I'm alive- update.

I haven't posted or been on. A lot of #$#@#@$ has gone down. I will not be giong into it. I am being postive, and I will not be bogging down my journals any of them with my woes. Besides they are over or overish. Which is why I am here.

Good news, we had the first garage sale, and I got to say, I cleaned up. I made about 78 dollars. Just from it, not counting the money my neighbor owes me. I sold a lot of bikenstock and their sub brands for 10 dollars a pair. I think maybe I should have sold them for more. When I went to tax free day to get new shoes and told the lady she gave me a look. The woman has to be an older sister or mother. You know the one. That looks that gives you a royal scolding without saying a word? Yeah, that one. But hey, I couldn't wear them. I had lost to much weight in my feet. Yeah for the losing weight, pooh for not being able to wear my shoes.

I want the new mickey mouse ones from birkenstock but they are only availible in Europe. *pouts*

news about mom from sale )

So on tax free day I took my haul and went shopping I now needed new shoes. I went a little crazy. Got a pair of shoes, shorts, two shirts and a purse. Spent all my money and five from my checking account but I still think it was a good haul. I don't normally do that. It was the first pair of shorts i bought all year.

It was my birthday yesterday, on Sunday we went out, for my dinner. I had to pay for it out of savings-an emergency came up. It broke my savings but my parents will pay me back as soon as we get the AAA paycheck. Such is the like of small bussiness owners. Besides, we went ot Outback. I am not a huge fan of the place but they have this awesome ficcoca filet sandwhich which is the sole reason I went, with sweet potato fires. Pure heaven. I tried the Captian's Mia Tia also, I wasn't sure I would like it. I had two, would probably have gone for three but yeah I was stuffed, and my grandparents had the server who turned out to be an old classmate bring out this huge fried icecream oreo sunday! Which I just had to try. I don't normally eat that much anymore but I chowed. It was great. My grand aunt was there and gave me a present which suprised me. I expected a card but nothing from her. It was nice.

My parents, gave me the other part of the moeny I had been saving for my PSP slim 3000. It isn't the purple one. That was my choice. I decided, I wanted the silver one. It came with Ratchet and Clank , which is a game I wanted, National Treasure which is a movie I like, a GB memory card, and was 30 dollars cheaper. I couldn't see paying the extra money for a color, a game I didn't want, and a movie I didn't want. Sure the card was bigger and I wanted the color but they weren't worth it. I like silver and I'll probably buy a skin anyway. They also bought me another game to go with it. That and the ankel braclet mom bought me at the start of spring makes me happy.

They also made me the brown sugar roastbeef nachoes I like lastnight, and bought me an ice cream cake from DQ. Very nice, although I have to be completely honest. The old DQ icecream cakes were better then they are now.

Birthday doldrums.

It's my Birthday today, I am 26! Today is going to be absolutely completely without a doubt lack luster, bordering even on the suck worthy! I am not saying this for pity, although pressies are all welcome but I was hoping my ficlists would perhaps have some requests that I could mayble fulfill, when I get back from my meeting with the University counselors (which is almost GUARENTTED to PISS ME OFF) so I can immerse my energies in that, so any prompts.

No HEREOS please, I know nothing about the fandom, although I am willing to make Heroes graphics If i am provided with the images!

Birthday Blues

Its my 25th birthday and I should be seriously happy, I got nice presents three necklaces, checques and my mom even splurged and bought me a Kathy Van Zeeland purse. I do not go for designer anything but I love her stuff. Instead, for some reason I feel depressed, lethargic and tired. Although my father called, my paternal grandmother has not nor my paternal aunt and uncle. I am feeling a little forgotten, oh yes and now that's its my birthday, my TN liscense has expired and thanks to a new home land security law, I not only have to prove valid citizenship in the state but also in the counryry, all because TN is NOT the state of my birth. Damnit that is not fair,I moved to a new state, not a different county! I couldn't use my passport because it was in a fire we had 4 years ago, and though it survived, the fire stipped the thing of its security features. SO I also have to report the thing as destroyed and apply for a new one instead of a renewal. $99 freaking dollars! When I got the thing it was like 25-50 but no more. College starts again next week, so I had to spend over 60 dollars, to have some agency that works with the gov, pull my records and send me a notarized copy. Oh and on a side note, the kinds of questions they asked me to prove i was who I said I was--scary that they know the correct answers. I am no big brother conspiracy fanatic but this whole process gave me pause.


All in all I should not be feeling blue, ignored and left out on this birthday, but I am. If I wasn't going to take my prescriptions so soon, I'd have a drink. Oh well tomorrow
