May 24

So, this happened this afternoon. I had a lot of fun just fucking around, walking and talking with Esteban at Whihala beach.

He texted me saying he wanted to get some coffee so I showered and picked him up and we headed to Dunkin again and sat there for a good hour talking. We got into a big discussion about death and funerals….

After that, I parked by the beach and we walked toward the park and there were some construction happening but the parks were free.

We watched moving art and read graffiti[I love/appreciate good graffiti] and swung on the swings and you can see from my face how horrible it was[it wasn’t] and we just hopped from one playground to the next.

I definitely had fun today. I dropped him off and headed home where I now finish rewatching Arrested Development and yaahh, wait for work to strike.

Ignore my face in the bottom photo. I have no ides what face I’m making.

This is my friend Steven. Also known as Esteban, Steve, Stephen.

This was the last photo we took together and it was at a get together my/our friend Bob was throwing and it says a lot about our friendship.

I just felt like posting something about him because he and I always spend a shit ton amount of time with each other because we’re always broke and we’re always bored. Why not be bored together?

He usually accompanies me on my trips to my job for my paycheck and we usually get coffee or lunch, depending on the feel of things and what have yous, and today he did that and we ended up getting coffee and a doughnut at Dunkin.

We always have the best conversations and the best jokes. We literally sat at Dunkin drinking for a good hour or so and he just bursts out laughing for no reason at a sign getting blown away outside.

This dude, I tell ya’. He’s amazing.

I’m incredibly thankful he’s my best friend and he’s in my life. We’ve met in ‘09 and we clicked sort of instantly. We’ve had moments where we’d be mad at each other or I’d be mad at him[yaahhh] and we wouldn’t talk or see each other for a month, but that’s what’s funny about our friendship…we can be like that but still pick up like nothing happened.

We talk so much shit and we just get one another. Dude’s a great friend. I don’t know what I’d do without him. We’ve gone through a lot of obstacles and battles in our friendship and even around our friendship that it made us close.

-shrugs- I love this dude. He’s made up of coffee, bacon and whiskey. What more could you ask for ina friend?

This is my coworker, Kytrell. He’s one of my favorites from this new store.

So, turns out we’re on Chex cereal. How about that?

1:16 AM.

I came home quite early from spending time with my boyfriend. Since last Sunday, I haven’t seen him. I picked him up early Friday morning to drop him off at Kyle’s for their trip to ACEN.

So, we didn’t really get to spend time together..

Anyway, ever since I got home it’s been nothing but Will Ferrell movies on TBS and cool/interesting chats with Isabel and Kytrell.

What I’m trying to say is, my night/morning is cool.

The Office Finale Party.

My friend Tana is having a get together for her husbands birthday tonight and it’s an Office party for the finale. I haven’t watched any of these episodes of season 9 on Thursday like everyone else.

My boyfriend got Hulu a few months back and I was tempted to just watch one for a treat to myself and it slowly became one every night to two every night to waiting for 3 or 4 to come out on hulu and well, I just watched the 2nd to last episode right now and it had me bawling.

Anyway, tonight we watch the finale and I will have completed an entire season before the DVD comes out. That’s never happened. I’m shocked it happened but also a bit relieved because Tumblr spoils the shit out of E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G.

So, now my emotions are ina rut and I’m extremely BEYOND sad that The Office is over.

The Office is my life. I watch it every time I’m bored, I watch it every night before bed. I watch it on my phone, fucking — everywhere!

If I could, I’d have every bit of Office detail, merch, anything you can think of, but alas the world doesn’t work that way for me.

I’ve been fortunate to have the things I do have such as the “World’s best boss” mug and y’know what? The one my boyfriend got me for Christmas two years ago, my grandma had broken it and a friend gave me a new one for my birthday last year.

I have the Dwight bobble head and even a mini one. I even have a mini “World’s best boss” mug ornament.

But that isn’t the point of this blog.

I clearly love The Office. I can’t wait til tonight.

I even wrote this a while back in dedication for the Office and Office things related :3

I hate having money but not really having money.

Last night at 10PM the Riot Fest’s lineup went public. This caused the website to go on the fritz and fuck with me because I had gotten off of work at 11 and didn’t get home til about 11:30.

So, the website is being a total shit head and everyone is telling me they’re checking shit off of Facebook. Well guys, if you hadn’t noticed, I haven’t been on Facebook for about two weeks now. I can’t see what you see.

Lo and behold, I get an e-mail from DO312. I check their link to ticketfly.com and they have a 99$ option for the 3 day passes/tickets and it came out to 112$. I’m thinking “ok, not bad. I can do that”.

Check Riot Fest’s website now, it finally let me through and I had seen this 69$ package my boyfriend had told me about, and even more cheaper packages they were like 10$ more but obviously there all sold out but this 109$ package.

That comes out to 124$. I’m kind of bummed because I didn’t want to spend anymore from this money I have put away already y’know?

So, to keep myself from freaking the fuck out because this year is full of awesome as fuck bands and nothing but nostalgia, I have to go, I’m going to dip into my car insurance money to buy my tickets. It’s the only thing I can do to keep me sane.

It’s horrible and I didn’t wanna do it but I have to.

What’s the point in writing this, nobody cares.

I’m just going insane because I’m poor and everyone around me is buying their tickets like NOTHING where I’m sitting here with “FUCK ME” on my forehead.

So, later tonight when I get off of work at 11, I’ll have my tickets.

Fuck you :3

I have a problem. I’m putting a lot into the basement and I threw out a lot. Shits tough, I have emotional attachment to everything I own.

I never wanna spend or receive anything anymore. Except music. I’ll take music any minute of any day.

Oi….

This is my stack of AP’s that have been piling up for a while on my chest in my room.

These are issues #275 - 299. My subscription is coming to and end and I don’t think I’m gonna renew it :/ it makes me real sad because I’ve been with AP since I started High school. My first Warped Tour was in 2003 and that’s where I had gotten a free sample of an AP and I’ve been a subscriber ever since.

[I have issues #274 and so forth in my closet. It’s a HUGE pile and I am missing some and it’s quite fucked up. There is an issue I had that had Tim Armstrong on the cover with a side profile shot and he had a rad mohawk, that one is going for a lot of money and it’s not that I’m mad that I can’t sell it — I’m pissed off because I appreciate these little shits]

Lately though, whenever I get a new issue, I glance at it and put it on the pile with the others that aren’t in my closet [the photos above] and I forget about them and by the time I do read them, the shit that was happening already happened. Granted, that’s my fault but I also seen that I get more information now from friends and absolutepunk.

Also, the zines are thinning and they keep pushing their electric zine for my ipad or what have yous and I don’t own it and I prefer paperbacks/books/whatever over any electronic book thing.

It also sucks because I’m anal when it comes to ripping shit out of my magazines for my walls and stuff so these magazines are just gonna grow old with me. I don’t wanna ruin them. Some of them have torn pages and edges but that’s what happens.

I was sorting these to make them in order and I see papers in between the pages of where I left off.

So many good bands came out of this zine and so many good interviews and reviews are in there to read over and over.

I miss when AP used to be awesome. They’re just there now :/

If I wasn’t so lazy, I’d tell you what my first issue # was.

You wanna know how obsessed I was with this zine? The ones I had missing, I checked to see if they had on their website so I could order them to have a perfect ‘set’. Some are just gone now :/ This is what happens when you take them to high school or let people barrow your shit.

Had a good run with you, AP. I hope you last. I remember I had a plan to work for you after I graduated college. I’d still do it if given the chance but isn’t it funny when you think about shit like this that you thought of 7 years ago?
