There are a few people that might not agree with that, but it is only because I'm passionate about many things in life and I don't want to see things messed up if they don't have to be and perhaps that is the reason why I get a little testy with work and the rest of my life. Work is the main issue right now for me still however it is getting better by the day; however, me being the impulsive and demanding person I am -- that is not nearly fast enough. Geez...how do my friends and family put up with me???? No wonder Josh still lives 2 hours away from me.
Anyway, there was problem after problem at work this week, but I got most of it cleared up or at least fixed to the point to where I can deal with it this upcoming week should there not be any other fires to put out. My boss will be gone the next three days so I'm sure there will be a few things that come up and I will have to deal with. This past Friday night I stayed late to close the April books. It is very hard for me to believe that the first day of May is tomorrow. Where has almost half of 2006 gone? It's been 10 months since I walked into our office for the first time and was a nervous wreck in front of my current coworkers...almost been a year since I walked across that stage at McKendree for the commencement ceremony...and, it's been nearly 5 years since I graduated from high school. My how time flies!
As for this weekend, it has been pretty good. Friday night was an absolute blast! I stayed late at work to get the month-end stuff done and then M called me on my way home and told me that since I could finally drink again, she picked up some Smirnoff Ice's and Bud Select and the party was at her house. Really it wasn't a party, we had just decided that since next Friday is Cinco de Mayo and we were planning on going out that night that we would just take it easy this week and behave and have just a girls night in. So I went over to M's house and we had a few drinks and talked about all the stuff going on and danced our hearts out. M's husband thought we were nuts when he got home from work because it was just the two of us in the living room blasting the CD that M's son downloaded for her and singing and dancing around. I haven't had that much fun in a long time! I ended up leaving M's house at like 3 in the morning and I was completely worn out.
Yesterday morning my alarm went off waaaayyyy too early and I was out of it but I had to get up and drive out to my Grandma's to visit my dad and her out in S. Illinois. It was nice to get to see them especially since I haven't gotten out there in quite a few months because of my hectic schedule. I missed seeing my bro while I was out there but I was finally able to bring out his birthday card -- it's only a month and a half late!
Today I spent most of my day getting caught up with household things that I have put off the last few weeks and going grocery shopping, etc. Nothing too exciting but I have to get things like that done at some point and I knew it wouldn't happen next weekend with Cinco de Mayo on Friday and a wedding on Saturday. I'm sure I will just need Sunday to recover next weekend! But, I'll get an update in there somewhere!

I friggin' love my job.
Ok...I friggin' love my job too.
I hear you're working a ton of hours and working all over the store. You must be awesome!
Hey, Journey & Def Leopard are coming to town in July and Lynyrd Skynyrd will be here in June. You should plan on going.
It's spelled Def Leppard, Lindsay ;) I don't know why they spell it that way. They just do (lol)
Thank you Tom for catching my spelling mistake before my bro did...of course either way I'm never going to be able to live it down. The whole reason I'm going is to see Journey and then hear "Pour Some Sugar On Me" because that is the only Def Leppard song I really know.

Everyone in the store loves me, and Jean (the night manager) is not happy at all that the deli is trying to take me back for the summer. She has basically already declared that if she has her way, I'll be the next night manager.
Also, Jean and I have pizza parties. And Denise and I had barbecued porksteaks last weekend. And everyone there is just freakin' cool.
Also..you should buy me a ticket to the concert.
Which concert do you want to go to? I'll buy you a ticket, but then you'll have to go with me and my work friends.
Skynyrd is Tuesday, June 27th and Journey is Friday, July 21st. Let me know if you really want to go.
Hey...we have Skynyrd, Leppard and Journey all coming up here, too. But if you want more cutting-edge bands, we also have Blue Oyster Cult, Styx and Roger Waters, too. And rumor has it that Kenny Rogers is gonna make his return after several years to the Puyallup Fair in September! Man...we've hit the jackpot (hahaha)
