IT WAS 4 MINUTES OF 2

or rather 3 minutes of 4, when i cut out of work
i went really slow, though, so i'd be out at the right time
i hate work.
the only thing i actually like about it is the money
the people ain't so bad, but i could do without them
and the customers have been nice so far for the most part
but my feet hurt so much, and my back and neck and shoulders ache
i'd probably be better off working with lauren and getting my ass kicked by retards
more money, anyway, and i'd get to sit down for a while
better yet, i could call the security guard people some more
like that'd get anything done.
today was the crappiest day i've had so far.
sold 2 out of stock products
i had to get up way too early this morning
8am is a sucky time to wake up.
about the only good part was that i got to see lauren
and take my break a bit early cause she was there

got me a zesty chicken bowl from taco bell
wasn't bad
a bit small though
the way they advertise it, it looks huge, but no
tiny.

and then i had the absence of mind to lock lauren's keys in her car
which is the car i've been using lately

anyway, in stark contrast, last thursday was awesome
like, the best day i'd had that week
i had it off of work, so that was spectacular in itself
but wait, there's more
i got to have a little bedroom type fun with lauren in the morning
and then i called sarah and phil to see what was up with tmbg
AND THEN I WENT TO SEE TMBG FOR FREE
at borders where sarah works
phil and dan were in the same room, and being happy and friendly towards one another
kristina and hannah were there
hannah's huge now
i think she's 3, but i'm not sure
i got to eat a couple of kristina's nachos
then i bought NO! which is a great album, and if you don't like it, i should be allowed to beat your head in and with the aid of a blunt instrument.
then they played a really really good show, about 7 songs long
which was just dandy and lovely
some guy stole linnell's setlist, otherwise i'd have asked for it
then they sat down and signed stuff
i forgot to tell flansy that i saw his likeness on a paintcan full of liquid smoke in the cafe
but i think i may be better off for it
i FINALLY have linnell's autograph, which made me really happy
i asked if i could touch his accordion (not play, just touch, though i didn't specify)
he said he'd rather i didn't, cause it was being realy tempermental
(the e flat diminished or something had been sticking down before they were able to play)
which i thought was rather sensible, and didn't mind at all
then later, me, phil, and sarah went to get hot dogs at spike's
so delicious, lemme tell ya
then, me and phil had time to kill, cause we were going to see starwars in the mall
so we went back, and dan was still there, watching them pack up
so he talked to phil, and me, i went up and sat patiently on the sidelines of
like, a ten minute conversation between john linnell and some guy i don't know
and finally, it ended, and i talked to linnell again
he thanked me for coming to the show
and i told him i'd asked about touching his accordion, and it was fine that i couldn't
and then asked if i could touch the case instead, as the accordion was safe inside
to which john "i'm supremely nice" linnell said sure
and then i touched is accordion case just as some lady was trying to walk away with it
(not steal it, she was apparently allowed to)
so that was really cool too.
i said thanks and walked off.
how cool is all that?!

then, it was about time for me and phil to mosey over to the cinema part of the mall
and wait for beth and joe (who is beth's brother)
so we did, and they came, and i saw starwars for the 5th time
i think me and lauren are even again now
everyone so far agrees with me about the yoda fight scene being the best thing in it
BECAUSE IT IS.
we cracked a few jokes at the movie's expense, it was fun
then after, we discussed how george lucas has completely forgotten
how to write a starwars movie
which is pathetic
i mean, he couldn't even write proper yodaspeak
how can you not write proper yodaspeak?!
the easiest thing in the world, it is.
no way, there is, to mess it up!
but somehow managed to do so, he has!
ARGH!

well, i'm gonna go see if there's a way to get the keys out of lauren's car
i'd like to get them out of there, if possible.
grr. today sucked.
