3:21 PM
my spring break sucked like a hoover. scratch that, make it a dyson. with the exception of some good quality time with my family (despite the fact that the quality time was forced by unexpected angioplastic heart surgery) and some brief quality time with a couple good friends. I only got to hang out with two friends over vacation. i repeat TWO friends. Well, no, scratch that. I did get to hang out with some high school kids and aaron, nick, jonny and tyler on saturday night but to be completely honest, i felt a little out of the loop. none of my closest friends were there and with the exception of little bo, i had no one to talk to. i actually went shopping by myself saturday afternoon. when i got to kearney and was all set to purchase some goodies from the mall, i realized that my debit card was slipped into the pocket of the jeans i had on the night before. so there i was, in kearney, no money, no debit card, no checks. ugh. what a waste. i did remember, however that i had a paycheck that needed cashing so i drove around kearney trying to find a wells fargo that was open. luckily, after gettting lost, i happened to stumble upon the bank. after that sunday night was just another boring night as were many of my nights. i got to "cruise" with holly like the good ole' days and it was good times. on wednesday i had to wake up at 5:30 in the morning to take my dad to lincoln to the hospital to have heart surgery. it was such a long day. he came out beautifully, ready and raring to go. so that night i stayed at my brothers house. picture this... three parallel boards much like this I I I. these boards are covered by fabric and in between them there are various springs. this is what i slept on. it was rough. but i got through that and woke up at 4:00 in the morning the next day to drive on home. the winds were aweful on the drive home. so between the nagging winds and my nagging mother the drive home was as rough as the stay on that wretched couch. somewhere between all this i developed a cold that is killing me. i cant hear out of one ear, cant breath, coughing, and who knows what else and yet though all this i managed to find the will to go shopping with meghan. i bought a pair of shoes and a throw blanket. the following evening was a hoppin scrapbooking party at holly's house with a whole one guest there...me. it was fun though, i have to admit. so i went home to play a few hands of cards with my parents and to finish packing as i was told that i have to work on saturday so i was leaving on saturday morning. so this morning i was woke up at 7:00 and was pushed out of home and back, yet again, on the road to lincoln. so, i arrive in lincoln at 11:30 and knowing that my dorm doesnt open until 1:00, i had some time to kill. so i went to the mall to kill some time and to enjoy lunch. well, my lunch sucked but i managed to buy an adorable shirt at charlotte russe. i return to the dorm at 1:03 and the doors are locked. fuck. so i panic for a few minutes and check out the other dorms. finally i spot 2 people in smith. i bang on the glass for a good five minutes just to find out that our doms open at 1:00 on SUNDAY. fuck. now what. i get back in my car and burst into tears. i cant help it. this has been the most worthless week of my life. i am so upset. i finally get calmed down and get a plan of attack to realize that i forgot my shoes for work in my dorm and rush to shopko to buy a cheap pair of dress shoes. I finally pull myself together and get to work, changing in the bathroom, putting on make-up because my entire face was smudged with black mascara. After welcoming myself to work i begin chatting with some co-workers to discover that i wasnt supposed to come in today. she had schedualed me for tomorrow night instead of today. ugh. but they decided just to "let" me stay and work tonight. so here i am, sick, tired, and working. i am the most unlucky person in the world. ugh.
