Well, looks like it's back to my old LJ neglecting ways.
It's not that I don't have the time, I just choose not to say anything.
I've been so tired lately, physically and mentally, I should really pop into the doc
but getting me to go to the doc is hard even if my arm is ready to fall off, let alone
for a general check up. If things don't shape up though I just might have to succumb.
Been keeping busy on the weekends, out on the bike as much as I can, have a ride tomorrow
as a matter of fact, provided the weather is decent. Got caught in the rain down on the way
home from Summerfest which led to soaked jeans and soaked spirits, it's not fun believe me.
Divorce proceedings are heating up. My Dad is being an ass about things and not agreeing to
stuff in order to get it done and over with. I seriously think he thought my Mom would just
roll over and take what he was willing to give. Thousands in lawyer fees later there still
isn't an agreement and the September "d day" is looking like it might get pushed back. His
papers say that my Mom needs to find a 40 hour a week job with benefits so he doesn't have to
pay as much in "maintenance" or for her health insurance for so many months after things are
final. HE'S the one who cheated, HE'S the one who left. Fuck that. The papers she got
yesterday listed a settlement amount about 100 grand LESS that what we originally thought. I
have a feeling this is going to get ugly which is only going to make my work environment that
much more awful. I'm already considering a new job, but I won't find anything like what I have
now as far as pay, vacation and low responsibility goes cause ya know I'm lazy like that.
Grrr. Hate it all!
Had a conversation about weddings yesterday with my BFF. Apparently her man brought it up and
already has an elaborate plan in place, details and all of how he thinks their wedding day
will be. They've only been dating 6 months, not engaged or anything, but they both agree that
it will happen one day. They're in love y'all. It will be her 2nd and his 1st and I get to
once again be maid of honor. I got excited for her because I know how much of a disaster her
first marriage was and how happy she is now, I tried to suck up a bit but she already knew
where I was going with that and immediately told me that I would be wearing a dress again so I
shouldn't even try to talk her into a casual wedding in which I could wear whatever I wanted.
I hate dresses, especially frilly fancy wedding ones. It was all just talk but I know it'll
happen eventually...guess I better start working out and losing weight now so I look somewhat
decent when the time comes because knowing me and my unmotivated lazy ass it'll take that long
to be satisfied. She doesn't care but my self-conscious mentality does. At any rate, I got
excited during that conversation and that hasn't happened very often lately so I wanted to
share it with the rest of the world.
Another exciting event took place for a friend of mine, she got herself a job, a GREAT job at
that! Not sure of the exact title but I've been talking her up to everyone saying she's the
assistant to the music director at one of the top 3 talent agencies in Los Angeles. That job
is so her, so right up her alley! I couldn't be happier and prouder that she followed her
dreams all the way out there and that things are falling into place for her. I know she knows
that its going to be hard but I have no doubt that she will be successful. Her determination
is one of her best assets and being such a sociable, music nerd doesn't hurt either ;-) Now
I just need to convince her to give me Chris Daughtry's cell phone number, I won't stalk, I
promise! It makes me happy to know that she's doing good out there, it gives me hope that
there is still hope for me and my ambitions...when I ever get around to sorting them out.
Heart you darlin' xoxo
Anyway, I'll shut up now, need to get to work. Just wanted to pop in and say that I'm still
around but as usual I'm slacking in the upkeep of this site. I'm not going to say that I'll
post more often because I never follow through, just know that I'm around.
