Jacked up(TM)

A few things...

I'M ENGAGED! Yes, to Brandon! WHEEEEEEE!!!!!

I will have a detailed report of all of the trip soon, hopefully, with a few pictures. We took about 700 pictures and about 6 hours of video, all of which is PG (for me having a potty mouth), so don't cringe. ;)

But today is Jacked Up(TM), hence the title. I was driving to work this morning and I spot a very familiar purple truck on the side of the road, with most of it's front end smashed in. I see my brother's boyfriend standing there, talking to a cop, and I pull over to help. His arm was all bruised from when the air bag went off, but he's ok. It was both of their faults according to the cops (which I agree with) but the other driver tried to argue about it (which is stupid) and the cop just cut him off before he could even start. So I was an hour and fifteen minutes late to work, which was ok, I had called and told my supervisor at around seven thirty in the morning.

The other Jacked Up(TM) happening is that my boss just got fired. RANDOM. Despite leaving me here for 12 hours on certain days, and being slightly absent-minded, I can't imagine why they would have fired him. I think it had something to do with the IRS and tips or some such thing. We all made a pretty good team. He kept out of our hair for the most part, and he and my supervisor had a certain understanding. They told us in a very office space way (taking us into one of our conference rooms, and saying that _____ is not with the company anymore) and not telling us why, but that some guy is taking over on Monday, and that this other guy sitting in front of you will be taking over for the rest of today. It sucks, he was a silly boss, plus he was a total liberal tree-hugger and we could just talk and talk about politics. My supervisor was so pissed off that she went home for the day.

I will see her tomorrow because she is throwing a baby shower for my other co-worker who is going on maternity leave next week. I will be getting weekends off starting in a couple of weeks, but not soon enough for me to be able to go to the Utah Shakespeare festival. BOOOOO. My boyfriend and some friends are going to Utah for that next weekend, and that same weekend, my friends are renting a boat for two days and are going camping in Arizona. I'll just be at home, by myself, curled up in fetal position rocking back and forth sucking my thumb and holding my ear, in the corner. No, not really. I'll probably get all of my school work done early, than clean the entire house. Or I'll do nothing.

School starts on Monday! I got another scholarship for this year. $500 each semester. YAY! Since I'm only taking two classes this semester, the reimbursement check came yesterday for $250! That's EXTRA. Left over from my classes being paid off. I paid $147 dollars for my books, so that leaves me with a positive net $103! I need it. I took those two weeks off for my trip UNPAID.

Thought of the day: You never know when your time is up, so please enjoy. And don't be an asshole.
