HOKAY, SO. I've delayed posting this for a while because I'm a puss and don't really enjoy the negativity I get when I post things like "Oh hay guys I's engaged lol"... But this is in that same vein and it had to come out sometime. Like, now. Time is short.
( plans under a cut )
Tl;dr I am moving to Texas Oklafuckinghoma. This week (told ya I'm a puss). Going crazy with planning. Am still happy (just not about Oklafuckinghoma). That's how it goes. And that is why I said I may be disappearing for a while.

So as of 4pm Wednesday, I am offically unemployed. Willingly, this time. For the most part. Still a little emo about it. So some friends took me hiking so I could enjoy some splendor, then I saw Star Trek a second time. It's still awesome. Did random hanging out today, which was fun. Had to cut it short though cuz of unrelated drama. Is mostly better now. Stuff is difficult and frustrating. Life as usual.
As I cannot slepe right now, I'm doing laundry. It seriously needed doing. Tomorrow, the plan is to stop by work to pick up the next to last paycheck, then everything's up in the air. Should probably try to clean up the cave a bit but I doubt that's happening. Ehehe. Saturday it's hopping on a plane to Oklahoma (where the wind comes sweepin' down the plains)* again. Fucking Oklahoma. After that, up in the air again. Likely to disappear for a while. Won't be missed. Not much anyway, y/y? ^^;
Ahahaha so dizzy.
*It's like a compulsion, I swear. A stupid compulsion.

Aaaaarrrrg, busy work was busy. Stupidity! Some cranky fucktard tried to break one of the u-scan registers because he almost lost a dime. Randomly! At the end of my shift I bought a $5 scratchoff on a whim. Won $60. Profit!

So... actually I'll start with Friday. I was off work, as was Dad cuz he gets Fridays off now. So we sat on the deck and shot off some rounds with the .22... or one of 'em anyway, I forget how many we actually have. I shot good, and he was all 'rifle match tomorrow come shoot? :D' So we got up ass-early and went to his gun club's range for this match. And we showed up a good hour and a half early cuz he'd mixed up the time. Oops.
So, this match. It was fun. Just sit at a bench and pop the targets, 20 minutes to hit 25 circles. And the results?
I GOT SECOND PLACE. BOOYAH. I was one point away from tying for first, with one of the best shooters in the club. Matched him at bullseyes though, w00t. And I won $45 to boot. And and I'm apparently the first girl to win (or place really high) in one of their matches. And none of them will shut up about how well I did. XD
But yeah. I can shoot. This whole thing prolly counts as a brag but why the hell not? I hardly ever have something to brag about.
Then it rained a lot, I worked and it was busy as hell, and afterwards I slept terribly. That was Saturday.
Yesterday? STAR TREK. Mom's been geeking out about it as much as I have, so we all went for Mother's Day. It was omgawesome. Seriously. Sister's supposed to come to town next weekend and we'll probably go see it again. And I may go with Eddie when he gets back in town. I liked it that much.
That's pretty much it. Overall a great weekend, yay.

So, I've been lazy. Here's my clusterfuck of an update.
Epic roadtrip was epic. I do not like Oklahoma. Got directed to the wrong damn family day thing, but everything else was friggin' awesome. So damn good to see the boy again. Wore a dress and was pretty. Had a nice manicure and eyebrow waxing (fucking OW!). Got it from an ex Marine, such badassery. Could not drive back, as rental places don't do long distance one-way rentals. However, had a Mazda 5 for the weekend, which I loved. Wanna try to get it again when I go back. Anyway. Was gonna take a bus back. 24-hour ride, bleh. Acquired an Ipod for entertainment on said ride. Missed the bus. Took a plane for the first time in nearly a decade. It was fun. Saw a bit of the Dallas/Ft. Worth airport, and got to ride the speedytrain in Atlanta again, finally. HELL YES.
Worked. Hung out with Jen a helluva lot. Good times. Have been Simming entirely too much. Got back into Arcanum. Again. Helped Eliza move out of the apartment. No more apartment, alas. Recycled close to a year's worth of booze bottles. Fun! Almost got a tattoo. Waiting till later. Still haven't cleaned up. Got back in touch with Jeri, w00t. Need to work on same with other friends, seriously. I suck, you guys. May take up knitting. At the very least will play at it. I has pretty yarn and stabby sticks.
Last day of work is the 20th, because I can. Will miss the coworkers. Retrieving the boy from the hell that is Oklahoma weekend after that. Afterwards, slacking, trip to Gatlinburg, raid on White Water (first waterpark ever woo!), raid on Six Flags, and hopefully raid on Lake Winnie. June will be busy.

Yes. It's can be epic roadtrip time again. The boy graduates Basic on Thursday, woo! Super excited. To boot, I get to ride back by myself. 900 mile solo drive, yo! So I ponied up for a paid account again so I can... I dunno, make goofy phone posts on the way back or something. Whoop.
Gonna burn me some roadtrip soundtrack while I'm out there. I'll need it.
Also, I fucking hate packing. Arrrrg.
Also also, I love that my parents wait till just now to ask if Eliza can keep Reven for the week. When she's in class. For another five hours. Brilliant planning, there.

Am still alive. Have done taxes. Pretty good return. Looking forward to that. Not looking forward to probably throwing it at the bill collectors, but still.
I have tea. LOTS OF TEA.
Was thinking "Oh hey, if I end up being off on the 14th maybe there'll be some MomoCon" but then I realized that's this Saturday and I'm scheduled to work half the night. Whoops. So no Momo for me again, oh well. There was a fair chance I'd have had a good time this time, too. Go figure. Would rather work! ...Usually.
Instead (would've been also but is now instead), RenFaire, bitches! Trying for opening weekend, anyone wanna come along? :D :D Also seriously considering hitting the one up in Tennessee. Haven't been to that one before.
Get to see him soon. SOON, DAMMIT.

Y halo thar livejournal. Still alive, woo.
So. Today has been some kind of epic. Not in the good way though. They're making noises about snow tonight, so of course everyone's all "ZOMG NEED GROCERIES NAO" even though we likely won't see even a single flake. But it was stupidbusy for most of the afternoon and evening. To boot, the night office person was pretty damn sick and wasn't able to make it in till freakin' 9pm. I'm not faulting him for it, just dayum. I basically had to run the front end by myself for about four hours. Not so great since I can't do loans or get into the safe if people need cash in their tills. Had to just gank money out of a drawer in the office and write down what I did so it could be put in the system later. Whee! And I didn't get to go on break till 10 cuz there was no one to watch the desk. So I had break, then got off a half hour after that. Fun times. Overall though the problems were blessedly minimal. Helps also that the management's awesome. I guess I handled things decently enough, anyway.
Needless to say I'm freakin' exhausted. I came out half an hour shy of having a full 40 hours for the week. Gaaaaah. Sweet sweet paycheck, but gah. Would be less tired if I hadn't picked up a shift Thursday, but dammit I cave when people beg me for things. Begging and whining, my greatest weaknesses. ~_~;;;
...Why the hell am I still awake? Damn you, insomnia, damn you. *fistshake*

Still alive, woo. It's been a bit of a week.
Well, up to Friday was a week, anyway. Eliza got me flowers! *dance dance* So now I can't say no one's given me flowers. :D :D And we checked out that Fuji restaurant, and it's awesome. A little pricey, but that's kinda the nature of hibachisushi places innit. But very very good, so go try it sometime if you're in Dalton!
So, is Valentine's Day, and the boy's not here. Guess that's alright, not like we do anything romantic anyway. Haha. And I got work later, so that would kill the day altogether. Bah.
Also the tile looks awesome, but there's not enough furniture back in here to keep it from echoing something awful. And the fireplace does indeed look fabulous. Next: painting! Yay, fumes!
Anyway. Happy Over-Commercialized Romantic Holiday. <3

Realized yesterday that I'd missed my chiropractor appointment. Fffffuck. Will try going maybe Monday, since I'm off.
And! The parental units decided to have the carpet torn out in the livingroom, hall, and dining room, and are having pretty tile laid instead. Whee! So I'm moving back to Apartmentland for a week to stay out of the way. I get roommates again! *dance* Andand, my cousin Mitchell's doing the tile, and he knows a guy who does rock. So that guy's gonna fix our fireplace and make it awesomesauce. Yay!
(Srsly, have y'all seen the fireplace? It needs a makeover badly. ...Just like the rest of the house, really. >.> The builders were on crack!)
So... yeah. I think I had something else but I forgot what it was. Bollocks. Gotta go to work soon anyway. Double bollocks.
Am missing the boy. It makes me an insomniac. x.x

Wow, what the fuck, people at work complimented the hell out of me today. Rather nice, actually. Must've really looked like I needed some boosting. Kinda did. A lot.
Very tired, trying not to go crazy. Will know something definite tomorry. Must not go crazy yet. Must wait to see which way crazy to go. Worrying.

Aaarrrrrrg fucking sinuses. Can't breathe and am watery in one eye. Arrrg arrrg arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg. *froth*
In other news, dyed my hair a dark blond. Gonna wait till next week then try a couple shades lighter. Why the hell not, right? It's the only color I haven't done yet, and apparently I can get away with it.
Don't know what's going on with Eddie and it's driving me crazy.
Fucking sinuses.

Home again, whee. Had a considerably better time at the party than I expected to, which is shibby. (For the record I'd expected to have a shit time but it wound up being pretty awesome :D) Back to being a fun drunk, and managed not to vomit or have much of a hangover. Victory!
So, Obligatory New Year's Resolutions, I guess? ( whee~ )
So did everyone have a great night? Hopefully so. ^_^

Bleh, work soon. Do not want.
Heading over to Jacksonville tomorry for a partything at Harrison's. Probably gonna get completely wasted, or pretty close to. I feel like being toasted. Never been to one of his parties; hopefully there will be good times.
Here's a meme I ganked somewhere. ( 2008 In Review )

Gah. Late cards will be late. Obviously. They'll come though, so. Sorry for the lateness. ^^;;;
Got some groovy boots. Would go great with some kinda steampunk cosplay, or something. Or not. W00t.
Aaaaanyway. Happy Holidays, y'all. <3
