3 Days Until Christmas

Well, I suppose you can say 4. It’s only just begun to be the 22nd, I will let this day play out before dismissing it.

I haven’t written lately because, well, frankly, I feel uninspired. Anything I have wanted to write was less than inspiring, at least. I haven’t felt great about myself lately. I thought it time for an update, though.

I have waited too long to attend CSM this semester…once again(I think), and I have yet to find a job(haven’t really been looking). –I take that back, I have a part time job, I babysit several times a week. And I’m cheap. =) — I don’t really need much money right now though, so no real worries there, I suppose. I just need to start making some decisions…quickly.  A new year resolution maybe? Make up my damn mind on what I want in this life, and figure out what steps I need to take…and take them!?

Anyway, I’m trying not to stress about all that right now. Matthew says we will figure it out, and it will be okay, stop worrying. It is “the holidays”, after all (Time for stressing about the holidays! HA).

Really though, I am honestly trying to enjoy time with Matthew, and my family and friends who are off work/out of school and home for Christmas. I finally finished all of my shopping today. (If it weren’t for the fact that two people currently owe me money, I would pretty much be broke, but that’s okay) I am actually looking forward to the festivities and family time and everything “good” about the season.

We got some snow the past couple of days, and by that I mean more in this area than we had gotten since 1996–totally worth it in my opinion, even if my car is lost til spring. Maybe the snow will really last until the 25th-I certainly wouldn’t mind a white Christmas. The roads aren’t too terrible anymore, so only the good parts should remain.

Tomorrow we will be braving the cold again for “Coconut Cake Day”, in the 7th District. Do not even ask. That is the man’s family. =) I could not explain the tradition if I tried. So I have to cut this entry short(not really short though, just abridged?) now to shower and sleep, as we will be getting up at 7 or so in the AM.

Is it healthy though, to brave the (admittedly still icy)roads, 3 days before Christmas, for a 45 minute trip to the middle of nowhere to crack coconuts at 8 in the morning? =P

Like I said, showering then sleep…very soon.

Holy Crap

Yeah, as far as the sick thing goes, I think I might be dying. Ughhh. My voice is gone. And my throat feels like hell. Brody, Kayleigh and I just watched Charlie Bartlett again. Lovin’ it. Need to go to sleep. I think I will cough all night again though. =( Good night.

Well, about time for a first entry

My sister is making me even more aware of social networking than before. No Twitter yet, but I certainly seem to have a lot of blogs and “networking” sites these days. Like Facebook isn’t time consuming enough as it is. =] My tumblr will be posted on this blog as well, and until it drives my friends crazy, it is linked with the tumblr application on Facebook as well.

Anyway, I’m sick today, although I think I’ve been ignoring my sinuses the past week or so and now this is what I get; it hits me nice and hard this morning. Conjestion, headache, sore everywhere, and I even thought I had pinkeye when I first woke up. Now I am watching Shrek. It is making me feel slightly better, although it makes it harder to write when I continuously feel the need to type what I am hearing in a movie I’ve seen a million times.

So as of late, I’ve moved on from my job at Hallmark, run away to Pennsylvania for a week, come back, had a job interview (a late response from sending in my resume to a company about a month ago), and made some serious advances towards getting my license–I even filled out that stupid hours log last night–looks like I will be legally driving on my own before the age of 18. About time if you ask me. I will hopefully be taking the test in the next week, since that is the final step. If dad were awake and I weren’t sick I may be doing it right now. Anyway, pray for me that either this job works out–which would be pretty cool– or that I figure out something else really soon… and I don’t bomb the driving test too badly. I worry I will get nervous.

You can also pray that I make a decision on taking some CSM classes in the Spring…I know I’ve been on again off again about this, but I think it is a good idea that I try to get as many credits as I can right now. I know I at least want to get my associates soon, and I will be in MD at least until the end of summer. That is what, ten months? I could definitely take on the spring semester, and then maybe a minisession over the summer… that is getting a lot out of the way, as long as I can balance work and class.

I won’t jump too much into the future right now, though. I will get into “after next summer” a little later.  This is long enough for a first entry as it is. That must be a good thing though. Work, illness, driving, school..Shrek, tumblr… I’m glad I can still write it all down, even if it is messy.
