as of tomorrow

officially, tomorrow, i will be on my week long vacation at Long Lake, enjoying myself way more then i have in, oh…. 7 months. thats just mainly cuz of work. i cannot WAIT for this break…. i mean, yeah, i get days off here and there, but its nothing, NOTHING, compared to literally being so far away from it all that they cannot touch me. work can call all they want and i can be all "oh, i dont have service, cant talk to you!"

im excited.

as long as no one starts yelling or something. or michelle spends all week in the camper again going "im too tired, im too sick, you watch the kids and im going to just sleep". i swear i will get pissed off. more pissed off then when she told keith she couldnt watch abby cuz she had to watch the damn kitten. and im still pissed about that.

anyway. i dropped, like, $200 for this trip, due to all these little things i needed to buy. then i also bought a car charger *only way to charge my cell for the week* and a bluetooth thingy. that was expensive.

it wasnt that bad. i mean, really, i put the walmart stuff on the credit card, my kohls on my kohls card *i just bought a pair of shorts and a shirt there* and i paid my best buy stuff in cash from what i had gotten outta M&I when i closed that account the other day. so nothing actually came outta the $2200 of the $2300 we need in, like, 3ish weeks. which is good. me and chris each get paid twice more before thats all even owed too. that makes me giddy. and my mom is still giving us the $200. so well definitely have enough.

carries ex, and maybe bf again when he gets back *dont ask* Josh, might be a roommate possibility. we were talking with carrie about it the other day anyway, cuz she spent the night here. when he gets back hes gonna have to live with roni and mike cuz you know, he needs somewhere to be, and then theres also the fact that technically hell still be in the navy cuz hes taking his leave before he actually gets out so he cant get another job. and hes not exactly looking forward to living with all of them. so we told carrie that as long as he can accept our rules (no obscene loudness, especially during the day when were sleeping, no smoking in the apartment, no parties, and a split in rent *$260, and 1/3 of electric*) its kewl. well take him in. its not like we dont have the room….

so *shrug* that might happen. we shall see.

anyway, im going to go play WoW and read and stuff. its so weird to be awake right now… last night i kept myself awake until 730pm, and kept waking up all night and having to force myself back to sleep till i finally gave up around 530am. so i should be able to keep myself awake no problem till 10 tonight, and thatll get me right for the week. i tell you, it is no easy thing to adjust to a day schedule after a nice year of 3rd.

you know why im going to relish this vacation so much? im not getting another one till my wedding…. in a year….

*sigh* and before the actual day ends, you know thats not a "vacation" gah.

im going now. maybe to cry a lil on the endless year of work facing me… and the to do something else.

mana, let me know if youll be able to come up at all, and if anyone else wants to to. maybe ill send something out on facebook or something… though its a bit late… blarg.

I’m gonna try. My mind doesn’t get around “next weekend” right now, I’m just trying to pretend that I don’t have to work on Monday. But, so you know, Natalie’s baby shower is on the 2nd if you can come to that too. I’m supposedly planning it, but since I have no idea how to do such a thing, I think Mom’s actually doing that. *shrugs*
