[Link] | I have a degree :)!!!
Its shiny, it has my name on it!
Its a little depressing though, you spend all this time, effort, and money in college, and all you get is a stupid piece of paper...
A really nice stupid piece of paper :)!
YAY!!!
I'm moving Thursday.... Its weird, I've lived with Justin/Nigel for so long, its going to be weird not living with them anymore.
Getting married in a month and some days.

Just... Wow
Man, so I'm taking one of those breaks from things and I think it would be nice to write some crap down.
So, for starters, there's 2 weeks left of school. On one hand, thats awesome! Because of course, then I'm done. But, on the other hand, that only gives me 2 weeks to do a whole lot of stuff. Looking at my to do list makes me want to cry, its pretty bad. Here's what I have to do:
Network Security Programming Project 3 - 4/15
Data and Application Security Homework 4 - 4/16
Network Security Term Project Presentation (Read: Needs to be done by) 4/17 or 4/22
Computer Graphics Assignment 5 - 4/20
Network Security Final Exam - 4/24
Computer Graphics Final Exam - 4/24
Chemistry Exam 4 - 4/25 (Which I need to do really well on)
Network Security Term project due (I think it includes some kind of report) 4/25
Data and Application Security Final Project - 4/28 (but she said she wants it really on 4/23 if possible)
Data and Applicatoin Security Final Exam - 4/28
Chemistry Final Exam - 5/5
Graduation - 5/10
Ya. Its a beast... I've been working on the damn Network security project for like, 2 hours now and I'm tired. It takes a lot of reading before I can even start. This is just annoying. In all fairness, both network security ones are group projects, so what will likely happen is he'll do the term project and I'll do this project. At least thats how I envision it. I'm hoping this will be easier than I'm imagining and I can knock it out soon. Keep in mind, all of this is wound up in a ball with finding a place to live in July, and figuring out when I'm moving, and what to do with 2 cats if we're going to be in the house until mid-July (as the landlady can show up anytime she feels like to show it once a 60 day notice is signed) Meagan will keep then until the end of June, but those weeks in July could be interesting.... So complicated...
I've also gotten a job offer with Beck that I plan on taking, which I'm excited about... I'm just really stressed about everything else. Thats the only certain thing, and its kinda nice. I know pretty much everything about the job, and what I'll be doing since I've been an intern for like the last 4 years. All I have to do is graduate.
And really, the only real threat to my graduation is Chemistry. I don't know what qualifies here (if its a C or a D), and lets face it, I've slacked off majorly in that class.. I think I can pull a C, but I'm going to have to actually pay attention in class and maybe study... great, I'll just toss that in there... I totally have time to do chemistry homework....
Then, I'm taking a god damn vacation. Period. May 6 - 18, I'm doing nothing. Maybe I'll go somewhere with Meagan. I don't know. I'm just soooo tired, I need a break, and I think I should get one every few years. Its only fair.
Its also kind of sad, I realized our happy little band will be breaking up and running off in our own directions. Its weird to think I've lived with the same guys for 3 years now, and now we're all about to be going off and doing our own thing. With Justin going to Austin, and me running off to be married, it'll just be a little weird. But still exciting.
I think that qualifies as my break for the evening. I'm going to work some more, and then maybe pass out if I'm lucky before some ungodly hour.

[Link] | So I haven't sat down to write in this in such a long time. Its been a combination of extremely busy, and lazy, and not really wanting to write anything here. So much has happened in the almost year its been since I last updated.
In mid-may Meagan and I got a cat, then a few months later she got one. Miley lives with me here, and Izzy lives with Meagan in Lubbock. I have some pictures on my Facebook, so you can see them there.
I've been busy with school and work. I have gotten an offer out of college, which is cool. I'm graduating this may, which is also cool. Me and Meagan are engaged, which is really beyond cool and we're getting married in August.
Outside of all that, nothing else much has been going on. Just been keeping busy with school, work, work, school work, and umm... ya thats about it.

End of semester
Man, I have been so freakin busy the last few weeks. Finals week hit me hard, I 1 final every day the entire week (monday - friday), plus that week I had 3 projects due, and like, 6 homeworks. I can't believe I actually survived that. I don't think I'm going to do 18 hours ever again.
And with that, I am now officially a senior. I have 27 hours left I think before I graduate. Its a little crazy, I knocked off a whole year in AP and CCCC credits.
Anyway, semester grades:
CS -4384-001 AUTOMATA THEORY -- A+
CS -4347-002 DATABASE SYSTEMS -- A
ISSS-3360-001 POLITICS & VALUES-BUSINSS & TECHNOLOGY -- A-
CS -4340-501 COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE -- A
CS -3354-501 SOFTWARE ENGINEERING -- A
CS -4349-001 ADVANCED DATA STRUCTURE AND ALGORITHMS ANALYSIS -- A+
Semester GPA: 3.945 (Damn Dr.Bearry and his multiple choice tests from hell!!)
Overall GPA: 3.920
I'm a little bummed because this was the semester I was most likely to pull a 4.0, but I couldn't quite do it.... the one class I figured would be a blowoff turned out to be my lowest grade, and the class I had to study for the most. It was depressing.
So far for next semester I have this going:
CS 4348 - Operating System concepts (T/R 4:00 - 5:15)
CS 4337 - Organization of Programming Languages (T/R 1:00 - 2:15)
CS 4390 - Computer Networks (T/R 2:30 - 3:45)
MATH 2451 - Multi variable Calculus (T/R 7:00 - 8:15)
MATH 2051 - Multi variable calculus problem section (T 8:30 - 10:20)
All my classes are on T/R, which is kinda nice, I'm going to try to get an internship and work MWF, and you know, it should be nice. Since I only have like, 2 semesters left I think I can get away with only taking 13 hours, it would put me on scholarship probation, but if I decide to do graduate work, I just have to take 15 the next semester then I'll be off probation.
Lets see, Meagan has been around a lot the last few weeks, which has been cool. We took some bluebonnet pictures with my cousin, they're on facebook if you really wanna see them. Me, Justin, Nigel and Jerry (the guys I lived with last year) just moved into a house off campus. We've spent like, the last week moving and we're almost done! yay!
The other day we drove in a torrential downpour, hit a deep puddle, messed my car up, kept driving it, drove through some more overly deep water (I know, we're brilliant), then the car died and we had to push it a quarter of a mile home. It was a blast, let me tell you. But everything seems to be working ok now.
I really don't have much else to say, life is kinda dull, I'm sure I've done a lot since I last wrote here, and maybe I'll get a little better over the summer, but I doubt it. All in all though, life is going well. yay!

Its been a while
So its been a very long time since I wrote anything of real interest or importance in here. I'd like to blame the lack of updates on my extremely busy school schedule, but thats a load of crap. I'm really just freaking lazy. So I'm going to try and sum up whats been going on in my life for the last couple of months.
Let's see, most of my background stuff is done for my internship this summer, so as long as nothing horrible happens, I'm in. Just in case people don't know, I'm getting an internship at the FBI this summer doing something with computer forensics I think. I dunno, its gonna be pretty cool. I start in June, and its only a couple of months. So ya, thats that.
Aside from that, there's been lots and lots and lots of school. More school than I really know what to do with. I literally am at school all day most days, from 10 to 7 or 8 doing various things. I got my job doing tutoring back, so now basically I sit around and get paid for it 2 days a week. On top of that, I'm not tutoring my younger brother, who for all intensive purposes, has dug himself so deep in the homework shit hole that he needs a fleet of tractors to pull him out.
So overall, my classes are going ok. I'm kinda not doing so hot in my business ethics class, probably because I keep blowing it off for stupid things, like, anything but that class. I don't study for the tests, so they kinda come back and kick me in the ass just a little bit, but I don't know how I did on the most recent one, so ya. It seems like all my tests fall around the same time, and it just gets really busy. On top of that, I have like, 2 massive semester long projects that I have to keep working on, which is kinda annoying. Oh well, better than tons of homework.
So while I haven't been at school, or things like that, I try to spend as much time as humanly possible with the greatest person in the world, ever :)! (And sometimes, I try to squeeze in some time to see Meagan). I'm totally kidding of course, I try to spend every spare weekend with Meagan. In the last few weeks I've seen her quite a bit. A couple of weeks ago, me and Jonathan went to Lubbock to see her, and got to experience the joy of a nasty dust storm. I know Dallas got one, but so did Lubbock, and it was kinda cool. Everything was brown and stuff. It was a whole lot of fun. And last weekend, we went to Anson to hang out and party, and of course, move giant bags of stuff into a big hole. That part was dull, but there was more fun than I could hope to describe outside of that. We made fun of so many horrible things, like blind people and their ability to take pictures... So much fun. Anson is really a lot of fun for being in the middle of nowhere. We also saw Wild Hogs, which was a good movie. You should watch it.
And of course, no entry would be complete without the section about how awesome Meagan is. She is an absolutely amazing person, and anyone who hasn't had the pleasure of hanging out with her, is totally missing out. I'm going up there Wednesday to bring her home for her spring break, which of course, isn't with mine. But, we're still going to have a lot of fun that week.
So really, overall, life is pretty good. I'm doing ok, looking for a place to live next year and all that fun stuff, but this week I'm looking forward to kicking back, taking it easy, and just hanging out with people.

Before I go to bed.....
Its christmas now, as of 7 minutes ago, or when I started posting this. This has been a unique christmas for me. Let me kind of share some bits.
This winter break started out kind of grim. I found out earlier that for a good chunk of my break, Meagan would be gone. I went up to see her for a week, knowing she would only be home for like, 3 days, before going on a cruise for a week, then going to indiana for another 4 days, meaning, as usual, I would be spending my holidays mostly alone.
As luck would have it, I managed to get a cold the night Meagan left, so I've been sick up until about today, great fun. Before she left, my mom surprised us by giving us Trans-Siberian Orchestra tickets. It was an amazing show, from great seats. It was an absolute blast. That was Saturday. Its weird, saturday night, it was so hard to say good bye. I mean, I knew she would be back, and it would be sooner than usual, but somehow, this was so much harder. I can't imagine how January 9th is going to feel.....
But anyway, between a combination of free flights, and an early christmas gift, I was able to get a flight to Indiana so I could spend the last part of christmas with her, so its going to be good. As the year comes to a close, I realize how much has changed. Especially me, I'm looking at life in such a different way now. I'm looking more long term, doing things, and planning things for my future, making decisions now that are directing how I will live my life and what all will be going on.... frankly its a little scary. Overall though it kind of isn't. I dunno.
Overall this holiday season has been a little melancholy, we didn't really decorate until like 6 days before christmas, and even then, barely. We just finished wrapping presents. I talked to my mom about it, and she told me its just growing up, and I buy that, but I still kind of get those moments, where I feel like a little kid again. We watched It's a Wonderful Life tonight, just like old times. It was kinda nice. Curled up by the fire, Lucy curled up next to me, the smell of cooking cinnamon rolls.... its all so fun. I did serious christmas shopping for my family this year, more so than ever before, as in, I used my money, 100% my money, to do the shopping, and it feels kinda good. I was a little disappointed in church this year, but not totally, they switched back to using real candles again, and when they turn the lights out, and all the candles are lit, it still gives me chills, it always will I hope. I feel better now, and am definately looking forward to tomorrow morning because I get the best gift of all, I get to go see my baby on christmas, and that, I think, is the best thing about christmas, is spending it with those you love.
So with this long kinda rambling entry, I hope everyone who still reads this has a merry christmas. I hope you all get to spend it with those you love, and may god bless all of you in this season. Merry Christmas everyone

10:50 pm
[Link] | So, Meagan expects an update, so here comes one.
Its been like, a whole month since I've actually typed anything here, and it would probably longer if Meagan wasn't threatening to kill me. I have been insanely busy. I've had like, 6 projects and other things due in the last month, and it has all been a hellish ordeal. I applied for and got an internship over the summer with the FBI, so assuming all my background check and such goes ok, I'll have that this summer. Its gonna be cool, I'll be in like, data forensics stuff. So ya, party for that :)!
In the last couple of months, because of some sort of miracle, me and Meagan have managed to see each other weekly somehow. I just got back earlier today, its pretty cool. I love her lots and lots. She's been kinda having some hard stuff going on recently too, so if you would keep her in your thoughts and prayers and such that would be super special.
Other stuff going on, umm, 2 of my cousins have gotten married, not to each other, but like, ya. You know, to women, different women in fact. So if you follow that.... I just found out I took a linear algebra test, bent it over a chair, and rammed a 102 out of its nose. I'm pretty pleased, but the test might be in a little bit of pain....
I've officially learned the hardest thing in the world is getting in the car to drive 6 hours from the person you love. I think I would enjoy chewing on broken glass a little more than that. Overall it just sucks, I hate being so far from her. Its even worse when she's not feeling good, because all I can do is call her and hope I can say something worthwhile, which usually I can't because somehow words don't speak nearly as much as a simple hug will... bleh. Crappy situation. But its ok, we'll make it through it, cuz we're just that awesome.
I've been exceptionally tired for about 3 weeks now, which is cool. Its probably because I gave up sleeping well for stupid things like school, fun, and a relationship. Apparently sleep doesn't agree with all three of those things at the same time, so it just had to be eliminated. Well, at least good sleep. Last week, we were going up to lubbock to watch one of my cousins get married and our car died. Long long story, extremely long trip, it took something like 12 hours to make a 6 hour drive, then 9 to get back home, but that was for other stupid reasons.... But a long story short, watch out traveling with my parents. If they ever ask you to go on a long family trip, you should prepare for the longest trip of your life. For serious.
I'm running out of thoughts, feelings, experiences, and things of that nature. My christmas break starts December 2nd I think... so umm, if anyone gets horribly bored, I'll probably be horribly bored, so we shold like, totally get together and be bored at the same time!!!!
Good night world

[Link] | mmm, the last 2 weekends have rocked :)! I got to see Meagan all kinds of time, and as of a week ago, we officially made it 1 year together! Huzzah! Life is good.
Ya, this was a terrible update. Sorry.

alone.....
This is so hard... I know, its going to sound and read stupid and mushy, you've been warned.
This weekend was amazing, beyond amazing. Just spending time with Meagan is the best thing in the world to me. I can't imagine anything I would rather do. Honestly, its so much easier to leave when you're being forced to... before I left, she asked me not to leave... and honest to god, the thought crossed my mind, that I could just screw life, and lay there forever.... thats why flying is so much easier, the plane makes you leave... I really do wonder why I'm so responsible sometimes, why can't I just toss things out, and make a stupid decision. Why can't I just stop for one damn minute thinking about the horribleness of change, and why I can't, and make it a reality... why do I keep stopping myself? Why is there always something in the way.... I don't know how many people know what its like to say goodbye to someone, someone you love, and know that you won't be seeing them again for 3 weeks.... How hard it is knowing that its lucky if we get to see each other more than once a month... ONCE a month.... Its just so hard, and I still don't understand why neither of us can change... and why that bothers me so much, and makes me feel so terrible... I just keep saying it will get better, somehow, and we have winter and summer to push for, and hold us over until the next year... but its just... I can't explain... I feel so alone right now, knowing that I won't be falling asleep in her arms, and waking up to her smiling face, knowing that when she calls me in tears telling me she misses me, the one thing I want to do is hold her closer and tell her it will all be ok, but I can't.... I can just sit and listen. I can't reassure her, I can't even smile for her. I just wish this could be easier.... any way.... I can't wait for the day, when she can ask me not to leave, and I can look into her eyes and tell her I won't ever leave her, but now, goodbye is a reality of our relationship. leaving is a reality. and distance is a reality. It is hard, but I love her, I love her more than anything, and thats what makes this all worth it....
*sigh* I need to go to bed.... and I'll lie in bed, alone, wishing she was here, clutching into the empty space next to me, imagining that its her there beside me.........
why can't this be easier.....

01:47 am
[Link] | So, its been like a month, so mabe I should put something here.
I'm just going to lay it flat out, right now I feel kinda like I'm drowning. Just a little bit, things seem to be messed up all over the place. Partly its adjusting back to the school thing, partly adjusting to Meagan being gone, and I dunno, just everything.
So school started a week ago, and already the work is piling up. I'm taking 17 hours, oh joy! I got into the CS honors program, which really just means I get to subject myself to harder classes because I must be masschistic or something like that... and maybe some promise of having some cool looking words on my diploma... ya... But thankfully, I have no less than 1000 things to do this weekend, and I'm freaking out. I've stressed myself into a sickness almost, and my body really isn't happy, sparing all the gory details, its just not much fun at the moment.
Its hot. Really hot. I know, everyone else reading this is probably in the same hot... but still... hot. My room is hot. FOr some unfair reason, me the one who likes it freakin cold, gets stuck in the room that is apparently the hottest. BUt I did manage to turn my fan up without it making noises, and thats exciting.
I have no clue why I'm awake doing this. With so much else to do, this is the last thing I should be doing right now, but instead of going to bed, I'm typing this stupid post... which I shouldn't be doing because its not on my to do list hanging above me. I have like, 5 things to do tomorrow and this weekend, and i feel like I just don't have any extra time. I want to hang out with people, I want to talk to Meagan, I want all kinds of things, but wonderfully, I have to sacrifice somehting, and recently I've been making sacrifices in the wrong places, because lets face it, I'm stupid.
So I just spent like, the last hour and a half cleaning the kitchen, and some more of the living room. I've become almost obsessed.... I don't know whats wrong with me. Cleaning is so counter productive, because it will never be clean completely, and I have so many other things to do, like the reading that I should have done today that I didn't... oops. I have like, 2 quizzes next week, then 2 homeworks due the next, then a project due the next. I have to get measured for a tux for my cousins wedding some time tomorrow, and on top of all that, I'm sure there are other things I'm forgetting.
I kind of have some things on my mind now, but I'm not really feeling all up to typing them right now. Really, I'm tired, I'm feeling crappy, and I think I feel another wave of blech coming on, so with that, I'm going to bed.
Oh, and me and Meagan have been together 11 months as of yesterday! huzzah! and only 38 more years before I get to you know, see her again. joy joy joy...

12:01 am
[Link] | I realize its been about a month since I last updated, and really, not a whole lot has gone on out of the ordinary. I've hung out with Meagan a lot, and thats been great, I've done some moving, still need to do some unpacking, and hung out some with G, Bob, Pete, and maybe Ashley once... I've missed those guys though, and its been fun.
In other news, Daniel and Jonathan are rolling through Denton this weekend, which will be cool in a bucket, so with any luck I'll get a chance to talk to them. Overall its been a good summer so far, my classes are going well, work is going well, and I've managed not to adjust the number of hours I sleep from my normal semester totals. Its been good. Exausted by friday, sleep until horrible hours on saturday, repeat.
I don't know how many people still read this, probably not that many since most have moved over to myspace, which unfortunately, I also have one to keep in touch with those who don't communicate like normal humans.
So I didn't just make this because I felt the need to discuss my life, I'm feeling slightly contemplative so here it goes...
First and foremost, I miss a lot of people. I spen a lot of time with Meagan, but you have to understand, after this month, I only get to see her maybe once a month until christmas. Its kind of sucky, thus, the crappiness of distance relationships, but I don't regret it one bit. [mushy moment] I really do love her, and she means the world to me [/mush].
That being out of the way, I miss hanging out with people. I feel like I've grown so much farther away from so many people, I don't feel nearly as close to my other friends as I used to, and it seems like Meagan and G and Pete are the only people that I don't live with that I hang out with much. Not that I'm nesecerrily saying thats a bad thing, they're all awesome people, I just miss some of my high school friends. You know, the ones who you were going to keep in touch with, the ones you were going to hang out with when you were in town, all those. Its so hard when you fall out of touch with people to just pick up, and maybe I was disillusioned about that, that everything would be the same with everyone when I came back for the summer, that we'd all just hang out, and party, and the old groups I'd hung out with would all be intact, completely the same... but thats not how it works. You drift away from your friends. You realize the common thread you had with them was school, and when thats gone, sure you do a little bit of keeping in touch, but outside of that, it just kind of falls away... Its sad really. Sometimes I feel unconfortable around them, because so much has happened, and I just wasn't a part of it. We have so little in common anymore than we used to hang out. Its tough, and kind of hard for me to swallow I guess. Even my good friends have changed so much, I don't remember the last time me, alex, andy, daniel, and jonatahn just sat around, and acted stupid... Everyone seems so different, and i feel so the same... did I just not grow up? Is this the person I'm going to be? Is that a good thing?
School scares me. I'm not a social person. It was easier last year, especially in the freshman building. Almost no groups, cliques, nothing, just people who were equally as scared and lonely as you. Then something happened. Something that I was afraid of. Groups formed. And I didn't catch the bandwagon... I don't have a regular group I hang out with. I don't have any clubs, I'm not a huge partier. It seems like I didn't make any friends who were what I would consider close. How did I even get them before? They just kind of fell into my lap, well, I'm still waiting for them to fall into my lap I guess. I don't like sticking myself out there, but I really don't feel like I belong to any group. The only people I've really met have been through Justin and Nigel, I mean, Yochevid, Mae, Jerry, Matt, that about covers all the people I ever hang out with at school... and those were all through Justin. Maybe I need to find an activity. Maybe I should just sit around all day at random spots on campus until someone strikes up a conversation. I don't like to start conversations, because I don't like to carry them, and I never know what to make small talk about. I don't like sports, I don't watch a lot of tv shows, and I don't keep horribly up on current events. And I am not going to talk purely about "nerdy crap", because even I have a limit. I'm afraid that when I go back, I'm going to be all alone. Meagan will be hundreds of miles away, and I'll be in my room, alone, the world passing me by, with no friends... I'll end up like a hermit, locked in my room. Maybe thats just who I am, maybe I'd be best locked in a little cubicle for the rest of my life... *shurgs* whatever.
Just as a random side note, to everyone who reads this and knows me, thank you. Thank you for being in my life. Even if you aren't so much anymore, you have no idea how much I appreciate all of you. You have all been there for me at different times, and you have all been there exactly when I needed you, and exactly what I needed you for. I only hope that we don't stop talking and hanging out, and if we have, that sucks, and if we do in the future, that sucks, and we should totally fix that. But seriously, thank you. You are all awesome. I was thinking about that tonight, how many amazing people I've met, and maybe thats why I don't know how I can meet more, because there is such a high standard... I dunno. But you are all amazing. Thank you for everything all of you have ever done for me.
Now I'm going to bed before this gets any worse, cheesier, cornier, or makes people laugh even harder...

[Link] | So I haven't really updated in forever, and I probably won't update much this summer. It pretty much consists of the following:
I wake up around 7, go to work until noon, then either come home and nap, or go to UTD and go to class, then I go to class at eastfield, then I come home, eat, and usually hang out with Meagan! Its been pretty awesome. I've done some fun stuff, like, hung out with G, Bob, Ashley, and things like that. Gone to some of those concerts by the lake, which were fun, and overall, its been a pretty good summer.
Today is the most amazing person in the world's birthday... no, not mine, its Meagan's!!
Happy Birthday Meagan!!!
And tonight I'm accompaning her to a Rascall Flats concert, which should be pretty stinkin awesome.
Yay summer!!

[Link] | So its time to update, its been forever since I have, so naturally, its assumed that something substantial is coming.. but it isn't.
So my last entry, like, a month ago, was the tale of woe about my stupid project, which I am happy to report is finished, dead, done, and got a solid A, and a couple of compliments from the professor. So that was cool. After that, I spent my time studying for exams, trying to figure out how I was going to work this summer when I didn't think I'd have a job, but I ended up having one, but only for half the time, so I decided to do some summer school, and oh ya, exams. My exams went well. My grades came through, they look like this:
CALCULUS II A
U.S. HIST SURVEY FROM CIVIL WAR A-
DISCRETE MATH FOR COMPUTING I A
PRINCIPLES OF UNIX A
PHYSICS LABORATORY I B
MECHANICS AND HEAT A+
I don't really know about my next semester schedule though, because I'm taking discreet math 2 this summer, I have to put something else in its place next semester, and I haven't really decided what yet. Thats kinda on my to do list, as well as register for classes at eastfield and solve world hunger.... hmmm... ya. I also kinda have to pack some of my stuff up too, I don't know how much time I'm going to be spending here this summer, and I don't know when I'm movin to my new apartment for that matter... I'll be around here occasionally though, but I'll probably spend most of my time in Rockwall. So you know, if anyone reads this, and happens to be terribly bored this summer, I only work until noon...
Speaking of work, I started work today. This half day thing is kinda nice, and the nothing in the afternoons is too, but it'll get a little more hectic once my classes all start up. It shouldn't be too bad though.
Last weekend I went with my brother and my parents on the first ever rockwall heath high school band trip. It was in corpus, and it was pretty fun. I don't really know a lot of the kids, but the parents that went were a surprising amount of fun. The trip included a night in the ER with a girl who got a contact stuck in her eye, trying to stay awake, making bad jokes about plucking each other, and the good old candy bar in the pool looks like poop trick.. except I ate the "poop"... ya, it was fun. Minus all the driving, apparently because I can function on less sleep better than my parents, I was elected to drive all the way there, all the way home, and anywhere in between... yay! *gag*
Tomorrow is gonna be cool. I'm gonna go to work for a bit, then probably sit around, have some food, then Meagan will be home! yay! I totally haven't seen her in like, next to forever, or 3 weeks... but thats close to forever. It's gonna be wicked awesome. The rest of my week will probably consist of some work, some relaxing, some sleeping, and lots of meagan. And some of anyone else who wants to do stuff, really, call, we'll chill out or something, it'll be hard core pimpin the cheezouse yo! ya, I'm too black for my own good... I think I'm going to take a nap
Current Mood:  tired
