Wish I had something interesting to post. Today, I met with a new client and it was so funny. It is this car dealership way way out in the country with like 100 stray cats hangin out on the porch. They do a lot of auctions and races and stuff. They had this whole redneck thing going on and the stuff all says "last rebel racing" you can probably imagine the rest, but they are doing some huge race and I did all their shirts and hats and race car graphics I feel so out of place there but oh well, money is money.

Merry Christmas

The trip across Arizona is just one oasis after another.  You can just throw anything out and it will grow there, I like Arizona.  ~Will Rogers

Desert rains are usually so definitely demarked that the story of the man who washed his hands in the edge of an Arizona thunder shower without wetting his cuffs seems almost credible.  ~Administration in the State of Arizona, U.S. public relief program, 1935-1943

Welcome to Arizona, where summer spends the winter - and hell spends the summer.  ~Popular saying, modified from a booster slogan in the 1930s

     The concept of there being nothing else left here for me keeps becomming more and more clear.  It seems like every second of every day, reinforces what I know I want and need.  That is that I NEED to get farther away from here than is convenient right now.  The second I came home, I was totally and completly ready to turn around and leave.  So many things people think are important are so insignifigant.

so i started my training today. i am gettin ready to go out tonight. However, I had a horrible experience on Thursday night. We all got together at Chris's house and Rush was there. I took a pennicillan on accident, me and Rush both took one bc we thought it wsa something else and we were already both really drunk. Me, Ben, Rascal and Rush were all runnin around gettin REAL stupid, Ben was runnin around butt naked when I walked outside! He was so funny. I was pourin everyone shots and I made this one, and it looked like piss and Rascal said "erica with her piss shot over there.." He said it right as I was taking it and for some reason, i thought it was a good idea when I ran out of the ingreds. for chocolate cake shots, to just mix different types of hard alcohol. Well, it ended up lookin like piss, and since that was pointed out to me in a humerous way right as I was drinkin it, most of it was sprayed all over the room rather than down the hatch.
Things got ugly. I couldnt breath, Rush took me to his house to figure out if the pill was what we thought it was. I didnt get into his door, even though he was carrying me until after I fell flat on the sidewalk a few times. Bless Rush, after everything we have been through I am so greatful for him that night. He found out the pill was antibiotic. I am deathly, DEATHLY allergic to most antibiotics. He went to myhouse for me and got to my car which I left behind bein too fucked up to drive. He got my epi-pin for me and I gave myself a epinephrine shot in the ass cheek. Immediate relief, kinda...eh. He took me home and got me to the door safely, where I passed out after a hard night of drinking, dancing, schmoozing, BARFING, and allergic reactions. I told Rush something was wrong bc I had NEVER barfed from taking a pill and drinking. Not fun. I am so glad I am ok, if I was by myself I dont know what I woulda done. So, Booze-it-or-Loose-it week is giving me some problems, I will stay close to home to get drunk.
