Life
So I am out of school for a week and a half. Then I have to go back to the grind. Yet for now I think I am going to get my hair done. It is getting all split endie and I need to remedy that.
However the most exciting thing happens tommorrow. My boy is out of school too. SO I get spend a week with him before I go back. I am hoping we will have so good adventures. We almost always have fun with our time off together. We probably go bowling and to the lake. Maybe we will even go to the "enchanted forest" together. After this week off then summer gets hella busy as something is happening almost every weekend. Which is awesome. Al though I can't wait till August becuase that is when summer classes get out. Then Kyle and I have month together until we return to school for my last quarter.

Oh the insomnia
Oh the insomina never ends. The mind run a mile min. and I have finals this week. Finals shouldn't be that bad and my Jeanne is visiting me soon! I can't wait! I don't know when I will be back to california but I miss all of you any how. I am horrible with communications (if you didn't already know) and sometimes I wish for the sake of being able to see you all I was there. However I wouldn't give up what I got here for the world. It is so beautiful here and my family is so happy here (as am I most of the time). Well ramble ramble ramble.
Smiles,
MJ

crap finals
AHHH! Crappy Finals only a week and half away!!!! Ahhhh!

(Comment on this)

day in the life of
It was threatening to down pour this morning but atlas the sun has decided to come out. Finals are tomorrow and my brain is being over exploded with pre calculus and Botany facts and formulas. I hate finals! They are supposed to test your knowledge on a subject from how many weeks ago. I am sorry folks but my long term memory doesn’t set in for that stuff for another 2 months; so can we reschedule?
I so want to pass my fucking Math class! First I should say that like most people math is my least favorite subject. Mostly because I am not seeing how it applies to the really world. They should definitely teach math with physics or social science, then I would be like “oh Yeah”! Who care about log functions, or the half life of carbon 14, or whether the function is odd or even?
The most I gotten excited in this class is when she was talking about finding the function of an equation by the pattern of its out come (statistics). That I get! Or hell ask me about how to find the right cable that won’t fry you vacuum tube (hint here, don’t use tin) or whether or not you really could put 40 GHz through a SMA connector and why you shouldn’t and how you figure that out! I am sorry that I don’t care about the distance between to points on a line!
To boot my son is grounded. It is mommy can I watch TV, can I play video games, can I go outside, can I, can I, Can I??? No you cannot. I really would like to say, sorry honey you were a dumb ass and broke the garage door while putting other kids lives in danger and being a general fuck up and what the fuck were you thinking?! Instead I stick to this is what you did wrong, this why it is wrong, this what of could happen and if you every do something like that again instead being ground for a week, you butt will hurt for that time instead. Questions? (Yes I believe in spanking when the circumstance warrants it (i.e. life threaten ordeals).
My brain is melting.
MJ
PS Sometime I hate my wireless it keeps on insisting upon repair when I am out side blah! Grrr!

Mike Creep, Jeanne, and Gary a dream for you
So Wednesday night I had the weirdest dream. Mike, Jeanne and Gary were all try to rob a bank (take note this is only a dream). Whence I find them in a Goth hair/nail/spa and have evidence of said crime to happen and want in on it. Which for whatever reason they let me. To accomplish this ever so cleverly plan robbery we must do it on Halloween night, in costume, by renting out a public pool that has a vent that goes to the sewers just below the vault. Then we must blow the floor of the vault out from the bottom and take the cash get onto our motorcycles, drive to the end of the sewers 3 miles a away, and take a dip in the bay were our boat is waiting or us (were I am sure we can sail to some far away land and drink mai tai’s). Yet first we must shop for our elborate costume of which Mike helps me pick out the most perfect pinstriped suit with flare and appropriate Goth/faire mask. When he asks me why I want to join, I just say because of Jeanne. (There comes that inherent nature of protecting your sister). So how would I classify the roles of this scheme...?
Gary-Master mind of the plans (and yes Gary will always be my icon and master of genius plans)
Mike-style, flare and fun
Jeanne- partners in crime until the end (after all she is my sister and best friends)

What a weird sense of detail I got from this dream, but hey that what I get for coming off pain killers (I will explain that later)

just me today
As I am sitting here at my computer desk, I am wondering just why people like the holidays? As kids I can understand, as for most it is about what gifts you get. Even my six-year-old Kyle, who has one of the biggest hearts I seen on a kid, is all about the presents. (Even though this year he was suck picking up dog poop to earn money to buy his own Christmas gifts for people) I mean, what does it for adults? Why can’t we spread the cheer and giving throughout the year? Why is it for just one day or even just one month? Why can’t I find any cheer? Why would I rather be in a soup kitchen all day then be with my family? (And alas I am not going to get to be in a soup kitchen all day just my own) Why is that I like to say fuck Christmas!? Well mostly I thought because at the ripe age of 9 my parents stop celebrating it, and then tried to phase it back when I was 18 going full blast after I had my son. I mean when I was kid I love it, why can’t I now. Micah literally had beat me in to allowing lights on the house (I would have drug them down at night had he not made me promise) Goddess forbid you have to many lights on your house and I pass by, you might just be the subject of my “you know how energy your wasting” speech. Why is this so hard? Why do I want to hide in my walk in closet?
O well fuck it and while you’re at it fuck Christmas!
So right now it is 30 degrees outside in Cottage Grove Oregon. It is about 58 in the house and sixty-one (thanks to my room heater) and rising in my room. Yet I still feel the need to drink my chilled tea and eat my frozen yogurt (it is better frozen). Am I cold? Well yes I am but I can always crawl under my down comforters and dechill there.
I am hoping to get some friends up here for or around the New Year. I miss you guys so much. It is funny to me that yes I miss my family and I like it when they visit but my friends I miss the most. It is like my heart aches with out them. I hate being a cancer. I much rather them visit me then my parents visit me. Maybe it is because with my close friends I have shared my soul with them or at least pieces but with my parents never.
Well back to the grind of another day. Or rather back to waiting for unemployment to call so I can get approved for training benefits and for a six-month extension.

So I applied to a job randomly, just becuase it said purchasing manger. I loved that part of my old job and now i have an interview on tuesday. with a half crapped portfolio and well i haven't been interviewed in 5 years or so. I sm nervous and shocked that got back to me the same day i applied. I don't what to say and in a partice interview with Micah i couldn't stop saying um.. , you know.. or, like.. the worst part is when i relized this i start to laugh. nothing like laughing tthrough a interview! It like dating, a game, you mostly lose and sometimes you get lucky.
I so don't know what i am going to do or say!

so sad so glad
Today is Kyle's first day of real school. I loved to see the excited look on his face and hold his hand as we walk there together but I miss him, I have had him with me everyday this summer and now he off being grown up. Ah parenthood.

This fits perfect for me...

You are the Moon card. Entering the Moon we enter
the intuitive and psychic realms. This is the
stuff dreams are made on. And like dreams the
imagery we find here may inspire us or torment
us. Understanding the moon requires looking
within. Our own bodily rhythms are echoed in
this luminary that circles the earth every
month and reflects the sun in its progress.
Listening to those rhythms may produce visions
and lead you towards insight. The Moon is a
force that has legends attached to it. It
carries with it both romance and insanity.
Moonlight reveals itself as an illusion and it
is only those willing to work with the force of
dreams that are able to withstand this
reflective light. Image from: Stevee Postman.

Hello all from oregon
Okay so it has been awhile but i thought i give you all an update from Oregon.
I am 20 mins form a major city, 10 mins from the lake, 45 mins from the ocean, 30 mins from the wine country, and i can afford to live here and own a home! I have 2 kittens, a puppy, her mom on the 3rd and five year old. They all drive me nuts but it is a good thing i suppose?! I also get to spend the rest of my life with my love and if piss me off then i can knock him off and i get the house!:)

The down part is that i away from my friends, but Musae is supposed to be coming the last week in august and i couldn't be more stoked! I wish i could get her to move out here, but atlas it will be probably for not. but she is coming to visit me! and that makes me happy!
So if any of you are up this way give me a jingle or some thing.

I will be starting school in the fall (yeah for online courses!) and so will Kyle but out side that i have allot of time.
Hugs all,
MJ

I am Moving!! Far away:(
So I am offically telling you all that I moving to Eugene, OR. July 1st! Some of you are like why what the Hell is in Eugene??!! Well First off I moving with S.O. and before you go "figures", let me just say besides my friends and few nice people i had the fortune of meeting here in the Bay Area, I hate it. I hate people's busy attitude, rudeness, fast paceness, over crowded, under paid, couldn't afford a house unless I hit the lottery bay area crap! So I am changing it. My S.O. and I are buying a house and i am getting to go to school full time and not work. Granted once my unemployment runs out I might pick up a part time job depending on how strapped we become but non the less I still will be a full time doing what i want to do and getting my education and not being totally stressed out becuase I must go to the life sucking job thing and school.
So be excited for me! The cool thing is once I graduate Micah gets to stay home and write his books. I call it the supporting dream method. (yep I get to bring home the bacon and he gets to be bare foot and pregnant in the...Love you babe:)
Well back to work!
Hugs all,
MJ
