the bottom of normal

That would be me. My iron and potassium levels are at the bottom of normal. Because they don’t want them to go down from there they’d rather they be up so I have to make sure I eat more foods that have potassium and take an iron supplement. Oh for joy more supplements.

then it hit me

I just became tired all of a sudden. Like half an hour ago I got this feeling like I wanted to just lay down and go to bed. I’m yawning and sleepy. Ugh.

I’m looking forward to tonight. I’m going to rent The Incredibles and maybe something else, but definitely The Incredibles. I haven’t seen that damn movie yet and I can’t wait to watch it. I just found out that Jason Lee is one of the voices. He’s so awesome. I loved him in Almost Famous, he totally played that rock dude character so well.

So here I am at work, trying to look like I actually have work to do. I’m waiting for the CEO to get around to reviewing a presentation that I have to make 15 copies of and then hole-punch and then bind together with a bunch of other stuff, AND THEN FedEx it so that i’ll arrive tomorrow. Retards. He’s had all freaking day! I think I have till 6:30 to get it out today, but I can always bring it to FedEx tomorrow and it’ll get there on Monday. The meeting isn’t until the evening anyway. Whatever. I hate last minute shit. Especially when we’ve known about this damn meeting since last week. What-ever! :)

My fave show has always been Bridezillas and now, luckily, they have new episodes! The first one I saw had this 19 year old girl who got engaged to this guy on their 4th date! Insanity. Then she planned the wedding in 3 weeks. I think the reception was in a high school gymnasium. I’m still not sure why they had to plan the wedding so fast, but I think it’s because he’s in the Navy. His parents hadn’t even met her until the rehearsal dinner.

Then literally right before the wedding was to start she totally freaked out and brokedown crying, saying that she couldn’t do it, she was scared. “no i can’t, no i can’t, yes I can, no i can’t” Then her father comes in and goes “its no big deal” and they finally get her to walk down the aisle, but not without her hesitating at the beginning and crying. That was funny. I was just thinking about what her future children will think when they see that video tape. “yep kids I was really excited about marrying your father!” As Oprah says (and I happen to agree with her on this) “doubt means don’t” :)

I can’t wait to go home. I totally need to go to the grocery store and get some provisions. Oh! This weekend is NASCAR at Infineon! I should totally buy a ticket and just go! I think I might just do that. It’d be beyond awesome to finally meet Dale Jr. or at least just see him in person. I’m off to check out tickets!

things have changed

That couldn’t be more true.

So many things happened this weekend I’m still coming down from it all, and it’s totally done a number on my emotions. Today I’ve felt like crying at least 5 times, and for a few of those times I actually got to let it all out. Matt left this morning to go back to his parents place and then eventually back to his home in Arcata. I miss him and I didn’t want him to go. I think about the fact that he’s not here and it makes me sad, but at the same time I know that he wants to be with me and that we’re always going to be in contact and that we will see each other again soon. It softens the distance but it doesn’t erase it. I feel like moving to Arcata to be with him but thats basically impossible.

He’s so thoughtful and sweet. My car wouldn’t start yesterday morning before it was time for me to go to work. Matt figured it was my battery and that I needed a new one. So he drove me to work (in his mom’s truck, his truck actually needed work, and was being worked on in red bluff, so thats why he had to take his mom’s truck down to me) and then went to Sears, bought a new battery, plus tools and a tool box. He installed the new battery and now my car is totally ok. He picked me up from work in my car (trinity) and then I drove us back home. He wouldn’t let me pay him back for the battery and the tools. He also took back the tablecloths I rented for the party, and the keys to the center where the party was held. He did all of that for me and he totally didn’t have to, especially since he doesn’t know the area.

This weekend he literally met all of the people in my family, well all the people that matter. Everybody liked him, which is great and I knew that they would. I knew that he would fit in and get along with everyone.

gotta go.. will write more later.
