Currently Listening: Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus
- Make Some Noise

Hey Kids. Not much going on here. I'm currently just waiting for work and washing my work clothes. They should be done hopefully soon. I figure I'll just change into work clothes and get all ready to leave so I won't be late. Reeser came to visit last week. It was fun and I'm glad you could come down to visit, Reeser! I put that puzzle picture up on my myspace if you wanna see it. I got it as light as I could without distorting the picture. I called Petco today. The lady is supposed to call me back. Mayhaps I can just attempt to make a deal with them, so they'll hire me. I know my schedule is kinda screwy this semester and it's my fault and stupidity for not finding a better paying job this summer, but mayhaps I can work hard to find another job before school. That'll atleast give me a month to work any availability before school and hopefully atleast 6 days out of the week during school. Having Mondays off because of classes will be good cuz strikes come on Mondays usually, so I won't haveta bother asking off at work and sounding like I need 50 billion days off during the semester. I'm just nervous about a late night class, but if my baby and I get to carpool in the morning and if he picked me up at night, then I wouldn't haveta walk outside in the dark to the car by myself. I'm sure it'll be fine, but you know me and if you don't then yu can obviously tell I don't like the dark and I'm definitely paranoid about being in a part of town that does creep me out at night atleast.

A friend of mine gave me a new little bag/purse type dealy. It's cute. I transferred all my suff into it now, so I can carry it around to work, school, shopping, or just wherever I end up going throughout the week. It's not too big and it's not too small. It fits most of my necessary stuff just fine. Yay! =)

I got to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix last Thursday. It's such a good movie. I've read the books so far and am a very big Harry Potter fan. For those who like the book, sure there are things that are not in the movie or had to be changed a little, but if you can get past that and just look at it from a spectator's point of view who has never read the book then you'll be much better off. =P Just enjoy the movie for what it is and don't bicker about it too much.

Anyhow, I should check up on my clothes. I should dig through my purse and find a rolaid too... Take my advice, don't eat eggs and broccoli together. It's not a good combo... x_X The mail should be here soon, also. Hopefully there'll be more than just bills...

Take care! It's about time I updated, huh? Well, I'll attempt to do it more often, but I won't make any promises in case I forget. ^_^() love ya, -P-

School's Out For Summer! Yay!

Soooo... School is out for the summer. I'm glad I don't haveta sit in school for many lectures each day until Fall semester starts in August, but I will admit I'm a little bored. I need a new hobby. *Ponders* I know there's several books I could read, a storage unit to eventually eliminate (It may only be 19 dollars but that's one less bill I want right now), a few costumes that I'd like to attempt to sew together, or the possibility of getting a second job. Not thrilled about the last option, but I could always use the extra money... It would be atleast for the summer. The good thing about the job I have right now is that they are flexible to work around vacations, school, and other necessar days I'd need off. No I can't just ask for a whole month off or something ridiculous like that, but they are nice about letting me take off  weekend to go to a convention or visit family outside of this area. Combatting two jobs and requesting days off at both jobs would just be irritating, unless I found a place that would let me work Monday through Friday in the mornings. I'm not sure who would be crazy enough to do that for me, but I might check a couple of the bookstores in town. I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

Reeser might be coming down for the summer! That'd be fun! ^_^ There's not much to do here, but atleast I'd get to see her. I know Jai can't take off a lot more work if any, so if she can't come here then mayhaps I could just make a trip up there for a weekend or something. We'll haveta see what her daddy has in mind.

Jai's at work today for atleast part of the day. I wanna still go to the storage unit and see what all I can pull out or bag up for Goodwill. It's been kinda stormy lately and I heard some thunder earlier, but we'll just haveta see. First I needta wait for the mail people to get here so I can make sure Jai's lightsaber comes in the mail today and doesn't get stolen or anything. That's fine with me, though. I just wish it would come already! x_x I keep checking the door, but nothing there yet. No knock or anything....

I can't wait till me baby gets home! ^_^ We're both trying to eat better. Mostly we've been eating salads with light dressing, yogurt, Special K cereal, eggs, veggies, a little bread but not too much, chicken, and turkey. Then we usually drink water, powerade, or diet drinks. I know there's some unhealthy aspects of most any foods, but it's better than what I used to eat. I'm tired of greasy burgers and fast food.... I just wanna lose some weight and tone up. I think it'd be healthier for me and make me feel more confident. My baby wants to lose weight and fit into a spidey costume. That's a great goal, though! I hope he does it.  I'll continue to encourage us both to eat good foods. Now I just need to look into getting a membership at the Rec Center. Then we can go swimming or weight lifting or track walking or bicycling or even take some fitness classes. I'm mostly loking forward to the swimming. My friend Kristen invited me to use her pool, so on occasion we could do that, but I would just really like to be able to go to a pool whenever I'd feel up to swimming for an hour or so to help get into better shape. The apartment pool is huge, but we live almost in a well...not so fun looking area, so I'd just feel safer swimming at the Rec Center.

Anyhow, I better go check the door again. So far I haven't heard anything. My head kinda hurts, though. I'm thinking once the package arrives, I'll take a short nap to rest my brain. I locked our bratty cat Calvin in his room....I am SO getting tired of that cat. Now, I realize that I wanted to give it a chance originally...Well....I did...and all he does is get worse. The day he starts spraying in the house will be the day I kick his butt so hard. >.< ....okay, I'm not abusive...just venting. But he doe drive me crazy! My kitty, Ki-Ki, is going to hopefully have a new home. I don't have the money to get him de-clawed....I realize he bit me once when I was bathing him and hasn't done it since, so that's not exactly a reason to give him away to a new home, but I just...I dunno... He's neutered, has his shots, and will be flea-ridden for about a month when I get the monthly medication on him soon, so hopefully somebody will want him and take good care of him. I'll miss him, but I'll play with Jai's kitty instead. I know I've said it a buzzillion times and even tried to get my mommy to give me one for my upcoming birthday, but I just really would like a puppy... I know there's expenses for them as well as cats, but once he's neutered and has his shots and has some monthly flea medication that my mommy could order for me, then all I'd haveta do is feed him and train him. Cockerpoos are prolly the best. They are medium-smallish dogs with short hair and can be easily trimmed outside on the patio (My daddy taught me how on Chewy). They don't shed masses of fur, if any at all... They are cute! ^_^ I know how to bathe a dog much easier than a cat...and if I bathe him early he might get used to water and like baths. The most difficult thing would be potty training him............... My daddy showed me how on Chewy, but it's hard when you don't have a fenced-in backyard. I'd haveta take him out each day at different times rather than teaching him to bark at the door when he's gotta go out like we did for Chewy. The nice thing about the fence was we'd let Chewy out, he'd do his thing, and come back inside. I guess I'll just haveta wait... -_- oh well.. *sigh* Mayhaps one day. I've always wanted a husky puppy. They get to be such large dogs, though. Mayhaps I should just start small and see how well I can afford and handle a puppy, then one day I'll move up to a husky.

I'm gonna check the door again. It looks like it's getting pretty cloudy outside. Hopefully Jai will be home soon. Atleast I don't mind not doing much when he's around cuz I can just hang with him and not feel at all bored. ^_^ I love being around him. Heck, I sit up at work with him or bring him some lunch or dinner because I wanna be with him. I know, it may sound like a cheesey romance story but I love that boy soooo much!! =) I used to cook at home and enjoy cooking for my family even if it turned out crappy. ^_^() When I went to Disney I kinda fended for myself and made tv dinners and stuff all the time cuz it just wasn't fun cooking for one person. My roommate Marisa made this REALLY good pasta. I should get the recipe from her some time. Now that I have someone I'm around majority of the time, I like attempting to cook again. My pancakes have taken a few tries to look edible again, and I still can't flip a fried egg without it splitting into several pieces, but I'm trying. I like cooking desserts and breakfast foods and putting together a nice salad. The other stuff I'll leave to my chef. I wouldn't mind learning to cook more foods. I made a decent omlette today! Well, mine fell apart, so I turned it into scrambled eggs instead, but my second try work out much better. I gave the better one to Jai. ^_^() heh.

Checking the door again. *sigh* That would be a negative. So....what to do....I could try working on my white Padme shirt again....I got so frustrated with that thing a couple days ago...Even if I don't go to this Star Wars meeting at the Library, I atleast wanna figure out how to make this stitch look right.

Well, I'm off.

Take Care and God Bless!

So many pages! x_x

Alright... Soooo I did a cheesey survey... Now for a real update ^_^()

I got back online after Theatre Management and e-mailed my boss about the April dates I won't be in town. I also got on this dorky Spectrum thingy to find the fall line-up of classes and I found a 565 page list of the offered classes.............................. -_-() Whew... I know what I'll be doing tonight. I also need to read some of my History chapters for an upcoming test next Tuesday. Oh!! And guess what! I didn't fail my Theatre Management paper I turned in a few weeks back!! I'm soooooo excited!!! ^_________^

I just wanna pass everything this semester so I don't have people jumping down my throat... o.o ...and so I don't feel foolish for skipping classes so much...and so I graduate in December...

I'm just so sleepy today. I need an energy boost. Mayhaps I can go jogging later at the park down the street from the house. That'd be nice. I watched this reeaally retarded video called "Charlie the Unicorn..." Heh... ^_^() I laughed, though. If anyone wants a laugh, watch this video! I'm sure you can google it or you-tube it. It's really pointless, but I thought it was insanely funny.... like... someone was really on something when they made this video... But it's nothing bad! So don't worry about that... I don't even think there were any swear words or anything in it.

Anyhow, my headache is returning. So it is time to get outta this musty building and go call my baby to see what he's up to at work and if he had any luck selling anything today. Then, mayhaps I'll run to my storage unit and pull out all of my books. I have SO many... I just needta go through 'em all.

Take care and God Bless!

~P~
