I can't believe I used to update this blog every day and now I'm lucky if I get in a weekly entry. I just don't have the time and my life isn't exactly as drama filled as it used to be. And that's definitely a good thing.

School is going. I really wish I could just be done. I'm tired of having no money, of having too much homework, of having to sit through boring lectures when I'd much rather be OUT THERE. My teachers are okay and I do like Century but school just seems like old news. I know everyone says that an education is so important but so is getting experience and I don't feel like I'm getting enough of that. I feel restless. I want to move on with it.

Work is work. Suddenly we've gotten very busy, I'm sure due to the fact that the Starbucks down the street is closed so we're now getting their customers (some of who are becoming our customers). The last two days I've barely had time to breathe, let alone get things done at a normal pace. But... I don't feel like I really get any appreciation for it. Tracy always saying stuff like, "You're a star" and "Thanks for being so awesome" but it's so generic. I know she pretty much figures I'm just another person she has to boss around. It's obnoxious. This is yet another reason I wish I was done with school, so I can find a job a little bit better than getting bossed around but some airhead.

I have to say I'm a little annoyed with Aunt Gayle. She's been dating this guy Mark, which is all find and good, but he's changing her and I don't think it's for the better. When she was married to Gary and when she was dating her ex she still always paid attention to the e-mails I sent her and sent me e-mails with more than just what's going on between her and Mark. However, since she's been dating this guy all she can talk about is him and it's not that I'm not happy about her. But what about the rest of her life? The thing that bums me out the most is that she won't even be at Thanksgiving this year. I feel like I've lost a friend. I'm so trying not to be selfish, I want her to be happy. But since when did men come between female bonds?

The girls are good. Sounds like Amber's settled into married life and I can't wait to take a trip to LaX with Shan for a girls only weekend. Shan's busy planning her wedding and New Years and I try to spend at least a day a week with her so I can still remember what it's like to be a girl, lol. I'm super excited for Halloween, especially since Shan and Ryan will be there so that when D's doing his schmoozing thing I'll have some friends of mine own around. I've e-mailed a bit with Jen and it sounds like after Shan's wedding she'll be coming to stay with me till she heads back to Englad, so that should be good. Maybe we can reconnect after the last (bad) visit. I feel bad because I haven't talked to Lewann in awhile but, then again, she hasn't exactly called me either. And Christine... I don't know. I invited her out to D's for the PJ party and she told me to call and remind her. I called AND texted her and she didn't even get back to me to tell me she couldn't. It's hard to be mad at Christine because she's so.... well, she's CHRISTINE. But I can't stand people that flake out like that and this is far from the first time she's done it.

Dustin is Dustin. God I am so in love with him. Sometimes it seems so fast, only nearly three months. But other times I swear I've been with him a lifetime already. And maybe with anyone else that would seem so played out and cliche but with D it just seems absolutely right. The fact that we've had multiple conversations about marriage and kids and I don't have to feel weird about that makes me feel so GOOD. I knew when I met D there was something there. Hell, I chased him for almost a year before I got him. And sometimes I wish it wouldn't have taken so long for us to come together. Then again, I have to be thankful because maybe I wouldn't have seen him as well, what with Wrong being in the picture. Sometimes I just want to move everything forward... I'm too impatient. And other times I just want to pause the moment that we're in forever and ever, just stay with him underneath the covers, curled into his body, held tightly and safely with his breath on my neck.

Life.

More soon.
