Hello all. Here I am again. It's Sunday...I'm off...Just sitting here drinking some Refresh tea...Which is mighty delicious by the way. it's Peppermint. Great when you're sick. Speaking of tea, they just opened this new store in our mall...forgot what it's called, but they have tons of tea..I went there today and sampled this AMAZING Jasmine tea. I haven't been able to find Jasmine tea anywhere since we stopped carrying it at work. I didn't buy any though....I need to save my remaining money for gas. Oh yeah, the only condiment that should ever be added to tea is honey. Those of you who add milk or white sugar to your tea....you're crazy.
Wow, I didn't realize how little I had to talk about until I decided to write. haha, Oh well, I guess I'll just wing it.
Life has been good I guess. Still trying to hang in there as best as I can. Thats all I can really do at this point. I guess it's working. I'm trying to develop a "zen" sort of attitude towards certain things (like work) so it doesn't bother me as much. At least I know I'm not alone in my feelings though...or what once was my feelings. I'm trying to work on a solution too...I don't think it'll work totally, but ya never know...maybe it'll help at least.....*rolls eyes*
Did some work on my scrapbook today...It's coming along really great!
My music has kind of branched out a little more...in the same genre of course, but I'm getting into Aerosmith, Steve Miller Band, Boston, Scorpions, and I'm even starting to kind of like the Rolling Stones. And Dean Martin is becoming a favorite of mine as well...gotta love the ol' standards.
It's starting to warm up around here which is awesome...it was incredibly nice yesterday. It's a little cooler today though. I can't wait for summer!! I'll be in such a better mood. Although, thats thunderstorm season...*rolls eyes* I really need to move back to the desert. I don't hate thunderstorms...I'm not scared of them, I just think they're annoying to drive in and such. And people REALLY under estimate what rain can do to the roads. It's pouring buckets and people are still speeding on the highway. Real smart. I think I'm more afraid to drive in rain than snow. Sounds silly, but it's true.
Anywhoo. I guess thats it for now.
later all.

Blah-de-blah. Here I am. Last post was on February 21st...I think thats what my dashboard said. lol. It's really weird to think that I've had this blog since I was in High school! Isn't that crazy? I've lost several of my entries due to glitches, but it still goes back pretty far...I think to like 2001 or something. Thats insane. It's funny to go back and read all the pathetic stuff I talked about and realize....nothings changed.
So, Life has been alright I guess. Nothing terribly exciting, nothing really. I've been looking for a new job. A lot more intently too. I've been looking online and in the newspaper every single day. I need to try something new. I'm really sick of feeling so trapped. And lately it seems like we're in the army instead of working in a bookstore. It's so fucking retarded. So yeah, I'm sick of it and looking to leave ASAP. I had a few prospects, but nothing has panned out yet. I do have an interview on Monday though, wish me luck. *crosses fingers*.
Anyways, In the morning I've been listening to the best radio show EVER. Chaz and AJ on 99.1 PLR. I already knew it was a fantastic radio station anyway, they're one of the only ones that plays decent music that doesn't suck royal ass. Chaz and AJ are awesome. They're sooo funny. It's really my type of thing. If I'm awake in time to listen, I'm there. It makes my commute on my days that I have to work early a lot more interesting.
So, A weird thing happened a couple weeks ago. It was about 8:30 at night on a Wednesday...and I had gone to Stop and Shop to pick up a few things and They didn't have the shampoo that I wanted. So I go across the street to CVS...not even thinking twice about it. And I'm in the isle, and I hear "Dominick to the front" over the loud speaker thing. I'm like Oooohhhh Shit. I had no idea he still worked there. I figured he was off doing something big and important now considering he has a degree in computers and such. So I'm standing there panicking. Then, knowing that he was going to be in the front of the store, I, using my good sense, go to the back. lol. So I'm walking around there for a few minutes probably looking like I'm about to steal something...kinda acting like a moron. Then thinking that it's safe to go pay for my merch, I head up to the front. Yeah, guess it wasn't safe. He was there...He had his back turned to me though talking to a customer and what-not. So I kinda rush up and pay...and out of my perif, I see him walking to the left side of the counter. When I'm about to leave, I glance over to my left for a mili-second and I see him glaring at me. I was like "wtf mate?". So I run out of there like a pansy. That look he was giving me could have set me on fire....I will never forget that look. Even though that glare could have killed me, I still felt like a total asshole for not at least saying hello. I mean, I don't think he could have really set me on fire...he was at work after all...I may not be the best at customer service but I know you're not supposed to light your customers on fire...regardless if they're your ex girlfriend or not. So anyway, I texted him the next night apologizing for my ass-holeish behavior. I haven't talked to him in about two years....insanity. I was afraid he was going to bite my head off again after I texted him, but Whatever, I did anyway...and much to my shock, I still have my head. We had a pretty civil conversation. And we've been talking on and off for the past couple weeks. It's really strange. I mean, I still don't think he gives two shits about me. I honestly wanted to get together and have a few drinks and talk..he agreed to it, but it's never going to happen. I honestly don't think he would care if I got run over by an 18-wheeler. I just wanted to make sure that he doesn't hate me. But, whatever. If he does, thats his waste of energy, not mine. *sigh*
I'm really looking forward to summer. Mostly for the warm weather. I'm going to try like hell to get out of here for a few days, or a week, or an HOUR...I don't care, I just need to get out of Connecticut. I want to go back to Disney SOOO bad, but thats not going to happen. *tear*. Hopefully soon. When Chris moves to D.C. I'm totally going to visit him. lol. I want to go there SOOO bad. I want to see the white house. Hey, Maybe James would go with me! Thats a crazy idea. Hmmmmmmmmm *thinks*....
Anywhoo....I've officially run out of random things to talk about. And all of a sudden I'm having trouble concentrating on this. :-P
Goodnight all.
