A job... kinda

Well, Shannon from Target just called me and offered me a sales job. For 6.25/hour. I was hoping for something closer to 10, but oh, well. This will pay the bills. Thank God. Then maybe between Shaun and I we can get some put away for the wedding. Can't wait. I already know that I am going to hate the hours though - I'll never get to see Shaun and I won't be able to go home for a week like I was hoping. My mom will miss me and I miss her. And who knows, I probably won't even be able to go on vacation with Shaun's family like I was hoping to for the first time in oh, nearly 4 years. Probably not, if I am starting a new job and have to have the weekend of Jenny Mickey's wedding off. But she said she can guarantee me 40 hours per week and that's good because that was 'a lot of money.' Haha. But at least I'll get a discount at Target, that's all for the good. I love that store more than is probably good for me. So when I can start fitting into smaller clothes I can get some cute ones for cheaper. New wardrobes cost too much.

The weekend was fun, we went to see Pat McCurdy again with Cory and Luana Friday night. I only needed one ID this time though, unlike last time. But I had gone prepared with two in my new jeans. We met up with Cory at Kopp's, which is a custard place in Waukesha. When we went to leave as I was getting in the car my pants split open over pretty much my butt crack. And I had no intention of having everyone seeing my cute polka-dot undies. So we had to stop at Target and get some new jeans. They're a size smaller! YAY. Pat was good, funny of course. He 'paid to have sex' with Shaun, Cory and Luana. But Aaron and I were left out. That's ok, though. I remembered to bring my camera this time though so I will post pictures of the show later. (the camera's in Shaun's glovebox right now). Then we stayed the night at Cory's house and then the three of us came up to Plymouth to go boating.

It was o.k., but it wasn't sunny. That was a bummer. Cory's scared of the water but Shaun finally talked him into going with him and Travis tubing. Well, the sky was getting darker and darker. Just as Travis went in the clouds were flashing with lightning. Perfect place to be, on the lake tubing with lighting. But Shaun talked his dad into letting him and Cory go down and up the lake one more time. Well, the sky was getting darker and the lightning was getting closer... and touching earth now, too. You could see the bolts coming down. Emma was bawling her eyes out because she was so freaked out, and Travis was just staring at her. We were all telling her it'd be ok, but of course she was having none of that. "I WANT MY MOMMY!" Then I started getting nervous too because it was starting to rain and the lightning was getting bad. Then of course my bodily functions decided to come into play and I was in misery. We were watching idiot people putting the covers on their boats before they were getting them off of the lake. And taking FOREVER. Finally we get up to the dock and Shaun runs to go get the explorer. We all follow the boat up the ramp and now it is POURING. And loud and occasionally bright. Cory, Sarah and I go to her campsite to get her van, then we drive back to the parking lot. The boat goes by us, so then we turn around and pick Shaun up and get to his house. Just as we were stopping at the park exit it got as bright as I have ever seen it and there was an immediate CRAAACK! That was a SUPER close lighting bolt. It scared me really bad. But we got back to his house ok and we all took showers and everyone was all right. Then at 5:30 we left to go to Cory's house and then to La Funte for Mexican. Luana came over and the four of us went. I had the chimichanga (it was good, but not nearly as good as El Patio's) and we went through 3 baskets of chips, and Luana and I split a half pitcher of strawberry margarita for $11. We each got about three out of that thing. When normally one blended flavored margarita cost $5.50 a piece. So it was a deal. And I got buzzed. We then went to the Milwaukee Ale House. They were a microbrewery. I had two of the best amaretto sours EVER. Everyone else agreed that they were the best they ever had too. Shaun was tempted to get one but he didn't since he was driving, but Cory and Luana did. Then we left, and dropped off Cory and Luana. Shaun managed to stay awake for the drive back to his house (I would have driven, I felt waaay more awake than he did, but I didn't know my alcohol content). We slept for 6.5 hours and then got up to go to church.

We went to Redeemer Lutheran Church, and it was nice. The people there were really friendly, and we sang a song that I learned at Luther Park. It was nice. Then we went to have breakfast at a really good restaurant, and then we went home and I took a three hour nap in the afternoon after eating my leftover chimichanga. After cleaning the bathroom after I got up I felt horrid. I think the chimichanga got too warm the night before and I had a mild case of food poisoning or something. It was a chicken one. But I felt better enough at 8 to have a birthday blizzard. It is my last splurge before vacation if I get to go, and if I don't, then it'll be my last one before Jenny's wedding.

I hate how long my posts always are. But the only interesting things happen to me on the weekends so I have a lot to talk about! Hopefully they make for some interesting reading, at least. And pretty soon, I'll have nothing to talk about but WORK! Haha. :)
