Panaca Bound!

(sunday night). It isn't very often that I get really excited for something. Something that makes it hard for me to sleep that night. This time around I texted Mike my new number, expecting nothing back. However five hours later, he replied and wanted to hang out with me. And we did by playing tennis for a good two hours and having lunch at Jimmy Johns. It was weird, that I was so excited. I only get that excited when I go and see my best friends. I am beginning to think that I like him. :)

The next night at work went by exceptionally slow. Until 10:15 anyway. Of course we got busy right before we closed at 10:30. It's enough to make me wonder, why do people wait for the last minute? And not just to come get food but just for anything in general. That is something I probably won't understand.

After a frustrating end to a slow night, I closed my eyes. Wednesday will be better, I thought. Waking up at 10:30 is the norm for me now days. I planned out setting out for Panaca around noon my time.

The drive down wasn't too bad. I only had to pass three or four people. Of those, one passed me. Taking the back highway there is the safest, but at the cost of it being a one-way. Passing people therefore is risky. I'm sure my friends could testify to that. There was a close call passing a semi-truck on our way to Alamo with another car coming in the passing lane.

All in all, it made my entire day spending time with those two. We had some new experiences, of which I can cross one off of my bucket list: riding the Sinclair dinosaur. :)  And the usual road trip was a bit unique with Melody's face paltered against my passenger window. ;)

I also got to spend some time in the spring over in Panaca after driving back from Alamo. I was amazed to see that something that cool was natural. There were all kinds of fish swimming by my feet. There were some that hit my feet. Apparently I was tasty.

After many good-byes, I left and eventually made it home around 9:30 my time. I say eventually because of the massive fire in New Harmony that added all kinds of traffic all the way through Enterprise. I was only stopped once so I could be let through to go back home. On the way I noticed smoke was clouding the evening sky, making it appear gray.

Driving back always makes me grip the steering wheel tighter than I should. When I shift my grip, I can feel the soreness around my cold, sweaty fingers. My quickened heart rate doesn't help either. The worst was all the semi-trucks going the opposite direction of me because it seemed like they were going to run over me. Luckily there were no bunnies in the road. Only the massive amount of bugs that were in my front end and my windshield.

I love Sundays.

Sunday 8:29 pm. I'm really going to miss these kinds of days when school's back in. It's days like today that make me reflect on my life over the years. Perhaps it's the quiet time I have with myself. It's just something about sunday.

Today was another day in the pool. For some reason this stood out because of the true happiness I experienced as I swam. The pool felt like a giant, warm bath and I was free to move as I pleased. The wind current was a little ridiculous but lately that seems to be the norm here in town.

After swimming my mom, bro and I got some shakes from our store. My latest fix is our legitimate Oreo milkshake and today's was the best I had ever had. (I say legitimate because there is a difference between a milkshake and a blizzard).Whenever I go get anything while I'm not working it tastes ten times better for some reason.

My mom and I hung up my new wall decor today. The grassy, metal flowers in my bedroom sure do look nice, as does my new copper fish in the bathroom. I can know be sure that I cannot buy anymore due to the lack of space I have.

I feel lucky to have the entire weekend AND monday off this week. This does not happen. I honestly don't know what to do with myself. This all the time in the world thing is kinda beginning to suck. I would love to be spending my precious time with my friends, but sadly most of them don't live in town. Or they're my co-workers. The point is, I don't have much of a social life outside of work. Regardless, I find things to do as this has been the norm since high school, and I have learned to accept that.

My Current Life

Thursday. 2:47 pm. Well guys, it's summer time and that's when the living is easy. I do enjoy having days to myself and the quiet time with my family. Those occasional adventures outside my home town are nice, too.

The things that I love most as of now are the weather, all the time in the world (seems like) my job, and the people in my life-however not in that order. I wake up everyday and continue to do the same things as the previous one and it doesn't bother me. After all, I do love to swim.

Now that I am able to write from my Macbook Pro, I'll be able to post with ease. Before I wrote on my iPad and had to transfer it to our PC. Speaking of PC's, I successfully installed Windows 7 on my mac so now I am able to have the best of both. In all it's been worth it so far because now I have the freedom to play all of my old games. :)

My current obsession is fan fiction about my anime show that I watch. To me it seems a little embarrassing that I still watch and love my show. And I don't want to put the title of it out there because I don't want to be treated differently. But then again my true friends wouldn't do that. So I guess I'll be honest and say that I love Yu-Gi-Oh again. The abridged series is my favorite by far though.

Lately I have been thinking about what I really want. And what keeps coming up is my future husband. I just can't get the thought out of my head. For some reason I want that person now more than ever. I just think of when I'll meet him and how everything will turn out to be. Will it be what I imagined? Will I be happy? For now I'll just let my destiny determine it because I believe in things that way.
