Saturday was my last day at Lids and now I'm weird purgatory status at Barnes & Noble because I don't know if I'm in music or on the book floor or what the hell is going on. I might end up being transferred to the Chesterfield store when it opens up in a few months though and if I do that I'm for sure in the music department there. Who knows. I got a phone call today from this local poster company that designs, durh, posters and they wanted to talk to me because of my Multimedia BFA and my freelance design work I've been doing on and off the past few years. Maybe that will pan out into something but I'd so laugh my ass off if I finally got a steady corporate type Multimedia related job after how many years of running around searching for one and working only freelance.
Anyway! The Cute Michi Moment is staying because people seem to like it and I get a perverse joy out of bothering my super cute and shy girlfriend. A few months ago she got this award from this like International Student Exchange program which she was involved with because she's studied overseas in Japan and China because her dad is from Tokyo and her mom is from Beijing. How they met is super cool and they're just hilarious. Her dad works for American Express and he became fluent in English, Chinese, and French while attending college so when they hired him he got sent all over the place. He got placed in Beijing and met her mother, they hooked up and got married before he got sent back to Tokyo. I guess in Japan and China they still have the mentality of not getting along because of all the shit that went down between the countries way back when so when her dad got offered a promotion in the United States they were eager to come here.
Her dad cracks me up because the first time I talked to him he explained all this and said that they love the United States because the people here can't tell if he's Japanese, Chinese, Korean, or even from Laos. He's just Asian and that's how he likes it. lol. They're really cool people. He also hooked Michi up with an internship that led to a job with American Express when she graduated college. She still does some on and off work for her old boss who is really hilarious and calls all the time to ask for her assistance or to just like... beg her to come back and work for him. lol. Poor Mike. He's cool though.
She's probably going to be super like... shy outraged cute about me writing so much about her but oh well. But dude! Off track. She got this award from this International Exchange thing and they posted a picture of her holding the paper certificate thing on their website and she freaked out and demanded they take it down. I managed to save it before they removed it though and it's currently my desktop picture. Want to see? I'll share!

She's the one on the right who is secretly wearing a Hello Kitty bag around her shoulder and holding a piece of paper and smiling all sort of cute but stiffly. And to relate to this pix I'll do the Cute Michi Moment!
CUTE MICHI MOMENT #4: While having this picture taken, Michi told me she was thinking, "Dear god let this be over soon. Is that door over there locked or can I escape through it?"
Upon finding out about the Hello Kitty bag she wore I told her she should have like... whapped someone with it then ran out the door to make her grand escape. She didn't do that though. Ah well. Okay. I'm done now. She'll probably be really upset with me tonight for writing about her but what am I supposed to do? I'm evil this way. She knew that on first dating me!
I'm currently trying to finish Laws of Attraction Part 26 and it's going super slowly. Yahoo has permanently killed my dreiser3 account so my new ID is dreiser7. I just randomly picked that number just like I randomly picked the number three way back when. I'm sort of annoyed about this because I've had the dreiser3 account since I was sixteen. Yahoo really does suck so much ass at times. But because they killed that account I decided I should just redesign my website since I'm going in and changing my email links anyway. My new design is super simple still, I'll be using black and white photographs of just various women I like. Not stalking crap but women I admire or think are cool or just random choices.
Thus far I'm using Misty Mundae for my Index page and that will NOT change because she's my favorite porn star of all time and she fucking kicks ass. Margaret Cho is my About page, Tori Amos is my Updates page, Milla Jovovich is my Anime Fics page, Eliza Dushku is my Buffy Fics page, Leisha Hailey is my L Word Fics page, and Alicia Minshew is my Misc Fics page. I have other random women chosen like Dina Meyer, Joan Crawford, Sigourney Weaver, Cyndi Lauper, Janine Lindemulder, Hudson Leick, Eden Riegel, Michelle Rodriguez and so on… if you have any suggestions of women you know I like in some capacity just let me know. Or if you just have suggestions period, let me know. I think I might put in random pictures too just for the hell of it. Who knows. I'm still working on the new website design, you know?
I might use a pix of Janet Reno or something. What? Somebody has to like Janet!
Since yesterday was Halloween I went to a late showing of Rocky Horror Picture Show with Michi and my friends which was totally fun and she had a non-shy good time. Non-shy meaning she actually said the lines with us and helped me mummify Pip in toilet paper. She's okay during stuff like that because she knew no one was paying attention to her so it was okay to act up. But today at work I'm sorting through our Soundtracks section which is still fucked the hell up and I found the soundtrack for the Rocky Horror sequel called Shock Treatment which I've seen twice on TV and it's SO fucking bad. And you would think that Rocky Horror is so weird and out there how could the sequel be crappy, right? But it's so totally crappy, trust me on this. I might buy the soundtrack just to have it. For those perversely curious here's the link to it on the Internet Movie Database...
