Saying goodbye to my twenties

Well, it had to happen sometime... didn't it?

Here we go...

Goodbye, Twenties. It was fun. We had some good times didn't we. Although we also had some tough times. But don't worry I will remember you fondly. Always. KIT. Seniors Rule! Go Class of 1996!

Whoops! Sorry about that. Habits are harder to break than I thought.

Thanks for the memories.

With Love,
Thatgirl7278

Pass the tissues

No one told me these movies were tear-jerkers!!!!

Well, at least "PS I love you" and "Finding Neverland" were. Thankfully, NOT "The film is not yet rated". That was interesting. I love me some documentaries. So thanks chica for the find. However, I must say that favorite thus far is "Finding Neverland". My thoughts are as follows:

Thoughts on "Finding Neverland":

- Johnny Depp... hummana hummana! Holy shit that man is delicious. And he never ages! How the hell is that possible? Plastic surgery? Think so? Who knows! I hope not.

-Those cute ass little British boys. Uhm... why did that sound less perverse in my head? They were/are so damn adorable.

-The plot was sweet. It was like watching a "Behind the Music" but the book version of "Peter Pan". Which oddly enough was never one of my favorite Disney movies. But I dug the characters.

-I totally heart Kate Winslet. I am convinced that if we knew each other and/or met we'd be BFFs. She is an awesome actress. Maybe even one of my top two favs.

Thoughts on "This film is not yet Rated":

-Strong documentary with a valid argument.

-Lots of dirty scenes.

-The director hired a private investigator who, in like a few weeks, found all the names of all these secret people. It was HILARIOUS!

-It was just plain smart and I felt smart watching it.

But in the end, I still liked "Finding Neverland" best.

Birthday whatevers

With my birthday coming up, the question on so many people's lips is "Do you think Friday is going to give you a ring?" and my answer every time is "No. I do not."

Mostly because I told him that he better not EVEN try and propose to me on my birthday. That is straight up lazy! I mean, if you're going to propose make it random. Don't pick my birthday, when we'll be on vacation (we're leaving town the morning after) and probably watching the sunset in one of the prettiest places in the state as your proposal setup. That would be way too easy.

Holy shit. I'm an asshole! Why did I tell him not to do that? Stupid Ari.

Besides - it's still too soon. At least I think that's what he thinks. And he's usually right.

Speaking of birthdays... I am turning thirty in less than 2 weeks. Woah.

I can't believe it's here already.

While it's not my style, I am thinking of asking for Best Buy gift cards for my birthday... with graduate school in the Fall, I need to actually suck it up and buy a laptop or PC of sorts. It's kind of about that time, I'd say. My first one and all. Anyways - is it still cool to ask for specific things for birthday presents? Or does one pass that stage at say 29? I just don't know the etiquette.

Wishing everyone a good week - may it go by fast!

DING! The Lakers are DONE!

To be honest, I could care less about last night's NBA Championship win. In fact this is what I read this morning... blah blah blah ... the Lakers are a bunch of effin' losers... blah blah blah. One sentence that DID make me stop was this one -

"You see? Defense does win championships. The Boston Celtics have proven just that. "

Ok. What?! That is a big fuck you to my Spurs and I am NOT cool with that. No shit defense wins championships. How do you think the Spurs have won four in the last ten years?! With defense you cocksucking sports writers. Ugh! That shit pisses me off. I tell you what tho - if it had been us and the Celtics, it woulda been a damn good series. Damn good. And of course, in the end, we would have won. But that's not what happened. And I guess I'm okay with that. It IS an even year afterall. So I will call it now the Spurs in '09!

Go SPURS Go!!!

Catching up w/my homies

That would be y'all. Y'all are my homies. Just clarifying.

OK!

Let's start with why I have only been averaging like one to two posts per week as of late. I'd like to say not much is going on - but it's more like "where does the time go?!?!" A couple of months ago at work, I volunteered to help with a separate grant summer program. Not really expecting it to come to fruition to be honest. Well, my prayers were answered and for the last two weeks I've been breaking my back trying to get this program off the ground, practically by myself. It feels good to be working with kids who actually WANT my help again, but at the same time it's a pain in my getting-fatter-by-the-day ass. Let's just say when I told one co-worker (another department, but still counts) what I was doing, her reply was "who'd YOU piss off?" So - as you can see, it's not exactly a position of envy. In any case, it's coming along successfully and my days are swimming by.

I've been having dreams about exes lately. Not THOSE kinds of dreams, just dreams that involve them somehow. I don't think it means anything, I just think I need to stop falling asleep with my glasses on. In any case, they are unsettling. I don't need to be spending ANYTIME thinking about those fools.

People keep asking how the whole "living together" situation is going w/Friday. And to be honest, it's going very very well. Now mind you, we've both been so busy at work that every time we're home together, we're just thankful not to be at work, but irregardless we are getting along better than ever. I have become more conscious of his little quirks, etc, but to be honest they are so insanely adorable that I love him even more because of them.

I filled out the FAFSA (Financial Aid application) the other day. That thing was a little confusing to me. And I'm going to be 30! I can only imagine what some punk 18 year old is thinking. In any case, the Federal government has decided that I am capable of contributing a little less than one-third of my yearly income (not take home!) to my graduate education. I think that the Federal government is smoking crack. Straight up! That is crazy. I barely have $500 in savings and you think I'm going to be able to drop $12k on school!?! Psh! Think again.

Or rather, I should be thinking again. About this whole going back to school thing. I still haven't paid off my undergraduate degree and now I want another one (a graduate one this time)?! Some might say that is just selfish. I just can't stay at this same level at work. I gotta be movin' on up (to the north-East [I did that on purpose] side!).

Well, my homies. I've given you plenty to digest at this point. Next post I'll discuss my "Sex & the City Movie" observations and what I plan to do on my summer vacation (psh! yeah right!).

BTW - Is the election over yet? I haven't heard much these days.

And so it starts

Last week I was in some serious pain. My throat was killing me - but not in a sore throat kinda way, just straight up pain. And my chest hurt. It felt like someone had pounded me in the chest and left bruises up and down my throat area. It also felt like something was lodged in my throat. The pain was so severe I went to bed that night at 9PM just to avoid feeling anything.

The next day I was on WebMD (love that site!), trying to self-diagnose myself and explaining my symptoms to anyone who would listen when one of my co-workers pipes up with "Oh girl, you just have heartburn!"

HEARTBURN!?!? But only old people get heartburn!!!

Well, welcome to old age Thatgirl7278.

Here's some effin' heartburn.

So the rest of the day I was tossin' back cherry-flavored, chewy (like Starburst chewy) Rolaids. Good times. It took another day to get back to normal... but still. I couldn't get over the fact that I had heartburn. That is some crazy shit. I tell you what! Because before that diagnosis I was sure it was some sort of body/bone disease and I was this close to the end. Okay - maybe not. But it sure did hurt like a sonofabitch!
