Damn,,,it's been ages! o.o
Seriously...I haven't posted to this thing in nearly two years! Damn, I've definitely neglected this thing. o.o;
For thoes of you who actually watch and read these entries. So much has happened in the course of two years. I'll sum it up for you guys if you don't read my DA journal entries.
09: I found my first job as a housesitter for a woman who is friends with Amber's Mom. We bonded well and I soon started working for her, looking after her and her husbands many animals while they work out of own. An easy job with big pay, but a seasonal job sadly.
I finally, FINALLY moved out! Amber insisted on the both of us moving out and initially I wasn't open to the idea. But I did it because I knew it was what was best for me, so I did. It was a decision I welcome with opened arms. I was FINALLY FREE from being under my Dad's roof and I haven't been this happy in ever. ^_^
Went back to college in the fall, taking online courses. Finally connected with my family in Texas, got my own laptop (that I still use now) and started getting some money coming in via my aunt. ^^
We took in a friend of ours who was kicked out my her own family. Worked out great for the first two months, but it went south soon after. What with her clutter, lack of hygiene, lack of actually helping us with the bills, and pimping herself out to old men, and trying to make me think my roomie was using me she had to go. >.> So we kicked her out in '10
'10: I turned 23. Yay! =D
Kicked our friend out just as I decided to move to Texas due to the aftermath of the fallout resulting in said girl getting kicked out. The move didn't work out well and I ended up staying only for two weeks before I returned. Yet another decision I'm happy that I made. I don't regret it one bit, at least I got to meet family that I haven't seen since I was a child. ^^
Came back, made up with Amber and things were good. Picked up more work as housesitter for a while and soon I got my first real job thanks to Amber. Since then I've been working two jobs; a steady job as a dishwasher and my seasonal job as housesitter.
Which brings up to the now. =3
December is coming up fast but we've already gotten a head start on our Christmas shopping. But as much as I enjoy living with Amber, there's one big thing that's gotten on my nerves...
Rob. >.>
Rob is Amber's current boyfriend. She met him a month ago while she was out partying. In the beginning he seemed like a really nice guy. I didn't mind him cooking for us or staying over for a few nights. At least the guy has Amber's best interest at heart.
But that's where the good points end. -.-
The guy has been staying here FOR WEEKS! Nearly every. single. day. he's here >.> It's okay if your boyfriend stays for a few days, but the guy doesn't leave altogether. When he does, it's to go to work or to go hang out with his friends.
Amber said the reason he's staying here so much is apparently he's been crashing at his friend's places for a while (again, I'm not clear on this. Doesn't the guy have a HOME to go to? Like with his family? >.>) and because it's apparently closer to get to work from here than from where he used to live.
He's also been harping at us over our lifestyle. He's made comments about us eating sweets, which the guy has sworn off of (he's afraid of getting diabetes and says candy is evil). He's also been annoyed at us going out to eat sometimes instead of eating at home and us not eating a lot of leftovers.
Now, from his point of view I can understand. Yes, we eat sweets. But we've been cutting back since we're both trying to eat healthy and loose weight. However, he can't expect us just to stop completely. As for going out and eating, we've also been cutting back on that. Only going out when Rob isn't around and eating at home when he is.
But as for the leftovers thing. Amber just won't eat anything leftover. Simple as that. I can stand leftovers, but there are certain foods I won't touch as leftovers. They don't taste as good as they do when it's freshly prepared. It's only with certain foods, not all of them really.
I'm just getting really sick of having Rob around 24/7. Amber enjoys him, but that's because she's dating him. I could care less about the stuck-up prick. I don't care if he hates us doing the things we do or hates that we live the way we live. It's our apartment! We'll do what the hell we like! >.<
They've already been talking about moving in together. There's no way I'd go along living with them. It's bad enough I already feel like a damn third wheel here at home, and I LIVE HERE! If I have to live under Rob's roof...we'd have some serious problems...
But at the same time. I'm afraid... I'm afraid of what might happen if they both move out. I'd really rather strike it out on my own, but I don't know if I could keep the apartment. It's within walking distance to work and everything. So it's a perfect living situation for me. But what if I'm kicked out? What then? I can't go back to my Dad's house. That's no longer even an option for me to consider. ...I'd be going back to a dead end life...
For now, it's just talk. Unless I see Rob actually put forth effort to make it happen, chances are it may not happen. That and I'm hoping Amber and Rob break up at some point. >.>
With that said, from now on I'll be using LJ to post entries that I can't post on DA. I don't want Amber to read these and throw them in my face later on. I need a place to rant without hurting others.
Feh, I'm tired... I'm getting some sleep -.- Still it'll be good to see who reads and replies to my entries. Any of my old LJ friends out there? =O
