I just got home from a Dodgers game that I went to with my half brother, my nephew and niece and I guess my step niece. It was a good time. The Dodgers won, of course. I’m a converted fan. I’ll always be a Mariners’ fan first, followed by the Yankees, but since both are in the American league, I can safely put the Dodgers first for my team in the National League. So, yeah. Think blue!

And, as a sidenote, my roommate has now morphed into super bitch. Ignoring me. My favorite incident? I’m sitting on the couch this afternoon reading a book with the a/c on because it was freaking 99 DEGREES outside. She comes in, on the phone, laughing her stupid laugh that sounds like a dying hyena, and turns off the a/c. Right in front of me. I was so pissed I was shaking. I turned it back on and came upstairs. She didn’t say anything and I left soon after for the game. I mean really? Part of me wants to move out NOW but since I don’t know what I’m doing for sure yet, I’m kinda stuck. My cousin, yes the bitchy one that I always complain about, offered to let me housesit this weekend while they go away. But I think my roommate and her bf are going away anyways, so I’ll have to see. Their house has free laundry and is quiet. Mine has a/c. Hmm, hard choice.

Oh and my half brother and nephew offered to drive my stuff back to WA for me. Not sure how much sense that makes economically as we’d have to pay for their gas and hotels and food, but it would be cheaper than the movers who quoted me $800!!!

And I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that very soon I could be living in WA. And that makes me really, really sad. So I’m trying to enjoy my time here. The museums on Tuesday, Santa Barbara yesterday, In ‘n Out and the Dodgers game tonight, weekend plans with friends, etc. I just feel so sad and torn. Ugh.

Ok this post is WAY too long. And I’m too tired to write anymore. :)

I’m here!

I’ve arrived. I’m in my new apartment. It was a long journey. 1100 miles and 2 days in the car. Through 109 degree heat and fires burning. We spent the night in the hotel and it was a terrible night of sleeping. My brother snores so loud I could not sleep. Add in the fact I barely slept the night before due to excitement and sadness, I was wrecked. Still recovering.

We arrived Friday, unloaded my car and headed to my cousins. We had dinner and watched a commercial being filmed at her neighbor’s house. Crazy! Saturday my brother and I hit about 10 stores looking for furniture, household goods, etc. He was not happy. He hates shopping and let me know it. Oh well, one day didn’t kill him. Then he went out to dinner with his friend who lives near me and I had dinner with my cousin at her neighbor’s house. They are a very nice family and it was fun. Their house is amazing. Like out of Better Homes and Gardens amazing.

Today we drove my brother to the airport and I did more shopping. It never ends! Then I finished unpacking and setting my room up. Looks pretty good too. I just wish I had my bed. The air mattress isn’t amazing. I had dinner with my cousin and the family out and then hit up the grocery store. I am so tired that I could fall asleep on this very comfortable couch I am sitting on as I type this, but I’m trying to stay up a bit longer. It’s only 8pm!

I met my temporary roommate and she’s pretty nice. She said my permanent roommate is pretty cool so hopefully we work out living together. The complex is cute. It’s small and centered around a pool. Which is pretty sweet in my book. I’m going to lay out there tomorrow hopefully. I have more stores to go to (crazy, I know) and the gym. Never ends. And I have to start looking for a job. I have an interview this week but I’m not sure it’s what I want to do. We’ll see. More to come…

T-minus 2 days

Well, my car is loaded and there’s only a few things to throw in. I sent 4 big boxes today and have one more to send tomorrow. I like packing because everything ends up clean. And organized. I’m not looking forward to unpacking and putting things in their new place though. I’m a compulsive un-packer so I’ll be itching to do that as soon as I arrive in Major City.

I’m starting to get sad. I feel like a bad child for leaving my parents. I know my brother lives here and that helps, but I just feel bad. I know I can’t live at home forever nor do I want to. Its a good thing that I’ll only be a 2 hour flight away I suppose. At least I’m not moving to Australia or even Texas, ya know? But that’s not helping the tightness in my stomach and the sudden urge to cry :(

And I am still thinking about my friend S. I spoke to my two college friends today who know him and they both said just to let things play out. Which I had planned on doing. We’ll see.

Off to watch “Love in the time of Cholera”

I don’t know!

I seriously cannot take it if one more person asks me when I’m moving to MC. Seriously. I may freak out on them. It’s getting to the point that I get asked about 5 times a day. And it’s usually by the people who I’ve explained the situation to countless times. Do they not remember? Are they stupid? Are they trying to be annoying? I don’t know. And I think a lot of it is to do with people wanting to visit me there. Because some of them have said as much. I’m fine with my close friends and family visiting, but not some random college friend I speak to once a year. My home there isn’t going to be a free hotel for ya’ll. GRRR.

Speaking of moving, no word. I called three temp agencies there yesterday and had to leave messages, and no one has called me back. The temp agencies here are acting the same. I’m applying to every position I see and I hear nothing. So I’m a little frustrated here.

Normally I’d be headed to the gym right now, but I’m taking today off. I can’t bear the thought of the EFX or the treadmill for the millionth time. And I decided against going to the step class this morning in my hazy half-asleep state. Which I now regret, but oh well. There’s always tomorrow. I think I may head to the mall and look for clothes for Vegas instead. But I do feel slightly guilty for not working out… Now I’ll be down to 5 days this week instead of 6.

New location

So I moved from Blogger for some other features only available on WordPress. We’ll see how it goes. I’m not too sure I’m in love with the layout, but that’s easily changed.

Wow, my life is boring! Alas, that will all change in March!
