DUMPY!!!

Today started off good. Then got real bad in two seconds.

(But then it got really good again. So yeah. Heh!)

So I get to the Hill around 9:30 and start wandering around, looking for dumpsters. HEH. That was awesome. Found the perfect one right off Thomas St., then headed back to my car and waited for Amanda 'cause the Seattle Marathon had her bus running late. Went to meet up with her in front of Riteaid, and immediately got harassed twice in the span of about 5 minutes. Never wearing a tube dress in Seattle ever again without the protection of a male. Seriously.

The reason my whole day almost got ruined: this guy with a bike approaches me and asks if I'd be interested in buying his shitty fucking mountain bike for $20. I politely decline.

"Are you sure? Do you know anyone who needs a christmas gift?"
"...no. Sorry."
"WOW! Your teeth are REALLY yellow! LEMME SEE!"
"What the f... no!"
"Why are they like that?"
*just wanting to get him the fuck out of my face* "If you must know, they're fake and I smoke and they stain easily." *death glare*
"So that's how you ward off guys, right?"
"Yep. Thanks." *GLARE*

Dude rides off.

FUCKING. ASSHOLE. Ya know, usually I really enjoy people who have a serious lack of brain-to-mouth filter. Not these ones. Didn't this guy learn ANY manners as a child?! FUCK. WHO DOES THAT?!?!

So anyway. Heh. Amanda finds me, then we go check out the dumpy. Decided against the first one 'cause it was full of food waste and stunk HORRIBLY. But the one behind it was for recycling and therefore wasn't disgusting. And I rolled around in it for an hour and a half. HEH! We almost weren't able to shoot there, though. Someone who must have been the apartment manager walked out the side door and asked us to not hang out there. We told him we were just doing a photoshoot, but picked up our stuff to leave anyhow. He explained that he had a lot of issues with junkies trying to shoot up in that little alcove, and they usually argue with him, but when we picked up to leave immediately and he saw the camera, he let us stay. Good effing thing, too.

So yeah. This was the single most amazing photoshoot I've ever experienced. Love Amanda. LOVE HER. Can't wait for the finished product(s)!

Afterward I went and hung out with Chelsey and Tyler until Chelsey had to leave for work, then Tyler and I went shopping at H&M and Barnes & Noble. I was saddened to find absolutely nothing at H&M. But I got this book I've been wanting forever, "I Am Not Myself These Days" by Josh Kilmer-Purcell. I'm about 36 pages in, and it's fucking incredible already.

Anyhow. Watchin' Family Guy. Drinkin' some M&R. Awww yeahhhh.

Work tomorrow at 10. Bleh.
