INVASION!

The ants are back. It was such a great time with them gone. We had about 2 months of antless days. Now they are back, and in greater force. I first noticed them in my room a few days ago, gathered on a box with a scanner in it. Today I did laundry and had put some clothes on my bed. About an hour later I notice a few ants on my bed, when I moved a pair of shorts there were about 50-60 ants underneath. I swatted them all off the bed and sprayed the ant killer and bleach on the floor. When I moved the shorts again I noticed more of them. They were all over that pair of shorts. I don't get it. I have to go to work soon so I can't clean up everything in here in time to leave. I guess tonight is Ben Cleans His Room Night and ANTSLAUGHTER 2008 Part Dos.

Tattoo Design

Oh. And I have come up with the final idea for the new tattoo.

I want to combine these three images into one thought.

1. The sign for chaos:


2. The Infinity Sign:


3: A top view of a lotus flower:


If anyone can come up with a design that incorporates all of these ideas in something awesome let me know...

Thank God For Work!!!

It's been a hell of a few days here friends. Lots of time on my hands. Lots of degenerate thoughts. Lots of drinking. (Though one tends to lead to another most of the time right?) Let's recount shall we?

Thursday: No Work. Feeling a bit down. Went to Gen's house. Proceeded to drink more then half a case of NattieIce while watching Not Another Teen Movie. Apparently made some videos that are now circulating YouTube. (Thank you Gen!) Slept a bit.

Friday: Woke up. Took Gen to work. Went to breakfast with Jess. Hung out with her and her roommate for a bit. (Those girls are a hoot and a half!) Came home. Sat around. Tried to nap. Went to iO West to cover a shift. Saw some good shows. Went home. Slept.

Saturday: Woke. Tried to go see a movie with Ash. (Emphasis on TRIED since everything that could go wrong DID go wrong.) Watched some OC. Went to class. Had an amazing class! (Love Craig Cackowski!) Ate some amazing food. Worked at iO again. Wanted to go to Becca's birthday... couldn't due to Prop 8 Protests happening all over the Westside. (Fuck you Conservitives for making the protests happen!) Went home. Slept.

Sunday: Woke. Did fuck all. Drank. Watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Sobered up. Drank. Watched Flight of the Concords. Went for a walk. Slept.

Monday: Woke. Did laundry. Saw Role Models with Pat. Wrote in my blog. Going to rehearsal. Coming home. Sleeping!

So thank god I am working tomorrow! (Though I just found out that I am replacing another extra so my call time has been moved from noon to 4pm. Which means I am not going to be able to hang with Jess... which equals a boo in my book.)

Hopefully things will pick up for the rest of the week.

I can't wait to go home for a few days!

At least I put myself out there for once instead of letting it eat away at me and wondering what if.

You know that feeling when you have a cold coming on? That slight tickling in the back of your throat on the first day. The rised tempurature? The little runny nose? All those added together and you know that you will be sick for the next couple of days because you didn't catch on soon enough to take any precaution and nip it in the bud? Well it works with crushes too.

Didn't see it coming. Just weeks ago I was writing how I hadn't had any feelings for girls in a long time. (It's true. Go back a few posts and read for yourself.) Then I stumble into a conversation with a few people on set that I can really sink my teeth into. Video games, bad movies, comics. Awesome! Plus one of them is from Washington and actually knew my alma mater. And she was a hot little number too. (Very much my type if you know what my type is.) We had some great conversations and I thought, cool now I have a new friend and someone to talk to on set when I get to work with her. Should have nipped it in the bud then! Taken whatever the emotional equivelant of Airbourne would be. But I didn't. Hung out with her outside of work. Turns out she really is alot of fun to be around and we really do "click" on multiple levels. Got to know her even more today as we carpooled to set and spent most of the day together.

Now? Now I feel that slight tickle on the inside. The little smile that I get when I start to like someone in a bit more than friendly way. And I am wondering if I should squash it down now, or let it play out. I really don't know. On the one hand I have some pretty hard evidence that she might like me in return. (Though it could just be mixed signals.) On the other I don't want to go and make it weird since we do end up working together quite abit it seems, if I am judging things wrong. It should be easy. Ask her out, see what she says. But I see myself doing what I do best, dancing around it too long and watching her go off with someone else because I haven't made my feelings known clear enough and she doesn't want to wait.

Sitting here rereading that last statement I think I have decided to just make it clear now and see what happens so this doesn't get too out of hand.

Also, there is a helicopter flying around Glendale for the past 10 minutes... I wonder what happened.
