Yeah, it's a dramatically ridiculous day for us single folk. You know, I'm glad for all my fb friends that had such a glorious day, because they deserve it. I mean, putting up with somebody day in and day out deserves a random day of presents...but SHUT UP!!! Us single losers get so sick of hearing about how perfect your day was, how delicious your dinner was and how awesome your flowers smell. It's a little overwhelming, as you can see...

Breathe.....1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1....

Ok, now that I got that out....I would like to say I haven't been up in this bizzy because I've been busy, but that's not absolutely true. We have a couple things going on though...Mr. Nick is in Tae Kwon Do, and that takes up an hour of 2 of our weeknights...then I have Sons of Anarchy night with Julie on Thursdays....ok, well, that's about it....oh...I suck....pft.

 Well, we've been doing a LOT of reading around here. Nick has drastically improved in his reading abilities in the last month, and I couldn't be more excited. I'm not gonna lie though, I'm pretty sure that he's going to get better....we got karaoke CDs. He is learning to read a little bit faster doing that. He might have a little obsession...Whatever it takes to take him to the top....right?  haha. It is really awesome to listen to/watch though...

I just asked Nick what he wants to be when he grow up, and his answer was "Maybe a teacher"..."so I can tell the kids what to do"....I have a damn genius on my hands...a bossy one. I really wish I had a voice recorder with me to catch all the conversations we have. 

Ok, and there is just ONE more thing I wanted to touch on real quick. The drivers today...ABSOLUTELY STUPID!!! There is a difference between space to get over and following distance. You don't need to try and squeeze your stupid ass in my following distance because usually that means you will instantaneously slam on your breaks (always, for some reason) and then that makes me want to slam my car into the back of your head...i mean, car. wtf is wrong with people...really?

CHOP

Wow, it's been a while. I haven't felt there was much to post about. I suppose there hasn't been much change, but I feel like I should make an attempt.......Let's get this show on the road and let's talk about today.....

Today, my alarm went off at 5:25am, and my poor son got up out of bed (it's a big deal to sleep in mom's "new" bed) and turned off his alarm. It's only a little funny. Poor feller. I told him to lay back down and go back to sleep and it was my alarm and that I'd turn his back on before I went to work. You'll never guess, but I forgot. So, I ruined his morning.....twice! He will wake up to his alarm like a champ, but he fights it when a real person tries to wake him up.
Besides me hating and ruining mornings, today was pretty eventful...I had a job interview, which may "make or break" this funk I've been in. Just not feeling myself lately. I was so damn nervous. I don't even know why, really. I mean, the job interview is a main decider in whether I get the job or not, but the interview-ers were all very welcoming...it wasn't them, but I WAS ON FIRE!!! Not like, badass, but I literally felt like my BODY WAS ON FIRE. It obviously wasn't, otherwise I'd be in a burn unit or something. But oh em gee. Well, we'll see. They said it could take 2-3 years to get an answer...just a little exaggeration there...


The second big thing was...Nick's first day of Tae Kwon Do. It was a little frustrating to watch because, well, he wasn't paying attention half the time. But the other half, he was having fun. Unfortunately, his...uniform, Gi, Dobok....cute little white suit (hahaha, sorry) hadn't made it in time for his first day, so he stuck out like a sore thumb. Should be in by Friday though.

Since then, Nick managed to get himself in trouble and went to bed sobbing. Poor little feller, life is ROUGH...I need to get this done because I have some reading to do (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo)...so...off I go...
