Sick. AS. A. Dog.

I've been throwing up/having bad potty experiences since like 1am this morning.

I'm missing school because I'm afraid that if I go more than 3 feet away from the toilet I'll seriously regret.

I'm at the stage now where after I throw up I'm screaming, " There is nothing left! How could more stuff be coming out!! "

I think it's the McDonald's Double Cheeseburger I had a couple days ago because get this. My roommate went through this same process ( and it ended ) about a day ago.

So either it's food poisoning or a stomach flu. Either way I really need to keep some water down. :(

Bleh.

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this yet, but my roommate who recently moved in, brought her cat over to live with us a couple days ago :)

So now that brings the kitty count to 4.

Which I don't mind.

We're just making sure that all the kitties will get along.

Her kitty is 5 years old, fat, and absolutly adoreable. Not mention quite the talker. I think talker is a nice way of putting it :) Meows constantly when in the presence of anything with a pulse :) hehe... But still very soft and very pretty. Her name is Baby :)

So the status at this point is that they're all fully aware of eachother and pretty much all they do is hiss. Nothing violent or anybody chasing anybody else. The first night they all met was a bit dramatic. Spooky was acting rather crazy and mean. But other than that nobody seems to mind eachother.

Baby spends most of her time in my roommate's room hiding under the bed with the door closed. But we've been leaving the door open more and more frequently. :)

So Baby is feeling more and more social and is actually coming out to ahem... do what she does best... Beg audibly for as much attention and humanly possible :)

It's very cute :)

I'm so used to spooky meowing for attention that I had no idea when I absentmindedly pet the cat that I was petting baby and not spooky :)

Tonight I made a lot of cookies and lots of pasta. And now I'm pooped and going to bed to rest for a day of homework and cleaning. Yay.

So did I mention I'm still not doing anything for my birthday?

As in, I'm free to hang out.

HINT.

So I had an absolutly wonderful thanksgiving :)

First, I spent the day chilling at home with my roommate til both of us had to leave :) So I got all dolled up, cleaned the tattoo, and headed out on the road.

First stop was Johanna's father's house :) I got to see Alex, Radar, and I met her father ( johanna's ) and Jeff.

I had a great time, while it was short, just hanging out and talking. Plus, Johanna's dad took lots of pics which made me feel like such a camera whore :) hah :)

Then shortly after, it was off to my family's place.

I had a great time and they got me a few really nice presents :) YAY :) for my birthday :)

I feel like I really belonged for the first time in a long time :)

Then my cousin and I drove my grandma home to Napa. After that, we drove back to concord so I could get my car and go home.

And now I'm home :)

All in all... it was a great day :) I got to see my friends and family :)

Tomorrow I'm going to try to get some work done before hanging out with Johanna for a mini, girly bday celebration :) Yay girltalk :) hehe...

And now.. the moment you've all been waiting for! My (  TATTOO!! )

For a birthday present to myself.

On a whim, I got a rather colorful and cute ( and very painful ) tattoo today on my upper back between my shoulders.

If you're lucky,

I'll post a pic :)

I was a brave little soldier and didn't cry. The artist is in love with the piece and we're gonna add one more little bit to it when I get some more money. :)

So based on the fact that I got NO responses.

I'm going to just naturally assume that no one wants a christmas card from me.

Which, while very disappointing, saves me money on postage, I suppose.

( The car report )

( Greediness ensues! )

( Christmas shopping already?! )

( My life my life my life... )

And finally. If you would like a Christmas Card from me, leave me a comment with either your address or e-mail me your address at Dragonreleasedwithen@yahoo.com... I'd like to get them going soon!

"Flirt with the rose...Lick the petals. " - Me.

Ok. So I know what you're all thinking...

" But Jessica, it's 1pm, why are you at home and not at school!? "

Well Folks.

Let me tell you why!

I have no car!

Ok so I have a car. It's currently being repaired.

I was driving from Daly City yesterday to drop Loren off at work when I noticed my temp gauge was all the way at overheating.

I pulled over and saw that my car had no coolant in it.

So I filled the coolant thingy with water and opted to go to Jiffy Lube for an oil change and coolant.

I got to Jiffy Lube and was told my coolant level was fine. ( Uhm. What? )

I told them there was water in there so it may look fine but it isn't. They suggested I pay 60 bucks and do a radiator flush. ( uhm. Ok. Great. )

I thought it over and told them I would do it.

$110 later. I'm back on the road and everything looks fine. Except for when they pulled my car out after it had been serviced and I asked.. " Uhm.. is it supposed to be leaking that much fluid out of the front of the car? "

To which they replied.. " Yup, it's fine! "

Ok.... Sure. why not. Like I work at Jiffy Lube? Although. I was a little skeptical.

So drive drive drive. The car seems fine.

This morning I was driving and my temp gauge starts to hit overheating again. I pull off the freeway and check for coolant. It's empty. Again.

Turns out there's a leak. Goddamnit. Stupid f'n jiffy lube. Bastards.

So I put more water in and drive to the garage my grandma took the car to when she had it. Loren and I go get breakfast and I get a call for my estimate.

660. Yes. That's right. There is appearantly a hole in my radiator among other horrible things wrong with my car that need replacing. Also they suggested I should replace my timing belt.

Fuck.

So my grandma volunteered to let me use her credit card to charge the work and then pay her back. Great. I opted to have my rotors replaced also since I was already there.

So here I am. At home. I got a ride from the garage. And they're going to pick me up when it's done.

Missed all of my classes.

Bleh.

Only 2 I promise :)
