Fiona Apple - I Know

I wish I got free gum. The only free things I get are little flyers handed out by Asian students by the downtown library that tell me to go learn English. I guess they figure all Asian people that look like they might be students are assumed to be non-English speakers. Oh well.

About a week ago, the Green Party phoned me and asked if I had time to volunteer for some stuff because they pretty much need all the help they can get before election time (they got my number back when I volunteered for EPIC and I talked to Adrianne Carr). So I hesitantly phoned them back and I wanted to do some office work because I didn't want to go out and talk to people and hand out flyers. But then they said something how the CBC National was going to interview Adrianne Carr on the streets and they wanted to make it look like she had some supporters/volunteers around, so I said I could make it.

The TV crew never showed up. I got to hand out little pamphlet thingies and briefly talk to people, and now they want me to do more street stuff with them. Argh. I don't have the heart to say, "I don't really want to volunteer with you guys anymore." or "I'd like to, but I'd probably like to stay off the street." I probably should or they'll keep phoning me on my cell.

Smallville is on hiatus... for an entire week. Wow. Yay. I'm probably going to be going in next week and doing the same stuff. I don't know how long I can put up with this job. I told myself I'd at least do this for a week. Maybe I should extend that to a month. Hmm.

EDIT: They phoned me while I was out and I found myself volunteering for them on Tuesday and Thursday, waving a sign at cars. At least I told them I don't like talking to people.

Happy birthday Ann! How does it feel to be no longer in your teens? When shall I give you your fabulous presents?

For some reason, I felt really lonely last night. And then I listened to some Fiona Apple, and then it made me cry. I don't know why either. I guess I was reminded how I don't really have any close guy friends, or I guess people who live nearby. Sure, there's Kem, but I haven't talked to him in weeks and he's seemingly always going to be busy with something to make time for me or for other friends/people. Stupid Kem.

I need to stop listening to that song.

Hope you guys are well. Let's do something soon or I'll be crazy.
