Hmmm...

I know it's been a while since I've last posted. I've been using my myspace blog because I wanted certain people to read my entries and they don't know this blog exists.

Not too much new has been going on in my life. I was working a lot, went wine tasting for the first time, got a new car and spent a lot of time with John. Oh yea and the big one, got my ex fired from work.

Now, don't go thinking I'm just a horrible person who wants my ex miserable cause that it definitely not the case here! You see, we work together (well, I guess it's worked now) at a company owned by his brother. I had been with the company a year before he came along. In short, we started dating, we had a pretty rocky relationship that jeopardized my job many times and then 2 1/2 years later we were through. Well, him and I continued to be friends because it just seemed like the best thing to do since we had to see eachother all the time. Recently though, he'd been acting real strange. Rapid weight loss, I'd catch him drinking in his truck on lunch breaks and money started coming up missing from our satellite store when he'd be there alone. He admitted to me that he had taken the money cause he was having a rough time but he would put it back. Finally his brother came to me because he was noticing a change and I told him everything that I knew. I don't think he quite believed me. He would make excuses for why money was gone or why his brother smelled of alcohol during work. Well, one day I noticed a large amount of money missing and had to tell the boss. We did some research and everything pointed at my ex. When they questioned him, he admitted to it and was immediately terminated. I've been having a hard time with it too. To see someone I was once so close to be at such a low that he would steal from his own family is very hard. I've been working every day to just move on and get past this whole thing but it's hard. Lucky for me, John has been so amazing and it helps me see even more why I'm so glad I have him and my ex is long gone.

Corruption

To start out I'd like to say yay for me. This post makes number 4 this month which means I've met my goal.

Anywhoo. On to what I came to write about.

I have been corrupted. I didn't really notice it at first but now it's becoming more and more obvious to me and I don't know what to do about it. When I met John, I considered myself somewhat normal. I spent my time shopping, listening to music, watching movies and hanging out with friends. I now own a Wii and am constantly buying games and accessories for it. I sat in on a D&D game with John and his friends and I'm now seriously contemplating joining them in playing. I have started reading OOTS and am actually really into it. Last week I went into a comic book store by myself and at my own will. Then, last night as I'm sitting there reading OOTS, John puts in Kingdom Hearts 2 and I find myself drawn to it. I could hardly keep my eyes on my book and the scariest part is that I can't wait to get home so I can download the song from the opening where it recaps the previous game. I guess there are worse things that I could have been corrupted into. The thing is, I'm not even sure if I'm truly upset about it or just in shock over the realization. Maybe I had this geeky side to me all along and it's finally out in the open. Hmmm.

Soooo...

These past few weeks have been pretty hectic!

One of my friends from work had a heart attack and ended up having a triple bypass. He just got discharged today so I am very happy.

A close family friend ended up in the hospital and on life support. He is doing good now and if he isn't already, should be going home soon.

John moved to Colton. YAY!

I had an interview and it went pretty good. I have a trial run on Friday but more than likely I will be taking the job.

So that's what has been going on. I'll post more when things have calmed down a bit.

Hell Yeah!!!

So I saw an advance screening of Transformers tonight and it is definitely the best movie of the year by far!!! It was so completely awesome and I seriously plan on seeing it many more times while it's on the big screen. I definitely think you all should go see it!

Took me a while again...

I know that I didn't update after last weekend but it has been an incredibly long week!

After working for Hell's Kitchen (actually Harlow's Kitchen Concepts) for over 4 years now I have decided to look for a new job. The combination of hardly getting over 30 hours a week and having to deal with Milly has started to drive me crazy. There's also the fact that they make me feel guilty for wanting to take a vacation because *gasp* the owner's wife might actually have to come in and work *gasp*. In short, I just need something more stable and with a company that treats me good and has room for advancement. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I find something soon.

As for my birthday, it was good. John came over the night before and made me open up the present he bought me. It was an accessory set for my Wii Sports game. There's a tennis racket, baseball bat and golf club that the Wii remote fits into. It is super cool!!! He also got me another present but I didn't get that one until Monday. He got me a pink tennis racket and pink tennis balls. I can't wait to play with any of my presents! On the day of my birthday, we sat around for most of the day and then went to dinner with my grandma. It was just a relaxing day for me.

Over this weekend, I got to spend time with John (as usual). We went and saw Pirates 3 on Friday. I was a bit disappointed. Like John said in his blog "there were too many subplots that just kept... going... on... forever. So much so that when something finally happened you were too bored with the movie to pay attention". I can only hope that if they make a 4th (which I'm thinking they will) that it'll actually be good because I don't know if I could handle yet another disappointment in this series.

In happier news, John will be moving down the street in a little less than 2 weeks. I'm very excited but at the same time I'm scared. I'm afraid that our relationship will change if we start seeing eachother on a daily basis. I just hope that if it does affect us, it doesn't affect us in a bad way.

That's about it for now but I'll try my hardest to update sooner. My goal for this month is at least 4 posts so we'll see if I suceed.

Updates

I thought I'd take a moment to update you all on my life. John is out of town (acutally on the other side of the U.S. for the night) so I have some time to kill.

First off, Vegas. That was one long weekend. It started off with me getting out of work at 6:00 Thursday night. We drove to Nuevo and had dinner, took showers and went to sleep. Woke up at about 2:30 am to drive down to Valley Center to hop in Krista's U-Haul and drive from there to Vegas. The three of us unloaded it all (well, I slacked off a little) and then went to run a few errands. That night we ordered pizza (the worst I've ever had) and then went to bed. When we awoke the next morning we discovered that there was no water so we couldn't take a shower before heading off to meet his grandmother and aunt for lunch. We walked down the strip and just hung out till it was time for Krista to pick us up and take us to the airport. I finally arrived at my place at 11:00 Saturday night where I showered, slept and then headed off to work. Overall, it was an ok time. I really like Krista and I hope we get to go see her again.

Last weekend was nothing spectacular. We just spent time alone at my place. We watched a few movies, played the Wii a little and just enjoyed spending time together.

Tuesday (June 12th) I became an aunt. My sister had a 7 lb, 12 oz, 19 inch long baby girl named Alise Renee. All I can say is that the baby looks just like her.

This weekend started off with a trip to the vet. Poor Jadin was so traumatized by the end of the visit. She had her temperature taken, q-tips shoved deep into her ear, 2 vaccination shots, 1 vaccine that goes up her nose, ear drops for ear mites and an antibiotic shot for her ear infection. I was also given antibiotics that I have to try and get her to take at home and some more ear drops so she's not very happy with me at the moment either.

After the vet, we went out looking at apartments for John. I'm keeping my fingers crossed because he really liked some apartments that are right down the street from my place and I hope I can have him this close to me.

Saturday I experienced something very new. I sat and watched him and a few friends play D&D (Dungeons & Dragons). It was definitely interesting. It looks kinda fun but I think it's a little too far out of my comfort zone for now. Maybe somewhere down the road, I'll join in but for now I'll stick to just watching.

That's about it for the last few weeks. I shall update again after this next weekend (my birthday).

Finally, a new post!

So I'm sure you all are thinking, "this is one boring girl." I post one blog and then don't post another for almost a month. Sorry for that. I've been so busy experiencing something that I haven't in a long time, being happy. I met this wonderful guy at the beginning of April and it seems every free moment I have is devoted to him whether it be on the phone, through AIM or in person. I have not felt this way in years. He has even started to bring out a side of me that I never knew existed, video game nerd. I actually went out and bought a Nintendo Wii and I have about 10 games for it. I find myself getting anxious about coming home at night to try and beat his high scores on there. Is that bad? Anyways, back to my happiness (try not to get nauseous here). I don't know what it is but even the simple things in life seem better when I'm with him. Making dinner together, eating chinese take-out, waking up at 7am on weekends, our inside jokes, all of those things that don't seem that significant in life bring a smile to my face. I still get butterflies when we kiss too! I wake up each morning thinking that it is a dream and that I'll wake up any second and he'll be gone but I look at my phone and there's my morning text and I see that it is a reality. I look forward to seeing where things go with us!

On a side note, I'm headed out to Vegas this weekend (with him, of course) and I can't wait! I don't expect to do my normal amount of partying while there but I'm still quite excited to be going. Details on that to come.

The Beginning

I used to have an opendiary account that I would write in every once in a while but I have now deleted it. After good conversations with Brian and much soul searching these past 6 months, I am starting over. I now have a wonderful boyfriend and a life that I can finally say I am happy with so what better way to continue on with my new life than with a new blog? I shall warn you now that this will not be a literary masterpiece but just me in my own, sometimes ditzy, words.
