i'm excited
my iPod is shipping today!!  if it had shipped from Nevada i would've gotten it today...damn you amazon
also last week i ordered some CDs off amazon

Pink Floyd-The Wall
Oingo Boingo-Dead Man's Party & Only a Lad

HAHAHA

so that apartment fell through.  my dad has an eviction on his record from the house when we lived over in the evergreen area, but it wasn't even legal cause the owner of the house did that cause he wanted to SELL THE HOUSE.  hello retard, it's called GIVING 60 DAYS NOTICE
G and I have decided not to put my dad on the lease for now. 
what pisses me off about that other complex is that the MANAGER KNEW US and told my dad "Bob, you're welcome back any time!"
you'd think by that she would pull some strings or just NOT include my dad on the lease.  i understand she's doing her job, but don't tell him he's welcome back and do shit like that. 

i didn't really want to live there anyway, they wanted $600 for a PET DEPOSIT and i was like WTF my cat is 14 and sleeps all day (i didn't mention baxter haw haw haw)
anyway we're going to check out a duplex tonight, i hope it's nice. the pictures looked ok.  it's only temporary, i have to keep telling myself that :)

so this whole exercise/eating healthy thing G and I have been doing for about 3 weeks now. 
and i feel better, still tired in the morning, but it takes a while for your body to adjust

anyway so the weight has been coming off SLOWWWWWWWW and i'm like WHYYYYYY AREN"T YOU MELTING OFF
and it doesn't help that i've been obsessively weighing myself.  when we move, we aren't buying a scale
i weighed myself last night, which is STUPID after a day of eating and sitting on your ass at work
i told myself monday i would wait 2 weeks, but i didn't.
and G gets mad cause i told him i wouldn't weigh myself and he's like "STOP DOING THAT TO YOURSELF"
and i'm like "I KNOW I KNOW but I CAN'T HELP IT!!!"

so today would've been a week from when i officially weighed myself last week and the week before...friday AMs...empty stomach etc etc
and as of today i've lost 8lbs, which is a little disappointing, but good!

but what i'm most happy about is the inches i've lost.  i haven't been measuring myself, but i need a belt to hold my pants up
and i used to wear it on the 3rd notch, 2nd notch on "fat days" haha
just 2 weeks ago i had to put it on the 4th notch, so that's like 2 inches in my waist i've lost at least
and since then i've been wearing it on the 4th notch, but i noticed today that my pants were still too baggy, so i got it onto the 5th notch!
i'm so happy!  that's like 3 inches i've lost on my waist.  that's nuts!

now if i could just get rid of this gut, heh.

in regards to everyone doing this...i think it's cool

1. Go To Mapquest.com
2. Click on Directions
3. Enter your current address and the address of your childhood home (or at least the town if you don't remember the exact address)
4. Put the time and distance in a post like this.

BUT STOP USING MAPQUEST YOU TARDS!!! Yahoo Maps is better
plus they use my company's software...hahaha

Me: i miss you too

I was sad all day until I left around 5pm today. I hung out with hfrogg451bea. we had hamburgers and beer then i got a spongebob calendar for me and G and Spaceballs on DVD.

Just talking to him helped so much. Bea was talking to my roommate about how I was bummed out and he's all "uh why is she sad?"
what a dolt!!! He doesn't spend every free moment he has with his gf, plus they just started going out. AND it's especially hard because I don't get to spend New Year's with him, no kissy kiss. I've got Alex and Bea to hang out with, so I feel way better. We're going to Popscene on Thursday, I'm so excited!!!

Tomorrow, I will not eat as much...blah! I only had cereal, broccoli until we went out to have a hamburger. I didn't even eat that much then...haha
wtf why do i feel so BUHAHAHAHA.

K back to watching Law and Order

Me and my sister got in a huge argument today.  I called her yesterday to ask what Anthony liked for toys and she said "well we can't come out, i have to use the money to pay for a new transmission" so whatever i hang up on her, i'm mad.  i know my dad was looking forward to this, so was i...i miss my niece and nephew. 
so here starts the emails.

I'm not going to be all happy cheery to you right now, but I'm not going to ignore you.  That's what you do to me when I’m mad.

From: Rachael Jones [mailto:rachieeeee@yahoo.com]
I don't have to understand because there are many things you could've done to prevent this.  Dad is being nice, that's why.  I'm mad because you KNOW he's sick and you've KNOWN since MARCH...9 months ago.  You could've been saving this whole time, not just the past couple months just in time for Christmas.

I came in March, and how do you expect me to save a lot of money I have bills and rent to pay I don't make that much money.


-----Original Message-----
From: Rachael Jones [mailto:rachieeeee@yahoo.com]
I'm not even going to start about your money situation.  You're an adult, you figure it out, don't make me feel guilty about you not being able to save money, afford this that blah blah blah.  This was more about dad than anything.  How would you feel if I told you I was saving and me and dad were coming out to visit and OOPS my car died, I can't come out.  Don't say you would understand, because you wouldn't.

Catherine H <> wrote:
Well It would be easier for you to come out here then it would be for me and the kids and just because my Husband doesn't work I cannot afford daycare and mom is a drunk so oh well I wouldn't understand well you guys have it easier to come out here

-----Original Message-----
From: Rachael Jones [mailto:rachieeeee@yahoo.com]
Yeah it's easier for us to go out there.  Dad is sick, so traveling is OUT; I can't take PAID vacation because I took all my vacation off to TAKE CARE OF DAD.  I didn't want to bring your HUSBAND into this, but maybe if you both worked you COULD AFFORD DAYCARE.  WOW WHAT A CONCEPT.  I"M OVER THIS CATIE and I WILL NOT talk about this further. 

Catherine H <> wrote:
So I would go to work and he would go just to pay for daycare 2 kids 1500 1000 you know never mind if you want to be like this then whatever. And I took all my vacation coming out there in March well bye have a nice Holiday

-----Original Message-----
From: Rachael Jones [mailto:rachieeeee@yahoo.com]
Don't even try to make me feel bad about this.  You don't know the half of what it's like taking care of your dying father because you chose to STAY there.  I'll be however the FUCK I want right now.  You're the one that is going to live with this the rest of your life.  At least I can be rest assured that I've done all that I can for dad to my best abilities.  Go ahead and argue until you are blue in the face, you are WRONG CATHERINE, NOT ME, YOU.  ENJOY YOUR CHRISTMAS.

Catherine H <> wrote:
Well if you know if it was mom you wouldn't come out here for her so I'm done with you have a good life hope you and Gus have a real nice life
Good bye

From: Rachael Jones
HA HA HA I SEE you are pulling a mom...good job Catie.  That's fine by me.  Good luck in your one job life.  And by the way...DAD has done so much more for us than mom ever did, don't compare the two.  And see, I know where my priorities are, I WOULD GO SEE MOM.  You don't know me at all.  I hope you at least let Anthony and Alexandria know what a great grandfather they missed out on because you couldn't suck it up and make your husband get a job. buh bye.  Have a nice life in shitty ass Albuquerque. 
Oh and so you know, you won't get the last word.

Gotta love my sister huh???  She can't just be like "ok well i'm sorry." no she has to keep arguing, bringing up stuff she knows i'll throw right back at her. 
well Merry Christmas Catie, you don't get your present this year.  If you're "done" with me, so be it. 

anyway i have a meeting to go to...blah

Rachie: yeah but luckily i was already in scotts valley
Rachie: but the shoulder is hella tiny

Rachie: LOL
Tammy: did you call G?
Tammy: or AAA?

Rachie: i don't have AAA
Rachie: G came and put on my spare

Tammy: but it's better than nothing
Rachie: haha
Rachie: this was at like 8:30 last night
Rachie: by the time we got home it was after 9:30

Rachie: i felt like an old grandma
Tammy: man, bad day for you too
Rachie: i know!
Rachie: luckily G gave me a ride to work
Rachie: and he's coming back at 5 then we're going to costco to put on the new tire

so today is my Thanksgiving dinner today
the only thing i've done so far is cook the pies, and that was last night hahaha

G got up at like 4am with his cousin and our roommate to go to Frys which opened at 6am haha
so he leaves and i'm like k bye i sleep now *zzzzzzzzzz*
i woke up at 8:45 wondering why he wasn't home yet
but went back to sleep.
then woke up about 15 minutes ago thinking "Where is he??? he just wanted a video card!!!"
so i call him and it goes to his voicemail and i'm like grrr and leave a message but it's a non-grrr one
i see he's online too so i message him
and my sister logs on and i'm venting to her and he calls me back
he said it took them 30 minutes to just get IN frys
then 2 hours to pay for everything
hahahahaa
poor thing
i'm so glad i didn't go, or i would've killed a salesperson
granted i know what kind of pressure they're under working the day after thanksgiving, so i feel for them

anyway the reason i'm waiting on G is cause he has a list of things i need to start the turkey and a bunch of other things
so he's all "oh i went to target and got you a turkey roaster"
then tells me he got me a surprise at Frys but i don't get it till Christmas
see...i get all mad then he does stuff like that hahaha
he's the best...i love him <3
