A Bunch of Nothing
I don’t have much to report on. I had to skip going to the Renaissance faire this past Sunday with some friends because our beginning of the month bills ate away our paychecks. That was a bummer. I haven’t seen them in weeks and I could’ve used the time away from here, away from him and just enjoy myself. While I’ve made friendly with coworkers, I still don’t have any friends down here.
To be honest, I think I only developed one friendship at work that actually took to the streets back at my old store. It worries me that I won’t be successful with making that kind of friend here, too. It might be helpful if I actually went out around here. I’d like to find a bar or pub that I could adopt. There hasn’t been any effort to find one, actually.
I really do need to get out and do something other than work and home. My brother will be coming down for a long weekend in a couple of weeks which will force us to try and find something to do, I’m sure. I’m looking forward to something different from the lame routine I’ve got going on now.
Another thing I’m looking forward to is my dad coming home from Iraq. My mom will be taking time off from her job, they’ll be going to Vegas for a weekend and at some point, they’ll be coming down here and we’ll all go wine tasting. Soon after that, it’ll be time for 4th of July up in the Sierra Nevadas at my childhood summer retreat – Silver Lake Resort. It’ll be only the 2nd year we’ll be up there without Grandpa 
I sure do miss him.
I was feeling pretty tired earlier today after I was off from my short afternoon shift at work. I contemplated a nap, but if I knew if I went for one, I’d sleep for too long and end up staying up late – as if I’m not already! I wish I felt as tired as I did last night. I feel fast asleep once I put everything to sleep, turned my light off and put my head down on the pillow. I love those nights. There’s nothing like falling right to sleep! Let’s see if I can do that tonight. I need to wake up on time to get to work in the morning and work ’til 4pm – that is, if they don’t keep me longer. Today was a slow day, but we’ll see how tomorrow goes.
