The gardner from next door was using a weed whacker and shot a rock right at my window causing it to shatter as I was reversing. I know he saw but he pretendended not to notice. I had to stop, get out of the car, and tell him what he just finished doing. Knowing that my spanish wouldn't get me far in resolving the situation, I had to involve my mother so she could mediate the whole thing. The gardner guy had the nerve to try to make it my fault by saying that I had made it look like I was going on the other side of the street when I really wasn't. He agreed to pay for half of the cost. I know he is at fault with his negligence but I'm not gonna spend anymore time than I have to on the issue. I don't need my anxiety issues being amplyfied by this stupid incident.
My school loan came through. It should hold me over till I start the internship next month.
I had lunch with my former bosses (they're the ones who fired me because my drug use had gotten so out of hand back in 2007). My ex bosses are two partners who gave me a car, made sure I was well off financially, and paid for two outpatient rehabs. I did my Step 9 with them and sincerely apologized for all of the rotten things I had done to them. They accepted my apology and said it was all in the past. I was touched. When you hangout with junkies, hurtful boyfriends who use your addiction against you, and alcoholics for years straight, you forget that there's good honest people out there.
I bought a new Nikon lense!
I'm staying home a lot more. I know I'm isolating myself from the world but I need time to sort my billion thoughts that fire through my head at all times. I like to stay home and work on art. Art is the only thing that lets my mind zero in on a specific task and serves as an escape from daily life. I worked on some self portraits with my new lense and some futuristic shades I found at a dive store. I also worked on a revision on a mini book from a photo shoot I did in a school fashion show. They can be seen on both of my deviantART accounts.
Finished watching Rome Season 2; twas scandaliciously delightful.

ReplyDeletehow very dare he!
and yes you dont need that adding to your stresses. i was once knocked into a weir. i got stuck on a peice of wood and left there. !
when i caught up with the personwho had doen it first off she said "where on earht have you been" then wheni told her i'd got stuck onthe lock tshe told me i hadn't told me she had told me not to do that.' yes its my fault i got stuck and almost drowned. yes its my faunt that as she told me to stay away fro the lock she moved in my out sideand across effectively directing me intot eh lock yesits my faultno one heard me yelling for help its my fault no one bothered to hang back. riiight!
i dropped it quickly but it still buggs me lol inthe backof my mind. not because it wasme but because of what if it had ben her? she wouldn't have hte stength to prise her self off the lock. if it had been one of the old men he would have struggledif it had been a novice they wouldn't have kept ballenced.
i'm glad you met up with yout old bosses and i'm glad they forgave you. there are some amazeing people out there you forget with all the hate and war. but they exist yesterday i saw a business man haveing a chat with a tramp/begger. they were laughing together and smileng. and it made my day. some thing so simple made my day.
