I kissed a boy...

and then wondered if I shouldn't have. Last night I was over at a friend's house and this guy that my friends want to set me up with showed up. He was sweet, sensitive, etc. However, he's divorced with two small children. Not sure exactly how I feel about that one. Want to take this slow and easy and see what develops, hope he understands. Last night, however, I was drinking, and might have flirted a bit too much and made him think otherwise...so we'll just have to see. A big part of me just wants to go with it, but I know that I'm not a child anymore and obviously don't want to hurt him if I decide I can't handle it.

I have been in my house for about a week now and I love it! The upstairs (living area for me) is basically done with the exception of my office (and we'll just keep the door closed there) and getting pictures hung, etc.

The guy at work is still driving me nuts. And now they want to put him in the shop. On one hand that is good for me, cause I won't have to work with him. However, bad for the bag boys outside cause he already thinks he's better than them because of his age and now he will definitely lord it over them. I am so sick of listening to his stories of how he had done everything and been everything. Yeah, right! Whatever!

Went to my cousin's wedding yesterday. Had to stand for the entire ceremony because the preacher forgot to tell us to sit down.

Finally named my cat. Gonna call her Monet. My mom actually suggested it since I love artwork by him.

Working both jobs is killing me. I am teaching summer school 8-1 M-F and golf course 2-9 T-S usually. Good money, but I am exhausted!!! Only three more weeks of summer school though!

Got my teaching schedule for next year and I have 4 geometry and 2 data. Really don't want to teach the Data class, but if I get to teach 2 geometry classes for each data, I guess it is worth it.

Well back to work.....

I'm here!

So I am officially in my new house. I moved the kitchen and bathroom by myself on Friday and my friends came by on Saturday at 9 to help. We worked until about 4, got all the furniture and large stuff over and unloaded and then I sent them home. My parents and I and a friend continued to work on it until about 9 and then they all went home as well. I stayed up until about 2am working and finally crashed. I am exhausted today but still doing little things. I never thought I would be so sore or exhausted. However it is a great feeling to be in and mostly settled. The computer is obviously hooked up, first things first of course. LOL! and the TV...such a TV junkie! Well back to work...more later.

Just had to see her!

So last night I got to see the dreaded ex roommate in all her glory...fun times...turns out she is working as a waitress at one of the local bars. That was just a fabulous thing to see as I walk in the bar. She was apparently waiting on my friends and when I arrived she just stopped coming...real mature...but not surprising coming from her. I haven't seen this girl in months and now she's at the only decent bar in town. Great!

Today was the first day of summer school and what a chaotic zoo. I walked into school at around 8 and there were kids everywhere! Finally we got them all settled and into the appropriate computer lab. One girl I just wanted to slap! She was so bitchy! Even had to get her off myspace when she was supposed to be working...that pissed her off even more. However, next time she's gone. One boy had his father there because he couldn't believe his kid made a zero on the final exam. The kid was absent for the test so I put in a zero. I agreed to let him take the final and see if he did well enough to pass. He made a 19. I knew he would...it was just a complete waste of time on his part. Now he has to take the class again in summer school anyway and wasted most of today. Stupid, Stupid.

Tomorrow is the big move. Can't wait!

The Latest

So I got this email with the following instructions:

"The Game is on!!! This should be fun. Describe me in one word.... Just one single word. Send it To me and to me only. Then send this message to all your friends and see how many strange & interesting things they say about you.


Here's how to Play:
1. Hit the reply key and send me my one word.
2. Then return to this message, and forward it to yourFriends(including me) and see what people say about you when limited to one word!!!"

How cool...wondered what people would say about me so I sent it of course. Got back replies of special, fantastic, awesome, caring, energetic, and such. Really a feel good moment. Sometimes you just need those. If you haven't seen this email, then copy it and send it. Everyone needs a feel good moment sometimes.

Moving into my new house on Friday. Had the cable company come out today to make sure I was wired for internet access and cable tv and found a bump in the road. I was so excited that they were coming today so that it would be ready for this weekend and then BUMP! The house which was built in the early 90's has what they call series run cable meaning that the cable comes from the box outside on one cable and runs from room to room. Thus, whenever you split the cable to hook up a TV or such it weakens the signal and so you can not have many hooked up at once. Therefore, I have to have an electrician come in and have the house rewired in what they call a home run system meaning several cables will come in from outside and go directly to each room individually. Fun times. Called the electrician and they told me they would hopefully be able to come out Friday afternoon and take a look at it. It will be $80/hour labor, 2 man job, and parts. What joys of home ownership!

Have lots of packed boxes at my apartment right now...really sick of looking at them. However, kind of stuck cause don't really know what else to do until I get some of them out of there! That's my plan for Friday afternoon when I'll be by myself moving...getting some of the boxes moved and figuring out what's left to pack. Have friends coming Saturday to help with the furniture so figure it'll be easier if I move some of it by myself.

So I am at work tonight and one of our "bag boys" (I use this term lightly, since he's 42!) comes in and he's all pissed off cause one of the members hurt his feelings...boo hoo! Why don't you get a real job. What 42 year old man works as a bag boy??? He's apparently way too intelligent to be doing this. I don't understand it. I mean I like the guy, he's okay most days, but some days he can be hard to take, because every topic that comes up he has something to say. Either he's done it, worked at it, read about it, etc. Really gets a little annoying. Sometimes we have really good conversations but othertimes I just really don't want to see him!

I start teaching summer school tomorrow morning! 8-1 M-F..woo hoo! Yet, it does pay $30/hour so I really can't complain too much. We'll see what little joys I get to deal with for the next 5 weeks. It will be an incredibly long day since I also work 2-9 at the golf course. I get to have that schedule for the next few weeks. Can't wait!

Had another lovely parent contact the school today. Apparently her son didn't do as well on his final as she thought he should have but yet still got an A in the class. What are you worried about? Love having to respond to those!

Anyway, wish me luck with the new house and I'll post pictures soon.
