wow, where do i begin?

Well, things have been way crazy in my life this week. i spent about 7 hours in a car on monday for work driving between plano and fort worth and arlington in traffic. it was not fun, to say the least. so, i called in sick on tuesday morning since i would have had to drive to fort worth again and i just couldnt do it. :) so, as of today, i have decided to quit my current job and not work till next semester. I have some savings to live on and i think my sanity is more important than living a luxurious life. :) well, i just told my supervisor that i am quitting, i gave my two weeks today. she was sad, but also very understanding. Anyway, i am actually looking forward to not working for a few months. I dont think i have not worked since i was 16 years old. This is going to be great. I can focus on school and my internship for the next 6 weeks, then head off to lebanon and then when i get back, i can look for another parttime job to finish off my degree with. it all seems like a good plan to me. :)

on a really great note, i talked to my parents yesterday about this whole job thing and suprisingly, they were totally supportive. It actually really helped to talk it all out with them and know that they have my back if i ever need any help. they said things like "you have made good decsions in the past and we trust you to make more good decisions" and "you deserve some down time, you have been working so hard for the past few years" and all kinds of supportive shit that parents are supposed to say to their kids. It was so wonderful, it almost made me cry. :) i guess it seems that people really can change.

anyway, i am off to a halloween party at work and then off to grand prairie to pick up my favorite two kids. Nick's halloween party is tonight and deb's is tomorrow. saturday will include much researching for papers for school and then sunday will be another blissful day with michael. :) have a great halloween everyone.
