Well that just rocked my sock drawer! - Mood:Good

Tuesday August 30 200510:20:16 AM |

I wish they had a very AWAKE face. So last afternoon/evening around 5:00, I was watching TV and nearly fell asleep. I decided I would call it early, and I would head to bed around 8:00. I didn't even make it to 8:00. I do believe I only made it to around 7:30 before I crashed, and by 8:30 I was passed out cold. So I slept...hard...until 9:00. Score. This has been the first time in a LONG time since I've done that. Now I have some nice bags under my eyes. Is 12-ish hours of sleep just not enough? The BEST news of the morning though? I SOLD MY FORTRAN BOOK!!! That's right--$60. I needed that money. I'm sorry there's no real gossip in here, and there's no drama.

Darth Vader says: *loud breathing* I like Cheese-Its - Mood:Sad

Monday August 29 20055:45:37 PM |

A little boy (3 years old maybe?) said this Saturday evening after Trav's live-draft. It was adorable. He was hyped on sugar though, so it wasn't so strange. Aftr seeing a greyhound at the PetSmart Adoption Saturday, I've decided I want one. Of course I'm sure I want one of everything after awhile. It's the type of day/week/month where you feel like you should just stop trying. It's just not worth it. Blah. Bad mood Angi is never a good Angi to be. I did make pumpkin bread last night, and it's damn tasty this morning. And afternoon. In fact that was my lunch. I need a movie--a good movie. Or sleep. Or both.

Ba BOOM! - Mood:Ashamed

Friday August 26 200512:48:54 PM |

Last night I tried to go to bed early--like the good little student that I am. I couldn't. I was too hot. So I chatted onliine for a bit when I heard a noice. A car? No...A person? No....FIREWORKS! Of COURSE! Well those sure woke up me. After going to sleep 2 hours after I said I could already be in a coma, I was happy. Blissful. I was going to wake up early and go swimming. 6 AM rolls around, and I'm in the middle of a dream about to eat biscuits and gravy. My window is open. Wouldn't you know there was a HUGE clap of thunder right outside my window. Scared the CRAP out of me!! I was very awake after that! Didn't go swimming though. Lightning, so I've heard, isn't good when you are in a pool ;) In other news, I am enjoying 4 of my 6 classes. I mean REALLY enjoying them. Most of them are relgion classes, and that is why I'm enjoying them the most. The point of this journal is lacking. Upps.

You know, in California they would call this a hurricane! - Mood:Good

Wednesday August 24 200511:59:44 PM |

That's right kiddies, it's raining. Actually it's a storm, but there is mucho rain and wind involved. Oh, and I should mention the lightning. Of course the lightning! Such a lovely thing caused me to rewrite my first writing assignment for class. Oh lovely, isn't it? I'm sure you'll all be happy to know that classes are going quite well. I already had to drop a class, but who needs a class where the average is a C? Not me, that's for sure! Sister is doing well at college, which is nice to hear. She calls me about every day and we chat about it all. It's really nice to have a sister to do that. I put on a new slip-cover for my sofa! I am so proud. :) The old one was complete and utter crap. There were even spiders living in it!! But now it's nice and pretty, and the room is looking more like a room. I have decided that until I find my flashlight, I'm going to use my cell phone and just keep pressing random buttons for light.

Say wha? - Mood:Good

Tuesday August 23 20054:08:25 PM |

I have FINALLY solved the problem with the post office. I FINALLY got my mail. I should really do that more often I think ;) I had so much freaking mail that it was crazy! The bills were in it. I'm having to recalculate one because it seems MUCHO higher than the contract I signed. $77 for DSL and a land line--no long distance, no voicemail, no caller ID. I don't even USE it right now. I paid $60 for it last time, and that was with a $30 service fee. So me thinks something is amiss. Oh well. In OTHER news, classes started. On the one hand they are both in the same room and by the same prof. On the other hand they are by a prof who is one of the toughest on campus. WEEEE!! Oh! I FINALLY found an invitation I enjoy. :) It's caught my eye. AND I am applying for a job today in an hour. I hope. I'm crossing my fingers for this one.

The next step? I have no idea...eat? Sleep? - Mood:Sad

Monday August 22 20055:34:27 PM |

Well this bites. And yes, this does warrant a second journal. So I went to the USPS this afternoon around 1:00, right? I was told I could get a NEW key to my mailbox. Last week I was fine without it. Now I NEED to get those bills paid. They told me to come back at 4:30 to pick it up. So I went at 4:15. They told me I was SOL, and now I have to call between 8-4 (wasn't I THERE?) to figure out what's wrong. Basically they don't know where my new key went off to. It's missing. Gone. And I am tired of this. Maybe it's hormones. Maybe it's just my day. Or week. I don't know. I am so stumped. What would YOU do?

You know you`re in yrouble when you get 17 books for 4 classes - Mood:Frightened

Monday August 22 20053:40:41 PM |

And I still books for one more class! I may actually top $400 this year. I've already spent $389 on those freaking books. Good bye social life! The only moments I will spend with Trav shall be used to read. Blah! As fearful of this semester I may be, the truth of the matter is that summer is over and this is the LAST year I spend in undergraduate work. WOOO!! Still no key to the mailbox. It's such a drama, I tell you. It seems they are changing my locks, AGAIN. Why? No idea. I have to go back in two hours to get the key. I hope. Anyone want to help bring my crap out of my car and into my apartment? I'll bake cookies... Anyway, I'm kind of on a YT burnout. It seems everytime I log in there is an overwhelming tidal wave of idiocy. I suppose what can you do? In other news my sister moved into college. I was worried about her, but it seems she is fitting in JUST fine. :)

Wednesday August 17 20055:35:58 PM |

I need to rant. Bitch. Moan. Groan. You get it. So this apartment has been a hoot since I've signed the lease in June. --The shower didn't work --Couldn't get DSL to work --DEADBOLT DIDN'T WORK (AND they didn't fix it for many weeks) --Bugs, bugs, and more bugs ...and then a lot of little things. It's survivable, right? I was fine with it until they changed the lock on my freakin' mail box. The stupid thing is 50 yards away and I can't open it. I got a note on my door last week saying the apartment needed to use my key to make a copy of it, and I needed talk to the USPS about a new box key. Went to the USPS. Gave them my key. Asked them to give them a new key. They said they changed it a long time ago (duh). Was I given a warning? NO. Could I GET a warning if they mailed it? NO. Now I can't get it for another week or so because they have verify everything. And yes I'm fully aware it could be worse. Spare me that lecture.

Take one, pass it around...in other words, I`m entering another contest - Mood:Good

Tuesday August 09 20054:42:21 PM |

THIS contest is for Animal Planet this time around. Winner gets a safari vacation, which seems like a sweet deal. This time the contest is ONE picture of an animal. Any animal. Humans can be in it, but the main focus should be the animal. So I have 4 pictures. Which is the BEST, in your opinion? And no, these haven't been cropped or adjusted yet. #1. #2. #3. #4.

Round up the usual suspects - Mood:Sad

Monday August 08 20058:05:43 PM |

Frustrating, frustrating, frustrating. That's all I have to say about this day. I had my mole removed, which was fun. That side of my head is now numb, which is fun too. The headache is not so fun. I convinced my dad they had to shave half of my hair. That was fun too. Other then this? Not so fun. My sister is raising a hissy fit. I bought her a ticket to the Ben Fold's concert because she loves him. She got pissed at me because I wouldn't let her stay at my apartment. Reason? My apartment is 45 minutes from KC. This would mean I (or we if Travis joined me) would have to LEAVE by 7:00 to make it to church by 8:00. Plus I don't have a spare key, and it's just not feasable. And that has ticked her off. Basically I'm supposed to be indifferent about everything and want nothing special. My sister throws a hissy about everything, and my mom attacks me on everything. This is NOT helping my stomach.

I can't sleep when I should anymore. Doesn't that just bite the big one. Instead I'm buying shirts off the web. And then I whore them on here. Why? Because I can. And Trav is already asleep. I mean seriously, how can you NOT want these?

Trav just stopped by and brought flowers and a card. Only stayed for 5 minutes and then drove another 45 minutes back. Amazing. Anyway, there's a contest I (actually we) are potentially going to enter. Of the next group of pictures, would you PLEASE pick your top 3? (And YES these are from the cruise therefore they are repeats) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Diamonds ARE a girls best friend.....aka ATTACK OF MULLET MAN - Mood:Happy

Tuesday August 02 200512:04:31 PM |

So last night I went to Walmart--I needed food for the next 2 weeks, so I got some things. Then I went to fill in gas. Now I realize that Ottawa (KS) isn't the best of all towns. BUT... The cashier was a man with a mullet, hence the name mullet man. And he hit on me. This is a rare happening since being with Trav, but it happens all the same. Before when someone asked my number and I explained I was very happy in love, the reply was always along the lines of "let me have your phone number just in case you want some REAL fun" Now? I use the magic word of "fiance" and show a little bit of the bling-bling, and that's the end of it. It's wonderful! The power...MAUAHAHA! :) I can blame planning on a wedding AND PMS on being a complete bitch. I can be happier than happy...and say it's all because of Trav. I tell you, this is the TRUE power!

I GOT A JOB!!! Last night at my radio final, my prof came to me and asked me if I would be interested working for a radio station. It sounded interesting enough, plus I need money. It's a sports talk radio. SPORTS. Trav's favorite. Working the operating board. That's right...I'll be working here. I called my dad, since my mom and sister aren't picking up their phones. Hehehehe he was in the middle of surgery. That was fun. It was broadcast over the whole room! Now this may not seem much to many folk, but for me this is HUGE. I've been trying to get a job for ages. And now I have one.

Hi. I'm in a great mood. How about you? :) Last night's "Singing the Rain" was AMAZING and best of all? I was able to make sure that Trav was okay. :) He smiled, and that's what I wanted to see! I swear that I'm going to go find a field to leap and froilic through. That shouldn't be so hard in Kansas

Do I LOOK like I care?! - Mood:Happy

Monday July 25 20051:51:10 PM |

Overall I'm in a great mood. A REALLY great mood! My paper is going well, despite having people mess with me all the time. Now I need to just vent my raaaage against being so kind. I have a friend we'll call her Kay. She LOVES to talk. A LOT. Once Trav and I became engaged, she has been OBSESSSED with getting married. She has a 'boyfriend' she met over the net and has met physically once for three days. 8 months ago or so, after knowing each other a week, he proclaimed his love for her. That's fine--whatever works for you. She's moving to Colorado. EVERYTHING REVOLVES AROUND THAT. She wants a ruby engagement ring...oookay? No comment. She wants Trav and I to get the rubberband bracelets with the wedding info printed on them. She spends a LOT of time talking to me about how Kansas is trying to make it impossible for her to move to live with Joe. I swear if she mentions him once more I am going to scream. All I want to do is write my paper!

I can never tell if people who write "Advise" on their subjects really mean "advise" or "advice." Oh well. SO I'm in a class called Christian thought. I have a final paper to write, and I need to get some input as to how much sense this is going to make. This doesn't mean you have to be Christian, it's just whether it makes sense. Oh, and the topic sentence really isn't going to be the one I use. It's the first draft of it. TS: "Throughout the history of the world, whether told by the Bible or seen in nature, there is a hierarchy of power; there remains the question as to who has the ultimate power?" Questions to answer: --Man over Nature? --Freewill over God? --Nature over Man? --Where does death come into play? Explains of some theories:

What do they call it? Oh yeah...CRAZY! - Mood:Anxious

Wednesday July 20 20056:56:43 PM |

So the good news is...is that I have made dinner, cleaned up the place (or at least 1/2 of the place), shaved (without the use of a shower...only cut myself once!), and took a nap. The bad news? The 6:00 ETA for the youth group has been extended to 7:00. AAARGH! I hate the last hour of waiting for people. You know when you are SO close yet SO far away? Yeah, that's me. CRAZY! Anyone have any ideas as to how to make pasta last an extra hour if not more? So far I have it on ultra low heat, and the alfredo sauce is still trying to come together. I was going to pick up some wine (now that I am legally able to do so), but I figured if Trav wanted alcohol, he would have beer. I won't stop 'im! This isn't one of those threads for any one of the following: 1) Shut up, it could be worse 2) Poor thing...I'm so sorry! No, it's just me going CRAZY!

Let`s sip some Mint Julep on the front porch - Mood:Happy

Wednesday July 20 200510:45:37 AM |

So it stormed yesterday, and I got to see first hand the experiences of losing electricity while I was getting dressed. Yesterday it was 72* for the majority of the day until it shot up to 94* with an 80% humidity. Lord have mercy! Today the heat index will be around 110* and I am ready to just give up and relax on the front porch with a nice refreshing beverage! That would be nice. SO nice. In other news...Trav is coming home today! Wooooo! I meet him at 6:00. More wooooooo! :) Life is good. Very good. :)

You know when they talk about the bad stuff and how it blind-sides you at the random moments? This is one of them. I just got a call from Travis, which is surprising as is. If you don't know, they are in Mexico right now building a home for a needy family. So much has gone wrong. I don't know whether or not I'm at liberty to tell details, but... they need prayers. They need you to pray for them, think of them...whatever YOU do. They've made it through the building, but now it is the culmination of other events that have made it difficult.

For once this isn't about bugs of ANY kind! WOOOO! This weather is bugging me since it's SO humid! It's 70% humidity out there, and in the lower 90s. How you folks in the Southern US do it is beyond me! It's so miserable! And MAN am I whiny today! Sorry. Oh well. I can tell there's a pressure change, mainly because my shoulder is aching. Whenever the pressure changes, I can feel it where I had my surgery. Anyway, tried to talk with my mom in a nice manner. We didn't part in such a way, but I tried. And she called me fat. Blah. That's no fun! So I'm not going to call her until next week. Maybe then she'll be better. I'm not going to take it to heart!

One of those BIG ones. Freaked me out for a second though. These biotches are GOIN' DOWN!!! I was able to spend time with Trav's parents, which was nice. :) I made his mom laugh, which is good!!!

Die, Silverfish...DIE! - Mood:Ashamed

Saturday July 16 200510:08:33 PM |

I killed a silverfish in my apartment last Wednesday, and now I just killed one in Trav's apartment (where I'm at right now to go to church as well as to clean up/use his TV). Well I didn't really KILL it--I more so just sprayed it with hairspray and water until it died. So, I have a question... Are silverfish like spiders in which if you have one, you probably have a whole heap of 'em sitting around? Or is it just my luck that I've killed one here as well as one at my own place? I hate those things with all of my hating cells! AAAAAARGH! Anyway, I'm away from my parent's house which is good. It didn't go so well this afternoon because they decided to ignore what I was saying. Ended up in tears and my leaving quickly. On the plus side I did get a new phone. :) It's purtiful!

What`s your insanity? - Mood:Anxious

Friday July 15 200510:42:46 PM |

In 24 hours I'll be in KC. I just keep telling myself that! My family is veruckt. Seriously crazy. My mom has quit smoking. Yay for her, right? I know the attitude shifts, but this is just wrong. EVERYTHING WRONG IN THE WORLD IS THE FAULT OF A MAN. She also believes that God is a woman, Jesus was just a man, and only the New Testament matters because it's the "loving" part of the Bible. I am also eating the wrong food for dinner, in the wrong major, and...oh yeah, just a major screw-up. I take away from Trav and his sister talking to focus on myself. Wee. My dad thinks there are demons in the evil people of the world. My sister won't watch R rated movies, and she thinks my mom is going to hell. It's not a bad time, but it is frustrating. ARRRRRRRRRGH! I did buy "Finding Neverland" and "Curse of the Jade Scorpian" though. Not bad! In reality though, I can't wait to get out of here.
