Let Me Entertain You, Let Me Make You Smile. . .*
My days never cease to be interesting.
First off, remember the stripper my Dad introduced me to last summer who was going to let me exercise her pony? And how I actually did one time before managing to lose touch with her? Apparently he heard from her today and she's throwing a BBQ at her new house next Saturday. Plus, the horses are at this new place (I guess she bought a Thoroughbred afterall) so she actually invited me and said maybe we could work something out pony-wise again.
I'll probably go, even if my Mom's not going to be there so it'll just be me and my Dad with this stripper and all her friends. Eek, haha. O_o;;; I can't fault this girl though because she's actually very nice. Before I met her, all I knew about her was her "profession" and I had no idea what she'd be like. I remember posting about this in my online diary on LB, and one of the girls was like "wow, I'd probably be intimidated" cuz she thought that if this girl was a stripper, she was bound to be gorgeous or something.
Well.
Like I said, she was nice. She has that much going for her. And I learned some things about her past that made it easier to understand how she may have gotten started on that path, etc. But physically. . .everything about her was fake. Her hair was obviously dyed and had extensions, she wore tons and tons of makeup and I never saw her in anything that wasn't completely form fitting-- and she was about my height but considerably chunkier, so it wasn't that pleasant. :\ And she probably had had some "work" done, but I don't need to go into any detail, heh. As a woman, I was in no way "intimidated" by her, in fact I found it very offputting. I know guys are visual creatures or whatnot, but I don't know how such obvious fakeness could be attractive. ;p
Again, I am NOT slagging her as a person or even the fact that she strips for a living. *I* am personally against it and I'd rather starve than degrade myself that way (hell, just having guys catcall when I'm out running makes me want to throw rocks through their windshield, hehe), but to each her own. She makes a ton more money doing that than I do at Brooks, haha.
Speaking of work, I thought today was going to completely suck but it was surprisingly good. Chris wasn't in a good mood when I got there because it had been a stupidly hectic morning and he hadn't gotten anything important done. Plus he was mildly hungover, hehe. Then one of the other afternoon workers called out, so it was just going to be me, Emily (the new girl I trained) and He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named (ie. the kid I'm not fond of, not Voldemort). Although we were incredibly busy all afternoon and night long, it went by fast and wasn't too bad. I was in a surprisingly good mood with my customers too, at least during the 2nd half of the day. During the first half, oh my god, EVERYONE was SO RUDE. I don't understand why people that are heading off to the beach or some other fun-type place are always so bitchy, impatient, and downright stupid. GAH.
And I also love how some customers treat us as lesser people because we work in a fricken drug store. As if we have no other abilities or talents or what-have-you. I don't feel like detailing any good examples, but every single person that works there has their own stories. IMO, everyone should have to work in retail for at least a year. I think it would *really* open some people's eyes.
I developed the pictures today too and Rich, the picture of me half-asleep is SO BAD!!!!!! hahaha I look hungover, and I'm talking in a "I was near alcohol poisoning the night before" kind of way. It is AWFUL. ;D
However I also have some new, interesting pictures of you now. >: ) The ones with the cowboy hat are classic, hehe.
I am continuing to kick ED ass, though the up-coming possibly stressful week might be difficult. Maybe not though, cuz I've had plenty of opportunities and I haven't even gotten the slightest urge. Not to mention, I'd like to keep my weight right around where it is. It was a little too high a few weeks ago, but I shed 11 lbs just from not b/ping and I can live with this weight.
That's all for today. Talk to y'all later!
*If you know what these lyrics are from, you win! Either that or you spend too much time riding in the car with me, haha.
