"I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore
Before you take a swing
I wonder
What are we fighting for?
When I say out loud
I wanna get out of this
I wonder
Is there anything I'm going to miss?
I wonder how it's gonna be
When you don't know me
How's it gonna be
When you're sure I'm not there
How's it gonna be
When there is no one there to talk to, between you and me
Cause I don't care
How's it gonna be?
Where we used to laugh
There's a shouting match
Sharp as a thumbnail scratch
The silence I can't ignore
Like the hammocks by the doorway we spent time in
Swings empty
I don't see lightning like last fall
When it was always about to hit me
I wonder how's it gonna be
When it goes down
How's it gonna be
When your not around
How's it gonna be
When you found out there was nothing
Between you and me
Cause I don't care
How's it gonna be
How's it gonna be
When you don't know me anymore?
I wanna get myself back in again
The soft dive of oblivion
Wanna taste the salt of your skin
The soft dive of oblivion
Oblivion
How's it gonna be
When you don't know me anymore?
How's it going to be
How's it going to be?"

Buddy
It's 1:30 am in the morning... why am I up so late you ask? The answer is a combination that includes work starting at noon tomorrow and Mike not being home for the weekend. He went to Mammoth with some of his friends this weekend. I don't know if they are going to go boarding... but if they do, I have a feeling the snow will be kind of crappy. They had to go regardless because they had already booked the cabin. I know they will have fun anyway, with or without boarding!
It's actually kind of nice to have some time to myself at home... I feel like I'm never even home to begin with. All I do with my life right now is work, work and some more work. The benefit is that I actually have real money in my account. The disadvantage is that I'm freaking tired all the time and have hallucinations about when I will stop working. I call them hallucinations because I fear I won't stop until I actually make the move out to Kansas.
It always seems like with every new job I have, I always feel very timid, nervous and apprehensive about working at the new place. Then I start to get used to it, feel like I can be myself and start liking the new job. I suppose that's usually a good thing. In my case at the moment, it's not such a good thing because I need to quit one of my jobs very soon and now I'm having a hard time deciding which one. Because I like both places so much... I'm tempted to just stay at both... but I can't keep doing this 2 job thing. It's slowly killing me! I really like both places... both with very different people. There are different aspects about both jobs that I enjoy and also don't enjoy. More than likely though, I'll leave ACCIM.. solely for the reason that I haven't been there as long (even though they pay me more. WAY more).
I have some very sad news....
Buddy boy has osteosarcoma. =( I was so sad when I suddenly realized that this was not something that surgery could fix for Buddy. He's 9-years-old and doesn't do well under anesthesia. He's too top heavy and wouldn't make a good tripod anyway even if surgery were an option. I saw the x-rays the other day... it's affecting his right hind and it looks pretty damaged already. Someone noticed that he started limping last week... and bone cancer is what we found in the rads. Poor Buddy... he's such a good boy. Always just wanted to be petted and loved. He probably only has a good 3 months at best before it gets really bad and we'll have to put him down. Buddy is a sweetheart of a dog and I'm so sad to hear this bad news...
I <3 Buddy.

"...Working 9 to 5..." (everyday of the week and some days longer)
My legs are really achy today for some reason. I have been handling working 2 jobs pretty well so far I think. I have a lot of things to complain about, but I'm not really going to address them here today because I'm happy regardless. =) Many of the things I have to complain about relate to work... so I'm really going to be thrilled when I take a month off in July. So far I'm planning on going to San Diego with my sisters, Vegas trip with the girls, Vegas trip with Mike, Catalina trip with Mike, and other small camping trips... maybe to Barton Flats with Mike and Cory Pie.
Yesterday I saw 'Horton Hears a Who' with Emily, Rory and Kazuki. I don't like or hate Dr. Seuss. I guess I don't care for it because I didn't grow up with it. But the movie was actually very creative and funny! I enjoyed the movie immensely. I definitely recommend it! We also ate In N Out last night for dinner. Something I haven't had in a very long time so it was very well enjoyed by my tummy!
Our 10K run is coming up in May... it's not going to be pretty! Especially since I haven't really been training AT ALL..... just all these little things keep coming up... and with me working 6 to 7 days a week, I'm simply too tired.... I'm really just kind of winging it and I know Mike is disappointed, but can you really blame me? This is my general work schedule right now.
