| i'm obsessed with myspace right now. if i don't post much on here check that out
myspace.com/jessiann16 | | |
| so i'm kind of bored.
i just finished cleaning my bedroom. it's decent i guess. i don't think it's done yet, i still have some other things to do.
not much is really going on in the world of jessi. i've started looking for flights to chicago in april. there isn't a whole lot out there now. unless i want to pay $500 and make 4 stops in louisville, atlanta, cincinatti, then chicago. that's ridiculous! so i'll be on the lookout for the in the next couple of months. does anyone find it kind of crazy that i'd rather fly than drive? i mean 45 minutes compared to 4 hours, not counting traffic and getting my happy ass lost in downtown chicago. then there parking. ugh ... thank you no, i'll pay $100 and fly. i guess i'm pretty lazy when it comes down to it.
i joined the gym at age. it's pretty darn nice ... not to mention the inspiration in the form of some adorable boys. i figure i'm 10 minutes from there and it's $20 a month so i should take full advantage of it!  i'm going to be sleek and svelte in no time (or a couple of months whichever).
work is going pretty good. there's some controversy stirring though. in some meetings there has been a lot of talk about sexual harassment and a hostile work environment. there are areas now that you get called into a meeting if you cuss. so imagine you just royally jacked up a trade for $20,000 ... what are you going to say? gosh darnit. trust me ... there are other things that will come to mind first! i understand the whole sexual harassment, blah blah blah thing. but apparently now it's streching outside of work too. so if someone sees something go on at a bar, or whatever they can report it and get the parties in trouble. so in a dept that is big on happy hours, we all must be on our best behavior because some of the supers like to come out with us. can i not give people hugs now? i know it's not professional to do it at work, but if it happens outside then it's ok as long as neither party has any issues. seriously ... people are stupid.
i understand you need to cover yourself, but come on! we're adults. if someone doesn't have a problem with me smacking them on the butt, then why should a third party. if it's not brought into the work place then what is the problem? ugh.
so anyway ... what else. oh yeah i'm heading home this weekend. grandma isn't doing so well. she's in the hospital with a blood clot in her leg and one in her lung, pneumonia, and heart issues. i want to go see her soon since i didn't get to see my grandparents over thanksgiving or christmas. i just keep realizing more and more that i miss my family. but what can i do about it? i live and work 1 1/2 hours away. we all have stuff going on and have busy schedules. i just almost envy my friends that live with their parents. very few bills, family always there. ok so i really envy the few bills thing. maybe not the family ALWAYS there. that could be old. i just wish i could go home for dinner some night after work if i wanted to. so anyway ... that's what's up with family and grandma.
i guess i'll go vacuum now and sweep my kitchen and bathroom. wow my life is boring.
i have my workout consult next tuesday so allison can slowly begin to kill me. she's all giddy cause i gave here 5 nights and 1 1/2 hours at the gym to play with. i think i might regret this ... no i know i won't regret it!
the vacuum awaits. | | |
| typically i'd rather shoot myself than make a bunch of new years resolutions that never really pan out. but i figure i spent a new years all alone and got to think a lot about stuff.
1 - friends ... really good ones that actually live in this city
2 - better music ... i've slipped into radio and it kills me
3 - manage money better ... wow did i jack that one up last year
4 - get in better shape (a weekend of fast food and soda will make you feel like crap)
5 - spend more time with my family ... i miss them
6 - keep up better with my old friends ... they rock!
7 - be happier ... i spend so much time being frustrated about stuff out of my control.
8 - find prince charming and live happily ever after ... HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
so #1 ... i've come to the conclusion that unless i have really good friends around me i'm pretty miserable. maybe that's been the problem so much lately. most of my friends here don' appreciate the art of staying at home and watching movies. must we always go to a bar? i think not. while i have tons of fun when we go out ... it's boring to watch people get drunk when you're not (which causes you to drink more which causes you to spend money)
#2 - i've been listening to TOOOO much radio lately. it's killing me
#3 - i'm broke ... i don't like it ... i need to change that
#4 - i can save money by not getting chubbier and having to buy new clothes. plus i feel like crap most of the time.
#5 - while family has a tendency to drive me crazy ... i miss them like crazy! considering most of them are scared to come down here i have no choice but to go home and spend time with them
#6 - when i'm at home i can spend time with my friends there. plus i suck at keeping contact with people (just ask gc people!). looking back on the times when i've been the happiest it was usually because of people i don't talk to that often
#7 - be happier. i feel like an idiot writing that after today. i left work ready to quit, staple things to a certain persons head, and ready to cry just on principle. i just need to adjust my attitude and be happier
#8 - prince charming ... does he really exist? well for a bunch of my friends yes. that's about the only thing that gives me hope. kerry wood and mark prior and bono are all married ... i'm still holding out hope for orlando bloom, dominic monaghan, or john mayer. things aren't looking so good in this department. | | |
| i moved ... i don't know when i'll be able to start doing better updates. i had a great new years. stewie griffin, star wars, and sex in the city. it sure does beat waking up with a head ache and throwing up all day. look at me ... i'm growing up 
happy anniversary to bill and tina. i'm bummed you guys didn't make that party a yearly thing ... that was awesome!
i'm in soulard now so no one has any excuse not to come visit me. i'm not in the burbs and i'm a couple of blocks from the greatest pub in st. louis.
so i need to finish cleaning up at my old apt.
call me and we'll schedule a play date. | | |
