well, its been a crazy past month. i quit my job.. with the economy being so shitty, i know its probably an insane idea.. but we're leaving GA for VA in a few weeks.
i'll be leaving first, on the 6th of february, and daniel will be up after me after he gets his car working properly. i can't really believe that i'm leaving GA. i've been here for over 10 years, although it is constantly pointed out to me that "i dont have any distinguishing accent." which is true. i have a newscaster accent, as do most of the people in northern VA. VA is a southern state, however we dont sound like it i guess.
things will be good once we can get our lives started. thats what i'm most excited about. getting married, having some kids.. and enjoying life. although, i am seriously enjoying this unemployment thing.
i really hate to say that, but it is so nice to relax. i have been busting my ass at work for the past 5 years, with some reward, but not really anything to scream about. not to mention i have had to deal with some of the worst people in the universe. EVERYONE goes to the grocery store. crackheads, snobby rich people, trashy gross people, everyone. and it is ridiculous. but before i get bitter i just want to say.. all of the people that have given me grief over the past years have really taught me how to be patient. through working there, i have learned how to smile and cut someone down.
"no, i'm sorry. your check is DECLINED. have a nice day."
anyway, moving along.
packing has been the worst experience of my life. i hate packing and i would prefer to just get rid of everything and buy new stuff. on the upside, i am able to do some good with my packing && anything i dont need/want/or doesnt fit i can donate to the relief effort in Haiti. some of my former co-workers are Hatian, and all still have family over there, so please remember to keep them in your thoughts & prayers
as far as my life goes, im trying to turn over a new leaf and become more peaceful. i've realized that there is no point in being angry over small things. so PEACE is my new mantra. well.. not really new... i have been through a hippie phase [MIDDLE SCHOOL lol] so 11 year old me is pleased with my new leaf.
i was thinking alot about this: what would your past self say to you now?
me at 11 would probably be pretty pleased with the fact that i am peaceful and silly.. and have incorporated peace love and happiness back into my life.
me at 14 would not like me at all... i mean, at 14 and 15 i was "punk rawk." pink hair, saftey pins, black clothes.. it was awful.. but i love my mom for letting me be who i wanted to be. [;
and me at 16 would be disappointed that our car is broken.. and also pretty angry that im listening to lady gaga and shopping at hollister..
honestly though. its interesting to me to think about what the past me would say to me now. i asked daniel and he had no answers he was just like "he would probably tell me good job on getting with a hottie." LOL [=
continuing....
i have outlined a mission for myself, because i will no longer be living in georgia, i must eat everywhere that i love that they dont have up there.
and those places are as follows:
publix subs, krystals, and zaxbys.
i LOVE publix subs immensely. more than subway.. probably because they are made with the secret ingredients: resentment and annoyance. some people think the bread is too hard [daniel] however, it doesnt turn into dough when im trying to eat my sandwich.. yeah subway, im talking about you.
KRYSTALS is the GREATEST PLACE EVER. i regret not eating there more often. oh those tiny hamburgers. i love tiny food, because i am able to rationalize my eating.. i would never eat two hamburgers, but dammit i will eat 6 krystal burgers.. because they're small.
ZAXBYS has the best chicken ever. oh, i love zaxbys, especially because they give you a big ol' piece of toast with your order. deeelicious. although, i dont appreciate the coleslaw cup. i dont like coleslaw, much like i hate when i order a hamburger and they give me a giant pickle on the side. [its disgusting. i hate pickles, and teh juice gets all mixed in with the fries. if i say no pickle it means no pickle.]
one place that i will not miss that much is sonic. they have AMAZING milkshakes, but i'll trade those in for 7-11 slurpees any day. sonic is one of those places that after i eat their burgers, by a half an hour later.. it is not a pretty sight. [i will spare everyone details of how/why sonic travels through my body at lightning fast speed.] their hamburgers have a weird quality. my thought, while eating a sonic burger, is usually "this hamburger tastes much too soggy and strange.. is that mayonaise? what is that?! WHY IS THAT?! OH NO NO NO."
but krystals... oh KRYSTALS. not only that, but there are NO TINY HAMBURGER PLACES IN VA. for the love of god. all im asking for is one tiny hamburger place. NO i will not get the fake tiny burgers at burger king. i want a place that only will serve tiny hamburgers, or chicken sandwiches or tiny hotdogs. and giant fries.
im also on a mission to tone up. i always say "oh im going to lose weight" to which people respond by saying "OMG NO." so i'll reword it. i am going to tone up. maybe hop on this Wii Fit training, or that other one with jenny mccarthy [i think?] whatever. if i have someone in front of me telling me what to do and how to do it and i can see how many calories i am burning, then i am good to go.
this was my random note about me.. next up will be a much more serious blog. [=
