Hay rain

[cornerofmadness]

Again, you would have no idea the whole east coast is endangered right now by how it looks around here. It's lovely (and my cousins in NC are okay, nothing too damaged so far). As for me I decided to head to Borders for probably my final time ever (sniffle). I was going down Rt 2 to Huntington and got stuck on a road where passing is almost impossible, right behind a farmer hauling hay. I'm pretty sure half of it ended up on my car and up my sinuses.

Granted I don't forsee me returning oftern to the Barboursville mall as the bubble tea place is gone and soon so will Borders. Macy's is the only other thing I'd want there outside of target. I shop Macy's with mom and all her star rewards.Still, I really need to find someplace other than Olive Garden to eat. Okay there is an applebe's but i'm not that crazy about their food. Ditto the olive garden. I tried the chinese place since it was packed. It was a buffet. I need to eat at a Chinese buffet once a year to remind myself that for the most part i hate them and I swear this entire REGION gets their food from a central supplier since it tastes exactly the same in Huntington as Gallipolis as Chillicothe as Columbus.

is it Christmas by the way? The mall was SO packed I had to park at Chiles's next door and walk. Anyhow, there was almost NOTHING left in borders. I was like wow, if this many people shopped regularly they'd never gone out of business. No games whatsoever outside of some dumb Twilight game and vampire diaries game that they must have bought in the hundreds for the tweens. Apparently no one wanted Dance in the Vampire Bund but I enjoyed that manga while researching the vampiric manga last year so I bought nearly the entire bound set plus 2 others for under 50$.

Went to Marshalls and found five really pretty shirts...until I tried them on. I must be built like a circus freak or something. Well three fit, one I kept, the other made me look like a whale and the last turned out to be a belly shirt. No one my size needs a belly shirt imo. I got to hear the most inane conversation in the dressing room between either two sisters or best friends calling each other 'sissie'

They were bemoaning Marshall's selection ad nauseum but were too cheap to go to the mall and it was HER birthday and she had to have something for that night. She said how fat she was about 100 times too in such a strident tone that I knew she had to be a stick figure.

B-day girl - It's my birthday why am I here? I could be doing body shots

Sissie - We should be doing body shots right now.

B-day girl - I need an outfit that shows enough body for body shots BUT I'm SOOOOO FAT

Sissie - oh no you're not

B-day girl - You haven't seen me naked in a while, you don't know.

Sissie - I could see you naked. It IS your birthday.

more moaning about weight and selection

B-day girl - I want a dress but I can't get a dress

Sissie - yeah, you want to do keg stands.

more moaning about weight

B-day girl - I want a dress but I want to do keg stands

I was so tempted at this point to join the conversation with 'you already sound so drunk and slutty, does it MATTER if your skirt falls over your skanky head?' Thankfully no kids were in the place.

So I catch up to them as they're whining to the dressing room woman about the bad selection and sure enough b-day girl can't weigh more than 120 and sissie is so thin you can see bone and they have the nerve to stop and browse the plus sizes on the way out. They need a fat girl to sit on them also they need to go eat a sandwich and get a realistic self image.






Roy knocking over my bills and my grading, notice how one ear is in 2 pieces?



Kanda, Mr All the Toys are MINE



Soul, you're in the same room as everyone else why are your pupils 100 times bigger? What are we afraid of now. I need to find a better time to give him the ritalin. it seems to knock him out If I could reliably catch him I'd give it at bed time for me

Poor freaked out Soul.

Geeze, Bday Girl, GET A REAL LIFE. You and Sissie, both.

Waaaaaah, book stores. *sniff*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Soul can't relax.

i know, right. Hell guys already think you're easy if you're doing keg stands, why not let your dress fall over your head? that's where it's gonna end up by the end of the night anyhow.

i know, hugs my books

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

And in nine months or so, you'll be clients whining about how you don't know who the father is....

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

pretty much

Oi over the two sisters. Man girls are so worried about their weight now a days. It's fine if you want be more healthier and want a new lifestyle, but it's ridiculous sometimes when very skinny people think they're too fat. It's okay to eat a hamburger or pizza once in a while, lol. You're awesome for telling them off like that.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

well i didn't tell them off. I just mentally did it since I didn't want to have to crush two idiots in a dressing room in WV.

but with as much as these girls wanted to go and drink healthy lifestyle isn't it

[bay115.livejournal.com]

Woops, sorry for misunderstanding. The part where you said about the kids not being in the place made me think you did, heh. That's probably for the best, then.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ah well I'm rarely clear if my students are to be believed

[marynachaotica.livejournal.com]

I now live in Tioga County, NY (Spencer) (at least for the time being) and they are now saying we'll be feeling the effects of the Hurricane. High winds, torrential rain and flooding, power outages for maybe two days or so....*sigh* Welcome to New York, Jana. Yeah...I shoulda stayed in Dayton, Ohio with Ishte and just said "nope not going any further."

BTW...the Catskills etc are pretty...but GODS are they fucking depressing!!!

Hey lookie at Soul's eyes! Wow is he relaaaaaxed, even if part of his brain is still trying to freak out. Good ol Ritalin...does it every time.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

really? I love the catskills. good luck with the hurricane

[marynachaotica.livejournal.com]

I think I made a colossal mistake.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ah

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

When our Borders stores went out of business, they were pretty ransacked. I did get some deals from their science area, which most people had neglected.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

well naturally, wouldn't want to learn anything

[sonjajade.livejournal.com]

I HATE skanks like that!!! Were they really loud too? Everytime I encounter those chicks they're really loud, like they want you to know what skanktastic thing they're doing later.

I think I might have waited too long to go to my Borders. Last time I went when they did some first round closings all their manga was only at 30% off, but now I don't know if ANYTHING will be left. Hmm. Might venture out that way today...

I don't speak cat but I speak dog, and jusdging by those expressions, Roy appears as if he's saying "Yeah I knocked the shit in the floor, whaddya gonna do about it?" And then he prolly walks off with his tail in the air as if it were a really long middle finger XD Kanda looks as if he's saying "I'm just getting them all in one spot, trying to be neat an organized... Yeah that's it, neat and organized." And poor Soul XD "Are walls meltin' for you too, man? Woooooowww...."

they are adorable, poor Roy's split ear, that's gotta be ouchies.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

oh naturally they were loud. I heard every word, got names of who thinks they're fat and who's worth impressing.

Yeah there was next to nothing of manga in mine. I DID buy what I really wanted at 30% off.

snort. That is DEFINITELY what Roy is saying. His ear is ouchie but better than the quarter sized hole in his neck last month. Okay i think ALL the cats are seeing invisible crap today (probably mice trying to get in)

Irene has been kind enough to give me overcast skies today (or just this morning... not sure how the rest of the day will end up) and I think it rained last night. Nice and cool this morning <3. Glad your NC cousins are okay.

D: We don't have Borders up here, but all my State-side friends shopped there for all their readings, sad you guys are losing your bookstore.

Ugh B-day girl and sissie *eyeroll*

Aw pretty kitties. Roy's poor ear XD;

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah it's cool and gray today which is okay by me

I'm very sad over borders. buying b ooks online is not the same as browsing them in the store.

thanks yeah Roy is always banged up (He's lived outside these apts since before they were built. He's adopted me but he doesn't like being inside

[havocmangawip.livejournal.com]

Rarrr... those girls sounds so DUMB!!!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Luckily we're closer to Marshall U at that mall. Maybe, if they're even bothering to educate themselves, it's there. I can see them totally sitting in my class wanting to be OT assistants (the new hot thing in the area)

[havocmangawip.livejournal.com]

OVER MY DEAD BODY WILL THEY EVER BE WORKING IN A GYM/FACILITY/REHAB THAT I WORK AT! NOOOOOO! FUCK NOOOOOOO!

AND they'd be the people with lowrider pants on. F'ng A. RARRRRRR!

(Even Havoc wouldn't want that in the rehab gym... cute maybe, dumb... oh yeah... even a great rack won't fix that.)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

they DID, they totally had them on.

just found out my OT's have been doing things wrong and well as much as my arm fucking hurts right now that wasn't a mystery

yes no one would want this much dumb

[havocmangawip.livejournal.com]

Ugh... I just read. I cannot believe that they didn't KNOW the protocols... srsly. I wish you could see MUCH better people. Sheesh... more harm than good there.

I want it to be Spring of 2014 NOW!!! (Well, Yesterday actually... )

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

the thing is there is no full on protocol for shoulders. It's more complicated than say knee or hip and they're using something that's too babying for someone my age.

hmm I'm not sure I want it to be that year, too close to 50
