February 2011's last day

Sorry about not getting that second blog out on Tuesday, I got busy going out and being happy with Karaoke, and some damn fine friends. ...then suddenly there was this midterm test... heh.


At any rate, February sure did go out with a bang, this year... or at least a slow leak, but I'll get to that part in a minute.


Monday was kind of crazy for me, but anyone who knows me can tell you that that's just the way I like things. I hate being bored, so when life actually throws me curve balls, while at the time I might be upset or miffed, I always have the thought of "At least something  happened."


I was in Brazoria for a Doctor's appointment I had Monday morning, which was cool, since I didn't have to be at work until 2. The appointment was at 11.15. I was silly enough to think that by showing up at the doctor's office twenty minutes early, somehow, I would get in on my actual appointment time.


Oh naive youth, eh?


Doctor decided to take a lunch or something, because by the time I got on the road to Houston, and work, it was about 12.45. It takes roughly an hour to get to my side of town from there, especially now, as I have to drive the actual speed limit... Getting caught for speeding sans license would really not make me have a happy.


So, I don't have time to be able to change for work or anything, so I go in wearing blue jean shorts, a tank top with a sleeveless vest on over it, rubber flip flops, and an apology. My manager just laughed and waved it off, and work was hilarious and great that night. I don't think I've ever had so much fun working as I do with Delana. She keeps things up, we have dance breaks at random, and she tends to think I'm the funniest thing in the world, so it's easy to make her laugh, which makes me laugh, which makes the customers think we're insane.




So, my first happy for monday, is my manager Delana, and her awesome purple outfit, that instantly made me grin when I saw her.

After work,  I was exhausted. I had driven a lot, not slept a lot, and worked for 8 hours in shoes that did my feet no favor, and I was very much looking forward to going home, taking a nice hot bath, and going to sleep to be up for school tuesday morning.

Life didn't like that plan, and thought I needed to experience the day a bit longer than I had wanted to, as when I walked out of work, I came to see that my tire was completely flat. 

Balls.

So, of course, I get in my car and text about 5 people to alternately complain and/or see who could come to my rescue. After a bit of that I thought "yanno what? This could be cool..." so I got out of the car, put on my Big Girl Panties, and opened my trunk to look for the spare and the jack. 

fast forward about half an hour and I'd changed that tire all on my onesie.

I was very excited. ...I was very tired.

Kevin eventually came, but I'd finished already, so we went to Kroger to get some groceries, and I eventually got home and got to take a shower because, JEEZ does changing a tire make you dirty, haha.

Some setbacks, and not, on the whole, what one would think of as a 'perfect' day, but there was definitely some happy, and a huge feeling of accomplishment at the end of that.

So yeah, February went out with a slow leak, dancing, big girl panties, and a shower.

And that's perfectly okay with me.

Take care kids, and find your happy (:
