Yesterday I got a REALLY bad headache, for about the last 2 hours of work... I was hoping it'd go away after I got home, but it didn't. I went to bed really early, after popping a few benadryl and ibuprofin. Seriously, it was bad.
Today was alright, I guess. I made a lot of money today at work... a whole lot of people were calling in to pay off their warrants. That was cool. I really hope I meet my monthly goal. It's $35,000 and so far, my total is around $21,000 or so... not including some checks that haven't posted. We'll see... I'm not really too worried... from what I've heard, most of the money supposedly comes in at the end of the month. I'm in 2nd place, so far, team wise. Yay!
I'm currently the top bidder on a U2 bumper sticker, for when I get a car. That auction ends tomorrow, around noonish. I like it, it's really cute. It's just black and white, oval, and says "U2." Yesterday, I bought a T shirt on eBay. Did I mention I love eBay?
I walked for one mile on the treadmill tonight, cuz I've been slackin on that. I feel very accomplished.
Right now, I'm slightly watching SouthPark, a rerun. I think another one comes on at 9, but I'm pretty sure it's a rerun... we'll see. If it is, I'll see whats on cartoon network. I usually watch Futurama and Family Guy, if I'm bored.
Shane called me at work today, about 10 minutes before I got off. It was really confusing. I answered, and he just said, "Hello." I totally thought he was a stupid debtor... very confusing. It made the last 10 minutes go by really fast though, so that was very cool. Another bonus - traffic wasn't as horrible as it usually is, on the way home. Excellent.
Tomorrow we have a baby shower at work for this one chick who I don't really know too well. I go to work at 11, and it's at 11:30, so I'm very excited about that. I'm bringing 2 gallons of punch, which I can't even drink any, cuz I'm on my diet again. :( I think there's gonna be chicken and/or tuna salad there, and I can have some of that... plus diet soda, so that's alright.
Michelle, you know that other girl at my work who's pregnant? Brianna... well, today, she was saying - all out loud, in front of our manager and everything, that she's thinking she's going to quit and get a minimum wage type job, cuz then she can have her baby for free, by getting government stuff... WIC, Medicare (or aid, whatever), etc., etc. Yeah. She was saying she calculated that w/ our health insurance (which I found out the company completely pays for, btw), it'll cost her $4,000 to have the baby... like, to actually HAVE it. Hmmmm.... interesting, eh? She's soooo into drama. I hope she does quit, though.... I decided that I really don't like her.
Thats all for now.

Today I went shopping w/ Michelle for clothes and stuff. We ate lunch at Firebowl, so I could get some of their AWESOME crab rangoons and eggrolls. Yum. Then we went to DSW (or, whatever it's called) and we both bought a purse. Mine is purple, just like the one Michelle already has, except mine has some suede on it. It's really cute. I like it. I also got a cute candle, for my desk at work, from Pier 1. Then we went to the ghetto mall, to JCPenneys. Michelle helped me pick out some cute outfits, and a pair of shoes there. The bitch at the register, who checked me out, didn't give me some rebate cards, and Michelle figured out that I should have gotten 3 of them, so I had to go back, and another dude hooked me up.
Some of my pants need to be hemmed, and I don't know how to do that. My mom said she could hem one pair of pants, but the other pants have a cuff, and I don't think she knows how to do that. We'll see.
I need to do laundry. Fun.

I'm feeling pretty lazy today. I did make myself clean up my room (it was pretty bad) and look for some jobs online ( I applied for a few ).
Yesterday was my Grandma's funeral. It was pretty nice. It's funny... I cried at the viewing, the day before, when I first got there and saw her, but yesterday I didn't cry. In the church part of the funeral home, though, you know how after the minister's done talking, the people all go up and walk past the casket to say goodbye, or whatever... well, my Grandma's old next door neighbor (they lived next to each other for about 30 years) walked up there and just started bawling. She almost made me cry, but not quite. That was really sad.
After that, and the short graveside service, we all went to a reception at this restaurant out in Oak Hill, about 10 mins away from the funeral place. That was really boring. We stayed there about 2 hours + or so. Very long.
So, anyway, like I said, I just feel really tired and lazy today... drained, really.
My Dad finally left back for Houston last night. He'd be in Austin since Friday. It was good seeing him, though.
So, this birthday wasn't a good one. My Mom got me a present and my cousin (the one up the street) got me a giftcard, too. Michelle got me a present, but I haven't gone over to her house yet to get it. No one else got me anything. Not too many people, actually, told me Happy Birthday. My Dad should have gotten me a present, though, I think. I mailed him a cool gift on his birthday a few months back. Oh, well.
OK, I need to clean the kitchen now. Good times.

Sooo... today I'm flying back to Austin. I hope that my flight won't be too horrible. I'll have Lola w/ me in her bag... last time I did that, it was pretty much a pain in the ass. I think that I have a layover in Houston for around an hour. I'm finishing up getting all of my stuff ready, today, too. It isn't fun. Shane's leaving work 1/2 an hour early, so we can make sure that I get to the airport on time. My flight leaves at 6:50 pm EST.
Michelle, you should call me during your lunch break if you read this by then.
Wish me good luck, guys. I'm sure I'll need it. Hopefully, today won't be too devestating.
I'm really sad.

I really need to talk to Michelle, but I don't know if she'll get her email I sent her asking her to call me when she's off work. The phone here won't call out (LD is blocked) and my calling card is maxed out......
Could someone please call her and tell her to call me???
Thanks!
Love yall!

So, tomorrow I have to go shopping to buy an "interview outfit." Dammit! I have to do this by myself w/o anyone else's opinion about what I buy! This sucks! Michelle, come here!

Well, today was pretty productive, really. I applied for quite a few secretary/receptionist type jobs. Shane got home and we decorated the outside of the house w/ lights. It looks pretty cool...we're maybe halfway done w/ everything we want to do. The lights are purple and orange....mainly purple, though. It took a long time to do and I got bit by a lot of mosquitos until I was able to spray the OFF! on. Ha.

Geez, I am so upset! So, today is our fun lawnwork day. Shane mowed and edged, and to help, I started to sweep the front sidewalks/driveway, after I got done weeding the flowerbeds. I'm about 1/2way done, and he finishes edging...he comes over to me and asks to see the broom. He doesn't do it in a mean way. So, I give him the broom and he goes OVER where I just swept. Apparently, I didn't do it correctly. I had swept some of the grass in the little bitty trench that he made by edging...you know, the little line next to the sidewalk and grass? Yeah. So he re-does the sweeping where, apparently, I fucked it up.
I'm sure you guys are thinking I'm just being retarded by posting this, (like, I'm sure you're rolling your eyes, Tommy) but it just makes you feel really bad when you're not able to sweep correctly, according to your significant other. I just hate it when he makes me feel shitty.
I wonder what else I'll do wrong today? Living perfectly is pretty fuckin hard to do.

A young redhead goes into the doctor's office and says that her body hurts wherever she touches it.
"Impossible," says the doctor. "Show me."
She takes her finger and pushes her elbow and screams in agony. She pushes her knee and screams, pushes her ankle and screams. Everywhere she touches makes her scream.
The doctor says, "You're not really a redhead, are you?"
"No," she says, "I'm actually a blonde."
"I thought so," the doctor says. "Your finger is broken."

Hi Michelle!

I just wanted to share that I'm currently attempting to grow out my eyebrows so I can actually go somewhere (for the 1st time, ever) and get them waxed. I'm gonna look pretty scary in a few days.
Michelle, you know how hard this will be for me, so wish me luck.
I am so excited about decorating the house for Halloween! Hopefully, we'll do that tomorrow evening... this weekend, the latest. We bought a few strands of lights, and some cool stuff to hang up/put out. Yay!
Current mood:  excited
So, Lola went to the vet today (I took the car). It was around $225.00 for everything... ouch. She got all her shots and tests and a year's worth of Heartguard (there was a price break for that much). Today was Shane's "real" first day of training. I'm not sure if he got the company car today or not...I need to call him in about 5 mins. to see if I need to pick him up at 5 or not. I did really well on my diet today, yay!
