I think that I have done an even worse job this month in keeping up on my posts than I did last month. Oh well though it has just been a really busy one.
First thing I have to say is that lately the weather has been AMAZING! I absolutely love that it is so nice outside most of the time that I usually don't feel like I have to wear a sweatshirt and especially not a jacket. Though there was one weird day that we got snow and then the next day it was all basically gone which was nice.
There has been a lot since I last posted a blog nine days or so ago. Last Tuesday I was off work and so right after Brendan and I got out of Art History he got some lunch and we decided to head to Columbia to go to The Devil's Ice Box... of course the actually Devil's Ice Box is closed until April 13, which I forgot to check because of bat hibernation and the fact that they don't want to disturb them. I completely understand that though so it wasn't that big of a deal. I actually really just enjoyed doing something else that wasn't watching a movie or just going out to eat together it was nice. After that we wandered around the mall a little bit just to kill some time, and then we went to The Geisha Sushi bar. Now, I have been here before and I really like it, but Brendan had never been, and he also hadn't ever had sushi before. I ended up with the Tiger Shrimp roll and he got the Dragon roll. They were both really good, and he actually enjoyed it, and said that he would come back again which makes me really really excited! Never before has anyone actually liked sushi really and it makes me really happy that he does because it means that I'll actually get to eat it sometimes even if it isn't all that often.
After Tuesday I was off Wednesday too, but I don't remember at all what I did... That's bad. Oh well.
Then I worked both Thursday and Friday (which even though it is Saturday I am saying it is Friday still because I haven't gone to sleep yet). Currently Brendan is sleeping, I couldn't fall asleep yet because I just wasn't tired so I figured that I should try to do something a little bit productive so I decided to write my blog since he handed me his computer to use.
We are getting up around 7:30 in the morning and he is going to go home with me tomorrow. Now, he has already met my mom, not really talked to her but he has met her. So, now it is time that he gets to meet my step-dad and then Sunday he also gets to meet my dad. I hope that it all works out just fine, I don't forsee them not liking him or anything. I guess that we will have to see though!
Anyway, I think that I will try to get to sleep again now, because I am the one who has to drive in the morning. Goodnight!

I haven't really done a whole lot over this break so that is why I haven't posted anything for the last few days. I didn't feel like I should post that I went to work and only went to work multiple days in a row because if anyone really does read this they wouldn't be that enthused by posts like that and me looking back at them wouldn't be that fun either.
So, those days up until Tuesday consisted of me talking to Brendan and me working so that's what I have to tell you. Then Tuesday I worked until I got off work at seven and then I got to go home for the first time in a little less than two months. I didn't really do all that much at home, I skyped Brendan to show him what my cats look like.
It was great to sleep in my own bed. I missed it, and I don't look forward to sleeping on Sara's couch again. Wednesday I spent time with my mom and did some things with each other including filling out my FAFSA, going to the grocery store, and making food. That is about all that we really did. I got to see my nephews since they now live right next door!
Then this morning I woke up at like ten and then ate some leftovers, mom came home at lunch and helped me pack up my car and then I headed on back to Fayette. I spent most of the time today on the phone with Brendan and while he was getting his hair cut I went on a walk around town because it was beautiful outside. I am really loving this beautiful weather!
Anyway, then I had to work from six until like seven-thirty and then Sara and I went to Wal-Mart and got some stuff only to come back and watch Bridezillas and look at engagement rings just because we could. She went to bed about an hour ago, and I'm on Skype with Brendan now.
So, yeah I wasn't that exciting for the last few days either but it happens.

So, the rest of yesterday after my blog post consisted of me and Brendan talking on Skype with each other. We watch an episode of Dexter with each other after some technical difficulties. My computer really doesn't like me all that much and it kind of made things really difficult. Finally we figured out how to get it where he was watching it on my Netflix and I was watching it on Sara's TV.
We were on Skype with each other for about a total of like five hours and we had talked on the phone for like an hour before that like I said yesterday. Then right before I was going to bed Skype cut out before we could say goodnight so I called him to tell him and we ended up talking on the phone again. Ended up both falling asleep on the phone. I woke up like four hours and and forty-eight minutes later because I heard some loud noise which I am assuming was Brendan's phone falling on the floor, since my phone was on speaker though it was really loud and woke me up, so I finally decided to hang up the phone.
So, that's a first for us. First ever for me, never have I fallen asleep on the phone with someone and also I think it was the longest Skype call that I have ever had.
Anyway, today I got up at ten and then had breakfast before I went to work. I worked from eleven to six which wasn't really that bad because since all of the college kids aren't around so it makes it a lot less busy.
After I got off of work I showered, then did the dishes while I was on the phone with Brendan. Then I decided that I was going to wait to eat anything because I wasn't really hungry because I ate around three at work. I got on Skype after doing dishes and am still on here right now with Brendan. Nothing really that exciting about today just work and talking to the boyfriend which is fine by me, I don't need to do anything major.

Yesterday Brendan and I went out to eat for dinner since spring break started today. We went to Cheddar's because he had never been there. He said that is was okay but it wasn't his favorite place to eat. Oh well, I enjoyed it.
Today is my third and last day off until next Wednesday which actually happens to be my only day that I have off over spring break. So today was the last day of classes before break started. I had two exams in the three classes that I had. One was in Statistics which I am not sure how that even went and the other was in Experimental Psychology which was SO easy! Then Mom came up and helped me get everything packed up so that I could get my things and go to Sara's which is where I am staying over break. That meant that she got to meet Brendan even it if was only for a short amount of time before we left and then also before he headed back home for break. Brendan and I talked most of the time that he was driving home.
It is going to be a little bit strange not seeing him for like nine days, but it will be okay. It will be a little bit of time with my best friend (when she is home). Currently she is back home for the weekend so I am sitting all alone in her house. I would say that it isn't that fun, but it really isn't all that bad because I am actually Skyping with Brendan right now for the second time already today. We are going to watch Dexter after I finish this blog post while he is reading his Rams articles which he reads every single day.
I really don't have anything else that is really all that important for me to say today.

Brendan had his first class this morning cancelled so we didn't have to get out of bed until almost nine this morning rather than an hour earlier than that like normal on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings. Then he headed to class and I went back to my room and I turned into my paper for introduction to literature. After that I went to class.
I had class from 10-12 and then I ate lunch, which actually wasn't all that bad for once. Before I went to Experimental Psychology I went down to go and check my mail. I had a feeling that my Sevenly shirt would have come by today and I was right! I am so excited to have it, I think it is probably one of my favorites that I own so far if not my absolutely favorite.
After that I went to class and Mindy texted me and said that Audrey wanted to cover the short little shift that I had today so I learned that I didn't have to go to work today which is exciting because it means that I get to spend time with my best friend. I spent a little bit of time with Brendan but at four, Sara came to get me.
We ran to C&R to get brownie mix and now we are watching Harry Potter movies, which I actually haven't watched all of them. She is starting making tacos and so we are going to have tacos and peanut butter brownies for dinner tonight. By the end of this week I am going to be staying here because spring break is next week. It's exciting, I am ready to spend some time with my best friend again because I feel like I haven't spent much time with her lately with school and spending time with Brendan and work.
I don't really have anything else that I have to say today, I don' think that there is much of anything else that is going to happen today. I was going to do math homework, but I realized that I forgot my calculator and notebook before I came over here so I probably won't be able to do anything else.

Yesterday consisted of me waking up at 10:20 to my alarm and then hitting snooze every ten minutes until 11, which then I stayed awake and laid in bed until 11:25 when I had to get up finally so that I could get ready for work. I had to be at work by noon which really isn't too bad, Corey had basically everything done when I got there so that wasn't that big of a deal.
Then came around 12:30 and I realized stupid me forgot to clock in. That meant that I had to stick around until six rather than 5:30 so I could clock out with the proper amount of time. That wasn't really that big of a deal, I just got to stay and talk to Audrey a little bit. Then I went back to the dorms and I showered and changed before heading over to HP to spend time with Brendan. I think that I have been over here more than I have been in my own dorm this last week, though I am not going to stay that it is a problem.
First I called my mom to tell her happy birthday (Brendan told her too), then I called my dad just because I could. Then we did some homework and watched the end of an episode of Dexter which I had fallen asleep during two nights before because I was exhausted, then we just laid and talked with each other. I like talking to him, makes me happy. (:
With that talking I ended up with only four and a half hours of sleep though because since we got ice and then snow I was the one who got to open at Subway this morning. It was rather slow for the whole day nothing too exciting happened other than once Sean got there it started to snow really hard, and it still continues to do so. I swear I just want spring to come back I am so sick of this weather it just makes me tired and annoyed.
I am going to the CMU concert tonight because I haven't been to one all year. Sara is going to go to and I am dragging Brendan along with me. I have this feeling that he isn't going to appreciate it as much as Sara and I will, but that's okay he needs to put up with it at least once. Also, it's something that I do still really love to be around, so I am going to continue to go to the concerts happily over time.
Tonight we have to do all of the rest of our homework. I know for a fact my photos are not getting uploaded which is really upsetting, but I just didn't have the motivation. This blog post is a last minute thing and homework comes before anything else because getting my education means more to me than letting people see all my photos even though that is something that really does make me happy as well.

Oh, and one more thing! Happy birthday to my kitty Kissie! She is eighteen years old today, I love her to death.

I have to get one more post in before this month is over. I really have been a mess to keep track of this last month. I am still way behind on my 365 uploading photos. I have been doing so many things that I just cant seem to keep up and I don't seem to have time to get things like that done. I am off work this Sunday and I get off of work tomorrow at six so I am planning on getting all of my homework done, getting all those photos uploaded... or at least only leaving like six... then also try to post at least one day on this blog.
Well, since my last post I got my car fixed. It turned out to be my coil spring on my car rather than the strut that was broken. Though not only was it broke on the passenger side... the dang car had to have broken both of them. Like everyone including myself was like how does this even happen? Whatever it was with the towing of the car that shot the $290 out of my pocket, gotta love it. Like I said guess there will be no conference for Shelby this summer.
Another thing that has happened since I posted last, is I turned in my petition to live off campus next year. I do not fit criteria for them, but I am hoping for an exception. I really can't afford to live on campus anymore and it makes it hard for me to stay for work over breaks. I pay more money basically per meal on campus because of how often I actually get to eat here than I would if I was to go out to eat a decent sit down restaurant. It's ridiculous!
On the 24th Brendan and I decided that we were going to make a 10 o'clock date to IHOP! It was lovely. I got to have peach crepes and I have to say that they were absolutely delicious. Second date for us. We also specifically declared which day we actually started dating because I don't think we really had an idea just kinda happened. So it's been almost a month, not that I'm all over the celebrating every single month thing, but I am just mentioning it.
Anyway, I need to really do some homework now. I haven't really been in my own dorm room for the last like seventy-two hours! I kind of make myself scarce and am elsewhere most of the time. The only time I have really been in here before now was when I was getting ready to go to work, after work and showering, or just getting stuff before class. Today I had class from 10-12, then I went to a thing about modern day slavery which is an insane thing that I didn't know was such a prevalent problem in the world. There are about 27 million people in slavery currently! That is a insane statistic that sickens me, it's awful. Then I had another class from 1-2, and then spent a little time with Brendan from 3-4:45 when I had to go to work.
I worked from 5-10:30, I was so ready to get off work when time came though, I am so tired right now, but I need to do more homework before I actually go to sleep. I have to be back at work in twelve hours and ten minutes! I better get to work!
