11 o'clock already. Damn. That means this'll probably be a bit short. Bleh.

Josh may have found a good car for me already, and I'm really excited about it, but it will be awhile til I'd be able to drive it, once we pay for it, since it needs the transmission worked on. But he tells me it's a really nice car, and so far, he thinks it's worth it. So, yay!! :o)

Celery and peanut butter....mmmmmm good! :o) I haven't had this in a very very long time, and I forgot that I actually liked it.

I am going to be draggin my ass tonight at work. I went to bed about midnight, but was laying awake for a loooong time thinking about shit I don't even remember, and I got up at 6:50 this morning to say goodbye to my Joshie and I ended up exercising later on. I feel good now, but I haven't done a lot yet, and I have to last til 10:30 tonight. Bleh.

I better get goin now. I have to stop at my parents' house, get to the realtor's to pay the rent, and get home to eat lunch and get ready for work. Have a wonderful weekend, because seeing as how I won't have a vehicle to drive on Friday, I probably won't be back until next week. Anyway, be back sometime soon!! :oD

I can't believe it's almost October already! Time flies when you're having fun... *rolls eyes* Well, I guess these past few months coulda gotten worse, but they seem to have gotten better, altho I really miss things the way they were before I went on second shift. Hell, I actually miss going to bed early! That might only be because I could actually relax for an hour before I hopped into bed for the night. Now, I come home, take a shower, get into bed and read for a bit. I'd stay up later, but then I wouldn't be able to get up at 8 and get enough sleep, plus I have a shit time tryin to get my stuff done every day so as it is, and if I'd stay up later every night and get up later, it'd be more of a pain in the ass. Oh well, I do intend to get another job soon enough. I just don't know when or where this job will be.

I just know this second shift bs is really gettin to me already. I miss Josh, I miss the normalcy of working first shift, really everything. Except getting up so damn early. But the time I used to get up was a bit extreme. Definately not worth it for the job I was doing tho. The job I'm doing now isn't so bad, but it's not really all that great, therefore not really making my shift change all that much worth it anymore.

Ok, I did not intend for this post to be a bitching about my job. Only about other stuff. ;o) Oh, has anyone ever seen the movie Donnie Darko? I did yesterday. I missed a few parts, cause it was my cleaning day, so I forced myself to get off my ass to do a few things, but I did see almost all of it. It's such a weird movie, and it stayed in my mind long after I got done watching it. I'm not sure what my opinion is about. It's definately an interesting movie, anyway, if I would have to say anything about it.

Hmmm...oh, yeah, I never did write about the car. It seems I need to buy another car. The work that needs done to it for inspection/emissions is about the same amount I paid for the car, and that definately isn't worth it. So, I am in the market again for a car. Not really thrilled with that, but there isn't a hell of a lot of choice about my car. I have til Thursday to drive my car, and then I won't be driving it anymore. :o( So then ends my fun with my first car. Hopefully my next car will just be the greatest thing, and I will forget about my old crappy car. Probably won't take much to make me happy now anyway.

Well, it's that time again. I must be on my way. Oh, btw, I do know that Crystal is back to updating again, and I may be adding a new link when I get the time. I'm already behind as it is. Gah. Anyway, have a beautiful week you guys!!! :oD

I am soooooo happy the weekend is only a day away!!!!!! :o)

Damn email hogs up my time online. Gah! I've been here a total of one and a half hours, and spent nearly that time reading email, and posting quotes. I swear, it really is more of a pain in the ass than it's worth. So why do I keep doing it? I'm hopeless. I can't control myself to stop saving the quotes. Not to mention, I had about 60- no make that 70-something emails on one account alone, plus my other two accounts. Geez. And now I have to get home. Eh. It coulda been worse anyway.

I have to weed out my blogroll. Some of the links I don't think work anymore, and I also don't have time to read them all, so I may have to make this my mission over the next week or so (since I'm not here every day anymore).

Oh, I have more to talk about, but lack of time is screwing me up, so I must get goin. Have a wonderful few days, and I hope to be back by Friday!!! :oD

Yep, I'm still alive. I just haven't had a lot of time to come over here and blog. I don't have a lot of news, but I do have a little bit.

We finally got cable, which was installed on Monday, so we can actually watch the tv now!! It's already gotten me into trouble; I spent Tuesday morning flipping through the seemingly millions of channels and ending up on a movie, and not accomplishing much at all. That woulda been the day I shoulda come over to get online, but that didn't happen.

And when I turned the computer on, I had to reboot, like, 5 times before I could actually use it. The fucker kept freezing up on me. So, you may hear a bitching soon about my bro in law. ;o) Seriously, they need to stop downloading shit if they want this thing to work right. Oh well. I'm tired of thinking about it, and I just am trying not to care about anything that has to do with this thing.

And in other news, I had 788 freakin email messages on one accout alone! I was like, "Holy fuck!" Most of it was spam, so it's not like I'm actually that popular or anything. Heh.

Crap. It's already 11:30. Damn. I have to go soon. Bleh.

Banana nut muffins are the greatest thing on earth!! After being in withdrawal after missing out on them for so many months (since I've been away from my job in the other building), I finally bought some at the grocery store. They're soooooooo good!!! Not that I need to eat more unhealthful calorie-laden food than I already do, but that was something I couldn't resist.

Oh, and apparently there is a spring in the middle of one of the little towns around here, and I didn't even know it. I've been buying all this bottled water (cause I refuse to drink the water from the apartment, besides the little bit I use for brushing my teeth and cooking and stuff like that), so this is good news for me. I haven't gotten sick or anything from it, so I trust the water from the spring.

And second shift isn't sucking too bad. I just feel really out of the loop concerning anyone else lately. Like, I miss the Friday nights already. I don't feel like part of the group anymore. Not to mention, I haven't seen any of Josh's friends in quite awhile. Not that they started out as my friends, and I don't really take part in the convo half the time, but it was nice to be included. Which is one of the things I've missed about my other job, and now I have to deal with it even more. So that part sucks. I like that me and Josh seem to have most of the weekend to ourselves, but I do like to be included in the "group festivities." Heh. I dunno if festivities really describes it all accurately. Oh well. I just miss the human interaction, I guess. Considering I don't even get to talk to my friends now.

Okay, well I better get goin now. I'm not really in a depressed mood or anything, just contemplative I suppose. I hate to end the post like that. Even tho I'm tired, I'm still happy. Maybe I can find a happy quote quick.

-The Many Faces of Joy by Philip B. Kunhardt Jr.

"Joy is contagious.
It can spread like a forest fire,
Whipped by a high, hot wind.
Joy can be shared in a crowd.
Or it can be savored all alone.
Joy can bellow.
Or it can fall soft as a kitten's tread.
Joy can excite.
Or it can comfort.
Joy can be sensuous.
Or it can spring from the intellect.
Joy can bewitch.
Joy can be sweet.
Or it can be zesty, euphoric, giddy.
It can teach. It can heal.
It can lay to rest old pain.
In a world so darkened by suffering and uncertainty,
joy can brighten our heavens and make life worth living all over again."

Well, that'll have to do. Anyway, I really do have to go now. Have a wonderful weekend guys!! Believe me, am I looking forward to it!!! :oD

PS Here's another quote I thought was amusing, and because I'm driving Josh's car today (which has problems with leaking when it rains *please don't start pouring rain til I get home*, but is a hell of a lot nicer than my car), it reminded me of the car when I read it:

"I don't know how you define rock star, but I'm pretty sure water doesn't leak into the trunk of his Mazda whenever it rains." -- Spoon's Britt Daniel
