Warhoo, last night of bowling for Dan, which means last night of spending gas money to go see him. It's all good, I mean, I really enjoy watching my honey bowl, but I'm glad he's gonna be home earlier on Mondays from now on.
Whew, it's hot here in the computer lab. Just waiting for the autoclave to finish before I head off to Walsenburg. I'm quite thirsty too.
Thinking of getting Dish Network, even though I hate TV. I just want the DVR so I could record shows that are actually worth it. Except, to get your $50 installation fee back, you have to commit to 18 months, and I don't want to do that because after next school year Dan and I are seriously considering moving closer to his work (I'll be completing an internship in Pueblo for a year then start making the big bucks FINALLY) and probably even build a house on or near his dad's ranch. Dan is also considering buying land on Silver Spurs Ranch. Which reminds me, I need to drop by the bookstore when I'm in Colorado Springs again and look up some house plans.
Sheesh that seems crazy, thinking about building a house together. It's gonna be so cool. We are definitely putting in a pool, hot tub, and sauna. I'm trying to convince him to put in a bowling lane but that's more long-term.
Crazy that he wants to build a house with me yet I can't commit to an 18 month Dish Network plan!!! Haha, silly me. I guess I'll feel more confident when we finally tie the knot. Guess it's just really hard for me to trust people and to think that anything could work out so well for me.
But, I look at all the couples I know who have been together happily their whole lives (in spite of the expected occasional hardships that only make them stronger) and they are nothing less than an inspiration to me. I hope I can be so blessed. That Dan is confident enough to start planning a home with me, is a great encouragement.
I have left open the option of searching for the perfect engagement ring while we are in the Philippines. The only thing Dan is concerned about, is the questionable authenticity of the jewelry. I assured him that the jewelry stores there always have a security guard, and I highly doubt that anyone would pay a salary for a security guard if their jewelry wasn't worth protecting.
Well...enough about my love life...I'm so excited for school to end and to go on vacation!
Oh also, next semester I think I'm gonna take it pretty easy. Just Physics and Biochemistry. The only thing I hate is that Laura is going to take the same classes. I dread thinking that I have to spend another year with that annoying, child-like, disrespectful know-it-all with a speech impediment that she claims is an "accent" (though how one gets a Maine accent after living in Colorado their whole life, totally beats the heck out of me). Anyway. Guess I should learn to live with it. In life there are always idiots surrounding you. I'm just glad that at the moment she is angry at me. I'm enjoying the peace and quiet, and being able to go take a shit on my own without her stalking me.
Ughhh. I just want to head to Walsenburg now. Stupid autoclave. I would've liked to watch "Lost" on the internet, but the stupid thing keeps freezing. Just another reason I wish I had DVR. I usually don't get the chance to watch Lost when it comes out on TV, then when I get the chance to watch it online, more often than not the thing doesn't even play! Stupid bandwidth...
Man...that autoclave needs to hurry the feck up! :-)
