stuff
Being a girl sucks sometimes. I'll get over it by tomorrow I'm sure, but blech.
Anyways, news... I did find, and reserve a reception site. I also found a dress that I love, am working on a headpiece and my mum is playing with bouquet ideas for me. Got a dress for Cass and have an appt at the dress shop to see if the other 2 girls will wear the same dress or if I'll send them off with a swatch of the color.
Called a few places about apartments but not much response.
Work has good days and bad days. I'm getting into the routine now if you can call it that. Sometimes I work on the line at the ARC. Sometimes they send me to the line at Zoto's. Once last week they sent me to Crosman's. I do a lot of doubles when I sub for people. Doubles mean 8 am til 8:30 pm. So I leave home at 7:40 and don't get back till almost quarter of 9. Which is okay sometimes, the more you work the more you get paid, but tough sometimes with all the things I'm trying to plan.
When I clean at night though, which is the subbing I've been doing lately, it's a great time to sing and to think. Last night I was imagining West Side Story. I could picture in my head Tony (right?) singing about Maria, what a beautiful name and how he'd "Never heard a sound like Maria". And in walks in this other girl. She comes right up to him and says something like "I'm Maria! You're lifelong friend... or until now at least!!!!!" She smacks him and walks out. I guess that's prolly not that funny unless you're in my mind, which - trust me - you dont' want to be in my mind, but I was quite amused.
Family life is stressful, but if I remember correctly we've all survived much worse, so I'm think(hope)ing it will all be fine.
And I'm on week 2, tomorrow, of literacy tutor training. 9-3 last Sat, this Sat, and next Sat. 18 hours of training so I'll be able to to adult literacy tutoring. Which is kind of exciting but I won't be able to start the actual tutoring until after the wedding I don't think, too many responsibilities, tasks and stresses right now as it is.
I miss people from Houghton. And from NRW. Went back to Wolcott for a lil' bit a few months ago and was reminded of how much I hate the town, but I did have some great friends there and most of them I rarely if ever talk to any more. I definitely miss them :(
