"No title"

Well here I am in another academy class bored out of my mind, and Miss Flasher is jumping down my throat about something or other... but whatever. Lifes been okay, but extremely busy, between the JuiceBar, and work at Stop&Shop, I recently started setting up the Last Stop with Andy. I went to New York with him on Monday, which was a blast... We bought some new stuff for the store, and had to pick up several showcases (everything got really really heavy). Nothing like a free trip to NY, we went to CT, NY, NJ, and back... It was cool making stops in all of those different areas. Then yesterday I got to work with Gail again, which was a blast! We're soo close to finishing this coat I can almost taste it! (Sorry no pictures untill it's done!) She went up to get the lining today, and next Tuesday when we meet up again we'll get to throw that together like it's nothing, then the issue with buttons will come in. So far this project has been mostly me doing brainstorming, and a lot of the sewing was me, but I have to give Gail lots of credit for the assistance with the difficult spots, and all of the times that I got stumpped as to what to make next. This time around we ironed down the seams to make it nice and flat. It made it look really nice, but there is this one spot on the middle strip that I need to bring in a little further to make it come out more. I know it's seems confusing talk right now, but when I get some pictures up you'll understand what I meant. I can't wait to have that coat done, now I just have to start worrying about getting myself to AB06... If I don't go after all of this work, I'll probably be very upset with myself.

On a more random note I got the coolest thing in NY! It's an L.E.D. light scrolling belt buckle, which you can program to say different things, probably one of the more fun toys I've had in my life... It's just too bad that I'm in school right now cause I have quite a few messages that are just perfect. xd

Everything with the family has gotten better... finally. Mom went for elbow surgery Tuesday, everything went well, she just can't do much on her own for the time being. Ray and I are at our nuetral level now, same as usual... I can never be above average in his eyes. It's funny though, I feel as if I should be voicing this one but I've kept it in... Chirs get the opportunity to go to the Dropkick Murphys Saturday, and he's grounded at the time being, but my mother and Ray allowed him to go, when it was just last year that I went through the same thing but with no sucess... It really pisses me off, but thats an ace I'll pull later (Like our next argument)

Work related, everything is going smoothley! I've announced that I'm quitting May 15th, and they weren't too shak'n by that. Nor have they fired me yet! I have to work today, which I'm kinda dreading, but I got enough sleep last night to make up for that trip. There is this girl Cassie there too, I think I kinda like her... I dunno though, I can't really say anything off the top of my head about her.

Last Stop related... JACKPOT! This year seems like it's going to be the greatest year so far. I came up with the new product, and it's going to pull in a lot of cash, and I'm the main person (Manager!) so I'm getting like $600 a week just for doing a job that I love! With all of the re-modleing going on I'm really excited to see what it comes out like.

And another random note:

Mariel wont be moving in with me... too bad, her parents said that it wasn't cool... but whatever thats life. Although now I have my eyes set on Tatjana coming down and moving in this summer, we really like eachother, and it'd be awesome to actually be able to see eachother. She is planning on coming here sometime this coming week, which really is too awesome! All in all I'm hoping that she does say yes to moving in, and I hope that her father is cool with it. (Although she is 18, so it really shouldn't matter what the parents say)

May 15th marks a great day for me. I'll be doing more traveling then, then ever! Between AB06, and NY by the time that I'm done I'm going to be so sick of traveling! (YEAH RIGHT!) I get to quit that crumy job, and head over to the best job in the world! It's going to be a legendary Summer.

Tattoo plans! I'm going to wait it out, but once I start making $600 a week I'll be able to COVER myself in all of the tattoos that I've ever wanted to get. It'll be great, but quite painful! I have three planned for my neck, one for my waist up to around my armpit, one for my wrist, and with my buddy Steve doing some artwork I'll be getting more and more! Grandma is going to faint when she sees me next!



Okay! Well I think thats about all I can type about for now... I've wasted enough time, so I guess it's time to get back to work, maybe... mrgreen
