This has been a fairly relaxed week at work, I finished Animal Farm -- George Orwell and yeah...pretty scary book, just because there's evidence of it in real life. The propaganda. I'm excited to finish the final book in Piers Anthony's Incarnations series...kind of just so I can finally read some other stuff. I mean, it's good and I like it, but reading seven books of pretty much the same style kind of gets grating. This time I only borrowed three books from the library, instead of twelve. I'm going to finish them too. I've actually gotten somewhere in unpacking too this week. While I have this huge pile of clothes on my chair, I have three boxes that are empty now. The pile of clothes are the ones that I need to try on again and decide if I want to keep them or not. I'm drastically thinning out my closet. I'm still going to bring up a ton of clothes, but hopefully,I'll actually wear all of them. I should just get rid of most of this stuff and expect to be able to go shopping for new stuff.

In other news, I got to hang out with Megan and Jamey yesterday, we hung out at Megan's house and had fraps and just chatted for two hours. *sigh* that's why I can call them my best friends, I never worry about them not being there. The three of us haven't hung out for about a year or so, but nothing has changed. Sometimes when I hang out with them one-on-one, I'm amazed at how to extremes they've gone, but they're still the same :). So many good HS memories. They were basically high school for me, throughout all of the boys that I went through, they were the constant. Yesterday was the first time in ages that I didn't drag a boy along with me. And surprisingly, we barely touched upon the topic of boys. Jamey showed Megan her pictures of Eli and that was pretty much it. I don't really know if there's anyone that really wants to get to know me (besides the obvious ones) but let me tell ya, it's not easy. I open up pretty easily, but the whole 'clicking' thing is hard. I can tell you my life story and you won't really feel like you know me any better. I think it has something to do with the whole trust issue. What I think of when I think of a good friend right now, is someone who is going to go with me to stuff and has coffee chats and is just like, hey, I'm going to this store to look for this, you wanna come? But first I have to feel like I can call that person up whenever and just be like, hey, there's this going on, or, I'm bored, what's up? And actually, that's pretty damn rare for me. I'd rather amuse myself than go through the hassle of getting someone else to amuse me :)

Don't let what I just said discourage you though you know?

Sorry, my bad, school starts on the 29th, a Wednesday.

So, I'm slowly trying to get my clothes organized. I'm taking my clothes out of boxes and then putting clothes that I don't want anymore back into those empty boxes. It's a slow process because there's some stuff which I don't know if I like anymore, but I can see how I could maybe wear them again, so they're in the 'gotta try on' pile. But since I'm on the phone with Zach when I'm sorting all this stuff out, I can't very well try on these clothes. So then while I'm generally fighting entropy, I'm still creating a little pile of entropy...on my bed...again. (For those of you who don't remember, I had a HUGE pile of clothes on my bed for the first two or so weeks of summer, every time my parents did laundry, it increased.)

The Castle is playing at the Battelle Aud. this Friday at 8. I hope to be able to go :) It's supposed to be funny.

I am so unstressed now. I thought I was going to have to make a rush trip to Seattle for a TC appointment but it turns out all he wants to do is get my fall schedule worked out, and I took a look at it, and I'm going to have to switch Psych sections, drop my law class and also arch 150, which is super sad because that's the one that I was going to take with Zachie-kun :|. I'm going to add two TC classes and the super good thing is that all my classes will be in a block and I only have psych on Fridays :) only 14 credits though.

You know what annoys me with this new blogger? It blogs the time that you started blogging, and not the end time... So someone could check my blog and then later, the blog could show up being like an hour before the time the person checked.

I've completely given up toting my camera around. Everyone'll have to bug Diane for pictures of SK and Maxine (and Zach)'s visit to the Tri-Cities. Diane even got a good picture of our bowling score, the first game Diane and I had the lowest scores, I didn't even make 50. But the second game I got 90 and Diane broke 100, and then on the third game I got 116! :) yeah, gotta roll that sucker down. Anyway, it was an awesome weekend, had brunch with everyone then Zach and I wandered around Best Buy and Michael's and talked shop about pc games. Then we went and had some coffee/chai with Jamey and chatted for a good hour and a half and even got to see her super hyper pup and an even fatter Daisy. Seriously, that dog is like a log. Then we watched The Princess Diaries, which was pretty cute but a little too teenagerish with Mandy Moore and all that. But now I'm all primed to watch The PD 2, which comes out on the 11th apparently. Ahhhhh, school starts on the 28th!! My last day of work is on the 24th!!! My summer will officially be four days long lol. Yeah I know, I planned this one out real well. I guess it's not imperative for me to get a job during the school year then although if I think I can handle it, I'll try to snag something easy yet beneficial for my major yet will not require me to work lots of hours. I'd do it more for the experience and resume perks than for the $$$. Pfff loans...plenty of time to pay those off later.
