2010/02/07 10:53 So this weekend I'm dog/house sitting and hanging out with lucky pug and her heinous breath. I've been lucky enough to get to spend bunches of time with my Wesley lately but unfortunatley it makes me miss him sooooo much when I'm not with him. Thank g-d I have my car now, it makes things soooo much easier although it doesn't appear that my driving anxiety isn't getting much better. It improved a tiny bit but then I nearly had a heart attack when a big rig was merging into my lane and nearly killed me so yah by bye tiny driving confidence boo on that but hey at least I don't have to rely on other's to drive me around anymore.
School starts up soon and I'm actually excited for it. I desperately need something to do, just a routine to follow and since I am still jobless throwing myself into school will help with that. I'm excited for Arabic 2 but also nervous because as much as my teacher gave me decent amounts of praise and only got on me for my pronunciation I seriously remember like NOTHING from last semester. But she is a very sweet lady and offers all sorts of tutoring and what not. No anthro for me this semester but I will be taking some sweet swet geology so yay on that.
hmph I'm bored and ready to go home and maybe even finish cleaning my disaster of a room. I got like 4 loads of laundry done the other day so awesome on that only like a bajillion more to go
ooh and I really want to throw myself into working out. I have a gym membership and 3 beautiful bicycles it's time to put those things to use because I feel like a disgusting fatty
2010/01/28 09:56 meh so I've been absent from IAM for a decent chunk but not much is new other than I totally got a car last week!!!!! Although, I barely got to have it for a full week before it went back to the dealership to get something fixed but I am supposed to get it back today. Driving still scares the crap out of me but thus far I haven't had any close calls accident wise and I've driven in the super scary rain which was no scarier than normal driving. I've visited Wes a couple times and tomorrow we're going to SD. School starts up in a few weeks and I'm actually a bit excited for it. Well, maybe excited isn't the right word but something to do three days a week will be nice. It'd also be quite nice if I have a job before classes start. I have some applications floating around but currently the job I have my fingers all sorts of crossed for is a dog grooming apprentice at petco. The groomers always look so angry there, if they hired me at least they would have someone who is way stoked on what they get to do.

not much is new, still looking for a job but not much is happening there. I applied at ross like 3 months ago and I heard back from them today so I hope something comes out of that
thanksgiving was awesome I got to spend wed-fri with wes and it was beyond wonderful. I've been pretty lucky and getting to see him a couple times a week which given the situation isn't too awful. this is my last week of classes and then I'm done
last thursday wes and I spent the day in LA. he played hockey at the staples center, then we made a quick run to melrose and back to the staples center for the kings game. I had a lot of fun and especially enjoyed the scuffles it would have been nice if there was a full blown nasty fight but I still had a great time, I have decided that the fights are my favorite part of hockey although wes thinks I will change my mind once I see one in person and I don't really disagree with that
I need to study for finals but I'm kind of burnt out for the day, at least i did get a couple hours of studying in which is good because normally I procrastinate and don't bother studying until the night before. I'll probably put in a few lab hours tomorrow and that should help
p.s. i want my volvo
that means clearing all the paperwork with the dmv, a trip to bakersfield, four new tires, fixing the overheating problem, and bringing that sweet sweet car home with me. who knows when the fuck this will happen because my dad is a million bajillion times flakier than me. also, what exactly is an overheating problem and can't a mechanic fix it for a few hundred dollars? I don't understand why my dad is insistent upon me working on the car and fixing it. the simple stuff like fluids and what not I understand but I think the other stuff is silly. bleh i hope it doesn't need other new things too like breaks, or a transmission, or other car part names I don't know
2009/11/14 15:43 Ok so Gryffin is having his surgery tomorrow and below is information on how you can help if you would so generously do so and every little bit counts. I've pasted the details below from Charllotte's facebook. sorry I don't know how to make the link work so just copy and paste
My 6 yr old pembroke welsh corgi Gryffin has developed glaucoma and needs surgery to perform enucleation on both of his eyes. This is where they take out the inner part of the eye and replace it with just a small ball. He is blind so his eyes are completely useless to him except that the glaucoma is very painful and the eye drops VERY expensive!
Some people have asked how they can help and I appreciate all of the support my friends have given me. You don't know just how good your friends are until your time of need. If you would like to help please click (or copy and paste) this link https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=marketing_us/send_money to donate for Gryff's surgery and select the "personal" tab. My email is clditmore@gmail.com.
You can also help by reposting this other places that you think maybe we could get more donations.
2009/11/09 19:41 Does it infuriate anyone else when the question "do you believe in UFO's" is asked?
seriously it makes me want to punch people. UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT!!!!!!!!!! That is what UFO stands for, unidentified flying object. Asking "do you believe in flying saucers" is something completely different. I'm not sure why it irks me so much but it really does almost as much as when people say "could care less" if you could care less go the fuck ahead because it's "couldn't care less" dumb ass mother fuckers
sorry there was some stupid radio poll and that was the question I kind of wanted to call in and be like "yes I believe that sometimes I see things in the sky and I do not know what they are"
I'm having massive pms issues today. Seriously it's ridiculous, improper terminology is making me nearly violent and earlier today I was watching an episode of northern exposure and they were talking about a russian jew who got kicked out of something for having zionist beliefs, seriously it was covered for maybe two seconds and I got all teary. oh and last night I was watching snl via hulu and on weekend update they were making fun of that sarah mclahclan commercial for the aspca and that got me crying. it wasn't even the freaking commercial which regardless of crazy hormones I can not make it through without ugly crying but no joke they showed a picture of a dog and were like "this dog is a single mother" and I started crying, yah the skit wasn't funny but snl for the most part isn't really funny but umm that's certainly not something to cry over
hopefully I'll feel better tomorrow and won't cry over something stupid like my oatmeal being too sweet. I am exhausted, I think I'll probably go to sleep soon, freaking gramanda, oh and hooray for seeing wes tomorrow and with any luck I'll somehow obtain some money between now and then
