i can't think of a title

So not much going on since Saturday. I forgot to tell the story of trying to put red streaks in my hair. Since my hair is naturally black I have to bleach it before changing the color to anything besides black. I saw this bleaching kit and some red hair dye online so I purchased it and went to Jessica's house to make her dye it for me. She put the bleach on the spots I wanted red and wrapped them in foil. I was using the blow dryer to help it along (the instructions said to) when all the sudden it felt like my head was on fire and I could hear sizzling! I ran out to the kitchen and had Jessica rinse it out and my hair was orange. I decided this would be ok because we were going to put the red on it anyways. We put the red on and it turned out really red. Well after spending the weekend in the sun and in the pool it was more of an orange than a red and people at work were making fun of me so I had to dye it back to black last night. Next time I'm going to a professional. lol Our girls trip is just a few days away. Me, my sisters, my mom, my grandma, and my niece are all going to San Diego for the weekend. This is the first time we all have been able to go somewhere together. All of the other trips we've been on one of us wasn't able to go. Hopefully we will all be able to go this time (Sam's a maybe right now since she's been so sick). I can't wait to go...I need a little break. I got some stuff from Old Navy today and I can't wait for work to be over so I can go home and try them on. I got some more yoga pants because they are so comfy to work out in (or to lay around in depending on my mood) and then I got a black tank top...more of a dressy tank top not like a wife beater or anything and I got some jeans for $10 so I hope they fit. I figured if they didn't fit I was only out $10 so it wasn't a big deal. I have a serious shopping problem I know, but I can't help it. The last thing I need is new clothes, but at least I can give a bunch to charity and know some good has come from my shopping problem. Do you like how I justify things? lol I decided to drop one of my classes for the fall semester so I am only taking 3 now. I dropped literature because even though it will be easy it will be a lot of reading and I need the extra time to work on my math because I'm not so good at that. At least I get a little bit of money back and it's a little less for books too. Well that's it for now I guess...

saturday night...i'm so lame!

So what does a single 22 year old girl living in Las Vegas do on a Saturday night? Update her blog of course! I know...I'm probably the worst single girl in all of Las Vegas. I should be out looking for a hottie, but I'm at home being LAME. The problem is I don't have anyone to go out with. I don't really have any friends besides my sisters and they aren't really the going out type. One is at home trying to get over salmonella and the other is at home taking care of her kids...and of course there's one more who lives in Alamo so she's out of the question for sure. lol I sometimes hang out with some of the guys from work, but one of them won't hang out with me (every time I ask he says no) and the other one got a girlfriend so I haven't heard from him. I know I could go out alone, but that's not my style. I will do almost anything by myself, but I can't go out to a bar or wherever people my age hang out alone. I am pretty tired because I woke up at 5:45 this morning and I couldn't go back to sleep. I went to Jessica's house to swim with her family and my nephews who were in town to hang out for the day. We had a good time swimming and then my nephews talked me into taking them to a movie. We went and saw Kung Fu Panda...which was ok. It's not really my scene, but the kids liked it so it was worth it. When we were done with the movie we went back to Jessica's so the boys could swim some more and I came home to recover from the day. I am sad because there are movies from Netflix in my mailbox and I can't get them. My roommate has the key to get into the mail room...I have the key to the mailbox, but I can't get into the room that holds said box. Normally people will leave the gate open, but of course the one day I actually want to get my mail it's been shut. I don't know if I've mentioned this in previous blogs or not, but blogspot has a blog called postsecret and it's awesome. People mail in their secrets anonymously and they are posted on the blog. There are also 4 books full of people's post cards and I am absolutely fascinated by them. Some of the secrets are disturbing, but some of them are hilarious. I recommend everyone check it out. Also...if anyone knows any single hotties...send them my way! I'm totally fun...

i'm still tired

Well...I have some good news. Samantha was released from the hospital yesterday afternoon and she's going to be fine. She has about a million prescriptions, but she's doing well. She should be back to work on Monday (hopefully she'll have her strenght back by then), and hopefully she will be well enough to come with us on the girls trip. She was very excited to be able to sleep in her own bed and to see her dogs (her babies as she calls them). Nothing doing in my life...just the usual. There is this guy who works with me and I think he had a crush on me (I'm almost positive) and he would text me and try to get me to hang out with him all the time. He was always telling me how nice I looked and complimenting me and I didn't know what to do because I didn't feel that way about him. Early into all of this I told him that I didn't want to make things weird between us because I liked having him as a friend thinking that that would deter him, but it didn't. I tried not to hang out with him so that he wouldn't get the wrong idea, but one night I went to hang out with some friends and he was there. We ended up at Margarittaville and I was dancing and the next thing I know he's dancing with me, which was fine, but I didn't want him to get the wrong idea. After that I had to avoid hanging out with him again because he talked about the dancing for a long time. Monday he came into work and told me that he now has a girlfriend and I haven't received a text from him since! This is a good thing because I felt really bad trying to come up with excuses all the time because he's super nice. I just have to stay away from his girlfriend because his lady friends always hate me. His old girlfriend hated me and we'd never even met. She made him delete me from his myspace friend list because she didn't like me. And the night of the dancing incident there was a girl there hanging out with him (they weren't on a date, they were just hanging out) and apparently she didn't like me very much for dancing with him. I'm going to end up getting beat up if I'm not careful! LOL Well I just had to share that little story because I thought it was funny.

yawn...i'm tired!

So this weekend was an interesting one. Friday night as we were getting ready to leave work Samantha got really sick and started throwing up and stuff. She was feeling a little bit better about 2 hours later so we got in the car to go home, but she decided she couldn't make the trip across town and she wanted to go to my apartment. Once we got there she laid down in my bed and fell asleep. She still kept getting sick so we stayed the night at my apt. and on Saturday she wasn't feeling any better. She finally called her sis-in-law (who's a nurse) and asked if she thought she needed to go to the E.R. The nurse said yes and for us to go at 7 because she knew the people working the night shift so they could get her right in. We went to Centennial Hills Hospital and the emergency room was practically empty! It was really nice because Sam only had to wait about 15 minutes to get in from the time we walked in the door. They decided that she has Salmonella or Ecoli or something like that so they admitted her to the hospital for a couple of days and put her on antibiotics. She is still in there, but she's ok and she will hopefully be released soon. Other than that not a lot happened...that pretty much took up my whole weekend.

monday...

Well my weekend was pretty uneventful. I had to go to a wedding reception on Saturday night and it was pretty fun...except I couldn't understand any of it because it was all in Spanish! lol I was one of like 5 white people there, but it was still a good time. I got the cutest dress and shoes to wear to the reception. I had planned on wearing something I already had, but when I was walking through Target a dress caught my eye and I just had to buy it. It is blue and so cute. Then I realized that I didn't have any shoes to wear with a blue dress so I had to wander over to the shoe section and I found the cutest white eyelet peep toe sling back wedges. They went perfectly with the dress and they were surprisingly comfortable. I could still walk at the end of the evening. After the reception I was supposed to go hang out with a couple of the guys I work with, but they didn't call me until amost midnight so I had to stay home...I was falling asleep in front of the computer trying to stay awake. Yesterday I went to the tattoo shop to get my ear pierced...I wanted an industrial but when I got there the piercing girl told me I can't get one because of the shape of my ear. She explained to me that if I did it my ear would become kind of deformed (no thanks!) so I was really sad. I've been wanting one for a long time and when I finally get the guts to go down there I can't do it. :( After my diappointment at the tattoo shop I went over to my sister Jessica's house to hang out and have dinner. Usually her little girl Jaidyn would be very mean to me (she loves to give me a hard time), but yesterday she was very nice and lovey with me. We hung out and ate dinner (props to jess for making some awesome food!) and then I left. I didn't feel like going home yet so I stopped by the book store to wander around...I could wander in the book store for days! Finally I went home and just hung out. I got a text message from my sister Sam telling me that she thinks her dog is depressed so I tried to give a little advise to make her feel better, but really what do I know about dog psychology??? I'm probably staying at Sam's house all week because her husband is on night shift so she doesn't have to stay alone. Well I'd better get back to work...

wow

I know...it's been a really long time since I blogged. I forgot all about my blog...and then I didn't have anything to say either. I have moved and I am getting ready to move again soon. I think I'm moving in with a guy from work (strictly as roommates) if he gets a house. I am getting ready to start school again. I am taking 4 classes...Art Appreciation, Math 97 (I'm not so goodlike with the math), Literature, and the Psychology of Dreams. I will be in class m-w but only until 7:30 on my latest day so it should be ok. Two of my classes are online so that helps too. Not a lot going on in my life. I went out for the first time in a long time on Saturday night. I didn't even leave the house until 10:00pm and I didn't get home until the sun was coming up. I was really tired, but I had a good time. I went to margarittaville for the first time and it was pretty fun. I danced which I don't normally do and the dance floor was so sticky with spilled drinks that my shoes kept sticking to the floor and I couldn't get them off! I went with some guys that I work with and I was the DD so at least I didn't have a hangover. LOL I managed in my evening to piss off a big black lady and I didn't even have to try. She was hanging out with one of the guys I work with and apparently she got mad that he and I were dancing together. I didn't find this out until yesterday when guy told me, but it made me laugh. Other than that I don't have any stories...that I want to post on here anyways. Hopefully I will remember to keep doing this.
