Quick Update

Unemployed. Back in school. Got dumped. Long story that I am usually very bipolar about. Some days I understand, other days I don’t…and I am really bitter, resentful and cynical on the days I don’t. Most of the time I try and keep myself busy enough to trick myself into not caring, but on the days I fail the following quote seems to apply:

“Every time I’ve ever believed in a happy ending I’ve gotten severely f**ked.”

…which is a shame, considering how much I know I have to offer someone who wants to be with me.

Anyway, I’m going to be pathetic and wait for him to weed through his shit. I’m going to (try to) keep the hope and faith, and if all the BS talk we made of “soul mates” and “fate” is true for us then we’ll end up back together.

Blah, blah, blah.

Where to Begin?

It has been quite a while since I last blogged and a lot has happened since then…which is usually the case, isn’t it?  I have been wanting to write but just haven’t been in the mood lately…so I will keep it short and sweet.

Went to Seattle for a week at the end of June to visit Nathan and Emilie and had a blast.  Played a lot of Rock Band.  Missed being there.  Weather was awesome.

Fallen in love with man from previous post.  Better yet, he loves me back.

My dad died while I was in Seattle and I didn’t know it until days after.  I have had a lot on my mind about this but I don’t really want to write about it much.  It’s been almost a week since we buried him, so I am really at a loss for words right now.

So I’ll leave it at that.

I’m in Ohio right now visiting Jim.  Not sure if it was the best time to come here after all the stuff in the last week has happened but it was a trip that was already paid for and time off work was approved so hey, might as well.

So that can be it for now.  Having fun.

New Layout

I am totally digging this new layout. I think it’s even made me want to blog more. See! I am blogging about the new layout – what has the world come to? I haven’t had enough coffee today and I totally forgot that I had a girl’s night out tonight at 7. I have a feeling I might become plastered. Hopefully not too plastered…I would like to do a little more on my Saturday night besides drink and pass out. So this is my promise to not drink too much! Oh goodness, if I drunk dial please don’t hold it against me.

Right now I’m watching Bridezillas on my lunch break. Funny stuff. My sister should have gone on that show.

Just noticed duplicate widgets on either side of the new layout.  Can’t be having that.  Must reorganize widgets!

Ahhhh, Saturday

I woke up this morning with a song in my head by Travis Tritt…”It’s a great day to be alive.”  While everyday is a great day to be alive, today more than anything I *feel* it.  After a week of good news and near bliss (and I only say “near” because work got in the way – but I am thankful for the job…nevermind the pissy people), I am overflowing with joy.

On Tuesday, I got a phone call from my school notifying me of my acceptance into the medical lab program.  On top of that, they told me to drop my summer classes and to take them in the Fall.  So I have nothing to do from now until August except work, take my Seattle vacation and get my house painted.

Among that high, I’ve met someone so incredible who gives me that amazing fluttery feeling that I have not felt in a long time.  The minute I decide that any kind of relationship is not right for me (due to reasons aplenty), someone comes along and changes my mind within seconds.  This person is so wonderful and it feels so comfortable and natural and it feels like we have known each other for a lifetime already.  It’s definitely the something extraordinary I was hoping would come along one day.

On top of that, I had a talk with a certain person last night that was also great – the person I never thought I could be BFF’s with but now have gotten to that point…and I’m really happy about it too.  This person is an important part of my life and I am proud to call him a BFF.

Definitely blogworthy, amirite?

LOL

Family Guy is such a funny show.

Life Is Good

Well, I planned on blogging last night but the ever-so-wonderful Comcast Meridian caused yet another outage.  This will be the fourth one in the last two weeks.  For someone who uses the internet a lot, this is torture.

However, it is probably a good thing I was not able to blog last night.  My head was reeling with thoughts of relationships and it was a little overwhelming.  I have become quite the believer in “if you aren’t looking for it, it will come to you” over the past couple of weeks.  I am just feeling a little bit overwhelmed by it at the moment.

Regardless of me being overwhelmed, I have been very happy the last couple of days.  I don’t remember why I was so happy yesterday (lol) but today I got up after sleeping really well and ran a few errands.  I finally got my phone fixed so I can receive calls and make them again after five days of not having that option.  I then went to the post office to mail off my chemistry books that I sold on eBay (with my Anatomy and Physiology book, I got a total back of about $100 – woot!) and then I decided to eat lunch.

This is where my happiness came from today.  I decided to eat lunch at this new place we have called “Asian Bistro”.  I didn’t really know what to expect (except maybe Chinese).  I went inside expecting something buffet (thank God it wasn’t).  I sat down and started reading the menu.

Lo and behold, what do they have?!  PHO!!  My favorite food of all time and something Meridian has NEVER had before.  This Vietnamese dish is something Nate and I ate all the time in Washington, and that I haven’t had in about seven months.  I literally began to tear up when I saw Pho on the menu.  The owner said they would eventually start serving the Vietnamese sandwiches too (/swoon).  It is now up to me to spread the word of this wonderful restaurant so they can stay in business.  All for selfish reasons, of course, because if they aren’t there I will be unable to have Pho whenever I want it.  I even took a picture.  Mmm.

But now I am full and so, so miserable. Lol.  I hope I can get early time off so I can go home and work it off instead of just sitting here talking to people about their TV’s.

Let me submit this so I’ll stop getting interrupted.  I’ll write more later.  Bye for now!

Slacked already?!

LOL – So much for my thirty minutes a day…

I got my last final grade in – another B. Straight B’s. Considering I was working and schooling both full time, I’m happy with that. That’s above average. I was expecting a couple of C’s but I am so happy I was wrong.

Now I’m sitting here staring at my Vanguard download – it has a time left of 3 hours and 29 minutes. I may be able to raid tonight after all, yay! It could have been done earlier but I slept until 1 PM (like the good out-of-school slacker I am).

I have a couple of errands to run and then I must consume some food at one point so I should get going. I’ll have to sit down and be more productive on my blog later. Too many things to do before I get distracted by Vanguard again. Hahahahah….

Grey’s Anatomy

“Did you say it?  I love you.  I don’t ever want to live without you.  You changed my life.  Did you say it?  Make a plan.  Set a goal; work toward it.  But every now and then look around, drink it in.  Because, this is it.  It might all be gone tomorrow.”

The last couple of minutes of Grey’s Anatomy last night – very powerful words and really hit me hard.  Felt blogworthy.

All But ONE Final Grade is in…

Chemistry/Lecture – B
Chemistry/Lab – B
Anatomy & Physiology/Lab – B
Anatomy & Physiology/Lecture – TBA

I’m sweating bullets!! Here’s hoping for a perfect 3.0 after my first semester! Always time to pull it up!

‘Jes Chillin’

I have a final at 10 AM. It’s 1 AM. Don’t worry, I’m going to bed soon. I’m watching ‘Criminal Minds’ right now. It’s a show I’ve never really watched but it’s really quite good. I saw a really funny episode of ‘Family Guy’ earlier. They did a flashback of when Lois and Peter went to see ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and the Phantom was in the middle of THEIR version of the ‘Music of the Night’ and Peter shouts out, “Come on, show us the gross half of your face! Let’s see the gross half of your face so we can get out of here!”

It made me ‘lawl’. I’m not really sure why I’m blogging right this moment. I know it’s been a while and I know I’ve had more than my fair share of topics over the past week alone – yet what do I do? Still slack. My side links need so much updating. I need to do a general update on life up to this point and then dedicate 30 minutes a day to blogging from now on.

It’s a plan. Tomorrow after my final (and work) I am going to spend some time working on my blog.

Okay – off to bed. Need to do well on this final. Wish me luck on final grades on Friday.
