This was going to be a major kvetch fest about how I was apparently scheduled to come in this weekend, and thus, 3 weekends in a row, but I just don't have the energy to be upset by it.
Today was kinda good. Decided that I am definitely going to get my license by my birthday. Setting a deadline means there's more pressure to actually do it, yes?
Also, probably selling the Lincoln. It's driving me insane and I don't even like it that much. I will be using whatever money I get from that on a down payment for a car half my age or less.
That's all really. Doctor's appointment on Monday, 8:30 am. They are going to send a camera down my throat D:D:D:D:D: They better numb me, if the doctor doesn't want puked on, is all I have to say. But it will be nice, not having a sore throat anymore.

I'm feeling pretty grumpy today. I called the health center about my throat and they got me in at 11:40. I saw Dr. Lappert, which was awkward because, um, Zach's dad kinda fired her and the only place that would take her was the health center. I was kinda hoping she didn't remember me and thus screw me up some how.
Turns out, she didn't have a chance. She's sending me to an ENT, so they can put a camera through my nose, yessssss.
Also, I think Kate's been fucking with me at work. The other day, I almost left with a huge bottle of hand sanitizer and when I picked up my bag to leave this morning, I found a dozen odd plastic knives from the break room.
This might mean war.

I find myself dreaming about work like, every night.
I worked 10 hours. Annoyingly, they'll only pay me for 9.5. I love being clocked out for a half hour lunch THAT I DIDN'T TAKE. And yes, that 5.xx means a lot to me, apparently.
Sore throat, activate!
I can't wait to just sleep in tomorrow. This morning Zach and I both work up around 6 and I probably would've just rolled over and went back to sleep, but SOMEBODY wanted to cuddle. Bastard. LOL, backwards world.
I'm living on junk food and feel pretty crappy about that. On the one hand, I'm 20 and have a good metabolism. On the other hand, woman cannot subsist on donuts alone.
It's weird thinking of myself as a woman and not a girl.

Not much to say, other than I got a great night's sleep 2 nights ago.
ZLB might be slowly driving me insane. It's okay though, they are paying me pretty well.
I'm pretty sleepy. I made cashew chicken tonight and it was fantastic.

I've got to get over this whole "I can't sleep thing." It's kind of sad that I'm 20 and I'm all, "Oh no! It's 11:30, I'm up way too late!" I think I'm secretly an old lady.
I really am tired. I'm just too wound up from my day. Work got to the point that I just hung up the phone and almost yelled, "I can't do it all!" And then I promptly went to help the manager sort out a bleed label. Sigh.
I should go back to bed.

1. I finished the Alchemyst. Good book. I'm upset that it wasn't the end of the series because I have to wait until JUNE to get the next book, which is #3 out of 6. Grrr. 2. Some people post stupid things in their blogs. 3. Work at 2. Trying to decide if I'm excited or not. I think the move to Tuesdays as my day off will be good so I won't have too many days off in a row. 3 days off sometimes makes me not want to go back to work. 4. I am having a horrendous hair day. I knew I should have blow dried it last night. I woke up with hair straight out of the '80s. It was AWESOME.

Livejournal, I have been sleeping in until like, 10 or later! It feels fantastic. I haven't gotten this much sleep in ages.
I had a really kick ass dream. There was a giant snake, and magic and I had to save the world, etc and I know it was totally influenced by the book I was reading, but my subconscious is pretty sweet sometimes.
I'm wearing a dress today. I feel pretty. It is brown with pink polka dots and a pink bow. And the shell necklace that Zach bought me in Cancun.
Going to the Korbys' tonight for steak, om nom nom. Jeri was going to do chicken & shrimp, but Zach was all, "we eat chicken all the time and Amanda doesn't like shrimp." So she was like, "Steak!" and I was like :D
I think I'm going to go read now.

It just dawned on me that role playing is totally just playing make belief for grown ups.
Someone keeps signing onto my Yahoo IM and logging me out. Bastards.
I got bangs yesterday. I don't know if I mentioned that or not. Zach says I got a bang because well, they don't look much like bangs. I've tried to take a picture of them, but haven't really got a good one yet as they just push back into the rest of my hair. It's awkward. But it was a good decision because for once I didn't rely on someone else's input. I said, "I think I'm going to get bangs today," and Zach made a funny face like that's a bad idea and I did it anyway.
I just took a break to rumble with Zach. I did pretty good until he clocked me in the jaw and I thought I chipped a tooth.
This is not a normal relationship.
We were fighting to see if I get cuddles tonight. I lost (BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE A MOUTH GUARD AND EVEN RANDY COUTURE WOULDN'T WANT TAKE A HIT TO THE JAW WITHOUT A MOUTH GUARD, OKAY?!).
And also, laundry & steak tomorrow.
wtf, Obama was in Dublin yesterday and I didn't even know about it. Crazy. That explains traffic.

Jeremy's last day is tomorrow.
I am going to cry, I know it. I almost did about a million times today. I'm happy for him- he's getting a big ol' promotion and working his way to yet another one. But damn, I'm sad he's gone. I might stay late just to BS with him one last time.
Sad.

1. Posting from my new laptop, yey. 2. I'm invited to a party on Saturday. I want to go because it's a lot of coworkers and I love them, but it's a hookah & drinks party. Seeing as I don't smoke or drink, I don't think there will be too much for me to do. Hmmm. 3. The depo? You know, that I thought was so awesome? It's less awesome. Random cramps, activate! 4. Jeremy's last day is tomorrow and I'm very sad. 5. Zach just left to pick up his muffler and he put on cologne and hugged me and it was very good smelling. 6. I slept till 10 freaking 30 today, holy crap, how did that happen? I had wanted to do my background check today, but I guess it'll wait. Wednesday will probably be better anyway.

I got my new laptop today. It was an ordeal.
I've been shopping online and was going to get an Acer since Zach loves his so much. So I found one online that I loved and I wanted to wait till my next paycheck to buy it. So I did, and I went to the bookmarked page and -BAM!- it was gone. Sold out.
So I shopped around a bit more and found one I liked, but it was only available for in store pickup. So we went to the store today and looked around and only saw 3 Acers. I showed the guy the model # and he checked and he said we'd have to order it. So we went to the front desk and they said the warehouse was out of that model, as well as the local stores.
So we went back and picked out Henry, a Toshiba. I like him a lot. I'd be posting from him but I'm working on getting AVG & ad aware before I do any putzing around.
Then we stopped at Raising Cane's to get some lunch but the fryer was down, so they gave us two coupons for free box lunches :) And then we got Subway.

 I know, I know. You can worship me later. Seriously, I'm really proud of myself. I worked a LOT of hours this quarter (30+ every week) and that was a LOT of credit hours even for someone who's not working. And I managed to bring my (kinda crappy) cumulative GPA up. Which makes me happy.
Kinda bummed about the B+ in 182, but it was a 10 week class in 5 weeks, so kvetching is kinda pointless.
Hooray. Now I think I deserve the laptop I've been eying. If only I could afford it...

Yay got my tags today. I even have them memorized (about a million years quicker than Zach memorized his- yay mnemonics!). I can't exactly put them on because the screws to the old tags are more or less rusted in place.
I drove all by myself today on N High for like a block and I almost had a panic attack. And then I parked really shittily at Giant Eagle, convinced I was going to be arrested for diving without a license.
My life is very exciting.
I slept for 9 hours for the 2nd night in a row. I ♥ summer vacation.

Zach has decided I say "ouch" too much. And there is a bit of truth in that. I say "ouch" when things don't hurt.
Thus, I will be replacing the word "ouch" with "inconvenient." Stubbing my toe might not really hurt, but it is rather inconvenient. Falling onto the bed? Inconvenient. No need to bring in implications of pain.

Between staying up late reading/waiting for Zach to come home and these stupid cold and sinus pills, I could probably fall asleep standing.
One of my coworkers is making life a bit difficult. Thankfully, I don't work with him too often.
The new lab coats at work leave little fuzzies and strings on my scrubs, which is pretty lame.
Pork fried rice for dinner and also new shoes! Paid for by work! Yay work!

I am sad and full of woe and woe is me and life is disappointing, et cetera, et cetera and so on and so forth.
AKA: My direct deposit came in and the laptop I wanted to buy was OUT OF STOCK. How dare someone buy my computer. Bitches.
So now I want to spend stupid amounts of money elsewhere which is an overall Bad Plan Indeed.
Also, I got $100 giftcard from work yey. It is going to new shoes. I wanted Zach to take me to the mall (read: "Honeeeeey, didn't you want to buy shooooooes?" "Do you mean will I take you to the mall?" "Mebbe.")but we ended up watching Bourne Identity or one of those movies or something and also making a surprise dinner thing. Soon we will be lighting the candles, so it really wasn't a Friday lost or anything.
I'm just bummed I didn't get my retail therapy.
But I am slightly gladdened by an abundance of macadamia nut cookies in the pantry that Zach doesn't even like so they are all mine this is a really long run on sentence.

Found a laptop that I like. Just waiting for my direct deposit tomorrow to buy it.
English exam in 3 1/2 hours, ish. Should probably start to study for that. After that, I'm stopping off at work to do some attendance- there was so much of it that I couldn't get it done before Anna left. So I'm going in for a little bit today- in my street clothes so they can't rope me into production (hopefully)- to finish that up.
Is it tomorrow yet?
For some reason the new scheduling program has me scheduled for 9 am to close on Fridays. Ha ha ha. That's not going to fly.
Zach and I went to breakfast this morning. I heart Buckeye donuts. That is all.

Comm & History down. I was not expecting any non-multiple choice on the comm test, but it wasn't too bad.
Work at 4. I was really available for 2, but I don't really feel like coming in earlier than I'm scheduled.
I took the most glorious nap after my exam today. Zach called me when I was asleep and I was all nice and warm and disoriented.
Apparently, tomorrow I am going to model for Zach's dad's doctor's office/beauty salon. I am getting a free haircut out of it.
Somehow hamburger juice leaked all over the fridge and Zach almost drank a water bottle with meatjuice on it :(
I'm feeling astonishingly unmotivated to do anything. I did put away all the hanging-up clothes though, and thought real hard about putting away my scrubs.

So I'm posting mostly because I don't want to study. Duh.
This weekend was wonderful. We got to the Red Roof Inn at around 10 and the clerk said they only had one room for one night and it was a king suite, so I was like, "whatever, it's one night, we'll take it." So that's where we stayed. And I got the best night's sleep, like, ever. The pillows were perfect.
The next day we went to two reunions and Zach wasn't super bored or anything. And then that night, my grandma's neighbor of 20+ years died. It was really sad. He was in his 60s and took care of his autistic brother and now his brother is going to have to live in a home and Grant's grandson was just pacing the sidewalk because there was just nothing he could do to help the EMTs. Mom hasn't told Justin yet because he liked to go over and talk to Grant and they weren't best friends or anything, but Justin takes these things pretty hard. It was kind of nice though, that Junior (the other neighbor) came over and actually came in the house instead of chatting on the front porch and the neighborhood kind of came together again.
Then we slept in Jenna's room and omg, was it ever hot. At 2 AM it was like, 80+ degrees up there, but when we woke up at 8, it was probably 60 or so. Annoying.
Then we went to the third reunion, but I was kind of sick to my stomach. We left around 2 and took a longish way home because of all the detours on the normal route. Zach raced some kid in a Talon and lost, but the kid's car started pouring out blue smoke so I think overall, Zach was the winner in that situation.
Then we came home and had dinner and I'm not sick anymore which is good. I decided against Comm class this morning because I was still unsure about my stomach. And then I remembered I had a paper due. So I emailed the teacher this morning, saying I could email or dro pit off in his mailbox, but he hasn't replied. I guess if worse comes to worst, I'll just take it to the exam.
