Things are going to start getting interesting

I was going to write about the tv shows that I am going to watch during this summer (Dance Moms, Sweet Home Alabama, Big Rich Texas, Giuliana and Bill just to name a few) but I decided that every week I am going to write on what we are calling operation: get me a dating.

My roommate/one of my besties has come up with the great idea that me, one of our friends, and one of the girls that she works with (who I still think is not going to be down because she said not happening twice already) should go speed dating.

This is going to be interesting for many reason:

• First: my friend who is the mastermind behind this operation has a boyfriend (even though those words have never come out of his mouth, I guess it's just assumed at this point).
• Second: I am just doing this to shut her up. Part of why I moved her was to that main reason. I could be sitting in Florence right now with guys who want to hangout with me. Ok, they are in the age range I am suppose to stay away from but at least I would have options.
• Third: I really do believe that this is purely for her entertainment teven though she says its not. If I had a boyfriend and a bunch of single friend going speed dating , I would totally go just for the comedic aspects of it. We all know we would do the same

And we are not even including the fact that I enjoy asking guys random questions to see how they react them. I have done it to guys my friends like and dislike on many occasions. It's extremely funny depending on what you ask. With that being said, every week I am going to update who is reading on my friend's quest to find me a man. Its going to be like a bad sitcom because we have total opposite taste in men.

There will pictures from these escapades, so here's to whatever I'm going to call these post. I'll come up with something

Lucky Me

The Fourth of July weekend was literally the weekend from Hell.  Let's start:
On Friday I somehow ended up planning a birthday party for my roommate's friend. Then we went out knowing we were leaving for Florence at 7:30 in the a.m. Bad Idea!!!! Shot rooms are not anyones' friend.

Saturday morning did not leave at 7:30 but at almost 6:00 IN THE EVENING. Some of us (in particular me and my roommate's boyfriend) had too much fun and definitely paid for it most of Saturday. We however did get to Florence at 11:45 that night. I went to bed but, they went to the birthday party of one of his best friend's from college. Random comment but it would take my friend moving to Montgomery to end up dating not only a guy from North Alabama but a guy who went to the same college as we did.

Sunday I spent about 3 hours trying to get my car running (which did not happen). That what Saturday was for but we were out of commission for most of that day so there were no auto shops open on Sunday. After we left Florence we went to the Atl to get her mom who was flying in from Germany at 11:59 that night. We got to Atlanta around 7:30 after eating we decided to go see her best from high school who lives there. Let's just say that it was an experience that the two of us had.

Late Monday morning we left to go to Cullman to get her dog, some backyard stuff, and take her mom home. Clearly this trip did not go as planned and I knew it was going to continue being bad news bears but my roommate is a planner and did not want to listen to me. We got to her house and went into get her dog. Long story short, I went upstairs to take a nap and during that time her dog died. She was a hot mess for like a couple of days after that.

So, I have been trying to get sleep back and recover from those 4 days. I literally have the worse luck ever. Plus, I called to see how much it was going to take to fix my car. Its going to be about $610 since they have to take out the computer, reprogram it, then put it back in the car.  I dislike my car at the moment and I need a vacation at this point.

Monday

Lazy Days.....

Since the last time I posted I moved to Montgomery. And I am literally so bored I don't know what to do with myself. I think Florence had it out for me and did not want me to leave since I did not leave there until 9pm and did not get here until 2:15 Thursday morning (oh, thanks Birmingham for all the 11pm road work).

I have been here for almost two weeks now looking for jobs. It is a kinda long story behind it. In the last 2 weeks I think that I have watched so much television I have no idea what I am going to do with myself. Right now I am watching Wimbledon then the CWS later. I definitely do not think it is normal to spend about 6 days watching sports.

I need a job ASAP!!! I literally think my mind is turning to putty watching some of the ridiculous stuff (Secret Life of the American Teenager in particular) I have been watching. There is this book I have been reading called Don't You Know Much About American History by Kenneth C. Davis which is pretty interesting.  However, the bad television is out weighting the book at the moment.

It's official

So, kinda went in hiding there for a bit. Actually, I am trying not to hurt myself in my apartment  because I am moving. After two degress and nine and half years I am officially leaving Florence. Sad: kind of, somewhat. It's time to move on and get out of North Alabama in my personal opinion. Anywho, since I do not have cable or internet (due to moving) I have been walking to the school library. Can I just say it is too hot for words (96 with a 105 heat index does not scream fun at all).

In the process of me telling everyone that I am leaving people i.e. boys decided that they want to share their feeling about me with me. I really do not know how I feel about some of the things that have been said to me so far by them. I guess when someone moves people try to layout it out there even if the person really does not want to hear it. Other than that, I am just watching more DVD on tv.

Since the last post I have watched

• the whole series of My So-Called Life
• seasons 1-4 of One Tree Hill (for got what a good show it was until they decided to do the fast forward 5 years nonsense)
• still trying to make it through Dawson's Creek, which I do not see happening anytime soon still

Now back to packing/watching more One Tree Hill

Laters.....

Why me!!!!!!

I really do think I literally have the worst luck ever. There are honestly days that I wonder if God likes me or not (I know that is me being way dramatic). I have been having to listen to my friends stupid guy problems for the past few days and if I wrote about some of them you would think they were kinda stupid too. They are the usual "playing game with boys, not actually like a guy but letting him take you dinner even though you really are not into him" type of situations and the others are so stupid, no dumb, in actuality they are extremely ridiculous I will not even mention here.

I have an actual big problem (actually, a few BIG problems) that I am having to deal with at this very moment. Hopefully everything works out but considering it is me and with the type of luck I have there is a good chance I will have the same luck I always have with situations.

I have problems that are not guy related ( for once). There are definitely guy problems but I really am in a guy dry-spell which I am fine with at this moment. If I ever told the stories about some of the guys I know/had in my life on here about 75% would laugh and the other 25% would think I made the stories up because those type of things would never happen to a person unless you are me of course.

Now off to work. Which I might add I need another job asap or a roommate. Actually both would be awesome right now.

Lazy Days

The whole productive kick I was on worked a tiny bit. I did do all the easy stuff but there is still a pile of Vogues and T&C magazines laying on my floor.  I did decide to not stress out about all the stuff that is happening in my life (all of it is somewhat major).

I have been pretty much hanging out. Friday I went to a painting social downtown that one of my friends is over. My painting was horrible but everyone agreed that the color was really good. I had fun painting it. The pictures was suppose to be of Lilypads and water. Mine look more like rocks and water. 
(I'll post a picture of it later)

Then I went to a "End of the World" party that some of my friends decided to throw. I think the purpose was to freak out our friend who was home in Birmingham (in which case they succeeded). He was having a come apart thinking that it was actually ending. Other than that, just hanging in Florence (which is super boring right now because everyone is gone home because school is over) and trying to be productive.

Later......

Here's to Spring

Is it bad that I feel like I am already wasting my summer away and school has only been out for a week. It literally feels like mid-June to me and I have no idea why I seems like summer is almost over. In actuality it is still Spring but we always say "It"s SUMMERTIME because school is out unless you are one of the unfortunate people taking summer classes. I did take classes one summer and it killed my GPA (still trying to figure out how I passed that math class considering no one understood half of what the teacher was saying).

I decided last night, actually yesterday afternoon while watching 12 hours of  FNL (which I am officially addicted to and have watched both season one and two in the last three days) and thought that hey, I should try to be a little productive this summer. So, I have started looking for adult jobs not in Alabama, which is a big step for me considering my one friend is trying to get me to move to Montgomery where she is and the other one is still "not so secretly" trying to get me to move to Birmingham. Truth be told, both sound more appealing than moving back to Huntsville.

So, I guess I am going to kick this whole produtivity thing in to gear by cleaning desk one off and work my way around to two. Maybe I'll even finally go through all my old Vogues and Town & Country magazine and get rid of them. Definitely getting ambitious with the whole finally throwing away the magazines there. Here I go then into my semi-productive summer....maybe....not sure how long its going to last.

I think I am probably going to finish watching The Great Gatsby then to my productive summer. Actually, I  maybe take a nap then productity here I come......
