I won't bitch too much

I always hate it when Jordan leaves town, always! I can't imagine what it's like for those long distance couples, they have a lot more strength than I do. It appears when he finally manages to get 3 days off of work in a row he bolts for the door and leaves town and every single time I am left all alone to sit and wait for him to return home. However, I won't bitch too much. I do get to see him every day when he gets off of work. I have the privilege of spending every single night with the man I love when so many are miles and miles away from theirs. Out of the many days throughout the year that I get to spend with Jordan, watching him leave to go to spend 3 days with his grandparents is the least I can do. I can't always be so selfish, even though I want to be. I get to spend the rest of my life with him and his grandparents will not be around forever. Believe me, I would join him if I could, but I have recently put an end to my lazy days by nabbing a job at my college's bookstore (I guess here is where I am supposed to say "the views expressed in this blog are mine and mine only and do not reflect the opinions of my employer?"). My first day begins tomorrow and will probably be 6 hours of box taping, book hauling, and stacking. Everyone jump up and down in excitement! No, really, I know its nothing great, but hey, it's a job and it pays and that's good considering I am squeezing every penny I can out of bank account just so I can buy some soup. Plus, I have also just put a down $250 dollar down payment for a cruise I am going on in May of 2009. I still owe more than half and if I really want to go on this cruise then I need to cough up the rest by March. Add on to that my monthly rent, electricity, cable/internet, and gas bills and we have ourselves a person on the edge of falling into some major debt. Not to worry though, the MSC Bookstore is here to save the day!

In recent events, other than starting my job and putting off a History paper that is 50% of my grade, I have been doing nothing. Jamboree was the event I was looking forward too all summer and now that it's over I'm finding myself bending ass over backwards trying to find something to do. I have cleaned my bathroom enough times you can eat off of the tile floor. I've probably left enough Facebook comments to leave people with the thought that I have now officially lost my mind, and there is only so much Youtube material on the internet that is actually worth watching. I have fallen into a routine and that SUCKS! As stated in my first post, I HATE routines! That's when life gets boring and I am not okay with boring. But I won't bitch too much because in about 2 weeks I'll probably be in the process of stuffing my own foot in my mouth when the new fall semester starts. Can anyone say spell M-A-T-H and G-E-O-L-O-G-Y? Yes, kill me, kill me now. Two of my worst subjects all taking place in one semester. Thank God I did not sign up for Spanish 2 or I might be on my way to buying a loaded pistol.

On the bright side, my family is going to the beach this week and even though I would kill to go and spend the whole week in the most beautiful beach house (more like mansion) with the rest of my family, I'll have to settle for the weekend. But again, I won't bitch too much. It's better than not going at all. So, a fair warning to all drivers planning to be on hwy. 6 and 290 Friday afternoon around 5:30, a '98 black Chevy S-10 will be headed south barreling around 80 mph (if the poor dear car can get up that fast). You'll know its me cause I'll be the one without a bumper speeding along the freeway with both windows down, hair flapping in the wind, Ipod swinging from the rear view mirror (the only mirror at that), and flicking off cars that insist going 55 until Navasota. I don't care if I offend you, I just want to get to the beach.

Actually, I have been watching a lot of CNN lately. Call me a huge nerd or political junkie but I am quite intrigued with world events today. There's a lot going on and the election is just the start of it. For those who are going to try and start a political discussion with me (although, I really have no idea who because the only other person I know interested in the election is just on the other side of my bedroom wall), don't bother. I know who I am voting for already. Nonetheless, that does not mean I have turned a blind eye to all of the recent developments or closed off my mind period. I watch and listen to the news everyday with an open mind, and who knows, maybe my mind will change, but as of now I am sold one one candidate.

My apologies for such a long post on such boring events, but this is my life. It picks up and it slows all the time. Currently it's at a slow point, but I won't bitch too much, I'm sure it will pick up, hopefully in a positive way. As for now, maybe I'll get back to trying to write my paper (note the "try"), or maybe I'll sit and stumble around the internet for a while before trying to fall asleep unsuccessfully. Then again, I'll probably just sit here and think about how much I miss Jordan already and wish he would come home. But, I won't bitch too much, because at least I know he will come home. Not today, not tomorrow, not even the next day, but soon...and I can't wait.
