It's godawful early but it doesn't feel like it...
I worked at the ampitheater all weekend, saw Kelly Clarkson from afar, and Journey and Def Leppard up close, watched from the stage. Def Leppard rocks, people!
Met a girl. Met a hot, smart girl. Met an unavailable, hot, smart girl. Stayed at girl's house last night. Watched girl get dressed in her Navy uniform (hot!) this morning. Can't have girl (she doesn't want to be had). Trying to get over hotness/smarts so we can just be friends. Grrrrr. She's hoping to go to sea soon anyways.
I'm hanging at a friend's house lately, her stepdad died so she's in TN handling things. I'm watching her house/dog.
Oh, did I ever mention I don't really care for dogs? This one has fleas and makes the whole house smell like wet dog. Blech! But I'll do it cause I love my friend. She asked me to stay at her place but I really can't - the fleas will eat me! So I'm spending some time with doggie and catching up on email while I'm here.
Becoming an EMT has interested me for years. In high school a few friends and I took an advanced first-aid (pre-EMT) course through the rescue squad. We all passed with flying colors, learned how to do all kinds of medical things as well as a bit of extrication. For about a year or so I worked in NY as a volunteer ambulance driver. I truly miss it and want to get back out there! Also get this my grandfather helped to found the rescue squad in my tiny little town years ago!
I know I can do the class and pass it, I'm not sure I can handle puke. Seriously, I puke when someone else does. It's genetic or whatever (lol) my mother is a nurse and has been one for over 30 years and does NOT do puke! But anyways.....
Virginia Beach will pay for your certification if you commit to 2 years of service. I'm gonna do it!
Hopefully work will give me the times off to take the class and volunteer.
I'm so sick of looking for my princess charming, thinking she's out there somewhere, longing for her.
I am pretty happy with my life but I feel like I have a hole, my other half. I also feel like I really need to lose weight, I won't find anyone until I'm the third of who I am now. I'm scared of surgery but I want to be well. I want the aches and pains of being 350 lbs to go away. I want to play softball with my friends. I want to live!
