(Inside the miracle on Melrose Christmas pop up bar)

Last nights outing was exactly what i needed. Nor Baby Slut <3 & I are big on Xmas...BUT its our first December together & we decided to get in the spirit...lately hes been sending me a bunch of photos of Xmas ornaments & i thought? Waiiiit...are you like? Asking me if i wanna like decorate a tiny tree with you?!? Lets DO IT! Like i stated in my previous post i was looking at these holiday drinks on Yelp all weekend long...looking forward to trying them!

                 

This stop at the Melrose bar was completely unplanned & he had me at..."they serve a drink in a T-REX mug"  Let me tell you...as soon as we walked in the play list was EVERYTHINGt it was great. Blink followed by Green Day,No doubt, Fleetwood Mac. I will admit the decor was simple & sounds cheesy but i felt like i was in the north pole man. Every one at the bar was smiling,the staff was soooo friendly, they were happy to be there & that just made the experience all together friendly & Fun. One of our servers had an Elliot Smith tattoo & Baby Slut noticed & the server who's name was Rocco, his face lit up ! That feeling when someone notices something you have on whether its a t-shirt,a tattoo or? A purse will never get old.

                                Look its a photo of Krampus and Saint Nick! HA.
                         I was trying to hide my tummy in this photo and it kinda worked :) this was taken in the back room ..its a tiny room,with about? maybe? 13 christmas trees and a few tables its more intimate and private than the first room.

                                                                            =^_^=

Things are slowly getting back to normal, I'm sitting at work,listening to Sagittarian Matters I swear I could listen to Nicole talk ALL day about vegan recipes, offering dating advice or her awesome dog Ponyo. I got the blogging itch, I've got my caramel brulee, I finally bought the foundation that doesn't break me out gnarly and make me look like my 14 year old self in High school...my acne was worst.What can i say ? Life is good. I don't have any days off so, I apologize to those in advance that have asked me to hangout and i unfortunately am too exhausted or would rather stay in but I promise i'll be better about that.
It's the last three weeks of the year.... My only goals is to fix my hair, buy new crystals for my altar, finish this new zine.It's been three months since the last time I got REALLY wasted. That might change tonight! if you are looking for something Chrismassy to do, the here & now bar in downtown is doing this Christmas pop up all month long. I've been looking at the drinks on Yelp the past few days i'm so psyched again this is what happens when you're at work all day you daydream about the weekend and the hell you'll be putting your poor liver through.
                                       This past Friday Baby Slut <3 took me to a show at the Belasco theater, I had never been,such a fancy looking venue. Anyway he scored tickets for $6 bucks on stub hub to see Touche Amore & La Dispute. I had seen Touche earlier this year and I couldn't believe how wild people still get at shows ...so wild I got kicked in the face. I had never seen La Dispute but i survived both sets without getting shoved by any of those scary looking bearded dudes, ya know the ones you can tell are there to fuck up somebody? yeah those. I'm not into either of these bands but it was a fun experience and something different, different energy and the crowd gets really into it! I like going to see bands I've never seen even if i'm not into it. Just being in that environment and watching a live band play is therapeutic for me.I like to listen to the lyrics and look really into it ...like what where they going through when they wrote this? what does it mean? I also like hearing the back story and how old where they? what brought them together! There's a back story for everything.
Lets continue...
 We met up with Baby Slut's friend, i can't pronounce his name so when we got home i told baby slut that i'd call him "Aristocat".We went for Ramen after the show, i tried this delicious beer, don't recall the name but the can was blue and it had an owl on it,the waiter recommended it. Shout out to our waiter!
My favorite part of the night was walking through downtown LA at midnight and looking up at the pretty buildings and the fog. It was like a scene from a movie! let me rephrase that ...that's what Gotham City would look like.

The Fur Children are great. Church my youngest is getting chubbier...and i'm a believer once more that she DOES HAVE FAT CAT potential. Her face is beginning to look more like a british short hair...mmmh..only time will tell.Pictures to come next blog.

                                             anyway ...Happy Holidays.

Here its December ...everyday.

December has arrived ... Being back to working retail makes this both exciting & a little stressful. Im psyched though.
Starting next week im back to full time, five days a week! ^_^
I've been seeing everyone going to buy early Christmas presents, their carts filled with wrapping paper, egg nog & bottles of wine. And then i clock out and end up going to fill my cart with wine & bourban...premade star wars cookies and cat wine...who am I?
P.s. note to self buy bourban & root beer next time.

I went to see Frozen 2 on opening day at the El Capitan theater. There was magic in the air! The smell of popcorn & pastries ugh! I loved it all. Baby Slut aka (swamp monster < can't call him that anymore its played out man) was kind enough to join me for this long awaited premier!
The songs & the story line i felt were more interesting in this one than the first one. Olaf hilarious as always & Anna has got to be my favorite character shes so funny & witty.They kept talking about the 4 elements which left me with one question..are they of pagan descent? Mmmhh.. Right?

My friend Ziggy surprised me the other day at work with her appearance & a neat gift! A white spiderweb cardigan 💙 i dont think i own anything in white. I cannot wait to wear it.

There is one thing that i do wanna do before the year ends & that is go to Disneyland! I went last year with link aka Angry Roxy ...she made me get on the incredibles coaster & the avengers ride ..that moment youre too scared you end up holding hands with a complete stranger!
Anyways i was contacted by my old job the dog place this is the second time they contact me to come back. I figured its because they dont have the knowledge to train a new employee. Its sad really.
They are still loosing clients....

In happier news i did stop by today to drop off my cousins late bday gift & to say hi to Roxy.
I did get to see two doggos Bo & Finnley Moon. I was told a favorite of mine Captain Skrimps has returned ! Ahhh i kid you nawt if that dog was a kid he'd be very kept to himself & definately a teacher's pet.

Any new years resolutions?
Mine would be write more, read more, hang with your friends more & make new friends.

The Art of panic.

Im torn and more ..
 worn out like your favorite band tee.
Been somewhat since the day i was born
Like it was just yesterday that i was dragged on to the shore not preserved but rotten to the core
Maybe its what i deserve
Just pull the next door
Move on where theres no mark or dent
You can start brand new
These tears are ruining this wooden floor

The record player plays in the distance
I want to hear nothing more than "to be alone" on repeat.
My view doesnt let me look past this
With no way of knowing if im being fed something real
My never ending craving of something pure...
Dont want to be lured into a blur and end up on the other side of that empty road like the last time...

Sunday.

Here's a cute photo of someone's mini donut order from work. ^_^ if you haven't you should stop by & try the yellow carrot donut plus the coffee & cambria its soooooo delicious & now by thinking about it im having a drooling Homer moment.
I dont have much to say today but uhhh..
I get to have the next 3 days off i believe. ^_^
I'm starving & it's been a little more than a month since I've been sober.
Like i said in my old entry my skin looks great, I'm not bloated & its nice to wake up without my head throbbing.
Last night i was at a show Peter Hook & the light & i enjoyed myself, got to hear some joy division & new order material. Scoring free tickets is my latest trend! It actually works!
What more can i tell you?
The weather is finally starting to feel less hot,  & going to the grocery store and seeing all the thanksgiving food on sale is kinda exciting.
I'm determined to have a vegan thanksgiving this time around. I've been up since 10 am ...looking at recipes. Home cooking at home has become another thing we've been doing lately. It saves money & we don't waste 40 - 50 bucks a night.
I do miss the late dinners at Ten Ramen .....

You can find me napping....

I was in the presence of Billie Eilish not too long ago..it was magical. 

In other news....

Welp.

Its official....i will probably have no days off for the next three months.My workaholic ass thought it'd be cool to get a seasonal job..no regrets i suppose. Anything to make that extra cash. I come home smelling like donuts..& everything sweet & the next day i wear a red shirt & stock up beauty products.This is it ...two completely different types of environments i rarely get to see my cats now but i know it'll be worth it..theyll get new stuff & their food cabinet is ALWAYS packed. My oldest D.Mcmittens is very vocal about his meals. I think he might've been some sort of king in his past life. 

 I've been listening to nothing but Type O negative, Peach Kelli Pop, Creature Feature & Madonna.

And whatever the meow plays in his car 😅

He's officially a stay at home wife...the other day he made pumpkin waffles & i gotta say they were...so fucking delicious. A + for presentation...even chef Ramsey would've approved. He makes the foods and i eat it & sometimes i makes the food. 

Umh...idk how we're getting by but there's a lot of coupons & smart spending being done.

Mini rant time.

A lot of people have been asking me why i left the dog place ...& here's the tea i can finally express myself on how i feel. Why? Because fuck them that's why Instead of faking a smile & pretending that everything was ok. The truth is I'm done with the dog place & quite frankly i REALLY wish i wouldve left earlier like two years ago ..it was completely under payed not even the minimum.

The owner is a trump supporter & full on anti feminist. There i said it! He gives no shits about the dogs just about making money ..that is why he sold the place to two inexperience business owners..& they're clearly NOT dog lovers. They dont know the first thing about working with animals.The place went the first four years with fully exposed windows & then they decided to cover them up all of a sudden ...because its whats best for the dogs but every single fucking time i would go in for my shift the dogs were unsupervised shit & piss EVERYWHERE. While the new owner's wife would be sitting in the front desk as if she was too high up to walk in there & pick up dog poop like c'mon man...youre managing a business thats going downhill quick. Show that you care a little.Everything changed in a matter of 2 weeks,prices went up, rules were different, the person closing had more work to do because little miss boss was too fucking lazy to scrub daycare in the mornings like its ALWAYS been done. Every time she had a complaint she would approach it with attitude, & i sure as hell was not gonna take orders from a ghetto 24 year old that has no fucking clue what shes doing.No thank you! I tried to be nice & helpful in the beginning but it was pointless ...hours were being cut faster than the blink of an eye. During the first years i saw so many dogs get mistreated, i saw so many employees loose their jobs, being taken advantage of, not being paid correctly or on time. We wouldn't get lunches, their thing was eat whenever you get the chance.
Lunch didnt start happening till this year because he couldn't afford to pay us. 

Dogs would get into fights & the owner didnt wanna reach out to the client he always refused to talk to them...unsatisfied clients that would go in for grooming were the first to be ignored.
There was a dog that got lost about a year ago & the way the owner handled that situation was completely careless, irresponsible he was too much of a pussy to talk to the dogs parents. He hid behind his employees & constantly came up with lame excuses that he was busy & he let my manager at the time handle it on her own and it should've never have been like that to begin with. That is why he has a few law suits going on ...

Long story short i gave my two weeks & even though it hurt that i wasnt going to see my furry pals again i knew itd be for the best.My co-worker would still be there taking care of them. 

Here's the thing if you REALLY care about your dog go to a doggy daycare where there's cameras, listen to your dog when he looks too scared to walk in, make sure the owners are friendly & they are welcoming to your pet. 

I never thought id be one of those people in Silverlake but it is truly a shit show business.

Do not support bone sweet bone. 

Their yelp page is filled with nothing but fake reviews some are real..about 5% to be honest with you.  

Anyways end rant. 

Goodbye Spooky season ...hello Orange & yellow leaves.

....and just like that another Halloween gone by. I spent it sick in bed watching spooky films & hanging with the meows. Mr.Kitty felt bad so he brought me food. Our plans to go out that night were canceled & today i started my day off at the doctors.. 3 needles later... They couldnt find my vein so they ended up poking me in 3 different spots. I felt guilty calling off from work & this is completely my fault for waiting and not going in for my problem sooner. I've got my pills & plenty of naps. 

This afternoon my cuddle bud is Church the grey kitten.Every day that passes she gets a teeny bit bigger. I was at Rite Aid earlier today & i saw all the Thanksgiving decor & Xmas & realized shoot the next two months are gonna fly by & before you know it it'll be new year! Its intense! 

& here i am trying to figure things out... 

Anyways till next time.
