It's the end of the world...

So all I can think of is that song that goes "It's the end of the world as we know it...and I feel fine..."


Do I really though?


There is probably no gas left in ATL at this point...and, frankly, I feel fine. Nope, not scared.

Gas station annoyance

This is what I looked like when I tried to get a drink today from QT but couldn't bc of the fools drying up the gas reserves...what have we come to?

Well, that's me at the Barrel...in happier times. It's 11:48 A.M., and I am sitting at my desk fighting the nausea. Last night was crazy--crazy drunk. I feel like shit. Shit. I think I am never drinking again...

Nashville

OK, so that picture was taken before we left...no make-up, no nothing. I got back from Nashville today just a little bit ago. It was soo much fun. We saw Dave Barnes at Exit/In, which is a really neat music venue in downtown Nashville. We stayed in this really ghetto Super 8 on Brick Church Pike (if anybody knows where that is)...so be sure to check out my new pictures on webshots. On the way there, we got off the highway twice in order to find 1. the Jack Daniel's distillery and 2. the George Dickel distillery (does anybody know who this Dickel character is?) There was this amazing new artist that opened for Dave named B Young, and he was, to put it short, amazing. He sounded like a mix between Keane and K.D. Lang...amazing. He wrote this song that was a mix between the Indigo Girls' "Ghost" and the song "Hallelujah", which was originally written by somebody I cannot think of the name right now. Anyways, he was hot too. So after the show, I met Dave Barnes and had my picture taken with him...which was cool because that was my first picture with a semi-famous person. After we left Exit/In we went to the Hustler store where I bought Bobby an ash tray...it was pretty tight. So, I don't know what I'm doing tonight...hopefully we're going to a Sigma Nu party at Tech, so that should be interesting. I may just chill, who knows. Ciao.

Decatur

So, today is my last day living at home for a long time...bittersweet. This summer has been interesting, but fun. I missed my Agnes friends like whoa, so that was hard. It was good to see Megan and Katherine and hang out with them while they were at home...well, Katherine got away from Athens finally, so hopefully we'll be hanging out with her alot. It's wierd because I did alot of thinking, maturing, and changing this summer. I realized how petty drama is, and I completely hate it now. It adds so much stress to my life! It's sad because I feel like some of my closer friends and I have grown apart...they have grown away from me. I hate that feeling. It just seems like some of them only want to be my friend when other friends aren't around...and they don't even realize it when I mention it to them. So, I have given up on that! I'm so thankful for my close friends though--I love them. Anyways, today is really stressful already. I went to Ross in the hopes of getting the cute quilt Steve Madden flats, but of course, they were gone. Instead, I got a really cute pair of Chinese Laundry toe-hold sandals in an antique-gold color. They were super cheap...$12.99. I have to finish packing and organizing today. I am not sure if I'll be able to make it to Megan's (and it should be my farewell dinner as welll!!!!) farewell dinner because I have a meeting at 8:00 in Decatur for Orientation...I wish the dinner would be a little bit earlier...like 6:00?...doubt that will happen. Anyways, I guess I gotta start getting down to it and packing like crazy. Ciao.

How annoying?

Today was super hectic. I packed my car with alot of my dorm things in the hopes to get a load out of the way, only to find out that Heather had been threatened by the R.A. that if she saw me moving some stuff in that she would turn me in...so, I just left everything in my car. How annoying. I mean, what does it matter that some, not all, but some of my stuff is in the dorm? Poor Heather. So, not wanting to make my drive to Decatur worthless, I went to Northlake Mall with Heather so she could return some things to the Old Navy in there. There were soo many cute things on sale there, that I wanted everything, but, I only have $20.67 in my bank account. I think my mom is going to re-up my account tomorrow, so thank God. After returning a pair of worthless headphones to Target, I had the hopes of returning home, but traffic was absolutely horrendous (sp?) today, and it was so damn hot. I almost threw a brick (if I had one) at about 20 different cars because people are so rude these days! I was sitting in traffic with my blinker on to get over, but of course, what do people do? Speed up, yup that's right. How annoying? At about 5:3o on 285 Bobby calls me begging for me to let him use my car for work...his is goign into the shop to get repaired about the Pizza Hut guy crushed his door in. So, I decided it would be smart to get out of the 285 traffic and just chill for a bit. By 9:00 tonight, I'm exhausted. I wanted to hang out with Callie, but the day just slipped away from me. Hopefully, I'll get to go to dinner and say good-bye to Megan tomorrow night, it's sad she's leaving. The fun times won't cease, however, but Megan won't be there to partake. Hopefully, I'll make it to N'Orleans at some point...Greyhound or the Amtrak with Katherine (since we decided we can't afford airfare)!!!! Oh well, now I'm beat and I need to get some rest before my day tomorrow...it should be hell. Ciao.

"The L.A. Song"

Currently Listening to: Dave Barnes "The L.A. Song"...it's a really good song...

So, today is my last Monday of living at home...I move back into the dorms on Thursday. It's so wierd because I am feeling a little homesick...I don't know why, but I know I will be so happy to be back on my own in a few weeks. This weekend I am completely excited about going to Nashville with Heather...it will be so much fun! I will miss Bobby...things have been so great with us lately. It's like, we both realized how much we loved each other with him being gone for so long. He's my ultimate friend, and I'm glad that I have him. Anyways, enough mushy stuff. I have to go back to Target either today or Wednesday with my Mommy to finish buying the rest of the knick-knacks I need for the dorm. I have a really busy weekend coming up. I am a Peer Advisor and a Big Sister, so I have TONS of Orientation stuff to do, so my schedule is booked. I start classes next Wednesday, so I am kinda dreading that. I am getting so pumped about Ireland- that's where I'm getting everybody's Christmas presents, so nobody's getting anything before January 20th...it's ok, Irish gifts are better than American anyways!! It's been so hot outside lately that I've been feeling sick. My sister couldn't ride in her horse competition because she got heat-stroke and had to go to the doctor. She's ok now, but it was really scary. She's enjoying her new school, and it's like she's a completely new person. Ever since she left Wesleyan and started her new school, she is so much happier...doesn't that say something about Wesleyan? Anyways, I have to go call Bobby and register for his classes on my computer...au revoir mes amis.

"Let's get outta here..."

So I know I haven't posted lately, so what? I house-sat for this really nice old lady in Alpharetta from last Thursday until this past Tuesday...and I got paid $125...not too shabby for almost doing nothing. The alarm kept going off at wierd times of the night...I guess it was the ghost of her deceased husband (whose ashes were kept in a box in the room across from her bedroom). Bobby finally got back from Los Angeles on Sunday (well, Monday AM), so that is very exciting. I picked him up at the airport, and we have been spending ALOT of time together...it's just amazing how much a person can take another person for granted without even realizing it. All that time we spent fighting and bickering about stupid stuff (alot of it being me causing the drama) could have been spent differently. Oh well, everything is just dandy now. Bobby said Joe wanted us to come to Auburn this weekend, but Bobby didn't act like he really wanted to go. Besides, I told him that some fabulous shin-dig would probably take place at Callie's on Friday...I hope! Anywho, we'll find something fun to do if Callie and Shane are busy or we can't find anything else to do. On another note, Bobby surprised me with a movie date last night, and we saw "The Skeleton Key." I wanted to see it with my friends and my man, but he surprised me with a date...how could I say no? It was a good movie...it has a wonderful twist at the end that makes the movie soooo much more juicy. Well, I guess I am going to go take some Tylenol..I am not feeling too well...hopefully I'll be better for some fun events that should be taking place tomorrow night. Ciao.

Since you've been gone...

So, it's been 10 days since I've last seen Bobby. To be honest, I forget what people look like after a certain amount of time...and, I feel like I'm forgetting what he looks like...haha, thank goodness for pictures, eh? Anyways, today was interesting. My alarm went off at 8, and I thought I was going to die...but, I knew the doggies and kitties at AHS needed me, so I drug myself out of bed and attempted to beg Callie to join me...but, she went to Athens with Stacy, which sounded like more fun than what I did. It was really sad- I walked this 8 month old full-blooded Boxer that had an out-turned front paw. They said it was either from being broken as a puppy and nobody fixed it or it was a birth defect. Either way, it was really sad. Also, there was this beautiful puppy named Travis. I didn't recognize what was wrong with him until I looked him straight in the face--he was missing an eye. Somebody had poked it out when he was first born--how horrible is that? I think that if somebody can do that to an innocent baby animal, or any age animal, they deserve LA PEINE DE MORT (the death penalty). Anyways, this has been a wierd post...I'm ridiculously tired. Heather is coming tomorrow...yahh! Ciao.

To bring a smile...

Just click on this link and imagine Jay (Callie and Katherine, you know the fat kid that was homophobic and left in a tizzy because somebody arrived) singing this. In fact, the song that this kid is singing is the very song that caused Callie, Shane, and I to be left stranded at the fabulous Super 8 in Norcross. Thankyou wierd song that makes no sense.

I got nothin'

Why the heck would they allows this font to be on the blog? It's so boring and blah like the post I am leaving today. Today was my last day of summer classes, so that is the best thing that happened to me all day. I watched a really great movie called "The Upside of Anger," and I am considering purchasing it because it was that good. I realized today that one of the girls who is going to be a freshman at Agnes this Fall is the younger sister of one of the sweetest guys who works at Ed Voyles where I get my car serviced. I facebooked her, and I know that she is gonna think I'm a freak. I just wanted to say hey and to tell her bro I said what's up. Anyways, tomorrow is a big day. Two parties. I found out today that one of my mom's friends needs a house-sitter for August 12th-16th, and she lives in Alpharetta in a really cute townhouse with a puppy chihcuahsdfkja (I have no clue how you spell it...it's the Taco Bell dog). This will be interesting because I also have to help Heather move in...I guess the cute little pup will come with me! Anyways, I think I'm about to hit the sack, I'm beat. So, I'll probably have something more interesting to write about after I recover from this upcoming weekend. Ciao.

Ralph Lauren on Clearance...oh yea baby

So today Callie and I went bargain shopping. We visited about 3 resale boutiques that were absolutely horrible. There were ugly disgusting Versace pants that were $69.00 on resale! So, naturally, we resorted to Ross...the cream of the crop of shopping. After browing through the many items there, I came across a yellow Polo on clearance. Distinctly, I was beside myself in joy- it was $13.99! Even more strange, the small regular priced Polo was too big, but this large clearance Polo fit perfectly...strange. When I got to the counter, I noticed some gray dust all over the back. The lady told me she'd give me 15% off, so I said yes...I washed it when I got home and used my trusty Spray 'n Wash stain stick, and it came off just fine. That was the joy of my day. Yesterday, getting my vintage Coke shirt at Target was the highlight...AND seeing Scout walk again...can we say miracle?
Tomorrow is my very last day of summer classes, and I am happy to say the least. I have a presentation about the animal protection policies of France, so that should be boring. Then, I have a hair cut at 3:00 with Marty...I was thinking about getting long bangs (the kind that get in your eyes) and a relayering of my hair. This should be interesting. Kandance told me that there will be jet ski's and stuff at hers and Kelley's birthday party, but I doubt I will be getting on one of those. AND, I don't plan on going to sleep at Kelley's house. But, we shall see...ya never know where you'll pass out. K, well gotta finish my laundry. Ciao.

Hooray!

Hooray! Yup, hooray! Hannah's back from Spain! She called me yesterday, and we talked for quite a while...it sounds like she had a lot of fun! Hopefully I'll go see her in Charlotte or something before we go back to school...I miss her sooooooo much and all of my friends from school! We are going to have soooo much fun this next year, I can't wait! Heather said she may be coming down early and will stay with me, so I am super excited! I miss them, it's ridiculous...my girlies. Anyways, today was my last real day of French, so that was nice. I got a 92 on my test...could have done better, but whatever. I hear that Megan is back in town, so that's good she got home safely as well. Most of my books came in the mail today for my classes, and I am realizing just how much money I am saving by boycotting the bookstore on campus. I got one book for $0.50 on Amazon.com, but the back of the book said it was $20.00! More shockingly, the most expensive book I bought was $19.50 on Amazon, but the list price at Barnes and Nobles is $77.50!!! Whoa, talk about deals! Bobby is going to Auburn tonight to help some of his friends move apartments, so that's good he'll have some fun tonight. Tomorrow I don't have class, so I think I may go walk around Little 5 Points to get some exercise and find neat things. Anyways, I have this stupid French project to finish instead of taking a final...I don't feel like doing it though, I'll probably do it tomorrow. Well, I'm glad Katherine is having a shindig on Friday...I can't wait to party with her again! She's so much fun! (Katherine, it will be a kickin' good time...)Ok, well I am off for a run...I'm feeling a bit lazy! Ciao.
