Halloween.

I don't understand how I'm sick for almost every Halloween. Right now I sound like a duck. I missed school today because I was running a fever this morning. I need to write the professor an email, to see what I've missed. Today's payday, so Jesse and I are going to PetSmart to get Bella a new house. I need to move my car into my driveway that way no stupid kids decided to shaving cream it or turn it on it's side. Jesse and I are relaxing tonight, I don't have work. We're going to hang out and watch movies. :D I'm excited :D.
I'm also excited to FREAKING FEEL BETTER.
Oh, and I got dragged into Facebook, again. :[

Ridiculous.



Yesterday's Pepper experience was nothing short of amazing. The entire day, great things happened. We get into the city, and eat Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., and the waitress gives us directions on how to get to Irving Plaza without a taxi. +1. Then, we go to Irving Plaza, and run into Kaleo and Melanie, at the Galaxy Eatery. We chat a little, and go to Union Square to explore Obama Fest. Jesse and I are relaxing, looking at the little merchant booth things, and all of a sudden: A FUCKING ZOMBIE INVASION! I'm totally serious. So we brave through the crowd of 200+ zombies, then we go back to the Galaxy to get something to drink. [Zombie slaying is exhausting] And we run into Brett, who SHOULD HAVE told us something VERY important, but was wrapped up in the game. So we keep going back and forth between Union Square and the Fillmore at Irving Plaza, passing time. And, Jesse and I found free, un-accounted for [because we DID check] money. YAY! FREE MONEY! ON THE FLOOR! WITH NOBODY TO CLAIM IT! WOOHOO!
Blahblah-fastforward. Met up with Erik. Watched Passafire from the top deck of the venue. Went to the lower part to see The Supervillains, and pushed to the front to see Pepper. I do believe that I only made it through 20 seconds of the first Pepper song up there. I got very overheated, and started hyperventilating, and started to cry. Jesse got me to the security guards, who escorted me in front of the stage to the trick staircase under the floor, back up to the main lobby, to the medic. The medics kept asking if I had too much to drink or smoke, but I did neither. Then they told me that I had an anxiety attack while I was in the crowd because I got too hot and couldn't handle it. So I waited outside for some fresh air, and they gave me a water bottle that I finished off within 5 minutes. So Jesse asked Pepper's merch dude: The Intern if he'd get me some water, so he did. Then the Coach came out and asked Jesse what happened, and Jesse told him I got overheated. Blahblah-fastforward. We went back in and spoke with Ted from Passafire, of whom is a TERRIBLY nice guy. And we went to see the ass-end of Pepper's set. The Coach came up for their encore, and made a comment about it being too hot in the venue, Jesse told me that he said it for me because he knew that I had to leave. So they played, it was great. Afterwards, we went BACK to the Galaxy and ate some Un-Chicken drumsticks, which were yummy. And we met up with Kaleo and Melanie again, and got proof that we know them, finally, because I FINALLY had a camera to take a picture with. We spoke to them for a while, told them that I had to leave because I couldn't breathe, and Melanie was like "Oh noo!" She was so nice, and Kaleo was like "OMG WTF?!?!??!?! ARE YOU OKAY?!?!?@#%$@#%#$%^" again, nice people. Upon parting, Kaleo gave me the stern command of "DONT GET OVERHEATED ANYMORE OKAY?!@" Haha. Then we went to meet up with Brett, and he finally told us that he meant to tell us but for some reason didn't, that, "I recognized you when you rolled into the Galaxy... I should've told you that there was a man and woman sitting just where you guys sat, before you, and as the man was eating his food, he started screaming 'WHAT THE FUCK IM NOT PAYING FOR MY FOOD!' and then my wife and I saw a cockroach crawling around the bar's surface, and the dude smashed it with his cigarette box. I mean, it was ONE little roach, it's not that big of a deal, you know." and Jesse and I were struck in horror because we had just eaten there. Brett was like, "I really don't know why I didn't tell you guys.... I'm sorry" Then they proceeded to talk equipment, Brett asked us if Remy did a good job with their sound... I told him that it knocked me on my ass. And they were talking gear, gear gear, and I was sitting there thinking that this is just like talking about different kinds of cheese. Jesse told Brett that I'm learning about instruments and stuff, and Brett was like, awesome, you're learning about each others shit... then he took pictures with us as proof that we know him, too. We caught his personal e-mail address. SCORE. Then we went home. We had to all take a taxi to Jesse's house and then Jesse dropped us off at each of our houses because Erik's sister Jenna was supposed to pick us up, but never answered her phone. I got home, mom got mad. End of the night.


Kaleo, Jesse, Me, Erik

Brett, Jesse, Me.

On a Sunday morning...

So, the two weeks from Hell are over. GOOD. Now I get to start another two loong weeks. But, maybe being off from work on Halloween will help speed it along a little bit; especially since it's payday.

On Friday, Jesse's brother came in from Boston. We all ate pizza and played Music Scene It?. Then yesterday, we went over by the brand new Tanger Outlets in Deer Park, and looked around there for the second time. They have a PacSun outlet that's mundo cheap! And they've got a lot of beach stores that are still awaiting to be open. Today, Jesse, Erik, and I are going out to the city at around 12-ish. We're going to see Pepper at the Fillmore at Irving Plaza, so we're going to hang out in the city until 7 when the concert starts. I just formatted my memory card, and charged up my battery, so maybe, JUST MAYBE I'll have some DeviantArt worthy photos to FINALLY update my account.

Today I joined 'Twitter' which is like Facebook, only without the narcissism and you only get to work with one-liners. It's pretty cool... except nobody I know has it... so I'm kind of lonely on there. I'm doing what I can to stop using Facebook... this is my weening period. Haha.

Wednesday is my Stars and Constellations test in Astronomy for the Fall and Winter sky... and I do believe that it is quite difficult to just name one star out of a million, and put a constellation together out of nowhere... but I'm getting good at it.

It's time for me to get ready to go to the city. It's 9:11, and we're leaving for the train at 11:45... and I'm a girl so I should prob. get a head start on the guys. AHAHAHAHANOTFUNNY.

Weeeekend.

Tomorrow starts a whole new week :], thankfully. Last week was the week from hell. Seriously. On Monday a "patron" at Ballys threatened to "hunt me down", Tuesday I reported it, and the patron tried to follow me home. Wednesday, I relished the day off, but had to take two tests :[, Thursday, I had to take the rest of my Music midterm, and then I went to work, where I found out that the patron's membership is only being revoked for a week for now. Then on Friday, I went to 1st Precinct to file charges, so that they could do nothing and send me to the Courthouse in Central Islip, so that they could do nothing and send me back to the Police, so I called 1st Precinct and asked what I had to do, and they sent me to 3rd Precinct because the incident happened in their jurisdiction. So I filed the paperwork and everything.

On the brightside, at the start of my weekend, I got to wash my car [inside & out], and help mom rake leaves. But, last night I got sick because I got a pumpkin latte from 7-11, because I wanted to get an Obama cup, and the latte made me very sick. The latte and some cookies served as my dinner at 9pm, which is why and how I got sick. Jesse was there and he was taking care of me <3. Last night the Islanders lost. Sucks. But I got to go to my dad's house and hang with him for a while to pick up the Suffolk County firefighting handbook thing. I found out then that my dad's the only Obama supporter in his household. So Jesse and I told him to stay strong, haha.

And today is Sunday. I have lots of stuff to do today. I need to start writing my paper for First Aid on firefighting, I need to start writing my Psychology papers, and I need to study for Wednesday Astronomy test. And, I need to study my constellations... there's going to be a test on that, soon, too. :[

I have no political banter for today. But the Election sure is a hot topic. And I only notice, because I'm finally old enough to vote, and this is my first election! :D I didn't notice if there was any commotion during the Bush election, though now I know that there was a buttload of commotion because the babbling idiot technically shouldn't have been elected.

Math Debate?

Last night was the third and last Presidential debate. It was at Hofstra, which is like.. 20 minutes from my house. Yaay, Long Island! Jesse and I were going to go to the debate, but decided against it, supposedly Hofstra and Nassau Community College were zoo's.

The debate was ridiculous, McCain's going to try to get rid of teaching certifications. Which means that anyone off the street can be a teacher, which is utterly retarded. He also is pushing really, really hard for the offshore drilling being a regularly re-occuring thing. Gay!

But, Richard Lewis was on the Daily Show and made last night better. Plus, Jesse and I carved our pumpkin! <3

Thanks, A Lot PETA....

Nah, I'm just kidding... there's like a 90% chance that PETA didn't have anything to do with this....

"Huge, Freed Pet Pythons Invade Florida"
"Fla. Scientists Hunt Predatory Pythons"

"The ecological outlook is equally grim. Second only to habitat loss, invasive species are a leading cause of species endangerment and extinction both in the United States and worldwide. Almost half of the species on the U.S. endangered species list are threatened wholly or partly by introduced species. Steven A. Williams, director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, calls invasive species the number one environmental threat to the United States."

Last night, when I was out with Jesse at Looney Tunes to meet Pete Best, I overheard John and Jaime talking about these pythons that John saw a special on, on the History Channel or something. John was saying that these pythons are growing big enough to expand their jaws to be wide enough to fit over adult male bodies. So, those of whom are in the Everglades, could possibly be taken in their sleep by these gigantic pythons.

John was also talking about Polar Bears and Brown Bears beginning to mate, creating the world's largest, most ferocious bear... ever. But apparently, this is old news...


Anywho, Jesse and I met Pete Best last night. He was the original drummer of the Beatles. He was alll buisness. Seriously. But that's okay, we got to hang out with the entertaining cast of Looney Tunes, and it was a fun night out with my love <3.

Tonight I have work. Boooo! And, tomorrow's going to be one of those long days again. But! I don't have work! YAAY!

So, I think I'm done... there's nothing really new and exciting left... well, other than that Jesse bought Bella a leash! I CAN WALK MAH BUNNAY!! :D
Ok, now I'm done.
