I tried, but I couldn't get it out of my head last night. I just woke up, it's like 5:40pm or close to it...I ended up working 11pm to 8:30am because one of the people didn't come into work...lovely...actually I didn't mind, because it's an hour and a half overtime for me. However, we got a really nasty storm this morning and lost power...but of course MSC never loses power, haha...that would be kind of freaky if they did and they had some really bad kids there though...

Anyway, due to seeing 311 recently, I've been listening to them a lot lately and I never realized how amazing the song "Beyond the Gray Sky" is. I mean, I liked it before and everything, but now I'm just in love with the song. Part of it has to do with the fact that it totally reminds me of Adam. And I'm really trying to find more closure within myself. I will most likely be reading my "He's Just Not That Into" book again because it has worn off and I need a reminder of that book fresh in my head so I will stop acting like a fucking pussy about this.

Other than that, life is fine...getting like five hours of overtime this week on my paycheck, that will be nice! Last day of work in the fin aid office is Friday, August 26th...then I'll only have one job, that will be weird.

Thursday night, I got really drunk. First, went and visited Mike Hackett's new place four houses down and sat on their porch, drank some beers...then went out with some AC peeps...we went to the Cafe because Gilbert was home and he really wanted to go...however, Andrea and I talked him into walking to Mandy's, in which we did. Then from Mandy's, I walked to my house, ha. It was an interesting night, but fun nonetheless.

I think I'm ready to be done with this entry now.


311 - Beyond the Gray Sky

It is a gift I know
A moment of bliss that we hold
A firecracker flash of light then on
To the next plane soul remain
Come along if you dare
It's gonna be that you're scared
Lovely life I thank you
For the reason to see the pain through

Light a candle for the dead
The wick is burning returning what we have
It's who we are
We'll reach you if you're beyond the furthest star

Don't give up the fight to stay alive and even if you have to
Find the reason of another's pain if they lose you
If not for your self then those around who care like I do
One day you'll see the clear blue

Beyond the Gray Sky
Light a candle...
The wick...
It's who we are...

One day you'll see the clear blue
Beyond the Gray Sky

I can't believe you didn't call
What made you want to end it all
Wasn't there something I should have tried
To help you see beyond the gray sky



Oh, and P.S. I saw that Michelle St. John called my phone last night...was that an accident??? I was surprised to see that! :)
