Eeek

My sister watched that infamous movie of those four aged women play like they're in their twenties.

Why do central americans hate Mexico's futbol? I say because they're jealous and poor. poorer to be exact. haha.

Going to work has become a monotonous; same thing every day. It's not that I don't like my work it's just it' s been three months! And people were exasperated from listening to 90.1 all the time and they have started to take the radio back, which means either the same crappy songs over and over or country. ugh.


I think I felt my skin age as I got another wrinkle on my forehead.

I don't know why but I read the Glass Castle, it made me angry at the parents, and it's sad that there are people that are lazy and unrealistic that see no problem with their children going hungry or being filthy and dressed in rags.

A happy note to end with, my hair doesn't look that bad when humid outside.

Limbo

Oh man, hahaha, fuck finaid.

------------------------------

I wonder where homeless people go to get cleaned up, there's this bum that I see quite often, well actually every day. He's black and has his hair in small fuzzy things? I don't know what they're called, but from time to time I see him carry his belongings in three huge suitcases, usually around St. Joseph's hospital. He wears a large gray coat mostly in the fall and in the summer shorts, but last time I saw him showered and dressed in clean clothes. He was wearing jeans and a yellow stripped polo, I suppose he suffers from schizophrenia because he talks to himself and hits the "spirits" on his body. Today I saw him in very dirty clothes and he smelled fowl, but he had a cellular and was riding the rail. He seemed lucid.

Then at this starbucks another homeless I see around today looked clean cut, he kept taking the free samples and sleeping in the sofas. From time to time he would walk outside and act like he was looking for someone, I dunno it was strange. Also at another starbucks there's this African bum who smells like B.O X 10, I swear it's awful, he does the same thing except he sits outside. I guess it's hard to fill up your day when you have nothing to do or nowhere to stay.

I finally went to the Co-Cathedral and it is beautiful. Mass went really fast.

Ten days went by so fast.

Oh yeah! I dreamt that El Gordo Molina opened a restaurant and there was a promotion for a free dinner, he was nice and I got to ask him questions and such. The restaurant was in this huge black bus, then since I didn't finish my food I decided to take it home in a brown bag. It was just beans with yellow cheese and some chips, then Martha Stewart was the hostess and she said I was bad mannered, to which I tried to hide it. I walked into a patio garden with old white stones and then into a boat. Yes I have weird dreams.

Wham

Yeah, the drama of being poor continues.

I seriously will give up if I don't obtain a better living style it's so sad to not rise above your parents' failures and resent them in term for not facilitating your career.

Anyway, as the temperature continues to rise so does my discontent with the current state of my stagnating situation. In terms of employment I have grown more ambitious being exposed to brilliant people at this place I frequent so I am considering searching for better options. Albeit I have no idea where I can find a place so flexible with my schedule, hopefully either something improves or I am given an opportunity somewhere else. I don't want to "jinx" myself so enough about such talk.

There is a lady that has become infatuated with my father, and while I would normally encourage this type of interaction she has become scary. I don't know how many lies she has told or how many times suspicion has risen in the many conversations they seem to have but as long as she provides some sort of entertainment for him I have no problem.

Also, I tried the Arizona green tea lemonade and it tastes the same as starbucks version it is also cheaper at .99 rather than well over three dollars for the same amount. I guess it's not as becoming to sip a from a big 23 oz can than from one of their plastic cups. Oh well.

I don't understand the need of black people to talk "black" it's astounding to listen to the change in their language once they stop talking to other people and huddle with their black friends. Why? Is it some sort of taboo to speak correctly?
I have an abhorrence to such things, as well as the need to butcher any language spoken by the region the person comes from.

Oprah hosted Jeffrey Eugenides in her show, I'm apprehensive to retain my appreciation of Middlesex, I feel it has been tainted by her morbid curiosity of intersex people, the show wasn't about the book it was about intersex persons. People should really read more, and I'm referring to scientific papers or even more science magazines. They wouldn't look as ignorant as they do on TV.

One last thing, Olympics. Since Mexico failed to qualify in the soccer tournament, I shall root for Brazil and Ronnie. I hope he finds the inspiration he needs and returns to being magical. I like how Diego and Rafinha ran away from their club teams to play in the Olympics, haha, awesome!
Oh yeah, enjoy the rain for this week.
