Once again, it's been a long time since I've posted. I guess this something else I'll have to work on. So anyway. Let's see if I can bring you up to date on what's been happening the last two weeks.
1. I found some really great apartments, so I'll be checking those out soon. All of the complexes are near where I work, so that's also nice. I'll be moving there by fall, at the latest. It'll take me at least that long to get all my junk out of the attic, sorted through, and packed up. Then I have to tackle my room. :-D
2. This item has to do with the volleyball team. Sharon wonders why I haven't kicked Arnie yet, as does Chief (aka Darius). After the games on Thursday, I am too! Kim and Jeff, Heidi and Neal, and Rebecca and Brian haven't been there in awhile. Rumor has it that Rebecca is pregnant, so we're happy for her. Nobody, not even Jen, knows what's up with Don. But then again, he sometimes acts weird like this. There's only a few girls on this team. One of them has a torn ACL. Apparently it was caused by a bone chip from one of the dives she'd taken during a practice.
3. My older sister is getting married in September. I found that out from Dad. It's kinda funny because they're getting married in less than four months and I haven't even met my future brother-in-law yet! All I know about him is what Dad told me. He sounds like a nice guy, so.... But I did see the rock he gave my sister and she's thrilled, so that's all that really matters. Plus they'll only be living about 45 minutes from where I'm moving to. I wish my sister would have told me sooner, but she's got a right to keep it a secret if she wants. And it's my own fault for not keeping in touch like I should.
4. I got a new monitor for my computer today. For those of you who didn't know or have only recently started following this saga, the monitor on my laptop died New Year's Eve. I'd been using an old one, but now this one's being retarded. They had to order the one I wanted, so it'll be here in about two weeks. I can't wait.
5. I got an ice cube tray with thingies for the cubes that are shaped like fish.
6. Next weekend my dad and his wife are taking me shopping for apartment furniture. I'm sort of organized about that. I know how I want the bathroom decorated, so that's a start. Right now the major debate is what furniture I want in the living room and where to put my desk. I checked these places out online, and they look awesome. I just have to take "real" tours, just to make sure that I'd actually be happy living in that complex. We were appliance shopping today. At this point, I don't think I'll have to worry much because my dad's wife kept saying, "You need this, you need this, you need this. Oh, and, you'll need that too. And maybe even one of those." *at this point Jen rolls her eyes* By the time she gets done picking stuff out, I'll have to wonder if there'd be any room for me in the new place!
7. We've found these thermal patches as a temporary solution to the problem I've been having with my knee. What I really need to do is stay out of volleyball for awhile and give it a chance to heal. Plus get knee pads in case I have to take a dive. Right now the biggest fear is that I'll end up like Pam (the girl I mentioned above). That, and if I did, I wouldn't give it the chance to heal. Part of the reason I'm suffering now is because I didn't let my knee heal when I first dislocated it almost three-and-a-half years ago.
8. I went tanning on Saturday, out of sheer boredom. I also got to see the swim team instructor/coach. He's a nice guy, and everybody thinks he is so cute. I guess he's not bad looking, but he certainly doesn't seem to be interested in the lifeguards that think he's hot. Whatever.
9. I also learned a few lessons, but those can be discussed at another time, or (preferably) one-on-one if you so wish.
