Not old, just older

Jun 11, 2008 00:59

I am a quarter of a century old.

I still feel no different than the previous day. I still look like I'm 18. -lol- I'm not complaining; for later I might need it. XD I'm still the same. I know I should be I suppose more grown up at this point with choices, but then again, who says I have to follow everyone?? I'm still going to go at my own pace. I might push myself a bit more, or at least up to a certain point. I know that I'm not going to be at the same place where I am forever, people move on, jobs changes, things like that. It's hard for people to understand my way of thinking, making me look lazy and unorganized with my life. Just because I don't do most adult things like insurance and such. -sighs- I know I should be more responsible at this point of my life. I think I've already ranted on this before. I'm slowly working up to becoming an adult. -lol- as painful as it is.
I had a wonderful start to it. I dreamt that I drowned. Which was wonderful. :/

So the outing was at least fun. there was only 3 of us going, including me. Too many people busy, but I didn't want to book things. Lindsay couldn't go because she was broke. Even though I offered to pay for one part of her outing; even though it was my birthday. She declined and said that if we come home early or decided not to go out, we could hang out with her and the boyfriend and friends at their place where they were having a party of their own. As much as I would love to with them, I wanted to go OUT, away from homes at least for one night. So we bought some wine and I tried a energy drink with vodka before leaving, to celebrate a little bit. Got sunburned only one side of my shoulder, only a small rectangle patch which is still annoying as Hell. As much as I wanted to go out to Zayphod's, it was too goth for them. -lol- THese people wear colors and tan. It would be out of place for them. So I dressed up pretty, or as much as I can without cringing. XD I still wore a nice tank top with tiny skulls and a skirt. Yeah. The non goth one. And finished the ensemble with sandals that I used for Kev's wedding. So I was somewhat girly for one night. We ended up going to a place that had a dress code down to the hat. It was the only place I could think of going without a huge line, and midnight was fast approaching; I wanted to have at least one drink in me before then. Bumped into another person from work, it was a little entertaining for a moment but as we got back inside, we lost each other. It was busy and crowded anyways, playing just dance music, some of them I don't usualy listen to, because of all the clones. But I was determined to have a good time. I only had about 2 drinks in me, and I couldnt' do it anymore because the heat in that place was stiffling, making my chest hurt, so I had to order a cup of ice to chew on. It was a hot night too, so that didn't help. So we went on the dance floor, mostly half joking dancing because of the music and of the people dancing around us. Two guys were trying to hit on me and Aurelie. which was amusing cause they were already smashed to begin with and we didn't hear anything of what they said. So we danced till last call and me and Aurelie had to stop a few time during that because our feet hurt like Hell. The car wouldn't start when we got back to it, which was funny. I went to crash right after I got home. My feet hurt. And still does. I think I messed up my legs somehow and the change in weather doesn't help. Luckily I took my birthday off as well to recuperate. So much that it still hurt on Monday and I had an 8 hour shift on door. It was not good because my knee was killing me all weekend because of the weather. lol- I'm getting old, my stepdad teased. But it was swollen since Sunday and I've been icepack-ing since I got off work yesterday. Called in "sick" today because it hurt to put any weight and still swollen when I woke up. I fell asleep lik at 4 this morning. How can nothing be wrong with my knee?? -sighs- I think I have too much pressure on it or something.
I opened my gifts on Sunday. I got fun cards along with nice ones from my mother and memere. I received a wii game so I get to kill zombies yayy!! a dead rubber ducky, a robot pencil sharpener that walks when you wind when you sharpen your pencils. a nice Nightmare before Christmas scarf obviously can't be worn at this time and the 12" figurine of the Goblin King himself. The talking one. All of these things are on my desk; except for the scarf. My dad called me first; which was a surprise to me. Though my sister hadn't done so yet. I know she was gone to a wedding but she was back since Sunday. :( I was hoping this would continue and not someone reminding her. It's all good. I'm going to call her up for her birthday and guilt trip her. -lol-
So my memere is back home and doing good. I called her to thank her for the card. The call was good. She did mention that she was weak, but she was in the hospital for over a week, so it was understandable. She's now up to the walker stage but I think it's for now until she starts walking like usual; but I know she'll use it more, she's 92 and she's just starting to grow old. -lol-
And Lindsay is supposed to be doing all right now. And she promised that we would go out sometime. So Naomy is coming up for a visit soon. Since it's summer now, we can actually go out and look for guys. XD So more outings would be nice. And let's not forget the trip to visit home soon. I still don't know how I'm going to visit/plan everyone so no one bitches about it afterwards. -sighs-
Well, my leg is still swollen and I should try to soak it or soemthing. And I'll be going back to work tomorrow, it should be better by then. :P
