SLEEP

So I slept in today thank God, I needed that! Usually when I want to sleep in my lovely old retired neighbor decides he wants to wake up at the butt crack of dawn and tinker in his backyard (which just so happens to be RIGHT next to my bedroom window. It drives me nuts! It is not like he really does anything productive either...He moves nails and rearranges things... "tinkers" On one hand I gotta feel compassionate b/c well he is OLD and is probably at that stage where he would like to sleep too but he can't due to his old age insomnia...But then on the other I just want to SLEEP! Sometimes I feel like yelling "please stop, for the love of God people sleep at 7am on a Saturday!" but I never do, instead I throw my comforter over my head and hope to fall back asleep. But today, no tinkering! (THANK YOU OLD MAN NEIGHBOR)
*blows kiss*

Okay so after some wonderful sleep and sweet dreams I started my day, I went to Costco; call me insanely crazy or sick but I actually like going to Costco... I am not saying I like the mass amounts of people or people's little hellians running around; I just like Costco. I like walking around each aisle and looking...It is sort of fascinating I mean really what is a normal person going to do with a TUB of stuffed green olives? Really can a person eat that may before they go bad? Oh and I learned that the average median income of a regular Costco shopper is $70,000 or $75,000 I don't quite remember...That fun fact was brought to you by Josh.

Josh background:
He is a co-worker of mine who accompanied me to Costco, we were talking about socks at work (I know fascinating huh?) and we got on the subject of how I like to buy my socks at Costco (so does he coincidentally) and I told him I might go out there (a whole 10 miles away) so he said if I do to call him, well he ended up calling me right after I woke up to see if I still wanted to go. We met up there and OF COURSE his girlfriend tagged along mostly because she is so insecure about herself. She is very lucky to have a boyfriend who loves her SO much and yet she is so mean to him! Josh is so sweet, one of the sweetest genuine guys I know; he just recently took his girlfriend to Europe for a month and his sole goal he told me was to make his girlfriend happy! I mean wow he had no concern about himself he just wanted to make her happy. I personally think he feels bad for her, I do think that he REALLY loves her but I think that he would have moved on had it not been for her poor health. He told me he is going to put in his two week notice next Friday and I am really bummed, he is so much fun to work with. I will really miss him too since he will be moving back up north like 6 hours. ...So anyway Costco was fun we had an office chair war rolling the office chairs down the aisle while we were in them bumping into each other. Josh and I have most of the same interests and get along really well, I wonder sometimes in the back of my mind if it would be any different if he didn' t have a girlfriend, but it nevers goes beyond that. I am not one to be the homewrecker and break up a relationship, I would never make a move nor would I let anything advance if he still had a girlfriend, I am just not down with being the "other" woman. But I briefly wonder sometimes; especially when he walks me to my car sometimes at night to strike up a convo or he tells me that he really likes talking with me and picking my brain...I think we mildly flirt at work but I try to keep that to a minimum since I am a manager and I have to remain professional. We just have a blast together so the occasional what if crosses my mind sometimes It is weird how I feel guilty even typing that here.

Moving on...

I bought a new pair of jeans today! Yeah, I needed another pair, I went with my friend and her BF to Lucky and we shoped our little hearts out (well all I got was a pair of jeans and a pair of shorts) but we had a blast just being silly. I love hanging out with them they are the cutest couple I know so far.

I should have written my History paper but I procrastinated it back a day... I have till Thursday to write it but I REALLY want to get it done before Tuesday; I have so many chapters to read before I can write it, so I think I might get a coffee early tomorrow and lock myself in at the library reading and typing...I have a hard time focusing if I try to do it at my house, even though it is just me my A.D.D. kicks in bad and I can't study. :(

I flaked out on my friends for Friday beer, I got off work at 10:30 after an extremely long day (had been up since 7...Watching kids, classes...A test, worked 8 hours...), it was cold outside, I was tired and I just didn't feel like killing my liver. Now don't get me wrong I go out all the time without drinking but they spent two days telling me how excited they were to get me drunk on Friday for St. Patty's and I just didn't want to spent the whole night with them explaining why I didn't want to drink and turning drinks down, I wasn't in the festive green beer sort of mood so I told them I got a call and had to pick another friend up who was already drunk and I was going to take care of her...Shameless I know, but I just wanted to go home. Glad I did; I took a nice hot bath, relaxed...Looked at a magazine, just chilled at my house something I don't get to do that often. It was really nice and I got some good sleep. Does that make me old? Oh well. Guess it is bound to happen sometime.

side note; YEAH it's almost summer!!! MY FAVORIST season! (next to fall/winter...Around here fall and winter are basically the same) I just really like the warm nights and the longer days
