Chap 2
I think Gilly, or Galadriel as she would prefer, would change if she was with her mom, from a stuck-up, michevious, brat, to a nice person like you couldn't imagine. I mean look at the way she treated poor, helpless Mr. Randolph, at least she could of been nicer with her "Watch it"!
Gilly seems like a girl who doesn't care if her hairs gnarled with knots or what she wears. In another way I feel bad for her moving, + her new cramped bedroom that could be a bathroom!
I couldn't help but read the last page of the book, I like reading ends + having the adventure in the middle, I think they should have a continuation, after I read the end.
[I still read the end first [most times], and I've been thinking about it lately and I found that, weird!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

1. There are really cool shows, that I love. If I'm bored then, I watch T.V.
2. T.V. is also bad because it hurts your eyes. It can give you headaches if you make too loud + you might go wacko if you watch it too much.

Bright Eyes- Take it Easy [Love Nothing] |

So, last night I was doing a fill-in shift at this record store Accidental Records on Avenue A from 7 pm-3 am. The East Village is obviously ten times weirder and sketchier than working in the bourg-ass West Village. My job is to basically sit on a chair outside with the merchandise out there and make sure no one steals anything. So, at one point the owner of the store and a friend of his are standing outside as well, and his friend notices this man standing with a dog up the block because the owner's dog was kind of looking at it from afar. The owner goes, "Oh yeah, that dog is fake." And I was all like "REALLY? WHAT THE HELL? THAT'S SO CRAZY AH OMG." So yeah, this man with a pony tail stands there with this stuffed dog that is on a leash in sitting position. I immediately call Ali Mac as I view that as completely hilarious. I think the man heard me because at one point he kicked the fake dog and I was like, "He kicked it! He actually just kicked it!" and he looked over at me. A few minutes later, a womyn walks by with her two pups. One of them tries to sniff the behind of the fake dog. At this point the owner was at the curb smoking a cigarette or something. So he notices the real dogs and goes and walks back over to his fake dog to pick up the leash, and then he kicks the fake dog at the real dog to scare it! And I'm like, "WHAT THE FUCK?" and I start laughing but I'm kind of horrified at the same time. And the man is laughing, and notices me laughing and looking. He walks by pushing his dog ahead in front of him and laughs to himself as he walks by me because I am laughing. He stops at the restaurant next to the store where a man tries to pet the fake dog, and the owner of the fake dog laughs and goes along his way.
OTHER STRANGE HAPS:
Around when my shift was over, which actually ended around 4 more than 3, a womyn in a clown nose and make up walks by with a Pillow Person type of thing that is wearing rollerskates and she holds it so it can skate down the street.
Also, I got annoyed about 4-5 times by this drunk man who was trying to do my crossword, tell me how to make fish cakes, then convince me how fly he was and was professing his love for me. Every time he came back I was more and more of an asshole and kept telling him wasn't cool. He also tried to tell the owner that he was going to take his dog and that the owner's dog was his. The owner eventually had to call the cops because he was just getting so overbearing and annoying, and of course he left after he called the owner a "faggot" and other great terms. When I went to get the L train after my shift, of course that drunk fucker was in the station, but he was passed out. So I walked by really quickly to the other end of the platform and I was worried I would wake him because I was jingle-jangling from the contents in my pocket. He missed the next L train.

Your Birthdate: December 19 |
Your birth on the 19th day of the month adds a tone of independence and extra energy to your life path.
But at the same time, it poses a number of obstacles to overcome before you are able to be as independent as you would like. The number 1 energy suggests more executive ability and leadership qualities than your path may have indicated.
A birthday on the 19th of any month gives greater will power and self-confidence, and very often a rather original approach. However, a somewhat self-centered approach to life that may be in conflict with some of the other influences in your life.
This 1 energy may diminish your ability and desire to handle details, preferring instead to paint with a broad brush.
You are sensitive, but your feeling stay somewhat repressed.
You have a compelling manner that can be dominating in many situations.
You do not tend to follow convention or take advice very well.
Consequently, you tend to learn through experience; sometimes hard experiences.
The 19/1 is a loner number and you may experience feelings of being alone even if you are married.
You may take on a tendency to be nervous and angry. |

So, last night I was at Otto's Shrunken Head, a tiki bar in the Village. I was there to see my friend's band that plays there every Monday. When I walked in, I noticed something was awry. There were madd peeps, and food on the tables in the back. It was a birthday party! Many of the attendee's were into the Burlesque scene?? And from what I saw last night, I don't think I want to ever see any of it ever again, haha. I mean, they were the kind of people...like for example, the birthday boy had a cowboy hat with those Hot Topic-esque flames on the sides. like CMON. Okay, so at one point I started to freak out to the guy who DJ's there about how "The Lizard Man" was at the bar. I saw him on this show once on the Discovery channel or something with other characters such as himself, like Tiger Man, Cat Woman, you know... SO, at one point I notice that Lizard was looking at me, and I was just like, "Oh no...Lizard Man is totally going to talk to me at some point" as he walked by and smiled. So I was sitting down, watching the band and drinking some booze, and who sits down next to me?? None other than Lizard Man. The conversation that ensued went a lil somthin like dis:
LM: Hey, how are you doing? What's your name?
ME: Good...I'm Kristie, what's your name?
LM: Lizard.
ME: Oh...yeah, I've seen you on tv before.
Then "Lizard" goes into something about how they use him on TV shows blahblah, and I'm like - yo what you doing in nyc? and he's all like- i'm doing crazy stunts in between bands tomorrow night at Irving Plaza- you know feeling pain- getting lit on fire, swallowing swords, having things thrown at me to make me feel pain. and I'm all like, "COOL WHATEVER MAN, WHATEVER FLOATS YR BOAT!" At one point I couldn't really see the band, so I sat on the chair on my knees, and Lizard put his arm on the chair and I think he was trying to touch my leg or something totally not kosher? So I did an obvious shift over.
He then started to talk to the DJ more about comedy clubs in Arizona or something, and LIZZY eventually got up and left.
So, every time after that when I walked by him he would say some comment, or "hi", or some lame ass bullshit. And then at one point when I was making my way outside to talk on the phone and do other things, LZ grabs me by the waist and says, "SHE LOOKS REALLY INTERESTING" and I was like, "UM...I HAVETO GO OUTSIDE TO DO THINGS, BYE!" and jetted. After that, LM wasn't bothering me really. However, at one point I was talking to a man who is in a Devo cover band called Deva and kept on talking about wanting to leave and go to a gay club and while we were talking a man comes up to me that I don't know and gives me a hug and I go, "Um...hi?" And he eventually invites us to sit at a table, where he proceeded to discreetly snort coke, and tell me that he is talking to the cutest girl in the bar, and then I proceed to tell him that the bass player I am actually there to see is my b/f- LIES!!!!
He wasn't too interested in that, and Devo guy and I leave, and then Devo guy proceeds to tell me that he is actually a cop who patrols city parks at night [this being after I say I'm only 20 years old and when he saw the guy do coke at the table] and how he thought it was funny that the guy did coke in front of him because of that and how most of the parties he goes to are broken up by cops. I gave him my e-mail address, WHO AM I?!?!
Later on, Lizard is back on the scene, doing a lot of fake humping with his testosterone filled buddies. Except it was extremely intense and violent and my friend and I stood there like wtf wtf but laughing.
ALL IN ALL, A GOOD NIGHT!!
WHY IS MY LIFE SO GOOD? AT LEAST I KNOW TO NEVER GO NEAR ANY BURLESQUE EVENTS.
OH AND AT SOME POINT THIS BURLESQUE DANCER LITERALLY TOOK OFF ALL HER CLOTHES WHEN THE BAND COVERING NELLY SAID "IT'S GETTING HOT IN HEA' SO TAKE OFF ALL YO CLOTHES" SHE DANCED TOPLESS AND DID SPLITS. WTF?!

i totally did something yesterday that pertains to the era of my life that these diary entries are from. i went to the skating rink, hotskates, around the block from my dads house. i walked there with weedhall and met j.wads, and bob and clancy came later. we were really psyched. so you know, we're all sk8ing around the little circle about 50 times, watching the body count of children falling, and suddenly when me and j.wads were sk8ing together, this girl, who must have been around thirteen, pushed by jess and said, "EXCUSE ME!" and we were like, "what the fuck?" and we saw her talking to her cronies that comprised of kids that must have been from 7-to perhaps 16 (?) about us, like she was all pissed, and she kept looking behind at us and giving us dirty looks. and we were like "wtf wtf" and i was honestly getting so scared, like i would have in middle school, and i felt like i was back in that time. and then i was trying to get a grip like, "c'mon kristie, you're TWENTY, these are kids." so they proceeded to taunt j.wads, the next thing that happened was the girl who looked like she was the oldest skated by and was like, "some people just don't know how to sk8 these days." and then this boy they were with, who must have been 13, purposely knocked into her trying to make her fall. later, they called her a "bitch" and when she said "what did i do?" the girl who started it all was like, "don't even go there!" and wouldn't answer her. later, when i was back on the rink during the couple sk8, we were talking about how they would probably make fun of us and call us "dykes" if we held hands during the couple sk8. the boy passed boy and said something [which he did like everytime] and j.wads thought he had just called her a "dyke", even though she was holding hands with weedhall. and j.wads was like, "i mean he just called me one so it doesn't matter." when the boy came back around he was like, "are you making fun of me?!" and she was like, "no i thought you had called me a 'dyke'." and he was like "oh." and he got off the rink, and when he came back with the cronies, me and j.wads were holding hands. the oldest girl passed by and was like "DYKES DYKES DYKES DYKES." and during rest of the times the boy past he kept saying "ewwwwww." the last song, which was "can't take my eyes off of you", me and j.wads were dancing and this little girl who was like seven, was like, "omg please stop blah blah blah." and when we were getting off the rink they were like "eww ewewewewew" and j.wads was like "YEAH I'M SO DISGUSTING." and when we were leaving, and were outside, they kept calling us "doopdie" or something like that. clancy was ready to throw down the whole time, and bob was just keeping to himself trying to do crazy tricks. ALL IN ALL, A GOOD DAY.

St. Patrick's Day [insert drawing of a shamrock]
Dear Diary,
Today I went to the doctors and found out that I have strep throat and flued in my ears. My mom said that when I was a baby green flued would ooze out of my ear. I have clear flued wich means it's not that bad, green flued means it's very bad, I had tubes go inside my ears when I was a baby. I am now taking an antibiodic CeClore twice a day. Strep is contagous and now my moms throat is hurting. I feel happy and sad, I don't know why happy!?! Because I'm sick!!
My mom said I never cried when the green flued oozed out of my ear, but when I went to the hospital I cried when I was a baby. I'm going to my dad's house today, I'm bringing The Lion King and the Wizard of Oz I got the Lion King on Wensday. I hope my mom doesn't have strep too!!
This morning Melissa and James said I was faking my sickness! But just wait until they get home, I'm going to tell them who's faking now!!
Tonight for dinner we're having corn beef, potatoes, carrots, cabbage, rye bread, and soda bread, Yummy!!
Oh, in two weeks I haveto go back for a check up for my strep throat, and flued ears.

Dear Diary,
Why doesn't Andrew call me? He lies to me all the time he makes me cry, if he makes me feel this pain, why does he like me? Also, I'm jealous of Maria, she's much better than me, and they're all going to HotSkates [sidenote:LOL] tomorrow and I can't go and Mary and Andrew are both able to go!! This means that Andrew will probably get closer to her like her more than me. [which is true already!!] I mean when we were at the Thinking Spot at the Creek I said "Me and Maria think the same thing, that you like the other person better." and he was just staring at the water so I said "Did you hear what I said?" he said "Yes." and usually he says "I like you the same" but not this time, which probably means he --->
likes one of us more.....Maria. It's so obvious, I love him too much now to have my feelings hurt and they already are. The only time he ever remembered to call me back was when Mary slept over and when I said on the phone earlier "Maria can't play tomorrow" he said "Oh man!!" whenever I say I can't play he goes "Oh, maybe another day." He's hurt me one too many times, I mean why am I wasting my time and life on Andrew??
Love,
Kristie
