Ok so obviously it's been about 2 months since I've posted anything. Not much new at all... still living with the parents trying to pay off debt/save money, still working with the kiddies, blah blah blah. Which is what it seems like sometimes. Blah. But isn't that what everyone says?
I went to Michigan this past weekend for Memorial Day weekend. We stayed with my friend Molly and I got to see Tony and Kerin as well. I had a lot of things that I wanted to ponder on livejournal while I was up there, but when I was thinking of them I was pretty drunk. They don't sound quite so philosophical now that I'm back and sober. :) While I had fun, it was sad at the same time. Things are so different than they were. I know, how dumb. Of course they are. It's been a few years, we're grown ups now. Well, some of you are. I still feel like a kid most of the time... or maybe that post-kid/pre-adult. Like I should have found some sort of direction by now. But, what's the point in comparison? Most of the time I'm pretty happy.
Part of the sucky part lately is that I don't see Parker at all. Ever. Unless it's in passing around 7 am. He's been working nights for his job, supervising out on the tollway. Apparently field experience is good and will benefit him. Too bad it sucks for us. I'm not used to sleeping alone. I think I'm being a pretty good sport about it, but I don't know how long that can last.
We're going to Florida next Wednesday with his family. That will be nice, to spend time with him on the beach. I have a feeling he's going to be exhausted the whole time though and not really enjoy it. Everyone loves a pessimist, right? :) Then like 10 days after that we're going to Europe for a few weeks with my family. Can't a girl just relax!?! HAHAHA I bet you all feel sooo bad for me. 0:-) Ohhh boy.
I'm going to try to apply for a school in Chicago to go and get my teaching certificate beginning in the spring next year. I think if that happened tho I'd want to move downtown. So I have some time to convince the parker.
Louise, I'm really excited for you that you're buying a house. I'm sorry we haven't hung out in months, too. I've seen your sister more than you! Call me sometime and maybe we can hit the Dairy Mart for a soft serve. :)
