Another long, boring entry
I'm so exhausted that I just want to crawl into bed and sleep the rest of the day away, but I can't. I been trying to go back to sleep for the past hour and it isn't happening, how depressing :(
My mom woke me up before 9:30 to ask me if I wanted to go to Wal-Mart with her to get some groceries and I told her no because I told her last night I didn't want to go grr. Then HallMark called to say that they got the wallet in that I ordered!! You can't imagine how embarassing that was to tell them that you already ordered it after they went through all that trouble but the woman was really nice about it, thank goodness. I guess I was just too cautious about it when the manager said there was a good chance they couldn't get it because it was so popular and because the print was retiring very soon and if he did get it, it would probably be several weeks and it wasn't even a week! Eeek! So now my mom is all going about how I let people down, how I was an inconvience to them, how hard they worked to get it and I'm just like I was being cautious Mom! What if they couldn't have ordered it and I didn't buy the one on Ebay and I could never find one at that price again? I know it isn't a necessity, just a want, but still it makes me smile when I think about it. Sheesh, mothers! So yes, I emailed the nice lady I bought the wallet from and asked her to please inform me when she sends it out so I can be on the lookout for it. Edit: She just emailed me back and said she is shipping it today and should be here within four days :)
Speaking of my mom, she aggravates me. I have been wanting to meet her german friend that lives about an hour away from here for awhile. I finally get the opportunity because my mom and her best friend are going today and last week my mom said I could go because I'm off. Then my mom goes behind my back and tells them, I'm not going before discussing it with me. Her reasoning? We will be speaking German all the time and you won't understand a word we're saying and it will be too boring for you. I guess she's right, but still! I like to get out sometimes, you can't imagine how happy I was to just get out and drive around yesterday!
But yesterday my parents and I went to Roanoke to look at new cars, I'm shocked my mom agreed after that tantrum she had when we wanted to go the other day! Unfortunately we didn't really find one she liked. First car we looked at was a 2004 Toyota Solara that is almost exactly like mine but it is white instead of red. That was a nice car! It wasn't the sport edition like mine is but it was very nice. It had leather seats and seat warmers but it looked like all the other options were the same and my dad really liked it also but my mom didn't because she thought the car was too big and I've had my car how long?!? And the price wasn't so bad either, it had about the same mileage mine does (I'm almost at 8,000 miles) and the price was just over $21,000. Still expensive but I don't guess so bad considering I paid (am still paying) over $28,000 for mine lol. But I do love my car, yes it costs a lot but I don't know how to explain it, I guess there is a sense of pride in having something you've always wanted. My first car, a 1992 Pontiac Sunbird, was a cute car and my parents did pay for that, I was almost 17 at the time and it was right before I got a job. Then after a year, I got my second car right before graduation, my parents made a few payments on that until I got my first job and ever since I been paying payments on my own and that makes me proud. Yes I do hate my job some days, I would sometimes much rather be at home than at work, but it feels good to have a job and be able to pay for things I want with money I worked hard to earn. It's kind of hard to explain and I'm sure nobody really understands what I'm saying, but that's ok lol, I got a little off topic there! Then we looked at Volkswagen Beetle Convertibles and my mom liked them but she said they were too expensive *rolls eyes* she also said she didn't think she could see out of it because of something with the seats, I don't know, anyways lol. Then we looked at some Honda Accords and she liked them but also thought they were too expensive so it looks like we went out in the snow yesterday for no reason lol. It was good to get out though, we hardly ever go to Roanoke, and I got a good lunch/supper out of it. So yes, it was a good day yesterday :)
I go back to work tomorrow and I'm kind of nervous/excited about it. It's been nice to be home for almost 2 weeks and not have to do anything unless I want to, but I feel like such a lazy bum! I couldn't imagine how I would be if I didn't have a job, sheesh lol. I think that may be part of the reason I didn't sleep well last night is because I'm nervous about going back. The doctor told me I couldn't do much lifting, reaching, or stretching for atleast a month and maybe more considering what a hard time I had with the surgery. It should be fun considering all I did before I got sick was do the OTC manager's job and stock and pull risers so I can't imagine who he is going to have do them now! I know it sounds mean but I hope they appreciate me a bit more now lol. One of the cashiers commented about how much work they had to do while I was gone and how it was too much and they told me what all they had been doing and it was exactly what I was doing each and every day I was there! It's sickening! So I guess we will see how that goes!
Well I better end this entry now, it turned out to be a very boring/stupid one but oh well it kept me occupied for about 20 minutes lol. I been online since 9:30 in hopes that Amanda would come online because she said she would be online in the morning but I haven't seen any sign of her :( It figures, I wake up early and nobody is online lol. Tiff is supposed to come online in about 20 minutes so I am anxiously waiting for that hehe. I hope my mom brings back Subway like I nicely requested because I been craving a sub from there for a few days hehe. Until next time!
