Because I really have to get to sleep because of
Classes tomorrow
I just wanted to do a quick little update
Well, you all know I fell down the steps
I'm on crutches, so I can't go to work
I was planning on walking on my own by this past weekend
No such luck
I have another physical therapy session tomorrow and Thursday
So I'm hoping I'm walking by Thursday at the latest
Rich and I went to see ICP Saturday
It was amazing
I loved it!
Rich wasn't too thrilled with being drenched in Faygo (soda)
But he dealt with it
We were in the beginning area of the mosh pit
And yes, I was on crutches
The people around me said they wouldn't let anything happen to me
Not to mention Rich was there
Driving there was intense
There was snow everywhere
And you could hardly see!
I was surprised Rich was able to drive in it
There was ice all over the roads
And we had to go up, then down a mountain
It was a bit tense in the car for a little bit
But in the end, it was well worth it
Hed EP
Was saying how if you think positive, you get positive results
I 100% agree
And he also said the Juggalos are NOT a gang
And any "Juggalo" that does an act of violence
Especially on another Juggalo
Isn't real
"You can't be a Nazi Juggalo, unless you're fu**ing retarded"
I couldn't help but laugh and nod my head at that statement
I loved it.
I misplaced my Wal-Mart card
And got my replacement
So, today after classes
My gram and I went to the mall
I picked up my paycheck from McDonald's
And my paycheck from Journey's
Then found out that I will no longer be working
At Journey's
Not enough hours, etc.
So, we went to Wal-Mart
And the first thing I did was go to the electronics
I went as fast as I could
(Mind you, I'm on crutches)
And told the guy to open the case, I'm buying a PS3
So he did
Then I said give me
Need For Speed: Shift
And he did
My gram and I went to the register
And I bought them
I didn't look as I swiped my card
And I took a couple deep breaths before doing it
I never made a purchase this big on a credit card before
So then my gram and I looked around
I cashed my checks
Then got Rich some stuff for this
"Energy Pack"
That I'm building for him
So far it has 8 Butterfingers, 8 Hershey's bars and 2 Red Bulls
The idea is for him to eat/drink the contents, and have enough
Energy to play his games all night
I thought it was a cute idea
=)
<3
I'm so excited for Christmas, now
I just want to see his face
Granted, I have a few more things to buy
But...I'm not too worried
I was planning on getting my gram
A digital photo frame
She's been wanting one of those for the longest time
So I hope I can wrangle enough money to get it for her
Well, I have to go to sleep now...
I'm out

Let's see...
I've decided to get Rich a PS3 for Christmas
And I'm going to do everything in my power to get it
Nothing will stop me
=)
He's been working
And I've decided to take on two more jobs
Totaling three jobs all together
Plus go to school
It's gonna be worth it
I know it is
So...Friday
The infamous Black Friday
I worked 7-3
Then I went up Rich's
I updated my Facebook saying
"I think it's gonna be a good night"
And it was
Wanna know why?
Because he gave me my ring
I'm so happy
It's a heart
10k gold with 7 .15k diamonds
It's absolutely beautiful
I can't believe he bought something like this
=)
It makes me smile like...
Wo.
Saturday..
Well, that's the part that kinda sucks.
Saturday Rich and I were going to go to the store
I wanted to get Beagle
So I was on the top step and I turned
But my foot didn't, and it caused my knee to pop
Because my knee popped it couldn't support my weight
So, I just went tumbling down the steps.
I don't even remember falling.
I remember the pain from my knee popping,
I remember seeing a step next to my face,
Then being in the fetal position laying on cold concrete.
Rich ran down the steps
He starting yelling
"Amanda get up"
"Amanda say something"
"Amanda please"
I just laid there
It's not like I did it on purpose
I was just trying to grip what the hell just happened
Then I said "I'm okay"
I still didn't move though.
It hurt, man
He just kept saying
"Please get up"
I kept telling him I couldn't
I didn't want to move
Then his dad came in
And told him to help me up
Rich told him I didn't want to get up
Which is true
I just fell down 15 steps
Would you get up?
I didn't think so
[he told me this part]
He put a shirt under my head so it
Wouldn't be on the concrete
[I didn't remember that ^]
Some time before that I went from being in the fetal position
To just laying on my back
I have no idea when I turned, or even how I did it
All I know is I looked at a drill with a drill bit
And a pack of nails was laying next to my face
Then I started crying/screaming
This made Rich upset
He really didn't wanna see me cry
Then either his dad or him
I'm not 100% sure who
Said to call an ambulance
I said no
I didn't want an ambulance
That costs more money
Not to mention Dobie and Skinner would probably bite the
Paramedics
He's really protective
He'd only see me screaming and crying
And total strangers reaching for me
He'd think they were hurting me
So...
Then I told Rich I wanted to call my gram
I just wanted to know what hospital to go to
What I needed
And all that
I called her
While I was on the phone Rich put ice on my left knee
I screamed
"Don't touch it!"
He got a little upset
My gram said to go to General
So we did
I cried the whole way there
Rich [finally calm] kept telling me I'd be ok
I was mainly trying to work on my breathing
When I get worked up, I have a tendency to hyperventilate
So we finally get to the hospital
I told Rich to go in and get a wheel chair
He went in and came back out...
With no wheel chair.
I asked where it was
He said there wasn't any in there
So he had to help me gimp in there
A lady from the waiting room came out
To see if I needed any help
We got to the chair
Then Rich looked at the guy behind the desk and yelled at him
"Where the hell are your damn wheelchairs?!"
"How are hurt people supposed to get in here?!"
The guy just looked at him.
Whatever.
Then Rich went out to move his truck
That's when the guy started asking me questions
And then he brought out the wheelchair
Prick.
He wheeled me over to the waiting area
Then Rich came in
And about 3 mins after that they called me in
To check my vitals
Everything was fine
My blood pressure was up
But that's a normal response to pain
Then I was back in the waiting area
Then they took me to the ER
I didn't even have a room
I was Hall 1
Ha ha.
They were saving the rooms for the cardiac patients
Whatever.
A nurse came to check me out
They had to put a neck brace on me
That irritated the hell out of me
Another nurse came to check my neck
Then she took the neck brace off
=)
She checked the rest of me then discovered
She couldn't get to my left knee
So a male nurse took me back to a room
He said Rich could wait there
But Rich insisted he go
Rich ended up helping me get my jeans off
They were so tight
So I got a gown and a sheet and a blanket
Then wheeled me out to the hall
We waited until I got X-Rays
Then CT Scans
We were there for about 3-4 hours
Which, in all honesty, isn't all that bad
They told me I had tissue damage in my left knee
Minor head trauma
And contusions all over my body
I have pictures, it's just the matter of putting them up
I couldn't get my jeans or boots back on
So they gave me a pair of XL scrub pants
A pair of socks with the grip on the bottom
The gown
And two blankets
They also gave me an Rx for Tylenol 3 with Codiene
Which aren't doing CRAP
=(
After the hospital
We went to McD's
Then to my house to let my gram how I was
Then we went to Rich's house
Then to Bud's
Then to Rich's
=)
I inspected myself
I have bruises all over my body
It sucks so bad
I feel and look like I was run over
Sunday
We stayed home all day
We watched movies on Cartoon Network
It was pretty cute
All he did was take care of me
He's perfect, end of story
I can't believe how much I love him
It's so incredible to me.
Well, I'm out

One not so cool thing is
My cousin's ex boyfriend, Tony, was murdered
I'm not going into details
It'll just piss me off all over again
R.I.P. Tony
Rich came home for good
...
That was already said
But now he has a job
$12.00 an hour, not too shabby
=)
I'm happy for him
School is okay
I'm on my third semester
It's more or less a cake walk
Things have been going pretty awesome
=)
And I'm actually really happy with the way my life is going
...
Of course, with the exception of my working status
I need more hours, simply put
I'm honestly getting to the point to where
I'm contemplating selling things
Taking pictures of some stuff
And posting them on Craigslist
Or something.
Holly [the kitty]
Is laying on my lap between
My abdomen and the laptop
Making it a little difficult to type
But no worries
=)
Her birthday is on Halloween
She's gonna be 4
Premium Feast
(Or something like that)
Sent her a birthday card
With a coupon for a free can of food
Ha ha ha, I thought it was cute
I just went for a walk a little bit ago
And it's raining
I saw a cat running
Then I looked closely and realized it had
A little white mouse in it's mouth
And it was moving!
Ha ha ha
Kitty has to eat somehow, right?
Anyway, I'm done...
I'm out

Rich came home for good
And I think it's so awesome
The circumstances kinda suck
But he's here
And we're happy
I was thinking now since he's here
I'm going to get a new job
He'll be here 24/7 so I can work on weekends
As sucky as it would be
I can get some money
Save it up
And when I graduate we can have enough money
To get our own place
Granted, it's a few months from now
But, I have a habit of wanted to be prepared
School is going okay
I just wish I was a bit better at taking tests
It's not that I don't study, because I do
It's just that I suck so bad at tests
They tweak me out a bit
Hmm.
I have to take my car to the auto body shop
Why?
Because the oh-so smart driver
Of a striping company accidentally dropped
A five gallon bucket of white paint off of the back of the flat bed truck
It hit a black mustang and went all over the road
I went around it as much as I possibly could
But it still went all over the passenger side of the car
=(
I was going to take the car Monday
But I stayed up Rich's house
And I came home too late today
So I guess I'll take it tomorrow
...
Oh!
Monday when my gram picked me up
From school I went to put the backpack in the back
Of the car, and I leaned, and the weight of the bag pulled me down
And I hit the back of my head, slightly behind and below my right ear
And it's all swollen and funny colored
It sucks...To say the least
Anyway, I'm getting tired...
I'm out...Like a fat kid in dodgeball

So it's been a week...
Not much has happened
Last weekend was nice
=)
Spent the whole time with Rich
Then came home on Sunday
I was sick...
I felt so nasty
I was supposed to work Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday
None of which I worked
How am I supposed to support myself
When I can't get any hours?
It's ridiculous
=\
School's pretty good though
=)
I volunteered my arm in the phlebotomy lab today
And, well...
I wish I hadn't
My arm is still hurting me, and I had my blood drawn
Around 10:30-ish this morning
Ugh.
I see Rich tomorrow
And you have no idea how I'm looking forward to that
Oh!
I talked to my job placement guy, Tony
And I told him that I planned on moving to Maryland
After I graduate, and asked if he could find me a job there
And he said yes!
So, I'm planning on getting a job in PA, saving money and going to MD
I was looking at an apartment
But I don't know if I'll be making too much money
To live there
It's super cute, too
=)
Either way, I'll find a way to make everything to work out
Just you watch!
Hmm.
Anyway, I'm gonna go do...Something.

I went back home on 7/5/09
Rich ended up driving me home
He and Brandon wanted to come up for a go-cart
My gram and I went up to my aunt's house for more fireworks
=)
My two cousins
Donny and Jagger
Came up from Florida on 7/15/09
They stayed until 8/18/09
My graduation party was 7/18/09
It was amazing
There was about 60-70 people there
DJ, open bar, cake...Etc.
Rich stayed over my house that night
He rode his bike from the party to my house
Rich, Nick, Autum, Donny and Jagger
All stayed at my house the night of my grad party
=)
After that nothing happened
I started college on 8/3/09
Yeah...I didn't think I was going, either
I'm taking up
ECG, Phlebotomy, and Lab Assistant Technician
=)
It's nice knowing that I'm not going to be a loser
Rich and I have been spending the weekends together
Since I turned 18
We missed a week or two, but the principle is the same
I can't wait until we move in together...
After I graduate college
=)
My first semester is finished
I have an A, B+ average
It's kick ass
=)
Rich gave me some money
And I got a laptop today
=)
It's pretty sweet
He also gave me this wonderful cold
=(
It's killing me!
I still love him, though
More than anything
Well, I can't breathe anymore
I'm down like the economy
- Location:Home
- Mood:

I've been busy.
The next thing that happened since my last post was prom
5/29/09
Rich went with me
And to be honest, we had a good time
The appetizers were amazing, but the main course?
Yuck.
We danced together, and it was nice
I wore a champagne dress that was corseted
And his tux was black, and the accents matched my gown
We took my car to prom
Afterwards we hung out together
...
6/4/91
Was my 18th birthday
=)
It was nice
My gram got me 18 presents
Gave me $18.00
And took me out to eat
=)
That weekend, since Rich wasn't here on my birthday
He took me out to eat and took me to see The Hangover
=) It was funny
I ended up spending the weekend with him
=)
6/12/09
Was my graduation
Talk about a weird feeling
I felt overwhelmed
It was crazy
I did it...
I actually did it.
No more stupid school for me
None.
My dad and Mary, and my Gram and Rich/his mom
All got me roses I ended up putting them in a pickle jar
XD
Rich came with his mom
=)
I was so happy
My dad and Mary were there
My gram, and my two aunts
My cousin was there, but she was hanging out
=O)
That night Rich and I went camping up on the property
It was nice...
So peaceful
=)
Bear kept jumping into the pond
Ha ha
Then we went back to his house on Saturday
I stayed the night again
Then went home on Sunday
6/28/09-7/5/09
I went down to Maryland with Rich on 6/28
I spent the entire week with him
Oddly enough, I didn't get homesick
I missed my family and everyone here
But down there...
I was in the middle of nowhere
And it was quiet
And serene
=)
Nobody bothers anyone
So nice
On 7/2/09
Rich's aunt, his dad and Jon came down
Then everyone else came on 7/3-7/4
Everyone gave $10.00 for fireworks
And the boys lit them off
They were pretty awesome
I ended up getting ashes in my eye
And my left eye went bloodshot and rejected my contact
----Finish Later----

Yeah, so about a half hour ago
I just got out of lunch and I was in the bathroom
I was fixing my face and talking to Jess
Then the fire alarm behind her started going off
Flashing and everything
I just kinda stood there and looked at her
I thought about taking my books then decided to leave them there
My purse was already on my shoulder
At first we thought it was a drill
Then we thought some more
They don't do drills at lunch time
And nobody knew it was coming
So it wasn't a drill at all
=\
Jess and I went out the closest door possible and stood out there
We saw Argento and talked to her
She didn't know what was going on either
She said that they don't do unannounced fire drills
Especially at lunch
Hmm.
Then all we heard was fire alarms and sirens
Some people heard the sirens, others didn't
Then we start going back in
Looking around thinking
"What the hell?"
Then I went into Argento's room
And then we came to the L2L Lab
And I went for a walk
I found out what happened
Nick pulled the alarm
I don't understand because he was supposed to graduate with us
I heard he did it because he was mad at the gym teacher
The other reason was he was just joking and didn't mean to pull it
But it doesn't matter
Q-Bear is mad
And so is the WAPD
XD

Las weekend
Not the one that just went by, the one before it
I went down to Maryland to see Rich
His aunt and cousin and her boyfriend went
They brought Spit, their dog
She's a pitbull and Boxer mix
She's beautiful
Anyway
Everything was going just fine
But when we came to a Y in the road
I suggested that we turn left
She stopped for a second, then decided she was going the right way
Long story short, I was right
=)
We got a little lost
But Gary came to get us
=)
So it was all okay
When we got there
I went up into Rich's room
I put the ice cream and chocolate milk I got him
On the side table next to his bed
I was in such a pissy mood
I opened his window and got some fresh air
Saturday was pretty cool
Rich rode me on his dirtbike
I admit I was a little nervous and I had to keep telling myself
That he knows what he's doing
He raced, and got awards for stuff like that
I still didn't let him go too fast on it
Ha ha
=o)
We went goat chasin'
All I wanted to do was pet Willy
I ate from my hands a few times
But I wanted to touch him
So the four of us chased him and cornered him
I got him some oats and started petting him
=)
It made me smile
Then we went in and ate
Suzi made dinner
And it was really good
I did the dishes...Again
=)
I didn't mind
Then we played Crap Out
Gary won
Again
=)
Sunday
Rich made me breakfast
Eggs
They were good
=)
Mmmhmm
Then he and Brandon decided they wanted to buy a go cart
From Joe's [Amanda's boyfriend] friend
And it was up where I live
So Rich took me home
=)
...
But not too long into the trip
Maybe 10 mins
We smelled something
Rich's speaker was smoking
I stupiditly put my purse on Rich's amp
And for whatever reason, the speaker started to smoke
I blew it out
And I felt terrible
=(
I broke his toy
And surprisingly
He didn't yell at me
I was amazed
The ride up was nice
He thought about taking Skinner back down with him
Then he decided not to
He just went up to see him
I missed him as soon as I got out of the truck
</3
The week went by
Missed 2 1/2 days
Then this weekend
I picked up Rich from his aunt and uncle's house
Bud didn't come in
Even though it was Mother's Day
I was surprised
Took him up his house
We ordered pizza from Antonio's
It was awesome
It was chicken wing pizza
=)
I had to go pick it up
Rich was cutting the lawn with Sam
Then Rich's brother Gary and his dad came back
Talked for a little bit
Watched some TV
Then I went home
Saturday
My gram left for Lancaster around 8:00AM
So I cleaned up my room and left
I don't know why, but I didn't eat
When I got up Rich's he wanted to go get his license
He lost his old one
So he decided he wanted to take Dobie and Skinner with us
I said okay if we cleaned out the car
Because of all the dog fur
We had an agreement
Well, he took a wrong turn, and we stopped at my house
So I can put food in my belly
I got some chips
I didn't even want them
I wasn't hungry
=(
I had to eat though
So I did
Skinner kept jumping from the front to the back
Back and forth and driving me insane
My allergies were acting up really bad
But then I got over it
We dropped the dogs off
Then we went to Burger King
Then to the car wash
Rich vacuumed it out
=)
Brian showed up outta nowhere
Scared the hell out of me
Ha ha ha
We all started talking for a bit
I was wiping out the inside of the car
Then I was done
We went back to Rich's house
And I cleaned the outside of the car
Tires and all
I even went under the hood
=)
Then I went upstairs with Rich
We watched more TV
And just sat on the couch
Fell asleep on the couch
Woke up to Skinner yelping
I guess Dobie bit him because he irritated him
But he was okay
Then I went home
Got stopped at a field sobriety checkpoint
I was good
=)
Then went I got home I was looking to make sure
I had everything
I noticed this shiny blue thing
It was Rich's cellphone
He left it in there
So
Yesterday
I woke up and went to church because it was Mother's Day
Then I took Rich's phone to him
Then dropped him off to leave
He gave me $20.00
I only needed $5.00 for gas
But I got my gram presents with the extra money
I put his and Holly's name on the card, along with mine
I got her a balloon and I tied it to Holly's collar
I wanted her to walk over to her with it
But it got stuck in my doorway and scared her to death
She ripped it off and then hid
My cousin Nick was there
We hung out all day
We went to my grandparent's house to say happy mother's day
Then he took me to the cemetery to see my mom
I had to call Rich to get a general idea of where she was
=)
He was right
Then we went to get the car
Then we went to my house
On the dike
Had a fire then back to my house and he went home
I have work today
They're probably going to call me off, though
I still need to get my check either way
I'm tired
Once my senior project is over
And my finals are done
The rest of this year is a joke
Ha ha ha
I don't know
I still need to pass Ecology
We'll see

Let's start with last week
Friday I took the bus up to Rich's and took clothes with me
We were supposed to go camping
Rich, Brandon and I
Rich got home
We waited for Brandon to eat
Then I said I was hungry so Rich ordered me wings
And he got a salad
It took forever for them to get there
He was not satisfied at all with his salad
He called back and said he wanted a new one
After waiting forever again
They gave him a new one, and we had to give them the other one
It was nasty
I finished my wings
The new salad was better, but not great
So we were waiting and waiting
Nothing
Rich tried calling him, no answer
Then Rich got a call
Bud's car exploded
There was a leak in the gas line and it went BOOM
I felt terrible
=(
So I stayed there
Saturday morning Rich came in a woke me up
He said the entire left side of his upper jaw hurt
We went to the store they only had Orajel
Then we went to CVS to get Anbesol
Neither of them worked until Rich layered them on
Then we got back to his house and he made me eggs
And they were awesome
=)
I played God of War for a little bit
Then we went down to the garage to see the Rambler
(Bud's car)
It was crispy
I felt terrible
He said he saw smoke and flames under the hood and he got out
Within 30 seconds the car was gone
=(
Then we went back to Rich's house
Hung out and then he took me home
Nothing happened during the week...
Friday I went up Rich's
He had to bring his truck in to get in inspected
=)
He did, and it passed
I was just about to eat
The food was all heated up and everything
My cell rings
It was Rich
Skinner took off
The door was opened and he ran up the mountain
I wasn't able to eat or change
I just got in the car and flew up there
As soon as I got there
I went up the mountain
I was wearing a skirt with the sewn in shorts, a tank top, and flip flops
=o)
That must've been funny to watch
I went up and yelled for him
It was so hot
It felt like I was gonna die
Rich told me to come down already
He was gone, there was no use looking for him
I didn't want to
I told Rich he wasn't lost, he was just hiding
Rich decided to come up the mountain and get me
When he did
He saw something out of the corner of his eye
Guess who it was?
It was Skinner just hanging out on a rock
We're guessing he got up there
And when he looked down he didn't know how to get off
So Rich and Jon ran up and I decided that I was more likely
To get hurt with my flip flops on
So I took them off
A log rolled onto my right foot
And something happened to my left one
it's a little swollen, but nothing serious
Then Jon left
Rich and I pulled a tick off of Bear's head
Then gave him a bath
He just stood there and let us squirt him with the hose
It was so hot, I thinki t felt good
Skinner on the other hand...
He hated the hose and wanted nothing to do with it
He got a bath anyway
=)
Later Rich and I went to Perkins
He got me Shrimp Trio
It came with three different kinds of shrimp, rice, and cheese fries
It was great
I didn't want Rich to waste his money, so I piled in as much as I possibly could
We went to Wal-Mart
My stomch was gurgling, but I didn't say anything
We got the dogs flea and tick treatment
And Skinner a new toy
We went back to Rich's house
Rich was going a little fast and there's bump and hills
I felt it coming up
I was gagging and Rich kept asking me if I wanted him to pull over
And he told me I better not throw up in his truck
We got to the end of 92 and I told him to pull over
He did, I was in a rush I put my flips flops on the wrong feet and just lost it
There was still lots of food in my belly, but not too much
I told Rich my stomach is like a tire
You put as much air as possible in it, but if you put in too much
It'll blow
He said it was like a balloon
We got to his house and gave Skinner his toy
And put the medication on him
I told Rich it was funny because
Every time something happens to Skinner, he gets toys for it
=)
He didn't care
So I went home
I saw my legs/feet and how messed up they got
I have cuts and scratches and bruises
It looks like my legs went through a war
Yesterday it was about 92 degrees
I went down my grandparent's and helped bring their air conditioner down
I brough down my aunt and uncle's and when I got home I brought down ours
And put them in
I brought down 5 and put in 4
Lucky me
I have work today
And I also get paid
So...
Peace Ninja

We gave Skinner a bath

He was so clean and smelled good
Rich was getting ready to take a shower
So we could go to the movies
He wanted to see
The Fast and the Furious
Well, we didn't make it
We heard Skinner yelping and then I saw him running
I scooped him up and started petting his head
I talked to him and took him into the bathroom
I saw blood on his paw, but it wiped away
I assumed it wasn't his
Then Rich came in and saw him
I told him the blood wasn't Skinner's and to calm down
He yelled and asked me whose blood I thought it was
Then he told me to look at his ear
I did, and when I looked at my hand
[After touching his ear]
It was covered in blood
Then I looked down at myself
My shirt, pants, coat, boots all had blood on them
Then I took Skinner into the other room
And Rich looked at his ear
It was split
=(
It was bleeding quite a bit
We wrapped it up
Put hydrogen peroxide on it
And I told him to apply pressure, but not too much
Because he might hurt Skinner
We talked about taking him to the vet
But the vet's office was closed
And the animal hospital was opened
But they cost like $800.00
So...
The bleeding was slowing
So there were no major arteries hit
Or punctured
The bleeding slowed down more
Rich and I went into the living room
And Skinner stayed on the rocking chair in the other room
I heard him get down
That's when he went into Rich's dad's room and layed on the bed
=)
Rich and I stayed in there and then we left
I kept going in and checking on him
I was so worried
So was Rich
Then we ordered a pizza
As soon as Skinner smelled it
It was as if nothing had happened
He came prancing out and ate all the crust he was given
Then I went home
Saturday
Rich woke me up at 9:00 AM
With one hell of an attitude
I waited for my gram to get back from the Church then
Rich and I hung out at his house
Got some food
Watched TV
I played God of War
We went to Wal-Mart to see if Rich could cash his income tax check
No.
He didn't have a valid ID
He has a license but he lost it
And his old license has a hole in it so it wasn't accepted
Went back to his house
Then left to go to the movies
Jon and Brandon were gonna go anyway
So we all went together
We were gonna see the 7:50 show for
The Fast and the Furious
But of course, it sold out
We had to wait for the 9:30 show
We did
It was really windy
The movie was pretty good
A lot different from the others in the series
Then Brandon took us back to his house
Jon got his truck
I got my car
And Rich and I went to Wal-Mart to get a curling iron
For my gram
We ended up getting Skinner some new toys
And a new camo collar
=)
Skinner liked it
He didn't know which toy to go for
Then I had to leave
It was getting a bit late
I got home around 1:30 AM
And got to sleep around 2:00-2:30 AM
Yesterday
It was my cousin's birthday
I wanted to take her to a concert
But she'd rather go out to eat
So I hung out with my friend of 12 years, Nikkie
And it was a bunch of running
Back and forth
Long story short
My friend and I brought her mom home from rehab
She was there for her ankle
=)
She was gone for five months
And we brought her home
I feel happy that they're happy
Her mom ordered a pizza
For us
It was pretty good
=)
It's making me hungry
Today
I didn't want to wake up
I have work right after school, too
I have a burn on my hand that happened at work last Wednesday
It kinda sucks
I'm tired...

I haven't updated in like three weeks
Not much has happened
Rich got another raise
Making lots of money now
I got a ten cent raise
Ha ha ha
=O)
Things have been good
I failed my research paper
But I'm still passing
=)
I'm doing pretty well in all of my classes
I burned my hand last night
On the palm of my hand where your thumb is
It's a huge blister
And I just had to rip it open
Ouch.
It's about the size of a quarter
Ugh.
My chem teacher bandaged it up for me
Considering the rest of the teachers didn't have so much as a Band-Aid
...
Rich is thinking about moving back home
Details aren't needed
But there is a possibility
He first brought it up on Monday
I hope he does
I miss him so much
He wants a new car, too
A 2009 Chevy Cobalt
=)
It's pretty slick
There's two months and two days until my birthday
And I'm legal!
Sweet.
Rich and I are going to prom
=)
It's gonna be awesome
And you know it
He wants me to get a baby blue dress
But I already have literally ten gowns
And I really don't want to buy another one
I dropped my phone in the toilet last week
And it's still going!
People say my phone's a piece of tihs
But it's most definitely not
It's amazing
The best phone I've ever had
I may be getting a new job
Somewhere in the mall
A stand
Making about ten bucks an hour
It'd be awesome if I got it
Danielle is going to apply too
Um.
I see Rich tomorrow
<3
We're going to see
The Fast and the Furious
Bud wants to go too
So it'll be cool
=)

Yeah, interesting weekend
It was pretty cool
It was nice to get away from everyone down there
It's so peaceful
=)
I spent time with Rich, which was great
=)
We left Sunday to come back
I left Rich there...
=(
It made me cry
Literally...
We stopped at Crackle Barrel for some food
His aunt paid for me, which was nice
The ride back seemed easier than going down
Then nothing much happened that week
Last weekend I took Rich out for his 21st birthday
He seemed to have enjoyed himself
We went over to see Jon and Jenn's new place
It turns out to be the same house my gram and I looked at two years ago
Obviously we picked the one we're at now
This week was a bunch of nothing so far
Hmm...
I was supposed to work yesterday and today
But they called and said that they didn't need me
They were dead
Well, that's it
I'm gonna go play W.o.W. now
=o)

Where to start...?
Well the week of Valentine's Day I was deathly sick
I had pneumonia/bronchitis so I literally lived in my bed
It sucked.
=(
Then Friday came
And I was still a bit unhealthy
But Rich made me feel much better
<3
We hung out Friday and cuddled
Saturday we went shopping
It was V-Day and he got me a dancing/singing dog
And a card
And since I was sick
And my belly wasn't agreeing with me
He got me Gatorade and unsalted french fries
=)
He's so sweet
Then we went to his house
And cuddled and watched TV
Then Jon came up
And we all watched Hitman
Then I went home
The rest of the week I was still a little sick
I didn't have school Monday
Then I had work a few days
Then Friday came again
He brought his Heavy Chevy home
I took the bus to his house after school
Then after his little nap we went to Jon and Jenn's
I ended up sleeping over
I was lucky enough to get the couch
=) Ha ha ha
Jon put in Madagascar 2
It was cute
=)
The boys were up playing San Andreas until 5:00AM
I attempted to sleep
No such luck
Then Madison was up around 4:00AM
Jon brought her out into the living room
So then Jon turned off the TV
And I was able to get a little sleep
Then I woke up the next morning
Well, technically a couple hours later
More of a nap than a night's sleep
Ha ha ha
Jenn made pancakes
I had a big one and it was yummy
Then the boys went to go get Rich's taxes done
Then later Rich and I went back to his house
He wanted to see Skinner
=)
He took a nap on the couch
Actually, he just fell asleep
His dad took me home
Sunday he called me at 7:00AM
Woke me up
But it's okay
<3
He said he was leaving around 11:00
And he did
He called me when he got down there
Which was around 2:00
=)
Today I went to school
Came home
Ate like a piggy
Then went down my aunt and uncle's
I got home at 9:00
And here I am now
I'm gonna go take a shower
Then go to bed

So...
We had snow days Wednesday and Thusday last week
Which was great considering I'm sick
I have the flu
I'm guessing
I was coughing and coughing
Last night
I threw up a bit
It wasn't pretty at all
My chest hurts like you wouldn't believe
My abdominal muscles hurt
I just need a new body
Plain and simple
=\
My weekend was good though
Rich and I hung out
We made chicken fajitas
And they were good
Then Rich decided he wanted another one
I said make sure you put it in the fridge when you're done
He left it on the table
Skinner found his way onto a chair and all four paws onto the table
He was eating the rest of the Chicken
I guess he thought it shouldn't be wasted
Ha ha
Hmm...
I went down my aunt and uncle's house
Played WoW
I love it
It's addicting
=-P
Ha ha
Um
I'm probably going down again today
I passed my second senior project speech
I went over the mandatory 8 minutes
So, yeah, I rocked it
XD
Anyway
I have things I gotta do
So...

Today's Friday
I'm going up Rich's today
He's bringing his truck home
=)
I love it
Last night I went over my cousin's house
Made two CDs
And played Guitar Hero World Tour
It was pretty cool
I was vocals
Cassie was guitar
And Tony was drums
We rocked
=-P
At least that's what it said
I don't believe I was that great
I don't know what we're doing tonight
Probably just hang out and relax together
...
That's good though
I just wanna spend time with him
=)
We have a half day Monday
We get out at 11:00
It's pretty sweet
My knee still hurts
It sucks
And I'm coughing and feel a little congested
Ugh...
Anyway, I gotta go

Nothing much happened
I went down Rich's Friday, as usual
Then I went home
Saturday I went up again
We went shopping
I honestly wasn't in the mood for it
=-\
Then we went back to his house
Made dinner
Chicken, mashed potatoes, peas and gravy
=)
Rich, his dad, Sam and I ate
Before I put the chicken in the grease
It was raw and stupiditly I left it on the edge of the table
Skinner decided he wanted some
So he got up on his hind legs and stole a small piece of chicken
Rich found him and managed to get him to spit out the chicken
As soon as he did
Bear came up and swallowed it whole
=)
Funny puppies
Then we all sat down and ate
Then Rich and I went down Bud's
We went to WalMart
Bud put neon lights in his car
They're red and the pulse to the music
Pretty hot
Then when we were at WalMart
The boys managed to lose a 4" light
Then they took me back to Bud's
It was 10:30
Rich looked back at me
"You don't have to go right now, do you? I mean, you can stay a little longer, right?"
I stayed for another 15 minutes
I was getting tired
Then I drove home
Sunday I had work
12:00 to 4:00
I was supposed to, anyway
They ended up letting me go early
Then I went down my aunt and uncle's
We went and bought a whole bunch of food
And 5-6 movies
And we played WoW
All night
=)
Pretty cool
Monday
I didn't have school
My uncle and I went to Best Buy
I got to drive my aunt's new car
SWEET
He bought me a power pack and WoW for my computer
=)
Awesome
I felt spoiled
=-P
Then we had to take the power pack back
It wasn't the right one
So we got the right one
And now my computer works like new
=)
Yesterday I had school
Then we did a lot of running around with my aunt and my cousin
My cousin ended up sleeping over last night
Rich called me last night
He said he missed me and he was sick
Then he called me again this morning 5:00-5:30AM
Telling me he was REALLY sick and he wished I was there
=(
I felt horrible
I just wanted to go down and kidnap him from work
I can't though...
I wish I could...
Anyway, I gotta go...

So I haven't posted in a week
I worked Tuesday
Then a whole bunch of nothing
I took the bus to Rich's Friday
We went out to eat
Then to the movies
We went to see Valkyrie
It was nothing that I expected
It was more talk than action
It made Rich fall asleep
I got home around 1-2 AM
Then woke up
Met Rich at his aunt's
Then we went to his house
I ended up getting stuck there
So I had to stay
I went home Sunday
Just hung out at my house
Nothing...
My gram came to get me at noon...
Monday was nothing...
Yesterday work called me 8th period and told me I didn't have to come in
Today Pitbull might come down
=)
Tomorrow nothing...Maybe I'll go down my cousin's
Friday Rich...

Whatever
December 26
Nothing much
I think I went up Rich's house
Hung out
December 27
Again up Rich's house
I think this is the day I wasn't going to go up
But I did because he was leaving the next day
=)
Yeah, that was it
Decemeber 28
I'm not entirely sure
Decemeber 29
Don't know...Hmm
December 30
I think this is the day I took my cousin
Out and we went shopping
And we found a DVD/CD case just hanging out
All by itself
...It made it's way to the backseat of my car
Then we got McDonald's
I got some junk
I don't think I really needed it
I got a corset
Necklace
Body oil that sparkles
And liquid eye shadow
Oh, and I developed pictures, too
Took Cassie home
Then went home
Then to my aunt and uncle's
Then picked up Cassie again
She slept over
Decemeber 31-January 1
I went over Jon and Jenn's
Jon picked me up at the Turkey Hill
Then we had to get some stuff
Then went to their house
I talked to Rich a few times
He got there around 9:00-ish
He was with Brandon
Rich ordered some pizza and chicken
Made me eat
=)
We just talked all night
And the boys played the PS2
I talked to Jenn
=)
The ball dropped
I was dumb enough to miss it
'Cause I'm retarded
=(
Then went to bed
Rich gave me his T-Shirt to sleep in
(It's so unfair girls have to wear tops, but guys don't.)
Then woke up and went up Rich's
I had to go home early to eat with my gram
It's a tradition
I got there, SHE ALREADY ATE!
Ugh.
So I took a shower and relaxed
January 2
Went down my cousin's for a bit
Then waited for a call from my gram
Then went up Rich's
We watched
Stay Alive and Wedding Crashers
We didn't have enough time to finish Wedding Crashers
He took me home
We stopped at McDonald's on the way home
We got 2 20-pc nuggets, yeah, that's 40 nuggets
He also got a snack wrap and I got a diet coke with lemon
January 3
Rich went back at 7:00AM
Early this week
I forget why
But he did
I went down my cousin's house
Slept over
January 4
Texted Jenn and told her Hapy Birthday
Hung out some more
Went home around 6:00
Today
School!
Ugh.
Got up early and drove to this hell-hole
6 months and I'm DONE!

I had work all week last week
Friday I went to Rich's
=)
We just enjoyed each other's company
It was nice
We went out to eat
=)
At first I wasn't hungry
Then when he was eating, I realized that I was
=O)
Then we went back to his house
Then I went hime
Saturday he picked me up
We went Christmas shopping
Toys 'R' Us
Wal*Mart
Steve $ Barry's
And somewhere else...I forget
Then we went to his house
I wrapped the presents
I'm not even going to get into that
Believe me, it's not worth the energy to type it
Then Rich and I watched TV
And ended up falling asleep on the couch
Skinner (the puppy) somehow found his way on top of me
Without waking me up
Then I heard snoring
I guess that's what woke me up
Skinner snoring in my right ear and Rich in my left
Ha ha
I love them both so it's okay
I couldn't help but to smile
We went down Jon and Jenn's for a bit
Rich and Jon played the PS2
Then we went back to Rich's
Cuddled
=)
Then I went home
