Christmas Music

Yeah that's right. Christmas music. I used to think Jon was crazy when he busted open his Christmas music in September, but today I just had a craving for some Trans Siberian Orchestra music. That's definitely a record for me. Christmas music on July 29. I guess that saying "Christmas in July" actually has some truth to it!

Just Bad

Things are just not going well. I could sit on here and type for hours complaining about all the bad things going on right now. I feel myself becoming bitter and I'm just not happy with much thats going on in my life. This isn't a good point in my life. Things just aren't going the right way. So to spare you several hours, I'll stop here. If you really want to know more, email, call, text, IM, comment, or whatever me and I'll expatiate for you.

Sunburn-o-licious

So obviously (or maybe not so obviously) this isn't my back. BUT I did get burned about that bad, or worse on my entire back. On Friday I was weeding in my backyard (topless!) for less than an hour, but I still got burned horribly. Saturday my back started to itch. I don't mean like -oh scratch my back for a second-. I mean like SCRATCH MY BACK DOWN TO THE BONE NOW WITH A WIRE BRUSH OR I WILL GO FREAKIN INSANE!!!!!! No joke. I'm telling you, I've never had anything itch so horribly in my life. Plus, when I did scratch it, it burned horribly because of my sunburn.
So now that you've heard me complain about it, you can hear the plus side. I might be completely insane from thinking this, and if I am, it's still okay. I think God is trying to get my attention. I've ignored him for so long and he's such a small part of my life that there's no other way for him to get me. You see, I've had a serious string of injuries for the past month. I'm not the kind of person that gets hurt a lot, so I'm trying to find a purpose in all my pain. I mean... why else would I be getting myself injured and burned and whatever else? Yeah, it could just be a run of my carelessness showing, but I'd rather find a good purpose in it all. What do you think?

I'm a cutter

Yep, you heard me right. I'm a cutter. Okay fine, so the cuts I have are accidents. At work I jabbed my finger open with a knife, probably should have got stitches, but I'm too cool for stitches. Then yesterday I cut myself on a crate of corn. Yeah, so my hand is jabbed up pretty good. My parents told me I need to wear leather gloves to work to protect my hands. The first cut (the really bad one) happened on last tuesday or wednesday. I dont want to get soap or water on the wound, so i havent washed that one finger. It smells NASTY. That's about all thats happenin lately

Two gone by...

Ever have an old person tell you that life goes by too fast, so enjoy it while you can? I've been told that many a time. They think I don't understand what they're talking about, but I do. Ever since like middle school, every year has gone by faster than the last.
This year/this summer I told myself that I would slow things down and enjoy this summer. I tell you what, that is going to be tough. I don't mean a little difficult. I mean inexplicably hard.
-My manager at work told me that I'd be working close to 40 hours a week.
-Plus, I'm going to need to watch my younger sister a lot (both my parents work and my other siblings aren't here).
-Also, my family wants to get season passes to Six Flags.
-And I have a girlfriend (we all know they are time suckers).
-I'm going to TRY to work on my relationship with God, too.
Yeah, I need like 20 extra hours in each day for all that stuff. It may not seem like much, but it is a crap-load for me. Hopefully, by some miracle, I will be able to fit it all in, and slow things down. I'll have to move some priorities around and shave some things away. Two weeks have already gone by, I better get crackin. We'll see if I can figure this stuff out.

A trip to the ER

Today was an exciting day! It started out with nothing special... woke up around 10, watched a movie, and Rachel came over for lunch. After lunch she headed back to work, but called me about 20 minutes later saying I need to take her to the hostible (hospital). She couldn't see out of her right and and said her head was going to explode, or so it felt. I took her there, then about 4 hours later, after all that hospital mumbo jumbo and a CAT scan, they said it was probably just a new kind of migraine for her. it must have been a nasty one, it was easy to tell she was in a LOT of pain. that's definitely the short version of the story, but thats about it. if anybody actually reads this (i know my jonny bear does) then a prayer for rachel would be nice. i'm sure she'd appreciate it! UNTIL NEXT TIME...

Cell Phones

Today, I was trying to get a hold of somebody on their cell phone. So I text them, they dont reply. I text them again, they dont reply again. I call them, and they dont answer. Why would you have a cell phone if you're not going to answer it? Not much makes me madder than when people dont answer their cell phones. I think we should start a rule that says if you dont answer your cell phone 3 times, you lose your phone privileges for LIFE! Okay, that's all i have to complain about today!
