Long time




It has been a long time since I have been on here. The main reason for my blogging is for my good friend Audrey that is on her second leg in Africa. Hello Audrey! :)

A lot of stressful events have been occuring and I am going to use this as my stress reliever so I can leave Jon alone.

Living below people is always difficult, but right now it is especially difficult because those people happen to be my boyfriend (Jons) tenants. They are they most inconsiderate people I have ever met. Constant yelling, partying etc. They cannot afford to pay thier rent but yet, they are seemingly always high. My frustration is not the people itself (well, maybe a little) but the fact that those people still remain although they cannot pay a dime. Actually, thier electricity has now been shut off for a week and the hilarity of this is that they bought camping supplies to survive. When their electricity is shut off, so is our laundry room. So, Sunday we had to spend hours at a laundrymat. These people will always be refered to as the stripper, beater boyfriend, Bob and brother...to protect thier actual identities.

My car is dead. The first car I ever purchased is dead and I am sad. :( I ended up getting good money out of the car, but I am dissapointed because the car represented my true independence. The first large purchas I made, on my own, without the help of my parents. Photo of my car above. Its not the prettiest, but I loved it.

A good friend is getting married, to a person she has known maybe 6 months. Now, I am in no hurry to wed, but I can say that I feel a little entitle to be married before her. I know I know. I def do not believe in entitlements, but I have to say, I wanted this before she did. I am happy for her and I only wish the best, but I think this has brought out a lot of jealousy. Not just on my part either. I believe my friends are feeling the same way. Her wedding is this weekend and I still do not have an invitation. Annoying. Beginning to think I'm not invited.

Getting a job is a great thing. I am incredibly proud of myself. Now that I have had a good job for about a month and a half, I am realizing how more money can be a bad thing. I was previously quite frugal, now I am crazy with my money and only seeing the negative effects. It is def time to sit down and figure things out.

Speaking of my job. I love it. I really do. The people, the job, everything is so amazing. I am feeling a little sick today, but I am still happy about my job.

I need to remember the good things going on in my life. I think this winter has put me into a serious funk and its been incredibly dissapointing. I am looking forward to longer days, sunshine and a summer beer!

More to come!
