Apparently we really are going to New York in July. Mom has to be in Minneapolis at the start of that week (lucky bitch), so she's going to fly in and meet us in New York City. We'll go to my grandparents' house the next day. Aunt Leslie, Uncle Vin, and the babies are living there, so we'll probably see them more than we usually do ( Read more... )

 Reasons why I hate John McCain:

• He voted FOR banning funds from groups who perform abortions
• He voted FOR banning third term abortion in any situation where the woman's life isn't in danger (though her health is fair game)
• He voted FOR the Help America Vote Act (which definitely does NOT help anyone vote)
• He basically voted AGAINST reapplying habeas ( Read more... )

 My excuse for not updating yesterday was that I was extremely sick. I haven't felt that bad in a long time. Even the Saturday following my Week from Hell wasn't as bad as yesterday was. I'm glad i felt better when i woke up this morning as there was no way I could have shown up late to work (or called out sick) after what happened on Friday ( Read more... )

My boss is an idiot. She makes a schedule two weeks in advance and then changes it without telling anyone. I mean, yes, she did take it down for a few days, but I thought that was simply because she didn't like having all that pape out there at once; after all, that was the first time she put two weeks' worth of schedules out there at once.

 I'm once again sitting at my dad's computer at work, waiting until it's time for me to trudge out of the air conditioning and into the blazing sun and humidity. Joy. Plus, my dad has apparently spent all morning yelling at Stephanie, my boss, about how I want my three days off next week to be consecutive so we can go on vacation and keep my mother ( Read more... )

Only two of my professors this fall can be found on ratemyprofessor.com, and most people seem to agree that my English professor is an obnoxious man who will fail you if you disagree with him. They also said he randomly calls on students. That's going to suck. I don't do well under pressure like that, and it'll just make the class unbearable. The ( Read more... )

I'm apparently getting very bad at this updating thing ( Read more... )

Wes quit. Apparently he quit Wednesday night. He and Stephanie had some sort of fight. According to Kenny, part of the reason he quit was because he didn't like that people were gossiping about him. I feel sort of bad about that as I was the one who told him that Stephanie was talking about him to Patrick, but then again, that wasn't anything to ( Read more... )

Today was an interesting day at work. Wes finally told me what he and Kenny were talking about last week: apparently Stephanie doesn't like the fact that he jokes around, and he said that she's crazy and gave some examples of stuff she's said. Since she's so buddy-buddy with Patrick, I had no problem agreeing with Wes that she's crazy. Then I heard ( Read more... )

We're no longer going to Biloxi this weekend. Matt's party's on Saturday, and apparently Jennifer's been planning on going to it for quite some time. This actually works out well, as this is my aunt Karen's first weekend off in a while, and I'll finally get to see her again. I haven't seen her since winter break (I think; it might have been spring ( Read more... )
