Now that we sort of have internets...
...I'm going to finally update this thing! So, life in Roanoke has been a little monotonous lately. Most of my days I spend at work, and then usually BJ and I head over to his parents' house to eat dinner since our pantry is probably the saddest pantry ever. That's about it. There have been several attempts to hang out with someone after work, but the plans have always fallen through. Basically, BJ's mom is the only friend I hang out with outside of work; although, there are a couple of them I feel like I'm bonding with and just might have a buddy to possibly go shopping or do something with after work. The funny thing is that all three of them are gay MEN. Which means I am officially a "fag hag," as Margaret Cho puts it. *lol* Brian and Kendall are two of the three GSTLs that I work with, and they've sort of taken me under their wing after I got the GSA position. The third I lovingly call "Jailbait John." John is just the cutest little thing EVER! *lol* All of them are funny, very sweet, and make retail a little bearable.
I finally got registered for classes for this fall. Now I just need the finances to pay for it. I've been trying to apply for a loan through Sallie Mae, but I need a cosigner even for a dinky $4000 loan. I'm so embarrassed about asking one of my family members to cosign for me, that I'm trying to think of ways that I can avoid the loan entirely and manage it myself. Wish me luck.
I'm also fretting a little bit today because this is day three into the week that I'm supposed have my period, and it STILL hasn't arrived yet. Main reason for fretting: totally had an "oops" moment a few weeks ago, and this is the first month of me taking my pills again. So...we'll see what happens with THAT.
Finally, I keep thinking about my wedding and how much planning there's going to be. We're going to have ALOT of people there, probably to the point where BJ and I will have to invite a certain number of people to the actual wedding and then have everyone else meet us at the reception because the chapel can only seat about 150 people. We're also tossing and turning the idea of a swing theme around in our heads, and I'm thinking of altering the idea just a tad. More on that later as it unfolds. Well, that's about it for now. I'm going to go sit and have coffee with my love until I have to get ready to work. Tonight is my first night to close as GSA, so we'll see how that goes! Update later.
