Crazy, Beautiful Life

It has been so long since I've blogged that I barely remember how! (Not really...) So many things have happened since my last post.

  • Saw Kings of Leon
  • Went to Six Flags
  • Moved the boyfriend into his new apartment
  • Got a job (what what!)
So, I'll start with the concert... The music was awesome! They sounded great, just as good live as in the studio! However, I let other peoples' actions affect how I felt and it nearly ruined the concert for me. Explanation: Gil and I got to Lakewood early so that we could get some decent spots to sit on the lawn. We did, our friends showed up and everything was fine. Then the show started and these guys decided it was okay to pile in right in front of me. Being that I am only 5'3, this was really uncool. I couldn't see anything AND these guys were totally obnoxious. Then, as if that wasn't bad enough, some very, very intoxicated chick throws up directly behind us. Oh my gosh, it was awful. Had to move my things which included a blanket, jacket and my very large purse. Now we were trapped. Jerks in front of us and vomit behind us. Ugh... I tried to ignore it and enjoy the show, but I just couldn't. Then, a few days later I saw on Twitter that KOL cancelled the remainder of their tour. So, after hearing that I was glad that I at least GOT a show. I guess it took that for me to be thankful that I finally got to see one of my favorite current bands! Maybe next time I'll remember that!

We also were fortunate enough to go with my boyfriend's sister and her husband to Six Flags for half price! We had been wanting to go all summer but it never worked out... Then Autumn texted Gil and told him that we could get tickets for $25 since Josh, Autumn's husband, would be taking his youth group. This was the perfect way to get to go! And we would get to see Autumn and Josh before Gil started classes! We were so excited and woke up early to get to Atlanta. It seemed to be a beautiful day but later it rained which shut down some rides, but we waited under cover in line for bumper cars. I wasn't really looking forward to it but once we got to the front of the line, I decided that I would drive my own car. Great decision! I had so much fun and it made the rain and the LONG line not seem so bad! Overall Six Flags was fun and we were really glad that we got to go and also that we got to see A & J.

We actually moved Gil before we went to Six Flags I believe. It was a hot, hot, hot day in Athens, Ga. Oh my... It was tough going into an un-air conditioned apartment from a stifling parking lot... But we got it done! Gil is all moved in and we love his new place! While we were moving his things, I was thinking of the weekends I would spend there with him and the fun things we would do and even the days when we are lazy and just watch TV but are thankful because we are together. This made it much easier to accept that he would be going back so soon and I wouldn't see him nearly as often.

So! The biggest news of all! I got a new JOB! At the cutest place in Milledgeville! I am so thankful that a friend works there and helped me get the job because I love it! I don't dread going to work at all! Its a fun place and is fairly laid back so it's not stressful... Right now. I know it will be much different once business picks up but for now, its just right (since I am learning the ins-and-outs). This coming week is going to be tough because I'll be working 5 days straight but that is so I can be prepared for next Tuesday. Next Tuesday will be my first day on my own... Now that is a little stressful. But I know after this week I'll be ready. Just keep your fingers crossed and say a prayer for me! (I'll update you on how I'm doing at work as often as I can.)

Also, a few fun things... I got some new Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips yesterday! Applied them last night and they are SO cute! Black and white flowers! If you check out my Facebook, there is a picture in my Mobile Uploads album. Also, Gil and I went on a date last night that was much needed and lots of fun! We went to Cheddar's for dinner and the service was wonderful and food came out so quickly! Almost too quickly if that's even possible! Although it seemed the food barely had time to cook, it was delicious! Then we went to see Crazy, Stupid, Love and it was amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed it and Gil and I laughed nearly the entire time! It was absolutely the right pick!

There is a quick update of my life since my last post, sooooo long ago! I'll try to be better from now on! Don't give up on me!

Happy Blogging,
