do you realize that everyone you know someday will die?
-spring break starts next week. to kick it off, jeremiah and i are going to dallas this weekend to party it up with his best friend who goes to school down there. icantfuckingwait.
-which means when i get back it’s time to work my ass off. last year during spring break, the restaurant i work at broke the sales record for the restaurant group that owns us. we did something like $175,000 in a week. that means, lots of money in my pocket. bring it on.
-sunday while i was at work jeremiah was at home by his lonesome. we live on the 12th story of a 24 story high rise. he was in the living room when he heard a loud thud and felt the building shake a little bit. didn’t really think much of it. not too much longer after that he went out on our balcony and when he looked down, some guy was on the pool deck (which is on the 4th floor) splayed out with his head busted open like watermelon. he had jumped off of his balcony and killed himself. he lived on our floor. that FREAKS me out. jeremiah is a lot more freaked out than me since he actually saw the guy. that and he said they had him laid out there for two hours without being covered while they investigated what happened. there wasn’t much left when i got home that afternoon. they had hauled him off already. thank goodness. i don’t know if i could’ve handled it. the only thing left was some workers from the dept. of environmental quality to clean up the mess. surprisingly i can see no stains. whatever they had to clean it up worked good. it’s just so sad though. how could life get so bad that you had to end your life. and in such a horrific way. it just breaks my heart to know that people hurt that badly.
-in other news, i’m supposed to be giving a speech over david lachapelle on thursday and i haven’t even started it yet. there goes my procrastination again. i think i thrive on pressure. i’ll write it and practice it all today since i work all day tomorrow. wish me luck.
