Still, lots of love and support for Whirls & Stash!!!
Is there such thing as a love zig-zag, by the way? Love triangle, yes, but...

AAAAAAAAAAAArgh!
I seriously want to kill people.
Not you guys. But people in general.
This is terrible. I am filled with so much rage right now. I am keenly aware of my angst filled persona at the moment, and I know I should do something about it, but I honestly cannot help myself. There's this guy who works here and his life is a complete mess. I'm usually his willing ear when we go outside for our smoke breaks. But not anymore, so now he's all lonely and has nobody to talk to. He's getting a divorce and I've nicknamed him Captain Kvetch because all he does is complain about this and that. So earlier today he's on his 10th smoke break in 2 hours and he stomps by my desk as he always does like a herd of bison and he says "So how ya doing today?" and I swear to god. I wanted to reach over my desk, throttle him mercilessly, then steal his cigarettes before he had a chance to set his foot out the door.
I thought it was supposed to be easier by the 4th day?
Ugh. This is the worst day yet.

Aw, WHIRLS!!! My poor Whirlygirl.
I need to have a button I can press that would give you hugs every time I read one of your stressful moments. :-(
So, as long as we're on a down note here, here's a story which will hopefully make everyone feel better by comparison:
You remember my friend who got in an accident after Coachella? Broke three ribs, lacerated his skull and had to have cosmetic surgery on his eye? Right, him. I just chatted with him today, and after the horrific ordeal of being hospitalized, he gets to deal with this:
1. He's still in constant pain, and everyone is tired of hearing it.
2. In total, he owes the hospital $35,000, the ambulance $7,000, and his insurance is only going to pay 80% of it, leaving him with an $8,400 bill.
3. While he has been hospitalized, bed-ridden/house-bound, his insurance company sent notice that his car has been incurring a $70 per day fee in a tow-yard. The notice was sent to his friend that was driving; he didn't find out about it until today.
4. Another piece of news that he found out happened while he was incapacitated was that a lien was placed on his house because his home insurance company didn't pay the repairmen who fixed his house when it was flooding. It's most likely going to cost him a few thousand dollars to clear up.
5. And lastly, he also found out today that the girl he had been dating for four weeks, who was in the car with him the night of the accident, hooked up with one of his friends... on the night of the accident.
Yes, as he sat there in the hospital, unconscious, unknowingly entering into a chain of events which would set him back for months, if not more than a year financially, the girl who he had been exclusively seeing went home with the other passenger in the car... and fucked his brains out.
Happy Tuesday everyone!

Not many people have... except for my husband. He deserves a medal.
Only a few more days of nicotine withdrawal hell and trying to figure out what to do with my hands/mouth/time and I'll be back to my normal self. If you want to call it normal, hahahaha.

Hmm. Strange things afoot in Chemical website land. Checked the Japanese site - http://translate.goo...LS_enUS315US315 (look at the pics of Tom and Ed. Why so serious?? Jovial pictures of them are so much nicer and seem easy going!) Anyway there's this area called Special and when you click it it says Coming Soon. So who knows.
But as for this place my guess is official website maintenance. If the site is going to get a major overhaul, it's likely not going to be until the new album is within site on the horizon. At least going by how it's been done in the past.
In other news, I had both of my license plates stolen off my car today. Front and back. While I was at Disneyland, on the last day my annual passes were good. It was so weird... and apparently a first at the Timon parking lot in Disneyland. Spent about a half hour with a really nice gentleman from Disney security and another 20 minutes or so filing a police report with the Anaheim po po who came out to the scene. I'm annoyed of course because this little incident will require me to take time off work and deal with the DMV which is a dreadful annoyance unto itself. And I'm annoyed that my little custom license plate frame that stash had made for me that said No Path To Follow was taken as well (also on record with the po po, hehehe) But overall I'm not upset. I'm just glad it was only my plates that were stolen and not my car. Then I would have been sad and crying in the parking lot with my son and Disneyland would have become the Unhappiest Place On Earth.
