So... long time since I've written on here.
I should be sleeping right now, its after 5 in the morning, haven't gone to bed yet and I got over 10 hours of driving to do today; my roommate bought a motorcycle in Wisconsin, and we're taking my truck up there so he can pick it up. Thats a good thing, I get to surprise my grandma and everyone in Stevens Point, and bring back a keg of Point Special (some of the best beer ever!)
but anyways, college is done, how crazy is that. its time to enter the real world, which for me will (hopefully) be getting a job in DC where I will be wearing a suit practically everyday, and even when I'm not at work I'll be on call to go into work at any time, I'll be doing "stuff" (AWESOME)

Other than that, I really don't know what I'm going to be doing this summer, pretty much working my decently cool job as a community crime patroller here in Columbus until I find out whether or not I pass my extensive background investigation and go to DC for training. But yea, I was about 30 yards from a drive by the other night at work, pretty exciting. I was training a new employee so that made the job that much exciting for him; we were behind and off to the side of the house that got shot up, we were standing in the alley. So, thank God they didn't miss the house, because I'd probably have some holes in me right now.
I have a chance to get a promotion, probably won't happen since I'll be gone at the end of summer, but it would be awesome if I did. Instead of making $11 an hour I'd be making more like $13/$14.

I don't know How many people I still talk to get on livejournal, other than Trace, and Marlee sometimes, but Trace you'll be gone, I'm most likely going to be in FL come July for a couple weeks or something.
My cousin just had a baby, it has big hands
my other cousin is getting married in august, and i'll be standing at her wedding
I want a new car

Other than that, my girlfriend for about a year and a half now has been in Seoul (south korea) for about 2 months now, she's teaching English over there. She is going to be gone for a year, and it kinda sucks, But I'm staying optimistic and so is she, and we both behave so its all good. And I get to talk to her practically everyday, through instant messenger or skype. Sometimes even a phone call, but whenever she calls the caller ID comes up as "unavailable" which always freaks me out because I don't know if its her calling or a future employer, so I always answer it very properly and it always ends up, 'oh hi hunny'.

I bought some new books, I've been trying to get an old friend into reading Winter of our Discontent by Steinbeck (who she loves) but apparently she just can't get into it. but that ended up causing me to go out and buy a few more of his books, since i've only read Winter of our Discontent, East of Eden, Grapes of Wrath, and Of Mice and Men. but they were all awesome, and the one I'm reading now is In Dubious Battle, and so far its great - of course. And I'm so excited that school is finally over and I can get back to reading books I want to read.

I can't wait to get back to FL so I can swim in my pool, I don't have to worry about hiding my second tattoo from the family anymore, I let it slip this past weekend that I had one, my mom wanted to kill me. But I doubt I'll be getting anymore tattoos so its all good. I used the argument that tattoos have been around almost as long as modern humans, so in getting tattoos I'm just honoring my very very very long heritage. It didn't work, but it was worth a shot.

I'm going to stop typing now
Peace
