*Emily the ripoff*

It is going to be hot out today. I think I will stay at my parent’s place tonight, and probably tomorrow. They have AC and it would be nice to be in a big house. My apartment seems pretty tiny at times. About a year or so ago I bought this 1950’s table from one of my Mom’s friends. The lady was insisting we take it. My mom thought we had to give her money for it which I thought was kind of dumb. It would be different if she had asked for something. And the surface is good but the legs were a bit rusted. It has been in my parents garage so I don’t know if they have attempted to fix that or not. I want the chairs to look original so my Mom said she found a place where they can put different material on them. I just have to choose it. My dream would to move into a 1950’s style house. I would want a newer oven with a vintage look though.

On Wednesday I was going to buy a SAD lamp for light therapy during the winter. I had told the guy I was interested. After that I read they can possibly contribute to macular degeneration. I think I would rather be kind of down, and still have my vision. I was still going to buy the lamp Wednesday. Karl and I were going to head over. I had the guys address and phone number. Then I try to call and text and just get a message indicating the customer is not available or that I have to dial an area code. That really frustrated me. If there was an area code to dial the guy should have indicated that to me. So I decided right then I wasn’t going to buy the lamp. I did send him an email to indicate why I wasn’t buy it and to thank him for offering it to me for a good price.

After that I wanted to go to Value Village. They had a super savers sale going on. I was showing him how I can do pendulum divination. I think he was very skeptical at first and somewhat believed me by the end. We played our fave game which is find the creepiest or funniest item. The one of the day kind of looked like a large dreamcatcher (without the intricate web) made out of macrame. It had various items glued on it that included a peacock feather. And there was a little papoose in the middle in a real fur blanket. There was one guy browsing who couldn’t stop coughing. I am a germaphobe. So I would move anytime he was somewhat close.

At one point an announcement came on that there was a lost little girl looking for her Mom. The kids name was Tiger. Why would someone name their kid Tiger? so that made me laugh.

Then I found these voodoo dolls. So I was exaqminining them trying to figure out if they were the real deal. They were spooky but a bit sparkly. There was a tag on them with instructions. And it said something about calling the voodooman but there was no phone number. Karl stuck a white pin in which means good thoughts. And I swear for whatever reason i lost control of my hand just then and the end of the doll which was straw, went into my mouth. It was gross. I said how I thought about buying them just so no-one else would be doing evil with them. But I didn’t want those dolls in my place.

There was a really creepy crudely made toy box in the store. It had the word Toy on the front that looked as though it was painted on by someone who was drunk. And the butterflies painted on looked the same way. One of the rusted hinges inside the box was broken. I said whoever the parent was probably made their child go in that box for timeouts. I ended up putting the voodoo dolls in there and closed the lid.

I found an Emily Strange t-shirt. So bought that and had a 30 % discount because of my supersavers card. After I was looking online and found this. laughingsquid.com/was-emily-the-strange-based-on-rosamond-from-nate-the-great/ And all that time I thought it was an original character.

After we went for pitas because I had a coupon. We had the Philly steak pitas. They were so goo. It came with drinks, was yummy, filling and only $12 for both of us.

Oh I almost forgot I saw Dimitri’s girlfriend on Tuesday. For work I was at this women’s shelter she works at. She was just in the same room as me for a second. So I didn’t get a good look. I am pretty sure it was her. "craaaaaazy" went through my mind when I saw her.

Then at Value Village I saw bodybuilder guy. I have had no contact with him since his last odd message to me. I didn’t even recognize him till I had almost walked by him. We were both looking at one another as I walked by him. Then I kept on sneeking peeks cause it was so odd to see him. Karl didn’t notice him looking at me. And I didn’t say anything because karl gets way too jealous. One time we were at a club and I said a gay guy was hot. And Karl was insecure just about that. We walked around more and bodybuiilder guy was at the till. When we left I caught a glimpse that he was just hanging out in the parking lot doing something to his motorcycle. I thought maybe he had waiting to see when I walked out of the store. I made sure he didn’t see me though And I didn’t even say hi when I did recognize him.

I found this movie at dollarama. So $2 for it brand new. It is misleading though. On the side in big letter it has Quentin Tarentino and a pic of him. Which lead me to believe it was one of his obscure films. And he isn’t the director. It still looks like a very cool movie though. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switchblade_Sisters

This entry just keeps getting longer. I just remembered a dream I had on Wednesday. In real life I was going to cash a bunch of checks yesterday. In the dream I was helping out this girl who was involved with the street lifestyle. She came over and didn’t want to leave. In the dream my living room was about three times bigger than it actually is. I had a vintage couch at one end of the room. On the other side was my bed.I think it must have been a bachelor suite. Because I remember thinking how I wanted to sleep in my bed but she was already laying on it. I wanted her to go. And wondered how long she would be there for. I had my checks in an evelope holder I have on the wall. And some money was in there. At one point I stood up to get something. She leapt up came towards me and everything went dark. She stole the money and somehow cashed the checks and took the other money. And she managed to get more money from my account. I kept waiting to wake up to confirm it was only a dream.
