"at the top of my lungs in my arms, she DIES, she dies"
I'm babysitting tonight and tomorrow, so I probably won't be online much, or at all. So here's my random little post for the weekend. ;)
First of all... I GOT THE JOB!!! I was hired for the job I applied/ interviewed for on Wednesday. I start Wednesday, with orientation, at 3:00. I'm sooo exciteed about this! Granted, it is at a fast food restaraunt, and it wasn't my first choice, but I'm sure as hell not complaining. :) Weee! *does celebration dance*
Something that pissed me off yesterday: My younger brother is home schooled, and he went to a 'track meet' at a park, with other kids that are home schooled. My little sister and her friend went, and I watched them while my dad 'helped' my brother. So after the thing was over we were getting ready to go, and all the homeschool parents were talking about where they'd meet up next. The 'head mom' or whatever, who was in charge of coordinating the events, was talking about how she had wanted everyone to go to some conference about homeschooling, but she thought it would be 'unsafe' for the children to go because there was some kind of gay pride meeting being held that day, too. All the other parents were agreeing with her, about how seeing something like that would 'scar the kids' or whatever. My dad, who supports gay marriage, or at least, doesn't 'mind' it, started arguing with the other people about it, as did I. I was so pissed off about what they were saying about gay people that I actually had to walk away. Some people need to be slapped in the face with reality, seriously. The whole thing makes me not only mad, but sad. It shouldn't be this way.
Well, on a slightly happier note, my D/G fic is all planned out. I know how I want pretty much each chapter to go. The only problem is actually writing it. For some reason, I want this one to be really good, so I keep going back and editing every little thing. I'm pretty happy with what I have so far, though. And after the D/G is done, I'll go back to my H/D fic and try to finish that one.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! I love you all!
