    This weekend was...interesting. I'm still kind of in shock from it. Friday was benign enough, I went on a very akward date (the only kind I know) and basically thwarted a make-out attempt with my famous dexterity/icy frigidness. Then I went home and me and flora finished a bottle of crown royal and ate pb cups and watched the breakfast club. Then danced around the hosue covered in blankets for warmth and sang along to musicals. Clearly a good night. Then saturday. Weeell basically I heard a very distressing rumor about me. Which made me really pissed. Then I went to a halloween party at my friend Joe's, where the person who had supposedly started the rumor happened to be there with his girlfriend. As anyone who's ever seen me upset around liquor may have guessed, I hit the bottle HARD. Think back to my party at the start of senior year, Valentines day last year, or the party where I told Jon I hated him 3 times. Yeah that bad. I was T-Rashed. So then I start to be really passive aggressive, like sticking my elbow out as he walks by, and slamming my drink down in front of him. Until finally I am drunk enough to just call him a liar to his face. So then we actually ended up having this really amazing talk. During which I break down into tears. And I HATE crying in front of people I know. Like, it was really good, he actually said some stuff that really made me think, and I finally have closure which I don't think I have ever gotten from anybody. But I'm still just sort of dumbfounded. And my ego is bruised. Oh my precious ego. I need to find some new stories. Rehashing old ones is getting dull.

    Oh Canada!
    I'm on my way (well eventually) to Montreal. Relena and Lyndon had their charity event thingamagig last night so they got absolutely snockered and Lyndon is up now grumbling about his head. I feel like mean mommy. I had to be like "Now guys, breakfast is ready and it's time to get up." So eventually they will coordinate themselves and we will get on the road to fabulous Montreal. Party tonight with all the old gang at Joe's. I want to bring Lyndon and Relena because having them party with a bunch of university students would be hilarious. I mean, when I was 14 they took me party-hopping on New Year's eve so this is the least I can do. Hehe (malicious smile). I'm so excited for guests next weekend. It will be so fabulous to play host in my new digs. Maybe I should open an inn when I get older. Better than going to grad school anyway...I hope everyone had a lovely summer and as soon as I actually get a phoneline set up there I will post my number. I'll miss you guys but so good to go back to school. My summer was overall good but I wish I had earned more money and being in JP removed me from the day to day hijinks. Who knows what I'll be doing next year. Well I better go harass my sister to get a move on.
    Goodbye lovies!

    Does anyone know how one sets up a phone line when one moves into a new space? And how does one hook up DSL? Do you need local phone or just a phone jack? Desperate mover seeks knowledge.

    My parents are dicks. There's not a whole lot to go into about it, they're just asses. Luckily, my sister and Lyndon are the exact opposite.
    Recent psycho-mum quote to my sister: "Don't let Robin take up too much of your time, I've known her much longer than you have." Ouch mommy, ouch. Apprently I am the Daughter from Hell. Who is going to hell, according to them. But that actually dosn't bother me, because I don't believe in hell. So they say "I fear for your soul" and I think "Better keep a nightlight on then." I just get really upset about them sometimes, and upsettingly jealous at people with parents who actually make an effort.
    In other news, I ate probably 1/3 of the pinapple upside down cake I baked today. I also blame this on my mother.
    I am going to albuquerque in a week. It will be the shit. I am so looking forward to it.
    If I were going to have a personal, this is what it would look like:

    SWF seeks Quebec resident for marriage, cheap tuition, and long walks up Mont Royale. Studying housewifery. Reply to bakemeapie@mailorderbride.com

    Ah, just what every girl dreams of.
    Night lovies,

    people are the worst
    i thought that after 16 the whole pretending someone isn't in the room became unacceptable. apperently not. so, yes, i did claim i had plans, a fairly lame excuse. but i let him know this a few days ago. i didn't say yes i could come and then cancel. i said i wasn't sure i may be busy and that i would call. and i did! what the hell? so then i run into him in front of the pub and he completely ignores me. like avoids my eyecontact ignoring. and it's not like i showed up at an early hour to show i clearly had no plans. i did go out with friends! i didn't get back till one. friends whom i had all of three months to see as much of possible. whom i have sadly not seen as much as i would like because of really different work schedules. and he really asked a lot of my time. i'm here for another month, i'm not going to waste it with someone whom i'm not that interested in. and who the hell ignores someone? argh this pisses me off. more for the fact that it means that he's pissed off, and i hate having people mad at me. which is really the reason i wasn't as blunt as i should have been about my non-interest. because then he wouldn't like me. agh so now this whole thing is my fault. but it's still rediculously rude to ignore someone. rediculously.
    night lovies,
    i give up,

    tomorrow i am going to nyc. although i narrowly avoided disaster because rachel's uncle said i couldn't stay at the apartment thurs night because he is being weird. apparently my sleeping on the couch is an inconvenience. recap phils subletting his apt, he just stays there one week a month. so actually it's basically phils apartment. and yet i am vetod. luckily he is gone fri so i will be able to stay their then once rachel comes up as well. thank god for max. i havn't talked to him since '03 and yet when i called him he said i could stay with him thurs night. yey max! i am not homeless on the mean streets of new york! hopefully i will do all sorts of crazy new york things like shop in soho, see the met museum of art, and eat bagels. mmm bagels. i wanted to watch sex and the city for ideas, but i forgot to. oh well. any last minute suggestions? see you all when i get back.
    night lovies,

    Worst Night Ever
    so tonight was officially my worst night ever, at least of the summer. I had a good time alright during the day, me leah, phil, and court got sandwiches at paris gourmet and went on a car adventure to great brook farm in carlisle, aka middle of nowehere mass. but it was really pretty in that bucolic way (remember i hate trees) and the ice cream was good and like crack to me (i have a horrible ice cream addiction since starting work at picco). BUT then the terrible no good very bad night ebgan. basically i hate the kitchen at work. despite adorable brazilian boy and carrie being cool, they were very backed up because we got slammed. oh yeah, and i worked on the patio, which is the WORST in 100 degree weather. the server station is at the end of the restaurant, so running food etc. is terrible and unnecessarily time consuming. but the kitchen was backed up, which made this one table's pizza take 40 minutes, which made them super pissed. at me. because clearly i make their pizza myself. I probaby could make their pizza, because i bake a pie like nobody's business and pizza isn't that difficult, but i'm a fucking waitress so STOP BLAMING ME! so then they wanted their bill, but already i had a table that was bitching about me about not having menues, because THEY DIDNT WAIT TO BE SEATED SO FUCK THEM so it took a while. so i was like, look, im trying to get my manager to comp your pizza because you shouldn't have to wait 40 minutes but that means the check will take a little longer. so then by the time i did run the check they left leaving 30$. except my manager didnt comp the pizza because she inevitably forgets what she is doing. so the check was $35. so i lost five dollars and tip. and then i felt so shitty that i fucked up everyone else's order. and my manager flipped out at me. except she also blamed me for the pizza, because i should have checked with the kitchen why it wasnt their. except she put the order in. AND i had 9 tables, so i was doing my best. christ. at the end of the night i made under 20% and fucked up tipping the bar out, because i can't add. so i lost another 5 dollars and didn't even distribute evenly. ahhhh.
    i also was super classy, putting wine from work ina to go cup and wlaking with it and my salad to the train station. yup, i drink savignon blanc from a to go coffee cup with a lid on the bus. so what.
    sam gave me shit when i walked by the pub and stopped in to say hi to my sister and lyndon. because APPARENTLY everyone thinks i am a huge snobby bitch because i don't start conversations with them every time i see them. i ahve gotten so much shit lately for ebing quiet, it really pisses me off. i am freaking shy. have you never met a shy person before?? it's not a novel concept people, deal with it. i don't go over and talk to sam because he is talking to other people and i assume he is not very interested in talking to me as i barely know him and i don't want to interrupt. excuse me for being polite. but basically this same thing has happend before. i assume people don't want to talk to me, they assume i'm a bitch. my sister made it pretty clear she didn't want me sticking around, which sam didn't seem to get, and thought i was being even more snobby not staying. so i went home and cried for a half an hour in the dark and humidity that is my house. which isn't really my house. i don't even have my own home, i miss 505 and feeling a sense of loyalty. i can't wait to move into my apartment in montreal, it will be mine, i'll be able to decorate it and make it my own and i won't have to move out till graduation lease willing. boston is done.
    luckily simone called me tonight and we bitched about our prospective jobs and i can't wait to go up to montreal on tues with her and see my roomate flora. i miss flora! i miss our taking naps together, and penut butter and toast.
    have reached new low and am drinking alone in my house until my sister comes home, when hopefully i will drink with her. okay am not alcoholic (no judgement) as am only have one (or two) beers and that is totally acceptible. not like i'm taking jello shots alone. okay jello shots are really gross, ps. but yeah, totally acceptible and i had aTERRIBLE day. did i mention i dropped a pizza and broke a glass? yup. that bad.
    the other day i was followed home from the subway late at night. the guy asked me where i lived. i am not taking the subway at night alone again.
    i am going to gop flop on the couch.
    night lovies,
    never work in a restaurant.

    Dear LiveJournal
    I am so terribly bored that I am updating. I have emailed everyone I can think of emailing, expcept my parents (naturally) and must thus resort to updating. In the past many weeks I have done few things of note. I did go to a party thrown by someone at work, and got to play asshole with kitchen/servers. Then I had a horribly pretnetious conversation with a cook and a hostess about writing because apparetnly Picco is the place where english-majors go. Actually she wasn't pretentious at all, just the cook, who I think is kind of an ass to begin with, so whatever. But trying to talk about ee cummings after a bottle of wine is not my forte. Or at least not talking about him well. I went to scoopfest which involved an obscene amount of ice cream. I ate so much ice cream, in fact, that I havn't realy wanted it that much lately. It has caused me to consider giving up dairy, because I have a mysterious gainage in weight which my be explained by the fact that I work at a place that sells pizza and ice cream. Or perhaps I am pregnant with God's baby. Either one. So summer goals now involve stop being a fat ass. Actually, that is usually my goal throughout the year, it's just that sometimes I forget. I can't figure out how to work the TV because I break it on a semi-daily basis but now my sister's not home and I can't have her fix it. It's hot as death (if death wre around 80 degrees and humid) in my house. I sometimes look at the cats, semi-passed out on the floor, and think that I have killed them. I think the next item on my agenda is to get stoned. I may update after that who knows. I won't be able to watch weirdly bad TV to amuse myself, because I fail at technology. I would like to go up to montreal/and/or burlington soon, but this week I have one day off, Thursday. I think I will blame one of my managers ( I have 3, aka way to many) Nikko, because I don't like him anyway.
    Night lovies,

    5:47 pm
    Work has been sucking recently. Yesterday one table complained to my manager about me. Actually the only thing that went wrong was she had to wiat 2 min for her spoon. Big fucking deal. I was super nice and she just gave me a dirty look everytime I brought a dish to her table. Bitch. Then this other table left me a 4 dollar tip on a 56 dollar bill. Again, they only had to wait 5 min for their pepsis because I had to bus other tables. People just don't realize that I am not their personal slave. This table also complained that their check was late being picked up, when after I did pick it up they sat in the restuarant for 30 min. 4 fucking dollars. Yeah my chef Rick was an ass today and yelled at me that I was washing the windows wrong. then he complained he didn't know why he was paying 4 people to open when all we did was talk. Um, excuse me, he pays us 1.30 for that half hour to open, so he can shut the hell up. In good news, I bought pants! I really needed pants, and so, now I have them. I think I will buy some more...
    I am so dead for my internship, my deadline is the first and I am super screwed. I think I will finish it in style of my sociology paper, aka 5am in the morning and total crap.
    Mmmmm I feel sick from the hot chocolate at work, but it's a good kind of sick. The weather is crap.
    Tonight is my night off but I have to write for my internship. I think I will have a beer to pretend that I am having a good night off. I love stella. Damn, now I miss montreal. I hear they are having better weather than us, those bastards. I miss cafe campus and dancing like a crazy person. I miss Cochon Mignon, the wine with the pigs on the label. I miss walking down St. Catherine. And of course I miss my 505ers.
    Awww I miss you guys!! I need to come up and visit after my internship so that I can recharge my Canadianness. Eh is in. I wish stupid Canadians had AIM. They should get it. PS have figured out how to use aim here without using it. I have beated the system! Yey!

    wow it feels really good to be in jp. since thursday night I don't think I've spent more than three hours here, as I crashed at various houses both nights. Martha is here, yey!! I miss my Canuckians. we went shopping and stared at the sailors. funny how eveything reminds me of a sex and the city episode. hopefully i will see more of matha and simone later tonight, but if not then i suppose tomorrow. hmmm oh dear i am very tired. i am also going on a mini-break from alcohol. my liver is still quite upset at me. thurs nigth i drank waaay to quickly on an almost-empty stomach. i should know better. i became the token annoying drunk girl which I HATE being and almost never am, so what the hell robin, what the hell. also, after 10:30 I do not remember a single thing until I started vomiting. i thought i had just gone to sleep, because i think i was in the same place as i was last time i remembered what was going on. but apperently we all walked out to a bar, got in, i met some girl named leslie, and bought pizza. do not remember a single thing of this. if i met leslie now i would not know who she was. i thought i had just fallen asleep. that really scares me, i dunno. i have no idea what i did or said that whole time. when i had my wisdom teethe out i refused to be put under because i didn't like the idea of losing an hour of my life. well i just lost four, and instead of being knocked out i was totally conscious. so yeah, way to go, no alcohol for a while thank you. gah am really dumb sometimes, i know how to drink, i just chose not to do it properly. i havn't seen my sister since wednesday morning, it's a little weird. i probably won't see her tonight or tomorrow either because i should be alseep before she gets home and up before she leaves. hmmm will have to wait till monday to talk to her and lyndon. i think it's time for some food...leftover picco's it is! question: what kind of pie should i make for a dinner party?

    Slowly going insane form the echo of voices in my head
    You know why talking to yourself isn't any fun? Because you always know what your going to say next. I am seriously going crazy from not being around people for two days, I think I am a person addict. But yes, I am home, and by home I mean JP. I have lost most peoples phone numbers except Rachel and Leah, so if you're not them, I don't have it, please enlighten me. I also don't have AIM here, and Lyndon dosn't want to me download it onto his computer because he is afraid of viruses. So I can't even pretend to have people. We're out of bleach and I don't know how I am going to clean my apron by 10:30 tomorrow morning. Yes, it is true, I have found a job other than prostitution via craigslist. Although waitressing does come pretty close. Although it's in the South End, so most of the customers are gay men, and I am totally at a loss there. If I cannot rely on my breasts to compensate for my lack of waitressing skills, I don't know what I am going to do. So yes, I am sitting here, very very bored, and avoiding my internship, like I do every night. I looked for cigerettes, but my sister was out of those too. I am contemplating drinking and/or smoking a bowl alone out of sheer desperation, but I have to get up early tomorrow morning so it probably won't happen. Because it would be the saddest thing in the world if I was burnt out for work, and my reason was I got stoned alone in my sister's living room. Who is home anyway? Let me know. I think I will go find a book to read, so my brain dosn't rot. Email me or something, it will make my humdrum day much better.
    Night lovies,
    Robin

    Welcome back, gratuitous self-indulgence
    So I havn't updated since the retraction of the night of drunken bitterness...which i edited by the way. Because I would rather not have people realise that I am THAT drunk and bitter. I think I will call it dritter.
    Yesterday I was reading want-ads on craigslist.com for the Boston area, and this one was looking for hostesses for a private club that were "sexy and sensual". It was two nights a week for 8 hours a night. And it paid 225 dollars an hour! Okay, any job that pays that much an hour and requires you to be sexy/sensual is CLEARLY a coverup for a whore house. You know "blow" is in THAT job description. But 225 dolalrs an hour...damn, its 46,800 dollars in one summer! Yes, I did the math...but do not worry, I'm not applying, I don't want to prove my mother right.
    In orther news, I don't know how many people in arlington know this, but I'm not living there this summer. I'm moving in with my sister in JP. Which, no offense, is going to be ten thousand times better then living with my mother. All of you who have met her I'm sure will agree. But I am still visiting, a lot. And everyone must visit me! And keep me posted on gatherings, because now I will be horribly out of the loop. Don't let me fall by the wayside! I'm home end of April which is really early from most other college students. So I can get a headstart on the job market...which actually makes a very bad pun with the previous topic...no no and no. And I am not working at Starbucks. NO STARBUCKS. That's right guys, that means no more free coffee. I think I am going to go make me some dinner.
    Bye lovies,

    a retraction
    note to self: stop being a fat-ass drunk. and stop updating.

    er....um...well....agh so embarassed about previous entry. i'm going to shut my computer in my closet from now on. i also need to stop this one woman pity party that i've been having for the past five days. it's lame and annoying. i should pity my friends for dealing with it. of course i am going to be a fat-ass drunk on my birthday, but i'm entitled to that. i will not however:
    1) cry whilst drunk, unless i am being tickled.
    2) tell any stories about why my life sucks right now. it's my birthday, so it can't suck.
    3) stick a pitchfork in or throw a shoe at the couple downstairs....this one's going to be tricky.


    so yes, sorry for being an obnoxious lj drunk last night,
    peace lovies.
    3:15 am
    damn, je suis sous
    hello,
    i am sous and i havnt updated since november. for all you anglos out there that mean i am drunk. yes sir, je suis sous. it is valentines day and thus sucky. has anyone ever liked their housemate and had him go out with their other ousemate? i dont think so, but it sucks. so now i am contemplating the past year and realising a lot of things.
    1)our society is a piece of crap, on what planet can you be a joke and your partner get a relationship when you both did the same thing. aka i hate capatilistic white culture. it should die
    2) it is a sad day when robin is so drunk that she is embarassing herself, because i should have more class, but i dont because again our society sucks some mjor balls. it all their fault damn it.
    3)i went out tonight and was taught to play pool by soiem giy from tunsia who didnt speak english. english is s useless, we should drop it. reall reallt need to have a good birthday. need to sober up before 8:30 class. fuck life and everyone.

    Homeward Bound
    So I'm back home, watching Conan O'Brien, eating fancy cheese and fruit, and measuring things in miles. Yey America! Quick note on last night...oh last night. As a last blast before entering the land of illegality, we decided to party. Me Simone Mischa (that crazy russian) and Joe did like 5 shots each in less then half an hour, then I had 3 mixed drinks, then 2 G and Ts at McGibbins. Man, was I drunk. I danced like a crazy fool, and publically sucked face. I hate those people that do that, I should be shot! I didn't get back to my room till 6:30am, when Flora woke up and started laughing at me for getting back so late/having class in 2 hours. Sociology=not fun. I was so hungover I was shaking, and I had had 2 hours of sleep, and I was dehydrated. My prof stared at me, and I'm pretty sure he knew what was up. Being a prof at McGill must make you pretty un-naive. Bus ride was long and fun, yey random bus friends! I wish I was home longer; I don't have time to relax at home and see friends/sister, so basically I'm never home. I'll probably see some of you around.
    Night A-town lovies,
    Robin
