YES! I managed to update two days in a row!! GO ME! lol.
Anywhoo.... my dream came true yesterday. Let me explain.
I knew I was gonna hang out w/ Dom yesterday cuz we were planning on it. lol. So I was in the basement waiting for him to call me saying he was about to leave work. then I get a call from him saying he's outside! kinda surprised, i get up and go to the front door...and he had in his hand, some flowers for me and another wrapped present. I was sooo shocked. I was like "awwwww!!!!!" I opend his other present...and it was a heater for my room!!!!! lol, I told him how cold it gets in my room in the winter so he got me a little heater!!! I'm sooo happy. It works awesome!! It was wicked cold last night. The best part about it is, it has a thermostat on it so when it gets to the temperature you set it for, it goes off automaticlly. SOO awesome. And he gave me a really sweet card too ^_^...and some Halloween candy from his mom :) I was just in awe at all of that. I know this is gonna sound really cheezy, But it's always been kind of a dream of mine to get flowers from a guy. I really don't know why, but I guess it just seemed so cute ^_^. So yesterday, my dream came true. I can't believe we've been going out for over a month already...seems so unreal. But its been one of the best months of my life. :-D <3
I really gatta start Christmas shopping...perhaps il do a little tomorrow before work. I have a good idea of what I'm getting Dom for Christmas...and I had a few ideas for my dad. Don't knwo If I'll be able to do it tho....eeep. lol I'm so glad I have a second job now...the extra money is really gonna help me. It sucks that she can't keep me permanently. But oh well. At least its extra money for now. Thank you Ryan!!! lol
BeJewled closed today :( I'm gonna miss everyone. Debbie is having an open house soemtime next month..too bad she lives in Mass otherwhise I would DEFINATLY go. She invited everyone from Papyrus. I can't even imagine what she's got at home. Infact, I can't even imagine what her house looks like. lol. Must be pretty cool.
PUMPKINS ARE OFFICIALLY OVER!!!!!! We sold out of them today so tomorrows people won't have to do anything! And the best part is, EVERYTHING IS CLEANED UP ALREADY! So there won't be that stupid clean-up day that I was told about. Thank Goodness its over. All thats left is to pickup my check!
Anywhoo...time for bed. Ciao!

Wow...its the 29th already...where the hell did the time go?!?!
well, in a nutshell, life is good. Things have been really super lately and Im wicked happy. I mean, there have been a few things that have sucked, but whatever, you know? I'm starting to realize finally, that life is too short to dwell on things. Just get over it, and move on.
On Tuesday I finally got my new TV. It's wicked awesome. 32" Toshiba. Idealy, I really wanted a 32" flat screen. But they were too expensive. But the curve in the one I got is so slight that It almost looks flat screen, so I settled for it. It's wicked nice. I also got a DVD/VCR combo. SOOO nice. I love it. I'm so happy I invested in it.
Only 2 days left of pumpkins. THANK GOODNESS. I'm so happy its almost over. And that last 500 dollar check is sounding better and better by the minute.
I woke up yesterday morning w/ an AWEFUL backache. I seriously couldn't move. I must have pulled something in my sleep. I was hurting sooo bad. My back still hurts, but Its definatly getting better, Thankfully. OMG, it was so freaking bad. Could not move.
I got a job for the Holidays at the bookstore in the mall. My first day was yesterday. It went pretty well. The people seem nice and it pays a dollar and ten cents more then what I make now. It sucks that I can't work there permanently. Oh well. at least its extra money for the time being.
Monday was me and Dom's one month anniversary. I didn't get to see him for some reason I don't remember...but I think we're going to the movies tonight or something. He wants me to go see Saw 2 with him. Won't do it. LOL, so sorry, but no thanks. I started watching the first one at Denise's and I couldn't do it. So freakin gross.
I talked to Scott last night for over an hour. Really good to talk to him again :) He's always good for a laugh or two. He said something to me taht was kinda flattering too ^_^ he said something like "Every time I talk to you I always feel inspired to laugh and make jokes". I thought that was sweet ^_^.
Anywhoo...I gatta go change and get ready for work. Grrr...tonight I work with Sarah...Should be interesting....*Rolls eyes*
Later all!

Hey all...
Lots of happenings in the past couple days... Firstly, the other day Dom was over cuz we were going to Best Buy, and my computer crashed. Well, not my computer, my operating system crashed. It was aweful. I couldn't even open it in Safe mode. Thats how you know something is really messed up. So needless to say, once again, I had to restore my computer and get rid of all my files. I had backed up some things, But not nearly everything I had. Not a big deal I guess tho... But from now on, I'm gonna save EVERYTHING on a CD-RW disk so I can have it. What really sucks is I started playing my harry potter computer game again and got pretty far...and now my game is gone! grrrr...lol, oh well, Ill get back to it. Also have had to re-install a lot of stuff which has sucked. But oh well. I'll deal.
Monday is me and Dom's one month anniversary. ^_^ Its been a fabulus month to say the least. I'm seriously the happiest Ive ever been. Ya know wahts weird? Dom asked me out on September 24th..I think that was the day of my parents old Anniversary. A little irony for ya.
Tomorrow I'm off to best buy to get a new TV and DVD player for my basement. Yeah, thats gonna be my present to myself w/ some of my pumpkin patch money. I'm excited. ^_^ It'll be cool to be able to watch movies down there and such. the TV i have now is so old that it doesn't even work all the time. Im glad I"m getting rid of it. I was originally just going to get a DVD player, but then I realized the TV is so old that I probably couldn't hook one up anyways. So, I'm just gonna go all out and get a new TV too :).
Tomorrow I have to give Lauren my heartwalk donations...anybody else who wants to donate, please let me know!!
I can't believe how fast October has gone by. I mean, Im sorta glad its done by fast..cuz that means the pumpkin patch is almost over!!! yaaaayyy!!! No more worrying about it!! :-D Christmas is almost here...I'm not gonna be buying much. Im gonna get presents for Dom, my dad, my mom, and maybe Denise,and whoever my secret santa person is at work, And thats gonna be pretty much it. Crap- I still gatta think og a present for my dad for his birthday!!! It's Nov. 5th and I have no idea what to get him. Grrr....
Guess what folks? I got a new job!!! just a temporary one for the holidays...but theres a possiblity that it could be permanent because tehres someone whose fulltime now whose leaving after the Holidays. Yeah, i should probably say where the job is. lol. It's at Borders Express..formerlly Walden Books. and yeah, its at the mall. Oh well tho. Im praying that it'll be permanent and I'll get to quit my job at Papyrus.
Me and Dom watched "Batman Begins" last night. It was surprisingly good! I really wasn't expecting it to be good, but hey, what the hell, it wasn't bad! Gonna watch one of my other Netflix movies tonight ^_^.
Im thinking about taking an online class. sounds like something I might be interested in. But I wanna wait and see how my schedule is gonna look before I persue it much further..I already know I"m gonna be busy working two jobs for the holidays...and if I work fulltime after that..I dunno how much time I'll have. But You get normal degrees and everything so hey, it may be cool.
Well, guess thats all for now. Ciao!

Been running around the past couple days. Pretty Busy.
Saturday's pumpkin delivery went A LOT better then I thought. People eventually showed up, and I ended up going in the truck so I didn't have to be outside in the rain for very long. Counting even wasn't bad. A few people took turns doing it and It actually went by pretty quickly! I was SOOO Happy. Only took like 2 hours to unload. I was so happy everything worked out alright. Now all we gatta do is SELL THEM. All that damn rain we had definatly set us back. But oh well. I hope it gets busy and we start selling more. Not that it really matters to me, I get paid either way. lol :-P....lol, im so greedy.
I joined Netflix today. Im really happy. Very cheap way to rent movies. The first three I'm getting are "Dodgeball", "Theres something about mary", and "Eternal Sunshine". Its so cool cuz you get unlimited rentals for the entire month. thats freakin' sweet!Now I can finally see all the movies ive been meaning to see without paying huge amounts at blockbuster.
Im thinking of buying a Mitch Hedberg memorial T-shirt. They're really cool! It has a picture of Mitch on an escalator and at the bottom of the escalator, theres a sign that says "escalator temporarily stairs...sorry for the convenience". LOL. Awesomeness.
I found out that Dom knows Chad!!!LoL, not only does Dom know Chad, Dom is his boss....LOL! small world.... I haven't seen Chad in a wicked long time...miss him. I miss guitar class in general though. Well, not really the class, just the people.
Haven't done much today so far...just went to the bank, got gas, and chilled at Borders for a bit...had another one of my honey vanillia chais....mmmmm.....those are SOOO good
Anywhoo...not much else to talk about...and I guess i better go get ready for work. lol Later all!

For once in my life I can honestly say that things are going very well. Ive been so incredibly happy lately and its been the best. Ive seen Dom every day this week so far. On Monday when he got home, I was working...and when I got out, I stopped to talk to Ryan for a bit..afterwords I walked out to my car..so i get in my car and a few seconds later someone I see someone looking in my window...sure enough it was Dom...LOL, he scared the CRAP outta me!! I thought someone was randomly looking in my car at me..lol :-P. But yeah, I was so happy to see him again after not seeing him for so long....so Long, meaning, 5 days. lol. So yeah, he came over and we just chilled. He's been over every day this whole week. lol. My dad is prob. like "what the hell?" lol Yesterday before the movies we were tossing my hackey sack back and forth. LOL. I kept throwing it at him really fast. lol, was funny. Anywhoo. We saw "Waiting". AWESOME movie. Definatly different. The best part as Dane Cook is in it ;-) LOVE him. But it was a wicked good movie...I can't wait to get it on DVD. Same with Wedding Crashers. :-P
My dad has sorta been talking to Denise again...I really don't know the whole story of whats going on, but I guess its a good thing. I really miss her a lot. I gatta give her a call soon...
Been playing guitar a lot more lately...its been really cool. I think i was getting frustrated before because Im honestly not that good. but I'm going back over some more basic stuff..like the stuff I learned in school, and I'll just work up from there. Can't expect to be Mark Tremonti in only a couple years! lol.
Ive been so damn lazy lately. Its incredible. but I've also gotten next to no hours at work. grrrr. But I may have another job prospect..hopefully something will happen...if not, Ryan will take care of it. lol :-P
Ive been thinking. I kinda wanna get another piercing in my ears. I think it would be cool..but Im not sure tho. I don't wanna get too much into that stuff...But it might be kinda cool. Ill have to sleep on that one.
Lauren (my friend) got me an awesome souvineer from NYC when she went...Its a SNL shot glass! its awesome! IT says SNL and "Live from New york". AWESOME. I gatta see if the NBC store has an online store too...that'd RULE. NOt that I need to spend anymore money...
Well, like I said before, Things are really awesome for me right now. I have an awesome boyfriend, and Im just wicked happy w/ everything. Pumpkins are going alright, but i wouldn't really care if they weren't. Well, they're not exactly going alright..but decent...Sharon called me last night and told me that the light switch shorted or something so theres no lights right now...so we're gonna have to close early untill its fixed. She started naming off all these people for me to call. Its crazy. Whatever. She's annoying, but I'll deal. As soon as this is over everything will be back to normal again. We're getting our second shipment on Saturday. We have no freakin room. I don't think we're gonna sell a lot more...the weather has been crappy and we haven't been doing much business. But Whatever.....I guess It'll be alright. Not my problem. lol
Anywhoo, im starving...time for food. Later!

*Sigh* I don't understand the male brain. Ive been bothered by this same guy on yahoo messnager for like the past six months or so to put my webcam on for him. He's like "im waiting to see you"....Am I a fucking object or something? seriously, what the hell? where do guys get off treating girls like that? First of all, I have a boyfriend, and he knows this. So what the hell is he think im gonna do?! grrrrrr....I wish he'd fall off his computer chair and break a hip or something.
Dom is in New York untill Monday. :-( I miss him. Just the thought of him not being around really sucks. I spent a few hours with him yesterday and we just chilled at my house and lounged around. Honestly, the best times ive had w/ him have been when we just chilled and did nothing. I love his company..he's so freaking cool ^_^. can't wait till he comes back.
I have to be at the pumpkin patch from 10-5 tomorrow. That is gonna SUCK. I'm gonna be so frickin' bored. Ill probably finish my Harry Potter book tomorrow cuz thats all I'll be doing.
Well, the verdict is in...my dad has diabetes. Which means my chance of getting is relatively good. That sucks ass. but hopefully ill be able to make changes now and reduce my risk at least... Ugh. I hate that. but I guess if I get it, I get it. It'll just be something I have to deal with.
Anywhoo, just a quick update...g'night all.

Ohhhh the chaos that is my life.....Been trying to do a zillion things at once here and for those of you who don't know, it doesn't work out all that well. Theres been pile of crap after pile of crap going on in my life, but at the same time, some good stuff. ^_^.
The pumpkin patch is starting to calm down a little...people aren't bothering me as much anymore which is all I really wanted to stop. But people have been signing up, and Its going great! I just have to get my check now and ill be set...lol :-P
Things w/ me and Dom are going great. I really do like him a lot...He's so sweet and I can tell he likes me a lot too. I'm sooooooo happy.
Now comes the bad part....
My dad is going to the doctor tomorrow to get tested for Diabetes. He's pretty much got all the symtoms..he's thirsty all the time, and going to the bathroom a lot...and someone at work had a diabetic kit and brought in the little meter that tests your blood sugar...and it was way up. like really high. So it doesn't look good. Not at all. If he does have diabetes, or even if he doesn't, Theres gonna be some drastic changes in my life. Im gonna be changing my diet a lot and increasing the amount of exersize i do also. Mainly because diabetes runs in familes and my grandma has it..now my dad probably has it...and my aunt said that she's sort of had the same thing my dad has. I mean, you can't really help it if it runs in your family, but I wanna prevent it as much as possible. I just hope my dad is okay.
Continuing to read the HP book....its pretty good so far, a little slow, but good. Only one more book and thats it....*cries*
Haven't talked to Jay in a few days....it feels weird. Im used to talking to him pretty much every day. lol, Its getting lonely!!
BeJewled is closing at the end of this month...*cries* thats so sad...I gatta go there and stock up on stuff before they close :(. Hopefully it will just be temporary...Debbie decided to close it for the Holidays because her rent goes up to an insane amount if she stays open through the holiadys..but if she comes back after, they're gonna raise her rent 500 dollars. I really hope she comes back...I love their stuff.
My dad is with Denise right now as I type this...I have no idea whats going on. But they seemed to be okay when i saw them together. It was good to see Denise again..I haven't seen her since her and my dad dropped me off at my hotel in Florida. Haven't really talked to her much either. Pretty much after that it was down-hill for her and my dad after that so i haven't talked to her much. But I do miss her a lot.
Anywhoo..thats it for now i guess.
Ciao!
