The stores are getting even more crazy if that is even possible. It took my longer to get from work to the mall area then it normally takes me to get home home at night and I only live five to ten minutes past the mall. Not that I was going to the mall. I cannot say that last time that I was in the mall. But still, it was the area that I was going. I could not believe the number of cars on the road and the number of people who were just driving like complete morons. Since I was going to dinner with Gretchen tonight at 6, I decided that it probably wasn’t even worth it to try and go home only to have to make my way back to Olive Garden. Instead, I stopped at Ulta to pick up more chocolate hand creame and the couple of things that my mom needed. It was crowded in there but I really think it was more people like me hitting the sales for stuff that we like then for people really shopping for anyone else. After that, I stopped at Barnes and Nobles to see if I could get the Star Bucks gift card I need for tomorrow night but since the Star Bucks is in Barnes and Nobles, they only do Barnes and Nobles gift cards. That was fine; I just decided to kill some time and wander around the store to see if there was anything that I might like to read on my week off. Probably not the best idea since I had my laptop with me and as I wasn’t leaving it in the car, I was carrying that bag around with me. After the first five minutes or so, the thing gets really heavy and I really wish I had left it at home. But someone said they were bringing a DVD to work and asked if I could bring it in the play it. And then they forgot the DVD. I did find two books to see if I like them and plan on reading them next week along with playing some computer games.
I didn’t spend to much time in the book store since I really am trying to limit the number of books I buy right now. By that point it was 5:20 and I just decided to go sit at Olive Garden until Gretchen got there. I am glad that I left early since it took me over twenty minutes to GET ACROSS THE DAMNED STREET. It drove me nuts. If I was so inclined, I could have walked across the street faster then it took me to move two feet in the parking lot. I still got there early though and when I texted Gretchen, she said go in and put my name in so we could get a table. They were not busy at all and so I got a table right away. I think the waitress felt sorry for me because I had to wait twenty minutes for Gretchen to get through traffic because she kept coming over and asking if I was okay and just randomly talking to me. It was nice actually. Dinner was not bad and while I do not like chocolate cake, we split chocolate cake and it was good. LOL.
Tomorrow I have to run to Star Bucks and WaWa to get two gifts cards and I do believe that I need to get my eye brows done. At least I do if they aren’t too crazy. With it being Christmas Eve, they might be packed. So I guess that means I am getting up early and hoping to beat the crowds out at the stores. Once we get home, I can play World of Warcraft and try to get my character to level 10 or higher. It’s weird being so low again but I deleted all my old characters. Yes, I know, that was stupid and crazy of me. But we shall see how I do. It can be fun and exciting. I do know we have dinner at Mel’s parents house tomorrow night though I’m not sure what time we need to be there so Steve is going to call our dad tomorrow morning and find out. And with that, I am freezing and sleepy so I think I’m going to go curl up in my bed and sleep for a bit.

I cannot believe that September is almost over. Come Thursday, October will be here and only three months will remain until 2010. It seems like only yesterday, we were celebrating the beginning of 2009. Soon, the holiday season will be upon us and this year, I am hoping to celebrate in a fun and meaningful way. How, I am not too sure at this moment. But I will figure it out. To do this, beginning the first of October I will begin searching the Internet for fun holiday traditions, games, songs, stories, recipes, decorating ideas and just anything to do with the coming holidays. I am excited for what can be found. Here’s hoping I can find lots of good things.

Tonight I was catching lightening bugs and playing with sparklers in my front lawn. Yes I was by myself and yes, I am twenty-six years old. Do you honestly think I care? Do you think laughing and yelling stuff across the street bothered me? Please. I will walk around Wal-Mart singing and dancing without realizing it. I play with bouncy balls in craft stores. Do you really think it’s going to bother me when I’m having fun? I drive with all my windows down singing along to my iPod and I know I’m not the only one. Nathan Fillion’s talked about that in his MySpace blog – though truth be told, more people would probably give him more room then me. Of course, he’s got a pretty good voice. Don’t believe me? Check out Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along-Blog if you don’t believe me. Of even if you do, if you haven’t see these three fifteen minute webisodes, you really need to see it.
And I made it over one hundred and haven’t wished anyone a Happy Fourth of July. So Happy Fourth of July. 
In celebration news – Tony just won the Daytona Coke Zero 400 race. Tony Stewart that is. Woohoo. Love that.
And I regress. But it’s 11:19 at night and I’m exhausted…no, my mind is sluggish after having two iced vanilla lattes, and a half gallon of diet decaf iced tea. A bit too much as I’ve made myself sick. But I sleep very little in the summer unless I go up on a caffeine high and then crash down off of it. And it’s because of the shorter hours of darkness.
Ohh…Queen of the Damned is on HBOSE…don’t think anyone else is going to want to watch this but I have the remote. LOL. And I think it’s before the concert scene so I may just leave it on…may go watch it.

I sit here sometimes and wonder if I truly am insane. Why else would I decide to dedicate the next four years of my life to law school? I’ll be twenty-seven when I start in September; and by the time I graduate, I will either be thirty-one or thirty-two. Umm…hello? I think it’s safe to say that I do not want a life – ever. LOL
Of course, I am not complaining; not really anyways. I am really excited about the fact that I am getting to go to law school; something that I has been a dream since I was little. And by little, I mean I’ve probably wanted to go to law school for about twenty years now. And seeing how I’ll be twenty-seven in August, that means I’ve wanted to go to law school from the age of six. I just always thought that by this point, I’d be close to completing law school; not starting it.
Okay, enough about that. The fourth of July is just a few days away. And that means I get a three day week-end this year. Yay! I really do not have anything major planned. I do want to try and create my own layout for this blog; though that may be an adventure of more then one weekend. And work on some knitting since I have like ten different projects going on. But two of them are wash cloths for G and I started one row on a baby afghan on my afghan loom. Yes, I know one row isn’t a lot but there’s 80 pegs on the damn thing to wrap; and that takes awhile! Of course, I would be more then receptive to ideas on how to wrap the pegs faster. *insert begging here* Other then that, I do think I’m going to work on going through the junk I’ve got in my rooms. It’s time to get rid of most of it. Yes, I am going to stop being a pack rat.
And now, I want to go work on the scarf I am working on creating a pattern.
