looky what I got...............

 

So Friday night I was a lil bored and was waiting for my family to be ready to have dinner in down town Atlanta so I got brave and drove myself to my favorite tattoo studio.  I have had in mind what kind of tattoo I wanted since earlier this summer. A celtic trinity knot on the inside of my right wrist. And thats just what I got. I met a guy inside the shop named Mike who looked at the trinity around my neck and a picture of one I had on my jump drive and created just what I wanted.... So a hour later I walked out of Magik Dragon Tattoo with a celtic trinity tattooed on the inside of my right wrist. It really didn't hurt at all till last night when it started feeling like a really bad burn. Its lovely though Mike did a really really good job. I am SOO very ready for my next tatt.... the search is on lol

the strangest dream....

Its been a pretty rare thing this year for me to remember any of my nightly dreams... but I have had the same dream for the past two nights. And since I remember it with such clairity I think I'll "write" it down....

I'm in a hospital bed giving birth with  my mother by my side. The room is a very bright shade of blue theres a nurse to my left and the doctor is in posistion to catch the coming newborn. The next thing I know labor is over and I see someone take my child into the next room. I ask my mother for my baby. She tells me its a little boy and I start talking about what to name him. Suddenly mom tells me to stop thinking of names because she is not going to allow me to keep him. She's decided to give him to a better family a family from First Church *our old church back in IN*. I beg her plead with her to allow me just to see him but she refuses.  I am so sad by this so lonely that I jump off a dock *have no idea when or how we got to a lake cottage* and into the freezing cold water. Everyone is freaking out except my mother who calmly says "Oh she's just fine she's used to being cold and damp."  Next thing I know I'm awake back in reality feeling sad hollow lonely.... not things I enjoy feeling. 

Strangness... indeed. ~elphie~

Passion




Passion, it lies in all of us. Sleeping...waiting...and though unwanted, unbidden, it will stir...open its jaws, and howl.

It speaks to us....guides us....Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have?

Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love...the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief.

It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow, empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead.

All dogs go to heaven

Our sweet  gentle never ever grumpy silly stinky little friend who wondered into our lives only a short time ago... has gone to be with the angels tonight. He went in peace with his Daddy by his side.... He was the nicest little scotty I'v ever known and this house will be hollow with out him. ~elphie~

I think its time you.....

ate my shorts? Yeah I'm feeling silly this morning. I suppose its the total lack of sleep last night. I had to study for 2 tests and then I had trouble actually falling asleep. Which is odd cause I was yawning soo much on the way home from tailsawaggin I couldn't even sing along to my selection of show tunes! sheeeeeeeeeeesh oh pete!

*bigassisighofrelief*

Sooo wow I may  not only pass my Math final but I think I might have done so well I'll get higher then a C! All that studing paid off I guess.... thank you sweet tiny lil baby jesus :)~

This just in.........

I am not nearly as dumb as I thought I was.... :) more to come

Sep. 22nd, 2006

finally finals

I don't think I could possibly study more this evening...... I'v gone over and over and over my English and Math books preparing for tomorrow. I'm not real worried about English but Math.... yeah I'm terrified. To be real REAL honest I'm like a retared sea monkey in Math. I'll be lucky to pull a C on this test even with all the studying I'v done. But I guess its "ok" cause I have done well on the last few chapter tests and what not. I dont think I'm in any danger of failing but I know I'm not going to get the grade I wanted.  No matter what happens I'll just have to learn from the mistakes and try to do better next quarter. :/

yahhhrahhh

So on a total fluke this morning I applied to a job listing for a doggy day care in Atlanta. I was just sitting in computer lab being bored and decided to check out craigslist.  I came across an ad for people exsperienced with handling dogs.... It was calling MY name. So I sent my resume and they called me less then 40mins later. I went in the an interview this afternoon spent a few hours with the owner and a butt load of dogs and was offered the job just before I left. I start SATURDAY!!! WoooHooo  Its a bit of a drive from my current living space but that might just be taken care of in the coming weeks. The pay is good and I'll actually be getting HOURS unlike New Army who over the past few weeks had given me about 7 hours a week! INSANITY I say!  So Happy Joy I have a job doing something I LOVE doing... taking care of dogs!!!!! Its hard work but if you know what your doing *which hello I totally do* it can be  fun rewarding and very fulfilling.  THANK YOU god or godess or who ever sent this my way.

I could live my entire life through song lyrics

Drops Me Down

Lisa Loeb


I walked away to get wisdom
But in the end I just walked home
And it drops me, drops me down
And I'm not feeling so good again

It was the same song and it's making me sad
Cause I think that it's happened
And it hasn't been had
And it drops me, drops me down
And I'm not feeling so good again

And I'm injured again
Yeah it's sick and I'm sucked in
Yeah I'm at it again
It's sick and I'm sucked in
It's sick and I'm sucked in

Cause I had some things so dear
Slip away and leave me here
And it drops me, drops me down
And I'm not feeling so good again
Yeah, it drops me, drops me down
And I'm not feeling so good again

Icicle - Tori Amos

Icicle Icicle where are you going
I have a hiding place when spring marches in
will you keep watch for me
I hear them calling
gonna lay down
gonna lay down


greeting the monster in our Easter dresses
Father says bow your head like the Good Book says
well I think the Good Book is missing some pages
gonna lay down
gonna lay down


and when my hand touches myself
I can finally rest my head
and when they say take from his body
I think I'll take from mine instead


Getting Off Getting Off while they're all downstairs
singing prayers sing away he's in my pumpkin p.j's
lay your book on my chest
feel the word
feel the word
feel the word
feel it


I could have
I should have
I could have flown
you know I could have
I should have
I didn't so

I must have an angel watching over me......

So today I woke up late which ment I didn't get to leave my house until about 7:15 to head too school... The last time I left that late it took me almost an hour and a half to get through traffic on 29. I decided to take 85S thinking traffic wouldn't be nearly as bad and I go move a little faster on the high way. Yeah NOOOOOooooo I was wrong.
Shortly after I got on the high way things started to pile up. At one point I was in the far left lane and all the cars ahead of me were at a complete stop. So I ofcourse stopped. It seems the wacko man 1 car behind me didn't notice that pretty much every car on our side of the high way had stopped so he slammed into the lady behind me, she hit me and I hit the guy in front of me.  My car sustained minor damage; I lost the turn signal on my right side and have a bit of a hole in my bumper and my back end is all scratched up. My body is ok.. I went to the hospital and got checked out. I'm sore as I'll get out but nothing serious they sent me home with some pain killers and told me to take it easy for the night. But the guy who hit us totaled his car and the car that hit me.  He was going pretty darn fast... I am soo thankful I wasn't the lady behind me.  This is my second "fender bender" this summer *the first time I was a passenger* and both times I was in a car that was just in the middle and didn't get hurt at all or have any damage to the car I was riding in.  Is this the luck of the Irish? Or perhaps my father watching over me? Tonight sore back and all I feel truely truely blessed.... to be alive and safe. Thank you my angel who or what ever you are.

Mannnnnnnnn...........

I think its time I pay for this LJ thing cause I hate those pesky ads... 
I love how I can post to my lil LJ while in my PC class. Poor mista KneeHi gets sooo frazzeled by the shocking number of people who lack computer skills that he completely forgets those of us who know what the crap we are doing. :) happy joy. I'm just here waiting for him to notice me so he can grade my project and wonder in awe at my talents.... riiiiiight ~elphie~

*coughhacksneeze*

Well finally my greenish skin color is a fairly accurate representation of how I feel. BLAHHHHHHhhhhhh My sinus infection is now a chest cold. I feel like the Mista Yuck sticker looks.

On a much much happier note I got my mid term test grades today... English A Intro to PC A- Math B- Medical Terminology A+ *yeah baby yeah!* To date I have an A in English an A in PC a B in math and an A in MTerms. 
Not bad for a girl who's been out of school for a very long time.

Sooo the lil sis is having a boy. Everyone is all upset because the poor little thing is probably going to be blind due to a gentic disorder in her dads side of the family called RP. There is something like a 95% chance that the baby will have some kind of visual impairment. I hate to say this but the LAST person on the planet who needs  a special needs baby is ChellyBelly. On top of that she's gonna name the poor thing Ethan Pollux McFalls..... Pollux?? huh? she says its some greek something er rather... guess what kido we are soo not greek it isn't funny. Pollux sounds like a polutry STD or something.

I'm sure I have more I could ramble on about but well I feel like crap. I'm going to bed. I'll post more when I don't feel like yuck... ~elphie~

who wants to do my home work??

Not meeeeeee... Ahh business math. I love my B-math teacher she's such a sweet lady and she has the thickest jamican accent I have ever heard. Its almost hard to understand her some of the time. But she is a nice lady.

Our scrubs have yet to come in those slow bastards! lol It will be so nice to not have to worry about what to wear to school every day. Marroon scrubs 4 days a week. It is sad though that they will not let us wear the scrubs that are printed. I was totally eyeing a few wicked hello kitty tops that were just perfact. But nooooooooooooooo we must wear the tops that say our schools name on them. DORKS! These people are really trying to take away my girlie style, this is not gonna end well.

I suppose I'll go do my home work now... SHEESH who do these people think they are giving ME home work?? come on... lmao

Oh yeah I tottally aced my English test i'm talking 100% people. Yipee for me.

65,563?

Thats how many emails it says are in my bulk mail box on yahoo... and yet when I click on it theres nothing there, and when I try to empty the folder nothing happens. A bit odd huh?

In a few short hours I'll be back in the Mall folding t-shirts and watching small children destroy all of last nights hard work. Truely hope we get out tonight before 1230 as I have to be right back there at 10am Saturday.

But I do have something fun to look forward to. My dear dear friend KJ and I are going to a potluck brain storming session at the Push Push theater in Decatur tomorrow afternoon for the Savage Tree Arts project. They are having a Christmas Art show in Dec and I have been asked to make some wearable art for the show. Ms. KJ is going to help me make things and come up with ideas.

Well its time to hit the showers and all that jazz. Lets all pray the store doesn't already look like a war zone! ~elphie~
