word to thoughtful

I received a package from my mother today in the mail. In it she included my new health insurance card along with a giant bag of Now and Laters.

Two thoughts immediately popped into my head:

  • Thank God I didn’t mutilate myself yesterday.
  • And… Wow, I’m sure going to need a trip to the hospital for the heart attack this giant bag of candy is going to cause me. How convenient.

Oh Mom, you’re the best. For realz, love you Mom.

word to dreading it

I go back to college tomorrow.  Sigh.  There will be college kids everywhere.  I hate college kids.  I hate what I am.  But I’ll only be hating what I am for 3 years, so that’s not so bad I guess.  I am actually looking forward to going to classes this semester, which is the first time I can actually say that.

Oh, and I have the best dad ever.  Don’t get me wrong, I also have the best mom ever.  But my dad fixed EVERYTHING for me this weekend.  My headlight.  The dent in my driver’s side door that made a big creaking sound everytime I opened it.  My ring that I bent restocking chips at the restaurant.  Thanks, Dad!

Hey everybody.  I’m finally 19.  That’s it.  There’s really nothing exciting you can say about being 19.  Well, except that I’m probably in the best physical shape of my life thus far… but that really has nothing to do with me being 19.

I do however now have just a year before I turn 20.  And I still have a ton of things I want to accomplish before I’m 20, like:

  1. leave the country
  2. get contacts
  3. pick a damn major already!
  4. save a lot more money than I have right now
  5. regain my internet following (where are you guys… for real?)
  6. participate in the ACPT (I blame that on Wordplay)
  7. stop letting sudoku run my life

That’s a lot to do.  And I probably have to get pretty good at crossword puzzles before I make my way to Stamford, CT.  Maybe when I’m 21.  Because we all know crossword puzzles are much better with alcohol.

word to 13 inches

I had the unfortunate task this morning of going to get a new tire for my car because my driver’s side front tire was balding.  I’ve really been avoiding spending money pretty much all summer, so I was going to ask for a used one.

When I got there the guy went out to my car to check how big my tires were… 13 inches.  Then he informed me that the tire would be $65.  Then I politely asked if I could get a used tire instead of a new one.  He chuckled a little and said nobody drives on 13 inch tires anymore.

Of course they don’t.  *sigh*  The perks to driving an early 90′s Honda decrease by the day.  And now I’m out $75 (tire tax, labor).  Well happy birthday week to me.
