I figured it out!

I have been wondering who this Tim Kyle guy is on Facebook. He seems to be friends with all of these people that I know. I am guessing that everyone is just accepting him as a friend. I don't know him because **drumroll please** he went to LaVergne. I friended him nonetheless because he does look vaguely familiar. I can't help but wonder if he was one of us skate center people. Oh those were the days. Oh! Did I mention that one of my best friends that I met there over 14 years ago has a wife that is pregnant! I am so excited for them. No, like really excited, and I am not just saying it! This is the first of my really good friends that is going to have a baby! Ok so Jason and I dated several times! He is a great guy, and I am so glad that he and Bridget found each other! They actually met the same year that we met. Ok so you guys totally don't care, but anywho I think it is wonderful!

Have I shown you the super cute picture of my absolutely freakin' adorable nephew!? One super cute picture comin' right up!



Gloating aunt! I know! :) I can't wait until little Hailey is born! I am ready to show her off too!

Funny story of the day...

A guy walks out of the bathroom says hi to someone that he knows. The guy he knows walks into the bathroom after him. I hear a very loud, "Good God!" Hehehehehe I had to control my laughter!

OH! I totally forgot to tell you! I have a bike!!!!! They were freebies! I realized the other day that there were some bikes just sitting in the breezeway. The apartment complex sent a memo out saying that if you leave your bikes out under stairs that they would get rid of them yada yada yada. No one moved them, and the memo was sent out a few weeks ago. There were 4 and the apartment complex moved two of them to the "freebie" spot. This is the spot where they put things that the Salvation Army is going to pick up if we tenants don't take them. :) I was so excited to see the bikes there! They sat there all day, and no one took them so we grabbed them! :) YAY! I can't wait to be able to ride them! One of them has a flat, so that has to be repaired before we can but I am ready!! We can totally bike to the beach or around Back Bay!

Can I just win the freakin' lottery?

Sooo I went to get my oil changed today. Yeah, of course they tell me I need a new rack and pinion. That is 750! Ahhh! They charge 100 bucks and hour for labor out here! What the crap? Of course, they also give me a list of other things that need to be done. Jeez at the end the total was a little over a grand. All I can think of is that, if we were in TN, I could get someone to do this for me so much cheaper! I just don't want to risk driving home! At least, when it is fixed, it will be good for a while.....I hope. Jeez! Oh the cost of the almighty Sentra. We paid out about 3 grand a year and a half ago. Luckily Bennett's does not charge to look at your car because it took them 2 weeks of talking to Nissan people to figure out what was wrong with it. The 3 grand was not only for what was wrong with it. I think that was only about a 1200 bucks of it. Then of course taxes and a few basic things and "is this what the problem" things were done, but hey at least I am not worrying about that stuff now! Just rack and pinion and I need to replace my serpentine belt in the near future.

I found out the other day at work that apparently the store I am helping is supposed to be hiring someone this month to train, so that I can get the hell out of that boring ass store. Thank God! She doesn't seem to be putting much effort into finding someone, but she might want to. I sure as hell don't want the position. I think I may have to take a book tomorrow night because there is nothing to do! I am so ready to go back to normal!

I've had a fairly productive day.

I definitely didn't get everything that I should have gotten cleaned finished, but I got quite a bit done. Now, hopefully my husband will arrive home within the next hour and a half. He will be so tired that he just wants to go to sleep, but at least someone else will be here. When I get off of work tomorrow at 5:30 or whatever time I get off, I will be able to spend a whole day with him. Ahhhhh. I am sure it will be a day of leisure. Maybe just maybe we will go to the beach. NopE, I still haven't been. I should be ashamed of myself.

If you don't already know, Starbucks is having happy hour everyday until the 15th I believe. If you go between 3 and 5, they are selling 1/2 price frapps! :)

Another boring night at the workplace.

Is it the end of May yet? Seriously?!

My husband told me yesterday that he was going to make me dinner, so when I came home for my "lunch" break I would have something to eat. When I got here for my "lunch" break, he had just put it in the oven. :( Sucked. I got stuck going to McDonalds. I have GOT to get back to South Beachin'. This 5 lbs that I have gained has got to go away. Ok, so I seriously think my scale is lying to me! I refuse to believe I have only gained 5 lbs. Oh South Beach.....

I finally found out when my sister in law's baby shower is going to be. It just made me upset though because I really want to be there, and I can't because I am working at this stupid store without the ability to go home for a weekend. :( I just wanna go visit, and I know my MIL would front the money so I could fly home for a weekend!

ehhhh

It is only day 2 of working at this store. I miss seeing my husband already. The store is ridiculously boring at night. I talked to the assistant all night long because there was nothing for us to do! It is freakin' horrible! I don't understand how they can't handle that store with only 3 managers. I just don't get it! They even have multiple cashiers during the day! I don't know why because they don't do any business! The pharmacy does, but the front end is as slow as Smyrna's front end! Ok sorry I know you don't wanna hear me bitch about work, but it is only for a month......it better be only for a month. I really have nothing other to talk about though because well, I really can't do anything else except for go to work. Oh! I can bitch about the fact that my husband has to work on Friday (all day), and that is the day I have off. Of freakin' course! I mean why would I want to see my husband anyway!

Another reason I hate working nights.

I just thought I would say that another reason I hate to work nights is that I dread going to work all morning, and then I have to go to work! It is like being at freakin' work all day long!

To make matters worse! I have gained like 6 lbs! Geez! I totally need to get South Beachin' again!

I hate working nights

I am so heartbroken by all of the flooding going on back home. :*( I just want to be there, so I can help. At the same time though, I wonder if Jack and I being able to move here wasn't a sign that we needed to get away. The apartment complex that I used to live in's bottom floor apts were almost underwater. The parking lot was probably also pretty bad. I could not have a car right now. Instead I am in California, grateful that I can bitch about having to work 4 fucking nights this week because I have a job to go to. There are so many people in Middle Tennessee that don't have a job to go to right now because it is underwater. Not only is it underwater, but they don't know when they will be able to go back to work. A lot of my husband's friends are without work right now because they closed AO Schwartz in Ashland City due to the flooding. That could be us, and we could have kids to feed. It just kills me. I have friends who have been shop vac-ing there floors to get the water out. I am so entirely thankful that I do not know anyone that has lost family due to this tragedy. I am totally pissed because it is not getting the national coverage that it deserves! The people that I work with were a little too nonchalant about it. I said, "That is where I am from. I have friends and family there." No one said, "Oh that is terrible" because they can't see how bad it is there because it is not being covered properly. I did hear someone say, "Yeah, I heard about that" at which point I proceeded to inform them how bad it had gotten for some of my friends.

Ok on a lighter pissier note. I know I have no right to bitch right now, but I am going to anyway. This stupid manager that I am working for this month (cross your fingers it is only a month!) is making me work 4 nights this week. I am also already working 3 nights next week! What the hell? How is that fair? I better only be there for a month! I can understand 1 night or even 2, but there are way too many people at that store that can close to put me working all of those nights. It should be an even amount for everyone! Jack was so upset tonight when he finally realized that I was having to work nights again! He had made me this really nice dinner only to discover that I wasn't going to be home until after 10. I had just gotten back from grabbing some really unhealthy fast food when he arrived with this wonderful dinner. I felt so bad! I didn't have anytime to enjoy it. I was just scarfing it down. I ate the rest when I got home from work. I hate to eat that late, but hell I AM still up and it is currently 1:19 a.m. I can't get to sleep because I worked so late, and I like to wind down. I usually have 4 or 5 hours to do that. Is it June yet?
