i think that what i'm going through right now with don is probably the hardest thing i've ever had to go through.  he was in town this weekend for easter, and tomorrow morning he'll be gone again and i won't see him until the beginning of may. even then, i will only see him for about 3 days and then i have to say goodbye yet again. i thought it would get easier the more i had to do it, but it hasn't. it actually gets worse.  because every day i fall more and more in love with him and it just makes it that much harder to be away from him. i didn't think it was possible to love another human being that much. it just makes me want to scream i love him so much, and it absolutely breaks my heart every time i have to say goodbye to him. i don't care how dramatic this may sound, it's the truth. i know that in less than 6 months we'll be married but for right now this sucks ass.

ugh.

i just want to preface this entry by saying that i'm not trying to offend anyone or make anyone angry. i just came across these pictures and it really affected me and almost brought me to tears. i have always been against abortion but sometimes it's difficult to explain to people why i feel the way that i do. i think these images do a damn fine job. i want to warn everyone though that they are very graphic and disturbing. i'm not trying to turn anyone pro-life, i was just really affected by this and wanted to share it with you.

august 23rd to the 26th i will be in dallas. can't wait! 

it will be fab to see the boyfriend and my future home!  

i have really bad cramps. you probably didn't want to know that, but i'm in pain so i don't really care. 

work has been pissing me off a lot lately. it's mostly the customers and my manager robert, who just sits on his ass and talks on the phone all day. and when you ask him to help you with anything he cops an attitude with you. fuck that shit.

today i tried on a dress today that was so adorable but it just barely fit. i couldn't find the next size up, though, and i was very disappointed. sometimes i wish i were a size 2 so that i could just look fabulous in anything.

i bought the plain white tee's cd because i love hey there delilah but the rest of the album sucks. seriously. it's probably the worst cd i've bought in years.

[I'm feeling... | sleepy]

i got a new "vanilla chai" scented deodorant. it makes my armpits smell like cream soda. no lie.

i was at bed bath and beyond for 9 hours today. i am not opposed to working long days, but i swear that place completely drains your energy. i used to dislike my new manager kym, but i changed my mind. she's actually not bad. 

don said something really cute the other day. he was telling me about how he was at a restaurant this past weekend and saw a really cute little boy eating corn on the cob, and it made him realize he really does want kids. and that he can't wait to have them with me someday. :) :) 

welp, i am going to take a shower because i am a dirty girl. well, not really, but i just feel gross. then it's sleepy time.

i just chopped my hair off. i wasn't really planning on doing anything that drastic, but the lady that was cutting it was really going to town so i just let her. who cares? it will grow back soon enough anyway. it's just got lots of layers and it's pretty choppy. it's cute. i've had it similar to this before. 

yep.

that's all for now.

[I'm feeling... | drained]

the past few years i have listened to this song at the beginning of the new year and it makes me smile. it's by death cab for cutie who, by the way, always put a smile on my face.

so this is the new year.
and i don't feel any different.
the clanking of crystal
explosions off in the distance (in the distance).

so this is the new year
and I have no resolutions
for self assigned penance
for problems with easy solutions

so everybody put your best suit or dress on
let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
as thirty dialogues bleed into one

i wish the world was flat like the old days
then i could travel just by folding a map
no more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
there'd be no distance that can hold us back.

there'd be no distance that could hold us back

so this is the new year

I really cannot believe that school starts up again in less than a week. I'm kind of dreading it because I'm taking 6 classes, but I have a good feeling about it and it will help me graduate sooner. Not that anyone really cares, but here are the classes I'm taking; consumer behavior, retail buying, retail management, apparel analysis, human behavior and leadership, and industrial/organizational psychology. Come on, how great does the apparel analysis class sound? I freaking love my major, seriously. Call me a dork but all of those classes sound insanely interesting. Sometimes I feel bad that I'm not going into a helping profession like social work, but whatev. It's not for everyone.

My boyfriend has totally gotten me hooked on 97.1. I love Deminski and Doyle, I can't help it.

I have also gotten hooked on curling my hair. It turns out my hair looks really cute with banana curls and they actually hold for a long time. Who would have thought?

Oh, and my grandma is doing better and is now in a nursing home for physical therapy. I went and visited her today and it was nice to see her up and about instead of laying on a hospital bed with tubes everywhere. She will probably never be able to live on her own again though, so we have to figure out what to do once PT is over. Everything will work out for the best though so I'm trying not to worry about that.

Well, it's off to bed for me. I wanted to write about my new year's eve, but I have to wake up for work in 7 hours. Back to the grind...

[I'm feeling... | sad]

my grandma had congestive heart failure this morning and is in the hospital. she will be hooked up to breathing machines for the next few days until she can breathe on her own, if that ever happens again. god, i hate the fact that i have to even say if. needless to say i'm completely torn up about this. i just got home from the hospital and my eyes are all puffy from crying. i hate seeing her like that, with tubes and machines and everything. by the time i left she could at least understand what people were saying and she was responding somewhat with head nods. so even if she doesn't make it at least she got to hear that i love her and i got to hold her hand. the only thing that's helping me through this is that my grandpa is up there waiting for her. so please please just keep her in your thoughts and prayers for me, no matter what ends up happening.

[I'm feeling... | hopeful]

this is a sign that i own too many hot pink electronic devices:

i was just sitting at my desk and i needed to check my cell phone for something and out of the corner of my eye, i saw my iPod and i picked it up without looking, thinking it was my phone.

nice.

i am applying to von maur and parisian today. i am also going to apply to the white house black market that is opening up at laurel park. i WILL work at a higher end retail store if it kills me. that's where i eventually want to end up working, so why not start now? although i still like the idea of opening up my own boutique someday. wouldn't that be fab? i would love to call it "posh" but some fucker already opened a store with that name in ann arbor. 

ok, back to trying to better my life.

Ok, so I really need your guy's advice/input/2 cents on this one. I'm doing this to get your opinions and also because it's a good pro/con list for me to look at. (I feel like a Gilmore).

Most of you know this already, but obviously I dated one of my bosses at BBB. He still works there. Cory, the suckiest SM on the face of the planet is now gone and Barb (who I love) is the new SM. I also learned that one of my favorite managers from the store opening, Sam, is coming back to take Barb's spot. Jessica has told me that the work environment has gotten much better with all of these changes. 

Now, in order to graduate I need to complete 2 co-ops. The co-op entails working 90 hours at a regular retail job, setting up objectives with my boss and following through with them, and writing a paper at the end of the 90 hours. I'm registered for one for next semester, and I've submitted my resume to the co-op office at school, and they suggested I find a job for the holidays. However, I think it's too late in the season for that because I've gotten no leads and time is running out. 

So I had this crazy idea. If Barb goes for this, she would re-hire me, preferably just for a month or just enough time to finish my 90 hours. I could even do it over break so that I could work a full 40 hours a week. I don't even know if they can do that, but we'll see. I also don't even know if they're hiring, but they were always cutting hours when I was there so I'm assuming they're not really looking for anything permanent right now. Plus stores can always use extra help during the holidays. Anyway, so they would re-hire me, Barb and I would set up the objectives, and I'd complete my 90 hours and be done with one co-op before the semester even starts (which Madonna said I could do). Maybe they could even give me random jobs that never get done, such as straightening the back rooms or something. Basically I could be the BBB bitch for a month. THAT way, I would be done with the co-op and I could take on another class for next semester, thus making my life a lot easier in the long run. 

The problem is, Jeff is still there. Now you all know how shitty of a breakup we had. I know that we have both moved on, though, and we are both adults. Well, I know that at least I am an adult. All of this seems like such a great idea, but then I think of having to see Jeff again and my stomach drops. However, this is about being a professional, which I can totally do. 

So, I guess I just want some input. Just anything you want to say, please say it. Am I being totally crazy? Am I just taking the easy way out with this co-op thing? I want to know what you think.

Thanks for reading all of this, if you made it this far :)

Yes I know this is my third update of the day. HOWEVER, did you know that there is a website www.tpsreports.com? Well there is. But you need special authorization to go to it. Isn't that funny? Ok I thought it was...

If anyone cares, I deleted my myspace the other day. There's no particular reason why I did it, I just decided I wanted to and did it. Knowing me I'll probably make a new one in a few days, but for now I'm happy not having one. Yep!

[I'm feeling... | curious]

I'm watching Dr. 90210 (which is very addictive, by the way) and that led me to ask this question. If you could get any kind of plastic surgery for free, would you get it done? If so, what procedure would you get? I personally never would get any, but I'm just curious about what everyone else thinks.

Ladies:

This is kind of a personal question, but I want to know if anyone else has this problem. Does anyone else have one particular bra that makes your boobs a really weird shape? Because I definitely am experiencing that right now and it's annoying.
