Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

So I am in Huntsville this Thanksgiving, having a good time. Going to Ren Fest tomorrow cause 1. I dont have to work tomorrow and 2. it was yucky outside today. Although tomorrow is not looking too good either, but we shall see.


Went out last night with the Huntsville crew, good times! I miss the being able to go out with people like that, who know me so well.. almost better than I know myself, and who I can really talk to and am never left out. In Austin I feel very alone. I only have one friend and the one friend (Laurie) makes me not want to open up to her for one thing or another. I just get so annoyed with things that she does things she says, things she believes, the fact that she cannot deal with silence of any kind... but with people like Misty, we can be perfectly happy not talking for hours... or talking about everything non-stop for hours. We are on the same wave length and think the same things and ... I dont feel like I am being judged when I am with her... and I feel like she listens to what I say ... Laurie... (I kept count) she went a whole month of seeing me without ONCE asking how I was doing... there is something seriously wrong in that.

I love it in Austin, for the change of scenery and the job field... but the lack of friends gets to me sometime. Especially after spending good quality time with Huntsville friends and the ones that I am most comfortable around. BUT...I must be THANKFUL for what I have. A great job, well two great jobs, a roof over my head, awesome pets, and a good neighbor(Laurie), AND friends out there somewhere that I know love me and wish me well and are praying for me.

He's not dead after all...

Well good news and bad news... the water in my upstairs neighbors apartment stopped running yesterday (1st time in a little over a week) bad news... I think he WAS dead and now whoever is up there is cleaning up the body. Cause they have been moving around there for an hour or so now this morning (its only 8:30). I heard what sounded like them squeegying(
Other than that... I had a great 4th of July, Schleif came to visit me! Hung out with me and my friends, watched fireworks, was my excuse to not go and see Brian. YAY! Yeah so we were all out having a great time and I get a text-i-poo from Brian "Hey I just got back into town and I was wondering if you wanted to come over and watch a movie" (which of course is code for sex) Well I replied gracefully: "Well I have a friend in town, and he is staying with me, in my bed". He replied back with "that was a low-blow, didnt need to know all that, Just kidding. Have a good time". To which I said... "I will". Idiot. What does he expect?! Me to be waiting by the phone desperately waiting for him to call me so I can rush to his side to be his late night booty call?!! Not so romantic in my book. Not really going to swoon over that.

Well.. I am going to try to go back to sleep again... for a few more hours.. I only slept 3 last night.

Whistle while you work!

Too much to do and not enough sleep to function. For some reason I have not been able to sleep the past week or so, as much as I am used to.. or as much as any normal person is used to in that case. I went to bed last night around 3 ish, and then woke 2 hours later in a panic. I shot straight up and stared at my bedroom door like someone was about to walk through it. My heart was racing and everything, I have yet to be able to go back to sleep. And I have things to do and I know that my mind wont let me sleep till it is all done. ...Maybe I can take some of my hydrocodone cough syrup.. let that knock me out for a bit!

Also, my upstairs neighbor's water has been running in his bathroom for the past week... is this serious? should I tell my landlord? Or is it just me being weird cause i have seen too many Law and Order episodes? Cause I am picturing him laying in his bathtub, dead, and noone will find him until he starts to smell.... I'll tell them tomorrow...

working

At work, where I now have 2 patients. I was going to have 2 anyways... but not the same two I have now. I had a woman patient but she got here and was like "ewww! is that paint I smell? I'm allergic to paint" And she tells me that she will see if she can handle the smell, but she's not sure. And so i take her to her room and she says, "oh, it is hot in here.. do you have a fan that I can use?" "SUUUURE I'll get that for you, but here is some paper work for you to fill out blah blah blah... " and she stops me and motions me to come closer to her... I say "yes?" and she says "Can-you-get-me-a-fan?" I wanted to punch this lady! I said I would! calm down!! So I go get her stupid fan.. come back and she is saying "nope! I can't do this! I can feel my throat closing up to the fumes".... we have been here in this new building for a month and a half... I dont think the fumes hang out that long. And if they did... they are not strong enough to affect anyone... not even annoying women like her! ugh! And one of the other patients that I have was telling Matt... the guy that I was working with at first, that charging him for this was just another communist plot. He delt with it in the Cold War and now, now..... ummmm great! sounds like he will be fun. But he actually wasnt that bad. Just surprised that I was still going to hook him up like they did last time. yes sir we are still going to monitor your heart rate and brain waves... sorry if you are dumb and didnt think so. And then my last patient... the best.. is just a normal guy, 2 years older than me, drives a BMW, has a girlfriend. But I have had nooooo problems with him yet!

Other than that, I am planning on going to church tomorrow... or rather today... to this brunch thing they are having.

Then next weekend in the 4th of July... then the weekend after that I am thinking about going home to Huntsville. Cause I miss everyone there!!!

Well back to work i s'pose

whistle while you work

Looking forward to the weekend... Not just this weekend but also next weeked. Going to get to see good friends! Allison Barker and Andrew are on there way to Austin as we speak, and I am trying to work a deal so I can get off so to see my buddies! And then next weekend Schleif is coming to town to hang out explore Austin. And I will show him around and show him whats what. As long as I don't have to work.... *crosses fingers* At least I have off for the 4th... everyone does! Hooray! But it doesnt change the fact that I am down to work the 3rd... 5th... and 6th. *sigh* damnit.

I DONT HAVE TO WORK!!! Just called and asked. The deal took it, and I will cover for that tech sometime next month. WOOT WOOT!!

Well I better start picking up around here then!

Dreams

For some reason I have been having the weirdest dreams. I just had one that woke me up about 5 hours before I planned to.
It was about me, heading home to my parents to spend some time with them, and I planned to watch a movie and take a nap while I waited for them to get out of work, at their place. Well I get there and there are these 2 guys working on the yard to the left of the house, I see them but I think nothing of it. But all of the sudden the skinny black guy says something to his friend and his friend walks off, and the black guy starts walking to me. And he comes up to me and starts asking how i was doing.. but getting too close, then he grabs my bag to get me to get closer to him and I am pulling on it to get him to let go and leave me alone. And I realize that noone is around if I were to scream, cause on a weekday in my parent's neighborhood everyone is at work. But then I remember... I have this cop's card to use in case of emergency.. so somehow I pull away and I find it and look at it... it is the detective off of Law and Order:CI, the guy. And then I wake up. I think I have been watching too much of that show.
A few days ago I had this dream that I was still with Marty and I had called him and asked him if he wanted to spend the night with me. He said yeah, and asked if I could pick him up. So I went to get him... which it turns out he lived in my apartment complex. So I go to the door and he answers and says... "hang on, be right out" So I go around to the side door (didnt know apartments had side doors....)and there is Juan's old roommate.. the one that looked like a hobbit.. who stole my hydrocodone from my tonsilectomy, and he came out to say hi, then following right behind him was Juan.. in the apartment... where Marty lived.. Marty came out.. and we left.. and I woke up... freaked out.
THEN a few days before THAT, I had a dream about my mom's old boss's son (Amanda, you know who I am talking about here), I was at this church thing and he happened to be there and I remembered that I forgot something somewhere and had no way to get there... and he said "oh I'll take you" So we hop in his car and we are driving away from where we are and he rubs the small of my back... I feel it like it is real! and I got chills... the good ones. Then he puts his hand on my leg. And THEN I wake up.. UGH! Such a good... weird dream!
