even though i did. 07/30/2009 period started. technically it started at 10:45 last night, but i don't count that as a 'day'....and i ask you, who gets their period at 10:45pm?? i either wake up to it (GOOD MORNING!!) or it comes around lunchtime (MMMMMM!). ok so the reason i haven't been writing is that well.....i've kind of been just living my life instead of talking about it. but as yesterday was totally exciting, it's a good time to catch up. I GOT PROMOTED! :D i got a raise and they're going to hire someone to take my place. we are down to three of us now, and we're getting as many referrals as we were getting in march when they were thinking of hiring another person to help us. so we're swamped. truly, you've never seen anything like the caseload we manage. 750-800 new cases opened every month, and with the 6-7 months most of them take to get to court, we have roughly four THOUSAND cases open at any given time. this is why i laugh when whiny government employees call us from DOR or the clerks office and gripe about their caseload. they have one county to deal with, and we have three. i laugh even harder when stuck-up private attorney's assistants call up with their 15-case load and wonder why it takes us a couple of days to get back to them. i seriously love my job. i was so busy this morning that the first time i even looked up at the clock i'd cut 10 minutes into my lunch hour. unbelievable. so yes, work kicks ass! i officially have my AA degree. woo! it made my mom glow with happiness, so that actually made it worth it. i also spanked my trig class this summer and got an A. this is the fourth time i've taken it. the other three times were 10 years ago, when i got two F's and finally passed with a C. why go back and take it again? because it's bugged me all these years that i didn't understand it. it made me feel stupid and now i feel normal again. i also have been cleaning up my credit. there is really only one thing left on there, and i've disputed it because it was paid in full back in 2004. i can't figure out how i'm going to prove it since i don't have that bank account or the statement with that transaction on it, so we'll see how it goes. it's only for $1600, and it was from breaking my lease when i got laid off a hundred years ago and had to move back home. once that is gone i'll essentially have no credit history because i haven't done anything to build it in years. and my number is still pretty low, but it's going up. as i've been driving around town lately, i've been paying attention to the homes and apartment complexes and fantasizing about whether or not i'd like to live there. i'm really starting to think about getting a place of my own and living by myself again. the idea REALLY appeals to me these days, which has never happened to me before. i just spend so much time thinking about how i could be experimenting in the kitchen and growing houseplants and doing yoga naked in my living room that it's starting to become a real goal of mine. and i know i have a lot of time because i can't afford a thing right now, so i feel like that's good news, because i have tons of time to explore. beachside really appeals to me, and there are tons of little duplexes with fenced-in yards all up and down the coast. if i had a yard i could have a dog. a big dog. and probably a cat to be his friend. anyway, my wheels are turning. what else.....? my friend kym had some really scary health problems that started up a few months ago. she's only a few years older than me and so i was really freaked out for her. we hadn't been seeing much of each other for such a long time, so we're hanging out more now, which i'm loving. i really missed her. i played wii for the first time with her and rodney a couple weeks ago, and i LOVED it. i didn't think i would because i hated guitar hero (i SUCK at that game) but i was fascinated that i could bowl a spinner-ball just by rolling my wrist a little. i was kind of shocked that the graphics were lame, but the actually game-play is REALLY fun. golf is hard. just like in real life. i had katie last weekend. my grandma and i had dinner at my aunt's house last friday night and she came home with me to spend the night. saturday i was trying to think of things to do to keep us both entertained and out of the heat, so we hit every indoor playground in town. she played with a ton of other kids, had a great time, and we sang biz markie's energy song about a billion times. that's her favorite. i like skee-lo's mr. morton. because mr. morton is the subject of my sentence, and what the predicate say, he does. she crashed at 7:30 that night :) my birthday is next week, and i'm extremely excited :) me and daniel are sharing birthdays this year, so we're making our mom make us chicken and dumplings. i let him pick the cake because he's picky and hates chocolate. he voted for white or yellow cake and wasn't particularly interested in the icing, so i told my mom to get strawberry. then he'll have a big pink and white birthday cake. she's also going to make a cookie-sheet cake, otherwise jokingly referred to as 'the crisco and sand cake' because of the sugary texture the icing took on one year by complete accident. it's actually not sickeningly sweet, which is why we all love it. my cousin andy is coming with the twins, because no one loves my mom's chicken and dumplings more than he does. i'm excited about that because then i'll have some kids to swim with :) also, my niece, fatalie, will be there. i'll have to get a new picture of us. her michelin legs defy the laws of science and cuteness. there's nothing else really to say. i deleted my myspace account, so if your friend-count came up short recently and i was on your list, that's who is missing. i also created another okcupid profile that i'm still experimenting with. now that i feel over my mommy and daddy issues and i've been well free of any feelings for anyone in my past for quite a while, i think it's safe to start looking around again. we'll see how it goes. i haven't been sleeping with anyone and it's been WONDERFUL. it's been so many months since i had sex, i can't even remember the last time or who it was with. i really feel like i've left that part of my life behind, and that feels incredible. it's just nice having myself to myself. i treat me better than anyone else ever has. so yep, there it all is. maybe in another month i'll write again. | ||||||||||
