Just a day

Its been a busy day. Busy day at work, and busy day since I got home. So much to do. I put a bid in on a house last week, but unfortunately, the seller refused to come down on his price. Since he was asking waaay to much, I'm looking at other houses. I'm really hoping to have settled on a place and be ready to move by the end of October at the latest. I don't want to be trying to move after the weather has turned pretty cold. Tilby and I have been working on a comedy routine. Keeps us busy, and we find it very entertaining, so I guess thats the point. I figure we should have a decent amount of material together within a week or two. We might even check and see if any of the local bars has an amatuer comedy night. Who knows? Maybe someday you can all say you knew about us before we were famous. :)

Twists and Turns

Why is it that some people's road of life is so twisted? Some people have the benefit of a nice straight road. Not me. Every time I turn around I am faced with some new and challenging problem that could very well change the direction of my entire life. When I was younger, I always thought that after high school I would go to college, get a good job, eventually marry and settle down with 2 or 3 kids. Look at where I am now. I'm 25 years old, with no real college education. I'm working a decent job, but its not at all what I thought I would do. I'm getting a divorce, and I have a son who is going to be 7 or 8 at the youngest before I can give him any siblings. And thats only if I even have more kids. I've been shown time and time again how unpredictable life can be, but for some reason, it never ceases to amaze me. Above all else, there is one thing that suprises me more than anything else. I seem to have an uncanny ability to find love. The ending of each of my serious relationships has been.... disastrous to say the least. But each time, I pick myself up and find myself falling in love with someone new. I feel rather guilty about it since my divorce isn't even final, but its happened again. When I decided to divorce my husband, I figured I'd buy a house, pick up some college courses, and in general move on with my life. Now everything is up in the air again. A lot of that has to do with the fact that my current flame is from California. Do I want to move there? Does he want to move here? Or should we meet somewhere in the middle? So many questions that I don't have answers for. I don't want to think it to death, but this is a BIG decision. I have plenty of time to think about it. I'm not moving anywhere until next summer at the earliest. I do have my son to think about. I'm not pulling him out of school in the middle of the school year. I guess my best bet here is to just give it some more time.

Slow day

Today has just been one of those odd days. I've been insanely busy, but the day has just crawled by. It was nonstop at work all day, then as soon as I got off I had to rush home, pick up Tilby and the kids, then off to see some houses. But I've been bored off my ass all day. Why is that? Am I really that hard to entertain? I never thought so before. I have a serious case of the blahs. I don't want to watch tv. Don't want to play World of Warcraft (which is so odd for me). I thought about just going to bed but I'm not really all that tired. I think I'm just getting overloaded. Joey is getting ready to start school again, so I have to get him ready for that. Getting used to day shift has been hard since I had to totally change my sleep schedule. I'm getting my divorce as soon as I can get the money to file. I have to take Joey to St. Louis in september so his eye specialist can put him under anesthesia so they can get a better look at his eyes. I just have so much on my plate that I think my poor brain needs to rest.

Buying a home

Buying a house is a scary proposition. I've never really thought about all the work that goes into owning your own home. Taxes and insurance, and a dozen other things that I never knew about. But I really believe that it will all be worth it. In a few short months I will have the keys to my first house. I already have a loan and I'm in the process of picking a home now. I'm so nervous. I want to find a house that fits my needs but isnt going to cost an arm and a leg. Wish me luck guys. I may need it.

Absent thoughts

I was just thinking to myself just now. I had a thought that was, well, interesting. I want to go out and get totally smashed. I mean so drunk I can't stand up straight. And now that Tilby is home, I don't see any reason to wait. Cmon guys! Lets go get shit faced. Jillian! Make Chem e-mail me and tell me what weekend you guys have off. Then we can all ship our kids to their grandparents houses and go out!
