So yeah I have been meaning to make a post for a good long time now and just finally decided to make one. I will start off discussing the things that I have been telling myself that I would like to post on. First is about one of the most amusing things I have seen in the past couple of weeks. I was taking the 168 home after work one afternoon and when I looked out the window of the bus at a gas station we where approaching and saw a lady in what looked to be a white formal dress trying to shove a large over filled suitcase into the back of there small Kia sedan. As the bus came closer to this lady I noticed that the white formal dress was instead a wedding gown and that her car was covered in flowers and writing. At this point I also saw her husband in his tuxedo with his shirt tails hanging out and his bow tie undone standing beside the car with a dripping squeegee chuckling at his wife struggling to get the suitcase into the car. When I saw this I just started laughing at how ridiculous this scene was, but after initially laughing I realized how true this scene really was. I mean really that’s life isn't it? In the movies this couple would never have been at the gas station and would have driven off from their wedding in a limo or beautiful old luxury car, but this instead was how life really is the car is less then impressive the couple needed to get gas so that they would be able to get to the airport and their suitcases would not fit in the car. I really enjoyed seeing this because it’s the type of thing that you don't see too often...or at least I don't. The other thing that I have seen in the recent weeks that caught me off guard also accrued on the bus. Again I was on the 168 headed home and I looked at out the window I saw a lady in a passing car crying heavily. This may not seem like such an odd thing to see, but in all honesty I can't say I have actually ever seen it before and very rarely do I ever see people crying. I don't know at that moment I just started trying to think of the reasons why this lady would be crying. Oddly (or maybe not so oddly) I assumed it was boyfriend troubles. Maybe that was what made it so strange that upon seeing a lady crying for a reason completely unknown to me I just sorta assumed that it was a problem with a boyfriend. Its probably because that is one of the only reasons I cry like that and I can see that in others, but most likely I think it speaks highly on what I value most...and I'm not so sure that’s a good thing...thought I'm not so sure its a bad thing either. I had one more thing that I had planned to talk about but as of now it has seemed to slip my mind so I will move on to things. I guess I will talk about my job now since I really haven't posted much about that in live journal. My job has been going great so far the people that work there are all so cool. Well...most of them anyway. There is this girl that I just don't get. The few times that I have worked with her she kinda weirder me out...which is probably mean of me to say because she seems like a nice person its just...I don't know I think she might be a little anti-social because she seems to be unable to hold a conversation. I mean I have tried to talk to her, but its like everything just turns into a awkward silence. I think she likes me though, so it’s kinda weird. The second day I worked with her she invited me to meet up with her to see Pirates (I was unable to go) and the seconded day I worked with her she asked for my phone number. She told me that she wanted my phone number just incase she needed someone to cover for her...but the way she asked me for it I half expected her to ask me on a date and not my phone number, I was quite relieved when that was all she asked for. She has only called me once since I gave her my number and when she did it was a rather odd conversation where all she did was ask if I was working that week and when I told her I did so was like "oh..ok bye" so I really don't know what to think about this. The only other poor thing about my work is hours, I just don't have enough I work only about 15 hours a week which could be a lot better, but money is money and I can't really complain because I have such a good time working there as it is. I guess it is good though because it leaves my schedule open to do other things like hang out with Josh. Which is actually harder then you might think with him living here and all. Actually as it is I think I saw him more often before he was living with me. I told Melanie this would happen...but I didn't think it would be quite like this. Like right now he is working nights which means he is gone from 9pm till 7am which are just some crazy hours and I can't believe that he even agreed to that...but again money is money. Luckily the next time I work is not till Friday and then I only have to work 11-4 so its not so bad and better then my regular shifts which are 5-10. So if any of your guys are bored you should come say hello to me at work this Friday. Oh something else new is that I now have a new bike its so great it makes me happy actually I am planning to take it out for a ride tomorrow which will be a lot of fun, if any of you guys are into riding bikes around tell me and we will plan a ride sometime. Ryan was funny I went to visit him after riding the sues creek trait and he was laughing and my out fit since I guess bike shorts don't quite do it for him, but never the less they are a hell of a lot more comfortable then regular shorts when you are riding a bike for an extended period of time. Oh wow another new thing that I forgot to mention is that we have two new kittens that are just adorable...but recently that have become less cut and more hyper and are attacking peoples feet and what not. I wish I could show you guy’s pictures of them, but I don't have any on my photobucket, I might put some pictures on a later post. Anyway getting to what I did today. Nothing really too much happened today I went to the dentist early this afternoon to do a consultation for having my wisdom teeth removed which is going to be a great deal of fun and I am sure I will enjoy. After that I gave Melanie a call to wish her happy birthday and had a short conversation with her that didn't really go anywhere (something just seemed off, don't know) and then I watched three movies. Little Black Book, Match Point, and Alex and Emma. Match Point was obviously the best out of the bunch mainly because it had Scarlett Johansson in it. She is a great actor and the fact that is gorgeous doesn't hurt. It was also good because it was written and directed by Woody Allen. I would recommend it to all of you, but I warn you it is a little depressing. The other two movies weren’t good but they weren’t bad either they where fun to watch chick flicks (which is my favorite type of movie) Which reminds me the other day I watched "Pride and Prejudice" and if you guys still haven't seen that movie I recommend that you do because it is defiantly worth your time. That about wraps up my day so yeah it really wasn't all that productive, but hell at least I enjoyed the movies.
