monday, so far.

the $2000 light* is illuminated on my dashboard. fuck.

my minolta's shutter is sticking and i lost about 15 pictures on a roll. have to get the cam fixed.

i burned up about 5 sheets of paper in the dark room because i am fucking exhausted & an idiot.

i got a $55 ticket in boston.

...and there was a "mid-term" today in class that he didn't tell us was going to happen. surprise.

to top it all off, i have to leave for class in 10 minutes and i read zero of the three readings we were supposed to it. maybe i'll get lucky and there'll be a test there also.

Updated:

late afternoon class cancelled. kind of a blessing. paper assigned due wed, though.

i may have to quit school after this semester and go back to work! yay.

i wish i were dead.

one big huge fuck-up.

last monday i received a letter from the MA version of the IRS. i have already done my taxes and filed last month. this notice is to my address here in NJ, but the addressee is my ex-husband's name. i open it, wondering if they've screwed up his address somehow and want to make sure it gets to him in time. i can SEE his SSN up in the top right corner. so this is really weird...because that's not even close to my number (born in 2 different parts of the country, even).

the letter states that the 2006 tax forms that were filed were not signed and to sign this attached form and remit within 30 days or suffer a lessened return or an exalted tax bill. fine enough.

i call my ex to make sure it isn't him that needs to return this.

he hasn't even filed yet this year. this notice is for ME. so, i call the number listed on this notice and wait to speak to a rep. "Joe Downs", no lie, tells me that after looking up my SSN in his system he finds out that my ex's info is under my number. the one i haven't lived or filed with since 2004.

my ex's info, address and all, is under my social security number. what part of "security" does that exactly reassure me?

so now, i am being forced to fax a copy of my picture ID and SSN to prove i am who i say i am - major lols - even though "Joe" can see my previous years filings under my correctly name and whatnot.

happy fun times.

this is what i get for filing way ahead of schedule. fuck you, irs.


(and i called my ex back to tell him that his SSN might have my info and he better call to make sure it is straight asap)

let it snow.

it snowed last night/today. we received about 2", tops. that was still enough for my school to cancel every class after 4pm. my only class today was at 4:40. i didn't shower because i had a feeling due to the snow that mumbles wouldn't be there anyway. silly. in minnesota this is unheard of.

i made a video today and put it up on youtube. it's pretty silly - the things i do when bored.

also, a random person named jesse found my blog via googling "splatter matter", which was kind of interesting. if you are still reading, jesse, welcome.

my dress that i ordered and had made for this saturday's event(The Men's Event in Boston) still ISN'T HERE. someone do something about that, okay? thanks.

enjoy the video, kids.

splatter matter.

i love when you see a looooooooong streak of paint on a highway or country road that stretches on for at least 100 yards. i also love to see an obvious huge SPLATTER of it somewhere as if someone dropped an entire can of it.

it just makes me giggle to think that someone spilled all that paint.

i might be losing my mind.

day 2.

day 2 of the yoga went off well, despite the hip lift maneuver making my left leg go "oh no you don't!" it did, but not before i promised it a piece of banana bread later.

lunch is delicious. baby spinach, vidalia onion dressing, wild skate sauteed in white wine, and a whole tomato sliced up and raw on the side. hardly any carbs. feels kind of good and it was DELICIOUS. did i say delicious? i mean delicious. mm mm.

last minute yesterday, i went for a job interview at an irish dive bar in neptune. i won't be brokenhearted if i don't get it, but it was kind of fun to go travel and see a scary part of the jersey shore............again.

my laptop crashed and burned last night. so long, days of watching DUN DUN* and perusing the web. sigh. dell's been alerted.

that's all from botsland today, folks. off to make banana bread.

i started yoga today. i am sure i'm doing it wrong for the most part, but it still kind of kicked my ass. i did not expect this.
