So I've had mixed feeling about a lot of things lately.

It seems that death has become quite a close friend of mine, and I hope it decides not to get too close.

I've had to cut work because of school, but I'm getting tired of it as it is. I just wish I could start a career and not have to worry about scraping by on minimum wage.

We got rid of the Condo, and since James's car has been worked on he and David have been living with me. It's like having an older and younger brother in the house, complete with them hogging the bathroom.

Cliff is out again, and I know he's under a lot of stress, and the distance puts stress on me too. I'm trying to help, but I feel so useless when he's so far away.Of course, seeing couples make out around me also doesn't help. I want to punch random people in the face more than normal... normally it doesn't bother me, but when mine is halfway around the world my patience runs short.

I went to the LA BBA Meet with , , and some BBA people, and we had a lot of fun. Erin's alarm didn't go off like it was supposed to, but I think it worked out okay. We got to the zoo at about 11, and I really enjoyed it. Fun antics, interesting jokes and wacky animals. It really is a shame not very many showed up, but I think it was a good turnout for a rather short notice visit. I know that I'm totally up for another Meet, perhaps during the holidays. We ate at a chinese restaurant and the food was delicious, and I think I got the funniest fortune of them all. "Go ask Mom" WTFLOL?! And the socks store! I never considered socks to be so entertaining. Not only that, but Fuego is simply adorable!

Started school, and so far my semester looks like it'll be interesting. I have 3 art classes, but only 1 looks like it'll be work. My history teacher seems to be insane, and I'm not so sure about him yet. My math class is odd, I'm not taught by a teacher, I'm taught by an AI Program named ALEKS. I haven't gotten started on it yet, but it should be interesting... I think.

I'm getting more and more annoyed with work. Not only have I had to cut hours because of school, and I still feel overworked. One of my shift leaders just got fired, so this means that I'm going to have to get used to ANOTHER boss. Just what I need. I'm really close to just giving up and not giving a damn anymore. I work hard and I never get anything out of it.

Out for the summer, but I've already picked out my classes for the fall!

Work goes up and down, depending on the day. Working with the public is always a strain, and my naturally sarcastic personality seems to be a double-edged sword. For the most part people enjoy it, but every once in a while I get those kind that naturally have a stick up their ass. Ah well.

I have a new herb garden that and I worked on together last week. It's in the flower bed on the patio of the condo. I had to sweep the patio out of all the leaves from the trees (a task in itself) when out of nowhere this skink lizard dashes from my broom and scares me half to death! Well, I caught the little bugger and put it in the old fish tank until the boys got home. (James has pet Tarantulas, why wouldn't they want a lizard?) After the patio was cleared I started pulling all the weeds and digging all the roots up. I had only gotten about a foot cleared when Cliff came home, and he worked with me on it. We found that we had wild strawberries in the bed, (a nice surprise) and also figured out one of the previous tenants had buried several broken flowerpots. (It was like an archeology dig! lol) It took us a couple hours to get the old topsoil out and replace it with the garden soil we picked up, but after that I planted the herbs and we were done in a snap! It was a lot of work, and ended with a nice sore blister on my left thumb and a cricked wrist, but I now have fresh Lavender, Rosemary, Lemon Balm, Thyme, Aloe, Chives, Catmint, Cilantro and Mint plants.

Cliff has once again left for the boat, and as usual I'm going out of my mind. The first few days are always tough, but the last few days are the worst. Jake is out on the boat with Cliff, which leaves James at the condo, but we now have Luke, another of the boys' co-workers, staying there, in Cliff's room. It's odd having to knock on the door I'm so used to just walking through. Luke is nice though, so it's possible that he'll stay once James leaves next month. I'll be sad to see him go, it's really terrible what has happened to him as far as the Navy goes. I'm just worried that they'll try and pull something on Cliff too. As it stands he should be home by the 5th, but there is a possibility they could take him straight into cruise. I REEEEAAAAALLLLLYYYY hope they don't do that. It's bad enough when I'm prepared for him to go out for a long while, it's worse when it's unexpected.

Finals are coming up in the next week, so this past week has been crunch time. I worked really hard on my anthro project, and it was all coming together when my blade decided it was through slicing paper and wanted to try my finger instead. I immediately caught my finger in my mouth to keep it from bleeding, but I cut a little deeper than I thought I had, and I had to get up and go wrap my finger before I bled all over my project. But my teacher said she liked it at first glance, so high hopes there.

So work has been going well, as soon as school gets out I should be getting more hours, which will give me a chance to save more money. I'm starting to get into a good routine with my coworkers, and I find that this job, while physically tiring, does not exhaust me they way Target did. I don't mind going to work. (although I would have rather gone back to bed today, considering)
