… until I get to see my parents again!!
By that time it will have been 2 years since I’ve seen them. Again, far far too long. They will be here from May 3rd – May 17th and I absolutely cannot wait. It’s nice having something to look forward to like this. It also gives me some motivation to get off my ass and finish the painting around the house and other things that need to be done before they get here.
The winter seems to be going by quickly, and we haven’t really had any horrible winter weather. Yeah it’s been grey and gloomy like mostly every other winter but I don’t remember the freezing rainy weather of past winters. Before I know it, it will be spring .. my batteries will be recharged, my family will be here… *Sighs happily*
Been watching the American Idol tryouts and I can’t say I’ve seen anyone with any real promise it. Although, we probably won’t see that until they get to Hollywood and are really tested.
Again, been thinking about what the heck I want to do here work/study-wise. I’ve even been thinking of trying to go back to my old job here doing market research, only part time. I think I might hate it a bit less if I’m not spending 40 hours a week doing it. Also, I wonder if I might have tried to jump in too quick back then. I was feeling even more crap then than I am now and tried to take on this job full time, might have been a mistake. Plus, with the turnover in that place there must be new people in charge by now haha Hopefully that scary Scottish guy is gone. I still have to think on it though… I really did hate that place, but I can’t deny as much as I hated it, it felt great to earn my own money. I know their minimum hours you can work per week is 12, even if I started out at the minimum to see. Bah I dunno. Getting paid to get told off all day isn’t really the best job a gal like me could go for, but I don’t see a lot of other options.
I have a confession to make… this weekend I took down my Christmas tree. Yes, it was up that long. I considered leaving it up and decorating it with hearts and stuff and just making it a valentine’s day tree .. until I could decorate it with eggs and make it an Easter tree… but that seemed a little too nutty .. (No, I didn’t seriously consider that, it was a joke to try to deflect from the fact that I was a lazy cow and took my tree down almost a month late)
Bailey is sitting here next to me on the sofa, asleep propped up against a blanket that is bunched up on the other end. He looks so adorable I just want to kiss him. I can’t imagine what mothers must feel like with their children if I feel this much for a dog. Hopefully one day in this lifetime I’ll know what that feels like.
I gave him a wee bit of a haircut yesterday because he hasn’t gone to the dog groomer in far too long. I just cut around his eyes so he could see because he was looking a little bit like a mop… I don’t think I’ll have a career in dog grooming anytime soon. Let’s just put it that way.
