Life and all it's pleasantries
I have a meeting in the morning, in Aurora. :( *Le Sigh* I guess it's part of the job, but the job has been antagonizingly boring and dragging lately. I suppose boring is the wrong word. Lots of changes are being made, and while I'm not against change, I'm just not sure the fit is as comfortable as it once was. I'm giving everything a fair shot, like I said I would, though, before I make any rash choices. Besides, I can't really afford to be rash. Anyone have any little odds and ends jobs they want to give to me? I work for pretty cheap, when I can find the time. :)
I watched "A Day Without A Mexican" tonight with Ben. It was different than I thought it would be. It was very tounge in cheek (for instance, there was a band called Los Perro Mojados) and somewhat quirky. It was funny without trying to be (in some instances). I'm glad it wasn't as serious as I thought it might be. I've watched some pretty heavy stuff about Mexican Immigrants this year ("Farmingville," "Mojados Through The Night") so it was good to see things from a more human and somewhat silly point of view.
Ben and I also went to Jason's Thai, I think it was called, right across the street from his apartment. I have played with the idea of moving to that area on and off for a while now (closer to school but much much further from work, of course). It WOULD be nice to be across the street from so much hub bub, such as STARBUCKS. :) Anyway, Jason's Thai is in the old "Isle of Singapore" spot, which takes me back. :) The food was pretty good. I was up for trying something new but was also slightly indecisive so I opted for the panang curry. It was great and I think I have four pounds of leftovers.
Other than that, it's Arno's night in, and I'm missing him something fierce. I've taken some steps this week that have put me on a better and healthier path to "recovery" and he's been awesome. I can't keep pushing against him when he turns into a brick wall. I HAVE to let him have his own life, his own friends. I have to trust Joe and Christi, because if he trusts them, then I should. I'm only going to bring myself and our relationship agony if I continue to have ill feelings toward them.
We went to get mini banana splits last night at Sonics before I took him to Castle Rock. Before that my sister took me to Rock Bottom Brewery in Westminster. It was alright...I enjoyed the beer sampler I tried. My sister told me that she's been going out (to VINYL! OMG) a lot lately, and I might go to Vinyl with her on Halloween. I thought of a costume that's easy and inexpensive. Scrubs. I've done it before, I'll do it again. Maybe I'll be Elliot from Scrubs. :)
Well that's that for now. I'm going to finish cleaning my apartment, which I've taken a break from doing to tool around the internet and play Monopoly online at www.playatmcd.com. I'm going to probably read "Twilight" some before I fall asleep. Oh GOODY I have that meeting in the morning. Growl. Not in the mood. Oh well, at least when I get back to the office I'll only have five hours of work. Too bad I have five hours of work already waiting for me! (Our new assistant manager, Rick, started yesterday, but that'll be discussed later.) Sweet dreams LJers.
