R&R Does the body good!

I have thee most cutest picture of a dog in a swimming pool!  It's on its on float and everything!  That's the life!

The faire was GrEaT... of course there was a lot of weirdness (and for some reason pirates), but all-in-all it was entertaining.  I really wanted to see the jousting, but I was content with the sword swallowing, seeing a muddy version of Romeo and Juliet, and Barely Balenced.  We got these huge slushies that made the day!

Still settling in and then moving again! *sigh it never ends!

WoW!

Moving

MOving .. and more Moving and hey little random pieces of moooving...

Fingers Crossed

Keep those fingers crossed I'm on a mission to find a better job!

I think today I'm going to check out a new bike trail.

Yesturday I took a stroll down to fishing creek, wow, whole trees were demolished and knocked completely over with there roots sticking about six feet in the air.  The bamboo and bush is pretty much flattened.  You can actually see how far the water was above your head by following the dead tree leaves up until they meet the healthy ones.  I would say the water rose about a good 10 feet above me.  The water is now green and very algee ritten.  There aren't anymore crayfish or little wormies.  I'm pretty sure they are gone -- poor things -- to wake up from under your rock and be swept away at 30-40 mph.  The creek as completely changed its pattern and currents.  My island is there still but it's not "mine" anymore; it doesn't have the same shape, plus there is more than one island now.  Where I used to boat out to is now shallow with lots of rocks.  Town Park, , lets just say who knows when that will ever be open.  I went for a walk to see how bad it was and there are layers of mud and muck.  I can't really describe the damage.  The only thing that is in use is the tennis courts (one on the right side).  The smell of dead fish and mud are just gross.  Everything is just saturdated, trash cans are overturned, the runners streaching postes are either sunken or completely uprooted and moved, the grass is dying.  I couldn't even go see the lake because there was police tap roping the park off-limits.  The playground is covered with a thick layer of leaves, debree, and more river sediment.  As of now - no pool - no playground - no stepping foot into the beautiful park that was once there.  I was in complete amazement.

I'll post some pics up here when i get some.  When ever I find my camera.  That may take a long time since I'm moving in a few weeks!

I should complain about starving too much, I've made some people worry.  Don't worry I'm fine... 

Now, onto going to a new bike trail, on MY DAY OFF  yes that's right .. !!!

Broke

So, I feel kind of inspired by reading an entry from "the Broke Diaries" by Angela Nissel to start my blogging again.  Really doing this should tell you -- omg she actually had spare time to sit and relax for a few minutes! or... Omg work isn't her life -- who knew!!!??

In Angela's book she basically goes into how she survived college, and basically starved in the process.  I was like wow someone I can relate too -- only I'm sure her humor is much more uplifting than mine (that's why she's making the bucks and not me). 

Yes it's true, everyday i go into work and my co-workers actually ask me if I have eatten today yet, and if not when will I eat.  My one co-worker, God bless her, brings me in little snacks almost everyday.  I don't know what I would do w/o her!!  When your co-workers ask their supervisor if they have eatten today that should be a red flag -- wait you mean to tell me that you ate cereal today and that's it??? ...yes its true.  Or, if I eat out that almost counts as three meals right there.  Then I can only eat a snack or two later.

I'm just trying this out to see if it helps me distract my unhappiness and find humor in my poor... very poor lifestyle I'm living.  I was talking to my boyfriend the other night about clothes, and I have come to the conclusion that all but one or two peices are new (not bought by me), and the rest are four or five years old, christmas presents, or mostly hand me downs.  I just kinda sighed and wondered when the next time I will be able to buy a complete outfit.

I really don't want to drag to many other things into this blog other than my humor because bitching about a situation wouldn't improve anything.  So, in all ensence take what I say as humor and not complaints because even though you may see the dim side of the forest I'm trying to see the brighter side.

Ughhh... This semester needs to end!  Its like the never ending skipping record.

Today was BeAuTiFuL ... I loved sitting on the grass with Megan for the first time in months.  I could bask in the sun forever I would!  That was the best part of my day and talking to my sister online.

I went to my island today for the first time in a long time.  There are still so many good memories there.  I was talking with these three kids (who thought I was 16), and its amazing how much imagination we forget we had -- and still have.  The little boy showed me a teepee he made, and I for a good 5 seconds wished I was 9 again, so I could crawl into that teepee and just escape from homework or the parents.  Then I remembered that I never wanted to be that young again because growing up was tuff enough, going through it twice might be unbearable.  I am happy where my life is right now -- well a few more dollars in the bank wouldn't hurt -- but I have accomplished so much, and would never want to do any of it over again.  As much as I don't like school, I have to just keep focusing on the end result.  I will get there one day!

... Someday
