Is something like choice of meat with green beans. eggroll, pork fried rice.....
It was a long day at work. I worked 11 hours straight without break. Yay, driving in my care for 11 hours. Yes I do like driving, yes I like driving in MY CAR, but 11 hours straight is a little excessive.
Luckily, conversations on my cell phone help pass the time. I talk to my new friend Pip a lot. No, his name isn't as peppy as his personality. Quite the extreme opposite actually. It concerns me a little bit how he's always depressed. I don't know how long I'll be able to take that, it rubs off on me. Maybe it's a bit of my own fault. Relationships always end up being the topic. Many of my friendships with guys I call "relationships." As in, I'll call them my boyfriend when we never really dated, just when we were very close. So, I think I need to make a conscious effort to not use the "boyfriend" word. It's a tender subject. I really hope he's ok. I really can't hang out with gloomy people, they make me sad and it seems like nothing will cheer him up. he just becomes stoic and nonresponsive.
My eyes are so itchy, i've been up since 8 and I went to bed at around 2:30-3. I can't sleep before everyone goes to bed. I've always been like that since I was a baby. My parents said I could never go to sleep before they went to bed. I don't knwo why. I think there's nervous energy/wakefulness that keeps me up, wondering what's going on.
Sarah and I put up our tree last night. I took the night off because it was so SLOW. I don't know how it got so slow. I asked to be "on call." I wouldn't have made any money that night. I'm glad I put up a tree instead. we decorated it very simply with gold, white lights, and purple bulbs. it's beautiful. even nate (anti christmas) said it was pretty. I took pictures while sarah was decorating it. She was so excited that she was bouncing.
I'm supposed to go out to Bubbas Sulky Lounge tonight for the zodiac party but there's only an hour left and I am beat. Nate wouldn't notice anyway. He would only notice when he comes home and sees that i'm here. "Oh, why didn't you come?" I know for sure that he's not there saying "oh, I wish she were here."
Guys, I need some ideas of what to get Justin for christmas. I think I have an idea, but i'll take any hints.I went shopping with my mom today. I spent under 100 bucks. I don't like spending more unless it's on car parts. My mom asked me what I wanted for christmas.... I have no idea. I think of things that I need and then I get them. What am i going to do ask for "mom I need an extention chord" or "I need rags for the sink." I loaned her 200 bucks today too. what is it with people asking me for money? My mom and Justin who owes me 180, koren owes me 900 (but that was a good cause). Plus, koren is helping me save money. ;)
I need to put out 1400 for my car and 300 for rent (those are my big things). Then I'm going to start putting most of my extra cash toward paying off the credit card and loan. i've been paying minimum for a long time but I dont' want to pay interest so I might put entire checks towards them. I think I'll do that for the rest of january so they're down at least to half then I'll take my trip to England in February. For february vacation. I think it's a good idea. Oh yeah, I need to buy a beater for deliveries. If I was feeling awake enough i'd go to cumberland farms and pick up the uncle henry's and wise guide.
I'm very excited about some things I got today. A gray wool double breasted jacket (looks perfect) for 50 bucks and a little sporty green and white jacket that I actually bought at old navy in the little boy's section. hehe. I got one just like it for Gino. I don't even know if he'll liek it. Why do people buy clothes for other people? It's so hard to do.
Right now my checks at the Wok inn are the same as at migis and the work is far less stressful and I dont' work hardly as many hours. I don't think i'll go back to migis for this reason. I'll just stay at the wok-inn. I bet we'll be busy in the summer too. winter is when people dont' want to leave their house, so it's very busy, but there will be more people vacationing in the summer. This is fun to do int he meantime. Unless I get swept away to england buy a hot british guy ??? Not that I know any......
I'm going to get a drink of water.
