Sometimes....

...I don't know what to feel.
Sometimes...I really just don't know how. Or what is right to feel.

I feel so happy. And I feel so sad. Betrayed, but yet the betrayer.

What is right?

How do I go back to what is right?

There is never time. I can't hold on to time...it's always leaving. Everything and everyone is always leaving.

And yet, is feeling even true? I cannot even trust my feelings. Yet, how do I live without them? Can I live without right or wrong?

I don't know. I wish I knew sometimes.

Sometimes.

tuesday work...

My day at work.

Me: "Hello. How are ya'll doing today?"
Table: *something indistinguishable*
Me: "...Can I get you started on something to drink?"
Table: *strange mumbling*
Me: "....What....would...ya'll....like to drink?" I'm trying to overly emphasize every word.
Table: "ehhhhh. uhmmmmm. waaater."

I notice as I walk off that the woman has no teeth and the man has one. ONE.
So I get them two waters. and free bread.

Me: "Are we ready to order now?"
Table: "Broccoli. and. Potatoes."
Me: "And for your entrees?" *by now, since the man seems mute, I assume that they will be ordering the exact same.*
Table: "THE SPECIAL!"
Me: *clearing my throat* "The menu is in front of you, there are 16 different items you can choose off of the special menu."
Table: "I WANT the sirloin."
Me: "Very well. It will be out shortly."

I grab their menus and stalk off. What the fuck did I do, seriously. I'm not going even going to ask how they want their steaks grilled, of course they're going to want them really really well done...burnt. Of course. I'm not going to ask if they want mashed potatoes or baked potatoes...or what they want on them. I don't care. You treat me badly, or yell at me, I'm going to want to spit in your food or give you terrible service. But I don't. Because some of us are above that.

I was cursed with these tables all damn day.

Okie, I trying to refrain from saying anything too terrible about people with no teeth, I get that you maybe you don't have money for dental care, etc, etc, but. Do not expect me to read your damn mind. Do not bitch at me. Do not treat me like your personal servant. I am not there for that. I'm not even there for you. I don't want to be your friend, I'm only there to make money. It is my job.

The end.

Hmmmm.

softball. and random shit.

so today, I am sunburnt.
the other day I went and watched sam play 5...6?...games of softball in a tournament. it was crazy. I sat out in the sun all day. by myself. and then with stephen.
they won two games. weee.

today. we watched them again. they won both games. severely kicked some ass. it was nice. stephen and phil and I talked about sex. then...we ate a 41oz bag of skittles. and mikeandikes. delicious.

I haven't had to work in 4 days...it's been pretty nice. but I go back to work tomorrow. work is good. tiring, but good. it's really difficult sometimes being nice to people. but that's what I do.

I've started watching the L word. I don't know if I like it yet or not. I do, but then I don't sometimes. then I do again. then I can't stop watching it. then I turn into freaky psycho L word freak. woah. that's getting weird. no, I don't know. it interests me. ;)

hmmmm. what else has been going on. that's all I can think of for now. I need to sew some more patches on my couch...there are rips and holes appearing everywhere. hmmm. yes.

alright, I'm off to watch a movie called 'elegy' with ben kingsley. then possibly some unconsciousness for a few hours.

good night to all.

in my head...

Damien Rice. Lonely Soldier.

Lonely Soldier go home,
Lonely, but never alone..
Good eyes, see nothing to shoot
Good feet, feel good, givin' up good boots

Ask your father how'd you fall
Ask your father how'd you fall
Like a leaf, sitting on the ground
Good for nothing, except kicking around..

She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with her mind full of doubt
and thought of weakening..
And so may your river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die...

Where did you get those cuts on your hand?
I thought I told you bout playin in the sand
There's always someone careless with glass
There's always questions no one won't ask

She died with her hand stretched out
She died with a hungry mouth
She died with her mind full of doubt
and thought of weakening..
May your river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die...

So Lonely Soldier go home,
Lonely, but never alone..
Good eyes, see nothing to shoot
Good feet, feel good, givin' up good boots

today...so far...

so today. I woke up at 6am. and stayed awake. this never happens. I usually work every night until 11.30, so I'm always sleeping late in the morning.

I don't remember what woke me up, maybe a dream. I think it was about vampires.

then I talked to Sam for a bit before he went to work. then I watched an episode of Life.
I meant to go outside, but I thought it would be too cold. so I didn't.
so I did random shit on my computer for a few hours...then I got bored. and decided to go back to bed.

so I fell asleep again. one time, Andy put his hands on my back, and I think I was dreaming again, because I thought they were Stephen's. hmmm. I don't know what this means.

and then I woke up at one. and took a shower. and now I am on my computer again. I have to work soon. so I think I might go be with Andy for a bit.

Damien Rice's "Lonely Soldier" has been stuck in my head today. listen to it.
