So I hear Green Day has a new album. I guess if I were 16, I'd care, but ever since "Warning" and especially after their over-the-top, boring political album "American Idiot", this will be one album I will happily not be purchasing. I don't want music with a message. I don't want music to tell me what they think of the government or their ideas about God. I want music to take me to another place, probably because I feel sad or mad. I want a song to tell me there is a light at the end of the tunnel or help me imagine beating someone's face in. If I want political crap, I will turn on the news for an endless stream of murdurous rampages, war, rapes, bombs, etc. I certainly dont need Green Day to help with that. I guess I am just annoyed at their "new" direction. Like I am supposed to take a pot-smoking, eye-liner wearing guy seriously about politics and God. Hm, yeah, I don't think so.
Yeah what is UP with the eyeliner, geez! OKAY I GET IT, you're down, hip, emo whatever, just please stop wearing eyeliner!!!!
Anyway, my car was going nuts today, but now it seems to be doing okay. Now I am just confused. Right now I filled the radiator with water, but I have to get it out and fill it with coolant. If I can find the spigot on the bottom, maybe I can do it myself without going to the mechanic? We'll see. Im interested in doing it myself.
You know, I originally brought up the Green Day thing because this guy I used to date, The Captain, once sais that the song "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" was applicable at the moment. I was amused and annoyed at the same time because here was Mr. Pathetic, all mopey and stupid about his life and at the same time I was annoyed that we were together and yet he still crying his "Im so alone" theme. What a douchebag. I wish him many constipated nights.
If my car blows up, I will post.

Weeks Going By...
It's been about a month since the wedding and I am definately glad it is over. It seems that everyone had a good time and I am sort aproud to announce that the wedding itself came out to $1451! I didnt include the marriage license fee, but with that, it comes to $1549! Am I brilliant or what? And I still had ice cream left over!
Okay in any case, I am sitting at work now because I just came back from the social secuity office to change my name. When I was pulling out, the dashboard tells me my coolant is low. Im confused because I just checked it a couple of weeks ago. Well, I blast the heater and I am able to get to work, not without the car having to be restarted almost at the home stretch. I am able to pull into a parking spot and I am waiting for the car to cool down when a mobile mechanic stops by to help. Well, he fills the tank and gives me his card, and a few minutes later, the car is puking the coolant all over the ground. So now I am annoyed because I am not sure if I should drive the car home and monitor the levels like I did to get to work or call that guy or trash the car or something. It is ten years old. The problem is that I wanted to buy some furniture this weekend and I was going to put a big charge on my credit card for that, but now I am reconsidering because maybe I should use those monthly payments to get a new car. Or newer car. I guess I should talk to the hubby. Maybe he can help.
Its been THREE YEARS since I finally graduated and I am still contemplating what to do. Obviously I am not going to try to move up at fedex anymore. Thats done. I am still thinking about school. What I do want is a better or different job. I was thinking about becoming an OTR driver with my husband. Ive thought about that for a while now. It would be fun to drive teams with him. I can bring my cat too, lol! We'd make more money than we do now and we would have less expenses since we wouldnt be at home. Its something to consider.
In other news, my mother and father are at it again about the house. This time my father wants to get rid of my mother once and for all. She told me they went to court and they have a new court date in June. She asked me if I want to buy his share. I said I would for $180,000. I don't really want the house because it needs quite a bit of repairs. Not to mention its full of my mothers "junk." If I bought it, I would have to live there until it's fixed up. It's a nice house and I would want it, but I don't have plans to live in NY anymore and if I did, I'd rather live on Long Island. I feel bad for my mother a bit because she really wants to live in NY but I dont think there is much I can do for her. I would rather buy a house out here than use up my mortgage money on my old house. If it were up to me, I would have her sell it and she can move out here and get a nice house for $150,000, maybe even one on my block. But she doesnt listen to me and she is so hung up on NY. Who cares about NY, what the hell is so great about NY? I should correct myself, its NYC. I like Long Island. Ugh! This whole thing is stupid. She should just sell it. She wants to be a prisoner of my father and that house forever. And I give her all sorts of good ideas and I tell her she can live here but it's not good enough, so whatever. I cant keep saying the same things over and over. If she wants to be stressed out until the day she dies then so be it.
Thank God its a three day weekend. I need a break.

One thing Ive wanted to do:
Your result for What's your key signature?...
B Minor
Hey, what's an emo's favorite key signature? B MINOR LOLOLOL
Congratulations, you’re B Minor, which is surprisingly not the depressing key signature, as the pun up there would indicate. B Minor is the equivalent of a crazy guy on a rooftop shouting at the top of his lungs angrily during a fireball storm in a war zone. It’s the key you turn to when you want something angry and rocking. The key isn’t too hard to play in for most instruments, but guitars and bass guitars can really slash it up on B Minor if they know what they’re doing. Sure, you could be forlorn and quiet, but who the hell wants that when you could rip the heads off some innocent bystanders?
All right, dude. Calm yourself down and read this, I know that description got you all pumped up and ready to rip the heads off some innocent bystanders. This is the key of aggression and power, and with great power comes great responI’m going to stop before you rip MY head off.
SONG EXAMPLE: The finale from the musical Godspell. (Only B Minor could make the death of Jesus seem like it’s a fucking rock concert.)
INTERESTING TIDBIT:
* One of the most popular compositions for guitar of all time, Concierto de Aranjues, is in B Minor. And even for a nylon stringed acoustic song, it rocks your socks off.
