it's a blog of mostly blogs but eh, you know

i awoke this morning to a slight discomfort on my back. i guess overnight a sun burn emerged from my skin and the sheets on my bed was irritating it. it made me not want to get out of bed. as a result, i was late to work but no one noticed(s) (ever).

i was kind of offended today when asked by a friend if she could borrow $50 for gas and she would repay me this friday. first off she left her husband and left him, in my opinion, for no real reason. i started thinking about what he did in the last week she was with him and remembered he joined the myspace community. she was upset because he would not give her his password and login. i mean, where does that line get drawn?! as husband and wife, do you HAVE to share everything--even down to passwords and logins?! please...! obviously there is a trust issue there and i am not too sure why it would turn into such a big deal. now, although, i don't think that this is the sole reason why she left him...i knew she would one day but didn't think it would take this to make her leave. regardless, my question has yet to be answered. i even thought about it for myself this morning as i was walking into work. would i share my password and login with my boyfriend...? with my husband?! why should i? would i eliminate all sense of security and 'rights of privacy' to my boyfriend? why? i know i will end up with someone who really doesn't give a two shits about passwords and email logins, etc. who cares. he will trust me and i will trust him.
i even had an ex roomie who 'had to' delete her myspace account because her boyfriend didn't approve. my other friend's boyfriend checks her myspace daily and i have heard her explain to everyone who all her 'friends' on her friends list was!!! get the fuck out of here.
(sigh) am i to expect to do the same to my other? i really hope not because shit, that would mean a red flag and one red flag is usually enough to make me leave and never, ever go back or pursue.

mary kate and ashley really know how to make good makeup. i purchased some new eye shadow (well, MK&A call it 'eye creme'--which really just means its a little cremer and gives your eyes more definition). i have it on now for looks and well, i like it. i had to buy a brush to apply because the texture looks like it may ruin my applicator brush. the last makeup i bought from the girls was liquid eyeliner and it was awesome! i prefer another liquid eyeliner brand but eh, they were good while they lasted...if you know what I mean.

i am in search of a blog written by someone out in the sea. keep your eyes open for me. lately i have been obsessed with mates of state's blog on parenting and their kids. i tune into another blog written by a stay-at-home-daddy.

i went to a dance party this past weekend. i had a lot of fun! i could not believe how many people showed up! it was at the Parish and it was sponsored by DJ Mel. He is my favorite local dj in Austin. I think the last song I danced away to was "groove is in the heart' mixed with some louis armstrong in the background. it was awesome. my friend wasn't feeling it so she sat and did the whole people watch. i am sure she saw me moving fast and all over the place. i didn't care. i had to dance and had to shake off all that stress i had built up inside.

i was complimented via email today and this is how the email kind of went:
co-worker: thanks melissa. you really know how to communicate so well to everyone and make everyone feel at ease about a stressful situation where it could potentially get everyone all rustled up.
my (only) boss: isn't she great?!
me: (no reponse)

i didn't respond bc i didn't know what the heck to say!?! what do you say? what would you have replied? my co-worker said something along those lines but not the exact...more or less. it was a nice compliment and i thought it was kind of funny my co-worker copied by boss on that email. and it's funny HE copied her and i on that response email. ha.

one hour til slipknot reveals their 'new masks'. i want to see it and see what kind of cool masks they will have now! i think it is a little ridiculous to keep up with the whole get up with the jumpsuits and masks but eh, whatever works for them. it just seems to me that the record company is doing this to have their members be interchangable. i wonder what the contract says for the guys in the band and have to be masked. how do they feel about it. is corey still part of slipknot? anyway, it happens tonight at 12:01am and i am trying to stay up for it. check it out on spinner. i hate spinner because they use slang like 'hookers' and 'gay' to describe music. it's stupid and they are gay.

i leave you with all things local and in austin. check it, yo!
