My grandfather has fallen very ill. He currently has Pnemonia real bad, and he can't feel his leg or walk... My parents can't understand or hear what he's saying real well... He has a tendancy to bounce back, but he keeps going down hill... They don't think he's going to make it this time.

Please, whatever you believe in, keep him in your prayers/thoughts/whatever... I really am hoping he bounces back again...

It's why I haven't been updating lately... Hopefully I'll update soon... and with happier news...

[ mood | uncomfortable ]

So I finally got a call yesterday from the doctor about my ankle. The xray came back clear. WTF? I still can't walk. Yesterday I was on crutches all day. Today, I forgot them unfortuently. The doctor told me if it's still hurting in a few weeks, to go to an orthopedic doctor. I'm sorry, but I'm not waiting a few weeks.

This past week has been pretty hard, but there's a few special people who have been making it so much more bareable. Chris has helped me an incredibly deal. I was off of work on Wednesday because I hurt so bad, and after he woke up, he walked over to spend some time with me so I didn't have to drive. It meant a great deal to me, that he would do that for me. He's just been very sweet and helping me as much as possible, even when I refuse to ask for help. It just reiterates my love for him. <3 My parents have also been very helpful, in the fact that they won't let me do anything either. Then here at work, 2 of my coworkers have been more than helpful. I guess this is just a mass thank you to everyone because I don't say it nearly enough for how much I appreciate all of you. Thank you for helping me out so much. I hate being so helpless, and not being able to do anything, but you guys are really helping me out and it means a great deal to me.

On another note, my grandfather fell the other evening at his assitant living place. He was hurting something fierce and they ended up taking him to the hospital yesterday for a cat scan. He was there from something like 2 pm until 1130 last night, they were so backed up. They did the cat scan and it turns out he broke his butt bone. He's OK, but he can't walk all that well. Other than that, he's fine.

Speaking of my grandfather, my parents have been going through his garage lately, and his china closet, pulling out dishes and stuff. Luckily, it seems like when I move out (whenever that may be), I'll have dishes and some other crystal ware to get me started so I won't have to worry quite as much when I move out to stock up the kitchen. It just means that's a little bit more that I can afford to spend on the rest of the house, instead of having to worry about plates and stuff. So that'll be nice. Some of the stuff is very pretty.

Anyways... off to go read A Farewell to Arms... Hopefully it isn't too bad and quick reading. I think I need to have it done by this weekend or next weekend. o.O

[ mood | sore ]

I hurt my ankle something fierce over the weekend. I don't know what I did to it, but all of a sudden Saturday morning, I couldn't walk. I had to lean on Chris almost the whole weekend, or if I wasn't, I was randomly grabbing onto him because I was about to fall. Luckily I got a doctors appointment yesterday. Due to my ankle being messed up, I didn't get to do a lot this weekend. I spent time with Chris, though, which I love that more than anything.

Yesterday I went to the doctors, and Chris went with me. He knew I didn't want to go in the first place, yet I had to go, so he told me to wake him up when I was leaving, and he would go and sit with me. The doctor more or less said that he thinks that I either did something to my ligaments or I have a stress fracture, so I went to get xrays yesterday. I'll find out today if I broke something or not. But in the meantime, I have to stay off my ankle for the next week or two. Whoo-frekin'-hoo. No dance for me. And I shouldn't be bowling either, but... I probably will anyways. Just will have to be careful.

It's so nice to have someone who supports me. Chris hates the doctors more than anything, and he hates even just sitting there, but he went for me, because he knew I didn't want to be there alone. It's so nice to be dating someone who will support you, and be there for you when you need them. He made my day when he said he'd go... and it was his idea, I never even brought it up to him. It just means so much to me. That kind of stuff is the reason why I love him so much. <3




I have so much homework I need to do. I have an essay due tomorrow that I haven't even started yet. Anyone want to write it for me? Then I have a novel that I was suppose to have read by yesterday. Or at least part of it read. I didn't know about this. Why doesn't anyone tell me this kind of stuff? I'm so behind on my classwork, and I just need to get caught up. But it's hard with work because I just get overwhelmed with everything. I was suppose to get stuff done yesterday when I was off of work, but we had a transformer blow, and it was the one that the internet ran through, so... needless to say, it's hard to do online classes when you don't have internet. Didn't get it back until about an hour and a half before I was suppose to leave, and at that point I was so burnt out from reading my CJ book, I just kinda sat there and messed around on the computer. Hopefully I'll be able to get some stuff done this weekend, though.

This is a short week, and I am glad of that. I have so much stuff I have to do, and the last place I want to be right now is work. I think today, I'm going to go home and take a nap. We shall see...

Oh, and according to the doctors office, I've lost 5 pounds since I was there 2 weeks ago. So, not a lot, no, but it's definitally a step in the right direction. Whoo!

[ mood | cold ]

Today is one of those days at work. You know, the type of day when it's a holiday weekend, and there's only 4 people out of 15 in the office. And out of those 4 people, 1's deaf, 1's a psycho bitch, 1's the ice princess, and the other is me. So I'm all holed up here, all alone. I have reading for college to do but it's not holding my interest. I brought my CD's in, though, luckily, so at least I have some noise for distraction.




The weather today is really nasty. It's cold, grey, dreary, and rainy. Yet I'm still in somewhat of a decent mood. No idea why, but I am. And I like that fact. Tonight Chris and I are going out to dinner to Chevy's, and then afterwards (as long as I don't feel sick), I'm hoping to play DDR... The new DDR came out well over a week ago, and I still haven't gotten a chance to play it. It makes me sad. So I'm hoping to have some time after I work on my homework. If not tonight, maybe I'll play tomorrow. I'm finally mostly caught up on my school work, but I can't fall behind again. School is most important, so I really want to try to get ahead. But lately I've been finding it so hard to sit down and concentrate on anything. All I want to do is lay down and take a nap if I'm not at work. But even then, I still want to sleep. I think I need to exercise more, move more, do something more, just to keep my energy up. It'll also help keep me in shape, which I really need to work on.




I decided yesterday, I'm going to lose 30 pounds by the end of February. I'm starting tomorrow. I'd start today, but I've already been bad food wise. I'm going to serious limit my intake of Soda. I'm going to stop eatting junk food, and eat healthy. I'm also going to start going to bed earlier ~ I'm going to shoot for going to bed by 10 on Monday-Wednesday, by the latest 1030. Apparently the less sleep you get, the more likely you are to gain weight. Besides, that way I might be able to wake up at 530. And if I wake up at 530, then I can do some exercise before I have to leave for work. In theory it sounds like a good plan, I'm just hoping I can pull it off. On top of that, I'm going to try and play more DDR or walk more or something. Maybe on nice days I'll walk during lunch. /nod It could work.




Halloween is less than 4 weeks away. I'm going to be a pirate! I got my top the other day, and it's awesome!
Halloween Costume
That's the shirt I got. (No, not a picture of me... that's soon to come, though.) All I need is to get myself a bandana of some sort, which I might be having made for me. And I need to get a skirt or some pants... I'm lost, though, on where I can find something that would work. Any suggestions?

Chris is planning on being a Murloc. He was going to be the hamburgler but he changed his mind.

Murlock

That would be a murloc. He just needs to figure out how to pull it off now.




Off to go try and finish my reading... Enough random nonsense and babble from me...

[ mood | stressed ]

I’ve been busy the past few days, between work and catching up with school and the incredible amount of stress I’ve been under. I just really haven’t had much chance to do anything. I was about 2 weeks behind in my english class. Why? Because by the time I would get home from work, after staring at a computer screen all day and doing other random stuff, the last thing I felt like doing was reading out of my english book with its small as hell print. But that’s OK! I finally caught up and the teacher was cool with it, so that works.

All I’ve wanted to do lately after work is go home and lie down, and take a nap. I’ve been getting so tired and stressed out lately and it’s been ridiculous. There’s nothing I can do to relax or to de-stress myself really, outside of taking my mind away from things. And even then, that doesn’t always work. I’ve been pulling myself closer and closer to Chris ~ both physically and emotionally. Which I’m very glad about. Normally when I get stressed, I push people away, and I don’t want anyone near me. I tend to yell or to get upset or cranky. Yes, I’ve been over emotional lately, and the most random stuff will upset me and make me cry. Like this past weekend, all Friday night and Saturday I was randomly depressed and had no idea why. Then I realized why I was upset, and the reason I was upset was so stupid, and it was also pretty selfish. I felt bad about it upsetting me, because it’s something that really shouldn’t have upset me, but it did. I got that all worked out, though, and things are better. I have a big problem with communication ~ as in if something’s bothering me, or if I have a problem with something, I tend not to say anything and just sit back and let it happen anyways. Or if I want to do something, I won’t say anything if the other person already has plans. And if I’m upset, I’ll never say why ~ nor will I tell the person I’m upset with most of the time, for fear of screwing things up. And that’s what I did Saturday. I’m going to try and work on that, I swear.

Things seem to be spiraling out of control. I have so many things I want to do, so many things in life I want to do, yet I already seem like I’ve lost my chance. Why do I feel like I’ve lost my chance? I feel like I’m too old. I’m frekkin 19 years old (almost 20), and I already feel old. There’s something wrong with that. Sometimes I feel like I was robbed of my childhood ~ I did a lot of things as a child, yes, but it seems like I had to mature and grow up way too fast sometimes. I didn’t get very many chances to be immature and have carefree fun with my friends, and sometimes I feel like I missed out. I try not to dwell on the past, but it can’t be helped sometimes.

I have an essay I need to write. It’s due next Wednesday and I haven’t started on it yet. I don’t even know what I have to write about. And my topic is due tonight. Man I’m awesome. I should get started on that.

Thank god it’s Thursday. That means the week is almost over. I have a long weekend this weekend, hell yeah. Yay for Columbus. Go explore new lands or something, and get us more days off.

[ mood | thoughtful ]

For the longest time in high school, and even last year, I was depressed. It was one of those things that was there, and was hard to shake. But I finally did. Every now and then, sometimes a touch of that will come back. The feelings that I get when I'm depressed, the lack of motivation, the lack of wanting to do anything, the random mood swings where I just sit around and just feel down all the time.

But I've realized, that the reason I was always depressed before... a majority of my friends were takers. Whenever they needed anything, whether it is someone to listen to them, or if they needed to borrow some money, or help with school, I'd be there for them. Yet, whenever I needed help with anything, they all went the other direction. They had something better to do than talk to me or to help me with anything. The day my ex and I broke up, I tried to call one of my really good friends. The one that I was always there for more than anything. We broke up on a Sunday in the middle of the afternoon. I left a message on her voice mail asking her to call me back when she got a chance. She finally called me back on a Tuesday night. Yet, when her boyfriend broke up with her 2 weeks later, she called me at 5 AM on a Saturday (I don't go to bed until 2 or 3 on Friday's because I spend my Friday nights with Chris.) I woke up and I talked to her for an hour. And then that night, Chris and I drove up to the city to sit with her and try to cheer her up, and when we got there, she disappeared for an hour and left us to sit alone outside.

These are the kind of people that I use to have in my life. Lately, though, I've been weeding out most of these people. I don't need people like that in my life, who just unload on me and who aren't there for me.




This weekend was a wonderful weekend. On Saturday, Chris and I went to the renaissance festival with Chris's best friend Jack, Chris's older brother and his girlfriend. We were there for 3 or 4 hours, and I had such a good time just being around good people. People who don't really expect much out of me other than being me. Unfortunately I forgot my camera, or I'd have pictures of everyone. I forgot it somehow when we left the house on Saturday.




I love being with Chris, I love being around Chris. He makes my life complete. Being with him makes me so happy, and just so fulfilled. Like on Saturday, he called to wake me up so I could let him into the house when he got off of work. I had to leave for bowling in an hour and had Gray's Anatomy recorded from the day before, so I sat there and watched it, and he watched most of it with me. I dropped him off at his house when I left for bowling, because he was really worn out, and when I was finished, I went back to his house to lay down with him and we both fell asleep until we heard from Jack about 2 hours later. He finally made it home from college for the weekend, and was ready to head up to renn fest if we were. So we got up and left, and went to go pick him up. We had a great time hanging out, and when we left, I took a little longer way home that didn’t have so much traffic. After we dropped Jack off, we went back to Chris’s house, turned on the TV and just laid down again. At some point we went and got dinner, but then came back and watched a movie and drifted off until I had to go home.

Chris makes me so incredibly happy, and that’s the kind of days why he does. We don’t necessarily do much of anything, but it’s just being together. Being around each other. Being with him makes me realize just how lucky I am, and how lucky I am to have such a wonderful guy like him. I care about him, so incredibly much, and I know he cares just the same. He’s someone who’s willing to be there for me when I need him, and he’s someone who I want to be there for no matter what, through thick and thin, and not because I have to. But because I want to.

Good friends and good people ~ it’s what is needed to help people through this life.

So...

My cavaliers gone...

Tis a sad, sad day.

The car may have pissed me off from time to time, but it was a good car. It was my first major purchase. And I'm going to miss it.

Hopefully it'll do well to the new owners, as it did to me.

It's Friday, and I'm leaving work in 45 minutes. Whoo. My plans for tonight? Leave here, go home, get my laptop, go to Chris' and do homework. Go back to my house, and do more homework.

Tomorrow is renn fest! Pirate weekend. Should be fun. =) Going to go with Chris, Jimmy, and Sarah. Should be good times...

Back to work... Busy again today.

[ mood | lazy ]

Work has been very very busy lately. To the point of breaking hell. I've only been able to get half of the stuff I need to get done in a day done, and what am I doing right now? Procrastinating, of course. I don't have anything to say, I just... don't feel like working.

Gray's Annatomy starts tonight, and Desperate Housewives starts Sunday... NCIS Started Tuesday... I love season premiers. Gray's Annatomy looks soo good. Too bad I won't be able to watch it until this weekend, thanks to dance tonight.

I have so much college work to do. I have no idea when I'll be able to get it all done. When I get off work tomorrow, I'm going to just have to sit down and do nothing but college. Ew. So much CJ to catch up on and a play to read for English... Only good news is that I read the play in high school so that should make it easier.

Someone's test driving my Cavi right now... and my mom just got another call that someone is "very interested" if the guy test driving my car doesn't buy it. It makes me kind of sad to be parting with my car... but It'll be for the better good. It'll help me establish my bank account again, and it'll pay off my downpayment for my eclipse... Building my bank account back up is a good thing because it means that there's more of a possibility that Chris and I can move out eventually. Things are so expensive around here though. /sigh

A little mushiness to start off the morning [Sep 21st, 2006 - 8:49]
[ mood | loved ]

(This was written by a guy)

Don't break this; it's so sweet! :)

1. They will always smell good even if it's just shampoo.
2. The way their heads always find the right spot on our shoulder.
3. How cute they look when they sleep.
4. The ease in which they fit into our arms .
5. The way they kiss you and all of a sudden everything is right in the world.
6. How cute they are when they eat.
7. The way they take hours to get dressed but in the end it makes it all worth while.
8. Because they are always warm even when its minus 30 outside.
9. The way they look good no matter what they wear.
10. The way they fish for compliments even though you both know that you think she's the most beautiful girl on this earth.
11. How cute they are when they argue.
12. The way her hand always finds yours.
13. The way they smile.
14. The way you feel when you see their name on the call ID after you just had a big fight.
15. The way she says "lets not fight anymore" even though you know that an hour later....
16. The way that they kiss after you have had a fight.
17. The way they kiss you when you say "I love you".
18. Actually...Just the way they kiss you...
19. The way they fall into your arms when they cry.
20. Then the way they apologize for crying over something that silly.
21. The way they hit you and expect it to hurt.
22. Then the way they apologize when it does hurt (even though we don't admit it).
23. The way they say "I miss you".
24. The way you miss them.
25. The way their tears make you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt her anymore...

Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them it matters not. Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound, you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of her very heart. We love them for a million reasons, no paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of the heart.
A feeling.
Only felt.

[ mood | happy ]

I had a doctors appointment this morning. Oh the fun. So I had to come in late for work ~ Which is never a bad thing. I got an extra hour and a half of sleep this morning! Had to wake up before Chris got off, though, so I could take him home. When he got off, we went back to his house and laid down and watched TV for the next two hours. It was so nice. Just laying there and being in his arms, I've never felt so comfortable, so safe, so loved in my life. It put me in such a good mood.

I went to the doctors... I thought I had been losing weight, but according to their scale I haven't. I've just put it on. So according to their scales, I want to try and lose 50 pounds. It's going to be hard, but it's something I feel like I should do. At least 30... I'd be happy with 30. Now I just need to find a way to do it. My blood pressure was also really high... Hopefully that's just because I was nervous though. It sucked. But over all, a good visit. And now I have a new doctor. He's young and nice, and seems to know what he's talking about. That's all that matters.

This weekend is pirate weekend at ren fest. Yargh! Chris and I are going to go, and going to see if his brother and his brothers girlfriend want to go with us. It should be good times. Hopefully going to take pictures and post pictures.

How's everyone today??

I never cease to amaze myself... Somehow last night, I managed to sprain my ankle.

No, I know how I did it, I just can't believe I was stupid enough to LET it happen. Or that I was clumsy enough to let it happen. I was at dance last night and I just fell and stumbled and somehow managed to sprain my ankle. It doesn't feel too good. But ces't la vie...

I have so much homework. College has started full force and... I don't have enough time in the day to get everything done. Work has been busy as all get out lately, and I haven't had a chance to even do my class work during lunch. Then when I've been getting home, with how stressful work has been, I've been tired and haven't felt like doing anything at all... Not even my gaming. I've been getting irritable and grumpy, and the only thing I want to do anymore is be with Chris.

It's bad, I need to figure something out to motivate me. I'm afraid I'm starting to fall into the same slump I was in a few months ago, and I can't do that again. But then again, I'm also hoping that since I'm thinking and realizing it, I'll be able to stop it before it happens. It's no good.

But hey, it's Friday. That has to be good for something, right?

Some of you know I went to Florida last week. Originally I was planning on updating every day from Florida, complete with pictures and everything. But... that didn't happen.

But! Now I am back. Florida was a good time. We left at 6 am on Friday the 1st morning, and got back around 3 PM on Sunday the 10th. Over all, it was a good time. I got really burnt on Tuesday, though, and I could hardly walk for the next 2 days. I fell asleep on the beach for a few hours. >.< I shall be posting pictures of the horrible sunburn soon. Then... other than that, we rented a boat on Thursday, and went around the inner coastal water way and ended up seeing some manatees and dolphins. So much fun.

Other than that... we went swimming in the ocean, went in the pool a few times, I managed to beat my dad in a game of pool, yay for that... And other than that, didn't do much.

I had a good time, but I'm glad to be back. I missed Chris like whoa, and am just glad to be back with him.

Since I've been back, I managed to spend almost an entire years salary in 1 day... I bought myself a new car on Monday. I bought a 2007 Eclipse. It's a gorgous car, and I love it. I still need to take pictures, and unfortently it's suppose to be raining for the next two days, but I'll post pictures ASAP.

Not much else to update other than that. Works going well... But I'm still considering getting a new job. I really want to get a midnight position. It would make school a lot easier, and it's better pay. Also, it would give Chris and me more options when the time comes to move out, since the whole transportation gig is an issue.

All the little kiddies started back to school today ~ yipee. That means I have to start leaving earlier for work to avoid all the traffic. Ah well, maybe it'll make the neighborhood a little safer again. I doubt it, but maybe.

I got my car back yesterday ~ the water pump was busted. A 575$ part. >.> After just putting 650$ into it to fix the transmission. Well Dad managed to talk them into getting me a refurbished water pump for 280$. So yay for that. I'm going to start looking for a new car when I get back from Florida.

We're leaving Friday morning early for Florida. /sigh Not realy looking forward to it. Yeah, I'm sure I'm going to have a good time. And Yes, it'll only be for a week (Well... Friday morning - Sunday afternoon a week later) but still... I'm going to miss Chris a lot. I don't like leaving people. At all. At least I have my laptop now, though, so that'll make it easier to talk to him.

Other than that... I started college yesterday. The classes seem like it'll be a lot of reading, but I think I'll be alright. The criminal Justice class has a 100-200 word summary due every week along with a few questions that have to be answered. The English class is pretty much the same way. Just have to read and then discuss. And then there are 5 essays for that class. It shouldn't be too bad, hopefully.

It's still cold in here. It's very cold... and Ihave my hoodie today. I'm going to go huddle up in the corner with my book and try to keep warm...

It's 59 degrees in my office. And I'm surviving off of less than 5 hours of not-so-restful sleep. What could make it better?

I woke up and the dog had crapped all over the house.

I took my shower and went downstairs and started talking to Chris, and he was feeling so sick.

Oh, and my car's in the shop. AGAIN.

This time it's leaking anti-freeze. My whole radiator went from Full on Thursday to Bone Dry yesterday.

Whoo-frekkin-hoo.

I'm tired of this damned car. When I get back from Florida I'm going to look into buying a new one.

Oh yeah, that's right. If Florida is still THERE. There's a huricane heading straight up the coast. Suppose to hit within the next few days.

Yay for life.

/sigh

On a better note ~ I saw Step Up yesterday. It was SUCH a good movie. The dancing was amazing. The acting was awesome. It was just great. Go see it. Now. I don't care what you're doing, drop it and go see it.

Other than that... not much to report.

So... I think I might start playing WoW again...

It's all Chris' fault... I quit back when he did, because I didn't really always care for the game. And I didn't have any one to play with anymore when he stopped. But now he's talking about going back. And I'm REALLY in the mood for some good PvP. FFXI's PvP sucks. I die. Repeatedly. At least in WoW's PvP, I have some sort of chance.

So now he has me in the mood to PvP on WoW again.

So... yeah.

I think I might be going back to the game that was created by the spawn of satan. >.<

We shall see...

So wow... I go from updating every day or two times a day to over 2 weeks before I post again. >.<

I've been very busy at work and at home. Hoping that this week won't be so bad at work ~ there's only 4 of us here most of the week. So... we'll see.

But yeah...

I'm really tired of the jackasses in my neighborhood. Now... one thing you have to realize about my neighborhood ~ it's a safe neighborhood. We've never had problems in it. Yes, there was a burnt body a few months ago, but thats the only real thing that's happened since 1990ish. But the past 2 months have been bad. First, Chris got jumped walking to work. And then, Friday a week ago, they broke into my car. Attempted to steal my radio. Only got the face plate, though, which won't do them any good. Much like how they only got 4$ and a deactivated cell phone from chris. It was agitating as all get out.

And then sometime last week, they started to knock over trashcans. They threw a bag of trash up on my uncles car. And they ripped a bag of trash down the road open and spread it all down the road. It's just... bad. The worst of all was Chris getting jumped.

Then Saturday night when I was taking Chris home... there was about 12 of Them walking into the 7-11. Now... I'm not trying to be racist or stereotypical or anything... But the neighborhood that backs up to my neighborhood is all section 8 housing. Highrises from the ghetto in Baltimore that got knocked down and they all got moved into the townhouses behind where we live. Needless to say, that neighborhood is primarily black. And it's not a neighborhood you want to walk through normally. They have never really bothered with my neighborhood. But now they are. So there was about 12 of them walking into the 7-11... All in white tee shirts and baggy blue jeans. All older teenagers. I have *never* see a group of kids from that neighborhood 1) that large and 2) all wearing the same thing. Nor have I ever seen anyone from that neighborhood wearing white. They always *ALWAYS* wear jerseys or black. I saw this when I was driving Chris home at 1130 at night.

So now we have a gang. Just frekin fantastic.

It's been very agitating. There's nothing anyone can do about it. It's all been minor enough stuff that they can't really take them to jail or anything. I mean, they might be able to for jumping Chris, but other than that, there really isn't much. It's all been petty theft.

It's just sad when you can't even walk out of your own house at night because you fear for your safety...
