OOOHH well things have been good, bad, wierd and just crazy. Even though we don't celebrate thanksgiving my mom came into town for the week and it was soo good to see her. She came in on the 20th of nov. and left on teh 27th. My mom hasn't flown in over 20 years and its just great that her frist trip was to come and see me. She had a great time and the flying wasn't that bad for her so she thinks she might do it again. I am soo proud of her and her accomplishments. I NEVER thought she would fly again so Im proud of her for overcoming her fears. We had such a great time while she was here. We of course went shopping and just did somet things around the city that my mom had never done. The one thing that did happen which kinda made me upset was that my mom took my car to get the tires alligned and rotated but when she took it there they guy told and showed her some things that were wrong with my car .. so my mom ended up saying GO AHEAD and fix them .. we ended up spending pretty much HALF of what my car is worth .. in other words WAY TO MUCH. So I went to go pick up my car when supposidly everything had been fixed and the car was idleing HORRIBLY. So I told they guy and he said they had dropped some oil somewhere but it should burn off after driving the car for a while. So a week goes buy and not only is it sputtering when it idles but it is now making a rattleing noice ... So I take the car back an the guy is arguing saying "how do I know if you didn't do this to the car yourself when you were driving it" ... we told him it was running WORSE when we left this place then when we brought it in. soo in the end we had to pay just for the part being replaced but still REDICULOUS.... soo kinda frustrated with that and sorry my mom had to deal with it while she was here.
The craziesest thing is that soon im SUPPOST TO be having finals .. but my school is on STRIKE. A 4 year university has not gone on strike in over 20 years .. and MINE decides to. They are wanting to get paid more and be responsible for a smaller work load. HELLO WHO DOESN'T WANT THAT!! lets be realistic .. I DONT THINK THAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. SO the school has been on strike now for 2 weeks .. and they are not scheduled to have another meeting with the union until the 8th which means no class. I e-mailed both of my teachers and they both said we will not have class until the strike is over. SOOO what to do what to do. Im not to worried though because this semester is kinda a waste anyways. These classes will not go towards my degree .. since I have changed it since the begining of the semester. SO its kinda nice to have a break.
Works been good ... I applied for a new position at work and so far things look good. Im not trying to be to opptomistic because it will just be harder when it doesn't happen but I would like to think that I would get the new position. I applied to me an assistant to the Manager of Finance and to one of the Marketing guys.. kinda dual assistant ... but now I think the position has changed and I am being considered for the position JUST for the Marketing guy .. which I actually think I would like more because he is really a great person and easy to work with and talk with. So we shall see what happens. We have a company Christmas party coming up and Im alittel afraid of what it will be like. Coworkers have to much to drink .. Kerioke and I don't just sounds kinda like a bad combination. Also we our going to be moving our office space again and right now they are looking at an office out in the suburbs ... I DO NOT want to move my job to the suburbs... at frist I thought this would be ok because I would be going OPPOSITE the morning commute but I have talked to several people who live in the city and commute out the the suburb my job is moving to and they say it is AWEFUL... that doesnt sound good. So again we shall see what happens. Work is going to be HELL next week .. My manager is going to be gone and she told me that I will be the one in "charge" so to speak ... so any one that has any problems will come to me. The think that I find so IRONIC is that she gave me so much CRAP about how I didn't need to go on my ITALY trip because a catalog (nothing new added by the way) was going out and soo things might be alittle busier .. but she is leaving on a week when a SPECIAL will be going on (AKA BUSY) and we have a NEW PERSON (AKA HER FIRST DAY) AND .. HER manage none the less will not be in either! OH MAN soo funny ... so funny... I MEAN SHE IS A HYPOCRITE .. I guess I should expect it.
I don't know what is wrong with me but some how me and my ex keep talking .. I think ok its over Im done and we are NEVER going to talk again and then somehow it ends up we start talking again. I don't know what to think of it all .. I want to go out and meet different people and not think about him but somehow we end up talking again... its kind of redicoulus. I don't know what I want. He was ENGAGED ... HELLO.. what does that tell me .. he was engaged to someone else .. soo LEAVE HIM ALONE .. but convenetly he calls me after not having talked for a year .. at the time of his engagement. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN .. now he "says" he has broken all ties and he is really working on getting his life together ... and how he really wants to see me ... am I just a sucker and am I just being nieve and dumb, or is there really something there between us. I really don't know. I try not to let myself get to attatched and really don't let to many emotions come through .. the thing was I have been talking to his mom alot and I CAN NOT BELEIVE but she told me that her son was engaged and that "she always had hoped is was me that he was going to marry" WHAT WHAT am I suppost to think of that!!?? soo crazy soo crazy ... im just going to try and take it one day at a time.
OK well I think it is time for me to GO .. .if complained, bitched and rambled on enough ... one day I PROMISE my live journal update will be POSITIVE, EXCITING And FUN... haha
