I'm just testing sending messaging from my phone to see if it's worth it:)

Big Mouth

So, lately I've really confided a lot in the people at work when I have problems at work. It's not that I trust them, but they are just always there, and they're nosie so they normally listen. It's just that I don't have anyone at home that gives me that. I can't talk to my best friend because she's normally in bed in the time I have before I go to work, and I'm too tired to talk when I get home. Our schedules just don't allow us time to get together. My boyfriend just doesn't listen. Lately our lives revolve around him so when I talk to him, he doesn't care...
What brought this up? Yesterday I got my 90 day evaluation, and I told my manager how I get blaimed for things that this other girl does (and I said her name) well, he told me something stupid like our store doesn't discriminate, and it made me upset, then I got worried because I thought I might get this girl in trouble. So I seen one of the girls from the deli, and I told her about it, she was on break, and we were walking together, and I talked to her about it. She didn't seem like she really cared, but she never talks much but...man now I sound crazy thinking about how I'll just talk to the first person I know and spill my guts, but I have no one to talk to. I called Thunda on my break but he didn't want to talk, he was helping some friends move, but he said they were finished and that he'd be at the store before my break was over, so I called my best friend, but 30 minutes is just not long enough for us to talk about everything so I talked to the girl in the bakery about it, which she didn't make me feel 100% better, but it helped. Thunda doesn't understand how crazy my life is right now, and I don't think he really cares. He compared me to some crazy lady that randomly started talking to him in the store. So, I'm crazy because I'm trying to talk out my fustrations to people that aren't him. Maybe if he'd listen to me every once in a while I wouldn't have to talk to the girls at work about everything. Like I said, I really don't trust any of them, I just know something is going to bite me in the ass one day, but I don't really care. It feels good to get things off my chest and I've had a lot on my chest lately (but that's another blog post :)). Thunda told me I talk too much to other people, and really I've never been that way, but I've always had my good friends that listen to me all the time, and really he's all I have when I get off at the end of the day, and he's no help, so who do I turn to?...

Summer Time

So, It's beautiful outside, and I just started summer classes yesterday, but it doesn't feel like I actually got a summer. I think it's because I worked so much, that I didn't get to enjoy what I worked for. Oh well, hopefully I'll get a break soon...maybe when I graduate...man that seems like forever away! So, I'm taking 4 summer classes, then I'm taking 6 classes next semester so I can graduate...I can't wait! but...I'm going to be so busy! I hope the time goes by fast, like this summer. Summer started about 3 weeks ago, and it went by so fast, of course two out of those three weeks, Thunda was gone out of town, but that's okay, the time apart was good for us. This hopefully is my summer to get back in shape. Me and Thunda got a Wii Fit, and that's a good start. It is an awesome too to getting in shape and having fun, and it influences you to eat healthy, and to do outside excersizing like walking, swimming, running, etc. I'm also wanting to read a lot this summer, no matter how busy I am. It would be cool to read 10 books this summer. I'd be pretty proud of myself if I could get that much. I like to make lists...of course you close to me know that...and I have a list of books to read, and resently I've made a list of artists biography's I want to read, so I have to get crackin! Right now I'm working on "The Learners" by Chip Kidd. It's pretty good, but the chapters are really long. for a man that reads so many books because of his job, you would think his formatting would be better, but then again, I've only just started reading the book. It's already funny though. Chip Kidd's personality really shines through in his writing. I've put a new program up on my blogg. A friend of mine introduced me to it, it's like the visual book shelf on facebook, but I can link it to my blogg, so it makes it so much cooler!!! Now I just have to introduce more people to it so I can stalk thier reading habbits on here too...muah-ha-ha-ha! I love reading books and talking to other people about it...it's funny, because a few years ago I hardly read at all, then I don't know what happened...too many people around me were reading I guess, so I had to start too!
Any who...that's what my summer is consisting of. So, I hope everyone is going to be having a wonderful summer, full of awesome movies, and good books! reply to my posts! I love to hear your comments about my blogs and how I need to start reading over them before I post them!!! LOL!

Easter/D.C.


So, I haven't had much time to write...again...School has been so crazy, then working isn't helping much. This past weekend I went to Washington D.C., but before I talk about that, I have to talk about my awesome Easter! It all started when we realized easter was here... So of course we went home, it's a must of course, and this year I was going to eat like there was no tomorrow! Last year I got the flu, and...well...let's just say that wasn't fun...at all! So, we had a great weekend, we got to spend quality time with both families, but the best part was coming home. I have to say, I have the best friends ever. we came in, and there was some note about our very own easter egg hunt, and two envelopes...well, thunda started looking for eggs, so neither of us finished reading the directions, but when we called Mrs. DQ (after finding all the eggs, then reading the riddles in the envelopes which revealved where our prizes were) she informed us that there were two prize eggs that we were supposed to find first...so the hunt was on again! we had so much fun. It was the best Easter surprise I've ever had, and we had so much fun, wich we don't do a lot anymore either. So then we were told there was something upstairs for us, and it was a "note from the cats" and it was awesome! So, thank you Mr. and Mrs. DQ. You're the best! So, now onto my D.C. trip. I didn't want to come back. It was everything I wanted in a city. A good history, good museums that are free, and you can walk everywhere! The people were so kind, and around the mall, people respected it so much. there were people walking thier kids in strollers at 11p at night, and felt comfertable. I felt so safe. My favorite part was the Lincoln Memorial. People sat on the steps and just talked, and it was so amazing looking upon this great sculpture. How I long to be back there on those steps enjoying the gentle breeze on a warm summer night. It was beautiful. We ate at China town with my Chinese professor, which was fun. He ordered in Chinese, and told the hostess thier food sucked...classic...just his personality. We laughed about it later when he told us what he said. "This my first time...and this my last time". He really made the trip...something...:) My new favorite museum(s) is the Smithsonian. I could just live in one. I saw a Leonardo Da Vinci...yes, that's right, I damn near put my nose to the glass (and got yelled at by a gaurd for it...to my defense...IT'S BEHIND A FRIGGIN GLASS!). It was beautiful. Nothing short of spactacular. I also got to see Van Gogh, Renior, Matisse, Rodin (the thinker!), and so many more! OOh, and I saw the hope diamond! And Dorothy's shoes! It was so incredible. I don't think anyone really wants to listen to me rant, so I won't continue too much longer.:) We stayed in the Hotel Harrington, which at first seemed wierd, but it's actually pretty cool. It was built in 1917, and still has that kind of look to it. It was fancy!:) we were only there long enough to sleep really, but it was cool. My friend wants to open a bakery, so we made sure to stop at a bakery while we were there. A cup cakery actually, and it was incredible!!! Red Velvet was the name, and everything is home made, and delicious! So, I highly recommend! well, that's all the awesomeness for now, I really needed a good feeling, so I thought I should blogg about these two special weekends of mine. I hope they will always over power all the stress in my life, like now, when life is dumb...yeah... (fin)

Springish...

Geese, I have so much going on in my life, and so much to write about, but I just don't ever have the time to write! Isn't that how life always is, it's kind of like finally getting a job. You finally have money to do the things you never did because you were broke, but now you have no time to do them. Anyways...

I'm trying to find a new apartment. I think I'm not allowed to stay in one place for more than a year, because something always happens and me and Thunda decide to move. The landlord isn't doing a very good job about keeping down the partying or enforcing the parking rules, so we're getting fed up. One of our neighbors had a party last night, and someone threw my bike in the ditch, and my landlord didn't seem too concern. Well, I am, because who knows, one night they could decide to start throwing beer bottles...at our vehicles...that would not be good. I think me and Thunda are above all this, and I'm tired of putting up with it, and our landlord. We've also got a drip in our ceiling that we told the maintenance about, and our landlord got huffy about that...so I guess we just won't bother him about it again until the ceiling falls through.

I thought Spring was here, but in actaulity, Spring is having a fight with it's arch nemosis Winter. Sunday was beautiful, and warm...Tuesday it's snowing. Unbeleivable! Today is nice again, and I'm excited again, but I feel a little sceptical...I don't know if I can trust weather right now.

I finally got a call back at Wal-Mart, and I do my orientation tonight! yay! I'm really excited to get in there and start working, and start getting paychecks! In celebration of getting a new job I'm going to get an i-phone, so I'm so excited! I will miss my razor, but it's time to move on...

I have a lot of work for school right now, and it almost seems like too much. I got overwhelmed thinking about my resume, and the lack of things to put on it, that I was volunteering to do stuff that I didn't have the time for, so, I've given up on those things, told myself there will be time later, and now I'm just focusing on the neccessities. Since I am a Senior, I am participating in my art programs anual senior show, and that is a female dog! when putting stuff in a gallery, you always want to put your best foot foward, but this is like a coming of age kind of thing. There's a sophomore and a senior show. The sophomore show is like a free-for-all, and anything you want to put in it goes. The Senior show is juried, and only two of your pieces make it, and there's a chance to win money! I'm also doing a competition (one of those things I didn't give up) and so far, no one has entered, so I hope I win...there's money involved again.:) It's for the environmental club, so I guess no one really knows about it. Oh well, their loss...no one say a word!

I've decided what I'm going to do with my life. I've always wanted my own cafe, and at the beggining of this semester I expressed to Thunda how much I really wanted that sometime down the line. well, as the days passed, I kept coming up with good ideas for it. I couldn't stop thinking about it, so the goals became more real, and my original anticipated date to start slowly kept lowering. Well...I have to do a cover letter for my senior capstone, and I have to find an actual job to apply for...I couldn't find one. Nothing, nada to do with my art major, so...I decided to go ahead with my cafe. I give myself two years to get my stuff together (business proposals, name, etc. etc.) and I'm going to start my business. Until then, I'll find a random 9-5 job that all you need is a batchelors degree for, and I'll save save save, so...that's what I'm going to do! It'll be great, i can do my own art, and sell it, and cook, and eat, and be happy!

Easter is this weekend, and I'm excited to enjoy it! Last year I caught the flu and was sick as soon as I woke up that morning, and that's the day Thunda's family has Easter dinner, so I was miserable, and by myself praying to the porcelain gods...then Thunda got sick too...double wammy. This year, I've been taking my echanasia, and I've been going to bed early every night,so, this year... I'm eating my deviled eggs!!!

Well, I hope everyone elses lives are as crazy as mine! leave me some feed back, I love to read the comments from you guys!

Long time no write...

I have neglected this blogg so much! Life has been crazy, like usual, but now it's crazy because I'm working on preparing myself for the future!!! I have to build up my resume, I'm scheduling classes for my last semester of college! some really exciting things happening. This weekend, I'm working to get ahead of all my work because I've got a job at Wal-Mart, and I'm going to have less time to waste. Oh yes, I'm excited about the new job too! I miss having money! so anywho, I don't have much to say, but that I'm extremely busy, and I felt bad for not blogging in such a long time...my thunda kat will be graduating in just a few weeks, and I'm so excited for him! Spring has finally sprung! It's beautiful outside! I think it's supposed to rain, but I hope that it's sunny long enough this weekend that I can enjoy it! I love spring. I always thought I'd want to live in a place that was sunny year round, but I think I would miss the feeling I get when the snow goes away, and the spring comes...it's a great feeling. You can see it everyone's moods. well...anywho, everyone enjoy the sun, and be happy, and get excited about easter, and summer vacation!

Spring Break


So, I know it's been a while, and I have a lot to talk about, so I think I'm going to number my thoughts instead of writing them as one big book. It'll be easier to read that way. This past week as you all may know was spring break and my birthday! A lot of exciting things happened, and I'm sad it all had to end. Well, here we go!

1.) Thunda Kat took me to a few museums for my birthday; 21C, The Kentucky Museum for Arts and Crafts, and the Speed Art Museum. We had an awesome time, and he took me to lunch at The Hard Rock Cafe. 21C had to be my favorite of all! Everything had an artistic flair to it, including the bathrooms, which had two way mirrors, and videos in the mirrors. Me and Thunda got lost...appearently you can only use the elevators to go to the hotel, and you can't use the steps to go down, we ended up in the employee's break room. A nice fellow helped us back to where we needed to go. Getting lost I think was the best part! We do like to explore!

2.) Me and Thunda went home for about 5 days, which was nice. I don't get to see my family much anymore since I'm in my last days of collage, I'm so busy. My niece is getting so big, and she can talk so much! She loves Thunda, and I can't get in two words before she's asking where he is! I love her to death, and I love spending time with her. I also got to spend time with Thunda's family. His neices and nephew are getting so big! His nephew is almost as tall as me, and he's only 12!

3.) I have eaten so much cake in the last week, I am sick of it! Well... not really, I should be, but I'm not. I have eaten a lot though. We got to eat good the whole time we were home, it was great, but now I'm spoiled...I have to cook again. Oh well, I need to work off that cake! I had to walk 3 flights today in the art building, and I was so out of breath! It's all this food I'm packin'!

4.) Me and my Mom got to spend a lot of time together, which I really enjoyed. Me and my mom are best friends, and I miss her so much, especially now that the weather is nice, we always started walking together around this time, and though I haven't lived at home for a while, I still miss it. At my birthday party my ant (my dad's sister) was talking about how her and my grandmother couldn't go five minutes down the road without arguing, and I just thought, I couldn't imagine arguing with my mom. We get along so well, and,well, it's just a waste of time arguing everything to death.

6.) I've got a couple of new artists that everyone should listen to, I've been listening to them for a while, but a couple of thier songs played on my Pandora music station, and I thought I should share! One is a French artist named Yael Naim, and another is a british girl named Adele. They both have good soul songs, that make you wish you were strolling in the park in a beautiful spring day, and we should all have wonderful daydreams like that.

5.) Now that Spring break is over, my life is going to get wild and crazy! There's only about 6 weeks left of this semester, and I have a lot to do. It's nothing I could avoid, it's just how the spring semester always goes. I'm excited though, I have excited things happening for me, and I'm going to endulge in them all! So, everyone hold on to your seats, we are on the down sloap of this roller coaster of a semester!

Ahhh...Sunday...


So, it's Sunday night, and we had daylight savings (which blows) and I haven't done much of anything this weekend, so I'm sitting her thinking of the best ways to divide my time, so that I get everything finished. So, it's going to be another busy week, but hopefully not a stressful one. Ahhh...procrastination is fun. I made some bread for the week. It's the first loaf I've ever made, and it tastes so awesome!!! I can't wait till I can make more. It was so easy! Next time I'm trying wheat. So, I found out that MC Chris is releasing pre-orders for his next album midnight of March 16th...MY BIRTHDAY!!! So I'm trying to convince him to call me on my birthday (I'm on his message board) So, here's hoping he does...maybe he'll come and visit me or something...ask me out... I dunno...hehe...Just kidding thunda...maybe...Muahahaha! Seriously though, I hope he calls me. He's so cute. So my friend "C" receantly hit her 100th blogg, which is amazing!!! I think that is so fun celebrating it, she made this really cool picture and everything! I can't wait till I have hit my 100 blogg! I think I'm going to do the same thing, except I might start at 50, because that means I'm "over the hill". So, thanks C, that's an awesome idea! Everyone should read her blogg, it's awesome, and she has this awesome new nephew. He was born too early, but he's really strong, and he's fighting through everything. I know he's going to grow up being a strong man...and he's going to iritate the hell out of C...just because he can...and he's going to have C's personality...It'll be great! So, I'm really procrastinating on going to bed...it should only be 10:30p right now...not 11:30! I hate Spring foward...but I love spring!!! I'm in limbo...well, I think that's all for now...More bloggs this week, I promise! Go see Watchmen, it's awesome! (fin)

Lazy weekend


DQ took some pictures of my new tea kettle while it was boiling, so I decided to take some too! I love it, it's so awesome to watch the water boil from the side. My awesome Thunda got it for me, my last tea kettle rusted in the spout, so this one, I don't have to worry about it!
So, it has been a busy busy week! I was so glad when Friday finally came! I've finished Breaking Dawn finally. It was good, but wordy, I tended to get bored when I think her intentions were to make it suspenseful. I do wish she'd come out with a book about Alice though. She has such a mysterious back ground that I think it would serve as an incredible book! Alice is my favorite character...if you couldn't tell! Now I've started "A Lion Amongst Men". I already love the book, and I've just started.
Me and Thunda Kat have been trying to walk again. Now that it's warming up, we can walk outside. It's been really fun, we talk a lot, which I like because we get a lot of stress off our minds. I'd like to get sexy like Eva Longoria, she is a babe! Thunda Kat put her as his wallpaper because I have this awesome picture of Shia Labouf on mine. Hey, I had to have someone to look at while he was gone! So speaking of Eva the sexy, my new favorite show is desperate houswives. I watched it a bit when it first came out, but I got out of watching it...anyways, it comes on about 1p everyday on lifetime, and some days i get to come home during that time. It is great! The red headed lady is fysty! I love it! I want to be a saucy rich housewife...but of course I want my riches to be part of my hard work too, not just from my husband...honestly, what kinf of girl do you think I am!
Thunda's mom sent him home with a lot of groceries, and a lot of that consisted of cookies, and sweets, which I love, but I'm trying to be healthy! So we just had to get rid of all that!...by eating it all of course...we can't waste it. But...now that we are slowly ridding of all that stuff, I'm going to start watching what I eat...again...I'm so weak! chocolate and peanut butter together as a team is just hard to resist! They tag team me, I tell ya! Anywho...
I haven't even really noticed not having a job, I've been way to busy with school, which I have been greatful for. If I have too much time on my hands, I won't take advantage of it, I would just laze around and complain about not having a job. I've been able to focus on school, and try to be a good house-pookie. I'm trying to decorate more, and trying to keep the house cleaned, but that's easier than it sounds! You know, the weekend I was by myself, the apartment stayed so clean! I guess it's because I only had to clean up after myself.
So, Beetle Juice is on, and I absolutely love this movie!!! Adam and Barbera have the "life" I hope me and Thunda have one day. Our own business, a nice house with a lot of space inside and out. Everything is perfect, except of course for the whole dieing thing...but then again, that works out for them too, but I don't want to die of course, I don't know how good I would be at haunting, or at being stuck in the same place forever! I'd have to be able to go outside, and eat some sunlight! (we watched wife swap one night, and there was this crazy Vegan lady that staired at the sun for breakfast, and she got to live with some good ol Kentucky boys...it was a funny episode!)
So, I'm going to be selling my ceramics soon, so everyone(all four of you) be looking out, I'm going to be putting some of them online, so...tell your friends! That's all for now, sorry I've been so sketchy with writing, I'll try to write more often!

The Dizzy Dez show


I know it's been a while since I last wrote, so there's a lot going on, and I've decided to write this blog MC Chris style, and just list all the things going on, or that I've been thinking about...so on so forth...here we go
1. My boyfriend is out of town this weekend visiting his family. His grandpa went into the hospital the other day, he hurt his back and couldn't move, and wouldn't eat. He said he's feeling better, and looks better than he expected, so that's really good. Hopefully he'll get better, and we learn he can't go out and do yard work like he used to(that's how he hurt his back)! He just needs to let one of his young wipper snapper grandsons to help him. I know, I know, there's nothing wrong with an old man wanting to do things by himself, and not wanting to be babied, but he's 90... I think it's time to settle down!

2. I really miss my boy. He's my best friend that I have around 24/7. You can't beat that. I still have my Miss Kitty, she will always be my best friend, but she's married! She did come over and spend a while with me, which was awesome, we don't get to spend much time together, because I'm so dagon busy, then we both worked. It's been awful, but anyways, I miss Thunda's presence. I like to have my alone time, but it's wierd when you just know that no one is giong to walk through that door any time soon. Then the bed...we've been living together for going on 2 years now, and before that, we stayed together just about every night anyways, so it's hard to imagine sleeping without his warmth next to me. So, if anyone wants to volunteer to cover for him while he's gone, feel free to let me know!

3. My cat (the stoopid one) he wants the milk in my cereal even though it is obvious it's not "real" milk...he might like it though...it's vanilla! :P

4. I have so much crap to do, and I do not have the motivation to do it. I know it has to be the weather, I've got a clouded brain from the rain, and I'm all depressed and crap, that I can't focus! I just want to curl up in a ball and do nothing but sulk. My cats won't allow that though...they have to be comfertable when sulking...not me...
5. I've been reading Watchmen. I have to tell you, it is damn good! I barrowed the graphic novel from DQ, and I've also been watching the animated version online with my man. It's pretty good. I can't wait to see the movie, but then again I can, I'm always afraid that the movie is going to suck because I expect it to be just like the book, or in this case the graphic novel.

6. I'm still working on that damned Twilight book...I picked up another book to start when I finish Breaking Dawn, but the chapters are so long!!! This woman is so long winded, and she tries to make things suspensful, but I just get annoyed. My next book is A lion Amongst men...i know, I told Thunda that I would finish this other book I started (I've been working on two, but one I have to get from the library, and they only have one of...Monsters of Templeton btw...)then I would read WWZ, the book about the stories of the zombie appocalypse...I started to read it, and it's good, but I had to stop so I could finish reading all these other books I have going one! I can hardly keep up with life, so why the hell am I trying to read three books! I don't know, it's madness!

well, I don't have much else to say tonight...it's late, and I do have to get up early...so, sorry...that's all you get for now!!! (stay tuned for next weeks episode)

Exciting Times Ahead


Well, Goody's will be closing next Wed. Like usual, they didn't tell us anything until the last moment. Isn't it wonderful. At first I was really angry, but now I'm just like "whatever". I don't care, and at this point what does it matter. I'm going to make myself not worry about not having a job and look at the positive side of things like, I'm going to have time to devote to my art. I'm going into the business of selling my ceramics, and now I'll have the time to produce more work, and to make them more creative. I'll also have time to devote to myself, which I don't get a lot. I just don't get time to my self at all. The drive to and from work is the only time I'm alone to think, and normally I'm too busy nagging at the stupid drivers. I love hanging out with my thunda Kat (before he starts getting all huffy about me wanting my alone time) I just like to have some time to myself sometimes. I do my best thinking, and cleaning, and I do my best relaxing sometimes when I'm all by my self...(now that song will be stuck in my head....yay) So, yeah, I'm trying to be positive, that job wasn't the greatest job anyways. It didn't pay good, and the company demanded so much out of one person, I'm kind of glad to be getting the chance to look for new opportunities.

So, it seems like spring is fighting the good fight, it snowed like crazy the other day.(ugh...)but now it's starting to warm up, and the sun has been out...it has been awesome!! I can't wait for summer...and even more, I can't wait to graduate. There's a lot of exciting things coming in my life. The flower by the way is one of the flowers me and thunda Kat planted a couple of years ago. It's one thing I miss most about living at home was the land and space we had. We grew tomatoes, and green onions, and cat nip, but only the sunflowers, and tomatoes made it, but we were so happy for even that. It was my first garden. I remember when he bought me the seeds, and the tomatoe plant. It was summer break, and I was home sick from work with strep throat, and he surprised me with everything. I got up and helped as much as I could with planting everything. I was so excited. I can't wait for more exciting times like that!!!!
Well, that's all I can purge from this overworked brain for now!

V-Day


So...I had an amazing Valentines weekend!! I dressed really cute, and me my man chilled at home. I cooked an awesome candle lit dinner, followed by a romantic tea drinking session. I made oragami hearts with little notes in them (yeah, I'm proud of myself!) and decorated the table with them. He got a homemade card...I know, I'm such a doll! Then we played Mario Kart on the Wii, which was nice, it's one of our favorite games, but we never get to play much anymore. Then we read "The Tales of Beedle The Bard", which is another thing we don't do often, we used to always read books together, and outloud, it's so fun, that's how we read "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". We also watched Friday the 13th because I needed to catch up before watching the new one. It's been since I was a kid the last time I'd seen the original.
That was yesterday. It was great, I've been working my butt off at work this whole week, and it was worth it because I got both Saturday and Sunday off. My boyfriend (thunda Kat) he made me this awesome heart necklace, and he bought me some MC Chris shwag...awesome! The greatest part was just hanging out with my dude. He took me to see the new Friday the 13th movie, and it was pretty good. It's still strange how they incorporated three movies into one, but it was pretty good. Oh, and I cooked an awesome breakfast...
Now that I've had this awesome weekend, I don't want the week to start. I love getting to spend time with Thunda. Now that I'm working , that seems to be all that I do, and we don't get to spend quality time together. He graduates a semester earlier than me, and he'll hopefully have a good job lined up, but we'll be apart for a couple of months. I know that's not long for some people, but in five years, the longest we've been apart has been less than a week. We're best friends, and I don't know what I'm going to do without him. But, I know that it's what we have to do, he has to take any oppurtunity he can get with the way the economy is, he can't wait. I'm so happy for him though, I know he'll do great in anything he wants to do, and I hope he gets something that makes him happy.
So, in a nut shell, I'm glad I got to spend time with him , it was well desearved. So, to my pookie...I love you and thanks for making our 5th Valentines Day wonderful. It had to of been the best so far. Let's continue to have great days, and great weekends like we had today and this weekend. I love you!

Manic Monday


Mmmm...So, past couple of days have been crazy, I've done nothing but work so I am w-o-r-n o-u-t, Worn Out! Work is so boring though, it's so crazy busy, that you can't do anything! So we just walk around, try to straighten up stuff, but as soon as you turn around, BAM! customers swarm in like a cyclone and rip it to shreds. I think they get off on it too, because they will watch you cleaning, then follow you, and as you leave a nice straightened rack...BAM!...they mess it up. So what do I do? I ignore them and daydream. So, I think it would be really cool if they came out with a movie about retail kind of like the movie Waiting, except it would be a clothing store...and not a resturaunt...It would be AMAZING! I could totally act in the movie too...I've got retail experience, so I can act out senerios, I'll just bring back these good ol' memories... So I get Saturday off...I'm going to sleep...and sleep...and...oh yeah, sleep. MC Chris is selling a bunch of cool stuff still. I wish I had money I'd buy some more of his stuff, because he needs to eat! And he's so darn cute! Thunda cat gave me some of my gifts for V-Day early...some MC stuff, we're so upsessed with him! He's just so awesome though, I feel like we're already friends.:) well, that's all my brain can reproduce for you guys...Manic Mondays...gotta love to hate them! (Fin)

Take a Hike, and Don't Forget the Trail Mix!!!


So...today has been great. Have you ever had one of those days, that everything you think about excites you, and you just feel like a kid waiting for Christmas...well, I find myself feeling that way about everything I've thought about and looked at, or listened to...yeah, I don't know why, but it's a great feeling being excited about life. Maybe it's because the sun has come back, I'm getting my vitamin D(ez)...sorry, I thought it would be funny to call vitamin D vitamin Dez... I did palates the other night, and I am so sore! I used to do palates every night, and I used to walk everyday...man I was so healthy!!! Now I'm in this slump, but I think with all this vitamin Dez, I'm going to start feeling better. I normally love to work out. It's so good for your body, you have a lot of energy, and it's good for your mind and soul, I tell ya! I always feel at ease after I've had a good work out. I put in my ear buds, turn up the jams, and I just walk until my little hearts content(well, unless I'm at the wellness center, then that ends after 30 minutes...gotta share now!) Me and Thunda haven't been going to the gym. With all the snow, and the freezing temperatures, the past two weeks have been so crazy! My whole schedule has been out of wack man, but I think this weekend will get us back on track...hopefully...
So...some things I got excited about...

The sun is out, and it's 54 degrees

I seen a picture of the Eifel Tower, and thought "how amazing it'll be when I finally get to go to Europe

Not one song on my Pandora is getting on my nerves (sometimes pandora will play all the wrongs songs...and won't get the hint!) It's playing a good variety, instead of just one genera, which is awesome!
I ate some chili for lunch, and it was so good!!! I wolfed it down man...mmm...

I have it set up on my facebook to show pictures from my picasa, so I'm excited about putting more albums on there for my friends to look at. this is so awesome because facebook takes forever to load pictures, and I make albums, or seperate pictures into albums as soon as I load them from the camera, so I feel it's a bit redundant...you know!
I want to design today...I've been seeing a lot of interesting graphic designs, and I keep getting ideas...now all i need to do is get them on paper!

Me and Thunda Kat are making trail mix...we're on this big MC Chris kick, and one of my favorite illustrations by him is where he's got a hiker smaking his forehead and in a thought bubble has a bag of trail mix (coming from one of his lyrics from "Hijack")so we've been saying that all day...and it made us want trail mix...amazing!
oh, and we're eating pizza!!! Pizza on Fridays are amazing, who wouldn't get excited about that!
Anywho...I don't know what else has been making me excited, but the excitement keeps coming double dose!

Anywho(again?)...I told yous guys the blog today would be better!!! Hope you enjoyed...

blah blah blah...and stuff


It's been another weird week. We had a snow day, which was amazing, I did absolutely nothing!!! But, I prolly should have been working on my school work, but I didn't. I've still been a bit stressed lately, but the thing that stresses me out the most I think, is the fear I won't have the time to do everything. I always feel like everything has to be planned out in advanced, but with work and school, nothing is set in stone. I should be looking at this semester as something exciting. I have money, which I never have, I'm doing some awesome stuff in my classes, and I'm going on some pretty awesome trips to see different art museums and such. I think my brain is so fogged with thoughts of what I'm going to do when I get out of collage, I'm having a hard time consentrating on the now. I guess I'm so wrapped up in preparing my self financially, so I'm not poor and...stuff...anyways....MC Chris has the most awesome VLogs ever!!!(Video Bloggs) I just watched his latest one, and it's red Thursday....everyone should watch it, and everyone should spend money on him. Any who...I'm tired...I think that's all for tonight...sorry....It'll be better tommorow... (Fin)

Happy Endings, Hello Happy Begginings


My sis got married this weekend. It was really fun. It was a very intimate wedding, and I really enjoyed it. We had a lot of stress building to Saturday, but I have to say, I am really happy she went through with it. I love her so much, and wish her and her hubby the best...
SO...now on to the funny stuff...
(dream sequence)

My sis found this chapel, and it had a descent website (better than some of the other ones, let me tell ya') and it was a good price, and a beautiful set up. They had pictures of the outside and they had a beautiful alter, fountain...the whole shabang! So, we get up, get ready, we leave. We get there, and it's someones house, and he didn't even try clearing the driveway from the wicked ice storm we had earlier in the week, so we step out onto the ice skating rink(and I had on my pumps btw...fun), and this guy opens the door and proceeds to tell us, the chapel is down the stairs around the house...but this is what he really meant..."go down the icy path(imagine an old croons voice), then you will get to a fork in the road where the monster lives, fight him and only if you survive will you continue on to the next level...yeah, that's how it went down, we braved ourselves (me in my PUMPS) down the icy steps, marveled at the outside alter, and fountain/pond thing, then stepped into the...basement. It was a den, with a pin pong/pool table, and bar (not stocked btw). So, my sis was feeling a bit weary, and a bit pissed because she asked numerous times for pictures of this "chapel", oh and I forgot to tell you that he (the reverend) was already down stairs when we got there...you apparently could go through the house, but we had take the path less traveled.(he was the monster at the end of the path :)) So, he gives us (the ladies) a room, and the groom got a bathroom. The room we were in was one of his offices, and it had some pretty interesting things...I took pictures. He had many certificates (I asked my sis after we seen the place if she wasn't sure he got certified off the Internet...) but he was really certified it seemed. He was apparently a little of everything; Jewish, catholic, he was a psychologist, and probably a lot of other stuff. He had this awesome book called "How to be a Jewish Mother" and apparently they are trained in giving guilt. there is a right and a wrong way of doing it. He also had this amazing painting, which I also thought was weird considering he was all "Holy" but hey, I guess that doesn't mean he's not cultured.
So, we got ready, and her father gave her away. She dropped the ring after I joked about me not being a capable of being a good Maid of honor because I'm good at dropping stuff...Hilarious! It was amazing! And the priest/reverend/priest/rabbi forgot the words and the end (you know...the whole "you may now kiss the bride" part).I know it's not how a lot of people would do a wedding, but, it was so my sister. She was beautiful...Of course I was her stylist. We had a good time. The preacher/priest/reverend/Rabbi told us to "go party, and to "remember Jesus loves parties"...yeah, that was weird.
...We went out to eat, and "Mom" gave sis some lingerie (oooh...) without the bottoms because she said she didn't need them (yeah, she's great) then gave the new hubby some bikini like underwear...hilarious still. In all, for a wedding that was planned in two weeks, I think it went great. I am so happy for my sis, and I know their marriage will be awesome! Yay happy endings!!! Hello happy beginnings!!!

So long and thanks for all the fish

Winter is still going strong. All week has been crazy with classes being canceled, and work being closed early because of the weather being so bad, but I've got to say, I am damn lucky.My boyfriend's (thunda Kat) parents had no electric or water this week from the crazy blizard. They of course are very intelligent people and had the means to survive. Now, I'm sure there was a time that they went through something like this and weren't prepared, but it got me and Thunda thinking, if that was us, we would be freakin' out man! We've got nothin'. Not even a flash light. We've got candles, but we've taken out the wicks since we use the pretty scented candles on a candle warmer...that's not going to produce anything...not even smell good, because you have to plug that thing in! Imagine if this was the zombie Apocalypse...OMG, we'd be the first dead...well, maybe not, we do have that machete...anyways, the point is, we're sitting dumb fat and happy when we need to be prepared!!!
So, we're going to start keeping that stuff around the house, but I'm already paranoid that we're going to wake up with no electric or something...HOW WILL I BLOG!!! MADNESS!!!
I started to continue on the Twilight book. It's pretty good, but some of it feels a bit forced...almost too predictable. I don't know, it's still good, but after the first and second book she wrote, I think the series lacks in comparison. I still don't know what team I play for...the sexy "perfect man" vampire, or the sexy, likes to fight back, probably be hot in bed (lol because his temperature is always high...yeah whatever) Indian wolf...hmmm...In this book, I'd have to say Jacob, because he's not being such a big baby about the situation, he's being strong, whereas Edward is all whiny, and the mind reading thing is annoying, do we have to refer to it every other sentence! I guess I'm biased though because me and my sis love Indian (in the native American sense) men, and have always oggled over them, and talked about how we wanted "one of them, mama can I have one please!!!" We even had this calender, I don't know where she got it, full of Indian men without shirts, being all sexy! I think I still have a picture from it...hmmm...memories...I'm sure she's going to get a kick out of me telling all her secrets, especially right before she gets married.LoL.
Time seems to be going by fast for me today...why is that! I just want this day to last forever. Tomorrow I have to work, which it won't be bad, but I haven't had to work all week, so I've been a bit spoiled. I guess it's time to start back on that crazy schedule. It's been nice cabin fever, but, I think I'm ready to say so long to you! I don't like the snow, although the mountains look beautiful all covered in white...I just don't want it around anymore. So, I say Snow...Hit the road Jack, and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more...
Yeah, I talk about the most random crap in my blogs. During the day, I think of all these awesome philosophical things to talk about, but, my brain is fried, and I forget. But, DQ gave me the idea of carrying around a little notebook so I can jot down my ideas, or even write out the blog, then come back and type it up. So, you may be reading some more coherent things here soon...but then again, there is nothing coherent about my thinking, so rewind that, strike that...you might be reading some more interesting stuff here in the future...
So long and Thanks for all the fish

Finally Getting My Cabin Fever Bliss

So, today was another very snowy day! I didn't have to work because the snow and ice is so bad, which is awesome. I've spent the day with my man, and it's been fun. It was really nice, because we don't get much free time together to just shoot the breeze, and laugh, and Thunda Kat isn't very talkative most of the time, so normally we sit and watch T.V. which gets boring after a while.
I made these awesome cupcakes with strawberry icing, they are so good!
I played guitar hero, it's been a while, so I was a bit rusty, but still awesome!!! I love video games, but I never have the time to play. I can't wait for the day when I have a nice job that gives me weekends off, and evenings, and I can do my little hobbies like video games, and sewing, and reading!! Right now I'm in the middle of three books...Three books!!! I just can't find the time to read at all! When I do have the time, normally I convince my self to do something productive like homework, or house work, or sleep...mmm...sleep. Anyways, I just can't wait. Of course I will have more bills to pay, but oh will it be worth it!!
So, one book that I am balls deep into is "The Monsters of Templeton". At first I didn't like it too much, I thought it was a bit boring, but once you get into the pattern of the book, it is awesome! I stopped reading it, because the library wouldn't let me check it out anymore, so, I began the last book in the "Twilight" series. I know, I know, Twilight is getting so annoying, but honestly, the books are pretty good. Although the books are good, I can't bring myself to finish this last book, I don't know why, I just don't like it as much as the other ones. Anyhow, I'm also reading "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", and that book I haven't actually started to read yet, but it's one that I'm wanting to read when I have a few hours to knock out. My sis said it only took her about an hour to read it, but she's a power reader, fo sho!
I'm really glad I have gotten these couple of days off. First of all, I'd really hate to have to drive in this crap at night, and secondly, I really needed the time to just breathe! I was able to think, and to clear my foggy brain, and to do a bit of some stuff I enjoy, like blogging, and baking, and here in a minute, reading ( yeah, that Twilight book needs to be read). I surfed the net for useless crap, but it's been so awesome!!!
I'm thinking after I finish these books, I'm moving on to my comics. I have a stack that my friends have given me, and I think it'll be easier to read a chapter in a comic than it would in a book. Plus, our local comic book store shut down a couple of months ago, so I'm feeling a little out of touch. Thunda Kat really started something with me when he introduced me hard core into the world of comics...I crave them!!! (Need...Comics...[zombie]).
So...yeah...that's enough of my random blogging. I need to publish this thing so Thunda Kat stops reading over my shoulder!!!

Tuesday, January 27, 2009

So, things are a little stressful for me right now, which you can probably tell by the posts I have been writing...that's a joke, because I haven't written any...for those at home following along. I have school, then work, and my best friends wedding to get ready for, then on top of that, bad weather. So, I'm about crazed right now. Today was nice though, we had a snow day...yes I said it snow day!!! In the four years I've been going to this University, we've never had one, and it was awesome. Poor Thunda Kat, he shoveled the hill our apartment complex is on. He made DQ help, then eventually some of the other guys in the complex came out to help. They did an awesome job, but he was so tired, he didn't really get anything done other than that.
Any how, I'm surviving, but my health is not benefiting from all of this. I've been a little sick to my stomach a lot this week, which sucks, but you know what, next week, all the snow will be gone, my sis will be finished getting married, and I'll probably have a light schedule at work since I had such a hectic one this week. So now all I have to do is survive this week!!! Oh no...
On a happier note, I got my house clean because I thought I was serving hot chocolate to the snow plows, but then someone elses girlfriend beat me to it (what...I had to clean my living room so they could come in and get warm. That bitch didn't even let them in, she brought it to them, and I heard it was watery...yes I am bitter) I did have two loyal fans come in and try mine, and they said it was much better...I hope they didn't lie to me, because I KNOW KARATE! I also got my sis' garter finished, it looks funny to me, but then again, I am my worste critique.
Now, I am procrastinating on working on a paper, where I do get to be a critique and I get to talk about someone elses work. I wouldn't mind it so much, but I have to make a copy for everyone in my class to read...I hate that crap! But, I guess as an artist, I need to get used to displaying my ideas, and work, I just hate the attention.
Well...I used everyone's new nicknames...like em'???? I started this blog with "So" again...oh well, I think I like it. I'm off to write an amazing critique!!!

Sleepy Sloth!

Not much has happened today. I went to class, then home for five minutes, then to work. Man, you know part time work is rough especially when you have late classes. I hope minimum wage will keep steadily rising. It's like getting a raise from the U.S. of A.
So, in the past week at the Goods, we have put up signs saying "Now Closing" and "everything must go" . There's even this giant banner outside that's like a mile long (yes miss Kitty, I've finally seen it...yeah, I don't know how I missed it either). The customers keep getting smarter and smarter every day too. Not only do we have this large banner, that can be easily missed btw, but we have hundreds of bright yellow and red signs claiming the going out sell. Well, I had this customer seriously ask me..."Are Yaw'll going out of business?!!!" I couldn't help but to stare at her for a hard minute, as the customer I was checking out starts to chuckle. I just said "yeah" even though she opened it up to so many smart ass remarks, that I am so good at handing out! It's amazing the brilliance.
I don't know what's going on this week, but I have been so tired! I haven't heard of anyone having the flu or anything, that was a couple of weeks ago when that epidemic was going around, but I did have a co-worker have a head cold, and more recent development she had fever.(from reliable sources) so I'm getting into my paranoid state. I hate sickness. I don't know any one that does like it, but I'm obsessed with preventing my self from getting sick. I know I'll be fine, but I'm always scared and stressed about it! I know, I'm a weirdo, but it's prolly not as wierd as some of the things you guys do!!! Anyhow, I took echinacea, and I'm going to bed early, so everyone better be prepared for a peppy, excited, feeling 100% Eileen Kingswood!!!(A.k.A Pookie, Dizzy Dez, Choc-o-late thunda)
Well, my stoopid kitty wants attention, and I can't help but to drop everything and give it to him, because though he may be special(Ed) I can't resist the cuteness...Didn't go to the gym by the way...

Happy Inauguration Day

Well well well...(hah! didn't start with "so") Borack Obama is now the president. I'd have to say I'm pretty happy. I hope he turns this economy around, and that we all come together as a nation and succeed together. It'll be great! I'm really glad I've had the prevalage to be alive during such a historical event. It's really cool. Then again...I guess it was historical when Bush was elected too, you know with the whole Florida recount mess...hmmm...oh well, that's over with now! YAY!
Anyhow, for now life is still crazy. I'm still adjusting to working and taking classes at the same time. Me and my boyfriend have been trying to go to the gym in the mornings, and for a week we did great, but lately I've been too worn out to do anything! We're tying for tomorrow, so I guess you'll know if we didn't go. Another thing that has been holding us back has been the snow. We have had snow out the butt! I can't believe it. Today it snowed all day, but it didn't stick, it melted, so that's not good, because during the night it freezes! I just really can't wait for summer. I miss the sun so hard core. I'm having withdraws. Oh, and my cat (the stoopid one) he's decided that he wants to be an outdoor cat, and everytime he hears the door, he bolts outside, then he just stands under one of our cars. well, he decided to try something new today. My friend was over, and I got a package, so he of course ran out the door. So my friend decided to help me out and get him for me, well, that's when stoopid pulled his new trick, he jumped up into the truck, where, I'm not quite sure, but all I could hear from my friend was muffled cursing and "how did you get there?" or "God blessed cat come here!" ooh and my favorite "you little hellspawn". I am forever greatful to him. I called him Mr. Incredible, and was talking to him like the little old lady from the movie. So, to my "Mr Incredible" thank you so much for your service. You are greatly appreciated, but please don't start running around in spandex, or with your underwear over your pants...
Well, I've been telling everyone I was going to give them code names for my bloggs. As you can tell I don't give names, because I just don't want some weirdo knowing all my friend's names alright! So...names:
My boyfriend: thunda cat
My sister: Miss Kitty
My sister's fiance/my friend/soon to be brother-in-law: DQ(blizzard)
Me: Eileen Kingswood( I know, that it's pimp!)

And there you have it. I hope everyone is enjoying my "bloggs", because I'm really enjoying writing them. I'm still trying to get comfertable in putting all my feelings out there in the open, so you might notice me loosen up a bit the more I write. Well, hope everyone survives the snow...

Wedding Dates

So ( I always start with "So") My best friend is getting married in two weeks. She's always wanted to be married, whether she'll admit it or not. She wasn't one of those girls with the whole wedding planned since she was 10, but it has been something she's always wanted. Well, with her getting married, it seems like that's all I hear, and I'm the only one that really knows that she's getting married in two weeks, but that's all I've heard today since she's told me, everyone has asked me "when are you and your boyfriend getting married?" I mean really, I've had quite a few people ask me today. Well more than usual by random friends, normally it's just my mom and grandma nagging me about it. Any how, here's the thing; me and my boyfriend have been together for going on five years, and in that time, I've gone through many fazes of wanting or not wanting marriage. At some points I was almost impatient, and wanted him to "shit or get off the pot" if you will. But then I've been on the complete other end of the scale, and I in no way shape or form wanted to marry him, or be married at all. Well, now I'm at a point in my life where that doesn't matter to me at all. All I'm worried about right now is getting my career and living life to it's fullest. Me and my boyfriend may be apart some time in the future, with me having to go an extra semester, and he'll probably have a job, then there's the chance that I decide to go away for grad school? So, right now I'm focused on doing good in school, and getting over this next hump in our relationship, which is long distance. I'm proud to say we've been together through it all, we've worked it out, and we're still here, but for now, I'm going to let life work itself out, and I'll be patient, and until we get to that point in our relationships, I'm going to take advantage of opportunities. But I am still excited for my friend. We've been friends for a long time, and she deserves the happiness that is coming to her. I mean, she does have me, I'll make sure she's happy or else!
And that's all I got to say about that...
So, me and my boyfriend got some decorating done! YAY! He cleaned for me, and then we got a lot of pictures of our family hung, and a little extra stuff. It still needs a little work, but I'm thinking it feels a bit more cozy all the time. I still have to make curtains.

Well, I am enjoying my MLK Day. Classes were canceled, which is awesome! I still have work, but at least I don't feel overwhelmed like I do on a normal weekday. It's been nice having this weekend to do my own projects, because I'm going to be loaded down with projects after projects, and reading. People think that being an art major is easy, but it's really not. It's fun, but it's very time consuming. Everyone just remember that...or else!

Well, time to start the day, and get ready to fight the customers at Goody's.

Adventures in Decorating

Well, as you may know, I've had a crazy week, that actually hasn't been the greatest. Well, today made up for all of that madness, which I'm glad, because I really want these bloggs to be funny and uplifting, which maybe if someone reads these they may feel uplifted in the sense that they are glad someone else shares their sarrows. Well anyways, I decided today that I wanted to decorate my apartment. I got to go into our neighbors apartment, and it looked like something out of a magazine! So, I'm thinking, I have the tools, and I'm creative, I can jazz up this place,. So me and my boyfriend got on those internets, and started by looking for some ideas for our walls. We really need some good art work (that's not my own) to put up, and I'm a big fan of Georges Suerat. I love pointalism, I've done my own paintings in pointalism, and he's just awesome. So we're looking, and I'm thinking, I wish we could just go to a Michaels, you know they always have good poster reprints of good art, so my boyfriend says why don't we. See, we go to a collage that doesn't have much. We have Wal-mart...and that's about as exciting as it gets. I am proud to say that we are not from here, and that we are from the city! Any how, we got up, got ready, and made our way to big city Lexington. And let me tell you, it was awesome! We didn't have a lot of money to spend, but it was nice to look around, and just spend some quality time together. He paid for gas, and I paid for dinner at our favorite resturaunt Qdoba's. Then we came home and ate ice cream.
So, we didn't get to be decorators today, but while we were at Michaels though we didn't see any posters worth buying and framing, I did get a few small canvases. I'm going to paint something cool to put on our walls(I love to paint). Tomarrow we are going to continue our adventure in decorating though, and I am so excited about it because we thought of a lot of good ideas on the way to and fro. I was telling my boyfriend on the way back from Lexington, that life is so exciting when you have the motivation to do things, and the ideas are flowing freely. It's awesome, and let me tell you, I'm really lucky to have such an awesome boyfriend to share all this excitement with. I couldn't imagine life without him. He's funny, he has awesome ideas, awesome interests...he's just great! And to top off a great day, I found out that I don't have to work tomarrow...
(...to be continued)

Can I have some of your cabin fever?

Well, today MC Chris posted a blog about how he was surviving cabin fever (which by the way, I think he's doing pretty good) well, today, I had no time for cabin fever.  First thing this morning our pipes froze...AGAIN! Yeah, that's right, that last time it got below zero, our pipes froze, and busted.  See, where we live in apartments, if everyone doesn't chip in by dripping the fossets, we all pay for it.  well, our maintanance guy was supposed to insolate the pipes, but what he did was wrapped the pipes only in the place it buste, and put insolation only in those areas(band-aid solution), obviously leaving room for other parts of the pipes to freeze, and possibly burst again.  
We found out that the pipes were frozen when I got up to get ready for work...I called everyone, and the only person I could get ahold of was the maintanace mans wife, who is a certified space cadet.  She just talked about useless crap, didn't seem to understand how much we didn't want our apartment flooded, again, so I hung up on her.  Finally we got ahold of the landlord, and the apartment manager (his mother-in-law), and he got ahold of the maintanance dude to turn off the water.  Me and My boyfriend had to take showers at the apartment managers house, which was wierd because it's set up for disabled old people, so there was a seat in the shower, like the ones that's at the pool.  It was just a strange and fustrating morning.  Now we finally have water.  hopefully tonight everyone will leave a drip, but if they don't...oh they don't want to know.

So, during all of this me and my boyfriend had classes, I got a short break, in which I played a little guitar hero to blow some steem, then I was scheduled to work at Goody's at 3p, and I got out of class at 2:50...So, I had to pick up a crappy meal at McDonald's (they gave me a rancid tomato) and go straight to work until 10p.  So it's been a long, long, long day.  And work sucked, because I work in the men's department, which I absolutely love, men are great, they hate to shop, therefore they don't hang around.  What I don't love is the fact there's only three people that work in the department. period.  and one of them doesn't do anything when she works, and just so happens she worked yesterday...and the department was an abomanation!  I have a lot of tables that normally have folded shirts or jeans on them, but today, they were tables with piles of clothes, nothing was folded.  So, by the end of the night, it didn't look like I got anything done, and my department looked like crap, which for anyone that works retail knows how much that sucks, and I think about it a lot, because what I don't get done, gets left for someone else tomarrow, and I hate that more than anything.  I feel that your shift is only as good as the person that worked before you makes it.  Meaning, if they left you a heaping pile of crap to clean up, it makes your  shift harder because you have to do your work, and thier work.  Good ol' Dominoe effect.  Anyhow, so I can't help to think how bad I feel for the guy that has to work tomarrow, because I left him with stuff to do.  Life goes on I guess.  

Now I'm home, I've finally winded down, and I'm glad today is over!  

I welcome the cabin fever...as long as I have running hot water...and video games.

A little Refection of my week

So there's a lot going on for me this week, I started classes, got a work study, and I'm still at Goody's. I've finally gotten all my schedules worked out, but now I have to work out other things like life for example. I have no idea when I'm supposed to study (I guess now would be a good time...)then I'm having a hard time having a social life. I forgot a friend's birthday yesterday, and I felt horrible! I know I know, Facebook would've let me know, but I don't have much time to go on, but it would've been a good reminder. Anyways, I really think the root of my problems is money. I don't know why the government just doesn't print some more so we can just stop having all this problem. The system is flooded with money. There's no way to keep track of all of it, so I know there's no way money is still backed up by gold anymore. think about it; all those old farts that sit around and count all there dollar bills that they've been putting under their matress because they're afraid of another great depression, there's no keeping up with that. Once they decide to go to Goody's and spend all thier money because they're having this amazing going out of business sell (that's a complete joke if anyone's reading this, because you're not getting a deal anymore at Goody's) the system gets flooded. So US government....can a bum a $20.
Sorry to that friend who I forgot your birthday...I'll try to never do it again

what did I do today?

So, I like writing these bloggs.  They help me reflect on the day I have, make fun of all it's short comings, and enjoy the memories of the good things that happened. Well, as I sit down here to begin to write about my day...I don't feel like I have anything to say.  So, I'm going to have to remenence...well, the day started at the gym, me and my boyfriend are going to the gym every morning around 6:30.  I like going to the gym, but I'm so out of shape, the little skinny girls that that get on the tredmill next to me and start running a million miles an hour make me mad.  When I got back I had loads of energy, I cleaned my kitchen...hmmm...today was a bit of a blur, it went by so fast.  I took some pictures at the library that were pretty cool, I'll probably posts those soon.  Maybe it's the weather, (it's cold gloomy and snowy)  nothing in this day really stuck out to me.  Oh, well, one of my cats ( the stoopid one) has decided he wants to be an outdoor kitten. So, he ran out on me twice, and I know he's going to be messed up in the head for this, but I had to lure him with Kitty snacks, then I'd snatch him up and throw him back in the house.  He's going to be so confused the next time we're giving him a treat.  I think my other cat (the Diva) tricks him into this stuff though, because she doesn't like him.  
Well...sorry this post was so boring, but I'm worn out from this appearently busy day I had (even though it just seems mediocre now).

That's Life

So, I'm in my senior year of collage, I was supposed to graduate this semester, but, I changed my majors status from having a major and a minor to having just a concentration in Art. Oh well! I'm trying to make the best of it. Right now things are a little hectic for me though. I've been working for Goody's since the end of last semester, and now they're going out of business, so, it's crazy with mobs of customers, and a lot of people have quit, so the few of us still hanging on, are barely hanging on. On top of that, I've started a work study, and I'm trying to get that schedule worked out so it doesn't interfere with me getting the hours at Goody's, and I have a pretty demanding school schedule. I'd have to say I haven't stressed like this in a while. I think I stress the most because now that I've had this job for a while, I've been paying all the bills, and my boyfriend has actually gotten to take a break from doing all the supporting, and it feels great! I don't like to be dependent on someone else, but before I had this job, my boyfriend paid most all the bills, and I could only help when I got refund checks from school, which I would pay a few months, but that's still not as much as he's done. there's still groceries, and gas. Any how, I'll survive, but until Goody's closes, I hope I can find a better job, that pays more, so I can survive!
On the positive side: I'm alive and healthy, and me and my boyfriend are going on 5 years together...5 YEARS!!! We live in this awesome apartment, and I have two awesome cats, and I have a great family. I may be going through some tuff times, but that's life, and it'll get better.

So, there it is! My first entry on my new blog site! I'm learning HTML (my awesome boyfriend is teaching me) so my site will start looking awesome soon!!!
