I fell down.

I told Jess my falling down story, she asked if I blogged about it. Yes, I did, but on MySpace, so because she doesn't read my much happier blogs over there (I save the sad stuff just for ya'll!), she said I must post it here.

I picked Gabby up from her dad's, and on the way out the car, I stepped on a crack wrong...twisted my ankle and went flying through the air. Almost literally. Well, that makes it sound graceful...maybe just tumbling and rollilng describes it better. All the while thinking in slow motion, "You're falling. You're really going to fall, dumbass! How did this happen? No, really, you're actually tripping and falling!"

I twisted my ankle bad, but I've iced it...as well as my wrist, and the pain as subsided a bit. On top of that I have a scab on my knee...I scraped the skin off a couple of toes, and the nail polish off my big toe. I think there might be a scrape on my elbow as well. How does this happen!!!??? It was quite embarrassing, especially when all of Gabby's aunts and cousins came running out...oh, yea, and when the guy across the street got in his car and drove by, then leaned out the window to ask if we needed help...that was humiliating as well.

So, that happened after I had a pretty good day. Saw 27 Dresses...and had a White Cherry Icee!

Going to bed. It's late...and I just think about stuff too much on the weekends. I need my weekly structure...BADLY! I can't wait to go to work tomorrow!

Ouch!!!! Birthday WOMAN just doesn't have the same feel to it! Birthday Schwenk---love it! I survived another year--praise be to God!
I was all sorts of confused!!! Now that I know that's your birthday, I WON'T forget! Jess' husbands b-day is the 10th, and I knew I had forgotten it!

I can't believe that you forgot! Zook's is tomorrow and we ALWAYS celebrated our birthday's in the office. We LOVED it--so much fun. Like my 30th when they completely covered my car with black crepe paper and put signs all through the halls--and hung the buzzard over my desk. Classic.

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...
WTF? God, I feel great. I am a typical cancer (please refer back to this ). "At times you will seem to have the greatest love for life, yet at others you can be nothing but a self-pitying mess. You can be pleasant and cheerful, or you can be egotistical and vain." Yep, that's me! So, now comes the part where I have a great love of life. And isn't it sad that it stems from feeling secure that someone likes me? One final down...3 more to go! I can't wait for this semester to be over. It has been really hard. Really it was last Spring semester that was really hard, and almost killed me...and that semester seems to have put me in burnout mode for this past semester. But, next semester is new, and will probably kill me with how busy I'll be since I go back to work full-time in the Spring...but as much as I complain...I like being busy, busy, busy! Off to see Aaron the Beast in a couple of hours. Didn't have time to shave my legs this morning. ...

What is up?

Whew! I made it to my parent's house for once. My computer is still down, but it is my fault for not bringing it over to my dad's to get it fixed. It's kind of nice though to not always be so worried about checking my email or what not. I've been pretty busy. I was working my usually seasonal job for the last three weeks. Halloween happened, of course (pictures coming), and I've been interviewing like crazy. I'm going to be looking into temp jobs this week. I got a call from one, and she was going to put me into this once company that I've put in like 12 applications for. So, it might be easier for me to just find a temp-to-hire job. At least then I'll be relatively done with this whole interview crap. I don't even get nervous anymore...I just hate it. I'd rather sit in a bath tub full of frogs. Ok, maybe not that, but something else just as painful... I seriously had a blog written up in my head every single day for the last few wee...
