looks like it's time for a real update here.
well i actually forgot how a real update looks like since i just randomly pop in and out of this account. I should write in it more so i can just vent out on work and life issues instead of keeping them to myself.
Thanksgiving was ok, small dinner, nothing fancy. I think the best part of it all was the gordonices that we had instead of the usual pavo dinner. my mom doesnt know how to make good mash potatoes but she gives it her damn best. they were a bit runny so i kinda fix them by putting a whole container of parmesean cheese.
I didnt go shopping in the morning. I don't feel like dealing with dumb people in the wee morning hours. I'll just get everyone amex gift card for christmas, save me the headache of actually thinking of what they want for christmas. I actually watched the oprah special on wednesday and she had a very good idea that i actually think i might execute. She got an old shoe box and decked it out to all hell and inside she put like the best traits of that person in it. It's like a confidence booster when you need it. It doesn't even need to be a shoe box. It can be any kind of box but the idea is to take your time decorating and writing down what you like about that person.
Mmm, it was hectic at work on friday. the day went by fast though. customers actually behaved this year. counting 21k in cash takes a while though :/. I might buy a 360 today too. i have some games that i dont play anymore and that should take care a large chunk of it. i sold my original one to rick because i really didnt get to play it that much but now there's some really good games that i would like to play. im a sucker for good rpg's (role playing games) they're like little action novels.
I've haven't met any characters in my life yet. I go to the gym now too, x-sport fitness. It's open 24hr so it's good with the unsteady work schedule that i have. tito goes there too. i dunno who else from farragut that goes there. i see alot of customers from work there too, at least they leave me alone while i work out. they just nod to me. i dont mind if they talk to me though since most of the time i go by myself.
Loida was in town for a couple of weeks. I spent most of the past 2 weeks with her. it's always fun to be around her. I'm so proud of her and she doesn't even realize it. I'm so humble around her everyone one at work tells me lol. She actually went to the gym with me for those couple of days. She liked it too. She mostly sticked to the elyptical and treadmill while i went around and did my routine. She's in boston at the moment with her family. She'll be back for winter but after that she's moving to DC to work with Obama in the white house. Hopefully i'll save enough money so i can go visit her and get a personal tour of the white house. I'm going to miss her alot though :/. She's trying to get us tickets to the inauguration party in january so we can go, godspeed with that.
There was a party a couple of weeks ago at lucy's house. She's a good person too, always happy and talkative when im around. i met some good people that day but i didnt get anyone's number. we played beer pong(i suck horribly) and flippy cup. Rick stopped by with his cousins as well. At the end of the night Juan told me to calm down amanda because she was venting out on him. I havent talked to her since. I like amanda alot but she gets herself in these kind of situations that make me feel a little bit embarrassed on how the way she behaves around people, specially with alcohol in her hand. She only talks to me because im a good listener. Everyone at work says that i should go out with her but i honestly dont want to. she's good looking but her personality lacks. she's always having problems with her bf/fiance jesus. he's ok too but he always gloats around everyone. ugh. people.
My lovely friend Farah is throwing a christmas party on the 13th and she said that significant others are welcomed. I think im going empty handed in that department. I love farah, she's soo happy and brings a smile to my face. Hopefully my old crew from the hospital goes there so we can catch up on everything. She lives in Plainfield now too, she bought a house with tom, her bf. Tom's cool too. I'm so psyched about the whole party altogether.
We'll that's pretty much it for now, i think i just spent like 20 minutes typing this thing. >.>
oh yeah i have a anime addiction now thanks to my friend jeannie. damn her.
