LOOOOONG ASS UPDATE
I feel like a stalker because I can read into all of your lives, but I don't write about mine, so here is an update.
School: I made it into the BFA program for drawing, so I am an official drawing major. I have advisement tomorrow for the next set of classes I should take for next semester. I'm doing alright, painting is harder than I remembered, and I rock the drawings every assignment, so I picked the right major.
Work: I don't make enough money, but I really like the majority of my co-workers. I'm not thrilled that my boyfriend's ex (IF we can call her that), works with us, or that she is about 30 lbs lighter than me and gorgeous, or that Daniel (the boyfriend) gets into fights with her at work because he must have liked her a lot to hate her this much...OR that my brother thinks she's hott...grrr, I dunno, too off the subject. I'm serving now, so more cash for my pocket, haven't had that "GREAT night of tips" yet, still low-balling it, so I'm ready for the dough to start rollin in.
Marital Status (not married, but in a relationship): Daniel is wonderful and a pain in the ass all at the same time. But it's exciting because he keeps me guessing. He's a good guy all around, total "guy's guy", drinks beer, will leave me for a football game in two seconds flat, and I am drawn to that because it's so new to me. I'm used to the whiny-mama's boy-listen to my crap- boyfriends. He's very tell it like it is. I know he means what he says because he is quite blunt, and has no problem being honest, even if it will make someone mad or hurt their feelings. He's the angry guy at work that everyone is afraid of, but he never EVER yells at me. One of the benefits of dating the angry cook, you never get their Wrath. He makes me laugh more than any guy I have ever been with, and the lovin department is rockin. I love the fact that he calls me his "girl" and not his girlfriend. That he's so goofy, reminds me of Mandy actually (only in the fact that they both try to stick their fingers up my nose when I'm watching tv, why? I have no fuckin clue), and that if we sleep in the same bed, he always grabs for me, pulls me close, and spoons me the ENTIRE night (totally out of his guy's guy character). And don't get me started on his voice. Total Matthew McConaughey, deep as hell with the sexy southern drawl. And, on top of all that, he's cute!! I also think he might be coming home with me for thanksgiving. Cross your fingers!!
Roommates: My brother and I have never gotten along as well as we have lately with living with each other. Totally floors me everytime I think about it. He still bugs me, and needs to be WAY more self-sufficient than he is, but he's getting better. As for Julie, somebody hand me a gun. She just had her 21st birthday, and INSISTED that we get her two kegs (not cheap for college kids who live on easy mac and ramen). She wanted us to toast her on the midnight of her birthday, and her ex-boyfriend snuck into our apartment (I left him the key, hoping drama would ensue, no such luck) so he could decorate our apartment for her birthday. We had about 45-50 people at our apartment including Julie's current boyfriend and her ex. I'm just WAITING for THAT to explode in her face!! She's been buggin the SHIT out of me. She always has money, great food, pot, and money to go to sushi once a week, and Nick and I are pinchin and scrimpin. SHE ONLY WORKS ONCE A WEEK!!!! Her parents must give her waaaay more money than she lets on. She's dirty, her boyfriend practically LIVES here, she loves to throw all the cheesy boyfriend crap her boyfriend does for her, like buying her flowers, taking her out to dinner, making her breakfast in bed, in my face all because she knows that Daniel and I don't have that romance novel kind of relationship. We're both broke, so we never go out, and he's too "manly" to give me flowers for no reason. We have yet to see a birthday together, or christmas or valentine's day, so I'll be interested to see how he handles the whole gift-giving thing. But something bad is going to happen to Julie, and I may be the cause of it. Nothing horrible, but something small enough to ruin her day.
I think that's it though. Mandy, Gracie and my mama should be coming up midweek to visit and have a girly spend the night, hopefully Mandy will meet Daniel after hearing me drone on and on about him. Gatta have the big sister approval or he's no good. So far have the parents approval, and the brother. Mandy just has to seal the deal.
