james and i went to Food Not Bombs on saturday. we WErE eAtinG DelicIOus vegan tacos and sitting on a bench. a homeless man came and sat down next to me. he was all drunk and stuff. he started talking about all sorts of messed up stuff. he asked me what my name was and called me "kelly" instead of cali.
"you dress all radical and punk, but are your actions radical? are you really as radical as you look?"
"you know that the only reason punks dye their hair green is because pagan warlocks did it first. yea, this guy a long long time ago had green hair. he used to cut the legs off of cows and sew goats legs on. he loved the gore. and the animals would survive." (yea right)
"you know why i get high? because i can't stand the way i feel. i'd rip myself up." classic.
"i'm sick of bands. i've been in so many bands i don't ever want to be in a band again."
he then proceeded to produce a joint. he intended on getting high in the middle of downtown des moines with at least 10 people near by. wow.
mood: i hate school
music: minor threat - stepping stone
when we brought home Maiden, our new kitten, he and Boo did not get along. Boo hid in the closet and under the couch for almost 3 days, hissed at everyone, and hardly ate anything. i was starting to worry. but yesterday Boo came out and they started playing together. yay!! its so cute cuz Boo is huge and Maiden is tiny.
i was thinking about my friends in cottage grove and jefferson and wondering what they would think of me if they knew what i was like and what i was doing now. would they be impressed? disgusted? would they even care? hmmm..... i wonder what i would think of them if i knew what they were like now. hmmmm.....
i'll bet that Stacie is so much more mature than I am. she's all grown up in a sense with a kid and she's getting married. her life is so much different than mine.
Abby is a preppy girl still. She and her friends are all obsessed with being skinny and fashionable. They all want a boyfriend, perfect hair and perfect nails and perfect bodies and perfect faces, etc. etc. They are never satisfied with themselves and never think they're good enough. Yet they're all really judgmental of people (like me) who are skanky or punk or gothic or dress in black or don't wash they're hair or whatever.
Heather lives in Cedar Rapids and i'll bet she parties all the time. I wonder if she ever got a car or her driver's license. Hmm....
I saw Jack this summer and he practically ignored me. Not what I expected. He's still with his same controlling girlfriend. He's still a punk too, but i wonder about him sometimes.
Craig is flamboyantly gay and works at Quiznos. From what I hear he's a huge drama nerd. Star of all the school plays and stuff like that.
I could go on but i won't.
mood: hyper
music: dead kennedys - california uber alles
im really excited about this potential trip to DC. i've wanted to get involved in protests for quite some time but have lacked the opportunities and means to do so. this comes at a perfect time since the bush admin. is using new orleans as an excuse to drill in ANWR. see, they are manufacturing an oil crisis because a few oil rigs were destroyed by Katrina. and since were "short on oil" now.... LETS DESTROY THE TUNDRA!!
speaking of protests there is one coming up later this month at nolan plaza in des miones. its an antiwar/antibush protest.
i really need to start buying organic food.
mood: anxious
music: nausea
i just checked my email and james and i were just invited to attend a FREE bus trip to washington DC to rally against drilling in ANWAR!!!!!!! i am so excited. time to go to spanish.
mood: pumped
music: dead kennedys - government flu
james and i were driving to work in grimes. we were on 141 and this nazi skin head came up behind us doing like 80. he was less than a foot off of my bumper when he swerved around to the side of us. he slammed on his breaks so he was right beside us hanging out is window making faces and the such. i was totally confused as to what he was trying to communicate, so i just shrugged and looked at him all funny and confused like. he sped up and switched lanes so he was directly in front of me, maybe a foot off of my front bumper. he slammed on his breaks and i did the same -- barely in time. i almost smashed into his car. instead i think i just had a minor heart attack from freaking out. i think he must have read all of my liberal punk rock bumper stickers.
conclusion: nazi skin heads are not cool
mood: chilly
music: oi polloi
