Today is Tuesday.
I've been home a little over a week now. I have worked at Subway a week and I already wish I wasn't. I hate customers. While I know there are evil customers at every job, it is more that I know these customers and they know me. That is too much intamacy for $8 a an hour. I almost wish I had tried to find another job this summer. Not that it's too late, but I'm already working there and it would be shitty of me to leave.
In more exciting news, my brother Joe is now engaged to his girlfriend, now finacee I suppose. It's not really suprising but it seemed sooner than I thought. It's also weird that he is the first one getting married since he is the least likely candidate tradionally. My grandmother is going to be very happy. He also brought me back a pretty bracelet from Mexico and a turtle keychain.
To celebrate the engagement and my parent's 30 something anniversary (I really do lose track) they want Brandon and I, them, and the newly engaged to go out to dinner friday. That should be fun.
I really hope that someday they treat me with the same kind of respect that Joe gets, though I doubt it. I don't think it has actually been imbedded in their minds that I'm 20. They were married when they were about 21 or so and yet they act like I'm just dating Brandon to pass the time or something. Just last year my mom asked me at dinner if Brandon and I were exclusive. I of course got incredibly pissed off and told her I thought that it was an extremely rude question. My dad who was also at the table said he didn't think it was an agreed with my mom that it was a reasonable question. They thought, apparently, that every time a guy picked me up from the house that wasn't Brandon, was a date of some sort. Of course, Brandon and I have been dating for 3 fucking years. I'm obviously still a child though and shouldn't be taken seriously in anything I do.
I didn't really mean to put that in this post but I guess that is what was on my mind.
Also during the week I went to a party at Ben's and got drunk for the first time since my junior year of highschool. There was no rum and I was sad as I don't like beer. So I drank vodka (thanks Anna!) and mountain dew. It was a pretty good time. Getting up in the morning sucked though, I wasn't hungover but I had only had 3 hours of sleep. Why did I get up so early? My mom and I went to a town wide garage sale in Hamil. I got some cool placemats, a bracelet, and some other assorted things. At one particular sale, I got an N64 game, 4 NES games, and a really hideous cardboard cutout of Paris Hilton from Simple Life all for a grand total of $10. I do not have these game systems but Brandon does. The cardboard cutout is for the apartment to go along with my Subway Jared cutout and Luke's wrestler of some sort cut-out. I guess Jared and the wrestler can find it out over their cardboard skank. I will most likely give her to Luke when the lease is up. I did buy myself some games at the Flea Market though. I got Justice League Task Force which is like Street Fighter but with Superheros. Then I got the 2nd Donkey Kong. They also had the 3rd which is somewhat rare but I didn't have enough money for it.
Yesterday Brandon and I hung out with his friends Sid and Amber. We got lunch at Hettie's where Ben served us then went to some head shop in Collinsville or somewhere in that area, maybe it was Edwardsville. We then played mini golf which was fun but Brandon was getting on my nerves which I expected to happen because we can't play anything competitive together. He takes the game very seriously and I don't care at all about my score. They were high though which makes him not care as much about the game. We also got custard at Gator's which was pretty delicious. I got a butterscoth concrete.
I think that's all I really have to say since this is kind of long anyways.
Love & Sunshine,
Ginny
