New job, new entry

Okay - dunno who knows about this, but I'm now working at Home Depot. I'm a cashier in Outdoor Lawn & Garden (for the summer at least) and I've been here for about five weeks. It's a lot like working at Lowe's, just more paperwork, more responsibility, more people, more hours, more money! All in all, I like it but I miss my friends from Lowe's.

Actually, about 2-3 days ago, I drove myself to meet Charles and Mike (from Lowe's) at his apartment. We just hung out, watched Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, had some beer (ugh). Mike's sister and friends came over for about 30 minutes. Totally uneventful. And a lingering question - why was I ever attracted to Mike?? (He reminds me of my broher, David - for those of you know him, you know what I mean.)

I really want a cell phone. These lunch breaks are unbearably long (it only takes me 10, maybe 15 minutes to eat lunch) at 1 hour and I'd love to use this time to catch up with friends/family/fiancé. We were actually going to look into it a little while ago...but it didn't work out.

Almost done with taxes - FAFSA's are coming along (due June 30th at KSU). Gotta get in touch with Cobb County Board of Health for an MMR shot. Two months until insurance kicks in.

My mom and brother, Nathan (26), came down to visit last weekend. Unfortunately, I had to work most of the weekend and only had a few hours to spend with them (all we did was eat together, it seemed - at a Chinese Buffet, Wendy's, IHOP). We went hiking in a very monochromatic park, walked through Target, hung out at their hotel room for an hour, and not much else. Work takes up too much time. :(

Though, I had told them I'd be working all weekend (with the following Monday off) and they still came. But it sucks how far away they are. One day I just wanna take a bus up to Louisville (Nathan) or Kokom and see everyone - even if just for three days.

Unfortunately, when I finally have the money to get on up there, I'll be lacking time. College and a full-time job...talk about busy.

Only time will tell.
