| Worried sick. |
[Oct. 10th, 2008|12:12 pm] |
I'm looking forward to my mini vacation to my grandparent's tomorrow.
Seriously, today has been one of those days where i just wonder what went wrong.
At work i have been all over the place. We have lost 5 people in the nursery in the course of a month. That's alot of people when you concider we only have about 13 staff. So i've been thrown back in the nursery, after i do my share in preschool, and afterschool if needed (like today.)
The girl i traded places with (me going into preschool, her taking my place in the nursery) is pregnant and her water broke a few days ago while at work. She's only 28 weeks along. Apparently they're trying to stall her labor for as long as possible to give the baby time to grow more. But from the sounds of it there are major complications surrounding the situation that has both her and her baby's lives at risk, since someone loaded the bombshell on me today that she could die. So pretty much I've been stressing non stop worried sick about her and the baby.
Then i discovered tonight that i have a tender lump about the size of a grape on the side of my head, right behind my ear. It's noticably large to where Dave can even feel it, and i can see it if i pull my ear back. To me it feels like it's sitting right ontop of my bone, at the base of my scalp. So i did the worst possible thing and googled it. bad. bad. bad. When will i ever learn? So far i pretty much read that it could be a swollen lymph node (although not in the place that they say it should be) or cancer. haha, great.
Seriously, I've been worried sick over this. And it doesnt help that reading the words lymph nodes and cancer together triggers panic in my mind since my boss was diagnosed with hodgkin's lymphoma just a few months ago, although i know it probably has nothing to do with my bump. Still, i'm waking up early and going to see a doctor. A lump on the side of your scalp CANT be a good thing. and it HURTS. possibly my headaches that i've started having recently are related?
i need to get to bed. bah. |

| if you are a hanson fan, I urge you to read this... |
[Oct. 9th, 2008|08:33 pm] |
Oh my God. I haven't been paying attention to the internet except for twitter, but I had to just pause as I'm on the way back from the Walk to reflect and write because I am dying down here. I can't even talk about all the amazingness that has occurred. I am having the time of my life, you guys. It's ridiculous.
I can't even talk about all the amazing Disney World stuff without making this 78 years long, but Hanson, oh my God, how much I love them. I can't believe it sometimes, how much I feel it everyday. I can't believe that the Hanson journey is only beginning. My adventure at Walt's world is half over, but I still have almost a month of Hanson shows ahead of me once I get home.
The members event was SO INCREDIBLE. I can't even.... they were in the best moods I have ever seen them in. They took so much time to joke around on that stage and you could tell they were just in good spirits. They made the most ridiculous and horrible jokes, I literally can not stress how hard I was laughing. It was so intimate, like we were all just hanging out. There was so much silliness, but they also got serious and talked about the deep meaning of Lay Me Down, during which I thought Taylor was going to cry. When that ended, there were more ridiculous jokes and music, and a quick Q&A session. I will write all the details when I get home.
The m&g held an amazing moment for me when I thanked Taylor for playing me In A Little While, which I'm pretty positive he remembered. Again, more details later, but it was one of the best exchanges I've ever had with him, and believe me - that is saying something.
Today, after the walk, there was some confusion with trying to log everyone's mile. The people working for the guys moved one table over to an area that no one could get to, thinking it would help when it didn't. The fury that washed over Taylor's face was unsettling. I just wanted him to calm down. It was weird seeing him have an attitude that wasn't completely optimistic and positive. He was so upset, you wouldn't even believe. I always knew that all of this activism really meant a lot to him, but this just proved that fact even stronger. He was so mad that people couldn't get by to log their mile - there were SO MANY fans that couldn't get there, and still when the girls who moved the table apologized with fear in their eyes, he didn't blame. He told them it wasn't their fault and began to rush around frantically. Isaac did the same. Poor Isaac, who was sweating so much, half of his shirt was a different color. They were truly concerned and angered. I feel like a lot of people would have kind of said "whatever," but they were so focused on fixing this. I am not trying to dub them as some saviors who can do no wrong, I'm not that naive to think of them that way anymore. I am just trying to honestly convey the heroism I feel like they are displaying by doing what they have been working on the past two years. I asked them both what I could do to help, but they seemed pretty in control after talking to some of the Disney security. I reminded Taylor that what they are doing is amazing and that fans will wait in order to log their mile. It was just one of those moments where I was so ridiculously proud to be a Hanson fan that all the years of people mocking MMMBop by singing it loudly in my face kind of just vanished.
Well, I'm almost back to my resort. I'm heading to Epcot for more of the wondrous Food and Wine Festival and then going to the show.
Part of me is stunned all of this is even happening, and part of me thinks it seems just about right. All I know is, I'm having the best time ever. You wouldn't even believe the magic. |

| Audrina Makes Things Up For Attention |
[Oct. 9th, 2008|03:22 pm] |
Because I love you guys I try to post about The Hills as little as possible. That being said, I always enjoy an opportunity to point out how ridiculously fake the show and everyone on it is. The latest "hot" rumor is that Lauren Conrad supposedly slept with Audrina Patridge's on/off boyfriend Justin Bobby (I want to die for typing this sentence.) But it turns out, in a move worthy of Heidi & Spencer, Audrina is the one who started the rumor so she'd have her own storyline, according to Us Weekly:
A source close to The Hills says, "Audrina herself spread the rumors to get more attention. Audrina is the one who gets the least attention. She was so jealous, she concocted this on her own."

Just wanted to do a quick update before I go to sleep...for those of you not on anas, I got the job with Nationwide in Atlanta, they offered it to me on monday. THey want me to start Oct. 27th, so that means I have to move quickly. It makes me sad that I'll miss Halloween, I always came home and passed out candy with my mama and we celebrated her birthday and such. I was really excited but now I'm started to get the first day at school jitters like I did before I went to Ohio State freshman year. I've always had an irrational fear of having a grownup job and fucking up terribly.CHristina's down there and she's scouting out apartments that we've seen online and both liked. I'm also afraid I'm going to lack the ability to budget and get out of debt before the first of the year when my loans start and I have to start paying on them, and that I'll never really be secure and steady on my feet, I owe so much to my mom already and she's paying to ship my things down, she says not to worry about her that she knows I'll pay her back someday. Christina will probably cover first month's rent so I'll have to pay her back. Plus I'll more than likely have a $300 pet fee to pay for Beanie, and if I am able to come home for Thanksgiving and Christmas, I'll have to worry about a plane ticket and paying to fly Beanie home since I prob won't have the time to drive back leisurely. But I'm afraid I won't be able to take the day after thanksgiving off in order to make the trip home. Idk yet if I'll be able to use a vacation day yet or if I'll even have to work that friday for the matter, but I'm nervous that I won't be able to come home for Thanksgiving for the first time ever and it makes me sad. Christina will be staying in town and spending the holiday with her family, but since her dad's pretty much my boss I won't be invited to join. I know I'll be okay and it's normal to be nervous but I just feel so rushed and wish that I had gotten the job earlier or I could push back the due dates of my loans to have just a little more time to get my shit together. |

Well I wrote your name and burned it,
See the colour of the flame.
And it burned out the whole spectrum,
As if you were everything.
Mine just burned gold,
A normal flame.
I am not anything.
And all that I remember the feeling of waking up.
We were kids, you were the sun to which my eyes would not adjust.
We were kids, I was a fountain.
You could never drink enough.
Then came all the boys who swept you up play careless with your heart.
Every night there was a new girl sittting beside me in my car.
Something dies when you grow older,
But you do the best you can.
I am glad.
I am glad...
You found a good man. |
