BEST BIRTHDAY EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
Turned 22 on Wednesday.
Went to NOLA last weekend.
Wake up on my birthday and find out that everything went exactly as I wanted to while I was asleep.
SB5 in Texas dies.
DOMA unconstitutional.
Prop 8 killed.
Gay marriage happening RIGHT NOW in California. I might just have to move there Gym.
Had the best birthday party in a long ass time on Wednesday.
Went out with the fam.
Then had a party at a lesbian club and all of my closest and even not so close friends all came out.
Abbi the bartender and I are friends again but I am in no way cool with Tina, her girlfriend and the club's shitty DJ.
I got to party, sing karaoke, drink tequila even though I'm usually banned from tequila at the bar because a bitch will get crazy and want to hump everything with tits.
Saw a girl I used to have it bad for and we made out a loooooottttt. And then some. Oops. I feel dirty. Especially because my right arm looks like a cat attacked it, but she just has some really sharp nails and a really good grip. Needless to say, I have to take cold showers for a few days.
And noooowwwww...I'm about to put on my shoes and head out to see Cyndi Lauper!!!! She's playing all of her very first album, She's So Unusual, so that means Money Changes Everything, Time After Time, I Drove All Night, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, He's So Unusual, ect. 8DD
It's a good week to be a lesbian AND have a birthday.

Hey Sweetheart!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!

I am so glad to hear you had a good time, I have missed you lots and want to hear all about you ^^!!

[Deleted]

Thank you boo!!!! <3 I know you had a birthday recently if I remember correctly and I'm not gonna cheat and look at your profile. It was...June 21st, right? Or 27th? Or 25th? I feel like it was somewhere right around mine. But no cheating for meeee! SO HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO YOU TOO!!!!!!!!!

Miss you too love! <3

I've been pretty awesome. Went through a reallllyyy dark period that lasted a good 5 months. Just one thing after another, thought about suicide a few times but thankfully I don't have the balls to get anywhere past the thought part and then I just move past that whole part. But lots and lots of bad. Got screwed over by some chicks that I thought were really good friends but turns out they were playin me for shits and giggles. I just made up with one of them, but the other one, things are pretty far gone between us. Civil, but that's about it. Finally got completely over my fear of driving at night and for long distances, went on 1300 miles worth of road trips this month and that really helps. xD Dallas and New Orleans. Hung out with some good friends. Best birthday ever. I got ditched out on my birthday trip by my best friend the day before the trip, along with another girl I had invited, but I got back at that other girl. She's in love with Pit Bulls and Parolees and I'm friends with the family and some of the parolees, and on my birthday weekend I hung out with everyone's favorite ex-parolee from the show, she was super jealous. xD
Also, I quit smoking cigarettes like 3 months ago, woowooooo! And I've majorly cut down on my drinking. I was drinking pretty heavily almost every day of the week, now I'm drinking like once or twice a week, if even. So I've cut those bad habits out of my life or massively downsized.
Just been getting myself out of that depression funk. Got back on my bipolar meds and they've evened me out a looooot and I just feel way better and more social and things don't get to me so easily. Or my fuse isn't so short is probably more like it. I've been having to work on my temper a lot more ever since my hand got broken in my car wreck, I can't punch walls any more. I already have arthritis in my right hand, and I really don't want to break the screws or dent the plate or re-shatter the bones, hahaha. So I guess blessing in disguise.
And uhhh...hmm...about to hop in the shower and head out to gay pride! I kind of don't wanna go, but when got babes are begging you to come out, you kind of don't have much of an option. Plus, I'm half hoping that Cyndi Lauper will show up. I mean the band that is opening for her on tour, Hunter Valentine, is going to be at Pride after parties and probably at Pride as well. So I think Cyndi should as well. I mean she stopped her show last night to praise Senator Wendy Davis and talk about Stonewall and Prop 8 and DOMA. So come on, she has to be at a gay pride, and why not the biggest one in the southern USA?

[Deleted]

PS, how you been?

[Deleted]

ermahgerd. I do not recommend going to ANY festival or parade when everything around you is registering between 103 and 110 degrees outside. SO SWEATY AND HOT. Took one jello shot and got sick as hell.
BUUUUT. I got to meet my friend's girlfriend finally.
I'm the only person who knows she's a lesbian. And her girlfriend was super cool.
And since I like my ego stroked, I liked her even more because she thought I was the shit, hahaha.
We were going to find beer along Westheimer and found someone selling some damn strong jello shots and right next to it people were having a dance party and I just joined in, and my friend got a video of me sandwiched between two super attractive chicks gettin my groove on. xDD And we stayed there for like 20 minutes so I could dance up on chicks and get down. I did the dougie and the cat daddy. Then we were closer to where I was parked so we could take my car to some other bars and they were playing the wobble and I darted across the street to do the wobble.
Needless to say, I'm one popular white bitch at these things. xD
No racism intended, but a lot of white chicks at events just wanna hear like...Lady Gaga and shit. Sorry, but black girls and hispanic girls know what's up. They had some amazing jams goin on.
And as an added ego stroke, I stuck out as a white chick and they loved the shit out of me. xD

[Meredith]

Ahahaha! You should have cheated XD

For some reason I thought our birthdays were close too, but mine is Oct. 29th XD

Erm my life is pretty much the usual. Though, I got a new job, got promoted to management, got a couple of raises- oh and of course there is a new boy...

There is always a new bf, right? And honestly we are seriously shakey right now- whats new? He is trying to move down to S.A. but I don't know if we will survive until then, I hate long distance, even if its only been a month so far of him being away....

But off of that vague explanation of my love life...

Ariel, I got asked out by my friend's wife yesterday! Haha, They are apparently looking for a girlfriend for her and were all feeling me out about it-then he came right out and asked me. I was pretty shocked XD

I have missed you darlin, really! Why have we never met up?

~Swissy

[Deleted]

Oh yeah, our birthdays are definitely not close at all. xDD

That's sweet that you got promotions and raises though!! It means you're workin' hard and people like you!

Always gotta be a boy, bahahaha. At least one of us is dating! It makes the world go round, haha. It sucks that he wants to move though, long distance is definitely hard. But you can make it work. It just literally is a lot of work to keep things going. But it means road trips! Mini vacays. Best part, hahaha. And you should totally be the wife's girlfriend. I'm just sayin. While you're young, you can call it experimentation and no one can blame you. Plus, women are the best. Better kissers, better in bed, soft skin, nice butts, boobs, soft lips...basically everything.

I've missed you too! And I have no idea! D8 I never go to SA, at least not yet. I always stop off at Austin for weekends. xD I mean, it's Austin. I can take my pit bull everywhere.

[Meredith]

Sorry for falling silent, work is exhausting me T-T.

One of my employees annoys the hell out of me too >.<

[Deleted]

Damn work!!! I'm off for two weeks. But on my first day off, I get bronchitis. My headddd. I wanna diiiiieeee.

What does he/she do??

[Meredith]

Honestly? He is five hundred years old and is bitter that he is a pizza delivery 'expert'. I am one third his age, and was promoted within two weeks of work and is being trained to run my own store *oh god , please don't let me still be managing a dominoes in a year!* .

His name is James, he is old, rude, and hates women. He tells me outright 'no' when I ask him to do things and ignores me when I tell him to do them. The other day, he came right out and told me he doesn't respect me and refused to do dishes- when I had told the three employees I had that day to please do one of three tasks and to divide them amongst themselves. The other two did their work with no complaints and were happy I let them choose, he refused. Blew up at me two hours later when I asked him to do it a fifth time.

Oh, and my boss defended him.

*takes on what always sounds like a stoner's or hungover man's voice * "In Jim's defense, he is in pain because he can't go to his doctor right now and so he is a bit crazy." ....

And nothing else?!?

No, "Yeah Mere, that was insubordinate, you should have written him up." nothing even close to that.

And then my boss explains how Jim hates women... and yet STILL we keep him?

Its hard enough I am one of two girls in this place. Harder that I am a manager. I don't need this headache. And this guy does NOTHING. I have caught him sitting in a chair often. Most of the time he simply empties and fills the sinks in the back to make the appearance he is washing dishes... which he isn't... because the drying racks stay empty and the piles of dirty dishes grow.

I am only doing this so I can learn to manage my own cake shop one day, but honestly I am having to remind myself each day 'I need this experience... I need this knowledge... I need this... just... don't...murder... the 500 year old stoner'

[Deleted]

Man, I would totally write that dude up if he is refusing to do his shit. He can get some damn Aleve, or he needs to get his ass to the doctor. There are doctors everywhere, clinics inside of CVS/Walgreens/Walmart/ect. There is ample opportunity. And there are plenty of cheap general family medicine doctors, or he could set something up with his doctor. I mean I feel for him bein' in pain. I'm in pain 24/7, so I'm loaded up on Aleve or BC powder or Ibuprofen 24/7. And off brand meds are cheap. I get bottles of like 100 pills for $7, or 50 BC powders for $4.50. And if he can't handle that, he needs to find a job where he can sit and answer phones. I'm just sayin. But I probably also dislike him even more since he is sexist and I'm a blossoming feminist(until I drink tequila...then I want to sleep with everything with breasts and a clit...it's my downfall!).

[Meredith]

Lmfao. Honestly I am tempted to call up my sister's friend and get the job she keeps offering me, I think its 10-15 dollars an hour, telemarketing though, which kind of sucks...

I really want this management experience on my resume though :/

[Deleted]

Push through it and get your experience booboo. And just ignore his ass and make someone else handle him. Or find a way to fire him or write him up. Like go higher up on the chain. That's how I got the Petco general store manager fired after continued harassment of lesbian employees.

[Meredith]

I will hang in there, I just am a little tired. I am so grateful for this day off XD

[Deleted]

Being sleepy makes everyone hate everyone else just a little more than usual. Trust me, I know. I've been rather hostile towards certain people the past two days.

[Meredith]

I know it makes me irritable. I closed four days in a row and then did a double...sleep deprived much?

[Deleted]

Totes understand, haha. I'm exhausted man. I think it's prob the antibiotics and just being sick in general. D: Like on the fo real. I was barely home for 2 weeks, then finally I know I'm home...and I get sick. Good chance to stay in bed. But I'm a political junkie so for 9 hours yesterday I instead live tweeted the Texas House doing testimony on a bill I'm against. I might be working for my mom's boss next week at the office doing filing and stuff. But that;s if they decide to hire a temp worker for a week. If not, I really want to go to Austin on Monday to testify before the senate. But I dunno. #politicaljunkieproblems Gonna start looking at more jobs though. Might look at pizza delivery since I no longer have any offensive looking vehicles...since my last Jeep was almost ripped in half. And now I have a Patriot that only has the equality stick on the back.

[Deleted]

DUDE. I just got a call back from my local Dominos. I put in my application like, less than an hour ago. I feel pretty good about that. Apparently they have to have 3 drivers hired by the end of the month according to the driver I spoke to yesterday. Only thing is that I don't think Dominos is that popular here...that place never looks like it's open. But who knows! I need the money.

[Meredith]

Hahahahahahahahaha

[Meredith]

Omg hHahahahahaja

[Meredith]

God we need drivers, I wish you were close by, I could get you hired in a heartbeat.

[Meredith]

But still.... BwHahahahaha

[Deleted]

Does it suck to work there or something???
I figure it can't be any worse than squeezing dog asses.
And I get to be in my car frequently.
And I get to wear a hat.
Omfg, a HAT.
Life=made.

[Meredith]

Aw, you are adorable. It doesn't suck as long as your manager is nice. I am friends with my gm, and I am aanager, so I like it. A monkey could do this job, easiest job ever

[Deleted]

Manager seemed nice enough on the phone, even told me about how they get paid, because I keep hearing it's minimum wage, then I hear it's waiter's wage. It actually sounded like a pretty sweet gig. And perfect for my schedule. I already have two jobs, but I'm barely making enough to pay my bills, let alone food and gas. So I needed an actually stable job, because my two current ones aren't really stable, especially this summer, they've been shiiiiit. Work for myself, work for a family friend(who has fucked me over all fucking summer), and now I'm looking for a 3rd job.
