So I am sitting in bed today...dreading having to buy textbooks...when I suddenly remember I can use my Financial Aid to buy books at the bookstore.
Weight lifted...especially since one of the books is only available at the school bookstore (funny how that works).
So that will be my Wednesday trip.
Tomorrow I am getting my tires mounted and hopefully my brakes done. My aunt...

First half an hour of my shift on Sundays:
Cleaning up the mistakes that the guy who "does my job" on the weekends doesn't know how to fix.
So the guy who is supposed to do my job on weekends can't do my job. My manager can't do my job. The big boss/owner can't do my job.
And I can't get a raise because?
Sigh......

Your boss knows there are thousands of people with expired unemployment who would love to have your job.
I accidentally killed a baby garter snake with the weed whacker today and I feel like crap about it.
After missing 4 (on purpose) with the lawn mower, and even getting off the mower to move one...I kill one with the damn weed whacker. Grrrr....
Usually they slither away when they hear you coming, but apparently this one didn't and I didn't see him in...

So I am waiting on my new thermostat and a set of clips and insulators for the second piece of heat tape and the incubator should be good. I got a light and fan installed.
Oh, and I need to make some more shelves out of plexiglass or something.
It's gonna be sweet.
The thermostat is the Herpstat. Heard good things about it.

I called my mom and apologized for snapping on the phone at her. She knows I don't like being woken up. Hell...I'm her kid...she's known that my whole life.
Got my fridge! It is NICE! Going to make a nice incubator when I am done. I will post pics of the work as I go...though I already gutted it...so I forgot to take pics of...

I snap at mine all the time for stupid phone calls.

yay for your #1!!!
I love my mom...but sometimes she pisses me the hell off.
She called me today and woke me up...to ask me how much rooms are at the hotel I work at.
CALL THE FUCKING HOTEL!
Waking me up to ask my shit about my job that I hate...pisses me off...especially when it's something you can CALL THEM and ask.
Christ...

Gotta love Craigslist sometimes.
I found 4x tires that are the size I need with only 583 miles on them. The dude bought them to drive to CT from Maine and then sold em. $100.
I'm picking them up tomorrow and then hopefully Friday my cousin is going to change my brakes and tires. Something I NEED.

Now Christine is worried I'm going to dump her and is all clingy and insecure, and I can't say anything because it will exacerbate the issue. Every time I tell her to relax, it was just an argument, she gets even fucking sadder.
2+ years and this is our first actual argument...and the insecurities come out in droves!
All because my friend Tim and I...

You should tell her you and tim have been in a torrid love affair for months

You are so gay for Tim.
On a different note that isn't depressing or infuriating...I have two bumper stickers on my car that are gun related. One says "Another American for gold, guns and the constitution" and one is the 2nd amendment.
I am removing them.
Why?
Because I never realized they make my car a target for morons looking to steal guns.
So in their place will be a sticker...

gotcha
tiger_fodder:
Good move. Did someone try to break in? On he other blogs, I hope you and the girl can get this ironed out. You have been much happier with her than before her. At least it seems that way to me.
Well...I guess we're good for now, but I have to "try harder in the relationship."
We'll see what happens in another month I guess.
I didn't even notice I had "stopped trying"...but apparently I have.
Sometimes I honestly wonder if I was better off single.

I just read your last blog ... tell the bitch to get out! 99% of the time when they pull stunts like that ... there already is somebody else. She is going to yank your chains and abuse your emotions untill she makes her move and moves in with him. Trust me on this one, for you to get a letter like that ... she has been in a relationship with somebody else for more that a little bit.
sorry ..................................

Hopefully...you can work it out.
Looks like the shit has hit the fan. I got a 6 page letter from Christine about all the stuff I do that makes her feel like crap...
there was even a "I will always love you, but I may not always be in love with you" in there.
Didn't even realize I did things to make her feel like crap...but apparently I do.

You never know, she may have just needed to vent.
I do think around the 2 year mark it is when you finally feel comfortable about talking about stuff like that.
Don't worry too much!

Ouch, sorry to hear that man. Life has a funny way of kicking us all around as I am sure you know. Generally speaking in my past if I received a letter like that, I just checked out. I didn't ever want to be "that guy" that sticks around while she may or may not be totally into me....or in complete love with me. In fact if she couldn't make up her mind then that says what it needs to say to me. I am not the best person for relationship advice though. I guess that's why I am still single. I am just not going to be fucked around like that. Either you want to be all in with me...or your out. Good luck, sorry to hear you are having any trouble at all.
