Wow, a post two days in a row..Thats really unussual these days.
I feel a lot better emotionally. Had a talk with someone last night and cleared some stuff up..and it really helped a lot. So I'm pretty much good now :)
Yesterday as you could have probably figured out, was a pretty bad day emotionally, but I did get to see Lauren and met her new puppy which is ADORABLE!, and I called Samantha because yesterday was her birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!) hopefully I'll get to see her soon as well. Also made cupcakes and drew chess pieces on them ^_^. Theres a picture of them on my myspace :-P
Today I feel like I accomplished a lot. Thats probably because I did. :-P. This morning I got up and went grocery shopping..my cupboards were pretty much bare. Then after that I came home and cleaned my bathroom and my kitchen from top to bottom. Scrubbed every inch of everywhere. They both needed it pretty badly. Also brought all the recycleables (is that word?) out to the bin (they had been collecting for a long time) Then went to work...now I'm just sitting here waiting for my laundry to get done. lol. Yay for doing laundry at 11:30 at night!!!! On Sunday if I have time I'm planning on picking up a little bit and vacuuming..with my shitty vacuum. lol. The funny part is, my little dust buster thing cleans better than my upright vacuum...but I a'int getting down on my hands and knees and vacuuming my entire carpet with a little dust buster....so it'll have to do.
I'm kind of excited about Sunday. It's Father's day (as you all know) and I got my dad a REALLY rare book about the Three Stooges. Found it on amazon for the cheapest I've ever seen it (for a copy in good condition). So, I got him that, and I'm having him and Denise over for lasagna. Should be pretty good :). Also have Church that day of course :).
Ugh, Tomorrows going to Suck...I have to close tomorrow night untill midnight and then be at work for 8am on Saturday (because someone's on vacation). GREAT. gotta love that. But my schedule is back to normal next week.
Speaking of work...Rachel put in her notice! I think Wendesday is her last day. I don't think I'm going to go for her job. Although I have been thinking about it. I convinced Kate to go for it..I think she would be great. And Since I"m going to be a certified trainer, I'll be her right hand person. :). I don't know..the pay would be nice, but I'm not sure I want to deal with Melissa more than I have to. Right now I only see her like 2 days and I kind of like it that way. Plus, I don't want to work Sundays. :-P.
Well anywhoo...I'm going to go take care of my laundry....later everyone!

Wow. Today is a really dreary depressing day. I seriously need to move back to the desert again. The weather here fucking depresses me. Possibly do that next year sometime. My lease is up the end of March...Maybe I'll be able to transfer to a Borders out in Arizona and get my own place out there. That'd be really nice. Apartments out there are WICKED ASS CHEAP too. Man, that'd be the life.
I don't know why I'm just really anxious and depressed lately. Well, I have an idea of what it is I guess. I could go on and on about it too...but I'm not going to. I don't want anyone to worry about me...although I've been worrying about myself a lot.
I guess the main thing is, I have to have faith. It seemed like things were slowly falling into place..and they were. But now they're breaking apart again. I should have expected it anyway, thats what always happens. Whenever I get a little break, life comes back down on me twice as hard. One thing that depresses me the most is, I'm turning 21 in a little over two months and my thought is that I'm going to go to the casino. I have a bucket that I put all my tips in and I'm saving that to use there. But the problem is, with whom am I going with? What I'll probably end up doing is staying home that entire week crying and thinking about what a loser I am. Yeah, thats me for ya. Me and my exciting life.
UGH.

Ugh, I've been so freakin' busy lately...it's unbelieveable. I was in such horrible shape 2 mondays ago that I called out of work. Then I took this past monday off....yeah, mental health day. It really wasn't all that relaxing however. I spent it with my mom running around from store to store looking for clothes for me. I found one shirt even though that wasn't even what I was on the look-out for...was looking for capris. But yeah, no luck. Clothes suck. lol. So yeah, But overall this week so far has been pretty relaxing/fun. Yesterday I met Rae and Kristin at the mall in the morning so Rae could look for a job. Was super awesome to see them again. So, chilled with them, then went to work. It wasn't as fun as it could have been...Heather is on vacation so Melissa closed with Jenn and I. Not the same as heaving Heather around. :(. but she'll be back on Saturday, so it's all good. Melissa is just such a bitch. Very hard to work with and totally un professional. But whatever. Although, They have been giving me more responsibility. I think I'll be in books soon, and They're also making me a certified cafe trainer which I'm actually really excited about. So, if something happens to Rachel, Ill be ready to step in and take her place. I'm kind of flattered that they picked me over everyone else. Not that Anyone else is really suited for the job.
Today I had a pretty decent day. Started out treating myself to a Subway sandwich for lunch, then went to the bank to deposit some money. Then proceeded to go to Bath and body works and pick up a few things from that AMAZING sale they have going on. Also got some father's day cards. I was also on a search for Jasmine essential oil. I can't really explain it, but Jasmine is a really soothing scent. When I'm really stressed, the scent always calms me down. I first discovered this from that Jasmine tea we have at work. I bet you all think I'm nuts. lol. But anywhoo, I tried the body shop, and they had a jasmine home oil which is the exact scent that I wanted. But nothing in an essential oil. They had a weird blend with Jasmine in it, but eh...no good. Tried Blue Moon too, they also had a weird blend..not what I wanted. Then it was off to the center and I got a coffee and went into this little body shop there..they had oils, but not jasmine scented...grrr. They told me to try Whole Foods. Went there, and they had the exact scent!!! But...it was $35 for a teeny tiny little bottle. I was sooo mad. So, then I tried Wild Oats. Again, they had the exact scent, but it was $21 dollars for an even smaller bottle than the one at Whole Foods. GRRRR!. But, they did have a blend that I settled on that was on sale for $12. And it's a pretty decent size. So it's all good I guess. Haha, I bet everyone whose reading this entry totally skipped over that entire paragraph. lol
I haven't seen Pirates 3 yet...was supposed to go today w/ Jon, but he bailed on me again >.<. lol. REALLY want to see that...and Shrek 3. someday I'll get around to it. I don't think I've been to the movie theatre in like 6 months or more.....wow. But I should see Pirates because when it comes out on DVD theres gonna be a huge wait for it on netflix..better to see it in the theatre.
So overall things are actually going really well. With the exception of things that I can't really talk about.
UGH! I really want to rant right now...I've had so much ranting material go through my head in recent days....but maybe I'll save it for my private journal...that way there can't be any uproar. lol.
So, I was watching a little of the republican debate last night...interesting stuff. And all I have to say is: Giuliani all the way. I'm soooo psyched about it. Always have been even before he decided to run. I'm all about it. ^_~
Anywho..............Im off.....time for dinner and Lewis Black. lol ;-)
