What Should've Went In My Journal But I'm Too Tired To Write With A Pen

Today was quite an eventful day I should say.
To start off though, with last night... It was fun spending quality time with Kass. I can't remember the last time we did that and it be just so smooth, fun and natural. For some reason, I wasn't tired, which I was happy about considering I'm usually always tired from the day. And also considering that I had less sleep than I usual get too. We went to Walmart &bought crafty things. We made stuff out of oven baked clay, talk about a good night haha :)
This morning was a busy one as well. Woke up next to my freakin future roommate &best friend. It made me really want the apartment, more than I already want it. It'll come soon, we just need to stay optimistic.
I left her house and went to Walgreens for some, uh, lady supplies hahaha that sounded so old.
I realized I'm beginning to type/text/talk a little like my boyfriend. He's rubbing off on me.
Well once I got home, all I had time left to do was wrap a few gifts &then get ready for work.
I got to work right on time, 2 o clock. It was an alright shift, I guess it went by quickly. The first hour was my favorite of course, I wish I could work with Marlo more often.
He showed up on my break :) It was a nice break. I didn't hang out with him last night &I saw him for twenty mintues the night before. So it was nice to sit and talk with him for the ten minutes I'm given.
Well right after I left work, I went home. I talked to my dad, I think he wants me to pitch in and buy a new pool table. I'm gonna see how much money I have and go from there. I don't want to be completely broke.
I got my stuff for my holiday tins I made tonight with Jess &Amber, coworkers. We made them at Amber's house.
When I left to go, Marlo texts me &says hes down the street and wants to know if he can come by really quick before I go to Ambers.
So I turn around &go home. He comes &we talk for a good 15 mins<3 Then I head off to Amber's.
I get there like around 8:30, we started baking cookies, melting chocolate, sprinkling everything etc etc etc.
Three hours of cooking doesn't seem exhausting, but it was. I texted Marlo here and there, couldn't do much texting because I was busy stressing over the freakin cookies.
I hate cookies now.
No, I lied. But still, they sucked to make. Flour was everywhere &is still all over my clothes.
Well I left at 12:30am or so. Marlo told me to text him when I got home because he doesn't want me texting and driving.
I'm home now and I think he's asleep.
My brother traded in his honda civic for an eclipse. Marlo's gonna flip, thats his favorite car.
The tins are in the fridge, I'll give them out tomorrow.
Tomorrow I have a busy day again.
I want to wake up early and tidy up my room a bit.
Then finish up some christmas shopping. FINISH okay, so its not full procrastination that I'm guilty of here.
Wrap everything I bought.
I got to stop by Duy's house too, he says he needs to tell me something.
Then, I want to give out my holiday tins to the ones I made them for.
By the time I'm done with all this, it'll probably be like 4 o clock or so,
just enough time to get ready and head off to work at 5.
I'll work 5-10, hopefully we'll close sooner than we expect.
Then head home, &see from there.
I'll probably just spend family time or maybe sleep.
I'll be somewhat tired I'm sure.
If I wake up super early, then I'll take a nap in the afternoon.
Its funny I never ever took naps in high school. Maybe towards the end of the year-ish? I'd take a nap from like 3-5 then get up and do homework, eat with Kassie, or watch TV until about 8 o clock, which is when I'd normally go to the gym.
I wanna have a set time where I always go to the gym.
I'm gonna establish a set time...soon haha.
I really wish my sister was here. I wish my Uncle was in bakersfield too. Christmas just isn't the same w.out them and my grandma.
It's crazy how things can change. Five years ago, I remember how Christmas was. The christmas tree was filled with presents from my grandma, she spoiled us; my uncle spoiled us too at the time. He was still married then and his wife &her daughter were close to us too. My dad, mom, Faith, Josh and I weren't really effected by high school that much, so we spent most of the time w.the family. So christmas was just all around more family oriented.
Right now there isn't any presents under the tree. I've procrastinated on my christmas shopping... kinda. And my parents have procrastinated also, because they're doing it all tomorrow. Faith's in Iraq, but she sends her love. My Uncle is spending it with his fiance. Since the divorce, he hasn't had much money, so he hasn't had many opportunities to come down from Nevada to visit. It used to be a given that he'd be down for the holidays, but not so much anymore. My grandma passed away a little over four years ago, but I know she's watching over us.
It's crazy how life changes. I told myself I want to spend as much quality time with my dad as I can.
Today he said something that really stuck out to me.
He knows me and kass are trying to get an apartment together, we're just waiting for kass to find a better paying job.
He told us that he supports us and wants us to be out on our own.
Today he came into work and told me about how josh traded in his car for a new one.
He asked me if I wanted to trade the jeep in.
Of course I'd want to trade it in for a better, reliable car, but I want that apartment.
Josh has to make a 280 dollar car payment every month for his car.
I can't afford a car payment and an apartment, I'd be broke.
I choose the apartment which is why I won't trade any car in.
Besides, my dad put the malibu in the shop, so it should be good and running again.
I have to pitch in a couple hundred for it, but its what ever gets the job done.
I know I'm going on a rant but I don't mind.
Anyway, so before my dad left my work, he asked "so have you guys found kassie a job?"
and i said "no.. why?"
and he said "well you said you needed to keep money for the apartment so I thought maybe she found a job already"
and i said "oh no, i mean when we do find her a job"
and he said "or you can stick with a car payment and not leave me haha i'm just kidding sweetie"
He's never ever said that before. I think deep down he doesn't want me to move out, but he knows he's going to let go someday.
I think its just Josh is too selfish to want to spend time with dad.
And also too stupid to carry on a mature level of thinking for a mature conversation.
Me and my dad can talk about anything really.
And sometimes, I can tell he just wants to spend time with me.
So sometimes, I do drop all my plans just to sit and have a conversation with him.
Life's short and unpredictable.
I love my dad with all my heart, he's the best dad any girl can ask for.
And I mean that.

I think I'm tired now. I've been typing for a little over 30 minutes.
This is going to be a long blog.

This is what happens when your best friend is probably sleeping, your boyfriend IS sleeping, and so is your dad.
...well in my life at least :)

Goodnight<3
