Feeling like a hardcore worker tonight. People were just dropping their trays full of dishes and running off. It was upsetting me so I just started busing their trays, restocking their dishes that I am not supposed to do, and running my dish station on top of that. In the process of doing the multiple jobs I managed to have a steak knife stab into the side of my hand and stick about an inch in. I just pulled it out, wrapped my hand with paper towels and duct tape and went back to work with a glove on. My hand hurts a bit but I have delt with worse. As my grandmother used to say "It's a long way from my heart." Just goes to prove that I can get the job done no matter what it takes.

I am hoping to get to go to some cool conventions after I get my armor done to join the 501st. They allow a small number of 501st members to get into scifi conventions for free to collect toys for sick children. I went to a lot of hair conventions when I was a cosmetologist. I used to compete in the lady's cut color and design category.

There is a big convention in New Jersey every year that seemed interesting. I was never able to go because of work but it looked like a fun time. It is called the Geek Kink Convention. It is a 3 day event that concentrates on the obscure geek fetishes. They had brain teaser kink forums, robotic vendors, and all kinds of other things that you wouldn't normally think of when talking about fetishes. They actually had a "Muppet Babies" room the one year. Voltaire goes every year and performs there. I still want to make the trip sometime.

Thank you for making it clickable. It will be a little difficult for me to go but I am going to do my best. I will probably be stuck at work until after midnight and I will have to get changed because I don't think anyone would want me showing up in my soaking wet dishwashing clothes. Although there might be someone into that sort of thing. lol. I am trying really hard to get out and meet new people but I am the only dishwasher right now so I am lucky to get one day off a week and I work a ton of overtime. I feel like I am getting my butt beat, not in the fun way. lol

I just found out that Liquid Red is having a Bondage Ball on September 19th at the Token Lounge in Westland. It is a 21+ event from 9pm-2am. There will be Djs, a fashion show and much more. I am thinking of going if I can get out of work at a decent time that night. Check out their website if you are interested in finding out more. www.LiquidRedLV.com

I will share it on my facebook. Sorry I can't donate at the moment.

I am feeling a lot better. My chest pain has almost completely gone away. I think that taking Ibuprofen and using heating pads has helped with the muscle soreness and the decision to let the things that truly don't matter slide has really helped. I just need to except that there are a lot of things that I can't fix and that is ok. I can't hold in all the stress, anger, and frustration so I won't even let it develop in the first place.

The park I live in is called Old Dutch Farms II. You can find them on facebook. It's at 27000 Napier Road, Novi.

There are new places in the development I live in. You could move to Novi and be my neighbor. I am kind of creepy but I don't do drugs and tend to sleep till around noon. Though I am awake till about 4am. Lol. I have pet snakes, rats, turtles, reptiles, and dogs to play with though.

You are always welcome to come visit my girlfriend and I in Novi. I tend to have Monday's off.

I feel like Adam Sandler's character from Anger Management. I bottle everything up and don't let any of it out or stand up for myself. Maybe I should just start singing "I feel pretty" every time something upsets me.

I used to get a lot of flashes from memories in my life when I was doing the carny circuit. It would actually help to calm me down when I was doing really dangerous escape stunts.

I started having pretty sever chest pains while at work last night. It wasn't as bad during the day today but came back while at work again tonight. I am thinking it may be an ongoing anxiety attack because of me holding on all of my anger and frustrations. I just hope I can figure out how to get the pain to stop. It is all on the left side like a stabbing from front to back. I would be afraid of it being a heart attack but I don't have any numbness.

https://youtu.be/WQLEjBUU9kI https://youtu.be/r2Uab6qzM9s I used to sing these songs to my nephew when he was a baby. I haven't been able to see him for several years because of my sister. Long story that isn't pleasant to get into but lets just say my sister and I don't talk anymore.

My dad moved away without any warning. I came home from work and he had his car packed up and said he was moving to Florida. A week later he sent me a David Bowie cd, knowing David Bowie is my favorite musician. This is the first song I heard on that album. https://youtu.be/fmEnRtMaeCo

I still prefer the old but good "Is there a mirror in your pocket? Because I can see myself in your pants." Or "Are you tired? Because you have been running through my mind all day." My friends and I used to play the cheesy pick up line game with each other. It was always fun.

I am tired and beaten up. Working open till close tomorrow. I guess I will be earning my one day off this week. They have one of the bus boys covering on Monday so I can have the day off. Last time they had a buser scheduled to cover for me, he called off and I ended up working open till close. Let's hope that doesn't happen again.

It was an oral surgery. Years of fire eating destroyed the enamel on my teeth. I looked at how much it would cost to get them all capped and crowned and it was insane. I opted to get almost all of my teeth surgically removed, which we found out was a good plan since my K9 teeth had hooked roots that were actually growing into my sinuses. 28 teeth, including all 4 impacted wisdom teeth, in one shot. I woke up half way through the procedure and they actually removed 4 teeth before I regained the ability to move my hand enough for them to realize I was awake.

I had PTSD from waking up in the middle of surgery. It was horrible. It took over 2 years for the night terrors to subside enough to get restful sleep without medication. I feel for what you are going through.

I work mostly evenings and may not get many days off for awhile. I am currently the only dishwasher at work. Mondays are the most likely days for me to have off work. I will try to meet up for coffee sometime if I can get the time off. Just let me know where and when. I am in Novi but I have a gps on my phone so I can find out how to get places.

I can't make it tomorrow. Lol. I have that stupid work thing I have to go to from 3pm till after close. I will probably be stuck there until after midnight again. I don't want to adult tomorrow.

I miss playgrounds. I was always a small kid in my area but I always jumped further than anyone else off the swings. I just wasn't scared of much. I guess things never really change that much. I am still the crazy one in my group of friends.

Why is it so hard to get other people to work the dish station at a restaurant? There was another person who has been working a few days a week so I could have a little help on busy nights but she is going back to college next week. It's such an easy job, I don't get it. You go in, wash all the dishes, get your paycheck and go home. I guess I won't be getting many days off for awhile. At least the overtime will go back up again. I am currently the only dish person and the only one in the restaurant that is allowed as much overtime as I want without approval. I guess that means I do a good job.

I like coffee. We should hang out at a coffee shop sometime. My family used to run a coffee shop so I was always chilling out with my friends over lattes. I miss those days.

Feeling lonely. I planned to make a meal that is a very big deal back home and I invited all my coworkers. I figured that since we work in a restaurant they would be interested in trying different foods. No one showed up. I even invited my girlfriend's cousin and he didn't show up either. I miss the days of having friends who would just randomly show up and hang out. They even had keys to my place so I would wake up in the morning and find the gang having breakfast watching cartoons. I know it is harder to make friends in a new place and the older you get the harder it is. Oh well. Someday I will have friends that live near by again.
