Everson Poe - The Ghost Of Prom Night (Live at The Bucktown Pub)
i am still amazed that i worked up the balls to sing in front of people tonight at work.
i wrote this song for kylee back in 2008.
listening to the national, waiting for the train. I can tell today will be one of those days wherein I cry for no reason that I can discern until later. or maybe I’m aware of the reason and I’m in denial.
awesome things that happened today
• justine moved in. i feel like i have my long-lost sister back after over three years.
• we saw bridesmaids with my parents, which was hilarious.
• both mal & kaylee already like justine, which is unprecedented for anyone.
• i realized that i’d really be ok if courtney stopped talking to me (i wouldn’t be happy, but i’d be ok)
i have a really horrible, persistent cough. the kind of cough that i’m afraid to cough around other people because i think i’ll get them sick.
oh, and i’m working at the bar tonight from 8pm-2am. hopefully i don’t kill anybody.
Some one bring me some ice-cream, and snuggle on the couch with me ad play with my hair while we watch a movie. I feel like being a girl haha.
this is literally how i feel 95% of the time.
i’ve been awake for over 18 hours. i just worked 7 hours at a bar. i have to be up in 5 hours to work with dad tomorrow.
at least i’m makin’ moneys!
things that suck
• going to concerts alone
• thinking your friend was going to come with you to a concert, resigning yourself to the fact that she cant, then having her say she is definitely coming, until she gets sick and, an hour before the show, decides that she’s too sick to go
• selling your extra ticket for just under face value and then realizing that you probably sold it to scalpers, rather than someone who really wants to see the show
• leaving the show early to get back to her place to check on her, only to have her say she’s sleeping and too tired for company
• every drunk person walking and every car driving around wrigleyville, with no regard whatsoever for bicyclists
• being out of milk, because i want a fucking bowl of cereal or some oreos
• NOT the deftones or the dillinger escape plan (they were both great)
• NOT the fact that i rode my bike 6.4 miles this morning and 4.4 miles this evening
instead of waiting for the transfer at howard tonight, i rode my bike home, adding another mile, and bringing my total to over 23 miles for the day
i rode my bike a total of 22.3 miles today.
5.5 this morning. 7.3 miles to courtney’s, with her. and just now, i rode 4.7 miles all the way back to her work where she left her wallet, and then 4.7 miles back to her place.
not only am i the greatest person ever, i’m also going to get in really good shape.
i’ve officially overcome my fear of riding my bike in the city
i took my usual 5.5 mile ride this morning, and then courtney and i rode down to her place this afternoon, which is in the city, and it went by like nothing. good to know that i can ride into the city without having a panic attack or dying!
i feel a bit like an asshole
i woke up at 5:45am to get ready to go in to Stay, the dog hotel for my first real day of work. i promptly threw up twice and realized that, after the week i’ve had, i would not possibly be able to function at a 6-hour shift, dealing with a giant mass of dogs. so i called and left a message to inform them that i would not be coming in, and that i don’t think the job is a good fit for me. the sad thing is that i was really going to try, but i simply couldn’t today. and the worse thing is that, had i decided this last night, i could have worked with dad today, thus making a little bit of money.
yeah, sorry, no one cares about this shit. i just needed to write it down.
