Grrr. . . all can do is grrrr.
Well, it’s over 90 degrees in Northern Ohio, and Tom and I decided to visit my mom and uncle who don’t have Air-conditioning. I love my cuddly cat Mona, but she loves to cuddle when the temperature is 90 degrees . . . rolls my eyes. I wish I had brought the camera as the kitten Talbot is getting so big and he has these amazing stripes.
So today: Tom, mom, and I went to the library today. A few things that I have noticed: one the computers in the library are slower then my own computer and they cannot accomplish multi-tasking.
I feel less guilty than I did over the weekend as Tom and I came over my mom's house and made dinner for my mom and uncle.
Mom is also going to hang out with us over the weekend and I am making sure my uncle has enough cigs and food for the weekend. We are just going to vegg-out and watch movies as we got coupons from our cable company for a free movie.
I am beginning to hate these computers at the library . . . damn DSL. It’s supposed to be high speed connection on the Internet and the computers are supposed to be update. (I mean the 5-7 year-2.7million dollar levy for the library passed several years ago.) I try to type and my Internet gets locked up or I leave my writing alone and it gets locked up . . . grrrrr. This is a pain in the ass . . . I am just even more grateful for my computer, and Tom’s apartment with air-conditioning and having a store just down the street. I will admit I am spoiled. (Damn it, my Internet has locked again for the third time . . . grrrr)
My mom was telling me several of my old teachers in high school have retired. In fact 15 teachers in the high school have retired this year, and I’ll be honest I think it’s the city forcing them to. . . I mean I can see them pushing the benefit package or extra money in a pension. I can’t as been almost ten years since I have been in high school. . . most of the people I hung out with I have found on facebook.com and they are married, have kids, both or have some super-great life. What have I done in the last ten years? I have started a bunch of projects; I have an empty Associates of Arts, and a great boyfriend & a cuddly cat. I love Mona and Tom very much, but I want to truly accomplish something . . . travel all over the world, publish my writing, and perform my own music: I just really want to experience life! I feel like I can’t face family (my father’s side) or my old classmates until I accomplish something . . . until I finish something. Am I putting too much pressure on myself?
I have been writing at least one page everyday, and I have been trying to help out everyone where I can.
The other thing I have been enjoying is when Tom and I read together. We reading a book called “The Tale of the Body Thief” It is book four of the Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles. It’s great as we laugh and talk about the story. The thing that gets me is as we are reading, I have to either lay in bed or sit in the tub, because I keep getting ideas . . . please don’t get me wrong as a writer I want ideas, but can my brain store them until after I am done reading?
If I had any advice I can give to a kid: It be have fun, and you want something, earn the money and get it, because when you are grown up bills take all of the money. I understand as you grow up paying the bills are as natural as breathing . . . and I honestly don’t mind paying as long as I know I am getting my money’s worth on the utility. However I don’t appreciate rude people taking my money. . . I mean yesterday: Tom and I had to deal with the rudest bank teller. I mean just had no understanding that we just walked a mile in 90 degree weather and we still had to print out pages and catch the bus. We were missing a piece of our bill, that part was my fault, when I opened it, I ripped it my accident. Tom had to walk back to the apartment and back to the bank in horrible weather. I would have done it, but my shoes are completely blown out, and the bill was in Tom’s name. (He allowed me to open it earlier in the week for budgeting purposes.) I wouldn’t have cared about the situation, but the teller was just a bitch to us . . . I think if you have a job where you deal with people on a constant basis, then you to take several personality tests, and take classes on dealing with the public. (I think I have posted this before.)
My father offer Tom a job painting the hallways, and dinning room so, I think I am going to take him up on his offer and either do this next week or the week after.
I am also so sick of this Twilight crap, and I am refusing to buy anything or eat anything from Burger King until this Twilight bullsh*t is over!
Anyway on another note, yes I have changed my background, and soon as I dye my hair either the end of this month or next month, I will have different pictures.
