fall break
I'm going to try to make this a short entry (LOL...like that ever happens). There are some things I just want to get off my chest...as much as I can w/i a short entry anyways. So here was my Saturday and Sunday of break:
Sat: wake up at 6:30 am after less than three hours of sleep b/c of Jeff's snoring and having to pee five million times...he's right; I am getting old. We left at 815 and got back to Garner...where I did laundry most of the day. Had an argument on the way to Zaxby's, but of course everything was fine again by the time our meal was over. We were going to go to the Ken's, but Jeff wanted to watch the race w/ his dad since he doesn't get to hang out w/ him much. By that time I wasn't as thrilled about going to the maze so I said sure let's stay here. I looked over my notes for my two upcoming exams and did more laundry and folded clothes. When Laura (Sarah's friend) wanted to go to bed Jeff and I finished watching the dog show on the new computer that can access cable tv..which is just awesome.
Sun (today): woke up to finish drying Jeans, then got ready to go eat breakfast at Bojangles (which was much better than the free Chik-fil-a Jeff and I had for breakfast yesterday morning). Jeff and I got back, got ready and went to the cemetary after stopping to get flowers for mom, granny and papa's graves. While at the cemetary I wondered, as I do everytime I'm there, if anyone goes to visit the graves or not. I also got lost trying to find mom's grave..I always get lost but I at least remember the general area. Someday when I have enough money I am going to get flower holders for their graves..I hate just leaving the flowers at the edge of the graves. After that we went to the fair...and had yummy footlong chilli dogs. We battled the crowd a lot to get anywhere, and as much as I hate crowds it really, really sucked being there today (we heard that today there was record attendance at the fair). Jeff and I officially decided that we are going to the fair during the week next year if possible. We then went on to the mall so I could go to Dilliards to find a strapless bra to wear w/ my dress w/ my $20 gift card. I found out why strapless bra's haven't worked for me in the past, and I also was measured and found that I really have lost weight..but had to get a totally different sized bra than measured for. wtf? Grr...I hate shopping for clothes and bras and grr...it also sucks that I am pretty disproportionate (if that's even a word) and it's hard to find stuff that fits. Major, major grrage..but then we went to Barnes and Noble so I could get Starbucks! That makes everything better...coffee is great! We finally left for Boone around 5, then got back here around 8. On the way here I called my dad and step mom and found out that my dad was in the hospital for four days. Lovely how ppl let me know what goes on. I really do appreciate it. He had congestive heart failure again, and had to have fluid drained. He got back home last night. Mom last her license for OUI...again. She's lost it for six months..which means while I'm out there I'll be another chauffer (however you spell it). Dad is fine, just tired...and on new medicine thats supposed to help w/ the fluid build up. If he would just take care of himself...but that's another rant for another day. Everyone else is fine out there luckily. Then we had Jersey Mikes for supper (before the fuckers tried to close an hour early...we ran into the store b/c they were putting up chairs and we made them wait on us...haha). We came back here and ate, and I've been watching tv and studying since then...so that was my break. Which wasn't much of a break.
I knew this wasn't going to be a short entry.
Sorry for going on about the bra stuff...it just bothered me to realize how I've lost weight but yet I'm a bigger size than Ive ever been. I hate my boobs anyways. Rar.
I'm also really, really pissed that no one called me to let me know about dad. This has happened before, but I still want to be included. They told me they didnt call b/c they didn't want me to worry. The fact that they didn't let me know makes me worry more...what else happens out there that I don't know about? What other serious things go on that I don't know about b/c no one can pick up a freaking phone and call me to talk to me for five minutes to keep me in the loop? I'm going to call again next week or the week after to be sure everything is going okay..I really hate it that they don't call me. Why am I the only one communicating? Why?
Why don't people call me back or im me when I leave them messages? I'm really tired of trying to get ahold of people and not hearing anything back. I don't know how many people I've called the past week and no one has called me back..take that back...Khoi called me back. That was it. Out of six or seven people. GRRRR
Okay. Done ranting. Time to unpack before Adult Swim. I'll update again later...have a good week everyone!
