Yesterday I filled up my car with gas and it cost me:



$45.66



Are you kidding me? At least when I buy a Jeep Compass in the fall it will have better mileage than my mustang, but still.... jeeeeeeeeez! How much higher can it get?

I got a wonderful new camera, huzzzzzzaaah! Mainly the big push was because I'm going to Europe very soon and wanted to become very well acquainted with it before said trip.....

I got my passport today!!!!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!

Some idiot ran into the back of my mom's school bus this morning. There were no kids on the bus thank god. I think the bus was pretty okay, but stupid suv thing looked real messed up. I do hope the idiot is ok though. I think they were fine or I probably would have seen an ambulance.

Anyways, so my poor mother called me at like 6:35 as I was just getting in my bus and asked she me to drive her route after I was done with my own. Poor thing. So my evacuation drill will have to wait til tomorrow. Got done with my route and headed back to our street where hers begins and did her route which turned out that only 16 kids got on. Usually she has close to 70. But of course you have to stop at all the stops anyways just to be sure. I do hope I did, because I was going by some of the kids directions but they live next door to me and are pretty trustworthy. Besides, if I was a kid getting to school late I'd make sure the bus driver stopped at every stop just to stay out longer ;)

Pulled into my house about ten minutes ago. I'm beat. But they had to come pick up my mother and give her a drug test because it's a mandatory thing if you have an accident in the bus. Maybe she'll feel better about it all later when we go to see Camelot tonight (with Lou Diamond Philips as Arthur!! You know, the guy from the movie La Bamba?? Who played Richie Valens??) YAAAAAY!

UPDATE: My mom's okay and so is the other driver. She said it was like he didn't stop at all and hit her really hard. Their car is probably totaled while her back bumper is simply messed up.

These are the cutest shoes EVER! And I am not a girl that loves shoes... I WANT I WANT I WANT!

The name of these specific shoes? Sprinkles Cake Runner :D

"I didn't know Stephen Hawking was British," says my mom.

"Well it's not like he has an accent," says I.


There was uncontrollable laughter for about 5 minutes after that.

So, I'm kinda pissed about this whole writer's strike thing. I know they finally made some breakthrough today and yay for them getting back to work soon hopefully. I'm not saying they don't deserve good payment because they do obviously. But here's the thing and this is from the WGA website...

"Most writers are middle class; 46% did not even work last year. Of those who do work, one quarter make less than $37,700 a year and 50% make less than $105,000 a year. Over a five year period of employment and unemployment, a writer's average income is $62,000 per year."

As a school bus driver I make roughly $11,000 a year. I can't even imagine having $37,700 a year let alone $62,000. One of my best friends makes about the same as I do at an insurance company, has a baby, and the place she works at doesn't even offer her health insurance. I hate to call them money hungry, but come on. We live in the real world. And while it isn't fair that execs at movie and tv studios bring home six figures, it's not like most of the writers are in poverty here. A strike seems a bit much. Maybe its just me as someone only affected because of the lack of new episodes and not as something to do with my own paycheck.

But what about the people that work for waaay less and have totally lost their jobs because of the halt on productions. I mean, there's a LOT of people that have lost their jobs because of this strike. Seems like THEY'RE the ones that should have been on strike. I'd be pissed if I was a Grip or something and got laid off. Whatever, they just need it settled and soon.

As Ja'mie King would say, "Not to be a bitch, but...". Blah, that felt good to blog.

I HATE BBC Robin Hood now. I'm so pissed. I'm not watching the third series....I actually gave my computer screen the finger when it ended. It makes me want to throw things.

It's snowing in Boston. suckers! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Awww, it's cute that I'm important enough to take off your friends list, here on lj. I mean, if I had "OCD" and was about to potentially be fired from my job for not doing it (or did you quit because you couldn't handle the real world?...that's just what I heard), and afraid my boyfriend might die because of his wonderful driving skills, and a big dog to take care of, and paying for a house (not really, you just pay the cable), and my only friends were ones I'd never met, just talked to online, and I got high/drank/and took xanax every weekend because it's fun to not remember my life....

Yeah, I'm a huge burden that must be deleted.....awww....you're precious.

Too bad no one reads these anymore. Everyone left LJ. No more drama.

Yes, those people are who you think they are. And I met and touched and talked with them, bitches.

I just read Dino's note on facebook....someone give me some more details to this fiasco that has occured....

Geez I leave montevallo for ONE year!

Me and dad are going to petsmart for him tomorrow....Dad brought him home today and I had no idea. TOTAL SHOCK! My dad came in my room to check on him a while ago (3 am) and said "Can he sleep on my bed for a little while??" I don't know what's cuter....him or my dad!

He needs sunblock for the summer! >.< Or a lil doggy shirt!!! He was dumped on the side of the road in a box with his brother!!! My dad got him from the humane society. He's got the prettiest eyes I've ever seen on a dog. They're like a green hazel-ish. He just fell asleep on me today when he got here and he loves to hide his nose in the crook of your arm. I can't believe my dad bought a PUPPY! I'll have more pics tomorrow I'm sure....we gotta get a leash, maybe some more collars??, a stuffed toy for him to sleep with since he likes to curl up on you, a bed, doggy outfits for when we take him outside, toys......I haven't done this is in a while!!!!!!!

It's hard to tell the difference between a crying baby and an upset cat....

Well, me and my dad drove to Philadelphia, Mississippi today and gambled....For a whole day of fun it was sooo worth it. I came away with $35. I should have walked away at $39-something, haha.

It's a long-ass drive, but if you have the time I highly suggest going there to have some fun at the slots, blackjack, poker, whatever your game may be. Go to the 25-cent machines though. It's the perfect amount to spend/lose/win.....don't go to dollar or 5 dollar slots....you'll lose in like 3 minutes....25 cents? I started with 20....came out an hour and a half later with 35 bucks from video poker....fabulous. Silverstar? Boooo....Golden Moon? YES!

I'm sick of this. I'm sick of pretending it doesn't bother me, and that I'm over it. I'm sick of doing all the legwork of trying to keep in touch with everyone. I'm sick of doing all the legwork in all my romantic relationships. It's always up to me, and I'm finally breaking down. I'm the one doing it all.

I get criticized by a family member for being sinful. I can't be perfect and I can't be everything up to your standards. Better tell my mommy and daddy I'm a sinner under their nose, right? Wrong, they know what I am and what I do. Get over the fact I'm not a perfect christian like yourself. I'm going to be who I am and not be married, barefoot, and pregnant by 20....first off because I'm 22. I MUST BE AN OLD MAID TO YOU RIGHT? On top of that, my "low-cut" dress is far too revealing for any man to respect me I suppose, huh? Guess I'm just a common whore. I'm so sorry you have to be related to scum like me. I guess calling my parents and trying to tell on me was your way of saving me from the depths of hell i must be quickly sinking into. How GRATEFUL I am to you for not telling on me to my grandmother. You're right. It probably WOULD kill her to know how sinful I am. I guess I owe you my life now don't I? What a convenient predicament that is for you.

I want to be numb again. I can't take crying myself to sleep every night, like I have been for this past week. It's too much and I don't deserve it. I don't deserve being treated this way. I'm a good person. I'm far from perfect. Very much so. But I'm a good person and I try to do the right thing.

But there's no one for me to confide in now. No one around. And it's killing me. I can't do the legwork this time. I want to so badly. But I don't have the strength. It's all a sham. I barely have energy to change clothes, but I keep on pretending I'm fine. I just can't anymore. I'm hurting too much and there's no one to lean on.
