Cripes, I'm Old!

I can't be 28 already!!! I had so many plans that I wanted to accomplish before now :(

One more official sign that I'm getting to be a geezer: I just got an email reminding me about my 10-year high school class reunion. Baaaaaaah!! I still remember much too much about those ol' HS days. Do I really want to see anybody again yet? Guess I have three months to decide.....

Official sign two: the "light light light blonde" hair has not decided to disappear. Natch, guess I'll really have to start plucking or getting a new dye job!

Sign three: my left knee is really starting to whine a lot! After many, many trips up three flights of stairs during my big move, I just could not stand to walk anymore. And yes, it can tell when the weather will change too.

But....other than those gripes, I feel rather young! I still have school and nobody has mistaken me for one of the "returning experienced learners" yet....I'm hanging out with gals a few years younger than me without getting all motherly, and I'm acting like I'm still in college with drinking (yeah, I know, I still have to chill out on that!). I'm just NOT READY FOR A REUNION AND HAVING TO ACT MY AGE AND FIGURE OUT MY LIFE PATH YET!!

Alright, end of rant!

Hellooooo Stranger!!!!

Yikes, almost a month since I posted again! Why is it so hard for me to write when my personal life is going pretty well? Maybe I think it'll be too boring for anyone to read....

Well anyways, I have had some bumps in the road, but I think I'm better off for having to deal with it. Number one bump: I just moved again!!! Since I had the car accident (oh yeah, that's bump #2), the manager was a bitch about replacing the keys that I lost...the apartment was too noisy...and some more random complaints....so I broke my lease and found a much nicer place with a lot more space and one extra bedroom for only $35 dollars more. Not too bad of a deal! Another great perk of my new place: I'm right across the street from a gym I have always wanted to join. Yay! No excuses!

What else is going on? Well, I'm still working like a dog with my two jobs.....job two will be done after Mother's Day finally!! It was supposed to end after Valentine's Day, but then they kept extending my temp time there....and I need the money....so I didn't complain too much. Getting up at the buttcrack of dawn sucks, but the job is waaaay slack. At my full-time job, I'm doing really well and am becoming an expert on all our products. I still seem to have the knack for selling crap when I need to. This job will pay for my schooling for any degree, so I'll be sticking around there for a few years if I don't strangle myself first!

Oh yeah, and the big news? Paul is moving here. Yep. I'm excited, but I'm nervous too. I wonder if a bit of his quickness to get here has to do with me seeming to be fully functional on my own, going out and drinking too much on Thursday nights, and his jealousy about a certain guy friend of mine who values my opinions. He's getting here on Saturday....I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that everything works out. I can be a bit of a pain in the arse, and now he'll see firsthand how much I've changed personality-wise in the months since we stopped communicating. Don't get me wrong, he isn't perfect either, so we'll have to learn to deal with each other.

Well, my bed is calling my name....luckily I only have to work one job tomorrow!! I'm going to try to keep you all updated as much as I can!!
