She works hard for the money...

10. One hour back at Domino's and I'm already hooked! I love the job, the people, the food, and the overall atmosphere. I went in last night to do the nightly inventory and Luke told me it takes him about 30 minutes. My first time doing it... 50minutes!!! I was proud of myself and I am excited to go in tomorrow and have my first shift running experience!

9. Gordon's birthday bash was a blast! A ton of cool people were there. My fave find of the night was John's buddy Danny. Super cool dude, looked like TMV, and kept the hookah under control (which is usually Johns job). No details... (you already know them!)... but it was a goo time with some fun people new and old!

8. Add, Jack and I met Kim's BF today. He's just too damn old. He seemed nice even though I didn't really talk to him or even attempt to act like I wanted to. I didn't do it on purpose, he just seemed too mature for me to chat it up with. I had fun singing and dancing with Add.

7. The tennis is coming along nicely. Add and I are going to play tomorrow night after work and hopefully we will be able to keep a nice volley going for more than 4 hits...

6. I watched Bourne Ultimatum tonight with Kendra and Julie. It was a killer movie! I want to see the first two now!!!! Mike and Christopher showed up later and we all hung out for a bit before parting ways.

5. The garage sale this weekend went nicely. I made 70 bones on Friday and 65 on Saturday. I was totally cool with making all that cash from a bunch of stuff I don't need or want anymore.

4. Girls Camping Trip kicks off Wednesday night when we get together to pack the car!! Thursday morning we are on the road and off to the beach for the day before we have to set up the tent! Woohoo for melanoma!

3. I am extremely tired. I have had a hookah hangover all day and my eyes and head hurt from my allergies. It feels like I've been crying for a week. My eyes just want to close and never open again!! AHHHH...

2. I bought a new bike today!! Who's ready for bike rides?!!

1. This post has far too many updates in the form of random rambling. Also, sorry for the missing sense of a timeline as I tend to jump from day to day and then back a week and then to the present again... I'm just not feeling the time thing. Time is lame.

If you'd just realize what I just realized...

WHAT???!!! It's been how long since I've updated WormSongs?! Well here I am! I guess we'll do this in topic paragraph/sentence form yeah?

Memorial Day Weekend: I had a ton of fun at my Aunt and Uncle's Place! We had pizza hut one night and the most delicious burgers the other nights. Austin got to fly his new Mackinaw kite and landed it on top of the high school so we had to drag it down and sure enough it was broken. Aussie and I also made a slip and slide with a tarp and the spray setting on the hose. Tater, the amazingly obese purebred chocolate lab, found it fun as well. We watched the cassopolis Memorial Day Parade where my aunt and uncle knew EVERYBODY... things like that happen when you live in a town just slightly bigger than Vernon. 

Back In Chicago: I got home from my long weekend and Cat met me outside my building with my keys. She went upstairs with me in case Megan was there... Let's face it, I had a week left and I definitely didn't want any confrontation now! Cat hung out for a few minutes and the trekked a block away to her new place. How sucky is that? I am moving in a week and now Cat lives a block away... BUMMER!!! My last week in Chicago was a blast. I got to sit for one of my occasional families and both girls were really sad to see me go. One of them gave me half of her friendship rock and the other was actually really good for me when I put her to bed. The family gave me a nice card and some goodbye money and then payed me extra well when I left that night.  I also made sure to hit up Clarke's this week ad managed to order everything on the menu that is in my rotation when I go there... I ate Clarke's for breakfast and lunch the next day!

Vaheys: The Vaheys took me out to dinner Thursday night and gifted me with cards and goodbye money and some killer pictures that Ellie drew for me. Friday sucked!!! David had a playdate for a bit so Ellie and I decided to take an extra-long walk (extra-long for kids at least) and so we walked over to the beach and snapped a bunch of pictures and collected some mighty cool shells. We even picked up some shells to give to David since he wasn't with us. I went to soccer practice with them that night because I had too much stuff to lug onto the train to my place so I waited there for my mom to pick me up.  When she got there I was bombarded with hugs from the kids and when I finally got into the truck to leave my mom was on her own figuring out how to get out of Hyde Park because I was busy staring at them out the window. I cried the whole way back to my place...

Friday Night: My mom and I got to my place only to find that the leasing office closed early so I wasn't able to get a parking pass.... FUCK!!!! They tow every night so we sure as hell weren't going to park there anyway. The only other indoor parking garage close to us told my mom the truck is too big so we had to settle for outdoor and hope the truck was still there in the morning, still had all of it's components, and that it didn't rain! Well... no sooner did I meet my mom at the parking lot to walk to dinner with her and it starts pouring! We got to dinner soaking wet and Cat and her friend Rob just laughed and offered us some guacamole. We had our dinner and then hurried back to my place to change clothes and fix hair and makeup before my goodbye shindig began. It was a sucky turnout I'd say. My most important friends were there I guess... Cat, Ash, and Shelli... but after awhile megan, ronnie, and danielle locked themselves in megans room and had their own party and Adam and Glenn never came, and Gian was working too late to come... it was fun but I really really would have liked to see Adam one more time. The party ended I went and jumped in my tiny bed with my mom. 

Goodbye Chicago/Hello Owosso: I woke up to my mom's loud snoring... she ended up moving to the floor and I swear it never got dark that night because I woke up at 4 am feeling all ice a refreshed and ready to go! WTF??!!! We packed everything up and loaded the truck and then we met Cat and Rob for one last brunch at Yolk. It was delicious and we had the best waiter ever and it was sad to leave Cat when we parted at the corner... Mom and I went upstairs to grab shades and purses and then headed off to Navy Pier to ride bikes. We went on a 3 hour long bike tour of the northern lakeshore area, which was mainly Lincoln park, and had a fun time (especially when mary fell off her bike and the one asian lady in the group came over to her with a road rash kit... of course the asians are fucking prepared for their bike trip...). After our bike trip we hustled into Build-a-Bear and I made a goodbye Chicago bear. Well, she's really more of a summer beach babe bear but whatever.  We took the water taxi back to the aquarium and walked into my apartment for the last time. I cleaned out Pig's cage, vacuumed the room, and we left Chicago. I was awake for awhile and then I must've fallen asleep since i woke up as we were going by Kalamazoo... I got home, enjoyed seeing Owosso, gave Princess a nice pet down, unloaded the truck, and was off to see the boys! I hung out with Gordon, John, and Josh and we hookahed a lot. End of story. The boys were drunk, we smoked 2 bowls in the barn, I had one drink so we could play kings, and then we had another bowl in the house. It was really awesome seeing the boys again so soon and I drove home and fell asleep pretty pumped!

Home Sweet Home: Since coming home, I have been with Addy every day (Addy is my Owosso Cat and Cat is my Chicago Addy) and we have done too many thing to even think about. I'm sure typing this section will take me quite some time... We hung out when I got home, we hung out thursday night at and after bowling when barb was doing hair at my place, we hung out Friday night of Curwood since I had Cha, Hannah, and Logan and the kids parade got cancelled. We ended up playing ping pong, foosball, and twister in Jeanette's basement. Later I gave the kids back to barb and picked my drunk birthday girl mom up from Jumbo's and took her home. Addy, Jeanette, and I went to see Kung Foo Panda, which was hilarious, and then once again I went home to bed... I spent Saturday with my mom and Doug at pancake breakfast and the craft area and watching the parade. I talked to add that day but she had to work so i didn't see her at all. I watched the bands at curwood, saw Jessica Justice and Nick Bruckman, and my night got super fun when I met up with Thom Kimble and we walked around Curwood to see all the "fun" people and to catch up on the past couple years! Jason and John called me and were bored so they met us in the parking lot at my car and we dropped Thom off at home and went to Teal's for a party. I had been home for a week and it was basically nonstop! The next week I spent by the pool with addy. We got killer tans and hardcore vacuumed the pool out so it was swimmable the next day! Mike Called me Monday night on his way home from training the lifeguards at Girl Scout Camp and told me all about the canoe trip that him and Lassiter would be taking that week. I was going to pick them up on Friday in Bay City but I got a call Thursday night (I was hardcore asleep at like 9pm...) and woke up Friday morning remembering a call and that maybe they were already home and something about hooters... or maybe i dreamt it?? I talked to mike and yes they were home and had went to Hooters on their way back. That was last week. 

This Week: I have been with Add every day. We have started taking 4-5 mile walks in the AM or PM and then I have been getting ready for a garage sale. Last night we walked to Emerson and attempted to pay Tennis. We both suck really bad but it was fun so we will keep practicing!

This Weekend: FUN FUN FUN this weekend I have my garage sale Friday and Saturday mornings, Frankenmuth Friday night, and Gordon's Birthday bash on Saturday night. I'm EXTREMELY bummed that I can't go to Cat's g=for the Camp Rock party on Friday night but i'd have to leave my sale early, and miss Zehnders, and then leave Cat's early because I have to be here to open up the sale Saturday morning. I'm bummed but there's not a whole lot I can do... Tonight, by the way, I am having a fire at my place complete with smores and hookah and then Add, Heather, and I are having a slumber party here because we are girls and that's what girls do!

SOOOOOOOOOOO That's been my life the past month and it will only get more exciting  this summer!

P.S... I am working at Domino's again! This time as a Shift Runner/Shift manager!!!! I go in today to do some training! I'm pumped!

I don't think you're ready for this jelly...

I don't think you're ready for this jelly. I don't think you're ready for this... My body's too bellylicious!!!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Ok now something has to be done about this whole cracking myself up thing. I've been doing it a lot lately. This is not an update on my long fun weekend. This is a pledge...

I, Krista Marie Kildea, will not get my hair colored by Aunt Barb or any other stylist until my bellylicious body is down to a size 8 jeans. 

You heard it here first. Size 8 and I will celebrate with a nice new jet black 'do.

Last night a dj saved my life...

I know this is completely against all of my wormsongs rules but Jack did it on myspace and said I was most likely to repost it. I have cut out a few questions because they are irrelevant.

not that I know of

Do you Cry? 
nope

Do you get Angry? 
nope

Do you Vomit? 
Actually, that's usually my goal!

Your favorite drink is?
Bahama Mama!!

Tequila does what to you? 
makes me want to cut of my tastebuds... grossss!!

Do you smoke when you drink?
sometimes but I am kicking that this summer!

On the rocks or straight up?

one that Heidi makes... it's about 25/75 mixer/booze

the non-existent kind!

Aren't things more easy with a tight six pack?...

News Worthy of Front Page Space!

1. Ok maybe not front page... Today is day two of Papier Mache with David and Ellie! We will be adding another layer to our forms and hopefully not boiling over to paste twice like last time. What a mess to clean up! We'll probably be adding two more layers Tuesday and Wednesday and painting and decorating on Thursday! Pictures will be posted when it's all finished!

2. My new signature dish: Fruit and Yogurt! Simple, yes but also extremely delicious! Last Wednesday I stayed late and had dinner with the kids. We made frozen pizzas and I was searching for some sort of vegetable to give them... NOTHING! So I cut up some fruit and I saw that there was a thing of vanilla yogurt in the fridge. I've always heard that vanilla yogurt is a good substitute for fruit dips and of course it's how you make fruit and yogurt parfait duh! So i took it a step further and mixed it all up together and came out with my own version of a waldorf salad! I am addicted so this will be the dish I bring to all family get togethers!!

3. The Vaheys are going to Michigan this weekend! They are leaving Early Friday, around 3 and not coming home until Monday night. Why on earth is this so exciting? It's taking away two of the 10 days I have left with them!! Well you see... Friday I will go get the kids from school and be done at 3. I will still get paid for the full day and Monday is a paid holiday! I am even more happy because I will get to go to my aunt Jill's house for the weekend!!! I called her today and she said that Uncle Larry, Aunt Lynn, and Lissy will also be there so we will have a terrific time! Yay for weekend get aways!!

You say I must eat so many lemons...

In case you just can't wait until tomorrow here are the topics of my day:

1. Papier Mache
After the last two big projects I have done with David and Ellie and how much they've enjoyed doing them (kids being so excited about our flowers sprouting, Lisa's voicemail to me almost in tears because she was so happy about the mothers day story and telling me how I really really should become a teacher) I was having a hard time finding a new task for us to work on for the next week.  I finally decided on Papier mache. Originally we were going to make masks and use balloons for our forms but then I realized that the concept of having to make edges of the mask would be too difficult for David. Let's just make full heads I said! So, yesterday the kids and I started our newest project making papier mache heads. It is a messy messy project so if you feel like attempting it proceed with the greatest caution!

2. ok go
Manifest was yesterday.  I had to work so I was kind of bummed because I couldn't see any of the performances during the day but it was alright in the end when I got to see ok go. All I knew was they had something to do with treadmills and my friend Lisa told me they put on a really fun show so I met with Kristin and we saw ok go! She introduced me to her parents and a few of her friends from her improv class at school.

3. New friends, Clarke's, and IO
So after meeting a few of Kristin's friends who were all pretty killer we started to walk away from the park and decided we wanted to hang out and go somewhere since our u-passes would expire today. Kaz, an exchange student from London, wanted to go to rock and roll McDonalds and coldstone creamery which apparently is located right down the street from mcDs.  We all got on the train and realized that since the redline was elevated we wouldn't be able to get off at the correct stop. Kristin, being as amazing as she is, suggested that we go to Clarke's instead!! Good idea Kristin!!! Kaz had never been there and neither had Al/El (some other dude who was with us) so we thought it was extremely necessary that we change our course and hit up Clarke's. So Clarke's was fun and all but nothing super exciting happened... I ordered chicken strips, sweet potato fries with mayo, and a strawberry shake as usual and yeah that's all for Clarke's.  Kristin then noticed that it was only 1115 and that the Improv Jam at IO started at 12 and suggested that we go there next. I was super pumped because we've been hoping to see "Improv Baby" again and we figured he'd be there. No such luck! He wasn't there and the show wasn't very good this time around. The end.

4. Train ride from IO
I'll make this as short as possible. The four of us got on the train to head home along with these two fellas, one of which was trashed and looking for a bottle opener for his 40 of Heineken. We sat down in the four seats facing each other and the dudes sat in the two seats on either side of the train closest to us.  The drunk guy started chatting up Kaz about her accent, which was discussed in great length that is was actually a dialect, and she seemed cool with it and chatted with him and fed him some interesting thoughts. They got on the topic of religion and not believing in god which led to the dude saying that you just gotta believe in yourself and all this shit. The conversation then moved to MLK Jr. and the I have a Dream speech, which Kaz backed up the foreigners by saying that he basically stole the speech from some ABBA lyrics! The guys friend was obviously kind of embarrassed by his friend and just sat quietly in his seat giggling now and again.  Eventually the conversation got pretty damn funny and the guy was all like, "haha man i love you" and kaz laughed a little. SOme random topic came up and somehow got to the man saying that when a dude tells a girl her loves her he's just trying to get with her. Kaz quickly brought up the fact that he just said this very thing to her and he was like oh no man I just meant i really love talking to you on this train. It was just a funny fucking train ride. Kaz and Kristin got off at Monroe and then the guy chatted me up for a second and got only my lovely responses like: right, uh huh, apparently, maybe... He said "I'm Christian" and tried to shake my hand. I said, " ooh I'm not much of a shaker dude" and he felt pretty shot down. He then asked my name and I said I wasn't sure what my name was for the night. His friend giggled a bit more and said his name was Enrique. Enrique and I both got off the train at roosevelt.
5. Could I maybe call you sometime?
I get off the train and make my way down the stairs and out the turn-style and off to the corner. I got to the corner and I hear yelling "hey!! Hey!! hey!!" I kept walking and the heys continued so I turned around. Fucking Enrique was yelling after me! I thought maybe he needed directions or a phone or something so i decided to be nice and waited for him to run up to me. "Uh, I was wondering if maybe I could call you sometime?".... ahahahahaha no fucking way did he just say that... it was too funny because he had this really shy and unsure voice and I felt a little bad for him... "yeah, probably not man"... "oh you got a  boyfriend?" .... "yeah, yeah, uh huh, sorry"... I am not usually too quick on my toes with excuses and comebacks but he set me up with the BF question. I answered in a way that would make him not question my answer and obviously it worked. I walked away and started cracking up. Then I got home and went to bed.

Too much funny for one day... earlier in the evening i saw a couple of cross dressers on the train, really ugly men who made even uglier women... the night just kept getting better!

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!!!

WOOHOO!!! Dichterliebe analysis done! I finished last night before I went to sleep and now today I just feel like a whole new person! I no longer hate school and I think the rest of these two weeks will go by just fine. Apparently that paper was one huge sack of bricks in my bag because now I just feel like playing and scooting with the kids and just going crazy! 

I can't wait to be back in Michigan for the summer!!! Camping, UP, parties, taco house, ice cream, and my friends!!! It's coming quick. 24 days to be exact. May 31st in the later evening I will be home and so far I have no plans until Sunday so I'm up for grabs for Saturday night anything! 


 Owosso, be prepared for hurricane Krista. You will be left completely rocked!
