Wandering Aimlessly

I was off today. Whooo!! Very exciting. Of course, come Saturday, I may not be so thrilled about having had Tuesday off, but such is life.

I have to work extra hours and late this week, too, because Saturday is Sarah's bridal shower in Danville. And I have to work. So I asked if I could get off at 11 instead of 1, and my wonderful manager said yes. So I will have to book it to Danville to get there by 2 (I've been told 3.5 hours... eeep!). So it'll be a long week of shortened lunches and working late to make up for the time and hit 40 hours with only working 4 full days and one 3-hour day.

Today, Jessica is home as well. She finished up with finals and arrived home early Sunday morning, and she doesn't start work until Thursday, so we hung out. We went to the bank, post office, and to get gas, and then we had lunch at Chevy's (had a tostada salad), and to see What A Girl Wants. It was a very cute movie! I had expected it to be so-so, but I enjoyed it a lot. Afterwards, we went to Ben & Jerrys for Free Cone Day. Yum.

I also bought a hands-free thingy for my cell phone. I was going to get a car charger, too, but those darn things are $30! Yeesh. The hands-free was $15, and that's expensive enough. But I talk on the phone on my way home from work a lot, and traffic is stop-and-go, and it's probably better than I'm not holding a cell phone up to my ear. So this will be safer. Hopefully.

I'm totally exhausted. I slept in until 9:30 and I haven't done anything but relaxing, fun things, and I'm still tired. What's with this? I think it's the rainy weather. The guy at Best Buy even asked me if I was sleepy (which totally came out of nowhere, and I think by my reaction, he was backpedaling and feeling like a dork. Heehee).

I talked to Carolyn yesterday, and that was so much fun. I miss ya, girl! And I miss ORLANDO. Hearing all her exciting adventures makes me want to move, and fast. I still don't know if I would rather go to Orlando or to Los Angeles, but I definitely want to go somewhere. I just need to save up some money first, because moving is expensive. And I really would like to purchase a condo or something, rather than throw my money away on rent. I've done enough of that. I want to get something out of all the money I put in. ::nods:: So, because of that, I think I'm going to be home for a bit longer. Not that I don't love my parents, and I really don't mind being here at all, it's just... after living on my own, it's different to be home. I want to feel independent and grown up, and I don't when I'm living in the bedroom I've had practically since I was born.

I think I'm going to reinstall Sims now.
