it's getting better all the time

I've been kinda stressed lately. there's so much just bothering me. I've been having an on-going battle with my school since the first day I started going there, what with them taking the money I paid them and then saying I never paid and now there was a $900 charge from when they dropped and reinstated me, which they dropped for me. only to drop my spring '11 classes because they made the deadline at noon. who the fuck makes a deadline at noon? anyways, finally got that straightened out only to have them not even have my statement up. I just got it paid, so hopefully I got mom's bank shit right.

and now I'm the only file clerk at my dealership. apparently the girl they hired after me just stopped coming/said she was sick and no one heard from her after that. so that's fun. they've had me up at the Dodge building to help straighten up their filing room so my office down in the Mazda building can get behind, as if I already wasn't because that's why I was hired. and I work every day and every other Saturday now, which doesn't bother me because it means more money but it also means so much more work. I almost like being at the Dodge building more because I know most of the people up there and they actually talk to me instead of staring at me through my office window (it looks out into the shop, it's not like people are just creepin' around). I just feel like I could get burnt out with working and going to school, something I've never done at the same time. I've also been told I need to save up $500 to fix my tire rods/struts. with all the money we've spent on my car, we could've easily bought me a new car. things would be easier if my aunt had actually asked her son if he still had the suspension for my car but whatever, I need to let go of that.

I'm just really glad that Bryan and I are going to his mom's this weekend. there may not be anything to do down there since it's a little shit hole hick town that's only known for it's dairy and college, but it's nice to get away from everything every once in a while. plus we're getting our hair done which is overdue for the both of us. mainly because 3 months after I got mine done last, I still hate because it reminds me of mom hair and I'm not a mom hair person.

I also ordered the boots I've been dying over and Kirby's Epic Yarn, but that can wait for another time because I'll probably make a ~lol look at what I bought with my real grown up money~ post because I'm gonna go to Ulta sometime soon. oh me and my consumer, money wasting ways.

Texas state woes

I love my state, I really do. I will defend it as the best state in the whole, entire United States. But trying to get a hold of someone for something important, like obtaining your driving record because you were too poor to do so before? You just might as well say fuck it. I feel ready to flip a table on someone but it could be because it's Monday morning and everyone acts like they don't know how to function this early. at this point, I don't even care about getting the refund I deserve. I just want my record so I can get my defensive driving done and not have to sit in jail/pay the rest of my ticket. good thing I can print this form off in the comfort of my own home and don't have to go to my local DPS* because that would suck

in other, non-bitching news: I'M 99% DONE WITH CHRISTMAS PRESENT STUFF. I love Christmas and I won't even lie about loving presents, BECAUSE I DO. it turns me into a hyper little kid who wants, and does, to wake their parents up at 4 am to do presents. IT MAKES ME THAT EXCITED. I even did stockings for my parents, sister, and Bryan which was really exciting for me. I think I may get my mom a few more ~meaningful~ things for hers because all I really have is a pack of lighters, pens (she loves pens, okay), and candy. I thought of getting her this little juice box type thing of white wine but Bryan told me that was stupid which I didn't so boo on you, mister. maybe I'll even get her some thrift store stuff, she loves that place. I think I did pretty good with them, considering I spent more than planned at Target. I'll totally get pictures on Christmas day because why ruin the surprise for everyone?

and just so this entry isn't incredibly boring/bitchy, check out my new (for 2009) jam. I'm convinced it's about my life, if I were a Canadian rapper. it's even my ringtone.
