It's the Little Things..

For all of you who were having trouble sleeping last night don't worry, Ex. #1's eye is fine. He went to the Doctor today and they gave him some eye drops that I assume are anti-inflammatory. He has decided that once his moron-friend gives him the $111 he is owed he will break-off any left-over ties to that guy.

Unless someone calls me tomorrow it looks like Millie will be going to Dallas Saturday to live with Ex. #1. Now that she is healthier she is quite the puppy! She has chewed up both of her bowls, a dog-brush, her old collar, and pulled her bed out of the crate and strewn pieces of it about the back yard. You would think that she didn't have any toys out there but she does! All kinds of durable, chewable things. She even ate a tiny lavender seedling and the pot it was growing in. Bless her little puppy heart, I am going to miss her. She slept with me today all snuggled up like a hairy little heater.

I found the point I need on my test, now all I need is contact with the professor so that I can get the point, and get my passing grade. If he doesn't email me tomorrow I am calling him on Monday.

My little sister had a date tonight! My parents were standing in the driveway when he brought her home - How embarrassing! They never did that stuff to me, but I never had dates either.

Isn't it weird how you can go a long time knowing someone very generally with out really knowing anything about them? I knew Kerri on the bus for 2 years before knowing anything about her and now I'm SO GLAD I met her. Ellie was in my NALit class last semester and I knew only who she was and now that we are in the same class I know so much more about her. It was the same way with Tracey, and Alex. Apparently I am really good at making last minute friends. But Ellie and I talked for 1 1/2 hours today after class instead of studying or going home. Hopefully she was enjoying herself and not thinking, "My God does this girl shut up?" I tried not to be my usual self and let her have her word in edgewise. It amazes me that I have such incredible people around me at al times and I never know it.

I got a new camera, expect to see more pictures soon, as well as an audio clip on my profile. Yay! So far all I have recorded is a small clip of me singing, I'm not sure how I feel about that idea.

And last: Security. Last night he said, "Where I'm living - Taylor got them a new HEB and they got them a new Wal-Mart. I'm excited to see what they got in that new Wal-Mart." I wanted to ask who Taylor was and why he was handing out stores to people. Instead I decided to burst his bubble and said, "I bet they have all of the same things all of the other Wal-Marts have." I also realized last night that he has a hump, like Igor. This explains why he walks sort of hunched over. He scoots along with his head sorta tilted (plus his ticks). My mom said she felt sorry for him. I told her to try and work with him two days in a row and see how she felt, So she told me I should be praying about this.

My sister started going on dates before I did. How sad... she was a freshman dating a senior and I was a sophomore dating absolutely no one. Talk about embarassing.

Jeez, and here I thought I was the one making YOU stick around for an hour and a half... and I was the one talking and talking and talking... Well, but there's no disputing that my 1 1/2 hour coffee-driven Thoreau rant at Peet's yesterday was all my fault. Talk about not letting people get words in edgewise-- I'm not sure I allowed you to breathe that whole time. Anyway, there's never any question that I, at least, am thoroughly enjoying hanging out with you. This morning you weren't here and I actually had to... study. Awful.
