ok... so i'm behind. as usual. lets see...

saturday mom dad and i ate at quizno's and got gas in salem (and mom paid for all of that cuz i'm a sad broke little girl), then we got to malone. we brought in all my stuff (minus a big box of movies which is still MIA, a few days later, ahhhhh). the boy scouts were there helping carry stuff in, lol. mom and i got in some weird fight (she took something i said jokingly completely the wrong way and stormed out of my room). so that was a great way to start off my second year here at malone.
chrissy and i went over to the bookstore and bought books, mine were $315, and i borrowed like 5 books from chrissy. don't want to think about what it would have been if i hadn't borrowed books from her... wow. i get to return one of them thats worth like 12.50, lol. i'm gonna be RICH!
i unpacked some, and lets see... what else happened on saturday? ohh! i know! cassie came out, so i walked all over campus visiting people, then went to a movie with her, est, molly, lindsay, and shelli. we saw dodgeball, and laughed a lot, lol. i don't think anything happened after that. i think i just came back here and hung out.

sunday i slept in till 10:30 or so. that was nice. :) then i unpacked more, then ate lunch. hmmm... then what? oh i know. i went to wal-mart with my roommate, her friend jacob, and his roommate josh. that was a good time. :) we went to walmart, furniture max (haha) and old navy. then after we got back, janson came over after awhile.
we went visiting on campus, and were in every dorm except PGB and haviland, lol. we ended up in kasey and jared's room for like an hour, which was hilarious. i had to pee while i was there, so i made jared go in and lock the door that led to reno and jason's room, and then after i got done, they wouldn't let me out. they'd locked the door from the outside and i was locked in. heat[h]er came over for awhile, and then janson and i went over to her dorm for a bit later. joe was trying to a shelf together, and janson tried to help him, and heat[h]er and i just laughed at them.


more later :)

yes friends, he's going to kill his favorite actor. with a mirror. i love these things. :)

well i'm a bit behind i guess...

work on monday was fun, as i started to say. rayford makes me laugh a lot. even when he pushes me down and i fall on my butt. i named the air freshener in my car after him. its a naked tiki man that smells like coconut, and is now named rayford. lol.
i don't remember much else. we trained kevin. he's cool, but i feel like i have a shadow when i work with him. oh i fell down when i was talking to him. i was back doing dishes, and i was trying to hurry, and slipped in the water on the floor and fell, on my butt. i've never fallen at work before, and then i fell twice in one night... lol

i already posted about picking up my parents from the station that night.


tuesday i slept from 6-11am, then i got up cuz mom came home on her lunch break and we took my car down to 344 tire, then i stayed up for little while. i ended up going back to bed from like 1:30-3:30pm cuz i was still freaking tired.
we picked up my car that night on my way to work (mom dropped me off), its so nice to have a fully working car again. the brakes actually WORK, its so weird!! lol
then i worked 8-close. ashley makes me laugh. it was an ok night.

yesterday i started packing. well i finished reading my book first (reunion). it was so sad.... i bawled my way through it. but it was really good. then i talked to some people online, almost bought tickets to a bleach concert, but forced myself not to (its on saturday and theres basically no way that i can make it work, *sniff*) and THEN i started packing. around 6, the phone rang. caller id said mcdonalds, so i almost didn't answer, lol. but i did, and it was sean. he'd talked rayford into staying till close so that i didn't have to come in at all (woohoo!!!!) so i talked to him for a bit, then i drove tim up to canfield. we listened to brian regan on the way. :) then i went back to packing when i got home. i really didn't get much done, lol. but i have a couple boxes. (2 of them were still packed from may, lol, but that doesn't matter...)
my suite had a chatroom going last night. well 4 of us did. it was hilarious. this year is gonna be so funny. :) ski masks. thats all i have to say... :)
OH!! and my wonderful roommate told me our phone number, once again, since i didn't write it down last time. as of saturday, my phone number will be: 330-588-7564. use it!! :)

today i got up around 10:30, and i started laundry. as soon as thats done (which might be awhile, cuz i'm doing everyone's laundry) i'm gonna pack my clothes. and i work 4-close tonight. thats about it.

there. i sorta fixed it... :)

oh, so work last night? one of those random nights when it was actually kinda fun. i love nights like that. i worked 4-close, and rayford (aka ray yeager) was there 4-9, and he and i trained his friend josh for like an hour or so (cuz robert got tired of doing it, of course). i went over to the bookstore on my break to take back some books to joyce that i'd borrowed from her, and she lent me

moms home, gotta pick up my car from jeff!! more later...

i'm tiiiiired. mom and dad's train ended up not getting there until about 5 am, so i sat at the station, freeeeezing waiting for them. i just sat in the little thingy with a sweatshirt and blanket that i found in moms car, reading reunion (by karen kingsbury and gary smalley, and its amazing so far!!!), and waiting. so by the time we got back here and i got in bed, it was like 10 after 6. then i had to get up around 11:25 or so cuz mom was home on her lunch break and we took my car down to 344 tire. i'm contemplating going back to bed, i haven't decided yet. i've lived on 5 hours of sleep before, but i don't think i could handle mcdonalds when i'm this tired. i might go back up for like 2 more hours.


kurt blackburn always signs on and then signs off right away, and it makes me sad, cuz i never have time to IM him before he gets off. i haven't talked to him forever. kurt, if you read this, you are a slacker and you should stop getting off right away, and you should talk to me!!!


i'm out.

scratch that. on my way out the door, i found a note from my little brother informing me that the train is delayed. 2 hours and 15 minutes delayed. at the moment, its supposed to come in at 4:30 am. well that sucks...




F!!!

yesterday i got up, got dressed, and tim and i headed to church. we joked around that it was the first time we'd been on time in a long time (for some reason, my mom never leaves the house until like 9:20 or later, and its a 10 minute drive, lol). church was good, as usual. it was my last sunday there for awhile, tho, which is sad. i need to remember to give mom my dorm number to give to stacy so she can call me when fun stuff is going on with my sunday school class, cuz i heart them.
after church tim and i came home, and ate lunch. our lunch was amazing, let me tell you. we had leftover chicken alfredo that i'd made the night before, i made some ramen noodles, tim had a boiled egg, we both had grapes, and we had strawberry pies that i'd brought home from work the night before. it was so funny, i wanted to take a picture of our meal, lol. the other thing i wanted to take a picture of was the sink and the counter by the sink. we had like 5 or 6 containers and such of various sizes just sitting in the sink 'soaking', cuz we didn't feel like washing them, so we just put water in them so things wouldn't get hard and nasty on them. lol.
i was supposed to work 2-close then, but i ended up leaving at 7. i got there, and was like "i'm so tired of this place..." so i asked aja if i could do what we call (excuse the language) 'bitch work' so i wouldn't have to make any food. i washed the walls in the grill, changed all the liners in the store and outside, took a broom and dustpan out in the parking lot and swept up trash, washed all the vat covers (and they were freaking nasty, too), and cleaned out all the fakey wooden trashcans, inside and out. while i was cleaning the trashcans, a man came up to me and told me that we had the cleanest mcdonalds he had ever seen. he said he'd been in some gross ones that he wouldn't go back to, but he liked coming to ours cuz it was always clean. i was like "wow.. thanks!" as i was sitting on the floor with a bucket of water, cleaning out the insides of trashcans. lol. it was great. then aja sent me home a little after 7, since i was in overtime and they didn't want to pay me for it, lol. but i still got over 4 and a half hours of overtime, first. :)
i grabbed 2 milkshakes, then went over to video safari (movie gallery, whatever) and rented 'league of extraordinary gentleman' cuz tim hadn't seen it yet. so i came home, showered, then tim and i watched it. then i just kinda hung out i think, i don't really remember. i talked to heidi online for a bit. and travis. and maybe someone else? i don't know. lol (well janson, but thats kinda given). oh i remember!!! i talked to both jessie and heather yesterday! yay! i miss them both.


today i got up around 11:15. that is so freaking late, lol. well i got up twice before that, though. craig mercer called at 10:20 to talk to dad, and he said he'd call back tomorrow. and then i slept again. then around 10:45, joyce called, cuz she had the fifth book in a series i've been borrowing from her (the redemption series by karen kingsbury and gary smalley.. they're amazingly good!!). then i went back to sleep again.
after i got up i just hung out, then i called jeff (my mechanic) to talk about bringing my car down to him. we ended up talking for like half an hour, which was cool. i need to remember to take my car down there tomorrow during moms lunch break...
then tim and i went to salem. we went to marcs and walmart, where i bought random stuff, like for school and my dorm, some milk, some bread, and a pair of shoes at walmart, and stuff like that. it was fun, tim makes me laugh.
when we got back here, i called ali (cuz she'd called me) and then i did stuff that i was supposed to do all week long, like clean and such. then i dropped movies off at video safari, and worked a 4-close. i'll talk about work alter, i should probly get going to pick up my parents at the alliance amtrak station! bye all!

i stole this from reno.

yesterday tiff called me around 11:30. i was still in bed, lol, but i had moms phone in my room, so i answered it. she said that some band kids were eating lunch at pizza hut around 12:30 if i wanted to come. so after tim got home from band camp, we headed out to pizza hut. tiff neglected to tell me that rodik was gonna be there, lol, but i survived. josh canfield was there, which was awesome. he used to write the drills for us, he wrote the riverdance drill, which was the most awesome show all through high school. so it was cool to talk to him again.
tim and i gave farrah a ride home, and then came back here and watched chasing liberty. i had to leave before it was over to get to work.

work sucked. a lot. robert had poison ivy and couldn't deal with food at all, shannon was done at 8, and ray was done at 9. so that left me alone for the rest of the night. we got behind, cuz i don't know how to close grill, i only close dishes. and robert was more interested in standing around talking for 2 hours than helping me. needless to say, last night's close sucked. oh and i looked at my schedule while i was on break, cuz they'd put me on the schedule for next saturday, and i told them i couldn't work cuz i was moving back to malone that day. not only am i still on the schedule, now i'm training someone. so it looks like i won't really be back at malone till next sunday, which is really sad. i'm gonna move all my stuff over saturday morning, and then just come home and go back on sunday.
so i was thinking, "ok, i'm going home from work now, this crummy night is over." oh no, not in the least. it rained the whole time i was at work, which i was excited about, cuz my car got semi-clean. but i wasn't so happy when i started driving. i turned my car on, and put it in reverse and backed out of my parking spot, and i hear water swishing around INSIDE my car, and then water proceeds to pour out onto my feet and the passenger side. i was like "WTF???" but i decided to just drive home and worry about it later, cuz i need to call jeff on monday anyway to get my oil changed and my brakes fixed.
ok so bad night over? no not quite. its pretty dark at like 12:15 at night, right? right. so i'm driving home on rt. 14 at the same speed i usually go, like 60 or 65. and the next thing i know, i'm no longer in control of my car, and its careening towards the car thats driving on the other side of the road. i hit a huge patch of water that i couldn't see cuz of the dark, and then i hydroplaned and almost died. good times. so i slowed down to about 45, and i hydroplaned again later. so i slowed down to like 30, and i hydroplaned, once again, later on. so needless to say, i was REALLY not in the best of moods when i got home.
so i get home, and tim had left a note for me that the chimney above the fishtank is leaking (yes, we have a fishtank in our chimney... i know... lol), in two different places, and that i needed to check the buckets before i went to bed. the one was leaking this nasty black color, and the other one was leaking a disgusting pee color. and i was like "oh this is nice..."
so i thought "ok. i'm just gonna get on the computer and talk to some people, i'll be ok." NO!! mom has norton set to run a computer scan every friday night. well, last night it found not one, not 2, not 3... but 8 at-risk files in this computer. 8. oh how i love viruses. so i clicked the delete button, and only 6 of them deleted. 2 of them refused to be deleted. this whole time, people are IMing me, and i can hear the noise, but i can't see what they're saying or type back to them. so i gave up and took a shower. it took me freaking forever to get everything off this computer. i ended up having to use a system restore back to before i deleted stuff, then taking out this program that my mom had downloaded (down with smiley central!!!), cuz it was made by MyWebSearch, which is definitely adware. blah. so i got rid of all that, and then searched the computer to find that 3 of the files hadn't actually been deleted. so i got rid of those. then i did a virus scan, and it found 3 more files that i needed to delete.

oh life was so wonderful last night.... lol

today i got up at 12:10, cuz i didn't go to bed till about 5 am. i set my alarm for 10:45, called jenny and told her i wasn't going to the thrift store, and then i went back to bed.
today i've been productive, sorta. i finished watching chasing liberty, which i really liked. then i called heidi, and she wasn't home, but beth had her call me back. so i talked to her for a bit. then i did the dishes, cuz mom and dad have been gone since wednesday and this is the first time they've been washed... lol. then i started cleaning the living room, since its on my list of things to do before mom gets home. i started dinner, but its not gonna be done in time for me to eat it before i have to go to work AT 3, EVEN THO MY AVAILABILITY IS 4-CLOSE!!! ohhhh how i hate that place... i just have to keep saying to myself 'overtime...overtime....overtime.....' and reminding myself that by the end of next week, i'll have about 12 hours of overtime.

so now i need to go change my clothes for work, wait for the buzzer on the stove to go off, take the chicken alfredo out of the oven, leave a note for tim if he isn't home yet, take the movies back to the library that are currently 3 DAYS OVERDUE, and then head to work, for the next 9 hours of my life. well that sucks... lol

i'm out.

well, i was gonna post tonight. then i had a horrible night, and then i had to save this computer from certain death (aka a virus), and then i talked to janson on the phone for almost 3 hours so i could feel better about my horrible night, and getting some stuff worked out, and now i'm pooped. i'm going to bed. i'll post tomorrow instead. i don't think i'm gonna go to VDO with jenny in the morning, cuz i'll be tired, and there's a lot of stuff around here that needs done.

night.

so, despite what everyone said, i liked the village. it might not have been the thriller that previews on tv made it out to be, but there were definitely a few parts that scared the crap out of me in there. and the twist in it was awesome. i think there were sorta 2 twists. tim and i were talking about that on the way back.
altogether, we were gone for like 5 hours. we went to the bank and to marcs before hand (i had to drop off film), then to the movie, then on the way back we went to taco bell, stopped and got ice cream (and ended a very sad chapter of my life... *sniff*), waved at george, got gas, and went to walmart.
we hadn't been gone very long when someone knocked on the front door. i opened it, and it was maryea, with faith. i hadn't seen them since my graduation party. oh my goodness, faith is so big!! she's a year and 5 months old, and its crazy how big she is!! she saw my car in the driveway, and stopped to say hi. she was on her way up to valerie's (i just typed stark, but i guess her last name is mangus now, huh?) house, so i went with her. it was so weird to be hanging out with a married valerie with a son, and maryea with her daughter. and plus, maryea said that they were inducing labor on april tonight, so hopefully all went well in the birth of david. :)
i hung out there for an hour or so, then i walked back here and called jenny. she came over, tim made the peach cobbler out of a box that mom left for us, and then we went to video safari (or rather, movie gallery) in columbiana and got 13 going on 30 (really good), intolerable cruelty (really strange), and chasing liberty. we watched the first 2 tonight. i'm gonna watch chasing liberty tomorrow probly. or sometime.
i also took out janson's blanket. i didn't like it. i'm starting it over again. (oh come on, y'all knew i was gonna do it eventually, i do it every time i make something!!!)
jenny and i are going to VDO in austintown on saturday. yay!!


my day off was good! too bad tomorrow i have to go back to work... :( i really need to start packing for school sometime, too.

tim and i are officially home alone until 2:15 am tuesday morning (aka monday night) when i go pick up mom and dad at the amtrak station in alliance (which i ever so conviently know how to get to cuz of sarah). lets party... oh wait, i work every night except for one, that being tomorrow.

work kinda sucked tonight. we got out at an ok time, but everyone was at each others throats. i even semi flipped out on brittany merriman, although i apologized a few mintues afterwards cuz i felt pretty bad about it. i gave sean a ride home afterwards. that boy is polite. he says 'pardon' and when he swears in front of me, he apologizes and says he shouldn't cuss in front of a lady (i don't consider myself a lady, but he's still a gentleman).

so i've had a lot of people tell me not to waste my time on the village. but i know tim really wants to see it, and i do too. i tend to like movies that other people don't like. so we'll see. the offer still stands that tim and i will be at carnation mall in alliance to see the 1:20 pm showing of the village if anyone feels inclined to join us.

i had something else to say, but i completely forget what it was. so i guess thats all for me for now.

so mom and i are sitting down, watching love actually, when someone knocked on the door. i answered it, and a man definitely flashes an FBI badge at me. i was like "yeah.. let me get my mom" lol. [he was investigating background on rusty, obviously--and for any who don't know, which i doubt is anyone, but he's my older brother who's in the air force].

reno's new livejournal is friends only, and i don't have livejournal. neither does my homeschooler. maybe her and i should share a livejournal name and see if reno would let us be his friend.

mom and dad haven't left yet. i guess the jeep had some major crap wrong with it, so it got fixed today. they just went to go pick it up tho, and mom wants to leave here before 4 if she can. but i'll be at work by then. (4-close, if anyone feels the need to come visit me!!)

TOMORROW IS MY DAY OFF!!! WOOHOO!!!! i'm so excited. tim and i are gonna go see 'the village' in alliance, either at 1:20 or at 4, i'm not sure yet. and then i'm gonna hang out with jenny. i miss jenny. i haven't seen her since we were at camp. tomorrow is gonna be a gooooood day!!! :) if i can just get through work tonight first... BLECH

tim just got home. we're going to the movie at 1:20 tomorrow. if anyone wants to join us, leave me a comment, or i'll be online after midnight or 12:30. alliance isn't very far away from friends... :)

work was ok tonight. jeremiah still didn't get his stuff out of my car (i have a feeling its just gonna ride around with me for a few months, lol). i took a ride on breakfast cart. i was sitting on it, and then i rode on it (with the help of robert guiding me, lol) from there to the cooler, and then i stocked it. but it was fun. lynne came in to see me, which was cool. she talked to me for awhile while i was doing the close dishes. we got out of there around like 11:45, which is awesome. last night i didn't get home till about 1 am, today i was home before midnight.

deb sent out the staff address list today, but i can't open it. the file is excel, and thats not on this computer, or on my computer up in my room. :( i'm really sad, cuz there's some people that i wanted to email or write, and i have to wait till i can get to a computer that has excel to open it, which probly won't be till i get to school and use a computer in a lab. thats sad. :(

wow, short post! go me!! lol

hahaha.. so i just posted like .2 seconds ago, but then one of my campers IMed me and i have to share... i about peed my pants...

FBrunette 25: OMGSH GUESS WAT?!
relientkbandgeek: what??
FBrunette 25: my pee, was clear!!
relientkbandgeek: hahaha!!!! katie thats hilarious
FBrunette 25: lol! im soo proud
FBrunette 25: cause its soo hot outside 2
relientkbandgeek: i'm very proud too. good job
FBrunette 25: hahaha thanks

i taught those girls well. :) she was in my cabin at jr high camp, and i told them that they should drink so much water that their pee is clear (to prevent dehydration. it makes them laugh so much that they actually do it, it works!!), so it just made me laugh when she IMed me that.
i love camp. i miss it a lot.

i just watched under the tuscan sun. it was amazing.

i'm ready to pack up and move to tuscany. anyone wanna come with me?? ali how set on france are you? cuz wow... lets move to italy. [oh and side note to ali...i'm all over the gorilla, that thing is my best friend :)]

i'm listening to the cd that jeremiah left in my car, and its awesome. i want the spiderman 2 soundtrack. i don't have the first one either. i want both spiderman soundtracks.

well it was the spiderman 2 soundtrack. a beatles song just started playing... haha. that boy...

i'm hanging out with jenny on thursday! (thats my only day off from work....)

i need to call jeff, everyone says that my cars breaks sound horrible.

i'm gonna go watch under the tuscan sun and crochet.

dentist trip=normal dentist trip
then i went to AAA and got a ton of stuff for mom.
then i went home and got the 3 movies that i had due at the library, went to the library, and got 3 new ones [i am a loser and i know it....]
then i took mom the stuff from AAA, and hung out at the bank for awhile. the ladies down there make me laugh so much. plus i hadn't talked to laura for awhile (she graduated with rusty, and i used to be in school plays with her) so that was cool.
then i came home, and tim and i watched one of the movies that i borrowed from janson (the whole nine yards)
then i went to work, and worked 4-close. we didn't get out of there till like 12:30, it was pretty bad. but, i took a big step today... i let someone borrow my car. i can only think of 2 people that have ever driven my car without me being in it: reno, and anita hooley (when her and erin left camp twice at like midnight to go play tennis at central, lol). but today, jeremiah borrowed it. he worked 11-4, and he was still around at like 4:30, waiting. then he realized that steve (who he thought was picking him up) worked till 5:30, so he borrowed my car to go home. he brought it back later, and its all ok. not that i was really worried. he left a cd in the cd player (which is fine with me, cuz its yellowcard and then what he considers to be the 'good songs' off the spiderman 2 soundtrack) and he left a messenger bag in there too, but all well, i'll see him again.
i swore tonight. its been a really long time since i've done that. it made me sad after i did it. but i was mopping up behind robert, who was deck scrubbing, and i spilled the entire bucket of mop water, all over everywhere. and i said the s word. then brittany looked at the floor, and she said it too. then robert looked over and said it. so in a way, it was kinda funny, lol. robert helped me clean it up.
robert and i decided tonight that we fight like an old married couple. there are times when we freaking scream at each other (at least once a night), and we bicker constantly. but we're still friends. lol.
he made a comment tonight that made me laugh. he said something about jeremiah being in to work a lot tonight, and i said it was cuz he'd borrowed my car, which somehow led to a discussion of how he and i went to prom together, and we go to church together, and that we're pretty good friends and hang out at times and such. he was like "you and jeremiah should date. you guys have a lot in common" and i just laughed. first of all, i finally got over that. i got over him when i dated reno. i had a short bought of liking him again over christmas break, but then i met janson, and that ended that. :) second of all, he has a girlfriend, and i have a boyfriend. thirdly, i wouldn't want to ruin this. there was a time when him calling me 'buddy' (which i think must be one of his favorite words) crushed my heart, cuz i didn't want to be just his buddy (haha i was such a dork, lol). but now it makes me smile. there's just such an easy friendship between us. i love being able to just hang out with him, and not worry about what he's thinking. watching that movie last night was so funny with his comments. it used to kill me (in a good way) to sit with him and steve at church back in the day (like a year and a half ago) when i was the only from my family going there, cuz it was so hard to keep a straight face. and there really aren't that many people that i would just say 'sure' to and hand over my keys, without worrying obsessively about my car.
anyway. enough of that.
roomie IMed me a bit ago, to check up on me. i miss her.
i think thats all i have to say. my shrinking bladder needs emptied again. bye all!

i hate going to sleep with headache, and then waking up with it. thats the worst thing ever.

krystian bender and i are making plans to beat up the girl that hurt reno. so far our weapons are a spoon, a spork, chopsticks, and the tools that the dentist uses that i'm gonna steal. [i miss malone people]

now i need to get off to the dentist, and then to AAA to get my mom some maps for her trip this week. bye all!

tonight=well worth calling off.

oh, first--mom and i watched life as a house earlier today. that was a really good movie.

the last samurai (sp?) was amazing. it was so good. and watching it with my sunday school class was fun. jeremiah and i kept making comments throughout it, or adding our own dialogue.. it was great. the new quote for our class is one from the end of the movie, cuz we decided the emperor in the movie is a little girly, and he goes "i dreamed...of a...unified...japan". so we were like "i envision...a..united...sunday school...class..." and we laughed a lot. lol. i think you had to be there....
then i gave jeremiah a ride to mcdonalds so he could find someone to work for him tomorrow, which didn't work out, then i gave him a ride home (cuz his car isn't working yet, but he just got a red 91 cavalier... station wagon. so they're almost twins... lol). on the way there, we decided we wanted coffee, so we hung out there for a bit so i could see the girls, then we headed to perkins in boardman. he played random songs the whole way, he has a lot of the same tastes in music as janson.
when we got to perkins, we ended getting coffee and pie, and then we sat there for like an hour, just talking. it was great. we haven't really had a chance to talk like that in awhile. he told me about his girfriend, and MVNU, and galya (listen to galya!!!), and we talked a lot about music. it was just really awesome.
then we listened to more music on the way home, and he gave me one of his mixed cds cuz he had 2 copies of it. i finally heard all of the yellowcard song thats on the spiderman 2 soundtrack, and its amazing... and i was so proud of myself for remembering how to get home from his house. i hadn't been there since last summer. go me!! lol

i missed a call from jenny and a call from heidi while i was gone. the note said i could call heidi up until midnight, and it was like 11:52, so i called her. but no one answered. then she got online, and we talked. we're gonna try to work it out so that i can come down next week, but neither of us are sure if its going to or not. it basically depends on my work schedule. so i figure its up to God whether i go or not.


days like this make me happy. :)

its 5:30 and i'm not at work. isn't that awesome?? teehee... i went to church this morning, and then to sunday school afterwards. and i really heart my sunday school class a lot. we didn't really have class today, we just talked. they were planning dinner and a movie tonight at 6, and i was like "i wanna go! but i have to work..." so i decided that i was calling off for the first time ever. it was great. :) jeremiah said to tell them that it was his fault, cuz they wanted to fire him anyway, lol, but i didn't. so in a bit, i'm going over to the church to eat pizza and watch the last samurai, which i've been wanting to see for awhile.

SHANNON MCDANIEL JUST IMED ME!!! THIS IS CAUSE FOR MUCH CELEBRATION, AND I MUST GO TALK TO HER!!!! YAYAYAY!!! its been FOREVER since i've talked to that girl.... :) :) :)

tonight i worked till about 11:40 so travis could go to the hospital (something to do with his sister, i'm not sure what).
while i was there, i kept noticing more and more things about sean that reminded me of reno. it really made me laugh. he looks like him, just a bit. but they smell the same (i'm not a freak, i promise. i dated reno, i'm allowed to know what he smells like, lol), they laugh the same, they talk the same (except sean swears), they have a lot of the same mannerisms (i can't spell that word... lol)... it just made me laugh.
my work schedule this week is insane. i work 4-10 tomorrow, 4-close on monday, 4-close on tuesday, 4-close on wednesday, thursday i have OFF, 4-close on friday, 3-close on saturday, and 2-close on sunday. thats 60 hours, (counting tonight and thursday) 42 of which are in one week. thats 2 hours overtime!!! i've never gotten overtime before... wow.... lol. it makes me wonder if its gonna be hard to get a few days off to go to cincinatti tho... it might be. :(

heidi called tonight while i was at work. tim left a note saying i could call her around 10:30 and it wouldn't be too late, but i was definitely still at work at 10:30. i think i'll try to call her tomorrow sometime between church and work.

i wrote a post yesterday morning and it got deleted. it went something like this...

"work last night (and all of a sudden i don't have a double spaced blog? i'm so confused... lol... anyway) was ok. i closed with lynne and kaity with charity as mananger. we got done around 12, but then talked for like 15 minutes, which was kinda cool, cuz i usually don't think that charity likes me very much.
(i don't remember what else i said...)
then i went on a random tangent about how i spent some time reading older post's on someone's online journal, and i realize what a jerk i was. i really was. horribly. it probly doesn't even matter to that person anymore, but looking back... yeah... i'm sorry.
(i don't remember if there was anything else... lol)

tonight i work 4-10. tomorrow i work 3-10. monday i work 4-close. tuesday i work 4-close. i'm not sure about the rest of the week, cuz i haven't seen the schedules yet. but my mom told me today that tim and i are gonna be home by ourselves from wednesday until tuesday (they're driving the jeep that rusty bought out to him, and then taking an amtrak into alliance where i'll pick them up on tuesday at like 2:15 am), so i hope that i don't work that much. it'll be fun to hang out with tim. we still have a movie date!! cuz we totally forgot about it yesterday. :(
we watched peter pan today. i love that movie a lot. now i'm listening to the soundtrack.

i'm looking forward to getting back to school. i guess thats not really weird. i miss everyone a lot.

i'm done posting now. i should go get ready for work soon... :(

ohemgee... haha this is great :)
eligibilitydude: ew. you're sick.

relientkbandgeek: oh! and i have a magic shield that protects me from it, no matter what

relientkbandgeek: what if i died

relientkbandgeek: then you'd have to take my place as the sickest

eligibilitydude: No!

relientkbandgeek: but its true..

eligibilitydude: I would go right down to your funeral, and beat the pallbearers up as they tried to put you in the ground, then I would whip open the casket, throw myself inside, and shoot a bullet into my will to live, bursting it into oblivion, just because I can't even die if it isn't in the arms of the one whose sickness defies all sickness to infinity

relientkbandgeek: where do you come up with these things???

relientkbandgeek: i'm crushed.... my life will never be the same again....

i have to work tonight. blech. :(

i was watching the way we were and being a bum, and brittany called and asked me to work 7-close for her. so i said yes, cuz i need money. its only a few hours, right? i'll make it... lol.
so then as i was watching the way we were and being a bum, tim called and wanted a ride home from band. so i threw caesar in the car and went and picked him up. i love driving with my dog in my car, it makes me laugh a lot. but now my car is really nasty and hairy on the inside... lol.

now i'm being a bum again until work. i think i have to make dinner or something, but i don't feel like it. mom went shopping. so i should probly get on that...

uncle jared makes me laugh :)

today was good. i did nothing, then went to el tenampa for lunch with tim and doug votaw (that kid is hilarious, and when paired with my brother... yeah lunch was hilarious, lol). then i did nothing again (aka watched gilmore girls a lot). i finished off season 1 earlier tonight. while doing laundry for the family. and making dinner. so i'm not COMPLETELY useless... lol. then lynne and i walked to christy's house (nothing like walking 2 and a half miles... haha it was great) and hung out there for awhile. it was great. i love it that its like no time has passed when i hang out with them. we just pick up where we left off, gossip a bit (man did they get me caught up on leetonia... wow.... lol), and have a good time. then christy drove us home.
now i'm gonna go in the other room and get my yarn so i can crochet while i sit here, cuz no one's talkative tonight. except uncle jared, but he went to bed... lol. g'night.

(i'm still looking for a new blogskin....)

in my eyes, a good song is one that when you hear it, it takes you somewhere.

i thought about this as i was driving back roads home from wal-mart (where i bought insane amounts of yarn to fill my time with... lol) at like 10 pm, and was blasting 'unite' by the supertones, over, and over, and over.... it totally took me back to junior high, and the fact that i've been to like 8 supertones concerts in my life time. but supertones strike back was one of the first christian albums we ever had in this house, and we used to listen to it all the time. it was so long ago, that we have it on tape, and i finally bought it for tim on cd last summer so we could listen to it again.
it was highly enjoyable. :)

so yeah, i bought a lot of yarn tonight. mom and i are gonna attempt to figure out this pattern that i found that i like. except she pointed out to me tonight something that i've been doing wrong pretty much the entire time i've been crocheting, which is always good. haha.... such encouragement to know that my entire life, when it comes to crocheting, is WRONG!!!


oh yeah, and i definitely haven't taken my medicine since friday night, cuz i haven't unpacked yet and i can't find it... lol. thats always a good thing. i'm not too bad, actually. i've had some headaches, but nothing thats going to kill me!


part of me would do anything to be back at camp right now... :(

i've come to the conclusion that i should go to bed earlier. if i stay up past 1 or 1:30, i get crabby and angry. methinks i should sleep more...

in other other news... i got some jones soda today. that made me happy. we passed a sheetz on the way to rockne's, so i told my mom we had to stop on the way home. and we did. and now i have 2 bottles (well i did, until i drank one) of green apple jones soda. i definitely haven't had any since i was at malone.

now... back to my gilmore girls marathon! lol thats definitely the reason that i'm not online during the day--i spend all day watching the season 1 dvd... haha
and whenever i finish gilmore girls, i'll finish the second season of stargate :)

in other news, i just sat in front of this computer for 4 hours. i need a life. i'm going to bed now.


[praying for all the camp staff working adriel school this week! i miss you guys!]

well. i feel important. i've sat here at my computer, not talking, just waiting, for almost an hour and a half, only to be informed that since its 'down to just me now', the person i was talking to (or rather, not talking to) was going to bed. that completes my night.


i lie a lot. but hey, would i really be me if someone asked me if i was ok and i said no?
andrew said that we were gonna feel tired and down for awhile after leaving camp. maybe i can use that as my excuse.

well. i'm gonna start my update now,since i've slacked...

the music camp program went really well. i didn't mess up on turning any pages (for the first time ever, lol), and the kids did an awesome job.
that night, the staff went to the dariette instead of the usual pizza hut. it was good stuff. i drove from the ravine lodge to the main parking lot with becca lantz in my car, forcing her to listen to justin timberlake. it was great. then we ended up riding with everett, cuz he had a huge van and seats to fill. so we all hung out at the dariette, then went back to camp. i got my stuff together and was gonna head to jansons, but then robin needed a ride back to the dariette, cuz she couldn't find her wallet. so we went and looked, but didn't find it. so i took her back to camp, then headed to canton.
i had a good weekend with janson, it was a little longer (like 12 hours, lol) which was nice. we went to church and saw heat[h]er, which was awesome. well at least i thought so. janson says that he didn't, or something like that... lol. i think we watched butterfly effect that day. that was a really good movie, just fyi. or at least i thought so.

its been so long since all this happened that i don't really even remember... lol.
i do remember that we had communion/footwashing/anointing/general awesomeness at the staff campfire that sunday night. it was really awesome. i talked to ali for awhile. i miss her. she's not gone yet, but i am, cuz i'm not out there, so i miss her.
fledgling camp was ok. it had its ups and downs. i missed rochelle. ali and i lost part of the pug in sugarcreek (just one of the sides of the wagon. we recovered it soon afterwards, with much laughter and wetness). i left camp a lot that week. ali, donna (yeah, my boss's daughter, haha), and i went to taco bell, pet supplies plus, and wal-mart on monday, ali and i went to taco bell on thursday and bought 40 tacos to take to the counselor meeting for the counselors, and ali, lacey, holly, and i went out on friday night to friendly's. that was so much fun! i missed lacey a lot after she left, and we just had an awesome time. we also blasted crazy music on the way back to camp--nsync, backstreet boys, aqua (barbie girl... haha) it was so funny.

the staff reunion was awesome. i love being with everyone like that. those people mean so much to me... i miss them all so much. we just hung out at camp, since the weather wasn't quite nice enough for clays park.
after the reunion, rochelle and i went to orrville library to obtain a copy of sense and sensibility to watch--but it was checked out!! horror of horrors!!! so we went to movie gallery, and i got a card there just so we could rent it. lol. then we went back to her house (which is amazing and victorian, by the way) and watched it, then watched singing in the rain. it was a lot of fun. :) i left there around midnight or so, cuz her family was leaving for FL at 9 the next morning. i went back to camp and slept.

saturday i went to the relief sale!!! i love the relief sale. i was there from around 11:30 till 4:30 or so. i hung out with camp people, and then with travis and justin. i had so much fun with travis and justin. we went over to mcc connections, and we were there for like 2 hours, cuz justin was looking at so much stuff. it was great. i love those guys. :) i helped tear down a little bit after the relief sale. i helped move all the bleachers back to the soccer field. so productive of me! lol. then travis gave me a ride to camp so i could get my car, then i went over to dustin's, cuz he invited me there when he found out that there was no one at camp for me to hang out with. i watched shrek 2 (totally illegally, i love it... lol), ate dinner, played with their puppy, and just hung out. it was great. i gave janson directions, and he came out after awhile. then delight came home, and me, her, and janson all went for ice cream in wooster at scoops. and then to wal-mart. then back to delights. then janson came back to camp with me and hung out, walking around and stuff. i tried to get him to star spin, but he wasn't very good at it. ;) we sat on the boat dock for awhile and talked. i love how calm camp is.
the next morning, i went to church at chestnut ridge mennonite in kidron. then afterwards, i went to dairy queen for lunch with ben, travis, braden (2B), and rob. we had fun. ben invited me to his house, but i never made it there. i just felt like driving. so i got in my car (after i followed rob to movie gallery so i wouldn't get lost, lol) and just drove. for like 45 minutes. it was great. then i went back to camp and talked to rochelle yoder for an hour or so. then as i was leaving, ali and kelli came back, so i talked to ali for a bit. then i headed to jansons. i hung out there for awhile, then headed to mcdonalds (after going through a STUPID detour) back here at home to check my schedule. which didn't exist. they hadn't put me on it. i picked up saturday 3-10 and sunday 4-10 from some girl named renee, but other than that i'm off this week.

today i did nothing. i crocheted, watched 5 episodes of gilmore girls, went to the library and got movies, took tim to canfield (and blasted malaguena on my blast cd, it was great), and watched half of 'catch me if you can' with my family. and i made plans with people. tomorrow is lunch with my family at rockne's in boardman (yay!), wednesday is streaking with christy and lynne, and thursday is lunch with my wifey, yay!

ok now enough posting, that was too much typing!

i'm too busy sitting around, doing nothing, eating large bowls of salad with chicken that i made myself, and watching gilmore girls.
at least thats what i've done so far today. :)

i might go to the library and get some movies. and i'll probly go to salem to buy yarn and go to video safari. but basically, i'm gonna sit around and do nothing.

tomorrow my family is going to rockne's for lunch. its a celebration of me being home, haha.

sometime this week (maybe wednesday?) i'm gonna take tim to see the village. i gave him a choice between that and spiderman 2.

but basically, i'm gonna sit around doing nothing until saturday. maybe tonight i'll update. and i want to change my blog, too. you should find me a new blogskin. go to this website, and find me one. do it now.
