So today is a whole different day and I feel much better! First, I got my new license.. which is good for 8 years, although I look high in my picture.
Second, I talked to him, which made me feel better. I guess I just worry too much and need to stop that.. forgot that moving day and such is like 2 days away. I blame the hormones, I dont want to be all whiney and all that, I really try, but yeah. So today I try to stop that.
Third, I went clothes shopping for school. Got a whole bunch of jeans, a brand new winter coat, and a new bookbag. Normally I would never get a really nice columbia coat like that, but my parents won a little money on vacation, so they didnt mind spending it. I felt bad, I try to be as dependent as I can, for the real world. I dont want to have to depend on people to buy me things.
Fourth, I bought a new book because I am almost done with the one I have now. It's called Middlesex, and thank goodness it is fiction because other-wise it would be really fucked up. So basically it is about this person who is born with male and female chromosomes and he/she tells his story starting from the grandparents. Basically one set of grand-parents are brother and sister. The had to flee Greece because the Turks were attacking and their village was on fire. Basically the brother said to the sister if they made it out alive that they would marry in america; which in fact happened. They met a first cousin of theirs in detroit, who was living in america with her husband bought with dowry money because no one in greece wanted her, and she didnt want them; she was a closeted lesbian. So basically, they start having kids. The grandma and grandpa have two kids; which didnt have anything phylogenetically wrong with them, a son and a daughter. The first cousin and the bought husband has a daughter. The son from grandma and grandpa marries the daughter from cousin, so basically, their genes are really fucked up. They have two kids, the narrator of the story and a older son. I am now at the part where the narrator lives childhood as a girl, but at the end, he lives himself as a man.. I am assuming she transforms when he gets to college, because that seems to be the time when people decide to become what they feel all along. Matt has first-hand knowledge of that.. what a night that was. I feel kinda sorry though, I laughed when he told me, I am sure he was a little embarrassed, but I knew it all along. I shoulda said.. 'bout time!
So yeah, I have some things I have to do before Sunday.
One, play cribbage with my uncle, I am sure he would really like that.
Two, go over to brother's house, Chad, and see Sister-in-law Susie and my little nieces and nephews, Nina, Andrew, Jake, and Lilly. How fast those kids are growing up, Nina is already 10.. seriously, I am getting old.
Third, go to target and buy some things for the apartment.
Fourth, go with ma to Verlos and see what kind of mattresses they have there.. I want a queen or a full, not a twin, I am sick of the twin, and their isnt enough room.
Fifth, possibly see the friends one last time before school.
I am sure there are more things to put on this list, but for now, this is all I can think of.
I am done writing for now, I am feeling kinda crampish.. maybe its time for a nap :)
