time means nothing

July 25, 2008

Needed an update. I’m missing Tues-Thurs, and I won’t be able to update again utnil Monday.

Tuesday: Nothing special enough that I can remember. I think it was Tuesday however that I got the phone call from “Bless” about filming at Cagney’s again. It has to have been Tuesday, cause that’s when the “week/weekend planning from hell” began.

It all started w/being asked to film for this dude named “Bless”. I think his real name is Chris and I THINK the group he runs with is called FAM (Forever About Music – as seen in my show preview a few months ago; they’re the guys in white shirts with writing on them, near the end). Anyway, he asked me if I could do a concert music video, something along those lines, on Friday. Of course, after receiving the old “do whatever you think looks best”, I was stuck with trying to think of ideas myself and dig up my old camera (since he wanted two angles – feel bad, Gavino has to walk around with this tiny PoS [though it was my first, so i guess it gets love]).

Raid went well. MH was cleared up to Arch, got a few attempts in, and called it a night. Full night of Arch Thursday we figured.

Wednesday: Talked to Gavino about the whole thing, he was up for it. Went to mom’s after work for dinner. She seems so strange lately. While we were eating, there was a moment of silence, and it wasn’t for very long. We were watching Cash Cab like we usually do on Fridays, and she freaked out all of a sudden (if she knew I said “freaked out”, she really would freak out, lol). She was like “WHY is noone saying anything” and such. After telling her to calm down, and hearing her say things like “Why am I the one to always start a conversation”, we moved the topic and moved on with our lives.

Speaking of her, the follwing is a mix of things that has been going on up till today (and probably will happen at least once more, which will drive me to the point of screaming). As I’ve discussed already, mom’s going to Long Beach Island and I said I’d go w/her this weekend so she wasn’t alone (since Terry’s drugs drain his energy until mid-week, when she will pick him up and I’ll watch the house [next week]). She asked me, what feels like, nine thousand times “Are you sure you want to go? Are you really sure? If you think you won’t have a good time, you don’t have to go. Don’t go just because of me. Don’t go if you don’t want to. I want to make sure you really want to go”.

At first, I went along with it and told her I wanted to go and keep her company, but after the 5th time (at least), I started saying things like “I don’t really want to go, but I’m going to because I’d like to keep you company”. Then a few more times hearing it, “You know I hate the beach, but I’ll go” and “Well, Gavino wants to hang on Saturday, so I’ll drive up Saturday night and we’ll have Sunday at least”. Today I got it again and I had it. “Stop pestering me about it, it’s driving me crazy”, received by “You’re driving ME crazy”, and retorted with “Listen, I can’t stand it anymore, I’m driving down Saturady night, I’ll be there all of Sunday, stop asking me” (of course there was a bit more involved, like me stating how she wouldn’t stop pestering me). She ended with “I’ll talk to you later” and that was the end of the conversation.

To end Wed. night, I got home around 8:30, laid on the bed for a minute, and woke up at 4:45AM.

Thursday: Work was as usual, nothing special. I think I got some deliveries at some point this week, though I can’t remember (besides the ones today [Friday]). Raid was great. Archimonde down after only a few attempts. Zauvirr was haven’t lag problems, so we replaced him and got someone else in while he restarted his shit. We downed Arch that next attempt, in which he proceeded to have a hissy fit. Whatever. Then we traversed to Black Temple and killed the first 3 bosses again and called it a night. I then proceeded to hop on the alli warrior and get to level 17.

Friday: So far, not too bad. 2 deliveries, some print work, some map work. This morning was a bit hectic, had to get everything ready for tonight. Not really looking forward to filming another rap show, but whatever, what can I do. I want to do film, so I guess I have to continue starting somewhere with things like this. As I said before, I feel bad for Gavino cause he’s gonna have to use my old camera, which isn’t the best, but I can’t find any video camera rental places and I didn’t want to ask mom for hers (and it’s more of a hastle anyway for probably the same quality).

So after work, in 30 min, I’ll head to mom’s, say hi, and then head to Gavino’s. Then we’ll get the address again and head up to Cagney’s to meet “Bless”. I’m sure it will be awkward, since it’s not really my scene, and I’d rather be doing drunken Kara, or even just hanging with Gavino and April, but whatever…maybe it won’t be so bad and we’ll actually do something decent/get paid for it this time.

Then the rest of the weekend will be filled with hanging w/Gavino and April (Saturday) until I finally decide to leave and head to Long Beach Island (Saturday night sometime) and beach it up (Sunday). Then it’s right back to work Monday morning FROM Long Beach Island…so that should be a blast ><

Time to finish up at work…bleh

Vast open sky can do no harm
