Hiking, Friends, Free Tickets!, and other everyday things...
Well, I went hiking with my friend Hillary in Oak Ridge last weekend. It was great (pics posted on myspace), we went to two different parks, hiked several trails, found a couple of waterfalls, and took over 200 pics between the both of us. We went mainly to take cute pics b/c we both like to do that. I enjoyed spending the day with her, talking about nothing and everything. We haven't had time like that together in a while. It was worth the two hour drive up there and home later. I am just worried that she is too attached to this current casual boyfriend b/c they both knew from the begining that he would be graduating this May and leaving for another state to be gone forever probably, but both decided to try it anyway knowing it was useless, trying not to get attached.. well he is already cutting ties ready to go, but she is more attached to him than she meant to be b/c she is getting really depressed that he is leaving. But the main problem is she is missing her pills!! she missed two while I was up there!! in a row! I am so afraid she is gonna end up pregnant with his kid and he is gonna be gone for good before she can even let him know about it. and she will be stuck with a child to raise on her own just when she is ready to make all these plans for school next semister. I am kinda worried, but I hope it's all for nothing. But overall the weekend was great and I had a great time, we hope to do it again sometime this summer. I would give tons more detail, but at the moment I am at work and can't seem to type correctly today and I keep having to fix stuff which wastes time. so on to the next thing
Another friend of mine is in the process of moving b/c she will be getting married this summer and they finally found a house! Yay for them!! but I get to go help her paint some this weekend, which I don't mind b/c I need the experiance b/c we plan to remove wallpaper and paint my kitchen this summer... I am really excited for her b/c she graduates college in a few weeks too so we should be able to spend more time together.
And Yet another friend of mine got officially engaged a few weeks ago, but her wedding won't be for another year or so. But I am gonna be Maid of Honor in that wedding, we have already been looking at planners and such. I am so excited for her b/c I really think her and the guy (who is an old school friend of both of ours) will work out great. They are gonna start looking for a house as soon as she graduates in May also this year... (I have 3 graduations, a wedding and my b-day this month and possibly 6-flags)
We got Free Tickets to 6-flags which I am really excited about!! we plan to go around my b-day (end of May) if the other couple can go on that date too (the same said couple who just got engaged) We are just wanting another couple to go with to take pics with, plus we get along good with them and it should be a great time. I hope it all works out the way we want b/c even if they can't go we are still going. We also got free tickets to a concert in June, not one of our favorite people, but we have heard of him and they were given to us, so we can't complain, still unsure if we will go or not, we may give the tickets away. we'll see.
The library is a disaster from the construction and we have been closed for two weeks for a move, I am so tired of moving things, and dodging workers and the dirt and mess everywhere! how can we do everyday functions if our computers aren't even set up or the outlets are not even working? Plus we are supposed to Re-open in a few days.... how is this gonna happen if we don't even have computers to checkout on working? or even steps that lead into the building set up?? Everything is a mess and has been, hence why I haven't been on here much in the last few weeks, no working computers there...
I am over halfway through my new journal and will probably have it done in another 2 weeks if I keep up at the pace I am going. I have had alot of stuff to think about and write about lately with the trips, friends, our friend dying, and normal everyday things not to mention some of the weird dreams I have been having. The cats are all fine and being holy terrors! lol which is usual for them so no big deals there. I am kinda curious as to how Tank will respond to us being gone for days at a time b/c our trip to St. Augustine, FL is in less than 2 months. and he has never been left alone overnight. Daddy will stop in to check on them and make sure they have food and stuff, but I wonder if he will be depressed? he is REALLY attached to me... but he will have the other boys there for company so it's not like he is completely alone. So we will have to see.
UM, I think this is mostly it for now... if my head wasn't hurting so bad, I might add more details about the trip about how I got a surprising insight into how different mine and Hill's personallities are.. just from an incident that happened on a trail. but more explainations if I get time later...lets just say it didn't put her ina good light b/c She KNEW the prize was right infront of her. all she had to do was get through one hard part, but yet she gave up and still wouldn't do it. Whereas I didn't know where the prize was, but I pushed myself and even at the point where I wanted to give up. I pushed a little farther b/c on faith I believed i was close and it was there.. I made it to the top of the bluff and seen the great view (got the prize), but she wouldn't do it even when she knew it was right there! It was kinda an eye opening experiance b/c it all of a sudden related to everything she does in her life to me... It was a really strange moment and I thought about it all weekend... but oh well I am at work and must go... I will be glad when our computers are fixed and I can be on more often... lol later!
