And the first week is half over

Didn't do a whole lot today. Just cut my moms hair and went to visit her friend Chris. We watched some TV, had Hot chocolate, and just sat around and talked. It was nice to just relax and get out of the house.

Tomorrow I'm supposed to go do Karioke in Negaunee...then Friday me, megs, and Lissa are supposed to go out. Guess I'll be able to keep busy till next week. Although, I might have to rethink comming down. I really don't know if I will have the money to do it. Guess it all depends on what my dad says when I talk to him next.

But, I guess I'm not feeling like writing much. Starting to get a little depressed. I really want to go back to houghton.

The rest of my monday

Anna and I went to Marquette. It was a little strange because I ran into a lot of people who I haven't seen in a long time. I ran into a couple of people I haven't seen since the accedent (which was 2 years ago) and it was a little awkward.

It was nice getting to see Anna though. She's alwasy been one of my really good friends and I miss her a lot. I also needed to fill her in on what EXACTLY happened with Kevin and I. It was kinda hard to explain via AIM.

Only other big event is that I got my new toung rings. I couldn't find the frog that I wanted so I just got some barbells. One of um has kinda a fuzzy ball....I think you'll like it ;) Urban Edge also had a tun of belly rings.....I was going to buy a new one (seeing as my butterfly disagrees with me), but then I thought I'd wait. That way I can bring you with me and you can pick one that you like. I almost bought Tanya a turtle one too..but I figured that could wait until the next time I'm there.

Sarah J called me today. Aparently Houghton is getting a bunch of snow tomorrow so she's not comming down to go skiing. Tom and I are still going, but he's getting some stuff done to his girlfriends car so were not going till like 4ish so I will probibly call you earlier in the day before I go skiing......all depends on what time I actually get up. Hopefully the house won't be as cold as it has been.

On a side note.....I'm starting to miss you terribly. It really dosen't help that I'm so bored here. I also don't know what I'm going to do about GLI either.....All I know is I really want to see you so we'll have to work out a plan. I don't think I can make it through the entire break otherwise. I also might be heading up to Houghton earlier than planned too.......I'm just going nuts here.

Apparently Jeremy is comming back up with Jay. It'd be really cool if you could meet him. We get along good and having all of us around is a lot of fun.

Anyways, I guess that's it for tonight. Some friends are trying to convince me to go out to the bars with them...but I don't think drinking in Marquette is the best thing for me to be doing. It's about a 20 min drive back home.

Miss you!

Only I would go visit people at 3am

Tom called me last night after I fell asleep. He had been out at the bar with Brandon and Zach and decided he was bored, so called me. I ended up going over there at 3am and hanging out with him till about 6 when we both were really sleepy. I know that sounds odd, but when I lived at home we used to do that all the time.....all except we'd usually both fall asleep on one of our beds and sleep half the day. Now that I've got you.....I just leave at 6am :)

He brought my mom home a rock from Fort Hood, TX, and showed me the $150 bottle of Wiskey he bought when his plane stopped in Ireland. He hasn't decided if he's going to drink it or not, but half of his family wants to drink it with him. I guess I get a taste if he does decide to drink it.....It must be good for that kind of price.

I got my birthday song from him too :) . Every year he plays me "The wreck of the edmund fitzgerald". He also learned "Fire and Rain" for me.....since I've been bugging him to do that for about 4 years now. I also figured out why his girlfriend has given me a strange vibe. Everytime I'd see them and give Tom a hug (which is standard for me) she'd give me a dirty look.....which dosen't supprise me now cuz she's still in High School!!! (Tom is just a little younger than me). I picked on him for that one.

It's been getting really cold here at night. So bad that I just got up cuz the house was just finally warm enough for me to take a shower. Guess I really need you around to help keep me warm.

I'm heading into Mqt with Anna today. I need to get the shorter barbell for my tounge (I might get something cute too) and I'm going to see exactly how much my Tattoo is going to cost me. I really want to get it done...but I'm thinking I might wait until this summer when money isn't quite so tight. It wouldn't be so bad, but I'm going to end up spending a lot on Tanya. I didn't get much from my big when I went through and I want to make sure she's the most spoiled of all the new girls :).

Don't feel too left out though. I'm thinking of plenty of ways to spoil you too. I'm in the process of copying a lot of stuff out of my moms cookbook so that I can make some of my favorite things up at school. :)

I think I'm going to schedule my Dr. Appt. for later this week. That way it's out of the way. Especially if I decide to head up to Houghton early. Don't get me wrong...I love my mom but we are both so stubborn and independent that we get in eachothers way. It's already starting to happen and I've only been home 3 days?? Oh well. Once Jay gets back it'll probilby be better because she won't be so focused on me. Were so highly critical of eachother......lol....we need somoeone else to create a distraction.

Anyways, I'm picking Anna up at 1pm (she flew in from Chicago so she dosen't have a car) so I'd better run. Especially seeing as mom has stuff for me to run and do for her before I leave. Hope you have a good day......Miss you! :::kiss:::

Lazy sunday

Got up and went to church at 9am. Mom was a little confused becasue we actually showed up before call to mass.....Jay and her are always running late and comming in as the bells are ringing. I got to see some of my family which was nice.

After church I came home and took a nap, then tried to figure out what kind of cake to make for your birthday. I think I decided but I guess I'll have to see what you think the next time I talk to you. Mom and I went grocery shopping, and then to the casino again. We lost all the money we won the night before.....well, that is mom lost it. I just mostly spent her money and watched. I'm not as much for the casino as I was.

Anna called me from the Airport. She's on her way up from Chicago for the week. Her brother is home from the Peace Corps too. He just flew in from France yesterday. Anna and I are supposed to have lunch, then Tom is comming skiing with Sarah and I on tuesday.

Anyways, mom and I are going to watch a movie. I hope all goes well with your teeth tomorrow.

First couple days of break

The community Christmas party at Cliffs Shaft went good. Lots of cookies :) We had pony rides there too and I was playing with the ponies before the kids showed up. Dusty and Pepsi were so cute...Dusty kept rubbing her nose against me if I stopped petting her.

My friends Brett and Becky showed up too. They were there with Justy (Brett's Daughter). She's about 4 (I think) and not shy at all...that is until she sat on Santa's lap. Becky sat on Santa's lap too, but that's just because she wanted some candy ;) I had a lot of fun. Justy decided to haul me around and make me be silly....not like it's that hard. Although I had the satisfaction of feeding her lots of sugar and then sending her home with her dad....LOL. Brett was SOOO happy with me. Only bad thing is that my ex step-dad did end up showing up. Grrrr. I was preaty nice though. Only one snide remark...which is preaty good for me when he's around

After that Mom and I went to Marquette. She wanted to go to the Casino and we ended up spending a few hours there. We were actually preaty lucky. I only spent $5 and ended up with $30.

Anyways, I suppose I should be heading to bed. Church is at 9am and then we have to re-stuff the dogs boxes with Hay so they can stay all toasty warm.....especially Newman. He's getting preaty bad. If it gets below 10 we have to bring him in now. He's just got nothing left to him....but he's still such a happy dog!

I hope you had a good day. Miss you!

Life always has to throw you curve balls :(

Ok...well, I packed up all my stuff at my moms house this weekend. Granted I spent half the time that she wasn't around crying. It's soo strange to see my room so empty. It really sucks.
The thing that pisses me off the most is that this whole thing isn't mine and my mom's decision. It's all because that jerk that we trusted felt like getting stoned and losing his job.....and now because it's deer season he feels like he can just sit back on his butt and hunt all he wants...while the unemployment rolls in......but hey......he lost his job cuz of a drug test so he's not going to get unemployement!!! Stupid Fer. So...now were losing the house and everything that we've worked so hard for.....and if I can't find another cosigner for my car to get my mom's name off of the title, I'll probibly lose that too! Damit! This isn't fair. We trusted him. He knew how far we had come from getting food baskets to having our own house and now...now look what he has done. You know the worst part???? The only thing he even gives a damn about are his rocks.....HIS ROCKS! That and his damn fish......the dead ones. All I know is that mom better make the right decision with all of this. I've alredy made mine.

I want to be a DZ

YEY! I'm excited. Yesterday was soo crazy but it turned out really good. I ran and did some errands, then I had a meeting with the Dean of the school of business. After that I had an officers meeting, then it was time for the Karioke Rush! It was soo much fun. After that I had just enough time to stop home, grab my books, and then run to McDonalds for some dinner. I had a 8-10pm make up session for my econ class. I ended up walking in with just a minnute or 2 to spare. I felt kinda dorky eating my dinner in a big ole lecture hall, but hey....ya gota do what you gota do :)
When I got home there was a envelope on the kitchen table for me. It was for a prefrence thing at the DZ house tomorrow. :) YEY
Today is K-day so I only have 1 class. How exciting. Were goin out there too. I haven't been out there before, but it should be fun.

Decisions....Decisions

I'm a little disapointed in how my one class went yesterday. I was sooo excited about doing the Rotary Webpage, but when we got togeather at the end of class for our first meeting, I got a very bad vibe about the group. This old guy kinda took over and was very controlling. He kept interuppting me and I could just tell that it was like "you are a child! You cannot do anything right! You must be managed, controlled and told what to do...you useless girl child!!" yeah....that dosen't set to well with me.

So now I have the decision...Do I stay and work on the project I was so excited about and that would go sooo well on my resume and dance around this conflict for the next 12 weeks....or do I switch out to a group that I know half of the people and I would be perfectly ok just chillin and having fun doing a project about video games?
