EDITED: Higgledy-Piggledy

 So…

I realized that I haven’t been updating.  So here’s a quick update.

1.  All of my friends, with the exception of Wendi and Jodie, are currently pregnant.  I’m not kidding.  Every single one of them is due between the last week of May and the last week of June.  No kidding.  That’s FOUR showers I’ll be going to between now and the last week of June.  That’s a lot of gifts to buy during the busiest and most expensive time of my year.  Crap.

2.  I’m still single. 

3.  My father is not being an ass.  Surprisingly enough.  He even seems eager to have me vacation with the family this year.  (It’s rather impossible seeing that I’m the designated Children’s Librarian during the summer months and I’ve got a crapload planned, but still … it was the thought that counts.  And I wouldn’t have gone even if I were busy.  I hate Myrtle Beach.  I should get out of these parentheses now.)  Never mind.  He’s still an ass.  I should never ever ever say that he’s being good or that he’s not being an ass ever again.  I always fucking jinx it. *(Look at bottom of page)

4.  I’m thoroughly in love with Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy as evidenced by previous entry.  No, seriously.  Anyone want to kidnap Martin Freeman and send him to me for an early birthday present?

5.  Shit.  Birthdays.  On May 31st I will be 28 years old.  What have I accomplished?  Let’s see…

         a) Not killing my father

         b) Surviving two bouts of pneumonia and a house fire.

         c) There isn’t a C.  I just didn’t feel like ending with a ‘b’.

6.  I’m still crap with remembering to send things off in the mail.  I have a package sitting on my bookcase for a good friend in England that I’ve had sitting there for an entire YEAR.  *grumble*  *kicks self* 

7.  I’m currently rereading The DaVinci Code – why, you ask?  Because it’s the Illustrated Edition.  It’s absolutely fascinating.  It makes me want to write. 

8.  We had a dinner last night with my grandmother, aunt, uncle, and my three cousins.  Our house was very full.  I thoroughly enjoy spending time with my Granny.  I definitely need to go see her more.  From now on, whenever I go into Augusta I’m going to go visit her.  It’s not that far and she’s not going to be here forever…

9.  My most recent ex… if you could call him an ex-boyfriend… *shrug*  Anyway, Guy was what I called him way back when (if any of you read me four years ago…) and he’s recently broken up with his girlfriend.  My friends now think that we are “a match made in heaven”.  Excuse me while I gag on this spoon.  *gags*  I liked Guy.  I did.  But unfortunately he’s a little too much of a … well, to be quite blunt, a redneck.  I’m not into watching NASCAR on Sundays or spending my Friday evenings at the local High School football game.  I don’t like beer and I’m not fond of going frog-gigging.  I don’t enjoy spending my weekends fishing or outdoors at all.  I’m a girly-girl who likes to sit at home, watch movies, and read books.  Is there something wrong with me because of that??  *sigh* 

10.  Do you know how excited I was when I got to work this morning and realized that the trailers for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe were online?  I think I squealed outloud.  I’m such a geek.

So, I guess I’ll go now.  YOu’re filled in and up-to-date with me.  =o)

*hugs all around*

Much love to you all!!

*So.  My mother had decided she didn’t want my father to have a cell phone.  Why, you ask?  Well because the ass uses it to call his girlfriend.  OH YES.  His girlfriend.  Oh and that’s also how he gets in touch with his drug buddies.  So.  When he came back after the “near divorce”, he had it cut off and promised to never have another because she can’t fucking trust him to tell her what he’s doing with it.

What does she get in the mail yesterday?  A “Welcome to Verizon” letter.  Because my Father got a cell phone on April 14th.  And guess who I’ve been seeing more lately at the library?  My father’s fucking girlfriend.  Damn asshole.  Oh and he’s doing the drugs again.  Oh yeah.  I hate him.  I hate him hate him hate him.  *sigh*  *kicks Father*
