and about 3 tablespoons in the icing... along with a cup and a half of con. sugar. so it's sweet! the suggestion of the gummi colas was perfect. Thank you domestic goddess.(it's the book I got this out of.

One mess up after another.
I was driving and a neighbor backed out of her drive way without looking behind her. Four houses down the street. So my car is back in the shop, for who knows how long. I have a rental. Its a pretty red color, but it's a giant Camry. It's pretty similar to the one I drove last January when I was rear-ended. The body shop must love me. Both of which were not my fault. However Tom keeps telling me I'm a terrible driver.
These pictures are pretty close to the same thing, I just thought I'd post anyway.
Just by looking at it, the shop says I have over four thousand dollars in damages. There also might be suspension damage again. I guess the frame of the car is all one piece and can not be adjusted. So when the tire was hit, it's facing inward and there's no way to fix it, just replace to whole frame. Good Times!

It's been a long time since I posted. I've been busy. I guess that's a lie.. or not really. I'll just re-word it. My mind has been busy, and my stress level is through the roof.
I took a few days off from work, and I had to go in because there were a lot of screw ups, and I got a few calls saying that everything was piling up for me to deal with. Needless to say I wasn't happy.
I want to eat some taco bell and get some ice cream.

I see Live Journal is turning 10. I've had it for over 7 years. That's pretty insane. Thank you NICK for signing me up when it was invite only. If not, I wouldn't have documented all those important and amazing memories. Some of that is sarcasm, however some of them were pretty amazing. :p

Did I mention I got a new tattoo?
You do not know how happy I am.

I wish I had something to post about, my life is almost non exsistant sometimes. Its hard to differentiate what I think about and what's reality. I spend most days working and not being me. I'm really drained from it, emotionally and physically. I'm now welcoming change... instead of not

I don't know what it is about nice weather, seems to make me think about summer, and how amazing it used to be. Now its the same everyday life with the occasional beach/pool visit, or bbq. I can't seem to grasp what it used to be, and that feeling it used to have. To just walk to 7/11 and grab the biggest slurpee they had. I need a giant water gun and some people to run around with, lets make this happen.
Any takers?

I can't wait for kimmie to be home. I want someone to go to shows with, and most importantly, I want to go on a road trip. It seems like I work hard and save my money, and hardley ever get to use it on traveling. I haven't saved enough to just pick up and leave, but I have a nice chunk of change in the bank waiting for a trip somewhere. I've been thinking about going to las vegas again. My siser asked for me to go visit her in the summer, I'm actually trying to figure out the cost and see if it would be better to go in the winter. I think the warmer it is here, the less it costs.
Although I plan on taking a few days in june or july to just hang out by the beach. I miss having a pool where all your family hangs out and plays basket ball, makes wave pools, whirl pools, and just float around.
I guess what I'm saying here is I need the summer to get here fast. Its a lot easier to smile when its sunny outside, and I'm outside long enough to enjoy it.

I can see your disapproval
or maybe you just can’t relate
But this is what I live each day for
Won't go back! Had enough!
I can see your disappointment
when I see the look on your face
But I’ve just got to make my choices
No one else! Just for me!
Maybe you can't see!
I just can't fail forever
and some day I will set it straight
Taking chances to make things happen
for myself no one else but me!
We just can't fail forever!
and some day we will set it straight!
Taking chances to make things happen!
for ourselves; no one else but us!
This life, it's only for me
Hold back? I will never. I gotta break free
My bets have all been placed
so don't count me out!

Upstate Ny.
I honesly love it here, if it wasn't for the extra snow, I'd be living here. The house and cost of living is so much lower. There's a house down the street on the market for $179,000 and one around the corner sold for $189,000 last week. Mind you these are 2.5 baths, 3 bedroom type houses. With a good amount of front and back yard space.
A lot of these lots used to be farms. A lot of the surrounding towns are still a bunch of farms.
I can't afford a house anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter.
I'll be home tomorrow evening. Back to my everyday life. Back to my tom berube, and back to my kitty. The only two reasons I go back.

| this past weekend.. |

It all started on friday afternoon. I had been at work since 7:30 and was about to take my lunch break when my boss comes in and starts cleaning up the things she had left behind, which she never does. Her coat, lunchbox, sweatshirt, and coffee cup. My DM comes in a few minutes into my break and says "Sandra no longer works for us, come into the office when you're done and we'll talk". Turns out the terminated her for some bullshit reason, we're all really broken up about it. Some of us cried. She had been the first steady manager in the three years we've been here. We all don't understand why she had to be terminated... but she was, and nothing can change it. She was supposed to open the store Saturday and Sunday, and it was my weekend off. I ended up working both days. Not that I mind, I've just been so exausted. I fall asleep by 11 each night and wake up around 5:30/6. In turn I get Saturday off this weekend so I can go to the last Penrose show on the 27th. Its sold out! I'm still really worried about the new bossman. Seems like he's throwing more onto my plate than before. He wants me to schedule, payroll, plus what I was already doing. I think he's treating me as an assistant manager, when I'm really not. I'm the "Operations Manager". Different pay bracket, different job bracket. So I'm going to tell him at some point that its not in my job discription... I don't want to be an assistant manager, they own you at that point. They send you all over the place.. And I don't want that.

This weekend was long. Not that it matters, but I sat at home and did nothing. On some levels, amazing, but by Sunday night I was ready to blow out my brain. Luckily I had work on Monday, which I wasn't happy about, but at least it got me out of the house... Tom was home by the time I got in.. I watched some Hiro, Ando, Matt, and the gang on my tv. No spoilers here, go watch it already!
Not exactly sure what's been going on in my world. I'm a lot of mixed emotions. Coming to the close of week two without my car. I have no idea what the status is...
I'm very moody and arkward.
