I can't believe my brother forgot my mother's birthday. Well, I guess I kind of can. I'm just in shock, because that is super shitty. Meanwhile, I took her, Doug, and my grandparents out for dinner yesterday. It was very nice.
Yesterday while packing I noticed baby spiders all over my plastic bin. Earlier in the day a large spider fell onto my leg while I was walking inside, and there was also one crawling across the pillow on the couch. Awesome. The only thing that I am scared of was surrounding me. Eww.
Packing and working. Packing and working. Packing and working.
I thought summer break was supposed to be fun, exciting, and relaxing?

It's a gorgeous day outside today - 74 degrees, sunny, light breeze, not a fucking cloud in sight.
Last night my astronomy class was actually fun. We got to go outside and use the telescopes, because it was a nice night out for one. No clouds, rain, etc. but the mosquitos chewed me up pretty bad. Note to self, bring bug spray next time. We got to see a cloud nebula, galaxy and cluster of stars, Saturn, Jupiter, the zodiacs, and most of the constellations. Overall, very fun. It's amazing how fast some of those things move.
Found a new apartment. It's a lot cheaper AND nicer, even though we're going to from a 2 br to a 1 br...they are seriously about the same size. The new one has more of an open floor plan, and it also has the high cathedral ceilings. I was impressed, and this way we'll be able to save three grand just in rent. I'm sure i know where we could use that money - honeymoon! All in all, it's a relief that we found a place. Apartment/house hunting is tough stuff. Originally we were going to rent a 3 br house w/ a 4 stall garage for my guy to work in, but we couldn't surpass the difference in rent. We may have to store some of our stuff at his dad's place though, but no biggie. We also don't have to buy a washer/dryer right now either, the apt. comes with them. I'm excited.
I quit my job at Hallmark finally. The bitch wouldn't give me my days off for August, she told me I'd have to re-arrange my schedule. She left me a five minute long voicemail bitching me out and it seriously made me cry. GAAH. I called her back and told her i'm unable to change my schedule (family reunion, two weddings, my wedding dress shopping...). I only have a two week break before I start my full time school schedule, so she can just give me a fucking break here. So I told her that and she said she'd have to hire someone else then and I said sounds good. Done the end of July. If she's a bitch to me in person i'll tell her to fuck off and fill the rest of my shifts. I HATE THAT PLACE. She wonders why 5 out of 8 employees have quit now, haha. Nooo, it's not her.
On a lighter note, I'm going tubing down the river back at home on Saturday! Should be good times with friends, good food, and lots of beer. Can't wait, I need a little bit of fun back into my routine. In two weekends i'm going to a Tigers game in Detroit with four friends, staying the night, then going to see Incubus the next day in Auburn Hills. CAN'T WAIT! It's one friend's bday too, so it should be a real good time.
Slaving away at school and two jobs (wait, almost one now) is putting a damper on my summer, seriously.

GAAH.
I hate being a responsible individual, it takes the fun out of most everything.

Damn do I miss this. It makes me sad.
I'm in a rather odd mood tonight. Low-key weekend by myself. It's unfortunate that I have to spend my time rotting away at work, but I suppose I do need the money. I'm on straight through Wed. night. Picked up about 25 extra hours.
I have a week break from school now. I had my last finals on Thursday, so that is a relief.

Life is going well. I got engaged over the past holidays, found a new job, and am doing okay. Planning a wedding for next May as of late.
Looking forward to this summer: Incubus in Detroit, Metallica in G.R.
Should be a good time.

I'm not dead (yet) - just have been very busy. I've had a nasty cold for the last three weeks, and on top of that I managed to get a UTI. Lovely timing! I guess not a whole lot of things have been happeningl lately. School takes up most of my time. I go pretty much all day, and then when i get home i have to do homework all night.
I've discovered how expensive groceries are, as well as gas. Boo.
Halloween was okay, I didn't do a whole lot. Hung out with a bunch of our guy friends, drank some beer and played Super Smash Bros. on the N64.
My mother is moving back home, because she almost tried to kill herself. Yeah, she's not doing so well. I found her an apartment that is close to me, so now i will be able to see her every day if needed.
That is how exciting my life is.

Finally found an internet/tv provider for our apartment. Our management people told us one person, then they told us another...was definitely another hassel. I will be moving in for good next Friday. My last day of work is that following Wednesday. Everything is coming up so fast, it's almost making me nervous.

Well, I got all of the paperwork done for the new place. I switched the electric over in my name, and tried to switch the gas but the cunt wouldn't let me finish the process over the phone. Now I have to figure out a way to get down to the closest building, which is an hour away. I have three days to do this by, or I get slapped w/ a 25.00 fee each day after that. Sweet. Hopefully I can leave work monday or tuesday early, the office conveniently closes at four pm. I also have no idea where it is, and I get really nervous driving through city traffic. Sounds like an anxiety attack just waiting for me next week. But anyway, I didn't know switching over utilities would be such a hassle.
Way to put a damper on this beautiful Saturday afternoon, asshole utility people.

Well, a bunch of us tried to go camping this weekend. Obviously it didn't work out, since I'm at home on the computer. We brought up the 5th wheel, two quads, dirtbike, and the trucks. The others brought the camper and quads, and there was two clusters of tents. We arrived the latest, and when we finally got there the manager was a dick. Then...we didn't have power at all at our site. Awesome, huh. The asshole took our power and ran it out with extension cords halfway across the damn campground, because the people way out paid for the non-power spots but paid extra for the power. So that was such a clusterfuck, we didn't even get situated until about 11:30 - two hours of fighting with the fucking manager, while the rest of our friends are having a damned good time. Then the dude made us put the fire out at twelve, or he'd call the cops. That made half of our crew pack up and leave right there.
Yep, it was shitty. We left and got a refund for tonight, but we're going to drive up there and play around in the dunes still. Hopefully that is fun still.
