"i find a need to be the demon, a demon cannot be hurt"--guster
hey hey
well here is my weekend post. in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't SOUND exciting but in reality it kind of was. friday i didn't do anything, i stayed home. i debated going out but my body and eyes were really tired, and so i just stayed in, watched some sex and the city (which by the way, all seasons are $29.96 at walmart, this could have saved me time and my collection would have been finished a lot earlier, but oh well) so, anyways, that was my fun and exciting friday night. woooo
saturday i woke up early, got ready and drove out to my new stompin' grounds. i went to the post office first to get my key and patrick (family friend) met me there and said hi and got me a lemon slush *heart*. it does comfort me to know that there is a male within a 5 mile radius if i were to need any help with the house or whatever (yeah i'm sure his girlfriend would appreciate that). anyways, the leander people are really nice, it's really like i live out in the country, i KNEW i could find southern hospitality again. ;) after that i went to drop some stuff off at my house and then went to get paint to touch up the house. sherwin williams said they were not the carrier of my paint b/c they came to leander/cedar park in 2003, and my house was built in 2002. whatever. so that was a bust, then i went home, picked up my dad and then went back out to look at washer/dryers. it was a success, we went to home depot, lowe's, sears and thank goodness best buy. i settled on a washer/dryer by whirlpool, but came home to think about it first. when we got back, my aunt julie and her husband ed (eh) came through to visit. so when my mom got home, we went to dinner. yum! anyways, ed kept telling me all these things i need to do, like get a gun and all this dumb stuff that makes me dislike him even more. i know i'm from texas, but i hate guns and i don't want one in my house. when i get married and my husband actually knows how to shoot one, then sure, or if i lived in some ghetto part of town, then sure. but i have a security system, i'll have a dog, and i have a heavy duty, heavy weighted flashlight. but thanks for scaring me ANYWAYS. jerk. whatever. so they left after that, and then i once again, did nothing. lol. no, i went back to best buy and purchased my washer & dryer and almost choked when i signed the screen showing how much i spent...but ...oh well. then my mom and i came home, i also found out that andy's grandma fell and broke her hip, i love that woman and so i am sad, she is having surgery today (i think) so please keep her in your prayers. after that, i went to sleep before 12, and that i woke up to a wonderful thunderstorm sunday morning.
"sunday morning, rain is falling..." ~ maroon 5
anyways, sunday i slept in, made breakfast, watched some tv, then got ready and my mom and i set out on a massive shopping excursion, this is the time when i know that i am spoiled and grateful for everything my parents do for me. i got a bunch of things that i NEED, but don't think about, such as: a welcome mat, a utensil holder, a lamp (i knew i needed that), shower curtain (FINALLY!), art, and things like that. i came home, then went over to bundy's to get my glasses and hang out for a little bit. it was good to see her, and her boyfriend has so nicely offered his truck to help me move, awww. also, yesterday was sept. 11, i think it's sad that we as americans have kind of just started to pass over it, well , we become immune to it. take me for example, i remembered, i thought, i prayed, then i went shopping. or my uncle, who got married on sept 11 (AFTER 2001, who DOES that?). whatever. last year i was in new york and that was an entirely different feeling. le sigh. never forget.
today is monday, it's hard for me to get used to the sun rising later because i think my alarm is lying when it goes off b/c it's so dark outside, but it really is 7am. boo. anyways, plus today is cloudy still from the rain and i just wanted to stay in bed. but oh well. this morning, my mom was very pensive and asking if i really wanted the couch, etc, and then started crying b/c she wants me to have nice stuff, i'm like mom, chill out, it's fine. it would be easier to buy a couch b/c they'll deliver it and i don't have to worry about my dad like pulling his back out (again) so that's something else i have to go get. whatever. i already had my marketing meeting and at 1200 is my staff meeting. then i need to grab lunch, but i also want to stop by dillards to maybe grab some towels, etc. i need to get boxes today. my move-in date that i have made for myself is sept. 21, and my first guest is jenni, just in time for us to mess up my house for ACL. awesome. hehe, no, i'm really excited!!
peace out.
