Spider Surprise

Jess found a spider in her room today. Just lifted her pillow and there it was. She screamed bloody murder. I couldn't help but laugh.

A Garden Spider, like the one I tried to keep as a pet a month back. Harmless. Poor thing was probably terrified.

Anyway, I let it out into those trees nearby.

Funeral

Ellie's funeral today. It was... I don't know an OK service? I've never understood why people use words like "nice" to describe funerals. I mean... it's a funeral. It's, by its very nature, not nice.

Her boyfriend-- I think his name is Hank?-- kept glaring at me through the whole thing, which is weird. The police were there too, though they kept their distance.

Afterward, Jess and I just sort of sat around the apartment, doing nothing.

Work is fucking boring.

What?

I'm almost all better now. Feeling better anyway. Or I was.

I was watching TV, and flipping through the channels, and I ran across the local news station.

Ellie McDonnell found dead in her home. Murdered.

Ellie.

My ex.

What the hell? I just can't believe it. She's dead? Who the fuck killed her?

Yep. Still sick!

Status update: I am still sick. Add "headache" to my list of things. I need to lie down.

Ugh

Sick today. Fever. Threw up too. Smelled terrible. Jess refused to clean it up, so I had to.

Well, on the bright side, no work today. But still, ugh.

Farewell

Jess is all upset. One of her rats is dead. Yeah, I didn't like those things, but it's still kind of depressing. It hurts to see Jess sad, you know?

Not sure how it died. It seemed healthy yesterday. Today it was dead and all swollen. Poor thing.

Stuff

My Ex apparently got herself a new boytoy. Certainly didn't take her long. Guy looks like a douche anyway.

Work sucks. I'm an assistant manager at a local store and it's sooooo boring. I hate it. Terrible work.

I came to home today to find that Jess had invited two of her friends over and they were watching some movie. The Thing I believe. Classic. I didn't want to intrude so I just went to my room and messed around on the computer for a bit. I wish I had a job like Jess's. She's an artist, sells T-Shirts and whatnot on zazzle. It doesn't actually pay all that well, but it's a great deal more fun that the crappy job I have.

But alas, I have no artistic ability.

Spider Man is Nonsense

How does spider DNA fix Peter Parker's eyesight? Spiders have terrible eyesight!

I asked this to Jess and she told me to shut up. Then she went back to playing Call of Duty.

I went to my room and played Zelda.

You needed to know this.

HAPPY FACE SPIDER

LOOK AT HOW HAPPY HE IS

Yeah, I'm bored.

Jess

We kind of
um.
last night
er
nevermind. Not important.

Anyway, I never told any of you non-existent followers what Jess looks like. She's my age (25) and we've been friends since high school. This is our first apartment. She's got long curly brown hair, almost black. Really pretty round face with these real pretty blue eyes. And freckles. Can't forget the freckles.

I mentioned before that she's got pet rats. I don't like them, but she loves the damn things. Fawns over them like crazy.

I'm thinking of buying a tarantula, but I don't want to freak her out.

(Ex)Girlfriend

My girlfriend (yes, I have had a girlfriend) broke up with me.

It wasn't even like a "hey I'm breaking up with you" kind of thing. She just refused to respond to any messages I sent her. When I finally just went to hear place and asked what was going on, she yelled at me. Called me a freak and said I was too clingy. Bitch.

Jess has declared that she'll be taking me to lunch and the movies tomorrow to cheer me up. Not sure what good it will do, but whatever.

Haven't posted in a week. I'd say I'm sorry, but no one reads this anyway.
