Sorry about the posting drought. I’ve been very busy with work and then have been tired afterwards. This has been my first chance in quite a while to post. I could post while I’m at Robert’s (I’m there most of the time), but then I have to log him out of lj in order for me to post. Too much trouble if you ask me. So my life has been pretty calm. On Saturday evening I went over to Minneapolis to visit my best friend Meghan. It had been forever since I’ve seen her. We went to Target where I bought one of my favorite games…Sorry! Then we went to a coffee shop and sat and chatted. We talked from 9-11 when the closed. We headed back to her apartment and proceeded to chat somemore. We started to dye her hair at 1:15. We didn’t actually get to bed until 2. For those of you who know what my summer has been like, that is the latest I’ve been up since before finals! Ugh. The alarm started going off at 8 on Sunday morning, and we finally got our butts out of bed at 9 so we could get ready for church. I headed back home after church at 12:30.
This weekend is going to be interesting. I’m sort of nervous about it. Robert is going to my family reunion with me. His parents are riding down with us to visit a family memeber. Since both of our parents will be in the same town, we figure they might as well meet. So our parents will be meeting each other on Friday. That is the part I’m nervous about. I’m also not sure how my family will react to me bringing a guy. Since with my family it is typical that significant others don’t go to family events unless engagement has either happened, or will happen soon. I’m breaking that tradition. Oh well.
Robert has been wanting me to go to Canada with him to visit a friend. So I am asking for next Friday off so we can have a 3 day weekend. Hopefully it will be approved. Hannah is going to talk to Paul about it and let me know. That is my last weeken of freedom before the KC Chiefs get here. After that, I belong to the university until they leave. I’m just going to be dead tired by August 22. I still need to call Lisa back at Dean to find out my testing schedule. Maybe I’ll do that this afternoon if I remember.
I really don’t know too much else. Work is still the same. I’m feeling more and more like and outcast each day. Luckily I get along with the full-timers and have fun with them when possible. Things between Robert and I are going well, in case that wasn’t obvious earlier. I need to give Liz a call soon and just chat with her. Maybe I’ll do that tonight as well.
But it’s time for me to go. I’m tired and I want to see my apartment. I’ll write more later.a
