Admission woes, work worries, and general ranting

Well, It is now the 11th, and I have yet to complete my application for admission to TWU. Kylie has set a day for me, so she'll help me get it done. But dangit.

Also, Employee Evals are this month. Im still coasting on being new, but I want to be loved immediately. Will this be the case? Who knows.

Also, traffic sucks. Well, all of you have all day to make me feel better. Haha, kidding. I'm not really upset, I just hate the feeling that I think we all feel, when we feel like our lives are never going to change from what they are.

On the plus side, I got to watch LOST last night, which is, in my opinion, the best supernatural drama since Buffy the Vampire Slayer or The X-Files. People are going to talk about this for years to come.

Dawn of the Duncan

So on Friday, I went and watched Dawn of The Dead with me mum. I love this movie, and have ever since my friends Bill and Trey went to watch it with me one late Spring night. It is a scary and fun movie, with lots of humor, and cool themes about people and the end of the world. So, as Im leaving, I jokingly tell Mom not to get scared (seeing as how we have watched movies like the exorcist before, and she has called me later to calm herself down). Still laughing, I walk out of her house, close the door, and immediately hear an extremely loud, muffled talking noise. I Don't know whether it was the movie, the fact that it was pitch black outside, or my own jumpiness, but I DO know that I immediately knew I was going to be killed and ran back in the house.

Later on I found out I was hearing the football game from my old high school, which was less than a mile away. I guess I saved a couple scares for after Halloween.

Election Woes, and Weather Elation

You may notice that the title would sound cooler if the words were switched around. Notice how I dont change them. I shall only get on my soapbox for a moment, so here goes:

Damn the republicans! Bush sucks!

Thank you.

On the other side of my title, I love this weather. It makes me wanna go out and buy Christmas presents, stay in and cuddle with Kylie, and just come to work and enjoy the day, all at the same time. Also, for some reason I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving this year. (I usually don't, preferring to sleep from Halloween until December 1st.) Maybe because I get days off at that point, but also because I'm looking forward to spending time with friends, Kylie's family, and my own Mother. I'm so excited about getting to just chilling out with people, without any agenda or reason other than it is the holidays, and I have so many people I love.

This blog sounds sappy, and happier than most, but I promise I'll have much to rant about in the coming months. But I always do. Complaining is so much less of a driving force in my life during the holidays. It's probably the music.

We're In the Money (Oh, no we're not)

What a lovely feeling on payday to actually see the fruits of your labor, the thing that you have been working hard for all month, that fabled paycheck, that will enable you to provide for your family. Or at least it would, if the bank, the government, and 20 different organizations didn't take half of it on the very day you receive it in your account. Partly, this is just a one time thing for me, considering how I have had this job for a month, and was unemplyed the month before I got it. Im paying off two months worth of bills, overdraft fees, and various other things. I realize that on some level this is my fault, seeing as how I let my bank get that way and so forth. In my own defense, though, I know I would not have been able to survive without the gas and other things bought on my debit card while no actual money was in my account.

Anyways, while this whole thing was very upsetting initially ("You mean I have to wait ANOTHER month before I can buy/do anything!?!?") I am still proud that I pushed hard, waited it out and broke the wall of having no money for nothin' for two months. Even moreso, I know deep in my heart that this month will be cake compared to next semester, when I am living with mom, earning oodles of money, and Kylie is living at home. Those months will be the hardest, because I won't have my love to lean on (at least as much). Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.

Why oh why must I get sick from Thai food?

You know how they say that 1 is the loneliest number? What about if 2 is a lot like one? I got an upset tummy from thai food today. I hate it that sometimes the food we love is the most dangerous for us. (Especially in the case of people who like eating pineapple rinds).

Anywho, now that Halloween is over, can I still be in a scary movie mood? I never got to watch em all like I wanted. Do I have to move on to watching My Fair Lady, or The 10 Commandments, or whatever the hell else they play on Thanksgiving?
