sew smoothe.

[new] sewing machine...i freakin' loooove you.

since the old machine was out of order,  i brought it in to get looked at (potentially fixed), but it totally wasn't worth it.

so i bought a new one. 
:)

been there.

...done that.

it was real.  it was fun.  it was real fun.  (being a d.j. at ktuh)

but now it's become more of a responsibility (espeecially a responsibility i don't need) and i never even feel like talking on the air anymore...so i put in my two weeks.




yeah, it was good while it lasted, but i'm over it.

it's been a while.

...since i've had to deal with a stupid-fat-ugly-bitch customer, but today was the day and it's still bothering me, but i supposed it will pass.
bottom line though: i'm pretty sure she's just bitter at the world because she's a stupid, fat, ugly, bitch.
ohhhh so many things i would like to say to that douche bag, but cannot, especially because she's supposedly already going to talk to her "good friend", the g.m. 


now that i've vented, i hope that's the last of this matter.

beach and bitches.

...we not really bitches, duh. 

but ahhh, it feel so good to hang with the girls again and lay in the sun.   brought some beers, too, but never really felt like drinking.


gonna check out art & flea tonight.  go peep my future fellow sellers-as it is my goal to eventually get a table there and sell some things: baby blankets and whatever else rambles off these hands.

and then the radio show feat. c.spain, hopefully.

g.sales.

....i love 'em.

...so what if we filled the trunk after only the third stop.  ;)  couirt we're only allowed to go once a month (with my hoarding problem and all, haha  jk)...we doesn't mean i, by myself.  so i went the next week, too.  but didn't really score anything great the second time.

here comes the sun.

...have the beatles stuck in my head from earlier today. j.rak and i layin on the nose of the boat, enjoying the loveley day.


i later picked up c.spain out west and headed up north for the evening. went to ka ena point on the north side for the first time. marley's first time, too:

we crazy:

summer solstice.

finally had a breakfast and beach day with my girl j-rack [before work].

just like the old days...good times.


and



it's that time of year again: white girl hang out. (which means my girl, c.spain, whom i know from okinawa, comes here with her family and we cruise and it's fun.)
no particular reason, but i don't really hang out with many white girls regularly. none that i can think of anyway.



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


the evening at work:

ureshii.

there's a new boy at work. he says i'm the happiest person he's ever met. crazy, right?!
i told him you should have seen me a couple months ago, especially when i was serving...ahaha.

my boss asked me how it's going. i told him good. and i guess i was pretty enthusiastic because he replied with, "do you have a man in your life or something?" nope. hahaha. things are just good.

saw j. he said i was like radiant...

and tone, he said i'm "back to the old d again."

yay. :)

sewing machine:

i hate you so much right now.


i thread and re-thread. i changed the bobbin. i wd-40'd the mofo. i bought two different kinds of needles.

i did everything i can think of to get my sewing machine working, but it just keeps f'ing up and therefore i cannot finish like five blankets. :\

soooo close,yet, so far.


my favorite part of making a blanket is turning it right-side out. it's when you get the first real glimpse of what these different pieces of fabric look like together. it's even more exhilerating when i used recycled fabrics from different time, different places, especially like garage sales and thirft stores and such. definitely one of a kind.


i really just want to buy a new sewing machine. a nice expensive one that can embroided. could you imagine the possibilities?!?
someday...

i need to look into sewing machine repair shops or some shit. boo.

tuuuursday.

...i can see this happening. i'm supposed to hang with kam [hope neither of us flake] and we always get nuts with crafting ideas.


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


just as i thought. brainstorming/dreaming about crafts and businesses and shops.

we went stand-up paddle. i l-l-l-loooove it! besides being super windy and fighting the current half of the time, being out on the water is so nice!!

we gonna try go like once a week or so. espeically since i'm not really serving anymore, i need to do something to keep up the guns!

speaking of guns, for some reason like three people said something to me about looking super rip. meeean.

also at work, i have a new piece to my uniform: a bracelet.
our bar regular, alan, is an old guy with loads of money. ironically enough, he's pretty lonely and miserable and comes in just about daily.

during down time at work, me and my hachi-roku pal would made loads of paper cranes. [she can even make ones smaller than a dime!]
anyway, we would give alan origami whenever he came. *86-pal transferred to another dept. in the hotel, but i continue to crane make for alan.

a couple weeks ago he started telling me he got me somethig (no, not in a hitting-on-me kind of way; he's gay i think).

one day he brought me a box with a crystal bracelet. like, the kind that protects you or whatever. it's actually really nice, and brown! and has a shell on it. :) so unoffically, this is now a new piece of my uniform.

*86-pal is from work. we bonded on the fact that she and i both used to drive ae86. i always wanted a peptol bismol-pink colored one; she had a peptol pismol-pink colored one. she coooooo.

one foot in and one foot back.

...it don't pay to live like that.
so i cut the ties and jump the track, never to return.


(avett's: i and love and you)

busted for being ferdinand.

...it was a few weeks back and two of my "big" bosses both busted me at the same time for wearing the ferdinand nametag since i lost mine.  they said ferdinand is a boy's name.  i really thought it sounded unisex; they disagreed.  first time anyone said anything to me in the week or so i was wearing it, but i did get kind of weird looks sometimes.  one lady even called me "ferdi"-tiiiight. hahah.
i ended up being edlyn the rest of the day.
and it was back to diane the next.


i still like the name ferdinand (for a girl).

i should hit the sack.

...that's what he said?!


been up north a lot lately.  it's be real nice.
the neary full moon was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l in the dark sky. 
me, music and the windy road.
[i don't usually take the windy road home because i prefer to take the "long" way; scenic route.]
i'm always a little bummed when i started approaching home because i just like driving.



the other day after work i went to longs.  i was in my blue smurf/nanny from the brady bunch dress [a.k.a. work dress] with a swearter and panty hose and the whole sha-bang bang and some radom dude was like: "excuse me, i  think you're absolutely beautiful." 
i said thank you, kind of laughing (which that is one thing i've learned to do as i've gotten older- just take a f'in compliment.  you know, versus being like "omg, no i'm not, blah blah blah...").
so anyway, sure, it was flattering, makes you feel nice, ya know?
but at the same time, it's like, a complete stranger thinks i'm beautiful [on the outside]-whooptyfuckin'do. but then there's people i'm really close to, specifically one person i was really close to, a person who knows me on the inside me, and i feel like they don't see the inside part of me as beautiful. 
i feel like i've been pretty ugly to people who know me well, especially this past year-and that's not who i want to be.

of course, that's not who i have to be if that's not to who i want be, duuuuuh.

spreading happiness is much easier when you're happy yourself, so it's a good thing my happiness level has been risising.

but i havce to start work in t-minus 5.5 hours [which will be 6:30 a.m.] so i should probably call it a night.


tomorrow, tomorrow, i'll love ya, tomorow, you're only a day......no, you're already here. 
goodnight.


Wednesday, June 15, 2011 Sagittarius -

You should be in a good mood, Sagittarius, although you might have a hard time fully expressing yourself. Perhaps you feel like there is someone keeping an eye on your every move. You may feel like a kid in class being watched by the teacher. Don't be intimidated by those with a self-righteous air. You have just as much right to speak your mind as anyone else.

...allllllriiiiiiightytheeeeeeeeen.    

yo mama's so fat.

...look at you, bitch!


i'm pretty sure this is the best yo mama joke i ever heard.  when d.k. was in town, him and j.bell overhead some kids blasting yo mama jokes at the skatepark. and according to them, after this one, that was the end of that. 

baby [blanket] making binger.

...that's exactly what i've been on.  but when i've mentioned it a couple of times, i forgot to insert the very imortant word "baby," in turn, confusing many-a-people.

so yes, a baby blankey making binger.

i'm beginning to wonder why i went to college if i'm perfectly content standing at a host stand and making crafts. 
not that i want to be doing that forever; but i definitely do not want to be working in a newsroom.

but things are finally mellowing out and i like it.  i can honestly say "i'm happy". which if i told you that a few months prior, i would have been lying. so i'm kind of just enjoying it day by day, letting things fall into play.

and i'm going to freakin' california next month for a wedding...cheeeeeeeeeeee!!  :)

because we had to.

...because i loved you.becaused the daaaaamned alcohol.
because whatever at all.


[avett's..."talk of indolence"]

i'm a creep.

i'm a...

we are heading north.

...olive ave.

j.bell (the mama) calls me mom#2.

... :)

she also calls me a freak.
... :\


but i loooooove marley ann! [ i'm pretty sure everyone does. ]

hello kitty up the ying-yang.

...i NEVER liked hello kitty, ever!  and then it was the theme for marley's first birthday so i made a hello kitty blanket and hello kitty cookies and there was hello kitty everything and it was pretty kawaii. 

[sideways balloon boquet...  :\ ]

i never did snap a picture of the original hello kitty baby blanket, but i did make another (slightly different) with the leftover fabric i had.

so i kind of like hello kitty, but for now: hello[goodbye]kitty
