Everyone seemed to have left blurty, so there seemed no point to update. However, no one was online so I started to mess with the layout... I could not come up with one that even looked halfway decent so I am left with a generic one. I like it though, the generic stuff. I got all different icons too. They are expressions, and cute ones at that. I went Christmas shopping again today... I cannot wait until the 12th so I can finish it all off... it's kind of stressful. Gr! Tomorrow is the Texans game against the Atlanta Falcons. I am going to say that the Texans will win this one! :) I like that overtime business. Mark is off tomorrow so I am probably stopping by there after the game to chill. I do not need to be home right after the game... so maybe we can stop to get a bite to eat somewhere or watch a movie. I still do not know the reason why I list things in my journal. I do not even remember who is on my friend's list. Um, this could be bad.

One word to sum up the weekend... teehee, just terrific! Fantastically wonderful! :D I sound like some god damn tourist talk'n about the gorgeous city of Houston (which does not exist, heh.) Per se, I am not kidding with this business, total seriousness, you see? Shall I go into detail while scratching my sunburn? I went outside today, omgomgomg! Wait, not quite outside, but kind of, you see? I was off on Friday, but Target drug me into the horrific place. I worked four hours and it about killed me. It was hell x10! I worked and talked to Mark for a while, but had to be back at work at 8 am so I went to bed and woke up early. I have been sleeping excellent lately. That is also why I am filled with energy, stress free is lovely! Saturday comes and my love came over and we played around for a bit (took pictures and acted retardedly stupid): made popcorn and popped in Identity. THE MOVIE IS PERFECT, RENT IT! He left around 1 am because I had to be at the game early this morning and my plans were ruined. My sister ended up not showing up so I spontaneously invited Jose and we were on our way for an adventurous day! We went to the game, which they won in the last two god forsaken seconds. And listen to this, the referees kept throwing flags but they were against the Jaguars. So, we were already at the four-yard line so we kept getting closer yard by yard. Finally we were at the one-yard line and David Carr kept passing the god-forsaken ball. I was getting infuriated. He just needed to run it! Finally he just jumped over everyone and got the touchdown for the winning play, 24-20. We were going to go see Mark, but he had to go to work thirty minutes after we got out of the stadium, I wish we could have. Jose and I went to Fiesta to pick up ice cream and ate at McDonald’s. We both complained about being sun burnt and got home to watch The Hours. I wrote down all of the things that I want to buy myself for Christmas; I will probably never get around to getting them, but hell, who cares? I am in bliss. But, just wait until tomorrow and then let’s see if my mood has changed. =)

P.S. My boyfriend is perfect, heh.

"The best advice I was given was to never tell anyone anything that was wrong with me." So, here goes this god awful try of not talking a crock of shit about myself.

I drove to Mark's house yesterday right after school. We laid there for the two hours that we were waiting for his mom to get off work so we could take her to dinner. We ended up going to Chili's, mm mmm good! We planned on going to the bowling alley, but he did not seem thrilled about it so we went back to the house until I convinced him otherwise that bowling rules at life. We drove quite a ways before we found a bowling alley that we passed up four times before actually finding it. I asked for directions, yes, me, the girl. Heh, so we eventually found the hidden bowling alley which was packed with white trash :D teehee... we were minorities and scared. :\ They told us that there would not be a lane open until 10:30 and it was only 9:00. We ended up at another bowling alley thirty minutes later bowling our lives away. We played twice until it was the bowl-a-thon and it cost $11 to bowl until 2 am. He wanted to, but I had to work at 10 am so we played a game of pool. I forgot to mention that I ruled at bowling and beat him by far the first game and won by two points on the second. He got a god forbidden strike on his first try of bowling. He rules the world, well, at least mine. We went back to his house and watched Little Nicky which I definitely recommend for anybody, very corny and sweet. I loved it almost as much as Mark, teehee. I think he is rubbing off on me or vice versa. Corniness rulesss the universe. His mother was still awake when we got home and she stayed up to make us tea, very sweet. So, we headed off to bed and set the clock for eight this morning. We woke up, ate frosted flakes, laid there, and talked until about 9:20. I had to be at work by 10:30, so I began my journey to my grand ol' job. On my way home I observed this god forsaken surburban that got pulled over and once he was driving off and back on i-45 he started speeding again. What the hell was he thinking? I sped a little bit today by 5 mph. I got so paranoid.

Of course I thought about Mark while I was driving and god forbid, let me tell you something amazingly fantastic! (:D) ...take this as some kind of advice. Never set standards for what is outside of your boundaries could be what truly satisfies you. It is true. Limitless things are ideal for you can make them the way that you please. Mark is everything I ever asked for... smart, good looking, honest, nice, and charming. Wow, and here it was right in front of me and I took that opportunity although things that usually would stop me didn't that time. Fate or not, I thank whatever it was. I am the luckiest girl and no, I do not mean that in any naive way, for I mean that with an open heart. If I had heels on, they'd be over my head right now, heh. ;)

Guess who came and saw me at my job today? Judy did! How very exciting it was. They did not have an operator today for they did not schedule one and so when I got there they attacked me... I was in charge until 2 pm. Around 1 pm, Judy came woddling up without me even noticing. I was looking down trying to figure out this word puzzle I made myself and she called my name. I could not believe it. I wanted to get up and give her a hug, but I felt obligated for it may have made her feel uncomfortable. She had a bag in her hand and she said, "I've been looking for you, Mary for the past two weeks. I came up here every so often and asked when you worked next and they gave me this employment verification number." I smiled so pleased to see that lovely lady. "Mary, I got a new job and it is in the Woodlands." She told me about it and I was so content knowing that she had a better paying job that she truly deserved. "I brought these khaki pants for you, Mary because I remember you telling me that you needed some more and since I am not a part of Target anymore and you can use them I brought them for you." I told her about my entrance essay and she told me that I shouldn't have. I was just thinking about her too. I wonder if there is fate... or God... or anything impressive like that. I should believe so, maybe I will. I am a fate and God believer, my friends, uh huh, yup. :D AMAZING!

If not currently obvious, I am in a screwed up mood right now. I wish Mark were home for I could brag about my new panties and bras and what the hell do you know? He just called because he was on his break.

Tomorrow is the Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans game at the Reliant Stadium and my dad invited Larry so he will be sitting next to me. I bet he will get drunk and talk shit to folks. This is what makes the game 10x better :D VIOLENCE AND STUPIDITY = humor!

So long.

I've had this idea stuck in my head about a story that I want to write, but the idea is unclear... so it is impossible to write this story. I am getting real ticked off, but gee whiz, what doesn't tick me off?

Folks from England visited last night and we talked all night (few hours after work) until Mark got home from IHOP and then him and I talked until about 4:30 am, we wanted to reenact the night we got together. We kind of fell asleep towards the end, but the thought was sweet. It has been a lovely six months today... amazing, a half of a year.

Serita has a killer British accent and I'd kill to have any kind of accent besides the hick one I already have. British accents are adorable! I talked about useless bullshit on the couch just to hear her respond and her giddy laugh. Wow, her and I have been friends since the first grade.

I bought five shirts today which all cost a hefty thirty-one cents each. Yup, sure did and I feel hella good 'bout it. I need to shave tonight and unfortunately the Houston Texans lost to the New Orleans Saints 10-31 :( My dad went to the game in New Orleans, I bet he is disappointed.

Life is brilliant and so are you, all except I go back to hell tomorrow.

When you want a good snack, get string cheese and a bottle of water.

I finished all of my history work, it took 2 hours or so. I don't think I did the best I could do, but at least I did it. I doubt many others stayed up until 3 am working on it... or even during Spring Break.

Tomorrow I am going to write my Holden and McMurphy paper and then I will be set! I will be done. Then I can spend the rest of tomorrow and the day after and the day after that chilling, or something.

Mark is coming over on Wednesday. I am really anxious. We are going to watch a couple of movies and then he is going to play his bass :). I hope it goes well. I think it will. I want a new journal. I will have to look into that.
