Today I woke up and it has been over cast and drizzly all day. Needless to say I was pretty bummed out. I have also been getting rather nervous about starting work on Friday, so I was trying to find ways to distract myself. So after a stint of Viva Pinata on my Xbox and breakfast, I moped about til about noon. That is when I texted Aunt Lori to see if I could come spend some time with her and I had lunch. Novel idea, I know! So as I was getting ready to leave to go to Aunt Lori's house I got distracted by a phone call from mom... It was a pleasure to here from her.... as always. 8o] They are coming up on the 17th to go to the State Fair. I am really excited. I will have to take off work, but that is ok. I will work it out. I also called Financial Aid, to no avail. My adviser was supposed to call or text or e-mail or smoke signal me a reply to the numerous emails and what not I have left for her, but of course I am on like day 8 with out money... and it is all the school's fault.
So I got to Uncle Bret and Aunt Lori's around 2 or so and we sat around and I showed her how to work her DVR and we talked and chit chatted. I told her the story of how Moa saw a great family resemblance in the two of us. She got a kick out of that. We talked scrapbooking, how crazy the family is, shopping, the local ward (Mustang 1st) and her kids, of course! : P When Uncle Bret got home, he started on dinner... I offered my services, but they weren't needed as burgers were on the menu for dinner. Man they were YUMMY!!!!!! We also had some sausage on a stick thingy's and talked about how EMSA's system works here and about all the food we want to eat at the county fair. Uncle Bret said he was going to have to sit down and write out a list, so nothing got forgotten or left out. XD Uncle Bret also gave me an open invitation to their place. Which I knew was in place, but nice to hear out loud. I am just so grateful to have family so close. Only 10 minutes away!!!!!! It is so nice to know that I have a place where I am always wanted and can go to if I need anything. Tonight was scouts and Young Women's so at about 10 til 7pm, when Aunt Lori and Austin left, I followed suit. Aunt Lori's Miamaids were making earrings. Austin didn't know what he was doing.
So I got back to my apt and Melissa (from Arizona) was packing her lunch and back-pack for work tomorrow. I am not really sure what time her shift is, but since her car is in the shop she is hitching a ride with Levi, who is leaving at 0350. OUCH!!!! Well the backpack she had purchased earlier in the day, she discovered had a tear in it. So we all hop in the car to go back to Target, which I really wasn't planning on going, but Emily looked at me weird when I said have fun and be safe. She gave me that "What?? You aren't going?? Are you crazy?!?!" look. So I went. On the way back to Target, they were all talking in their Russian accents, which I can't do and have been informed sounds awful, so I don't participate... Melissa was riding shot gun and was trying to navigate. She told Em to go one way and it wasn't the right way and Em caught it before being unable to correct the wrong turn. She then turned to Melissa and said 'Don't tempt me whore!!!! You back seat driving bitch!!!!' To which we all started laughing hysterically and Em got way embarrassed. Her GPS took us to the closest Target... but it took the longest to get there!!!! It was in fact the one they had been to earlier that day. Em wasn't exactly pleased. So the bag got exchanged and a movie was purchased for Em for driving all the way back into the city.
On the way back, Melissa got a text from Josh (from Denver). He said he was home. Well, his shift started at 1345 today, which means he shouldn't be home til almost 2:30 in the morning. So he told us he got kicked off the truck for not knowing what Haldol was. Which is an anti-psychotic drug. We didn't learn all the ins and outs of the drug in school though. So we are all like freaking out!!!! and making plans to stay up all night studying drugs. Well we get back to the apt and he comes over and tells us the story of how his schedule was wrong and his preceptor's shift starts at 0700 not almost 2 in the afternoon. So the truck was called back to Post 41 and he hopped on for the last few hours of the shift. Jerk. Our insides wanted to become our outsides and we were preparing for the worst!!!! I had a bowl of Cookies and Cream Bluebell Ice Cream to calm my nerves and my stomach. Worked really quite well. ; )
So Josh leaves and Annamarie (military offspring from all over) went and sat in my Texas chair which is at the built in desk and starts laughing uncontrollably!!! So I go over to see what is so funny and see that when she went to sit her basketball shorts got caught on the arm rest and pulled down her shorts. She is leaning to try to get them free and the chair is just kind of folding up on her. I died!!!!!! So funny!!!!!!!!!! Then I go to talk to Em and Melissa in Mel's room and Em find's one of her bras and decides to put it on and stuff it!!!! It was really funny. Just picture a petite woman with an H cup size.... She was soooo front heavy it wasn't funny. Then Annamarie put the bra on her head. ahhhh, good times. Well that was pretty much all for today. I also got my movies back from Kraig and his wife if you were wondering. The second movie was '50 First Dates'. I am now going to go to bed... Tune in tomorrow evening for another heroic account of the EPIC event's in the daily life of me... 'of the Paramedic Sort'
Sounds like you are having sooooo much fun! makes me miss being single and just laughing at everything!
