So summer has been pretty boring and a let down if I'm being honest.
May--> There was the accident. And as if that week couldn't get worse, I checked my grades, hey I failed Macroecon. Oh, and then we had to cancel the Nashville trip. Oh and the last weekend of the month and my first day back from the accident, I had this sick feeling when I got to work, well around 7:30 that night a kid who was riding his bike gets hit by a car right in front of BK across from us on Merrit. I was like omg!
June---> Started with me taking the Chem final, since I got out of it, and unfornately it was mostly on test 2 which the prof. never gave back to me because he always had something else to do after classes, and I wasn't waiting till 9:00 at night to get the damn test!
Then if the day couldn't get worse, while I'm at work that night we get this really bad storm, well I'm at Rita's with Laura and it's like 9 and we're talking and I hear dripping, well I look over and our ceiling is majorly leaking, then it starts to leak again in another place and another and another, and i get rained on a lil bit. So then I come home from work, and my Mom calls from Uncle Chuck's and is like check downstairs so I open the door turn on the light, and I was like OMFG!!!!! I could see that the basement had flooded from the top step!!! My Mom was like call your Dad and I'll call Kristen. So they both come over, my Dad is in a pissy mood because of his house, and was being an ass. Bascially I come home at 10:10, and for 2 hours after that I'm moving things upstairs (mind you my shoulder and leg is still messed up, I still have bruises, and I'm still real achy) and drying things. After everything is over and they leave, I notice hey the power went out and seriously came back on like 2 min. before I got home (TG because me walking into a dark house alone, uhh no), which explains why when I came home and went upstairs I heard Mavey downstairs howling, he was so happy to have someone home!
So then, my Mom comes home that weekend, which had prompted Kristen to be a real bitch about cleaning up the house. It was almost as if I had had a huge party and had to clean up, except I think we had more cleaning because my sister was crazy!!!
So then, the following week, we had to take Maverick to the vet for an operation, he had a cist and it was bothering him and looking damn ugly, so we got it removed, well Kristen drops him off and the vet is like, I don't know, he's an old dog, we'll do the best we can, and she's like OMG!!! But he came through it fine, so me and my dad went and picked him up. It was a long day after that, he was very jittery and didn't want to sit or lay down, so he was standing at the door and he started to fall asleep standing and he hit his head into the door. Finally he laid down. But then that night and for the next few days, he didn't want to go to the bathroom, except one time a day, and he wasn't allowed to use steps, it was long couple days. Then we get a call and the vet says the tumor was cancerous, but they don't think it spread, watch that area if it comes back, bring him in immediately. He's doing good now. Back to acting like a puppy (he's 12!).
Then as June was taking FOREVER!!! to be over with, I basically just worked the rest of the month. Except towards the end of the month, it was Jenna's last weekend. Well I was supposed to work with her all weekend long. So Friday, we go in and Laura's like she can leave, so she leaves at 6. So then Sat. she didn't take the whole day off but she needed to leave so she txts me to see if I could come in earlier, I didn't respond and came in at 12, and Jenna leaves. Then SUnday, Laura calls me around 11, you won't have to come in (I was the call out person). Then around 1 Jenna txts me, you hear anything from work? I was like yea, I got called out. She's like, well that sux I was gonna call out. I was like, what a bitch! Go ahead but I can't come in I have plans. So I'm in the grocery store and around 3:30 Laura calls me, I shouldn't have answered the phone, well she goes Jenna just called out, SHane said you have to come in because you were supposed to work anyway. I was like FUCK!!! So I was able to go in but I had to switch shifts with Katelyn to do it.
Then on 6/30, was the Tim/Faith concert. I was looking forward to it, they're not my favorites but still. Plus $100 for a tix, yea it should be good. So anyway, it was no prob. getting to the Verizon Center and everything. Well Faith goes first, then Tim comes on and he sounds hoarse, so after the second song, he's like forgive me but I'm losing my voice, but I didn't want to miss a show. So not only did he cut a few songs but they cut a few duos also, and for the last 15 min. of his performance to try and elongate the time he was on stage, he signed autographs, sux tho because only people who were on the floor could get them! And it sucked even more because this was the second night of the performance, which was the date that had been planned for months, but they added another date, thur night the 29th. Well they song more songs that night and Tim was feeling better. But at least we saw them, after that they cancelled a few shows because he came down with bronchitis.
So at the beginning of the summer country started playing this one song, "If you're going through hell" by Rodney Atkins, well the first 30 seconds of the song, really applied to those 2 months...
"Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Say's I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do"
July and August to come!!!
