Starbucks + Radio Show = GOOD MOJO

posted by Iceprincezz

It was Super Size Weekend at the Mojo!

Saturday morning, where were you? Why were you NOT listening to MY show? Must I call you and wake you up to join me? OK gimme your number and I will…

So I stayed up WAY too late on Friday night to help our newest DJ SleepingBeauty(see: Jen B.) get her sound check done, considering I had about 3 hours of sleep the night before I was cranky. So when 6:00am rolled around I hit the snooze button and went back to sleep for an hour. I slithered out of bed and stumbled to my computer so I could catch the last hour of Luka’s show. She decided to do a three-hour show this weekend. Therefore, I got a bonus hour of her Mojo goodness! Two quadruple shots of espresso, later…I was live.

If I were to do a show on crack…I think it would be like this…

I did not plan my show on purpose. I wanted to see if I could just go live, unscripted, and do a request show with no planning. Guess what? I can. It was the most fun I have had since…ever. I had a FUN crowd in the chat room, and they dictated my play list. I played everything from “Tiffany” to “Lords Of Acid”. The requests just kept coming, so I kept playing. My show is usually only 3 hours, but we kind of lost track of time and went 4.5 instead! I do not have another DJ that follows me until 9pm EST so I was gonna go till they pulled the plug on me. I ended up getting some bad new during my show…so I ended it on a happy note, and promised to come back THIS Saturday with even more fun!


You can always download my pod cast, but I am much more fun live baby!

Is It Time For A Change?

posted by Iceprincezz

I was looking at my blog template yesterday…

I LOVE LOVE LOVE What Lisa over at Elegant Webscapes did for me. However, I have been contemplating a new design. Not so different from what I have now…just maybe a different color scheme or a different pin-up?

What do you think?

 

(Everyone BUT Franky Can answer this one-I know I know Franky, you have been bitching at me since Blogathon to get a new one!-LOL)


Happy FREAKIN Friday!

Do you KNOW how damn excited I am to see the end of THIS week come?! I honestly thought there was gonna be some bloodshed here at “Idiot Moving & Storage”. Luckily, this has been avoided, although the day is not over. Don’t worry I have the camera with me in case something good happens.

I Want To…

….Punch Rusty In The Face…Like a Bee!

OK so I do love my job. I honestly do. I mean where else can I sit around all day blogging, and listening to KMRL AND get paid for it? However, days like yesterday make me wanna listen to Gwar and punch people. Is that bad?

Rusty who we shall call…Rusty (cause that’s his name, YO!) is the senior guy on my crew. Not because he is a particularly GOOD mover. Or even because he is well liked by shippers. It’s ONLY because all the rest of the crew has either gone to jail, left or been fired. Therefore, he moved up through the ranks rather quickly in the last year. Now, he thinks his crap doesn’t stink…and let me tell you…it DOES!

Yesterday Rusty came into work with a pissy attitude, I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because he is 22 and has like five kids, and a lazy ass girlfriend who won’t get her driver’s license? Or maybe it’s just because he’s Rusty. Either way…when I am instructing him on his daily duties for that day, and he walks out WHILE I am talking…it makes me oh….I dunno kinda…hmmmm…BITCHY! I know you are shocked at this right? <—-that was my SARCASM font.

The day went on, and of course, “The Goof Troop” forgot to take mattress cartons to the job. You know…when Rusty decided to walk out…that’s when I was telling him what he needed. Soooo…they call me and tell me they have to come back for them. I grumble, but I pull what cartons we had. When they came back, I told them to take mattress bags out for the shipper. Rusty took SOME. They knew they needed larger sized ones on the job…and they KNEW we were out. Why he didn’t take what he needed when he was here? I dunno… so he called me and told me to find some mattress bags to fit (shall I pull them out of my ass? It’s not a magic ass you know)…Now…I said I would look for some…however *I* am the boss here. You don’t TELL me to do anything. I am now thinking the bottle of Jack Daniels hidden in my bathroom is sounding pretty damn good at this point.

Oh no…It gets better.

I am on an important phone call when the shipper from today’s job walks into my office and says the crew sent HER to come get mattress bags. I smile sweetly, put the important call on hold, and run out into the warehouse. I KNOW we don’t have any more, but ya know…lemme look again anyway. I ask my warehouse supervisor (who was busy checking off a military shipment) to look again. Yeah duh, we are out. I then explain to the shipper that the crew has shrink-wrap on the truck and can double shrink-wrap her mattress’ at no charge, but let me make sure they have enough with them. I call Rusty, and he yelled AT ME, that I need to go out and find her the bags, because he SAW them out there. (OK Genius, if you saw them…why did you not TAKE them) I explain we did this, and just to shrink-wrap the mattress, so I can get off the phone and get rid of her. Before I can even say, do you have enough shrink…the bastard hangs up on me? I wanted to drive to the job and choke him…but you know…I am lazy. So I pretend I am still on the phone, and smile, and tell the shipper that everything is dandy and she leaves my offices. I get on the phone with Rusty and discipline him and ask yet again, if he has enough shrink. He hangs up…OK whatever. I made a call to the owner and let him know I was going to kill Rusty. He said he would have a talk with him (yeah that helped LAST time), and please don’t kill him until the end of the day. (Did I mention I love my boss?) In the meantime…I lost that important phone call I was on cause my hold music sucks. *banging head on desk*

The day is almost over. My military shipment is almost unloaded and so far, it’s gone well, so I am not stressed over it. Then it happens. I knew it would...”The Goof Troop” calls, and needs…that’s right…more shrink-wrap. I was just about to say go to hell…when another guy who works here drove up. I sent him instead. Had *I* gone, there would have been bloodshed. Not Mine. Today Rusty came into work and didn’t say two words to me. It’s best. I am in a great mood. I had a great night. I want to have a GREAT day. I have my boots on today. It’s likely if he spoke to me I would snap and kill him, and stuff his body in a vault…We can make things disappear here you know…we do it all the time…I mean…you know…furniture. Riiight. My warehouse supervisor just told me he stays up at night thinking of ways to torture Rusty…we are a sick sick bunch of people here at “Idiot Moving & Storage.” Please send help.

Dear Ass-Hat!

posted by Iceprincezz

Dear Mr. Ass-Hat;

You in your giant, Ford F-350, gas-hog, lifted, tinted windowed, overcompensating for what you lack in your pants…bad driver. I hate you! Yes, I truly do. I wish you would smash into a tree and die.

Every DAMN morning I get behind you. It doesn’t matter what time I leave my house. It doesn’t matter how fast I drive to work. EVERY morning you are there. Either behind me, riding my ass… Ohhhh and the next time you do that?…um yeah, I am gonna slam on my breaks (because I saw a ghost) and watch you smash into the back of my car. Have you SEEN my car? I need a new one, and you can obviously afford to buy me one. Then there are the times when you race around me, nearly running me off the road, because you sat around scratching yourself all morning watching midget porn, and now YOU are late for your construction job, where you get to bang a big hammer! YAY you! You drive like a complete moron. You switch lanes without a signal. You drive 40 in a school zone, and then when you turn in front of me, as you do every day, you don’t think you need to use a turn signal. Why is that? Do you think I can read your pee-sized mind? Well no Mr. shit-for-brains. I CAN’T!

Read My License plate ass-monkey…It says ICEPRINCEZZ for a reason!

Please FUCK-OFF!

Sincerely, Iceprincezz

I DID IT!

posted by Iceprincezz

I actually had a show on KMRL on Saturday.

OK so it wasn’t the best show to ever air on the station. In fact, it was most likely the worst, however…I was just happy to have finally gotten it all together. It was a long road to get there but I think it was worth it. I had a lot of fun, and I learned a lot in the process. I learned a lot about new friends, old friends, who my REAL friends are, and a LOT about me.

The night before I had all but given up since I was still plagued with sound issues even after a new sound card, install. (Thanks Jen for donating a new sound card to my cause!) Unfortunately, that made things worse. After three hours of Clark redoing everything back and forth. I said, “I’m done!” I gave up and sent him home to his wife. I sat down to listen to The Dark Hours, since I was home anyway. That didn’t cheer me up…in fact it only made me feel worse, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to do a show the next day…so I went to bed and cried myself to sleep like a big emotional baby. I was tired, emo, and ready to kick small puppies to the moon.

I hate that about me. I need to work out, or do Yoga or something for a release so I don’t spew forth onto people I care about. I have no idea why I was feeling the way I was. Maybe weeks of frustration, and self-doubt had mounted to that point. I am a cancer, so we do that. We just hold it all in, until it’s just too much and the person closest to us at that point ends up with our wrath. So if I was horrible to you on Friday, I am sorry.

For those of you who helped me through all this, either on the technical end or just the emotional support, and friendship. Thank you. I love you guyz!

After my show on Saturday, I felt like going out and hugging random people.
That…is good MOJO!

I’d Like To Buy A Clue…

posted by Iceprincezz

…For our friend Nate.

He called Tuesday night. I did not answer. (To be fair, my phone was shut off)

He called last night. I didn’t answer. I was having a better conversation on line with a hot guy who did not tell me how much he owned.

He called 15 freaking minutes later. I STILL did not answer.

What part of I don’t go out monday-wednesday was not clear?! He left yet another message containing the word “holla” and “late” asking me if I wanted to “hang tonight”. I’m not sure what the hell that actually means, but perhaps when Nate figures out how to speak in complete grammatically correct sentences, I’ll answer the phone. Until then, he can enjoy dating my voice mailbox.

We Shall Call Him Nate…

posted by Iceprincezz

‘Cause that’s his name.

I know I am not feeling very creative these days…but read on anyway won’t you? Good!

JenB and I went to a little Halloween party the other night at a bar we hadn’t been to in a long time. The last time we were there things got ugly so we decided it just wasn’t worth it. Our Friend Veigny was doing his karaoke show there, and Jen wanted another excuse to wear her costume so off we went.

We got there and immediately there were way too many people for my liking. Maybe I should clarify. Way too many people I don’t LIKE. We got a table and sang one sing right away. I was having an OK time when Jen exclaimed she was “over it”. At that point, I figured I should just choke her. This was HER idea. I was against it from the beginning, as it was a “work night” for me, and I am kind of over this going out during the week more than once. I got a sitter, put on 10 lbs. of makeup, and teased my hair. We were staying damn it!

As the night progressed, and the men (boyz) became more intoxicated I guess I suddenly looked like someone who would date them, because they started to talk to me. (Note to self: get scarier costume next year.) Bachelor number 1 was dressed in a mullet wig and a “PONY” shirt. Yes, I frequently date men who don’t look like they took much time to think of a costume…or was it a costume? I dunno…either way. NO! Then we have Nate. His friend had to talk to me for him. What are we in high school? The conversation went something like this….

“Hey, my friend wants to know what you are drinking.”

OK THIS guy (Nate’s friend) is not in costume, he is dressed like he just got off work…in a field of some sort. He kind of smells funny.

“Um why? Is he taking a survey?”

“HUH?”

OK Nate’s friend has no sense of humor, this is futile.

“Stoli cran.”

“What’s that?”

“Stoli, and cranberry.”

“What’s Stoli?

Shaking head in disbelief “It’s VODKA”

“Oh”

He looks at his friend and says something, then he asks what Jen is drinking, and I say the same. She wasn’t really drinking, but a free drink is a free drink. They returned shortly with a couple of drinks, set them down and walked away. I just looked at Jen and shrugged. Of course, I thought they probably put that date rape drug in there or something and were waiting for us to fall over. They returned again and started talking to us. Well, Nate started talking to me. Jen and Nate’s friend just sat quietly next to each other trying not to make eye contact.

Nate decided the best way to impress me would be to tell me about much crap he owns. OK this is about the WORST thing you can do. I am NOT materialistic. I have a job. I support myself. Men who think they can buy me offend me. I am NOT like that. Hey Nate…I don’t care if you have a house…dude…it’s in BAKERSFIELD. I’d rather live in the warehouse at work, than live in Bakersfield! This debacle continues with him asking for my number. I know I know I should have given him the reject number, but I was afraid I would see him again somewhere and he’d kill me in the parking lot. I gave him my number. I honestly didn’t think he would even remember to call, but alas, he did. First of all I told him I could not go out Mon-Wed as I have my kids and this Monday was a special occasion. Secondly I told him I work early in the morning and don’t usually take calls after 9pm. (Of course my friends or hot guyz are the exceptions) Third, I told him I don’t hang out in Paso(the town we were in) except to go to work.

I had spent most of the evening on line with a friend of mine talking about shoes, then went to bed early. (I lead an exciting life don’t I?) My phone had died earlier in the day and I had forgotten to put it on the charger so when I turned it on this morning I had a message from Nate on my voice mail. He was asking me if I wanted to hang out with him Paso tongiht. WTF!?

Please please please men…when you call a girl you are interested in, unless she is dressed in a trucker hat turned sideways and a “bootylicious” T-shirt do not ever use the words “Holla” and “peace-out”. Do I LOOK like I am auditioning for “Flavor of Love” to you? NO! You live in Bakersfield, not Oakland. You are not kewl because you speak all ghetto. NO NO NO! Have some class…’aight!?

I will not be “Hollering” at Nate in the near future…or…ever.

Peace-Out
