I suppose it's time for an update.

I'm a total loser and never post. I'm sorry for that. Today at work I had a strange experience...well kinda strange but not that much. Let me preface it with this; have you ever had that wierd feeling when you know that you know a person but they don't know you? It's like seeing a celebrity and knowing who they are but not really knowing them. I think the internet has created a lot of those situations. What do you do when around those people? Do you say hello like you know them? Or would that make you totally creepy? Do you ignore them? Does that make you bitchy, because what if they do know you and you just think they don't?
Before this rant goes off in any other directions and starts to make absolutely no sense I will explain the situation. Josh, it involves you. Kind of. As you may (or may not) know I work at Gloria Jean's in the mall. Jessica came into the Glo Jo's and got a drink today. I helped her and the entire time was thinking, "That's Josh's Jessica....do I say something? I don't think she knows me...does she know me?" That kind of mindset is very strange to me. It's almost like seeing someone from high school and not wanting to talk to them but you feel like you should acknowledge that you know who they are. (Not that I don't want to say hello to Jessica...but I digress...)
Anyway, it's just wierd. I really have nothing else to say about it, it's just strange.
And also while I'm on the topic; Josh: you've come into the store before and asked me a question about some random thing that we had and I didn't know what to say. "Hey! I'm the girl from the internet! The one that's dating Matt!" sounds like I'm a douche. So I chose to pretend like you were any other customer. I'm sorry, I won't do it again.

Now that that is out of the way and off of my mind let's get down to better business. I go back to school on Sunday morning. (If you want time with me before then you better claim some time quickly.) I'm both nervous and excited. As some of you may know I am living in the same room as last year. So I have been going over and over the layout that I want my room to have. I think I'm gonna switch up a few things for this semester. By the way, I only have one semester of school left which is why living in the dorms again made a lot of sense: no subleasing of apartments and all that crap. I'm not really nervous about going back to school or anything like that, I'm more nervous because I know that this is my last semester and I have absolutely no fucking clue what I am going to be doing when that semester is over. I have the potential plan of coming back to the Rock for a bit to save up some money until Matt gets done with Loyola and we can live together. Man that's gonna be nice. I want to be able to wake up to my man every morning and have sex whenever we want. That's going to be so nice. Independence is calling to me.

I'm a little all over the place tonight but that's fine by me. Hmmmm....let's see. I had my birthday a little over a week ago. It was a really good weekend I must say. That Friday I hung out with Matt, Kent, Steph, Mike, and Franci. Don't go see Pulse is the moral of that story. Oh, the other moral is don't throw your boyfriend over your shoulder and smack his head into the ground: it cuts the night short and that is never any fun. Then on Saturday I went and saw The Wandering Sons with the Elanors and H.M.S. It was a very good show and I'm glad that most of the Glo Jo's kids came with. We had a blast and pretty much everyone liked all of the bands. Afterwards we headed over to the Paragon for some incredibly delicious wine. Thanks Amy!!! We laughed and made fun of the two guys that were "singing and just had an overall fantastic time. When it rolled around to my actual birthday (August 13th) we all cheered and had a toast. On my birthday night the family plus Matt and Kristen (Tim's lady) went to Red Lobster. I had been craving some good fish like mad and so it hit the spot just right. I think Grandma is getting a little crazier every year, but I can't tell. She's always been a little strange, but I think discussing the oddities of little people with Matt was a new low point in her sanity. But she's Japanese. And not only can old people get away with anything; Japanese old people can really get away with anything.

I'm sad that summer is almost over because I don't want to say the obligatory "I'll see you later" to my friends and family again. I don't want to send Matt back to school to a five-hour-away place from me. It's no fun. I'll make it work as usual but it's gonna suck. I have to not think about that though and concentrate more on enjoying my classes and the friends that I have up in Madison. I am also planning on going to a lot of shows this semester. The Wandering Sons are a definite must on September 13th. Also Stephanie is already planning on coming up to visit me and we're going to see the amazing Regina Spektor. She's playing at the Majestic Theater. If anyone else wants to come they should buy a ticket. She's amazing! And you'll have the lovely Stephanie and I to hang out with. (I think Katie is coming too and that'll be super amazing!) Oh and The Headlights are playing at the 770 Club with Decibully on the 22nd of September, so I'm thinking about going to that show as well. Maybe I can con Mel into going with me.....

Oh! One more last exciting thing (for me at least) before I stop writing this post. Stephanie, Jessica, and Jon all went in and got me a birthday present together...they got me a gift certificate to Delicious Ink!!!!!! YAY more tattoos for me!!!! I am going in tomorrow to talk to Tim about getting some of my back piece touched up (he wants to go over some of the black lines to "make the colors pop" a little more). And while there I am going to see how much he'll charge me for my mermaid that I want to get. We'll see...I'm hoping to get the black lines done on Friday this week if he has time open, and then I'll probably have to come home some weekend to get the mermaid piece. Yay!

And on that note I bid you adeu. I'm sure that the next time I post probably won't be until after I've moved back in at school. So in case I don't see you, kiss yourself for me.
