wonderful web comic. it has a cute story. gotta start with the first one and work your way up though. and it's amazing to see his artwork improve.

i'm finally caught up and kind of sad about it. i liked having comics to read through when i was bored. now i have to wait everyday for a new one.

anyway.

i'm still in kind of a funk.

i'm so so tired.

i was talking to nick and i realized that my finals are three weeks away. on top of the 2 final exams, i have 5 papers to write, a final project and one more bio exam.

i'm not going to be very fun after thanksgiving.

oh well.

oh, and fletcher put this on facebook: "Gotta find a part time job until i find my dream job"

well, of course. didn't i say that in the first place? dumbass. thinking about him makes my head hurt. i've been having a lot of dreams about him lately. all of them ending in me being mad and storming off. i'm tired. we're done. so why can't i be done?

ughhh.

I've had an interesting weekend. A lot of unusual ups and downs.

But I'm here to write about the good stuff :)

Spent the night at Nick's on Saturday. We went to bed early because I was exhausted. In the morning, he woke up before me because he wanted to make breakfast but was out of milk. So, he walked to the store for milk, made breakfast and woke me up when everything was ready. I found cinnamon rolls, roses and a present :D It was so sweet. We've officially made it to two months. He got me this really pretty necklace. Gosh, I wonder what six months will bring :)

After we ate our cinnamon rolls, we slept for a while longer. Then we went to the humane society with my mother because she's been wanting a dog. Nick ended up getting a kitten, and mom put in her name to adopt a little poodle mix that we're picking up later tonight :) So I'll have a dog at home and a kitten at Nick's! Nick bought her, but he keeps insisting that she's our cat. I love it. We named her stella and she's the cutest fucking thing. I'll show you pictures soon.

Really, sunday was mostly wonderful.

Nick's facebook status?

"Missing my sweetie. She's the grilled cheese to my tomato soup. :D"

I know it's totally cheesy, but it's so cute.

If only everything in my life could be as good as he is.

So, Doug and Patti Mayonnaise didn't work out so well. Neither of us could find the right stuff for those costumes. New idea! Legends of the hidden temple! There's a site that will guarantee overnight shipping if we order the shirts tonight :D

I'm super excited! And I don't have to wear a skirt!

Win.

I'm pretty sure I almost quit my job today.

I went to get a movie for the kids to watch, and my boss was ranting about something to her boss. The minute I heard them talking, I turned around and walked away. But if Dan wasn't there, I'm pretty sure she would have yelled at me. And if she had yelled at me, I'm pretty sure I would have quit on the spot.

I'm just not in any mood to be yelled at. And I get so tired of her passive aggressive shit.

gaaaaah.

All of this work stuff has put me in this awful mood and now I just want to crawl into bed and pretend today just didn't happen.

This was on Nick's fridge when I went over there this morning :D




He said he ran out of E's and couldn't put my whole name up there XD But it's super cute.

It's raining so much. I've missed it. It feels good when I'm home for the night, in jammies and generally being lazy.

This is what I do on Friday nights :)

School is... going. I'm done with it already. Overall, really, it's not so bad. I did okay on my first bio midterm. English is super easy. And I'm relearning everything in linguistics. It's so interesting. How did I fail it freshman year?

Work has been okay. Busy busy busy. And my boss might have the swine flu. Her husband is in the hospital with it, and she's running a fever now. Gosh, I hope that doesn't get to me.

Things with Nick are fabulous. I've seen him every day this week. I spend the night at his apartment all the time. He bought me a hairdryer and made me a key to his apartment :) We hang out all the time and watch How I met your mother and all sorts of shenanigans. He's perfect and I'm so happy that things are going as well as they are.

And that's really all I've got.

I hate that I'm the kind of mood where Jim and Pam's wedding made me cry :-/

So, in language science, we're learning the phonetic alphabet. It's a way to write things down by sound. The homework tonight was to transcribe sentences from the phonetic alphabet to english. This is one of the sentences:

"The sapphire was originally owned by a sultan who died under mysterious circumstances when a hand reached out of a bowl of soup he was eating and strangled him."

I thought that was a funny thing to come out of a college textbook! :p

I'm having the biggest cake craving. Chocolate cake would pretty much rock my world right now.

I'm exhausted. I just don't have any energy this week. I was tired all afternoon yesterday, and all fucking day today. I don't understand it. My schedule isn't that bad, and I almost always get 6+ hours of sleep. I'm staying in and getting some homework done tonight.. Then going to bed early and hoping that I feel normal tomorrow.

School has been okay. I've seen a lot of people and I've been keeping up. I'm kind of tired of it already, though. I need some motivation.

Nick is great. He overuses the word 'wonderful' and it makes me smile every time. I love his brother and sister-in-law. I see him all the time. I wish everything else in my life could be as good as he is.

Homework time :(

Company of thieves is fantastic. My new musical obsession.

I hurt my back somehow today. It's this spot on my lower back and it hurts so much. It made work miserable. Especially volleyball. Travis was sick, so it was just me. I was trying to be energetic and keep everyone active and happy. It just took so much out of me.

School started this week. It's okay. Just school. Nothing too overwhelming, which I appreciate. But I feel like I'm going to have a hard time finding the motivation I need.

Tomorrow marks 6 months since Mikey died. That's putting a damper on everything, I think. It's all my mother talks about and it's putting me in a funk. I guess that's just how it goes.

But- Things with Nick are great. He loves me, and I think I might love him too. I talk to him everyday in one way or another. If I don't see him, we text and talk on the phone. And he feels so stable. I feel like he's going to stick around for a while. As much as I wanted that to be true with Fletcher, I knew he'd be everywhere. But Nick is so low key and okay with staying in one place, and I love that.

Okay. I need to do some reading before I crash.

I fell in love when you were brushing your teeth
Over my kitchen sink

I have no means for distraction
No fuel that feeds the reaction
I just came all this way just to say
I really do believe
This was much more than "meant to be"

I fell under when you were waiting for me
Over lines far from time
What do they mean?

I won't give up
I can't give in
Can't get enough
Where to begin?

I won't give up on you

Let's all get together and start a cure

What a long day.

I'm so tired.

My car was acting up, so I woke up early to take it to the shop. Luckily, it was small and could be fixed in a few hours, so that was nice. It cost quite a bit, though :[

After that, I was an idiot and decided that it would be nice to go to the gym.. so my body is all sorts of sore. Then I went to work, helped my mom move some stuff, and I'm going back to work here in a few minutes.

Just... An exhausting day.

And tomorrow is moving day. Another long day. I don't think it will be too bad. I'm excited to be living in a new house. The packing and moving and unpacking part sucks, though. And if we get enough done through the day, hopefully I can see Nick for a little while tomorrow night. I've been spending so much time with him lately that it sucks when I can't see him. We did talk on the phone for a while last night, though :] I adore him. I'm happy things are going so well.

Annnddd.. back to work I go.

What a week.

I've spent a lot of time with Nick the past three days. It's great. We haven't really talked about it, but I think it's safe to say that he's my boyfriend :] I'm worried that I might be jumping into this too fast.. Everything with Fletcher is still so recent.. but it's too good not to. So far, we're really good together. I like being around him.

And tomorrow, mom and I are driving to Bellingham. We get a night at a hotel/spa. Massages, manicures, pedicures. I'm looking forward to it. And I haven't been able to spend much time with her lately, so it'll be good to hang out for a while.

:]

Wee! Huskies won today! I'm so excited! We had a 15 game losing streak. It was about time we won.

Now I'm kind of bummed that I didn't go. My mouth is healing just fine, but the pain meds have done a number to my stomach. I've been nauseous all day. It's gross. I really just want to feel normal again.

I have another date with Nick tomorrow :] We're going to get dinner, then watch a movie at his place. It's sweet.. He's been texting me since Tuesday. It's nice that he texts at all. I'm excited to see him again.

And.. We've started packing this weekend. I think we're moving a week from Wednesday. It's all so quick. I'm pretty excited about the new place, though. It's bigger, and I can decorate my room and I get to catch the bus a whole 5 minutes later when school starts. 5 minutes means a lot when it's early in the morning and you're moving slow and not wanting to go to class :P

I had a great date last night with a guy named Nick. We saw district 9, then got dinner, then sat in the restaurant for extra hour or so talking and listening to the Tuesday trivia they had there. When midnight came around, he said he should get home because he had to get up early, then we stayed for another half an hour :] He was super cute, really nice, kind of shy. Overall, I had a great time.


Nowwww.. Time to get my wisdom teeth pulled. Ouch :[ but, I do get to sleep all day. I sure do love to sleep.

The Con by Tegan and Sara






:]

So, we're in the process of finding a new apartment. Mom wants to move out of here before Christmas because of everything with my brother.

Eric wants this fabulous one that's downtown and on the 17th floor. I wouldn't mind living there, but it's too ritzy for us. Mom and I... We're generally messy people. We take our time in cleaning up. And it's the kind of place that Eric would want to keep spotless. Plus, it's more than they need to pay and you have to pay 185 a month for an extra parking space. That right there is bullshit.

I spent a little time on Craigslist looking at places. I found some places that are bigger, less expensive and more practical. They aren't as convenient as downtown... But I think size and price outweigh convenience.

Anyway. The moral of this story... I'll be really excited if they pick a place that I found.

And I'm actually pretty excited to move. I like moving to new places. I haven't lived in one place for more than 3-4 years. There's something nice about a shiny new apartment. I'll be even more excited to move into my own apartment. But that wont happen for at least another year.

In other news, I got season football tickets! We're big on football at the UW. Go Huskies!
