So many things, so little time...

I really hate it when the fates screw with me. Those assholes. These past couple of weeks have about driven me up the wall with all the waiting and nail-biting I've been doing, and not just for me....

A family member is looking for a job, and had a very good lead, but heard nothing back, so lately I've been the moral support in job-hunting. And speaking of opportunity, mine may have been put on the back burner for now, although the person I spoke to said they are interested still. I'm just going to enjoy the time I have right now, until something changes. 

This all could possibly tie in to how I pay off a new car note soon. I'm still car-shopping, and getting more depressed by the minute. The car at the top of my list may be just out of my reach, unless I do the aforementioned task. So I'm looking at other options (the Nissans are waaaayyy too expensive, so screw them, I really don't want another Chevy, since the Cobalts are no longer in production, and the Scions? Heh, I can kiss that one goodbye, too.). I came across the Kia Soul earlier this week, base of $15,000. Now that's more like it! I've always been rather fond of them, and the more I researched them, the more likable they became. So I'm down to my top two; Honda Civic coupe, or Kia Soul.....and I'm not-so-patiently awaiting the 2014's to come out. I'm going to have to trade my car in soon..time is ticking. She's got her oil changed, tires are still like-new, and I just had new wipers put on today. She's still in great shape, for being half a decade old. A new car would be an awesome early birthday present....

And speaking of which, I'm still planning everything out for the big day; where I want to go, etc. I'm still planning on taking the weekend off (the day falls on a Saturday), and am going to put that in this weekend. I swear I'm not ending up like the last time.....that was no fun. Now that I'm less than two months out, getting there will be half the journey; after next month's surgery, it will be an awesome reward for making it as far as I have, and I can finally start the process to fix these damn teeth. I'm excited, nervous, anxious, but so ready to get that part over with. Then I can celebrate. After this weekend, I will be on vacation for 11 days, so I've got plenty of time to finally sit down and plan everything out, and finally set the date. This is it, and again, time is ticking down....this has to happen. No more waiting or excuses. 

And speaking of vacation...I'm not sure how this one will top the one I took in July. Going into this weekend, I had a not-so-good outlook, except to take care of personal things (the surgery, birthday plans, some basic running around), and see friends. But I wasn't sure about John. These last few weeks, communication between us has been just one or two lines back and forth, and it's been driving me insane not being able to talk to him. Things didn't appear to be going well on his end. I just found out today that he is planning on taking some time off during the week, and possibly next weekend, and he's coming home. I'm so excited it's all I can do to not take off to LA and drag him back. I just found the drive to make it through the next three days (even if they do stick me up in the air all day again....I still hate heights!). 

Sunday night can't come fast enough.........

Until next time.
