Thanksgiving Recap and other Nonsensical Things!

Nov 30, 2005 01:40

So...Thanksgiving. Been dreading it all month long. So basically it consisted of me getting no sleep the night before...because for some reason my body has decided that for the last month and a half that it needs no sleep...and then waking up at an early hour. So got up (and everyone else in my house up about 7:30) and got dressed. Then we finally left the house at around 10:30, thanks to my dad. I swear it takes him longer to get dressed than any of us. We drive 2 1/2 hours to get to my grandparents house. We get there and then we had to wait another 30-45 minutes for everyone to arrive. Now mind you that these people we were waiting on actually, physically live in the same town as my grandparents and they were the ones who were late to everything. Well as soon as we walked in the door my grandparents started on my dad. Now there has been a bit of a feud going on in my family for the last year or so and this is the first time that we have been to my grandparents house in almost a year and a half. I haven't seen my grandparents since my graduation in May which was 6 months ago and to be honest I am really surprised they even came to that. But they start on my dad about all kinds of things...making little remarks that drive that knife a little farther in. So about 45 minutes after we arrive we sit down to eat, the grandparents at one table, my mom and dad at the other. Then, once we got done with dinner my dad went and sat in the living room and it wasn't 15 minutes later before he popped up and said let's go and we did. So we drove another 2 1/2 hours home almost in complete silence. Boring...and by the time we got home it was about 4:00 in the afternoon and I was bored and everyone was ill with each other...so I decided to go to Walmart and K-Mart! So that was the extent of my Thanksgiving. And my sisters just don't understand why I hate the holidays so much. It's because they always get ruined because of crap other people do. I almost wish that I could have the holidays to myself just one time. Like Home Alone or something. They are less likely to be ruined that way...unless of two crazy burglars decide they want to break into my home and steal everything in it. Then we have a problem...but I digress!

On a happier note...I bought myself a new pet last week...a new beta fish. His name is Freddie Mercury! It kinda suits him. When I get ready to change the water in his bowl I get to say "Ready Freddie" and I find it amusing and laugh...he just looks at me funny. Then again he is a fish and fish do tend to look at you funny...if he didn't I should probably be a bit concerned!

Nothing new on the job front! Once again probably didn't get that job I applied and interviewed for. Haven't heard officially yet, but its been my experience that if they don't call for over a week after you interviewed you then chances are they are not interested. But that's okay, I didn't really want that job anyway...but I really am depressed about it. This job thing is really taking a toll on my self-esteem. I read someone's web page a little bit ago and he said that he was depressed because he didn't get a call back on his first interview...I said wait buddy until you have had applied for almost 23 jobs in the last 3 months and no one will hire you. Then we'll talk. I think maybe I should just give up! And if I have to listen to one more person tell me that I should have been a teacher I am going to scream! How many times do I have to say it...I DO NOT WANT TO BE A TEACHER! So everyone get off my back! Thanks so much! So anyway I give up now...don't know exactly what I'm going to do with my life but apparently it does not involve working...so anyway this entry is getting ridiculously long now...I'm going to watch a movie! G'nite!
