Back online, but not in LA. :'(
I miss it.
Well, I miss Myranda.
Hopefully I'll be moving back soon. If not in LA, then closer to it than I am now.

Here's hoping.

EXCERPTS FROM A DOG'S DAILY DIARY:

8:00 a.m. Oh, boy! Dog food! My favorite!
9:30 a.m. Wow! A car ride! This is a blast!
9:40 a.m. A walk in the park! Ate some cr*p... Delicious!
10:30 a.m. Getting rubbed and petted! I'm in love!
12:00 p.m. Lunch! Yummy!
1:00 p.m. Playing in the yard! I just love it!
3:00 p.m. Staring adoringly at my masters...they're the best! I'll wag my
tail in joy!!
4:00 p.m. Hooray! The kids are home! I'm bouncing off the walls!
5:00 p.m. Milkbones! Great!
7:00 p.m. Get to play ball! This is too good to be true!
8:00 p.m. Wow! Watching TV with my master! Heavenly!
11:00 p.m. Sleeping at the bottom of my master's bed!
Life is soooooooo great!

EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DAILY DIARY:

Day 683 of My Captivity:
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They
dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or
some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations
perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my
strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape.

In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomited on the floor. Today I
decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had
hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly
demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending
comments about what a ''good little hunter'' I am. The audacity!!

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed
in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could
hear the noise and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due
to my power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use
it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my
tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this
again tomorrow-- but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches.
The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released--and he
seems more than willing to return! He is obviously retarded.

The bird has got to be an informant-- I observe him communicating with the
guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. The captors
have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is
safe-- for now. But! I can wait.

It is only a matter of time.

*^*^*^*^*^*

weeeeeeeeeeeeell, upon inspection of my last post i realize that either:
a) i did it wrong
or
b) the link is broken/not valid anymore

SO. on that note, i feel like a jackass, because:
a) i know i did it right
and
b) i should've thought about that possibility & found a concrete way to link it

*^*^*^*^*^*

it was a really cute flash, though.

seeing as how this would be easiest, here's the basic of what i want. grant it, i don't want the reds, i want blues & purples, this'll give you all a general idea of what i'm going to pay someone to stab into me. =) on the side of my left leg, so hopefully it won't hurt too badly! =)

whaddya think?

I really hope that the next time someone feels the need to take something from me, they at least have the balls to either a) be a man about it and just ask for it or b) tell me that they took it.

*^*^*^*^*^*

Shit like this really pisses me off!

*^*^*^*^*^*

I'll be with my punkin' for a week, though, so hopefully I'll forget all about this over a bottle of vodka & some tattooing! =)

Well, kids, I got the internet here at the house. At the moment things are a little shoddy with the setup, seeing as how a "tech can't be out here until Tuesday".....but it'll work for now.

*^*^*^*^*^*

Alyce is sleeping in my still-packed suitcase! Well, the still-packed suitcase that's in the bedroom...there's still one in the living room I need to tend to. I'd wake her 10lb fuzzy ass up and make her move off of my clothes if I didn't feel so bad about having taken her to the vet & making her get shots the other day. Everything was all right, just wanted to get her checked up.

*^*^*^*^*^*

I guess I'm off to Texas; sitting here and seeing that white cord out of the corner of my eye is irritating me!

Happy Weekend!

I had had this big, long sob-story post all ready to go about half an hour ago. managed to get side tracked with something on the history channel and ended up forgetting what i was going to whine about. guess some things really aren't that necessary & important to complain about.

*^*^*^*^*^*

probably going to head up to Springfield tomorrow and find something to do for the day. until then, however, i have some unfinished business with the box of Barnum's Animal Crackers on the nightstand.

ZaD, here's the rest of your late birthday present*:

it's wrong to just want this year over, isn't it?

*^*^*^*^*^*

i should be doing work right now, and i will...but when i'm damned good and ready! boss isn't here today, so it shouldn't be so bad.

*^*^*^*^*^*

my glasses broke this morning before i left for work, so i'm stuck wearing the only other pair that i have (the ones that make everything really clear, but the frames i just had to have are a tad too small, so when i shift my eyes in any direction other than straight ahead, everything becomes out of focus again.

the only good point of today: it's raining.

stolen from tzemesce's journal

Go to your calendar and find the first entry for each month of 2005.
Post the first line of it in your journal, and that's your year in review.

January: "Scattered fucking showers, my ass." -- Noah
February: Looking back at me I see that I never really got it right.
March: of the $739.00 i got back from W, i'm getting to keep roughly $187.00 of that. the rest has to go to bills to get caught up to move in a few weeks.
April: how r'tarded am i?
May: Don't worry, I'm just as confused as the rest of you.
June: christ. responsibility sucks ass.
July: i mean, it's not all that bad; like, i worked (am working) with myranda today, so at least i didn't have to worry about working with someone i didn't like.
August: Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out.
September: if anyone has any leads as to any places that are hiring, and you'd like to receive a Christmas gift this year from me, i NEED this information.
October: Well, wish me luck.
November: i'm employed!
December: it's wrong to just want this year over, isn't it?

so the summation is that i whine far too much...but i'm employed...??
uh-huh....

oh wait! i also lack the originality to post my own thoughts rather than song lyrics!! boy, do i rock.

slams head against desk.

syrienna @ 2005-11-29T11:06:00

2005-11-29T17:10:56Z

long time no post.

i'm employed! woo! that means that the people who actually give a fuck about how i'm doing (i.e, still manage to call me/write me/post on my pathetic LJ)will be getting Christmas stuffs. [insert happy dance]

seeing as how i'm only about 4 hours in to the work day and i have a mountain of repetative paperwork to sort through, i'll close this.

i guess the only point to this post was to say that i'm still alive.

bitches. =)

syrienna @ 2005-10-24T15:59:00

2005-10-24T23:04:36Z

Well, wish me luck.

I applied back to US Support Co. Needs teh monies bad. Want to move the HELL out of S'port!!!!!! =)

However, IF you want to receive BETTER Christmas gifts & know of a BETTER job I'm qualified for, do let me know. =) Oh, and submit your WishLists here:

*^*^*^*^*^*

oh, and about the Hotel situation w/the unemployement:

I didn't get it. Big shocker there. Oh well. I'll just NEVER fucking work for another Dimension owned property EVER again!

2005-09-22T21:37:37Z

if anyone has any leads as to any places that are hiring, and you'd like to receive a Christmas gift this year from me, i NEED this information.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

::WARNING:: The following statement may seem offensive & racial. Good.

it seems that working for holiday inn in bossier, the only way to feel like you have any sense of job security is if you're fucking a manager or you're black.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

i had a long nice entry typed out but livejournal ate it. so in short:

i "wasn't happy with my job & made that apparant to other co-workers; got too many guest complaints; and the computer system kept getting fucked up."

Denise,
No, I wasn't happy with my job, but not because of the work but because of the people I worked FOR. If you don't pay someone to do the job that they're doing, then no, they begin to feel like since they're efforts are going unappreciated then why the hell keep busting their ass to do the job? And, despite popular belief, I do have friends. And I have friends in the workplace whom I talk to about problems that I think are going on, seeing as how when said problems are brought to management's attention they go unheeded. And if by "complaints" you mean people coming up to you PERSONALLY and telling you how satisfied they are with the level of service they received from me, or the numerous compliment cards I received since being there, then yes, I got "complaints". But, I think you may need to re-read Webster's definition before making that assessment. And as for the computer problems, firing me won't solve that. Restaffing will. The problems lie in this tier of screwups:
Margarita
Nicole
Henrietta
Wes
I don't include Myranda in that because unlike the others, she will ASK QUESTIONS before going ahead with something she's unsure of. Good luck with the new system in October with your current lineup. And if by some miracle you decide to hire some more people, just remember to make sure that they're black or incompetent; or a nice mixture of both. That's sure to boost sales through the roof, much like they are now.

"Good luck" my ass,
--Amy

Mr. Ferland,
Your letter is significantly shorter than Denise's simply because I didn't deal with you on a daily basis like I did her. Your fuckups slid down the shithill much more slowly than hers. I hope you one day decide to stop running a second rate hotel & restaff. The "sales team" you have now is about as useful as a condom machine in a restroom at the Vatican. Much like them are the "management teams" you've got set up for the front desk and restaurant/lounge. Again, make sure that when the time comes for you TO restaff, you allow Densie to hire front desk employees who are black and incompetent, but who are bisexual and about 30 years your junior, that way it can keep up employee morale while they vie for your attention and most days set aside on your calendar.
The way your establishment's allowed to operate disgusts me, and I truly regret investing time and effort into trying to succeed in the hospitality industry via your property.

--Amy

*^*^*^*^*^*^

the prior entry was much more witty, but like i said, livejournal ate it.

the funny part: i'm not mad that i lost my job, i'm just more irritated at the way it happened. however, after posting this, i feel much more relieved.

i could be all mushy and post the lyrics to Semisonic's "Closing Time" but it's not as catchy as Fallout Boy. heh

*^*^*^*^*^*^

Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out. Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out of here. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. And every time I think I've finally made it, I learn I'm farther away than I have ever been before. I see the clock and it's ticking away, and the hourglass empty, what the fuck do I have to say? Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out. Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out of here. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. Keep it inside, the image portrayed, as if I couldn't stand losing, as if I couldn't be saved, no way. A small confession I think I'm starting to lose it. I think I'm drifting away from the people I really need. A small reflection on when we were younger: we had it all figured out 'cause we had everything covered, now were older it's getting harder to see what this future will hold for us, what the fuck are we going to be? Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out. Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out of here. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. So lost, I'm just as lost as you. Oh well, what am I going to do? I'm afraid I'm falling farther away from where I want to be. Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out. Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out of here. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you. Believe me, I'm just as lost as you.

*^*^*^*^*^*

...so I close my eyes; let the whole thing pass me by; there is no time to waste asking "why?". I'll runa way with you by my side. I'll run away with you by my side! And I learn to let go, let go, let go, let go of this pride, until this echo, echo, echo, echo in my mind...until this echo, echo, echo, echo can subside.

*^*^*^*^*^*

Work's been really fucking crappy these past few days; I haven't been able to do anything that i've needed to get done. This also includes picking up Mike's kitten to watch her for a while as he gets things in order at the apartment he's at. So, Mike, if you're not too horribly pissed at me as of yet, I'd like to say I'm uber sorry for not having picked her up yet nor been able to call you. If you haven't taken her out to Haughton yet (which, I'm hoping you haven't, remembering you'd said something about Mark's dad's cat losing fur and whatnot), I can steal her away Friday night after work, as I'll actually be getting off at 11 or sooner, seeing as how I have to work at 7am on Saturday. Call me on my cellphone tomorrow (Thursday) or at work on Friday and let me know what's going on. Again, I'm really really REALLY sorry for the delay. =(

*^*^*^*^*^*

Kayla had fun in IL. I'm glad! =) Says she wants out of Louisiana...can't say I blame her one bit! ha! =) I know her kitten's glad she's back though.... Now the little hellion can stop sleeping in MY room with MY cat in a box that's got about 5 plastic bags in the bottom of it. You have no idea what it's like going to sleep with sounds not of gentle rain on the window or a subtle hum of a fan but of the CONSTANT rummaging of paws on plastic. For hours. On end. So, I'm down to only having to hear 4 feet on the bags rather than 8.

*^*^*^*^*^*

I think the only productive thing I've felt I've accomplished, aside from testing the limits of my patience with people at work, is finishing Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince. Yeah, I know, how fucking geeky, right? But I like it, dammit. It's going to be a hard wait for the last book to come out.

*^*^*^*^*^*

And, speaking of "fucking geeky, right?", Murphy Brown's on television...it's time to prioritize...Adult Swim. And then sleep. =)

Turn left when your right when you think that 'it's probably worth the fight.' They've invaded your password, your bathroom stalls, music, and computer files. So go and take one good last look at America; it might not be there for too long. So go and take one good last look at America. And the symptoms of the few effect the problems of the multitude. You know which way to look, you know you have the right to choose what is good and what is just from things that we've seen. The world is on fire and in to it just start throwing gasoline. So go and take one good one good last look at America; it might not be there for too long.

damn, adam dale is freaking awesome. and hott. yes, oh yes.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

fuck, i need to go get my eyes checked again & get another contact prescription. it's almost like looking through a veil sometimes. shitty.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

i think i'm going to colour my hair. i highly doubt that i have any pictures of myself with this blonde, so for those of you who have to deal with me on a daily basis, feel loved that you are a lucky few who got to see it. the rest of you, however, will get to see it bright ass red as soon as i a) dye it and b) figure out how to upload a picture on here from my computer. =)

ever get in those moods where you really just don't want to fall asleep? not because you're not tired, quite the contrary, but because you're almost afraid to fall asleep? and yes, trust me, i know how fucked up that sounds coming from someone who's over the age of 10. i don't know what my deal is tonite; just got home and haven't had the nerve to give in to sleep.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

goddammit, i hate dial up.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

but i fucking love the guitar bridge in this song.

just figured i'd post something to let you all know i'm still alive.

you know, because you care.

damn work! damn it all to hell!

i mean, it's not all that bad; like, i worked (am working) with myranda today, so at least i didn't have to worry about working with someone i didn't like. but it's the people that come in. they're really starting to get on my nerves. i'm trying really really REALLY hard to be nice & polite and shit, but it's easier said than done.

*^*^*^*^*^*

can't wait to get home. pajama's....popcorn....movies.....halo.....sleep......good times. ubergood times. (can't figure out how to do the symbol on my co-worker's laptop & am too lazy to spend time figuring it out) oh, and kittens will be there. ;) alyce needs a bath. i think i'll give her & hydee one tonite. or tomorrow. and then clean up my room. and then do laundry. and then vacuum my room & the rest of the house.

damn. have i mentioned how bad responsibility sucks? yes, yes i have.

*^*^*^*^*^*

well, i'm off to call & bitch out Texas Roadhouse for having taken so long with the order we put in an hour ago.

*^*^*^*^*^*

ha, yeah, and you thought this entry was going to be profound. ! =)
