object was sitting outside on the window sill. This was terrifying.... for obvious reasons, right?
I ran into a bedroom to tell Gabrielle and Carlos Solis (yes, from Desperate Housewives ). I told them all about what happened. We started packing things up to get out but some force in the house was pushing us back and locking the doors.
Suddenly I'm with my mom and step dad. We're all heading out to go to work. I told my mom I couldn't stay in this house alone. Also, I had to get my cats out. . Next thing I know I'm doing some kind of exorcism shit yelling at the house "In the name of God, get out! In the name of God, you are not welcome here!" I was screaming and crying as yelling this over and over. It was the kind of thing where I wonder if I was talking in my sleep.
I woke up scared to death and it's stuck with me all day. I think I need to stop watching so many scary movies.... and Desperate Housewives.

Oh you crazy neighbor you!
I come home at about 7:30 last night, come up the stairs and see Donna (drunken neighbor) passed out in the lobby. She's sitting slumped in a chair just chillin'. I go to my place to drop off my load and as I pass her place the door is wide open. Oh boy.
I go back to her, say her name a couple times and finally gently shake her and finally get a grunt out of her.
Donna: Huh.
Me: Donna, are you okay?
D: Huh (grunt)
Me: Your in the lobby and your apartment door is open. What are you doing?
D: What's this about (she still hasn't opened her eyes or raised her head)
Me: Donna, you're in the lobby. You should go back home. Your door is standing open.
D: (grunt)
Me: Are you going to just stay out here?
D: (grunt)
I walk back to my place go inside and as I'm closing the door I hear her yelling...
D: Darling! Hello? Darling!
I go to her and notice her pants are unzipped. What the hell?
D: I need you to do me a favor. I need you to close up my house.
I tell her I'll close her door for her. I go back, close the door and continue back to my place. As I turn to look down the hall here she comes stumbling along. She says she doesn't have her keys. I tell her I hope it's not locked. I try the knob, it's open and she continues into her apartment.
At least it's quite.
