1.) She’s Come Undone –> Wally Lamb  (re-reading it for a Psych class)
4.) " ‘I mean, what’s the point?’ Then I’d gone home and worked Grandma’s spare sewing machine needle in and out, around and around, practicing my Julie look while I did it, as if my heart weren’t racing. Later, when my ear got infected, I blamed Ma. ‘What do you expect when you make me live in a house that doesn’t have any stupid peroxide?’ I’d said."

  Ummmm so yeah. Haven’t updated in a while, kinda bored at work…So guess what Im-a do? Yup, you guessed it. I am gunna bore ya. lol.  Well, actually, a funny story for ya. The night I wrote my last entry…I was feeling very…lonely, and very blaze`….Especially because I missed Frank terribly and I was trying to be good about it. Well..about…45 minutes after I wrote the entry, he logs back on and we talked a LONG time. And really since that day, he’s made more of an effort to have quality time with me! Which is so awesome because I didn’t tell him what I was feeling. He missed me all on his own, and has made more effort to make Hanna time, lol. It was funny because when he logged back on he said, "work sucks. it takes up so much time. why does anyone want to work?" lol..that was A.K.A for, "work sucks, takes up so much time and I miss my Hanna."   But he of course can’t just come right out and SAY it like that. He always does that though…it may take a while for him to catch on…or realize something…but it’s like, he does it right when I am about to give up hope on him ever having the light dawn on him, lol. It’s like he ALWAYS pulls through and …..just makes me really love him.
 
    He’s especially bad about losing time. He gets so focused on something he ….will go hours or days until he realizes how much time he’s lost by focusing so much on one thing. Just like this past spring when I was trying to hammer in the idea that I need to give my work vacation notice….like, more than a couple weeks…and he thought we had all the time in the world, lol. What a goofball huh?   Anyway, the good news? 

GOIN TO FREAKIN’ EUROPE!!!! HA!!!! Who woulda thunk…little ol’ me….Stuck in MO for the past 10 grueling years…its about time my misery pays off, lmao. Frank was talking to me  few days ago, and mentioned how we needed to start planning our trip and that he’d like tohave it finalized by week 2 of November.   Frank? Plan a head of time??? I like whoever posessed him, haha. Soooooooo he threw a couple ideas out there. One of them being Prague (Czech Republic) ….I wasn’t too…hip on the idea. Like who goes to Prague?? lol…Except Vin Disel in XXX…*drools*   Anyhoo, I thought maybe Mexico or Paris…some place tropical or romantic. Prague???  But he found this CRAZY awesome hotel, with a pool at the top of the highrise!!! Lol!!! Crazy! And it ended up being cheaper than the hotels in Mexico and France..lol…weird right? Anyway he was showing me these pictures of Prague in the winter…and the castle and the bars, and the cobble stone streets….I can see us all bundled up in winter coats and hats and scarvs….freezing our butts off….and it feels so cozy to me. So exciting and thrilling. And in a way exotic. Someplace neither of us have ever been before, so to experience something for the first time together….I’ve been to Mexico…he’s been to france, scotland, ireland, england, spain…etc…Not Prague…

   AND, we’ll be there over New Years Eve….and when I think of Prague I think of underground parties…lol…and he found these cruises that will be on the river, dinner dancing, at midnight they shoot off fireworks, give you champaign…we kiss…*Awwwww!!!* and then go inside the boat/ship (?) and go to the "disco" lol.  So now he mentions Florence because it’s warmer, but I want Prague!!! I want us to be in lots of clothes, bundled up, freezing, …..then running into the hotel room to get warm and order hot tea or coffee or hot chocolate you know?

    But really, more than anything the thought of bringing in the New Year with the greatest guy ever is so exciting for me. I don’t wanna spend it at work….I don’t want to spend it at home…I want to be with him….I want to experience something exciting and holiday-ish with him for a change.

   I told Lee today about the vacation plans. She went all nuts and started being a total witch about it. Asking me how I could be sure she’d give me the days off I need for this trip and why I felt I had the right to just go…blah….and Finally having enough of her bitchiness, power hungry attitude I replied, "I know I will get the days off because I deserve them. Because I am a good worker who never comes in late or calls in sick or asks for days off…and.." duh duh duh, are you ready? lol "….and because Ish said I could go."   —Silence

   "And who is your boss? Ish isn’t your boss, I am your boss. What makes him or you think he has the right to tell you you can go?"   ……….lol eh by this point I was beyong caring about my job. "Yes, you’re my manager, but he owns this motel, there for he is your boss. I still work for him. I make him the money he has to pay your salary. He’s the head hancho…he’s my boss. And besides, he told me to never turn down a chance to go to Europe. He tells me to go every time I see him."    ……..She got mad and went into her office and shut the door. Then came out and told me I better hope we still have dependable people working here when I want to take these days off. And that I better hurry up and turn in my days……..Bah…she can give me the time or she can be a jerk and not. Either way I am not passing up the chance of a lifetime just because she has power hungry issues. There are other jobs. And I am pretty secure in knowing Ish would kick her butt if she caused him to lose his best desk clerk. Sooooooooo YEP…..nothing she says or does can spoil this for me.   Really…no one can. Im going to Europe with Frank and I am going to love the hell out of it. 😀
