At work todaaaaaaayyy - yaaayy yaaayy yayyya. That was my "I'm at work" song. I hope you liked it. haha
I love how fast time flies when you're in good company. Last night was yet another 3:30am night that just flew by! It was such great conversation, I really enjoyed it. I'm glad there are tentative plans for the future, but have to admit that I'm a little confused... At the very least, I love that our friendship is getting deeper and more mature, so I really can't complain.
This weekend is Mother's Day and my dad and brother's birthday weekend so I'm going home to celebrate with them. It's such a hit to the wallet!! haha I have no idea what to get either of my parents, so I'm going to have to brainstorm that while I'm singing my "I'm at work" song. I've got to take care of that tonight after work. I can't wait to get off work cause I've got a lot to take care of before I got home tomorrow. My kitchen is an absolute mess. Well - okay that's a lie - it's not a mess by traditional standards, I just have a lot of dishes to do. BUT! They are all in the sink, so if you glance in the kitchen, you can't even tell. Um... why I felt the need to share that with you all is beyond me... haha So I apologize.
Aight. Guess that's all I have to say about that. Don't want to bore you any further. Enjoy your Saturday! :)

One Week
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR GRADUATION ERIN AND SUJAL :D
I don't really have much to say today... I have been really busy in the past 24 hours trying to pull everything together. It's been nice to be occupied with all that while D is gone, cause otherwise I just mope around. So, yeah. TGIF

Tainted Love
Okay now it's time for my random little rants/comments. I realized that it's been awhile since I've expressed any, so here we go! And J loves the rant... haha So J this is for you. :)
1) Why do you always come to me to bitch about her? Is that all we have in common, or something? 2) Sober you is more fun than drunken you - yet, rarely do I see sober you anymore. 3) Your attitude is awesome for customer service but I like it better when you're a real person-person. 4) Never has anyone made me feel so comfortable. Ever. Thank you. 5) We both have the same goal.... will you support me, please?! 6) You're so much fun when you aren't being so serious. 7) That was the nicest surprise! You're too sweet. 8) Just go get laid already.

Take On Me
80's music at work today... yeaaaaah. Love it! :)
I'm not perfect. And there are so many things that I need to work on to get through life without being a person I never wanted to be. It'll take a lot of work on my part, but I'm up to the challenge. My self-deemed "heart of stone" needs to soften up - a lot. My mom had always told me that leaving and going to college was for me. A time to be selfish, a time to not worry about anything or anyone else but myself. Unfortunately, I took that advice too extremely... because I am coming to realize that some decisions I have made out of selfishness were not the kind my mom meant. And I feel horrible.
I need to get my priorities straight. I need work on seeing things from others people's perspectives, put myself in their shoes. I need to remember the Golden Rule. I've got a lot to work on.... And not just to help my relationships with other people, but also to help myself. To learn from the past, but keep it behind me. To start anew. To grow. To mature. For my happiness and success.
The next ten days will be good for us. Then - a fresh start. Because I don't know what I'd do without you.

Garden Party
Second day in the general books department went very well! I'm feeling much more comfortable and confident with the department and working with customers face to face and all that jazz. It's pretty awesome to get to be out on the floor! I really enjoy the change. Still love being at the desk though! I am so blessed that I am able to do both this summer.
I must still be really behind on my sleep cause I had a rough time getting up this morning. And I slept in much later than I originally wanted to!! I guess it's my summer, so really it's not that big a deal. It's what time of year is for, right?! haha I guess I shouldn't be complaining - there are much worse things. I just like to be productive in the morning is all. Aw well, better luck tomorrow!
Going to be celebrating Cinco de Mayo tonight with a margarita!! Cheers :)

Walk The Line
This is totally random, but I just have to get it out.... ready, set, release:
Why would this be weighing on me? I know I didn't do anything wrong, I know nothing bad can come of it... I just can't stop thinking about it, but I need to stop obsessing. I wouldn't take it back by any means. I guess I could have done things differently.
But you know what, no. I could have done things differently, sure, but who would that be benefiting? Not even me. I just need to stop worrying about something that hasn't happened, stop assuming the worst, and handle whatever comes as it comes. Yeah.
The End.
Aaaahhhh relief. I feel muuuuuch better. :)

The Man Who Can't Be Moved
I got a washer! I got a washer! I got a washer, hey hey hey hey!
I got a dryer! I got a dryer! I got a dryer, hey hey hey hey!
I got my couch covers! I got my couch covers! I got my couch covers, hey hey hey hey!
D and I finally got our washer and dryer and couch covers today!! The washer and dryer was delivered by this quirky dude who was a little sketch and the washers had apparently been sitting in a warehouse - or something like that - so they were dirty as hell. They are a really nice set though!! Only about 6 years old and work fine from what we can tell so far... And the couch covers are simply awesome. They are a pretty blue and really bring our entire living room together and just look so nice! It's super exciting that things are coming together so nicely! Happy summer 2010 to me! :)

I'm Free
Sorry for not posting yesterday! I worked my first summer shift and spend the rest of the day studying for my last two finals that were this morning - and went AWESOME, btw. I was thinking about it, this is the first semester that I have felt so incredibly prepared for all my finals thanks to having all great professors this semester! Though I did do some definite complaining, this was probably one of my best semesters ever. We'll have to see how my GPA fares though... All the finals went very well, but I did do some half-assing on other assignments and quizzes.
That being said - my summer freedom is official!!! Woot woot :D Stress relief - here I come!!

Walk On The Ocean
It's May!! Of course, you never'd be able to guess it because of the snow and freezing weather we've had this past week... That's the state of Utah for you.
It has been a wonderful weekend so far and I imagine that today is not going to be any different. Yesterday I took walk around my new neighborhood and I'm pretty much in love with it! I also started reading The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold and it's really good so far. The movie just came out this past year and I originally said there was no way in hell I was going to see it, but after Stanley Tucci got his Academy Award Nominee, I would really love to see his performance. However, I hear the movie is different than the book - as usual - I want to read the book first so that is what I base the movie on, instead of vice versa. Also, because of the nature and premise of the story, I'd like to prepare myself for what to expect in the movie. I will be glad when my last finals are over this week to get my summer reading on. I had a reading list last summer, but I only got to half the books. This summer there are some books that I definitely want to get to and a ton of others that I have heard good reviews on that I want to add to the list. Sujal, I never got to The Eyre Affair so that one is definitely at the top of my list this summer :)
Okay, I suppose that's all I've got to say for now! I need to get studying so I can enjoy myself later tonight.
