Today was a GLORIOUS DAY! Yesterday was my first day off in about 3 weeks. Seriously, I thought I was going to go insane. I did some father's day shopping with my sister, ran errands, take a nap and then did homework with Drew. (<---yesterday) We went out to dinner at Napoli's Friday night and then had a spectacular evening with friends, got home at 1:30 or so, and didn't go to bed 'til about 3 am haha. So that was sort of off track since I said TODAY was a glorious day.
I woke up fairly early and then went back to bed til about 12:15 (don't judge me, I deserve a sleep in day). Drew and I decided to spend a lovely day shopping and then going to dinner. We went to Salina and kinda got turned around a little bit but it wasn't long before we found our way! ;) We went to Hobby Lobby first... I could have bought so much stuff in there! But we just got a cute little sign to hang in the kitchen that says "I kiss better than I cook". Apparently, Drew thinks that describes me perfectly. *rolls eyes* I don't think either of us were in much of a shopping mood but we got a few things at the mall. We both got some things at Old Navy... I totally forgot there was an ON there! And Drew got a polo at RUE and I got a bra at Victoria's Secret. Semi Annual Sale, baby! hehe
My favorite part of the day was probably going to dinner. We ate at Red Lobster... oh my lanta. It was sooooo delicious. Seafood is my favorite food so I was in heaven! We ate sooo much. We got lobster nachos, cheesy biscuits (of course!), and he got the ultimate something (I forget haha... that had lobster tail, crab legs, shrimp something) and I got some shrimp skewer thing. Not to mention our meals came with salads and a side. Definitely didn't get to those though, haha.
We were going to go roller skating but the weather was looking pretty iffy so we just decided to trek home. So now we're at home, watching Man vs. Wild, just chilling. I totally need a fun but relaxing weekend and tomorrow I will probably just lay around and MAYBE do some laundry and probably do some homework! Well, I'm getting pretty tired so I think I'm going to lay down with my babe! =)

Crazy little woman
Long time no see. Perfect time for some late night blogging, I suppose! haha.. ummm so this weekend I didn't really do any homework so I'm slightly behind BUT I will do a bunch tomorrow. I can't believe classes have already started. But they will be over before we know it... July 30th is the last day for classes but I should finish before that. So I was thinking I'd like this philosophy class but so far it is STUPID. I hate to say that, because I loved Bioethics and I generally like things like that but OMG it's so boring and the reading is fairly difficult because it is SO boring. Our teacher said that we may have to read chapters more than once to understand them and I'm thinking... hell to the no, I will not!
I was looking at stuff for the Water Issues field trip I'm going on actually in a week and I thought we were going to Cedar Bluff or something... nope. Going to the water treatment plant here in Hays. I was looking at pictures... let's just say GROSS. hahaha I'm not weak stomached but that shit smells nasty too (no pun intended lol). But hey, it shouldn't be TOO terrible.
And really one last thing that has been on my mind lately. I can't figure out if something is wrong with me. I feel like an old person because all I really do is work, do homework, clean, do laundry etc. and I usually have no energy to do anything besides that. I guess sometimes we do fun stuff, but not that much. And I fee like I have lost connection with a lot of my friends. I love all my friends to death but there are a select few that drive me NUTS. Okay, I know in high school people can be pretty wild/hyper/loud/stupid whatever but I'm not that way really at all anymore. Yeah I can be goofy but I'm not as immature as I was in high school. I suppose I just feel like I can't stand being around some people because they act like they are still in high school and/or need to grow the fuck up!! There is a time and a place for retardedness I understand... but ALL THE DAMN TIME is just a little ridiculous. I sound like a bitchy old lady, lol... But I've always had a short temper and I get easily annoyed. So, when I feel like someone is being really immature for their age it just drives me crazy!
And I think it's funny when people get mad at me because I don't go out or hang out with them... but I pretty much NEVER get a phone call or a text. If you really wanna hang out with me don't write on my fucking facebook wall because I don't even get on it everyday. Not only that, but my friends hang out with my sister more than me. Not that I care that they hang out with her but some of those people... are not the best influences on my little sister. And honestly when it comes down to it, I'll pick my sister over anyone ANY DAY.
Well, I get the eff off my soap box. That is enough venting for one time haha. I'll keep you updated!

pretty girl swag
It is... already June 1st! That just seems crazy to me! I feel like last summer was just yesterday. Sheesh. I have been super busy with work and various other tasks, so for that I am grateful. Yesterday I finally had a day off however... after 13 straight days of workin! hehe, but I love it and I need hours so I can't say much.
I had an amazing memorial day weekend and a SPLENDID day off with my man yesterday. I don't know if it could have been any more perfect!
So classes start in 6 days and I'm pretty excited. I don't know if that's just kinda creepy that I'm excited for SCHOOL but it will be two more classes to get out of the way. I hope they aren't super hard and time consuming like the last online class I took but it was a really hard web programming class sooooo these two gen. eds. shouldn't take too much of my soul, lol. The last day of classes is the day before we leave to go to Grand Lakes, Colorado for four days! Err, 3.5... whoo hoo!
So nothing crazy crazy around here. Some funny stuff happened at work but I feel it might be slightly inappropriate to put on here, haha. I got my last book in the mail today for classes now all I need to do is go get the discs from the bookstore. Can't do that until I get paid on Friday though because I'm literally broke. Uggh... and our ZVP was supposed to change my pay rate over a month ago and still hasn't... so let's just say work owes me a good chunk of money and I'm crossing my fingers that on Friday it will be fixed AND I will have my moolah by then! 'Cause I am in dire need.
Being broke pretty much sucks but I have it better than at least 80% of the world's population so how much can I really complain?
And I don't know why this just reminded me of this... but that damn oil spill. It literally is making me sick thinking about what damage it is causing and has already caused. I was looking at pictures from the oil spill the other day and I was teary-eyed. Those poor animals and ecosystems that have been killed and destroyed. It really is such a shame. I hope the U.S. can get their shit together and get this mess cleaned up STAT.
Well I better hop off my soap box and finish getting ready for work. See ya soon, friends!
