IT'S ABOUT MY GRANDMA, THE MOST AMAZING WOMAN IN THE WORLD.

i cried myself to sleep for the second night in a row. just like we were all saying, the days are relatively easy because you keep busy. however, nights are a bitch because you just lie there thinking. i tried for hours to fall asleep. and when i couldn't, i got out all of the cards i've saved over the years. birthday cards, christmas cards, ( Read more... )

this goes out to ralph. he has got to be just about the most amazing person i know. right now i needed to talk to someone so much, and he actually listened to what i was saying. he didn't dismiss any of it. instead, he embraced my words and found just the right things to say in return. i am truly, truly greatful for his compassion. he is one in a ( Read more... )

i look so cute right now, hahha. too bad i looked like shit at work. i lost track of time this afternoon, and didn't leave the house until 3:56pm. i was supposed to work at four. i basically got dressed at red lights on the way there. i'm such a dork. hmm, mike's my favorite manager. i hope hope hope he doesn't get transferred. after close, anthony ( Read more... )

oh, how i love my chelsea! i went for a run, took a shower, and fixed a delicious peanut-butter & jelly sandwich before driving over to the barth residence. chelsea, ralph, jules, and i then suited up and jumped in the pool. it felt like forever since i'd gone for a swim, and i absolutely loved it. we floated around with inner tubes for a while ( Read more... )

;alksdfj. so damn tired. must go to bed. didn't even leave panera until 11:30pm tonight. my mom actually called the store to make sure i was still there. she always thinks some downtown weirdo is going to kidnap me when i leave. walked out to my car to find a french baguette on my windshield. i have the strangest coworkers. stormed back inside to ( Read more... )

what a small world. i took both anthony and mike wren home from work tonight. turns out mike lives on the exact same street as chelsea. they have mutual friends, too. it's so weird to realize things like this. i've been going to chelsea's house all my life, and i may have actually seen mike at some point. however, i never knew him until now. it's ( Read more... )

summer fun at nina's house this afternoon. we grilled hot dogs by the pool and enjoyed fruity popsicles afterward. then a rushed drive home to finish washing clothes and get my ass to work. i was late, but not noticably late. mike gave me a free dinner. then i accompanied dan while he smoked a cigarette outside. we chatted, and it was cool. angie ( Read more... )

OH HELL YES! I GOT A 1420 ON MY SAT'S.
all i wanted was to break 1400, and i fucking did it.
i've been waiting to get back in town to check my scores.
WHAT A PLEASANT SURPRISE!

it makes me happy when my friends (i.e. mary and nina) visit me. maybe sometime we can actually chill outside of a panera setting. i spent my morning on the couch watching the newlyweds marathon. my dog peed in the backseat of my car. that was the first and last time he'll ever be allowed in there. i leave for naples tomorrow afternoon. i'm excited ( Read more... )
