Back to School
So, school has started again, and here is my only thought I'm going to put here, only 174 more days, 164 if I take all my approved paid leave. 'nuff said.
I've had so much fun this summer hanging out with my Barnes and Noble crowd. They make me feel young. I haven't even drank this much alcohol since probably in college. Plus, I have now played a couple of nerdy board games, Arkham Horror and Carcassone (spelling?) and had a blast. Guess I am a nerd. It's been fun having someone to have a crush on, even if he never figured it out, or even if he did figure it out, would never be interested in me.
I'm trying hard to stay with the group as much as possible. The guy I like, that I've talked about before, well his band is playing in Arkansas in September, I was excited to maybe be able to go with the 3 people roadtripping to see him, (even though I kind of invited myself, but with approval from one of them), and now my mom says she's planning my step-dad's 60th birthday party for that weekend, which sucks. I was thinking, hotel, away from normal stuff, maybe I could convince him to hook up for a one night thing? Guess not. One of the 3 people going, is the woman who is a couple years older than me, but married with kids. She didn't invite me, and while we've been pretty good friends this summer, I sometimes wonder if she has a bit of a thing for my guy as well, and wonder how she really feels now that she knows I like him. But, she hasn't said anything to him, which if she wasn't a friend and wanted to maybe ruin my chances with him (like I actually have a chance with someone 9 years younger than me when I'm so overweight), she would tell him, because I'm sure he's not going to be interested.
Enough about my teeny bopper crush. My birthday comes up in October, yeah, I know that is 2 months away, but back to school makes me start thinking about that. Plus, October is 3 months until my lease is up, and Honda said if I came back closer to that time, they might be able to work with me on getting me out of the lease and into the car I want, which right now, I really want a Honda Civic Hybrid with a navigation system. Really, really bad. So bad I'd pay almost $100 more a month than I'm paying now if I could get it for that, but I don't think I'll be able to get the payment even that low.
I'm also starting back to work on my education specialist this week. One of the syllabi that I printed off is really scary looking!! I'm thinking with my 3 jobs now that I don't know if I can handle it. At least my library job will give me plenty of time to work on that stuff, as I was already posting on blackboard tonight.
Okay enough for now! Back to work?
