The past few days have been hectic with going through clothes, shopping, being carless, momentarily phoneless, dealing with finances, pooper problems, and major separation anxiety. Now, I am not writing a pity-party entry, so if you think this is what this is, THINK AGAIN! It's more of a random thought splooging entry. My mom and I went through closets of clothes today, and I saw some shirts that I haven't seen since middle school. I also saw some items that I am ashamed to have ever worn. Regardless, we did some major cleaning-out, and I still have yet to figure out what I actually want to take with me to college. Oh well, we are making progress, right? Heheh.
As for the shopping, it's not the good kind. Well, it is and it isn't. I, along with every other sane human being, like getting new stuff. It makes me happy. However, going shopping for college can be uber stressful. Right now I am scrambling around trying to get everything I need in time. I still have yet to hit up the container store, and I still need to get new pajama bottoms and a webcam. I might take care of the webcam issue today, IF my mom lets me take her car out, which leads me into my next topic.
I DON'T HAVE A CARRR! Well, not for the moment anyway. In a way, it's a good thing, because it is getting fixed. Earlier this year, some ASSHOLE was tailing me in my school's parking garage, and actually BUMPED ME, so I had to turn into my spot really fast. Unfortunately, my assigned spot was in between two ginormous SUV's, so as I turned in, the side of my BEAUTIFUL CAR grazed the bumper of one of the beasts. Needless to say, the whole passenger side of my car was brutally dented. This week I am finally getting the doors replaced, and I honestly never knew how much I need my car until this week. It has been tough. Primarily since my mom hates other people driving her car, including me. Good news however, is that the new doors have been put on and painted, the only thing left is the pinstripes and stuff. That said, it is predicted that my car will be coming home with me all fixed up tomorrow. *does happy dance*
As for phones, last night was a NIGHTMARE. Whoever says the world doesn't need cellphones is seriously on some hardcore drugs. I have Cingular service, and last night I don't know what happened, but for about 6 hours I couldn't dial, recieve, or even connect calls. Not even text message. I don't know if it was just the Dallas area that experienced this problem or what, but it was crazy. I honestly felt disconnected from the world. A bunch of my friends attempted and somehow retardedly managed to make plans sans cell phones, but it wasn't the most convenient experience of my life. Bleh, oh well...I suppose I sound like a spoiled bitca addicted to her cellphone now but what can I say, technology pwns me.
I got a new laptop! YAYAYAYAYAY! It's a shiny new 17" Dell and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. However, within the first day of owning it, it got infested with fucking spyware and adware, so I am not a happy girl. Hopefully the Dell people can fix it and send it back. Let's just say the first thing I install this time will be antivirus programs. Haha.
Now here comes the sad stuff. For the past 2 1/2 years (roughly), I have developed an online friendship with sidewalk_doctor , and it's really become the stuff of legends. Haha. I know the whole online-based relationships thing is often made fun of and all, but it's not like I go to e-Harmony.com or that this person is really a 60 year old perv. I have talked to her on the phone, seen pictures, and etc. What I am trying to get to is that I now consider Cat one of my closest friends in a way. Unfortunately, her family is crazy, as many of you who also read her LJ know. They drug her off to Hawaii, and in this process they are rendering her internetless for the next two weeks. Usually Cat and I talk daily, and I feel so out of whack not being able to chat with her. Yeah, I am dramatic, but I love the girl to death, what can I say. Anywhoo, that is my random thought sploogosity of the day, tune in later on for Tom icons! Hope all is well with everyone!
