It's been a hella long time since I updated this thing.

I'm in Vegas. It's going well but I know for sure it's not my place to live forever. I'll probably end up leaving next year if I find a job in Seattle. Seattle is where I want to live for sure.

Going to Tucson over labor day weekend. woohoo!

Going to VA for my sister's commitment ceremony next month. I'm flying there on the 27th of sept and leaving on Oct 1st. Josh I hope you'll be able to make it because we will probably be on the same flight from Chicago to Dulles. Maybe we can carpool if you do make it so Mom and Dad won't have to wait two hours for me.

Nothing super exciting is really happening. Just work work and work. I've gotten into working out again. Feels wonderful. I'm trying to lose at least 10 lbs by the end of next month. I think I can do it if I stay focused and motivated. Since I'm working out with a coworker...I think I can do it. We can do it cuz she also wants to lose weight.

Woo. Well that's about it. Short update. Hope everyone is well.

New stuff

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 04:59:32 GMT

I have twin nephews!! Weee! Sadly I won't see them until September or October. Adrik and Riley...no idea if those are spelled right...I also don't know how they were picked.

I have a clinical in Vegas that will hopefully end up being a job. I should have my own apartment and car by August. Yay for auto loans. For the next 5-6 weeks though...I will be staying with my friend Jenn and only having to pay for food, which means I can mostly save the $13 an hour I'll be making during the clinical. Sweeeet. I calculated that it would be about $2600 in 5 weeks not having had tax taken out. I'm excited. I should be getting a lovely $2 or so raise once I finish the clinical.

I've been looking at furniture online...and it is incredible how expensive it can be. I want to get new furniture so that when I end up buying a house in the next couple years hopefully, I will already have some furniture all ready to move in.

Back in Tucson right now...family is crazy as always. I'd be scared if they weren't. Both the folks are trying to get me to pack stuff that's at the house. I'm working on it...really. It's not a great amount of fun you know. Plus...if I pack it, it'll just be sitting in boxes until I have more room to move it into. AKA...when I get an apartment in two months.

The internet here absolutely sucks. It has been going on and off all day. Quite annoying. Thankfully I'm here for now less than a week. (Going to Vegas on the 25th)

Started writing a brand new story last night. It might end up being one of my longest stories actually. Maybe even one of my best. We'll see. It's about...oh...just kidding. I'm not going to give anything away. I think it'll be awhile til I start showing it to anybody. Secrets are good ya know?

I hope that I'm making the right decision in moving to Vegas. If I take the actual job there...I'll be there for several years. I'll be 6 hours away from home, close to one of my best friends, and about 4 hours away from Em. I've never been around Vegas much more than the airport or the greyhound station. I just worry sometimes that this is the right place to go. I only had one other place out of 12 that called me saying they had a job opening and that was in Vegas also. The places in Seattle didn't have spots and no one in Phoenix had spots. Doesn't matter...I don't like phoenix a whole lot anyway. We'll see in a week I guess. I start working on the 27th. I just hope everything goes well.

I haven't started missing Spokane yet. Maybe a little when I'm bored but really it's going alright. I don't have much to stress about here and no drama. Just a little family drama...as always. I miss a few people, thankful to be away from others, and hope that once I get settled some people will actually come and visit me. I'll go back up North in October when I have to take my board exam but it won't be for a very long time. I'll probably spend two days in Spokane and then go to Seattle for the weekend. Oh...My sister got her job at Microsoft. So I'll have lots of family to visit when I do go out to Seattle.

Until next time...

It's been some time since I've posted. A lot has been going on and has been crazy busy. Sometimes I feel like I don't have time for my own thoughts. But...sometimes that's a good thing because otherwise I might just drown in my thoughts.

I may not be taking the job in Phoenix. Several reasons. I will probably still do my clinical there for 5-6 weeks but I don't think the job will happen. Some reasons are:

Phoenix is fuckin hot and crazy city
Too many memories
I know only people I've worked with and a handful of other people
I have so many friends in Spokane and so much going on
Too close to my parents but not close enough to my friends (love you Anne)

I don't know...I think not going to Phoenix is just because I'm trying to runaway from one thing. I know what it is. The job would be fucking amazing. I loved working there last year but...I don't know if what I'm doing is right. Or if it is...it's all for the wrong reasons. Some of them anyway. My escape. I don't think I could stand living there and knowing...just...knowing and not being able to do anything.

So if I keep staying busy...keep my mind too busy to think then everything will be ok right and I'll be able to take the job? Because if that's what I should do....then that's what I've already been doing. Busy with school, two internships, having a real social life...I think I'm back to having a wall in front of me that people can't get through. I've always been good at that...It's worked for me. People know me but...do they really? It's been around a month since I've had a real emotional breakdown...I'm sure another is on it's way. It can wait. Just keep it in...

On a different note...I got my lip pierced just over two weeks ago. My parents will be thrilled. Plus...I'm getting a tattoo next month. It's the one I've wanted for over a month. It'll cost me a little over $100. Can't wait. It'll be my first tattoo.

Anne....I can't wait to see you. It's been WAY too long. We have soooooo much to talk about. Maybe you can set my mind straight...haha...not in that way. lol.

To end...for you if you ever see it...

I've Just Seen A Face Lyrics
Artist: The Beatles
Album: Help!

I've just seen a face,
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She's just the girl for me
And want all the world to see
We've met, mmm-mmm-mmm-m'mmm-mmm.

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware.
But as it is I'll dream of her
Tonight, di-di-di-di'n'di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I have never known
The like of this, I've been alone
And I have missed things
And kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite
Like this, di-di-di-di'n'di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Yeah!
Bup-a-lup-bup!

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I've just seen a face,
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She's just the girl for me
And want all the world to see
We've met, mmm-mmm-mmm-di-di-di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Oh, falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Mini update:

Going to cardiologist tomorrow to get an echo ultrasound. Um...yes. Mostly we think the problem is being caused by my Poland's syndrome. That basically makes my left smaller, including lung, and I may be hypertensioning my heart. Go look it up if ya want to know more on that. Um..but I'll let you know what I find out tomorrow.

Taking another final tomorrow before that appt. Almost done for the quarter. Finally. Gone really quick.

Going to VA for a week and a half starting Friday. Yippee!

Will be in Seattle the weekend of the 7th-9th I think. A meeting/forum for practioners/technicians. Should be very cool. My b-day in Seattle. w00t.

Let's see....I will be working in Tempe for my clinical for 5 weeks. Yay. Staying at Em's place once she gets a place. Could be good.

Got asked out by a really cute girl yesterday. hehe. We're supposed to be having coffee sometime this week between our finals. Someone my age, goes to my school, cute, met at unitarian church...so not online for once, um...ya. She seems really cool.

What else...my lip hurts because I AM AN IDIOT. Licked the ice cream scoop and my lip stuck to it. Ya. I'm smart.

I need to do laundry by Thursday so I can pack clean clothes. Clean clothes are good...even though clothes in general are overrated

Um...yes. I think this is enough for now. Tata

Update...boring title I know...shoot me

Sooo....those of you who love to waste time and like talking about random stuff and playing games....come join this site!! http://time-wasted.net/forum/profile.php?mode=register&ruid=42

I need to go to bed. I've been feelin really weird the last couple days. I thought I was going to pass out today. I didn't but...ya. I'm going to see a doc tomorrow morning and see what's going on.

Um..ya...I don't know what to write at the moment. Time to catch some zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's

Another year gone...another one arrived

Sun, 01 Jan 2006 21:28:17 GMT

Well, I was going to write an entry about what happened in the past months to sort of reflect but I think that would end up being a long ass post and I truly bore you. Truly...trust me.

I go back to Spokane tomorrow...finally. YEA! Time for me to get back to my own place and get away from the family for a bit. And then I won't be back in T-town until summer sometime. Not sure when yet. Depends on when and where I do my six week clinical. Meh. We'll see.

Um..well...I don't really know what to say right now. I know I haven't posted in a long time and no one knows what's going in my life...oh well. I'll post something more interesting later this week.

Happy New Year everyone.

Dear Santa

Tue, 06 Dec 2005 04:55:34 GMT

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

In September I punched mysternschnuppe in the arm (-10 points). In July I gave animalgal5 a kidney (1000 points). In March I helped butt3rf1y_hi1l see the light (8 points). In October I caught a purse-snatcher who stole jrtom's purse (30 points). Last Saturday I put gum in michoochoo's hair (-12 points).

Overall, I've been nice (1016 points). For Christmas I deserve a pony!

Sincerely,
zuchini_head2

But...I don't wanna a pony!!

Damn...

Mon, 05 Dec 2005 02:46:26 GMT

Single again. Sarah and I figured we'de work so much better as friends so we'll still hang out and such. Yup. So um...ya.

That's all I'm going to say about that.

I'm done with school by wednesday and getting into town Saturday night. I'll be in town for more than three weeks. I want to see you and you and you and YOU!!!

CHANGE OF PLANS!!!!

Sun, 20 Nov 2005 03:45:22 GMT

Going home for Thanksgiving!! TOTALLY LAST MINUTE. Getting there Tuesday...leaving Saturday. So if you want to see me....Call me!!!

Been awhile

Sun, 13 Nov 2005 07:39:02 GMT

Well....I'm up watching TV. I figured I'd update this thing.

I'm still dating Sarah but we're not in "a relationship"...yet. But I do like her a lot. We hang out almost everyday and talk and such.

Um...school is going well. I'm finally doing things that I didn't know how to do. Time is starting to move pretty quick. Finals are in a month and I already know what will be on it. Our instructor told us exactly what was going to be on there. Not so that we could pass but so that we would really learn how to do everything. It's an all hands on final...no written stuff. I'm really liking the program now. I don't know how good I will be at the orthotics section next year. We mostly bend metal and I don't think that's going to be my thing. Another thing is that in the real business...you don't actual have to bend metal that often. But I'll try it and see how it goes.

I went out and watched Chicken Little today at the mall by myself. It was pretty funny though I wish Sarah had been with me. Heh. I did buy a very cool poster and a keychain. I need to put up my posters. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow before Sarah comes over. Laundry should get done too. lol. Clean up in my room, study, a few other little chores.

I can't wait to go home. I miss my family a bit. Mostly my mom actually. I want to see all my lovely friends too. Miss you all!! I will be back in town on Dec. 10th. I want to go see Scrooge at school. Probably on the 11th because I don't remember what time I get home on the 10th. It'll probably be late because I know I leave sometime in the afternoon and then have a layover in Salty Lake City. It'll be good.

My bi-polar roommate has a month to move out. If Mary our landlord doesn't find another roommate then her mom's probably going to sell the house and then I'll have to find an apartment. I'd prefer a studio or a one bedroom this time. I want someplace on my own and someplace that allows cats. I want a pet. I miss have cats around and dogs. Sarah has cats and a dog at her parent's house. It's good to be around them. So I'm almost hoping that Mary doesn't find a roommate. I don't want to just move out and then have her have to ty and find two roommates. That wouldn't be fair to her. A friend of mine from class is looking for a different place to move to. She's 30 and Mary wants someone who's our own age. We'll see. Maybe Mary will let her move in if she doesn't find anyone else.

I'm going to try and get a job for next quarter. I need stuff to do on my three day weekends. I picked up a job application for Barnes and Noble today at the mall. That would be fun. I've got a couple other places I want to try for.

I bought boots and a trnchcoat yesterday at goodwill. Bwahaha. Well...a long women's coat that looks like a trenchcoat. Zach would be proud lol. I bought a couple scarves too. I still need to buy a hat and gloves though. Maybe I'll drop by Walmart tomorrow morning. I should stop by Safeway too and buy some more fruits and veggies.

Well...I should stop rambling. I'll update again before I leave for home again. Or maybe sooner.

Got this off a site. I'm sorry for all you Pres. Bush Lovers

Fri, 28 Oct 2005 18:17:21 GMT

"President Bush was visiting The school and he visited little TONY'S class. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asked the President if he would like to lead the discussion on the word "tragedy".

So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a "tragedy". One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy". " No," said Bush, "that would be an accident."

A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy." "I'm afraid not," explained the president. "That's what we would call a great loss."

The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Bush searched the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"

Finally at the back of the room little TONY raised his hand and said: "If Air Force One carrying you and all your team was struck by a friendly fire missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy."

"Fantastic!" exclaimed Bush. "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?" "Well," said little TONY, "It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be a great loss and it probably wouldn't be a fucking accident either". "

What a fucking stressful weekend

Tue, 25 Oct 2005 04:31:18 GMT

Just in case anyone wondered...it's SO damn great having a bi-polar roommate. Actually...it's not. She kind of lost it this weekend and I suppose that happens when she's not taking her meds. I won't be having this roommate for much longer. After what happened last night...I'm really glad. I can't handle this kind of stuff. There's a lot I can handle...this just isn't one of the things on my list I don't think.

so yes...i'm done. And I think I'm now going to see if one of these games I have works on my computer.

Th-th-that's all folks.

Tonight/Tomorrow

Sat, 15 Oct 2005 07:14:19 GMT

Fell asleep with Sarah. Slept...that's it. Very nice, relaxing, close. Miss it now. We were going to go to a movie but slept instead for a couple hours.

C...she doesn't have work tomorrow cuz she got suspended. Heh. Nothing big just ended up trying to go after a shoplifter and apparently that's not allowed. So if it's alright I invited her to hang out with us. I'm not sure what to do tomorrow. There's a farmers market downtown somewhere. I have the address on my desk. But not sure what to do the rest of the day.

I need to go back to bed. Tomorrow will be good.

What a week....

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 15:10:38 GMT

Ok this has been a really awesome week. I think I've seen Sarah everyday this week. Seeing her today too. We're going to the apple orchards. Should be fun.

I'm going to get a haircut today. Was going to do it tomorrow but I think I'll do it today instead before Sarah picks me up.

Oh...C....you can meet Sarah. That is if you don't mind making a trip to Safeway. lol. She's working and then going to Seattle afterwards.

Well I need to take a quick shower and then do some errands.

I feel....

Tue, 11 Oct 2005 14:28:40 GMT

Super. hee hee. Sarah came over to my place last night. We had dinner, watched a movie and started another...and that's all I'll say. I had a lot of fun. Can't wait to see her Thursday.

Damn...can't think of anything else to write. oh well. I'll be chipper all day!!

Hee Hee...yea!

Sat, 08 Oct 2005 14:31:39 GMT

I'm going to go to Safeway today, do my shopping and talk to Sarah a little. Wouldn't want to distract her from her work TOO much. We may be going to the Apple Orchards together on Thursday. She only has class in the morning that day and I don't have class at all because there's a board certification test in there for those students who've already done half the program or the whole thing. So I get a 4-day weekend next week. Sweet. We do have to make up the day in December but I'm hoping I may be done by then. We're allowed to get everything done early and then test out. Shoot..it would be great if I finished 2 weeks early or even just a week early. I've already got plane reservations to go back home for Christmas but those are for the official day after finals. So we'll see what happens.

Mmm. I should clean my room up a tad.

Ugh. I don't know if I should take those quizzes today or just wait until Monday. Hmm...damn there's a lot to memorize in anatomy. Wow. Maybe I'll just wait until Monday and get myself some more study time for the weekend. Yea..I'll do that.

Oh!! Watched the Family Guy movie last night. Oh my god it's so funny. Sarah said maybe we'd watch it together...hee hee.

Ok. I'll stop saying things that are mostly for myself and disappear. See ya!

Well I....

Fri, 07 Oct 2005 16:02:25 GMT

Had my date last night. We went over to the mall and she bought dinner and then to the movies, which I paid for. Into the Blue. It was an interesting movie. Not too bad. Heh. We commented to each other on stuff in the movie. It was fun. Um...didn't get a goodnight kiss but I got an IM from her saying "good morning sunshine". Hmm...made me feel better. I'll have to go see her at Safeway sometime this weekend. Hehe. She was asking which Safeway I'd go to and I told her she'd have to wait and see. I'll probably go to hers tomorrow.

Today I need to go to the library and the SSI office. I really don't want to but they don't answer their damn phones I need to get this stuff figured out so that I do more than just pay rent with the money they give me. So ya. That's today. Oh studying all day today for tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'm going to take like 5 different quizzes and tests tomorrow. A metrics quiz, an anatomy quiz, two O&P quizzes and if those last two go well I'm going to take the test for that entire section. Fun huh? What a day that'll be.

Hmm. Sarah is going turkey hunting today. mmhm. And she already invited me to her Thanksgiving party. That would be fun.

I had a call at 4 in the flipping morning from India or someplace. Nowhere in the states has a phone number that long. Damn. I was so pissed. I did get back to sleep though. Good thing.

Lots of...good news

Wed, 05 Oct 2005 03:46:06 GMT

I don't know what I said the last time I updated but here's what's happened in the past few days...hours...minutes...seconds...

One: I have a date on Thursday. w00t!!! Movie and dinner with...Sarah. Yes...I...for once am going on a date with someone local. Amazing no?

Two: I am apparently "the shit" for making all three of the computers in the house be online at the same time. Apparently there was an IP confliction and all I really did was call tech support and fixed it. But anyway...makes me feel useful.

Three: Class is going pretty well. I'm finally doing something instead of just reading pages of info about stuff I already know. Though I do have some other reading that I better get done on the stuff I don't know. Yes I admit it...I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING!

Four: I have a date on Thursday.

Five: Coeur d'Alene is gorgeous right now. I went there on Saturday with Evan, who by the way...is awesome. He's the one other newby in class who knows something about this field. I may have said that before. But anyway. He and I have hung out a lot. I get to house sit and take care of his ferret when he goes out of town later this month. Cute little ferret.

Six: My brother...apparently...has a girlfriend. Actually I think that's fine since I did meet the girl before I left for school.

Seven: I got an extra paycheck for some reason. I thought I'd gotten my last paycheck but then when I called the office just to say 'hey' they said I had another check. Fine with me. I could always use a little extra money.

Eight: I have a DATE!! We actually hung out for like 5 hours on Friday night with a couple of her friends. 9pm until 2am Saturday. It was fun. And..she works at Safeway. It's not the Safeway that's nearest to me but guess who's going to start going to a different Safeway? lol. Well, I will be if the date on Thursday goes well.

Nine: I worked out yesterday for the first time in 8-9 months. My upper body muscles hurt. Damn. Feels good though. I can still move...mostly.

Ok...is that enough of an update? Good. Because I am going to stop babbling. G'night.

Damn...money spent..

Sat, 24 Sep 2005 02:44:09 GMT

I spent nearly $300 dollars today on tools for my orthotics/prosthetics class. I went with this guy Evan, who was the only other person who'd had past experience in the field other than me. We spent the entire day going to different places to get tools. It was actually a lot of fun. I have lots of new toys now. Weeeee!

I took my first math quiz today. I got an 88% on it. Not too bad. I did the whole thing without a calculator so that's probably why I made a couple mistakes. Oh well. I need to get a regular calculator. They don't accept graphing calculators. Meh. I'm going to study some more math this weekend and take the next quiz sometime next week. I want to get all the math done and over with. I can just do it at my own pace and I'd rather get it done now so it's one less thing that I have to worry about. It's metrics so it's not too hard. I'll get harder classes later I'm sure like next quarter.

Uh...I think that's mostly it. Hmm. There's a couple of people I need to call this weekend. Z hasn't called me. Hmm. He said he'd called me and he hasn't called me yet. How sad. Anne!!! Call me sometime!!!

Anywho................I'm done. G'night

Thingy...yea...

Wed, 21 Sep 2005 18:54:58 GMT

beading:
I love doing it. I'm pretty talented in it when I have the time to sit down and think of a design and work on it.

body parts:
I love making them and yes I'm missing a couple here and there.

books:
I absolutely love reading. I don't know what I'd do without books. I like murder, mystery, romance, some sci-fi, historical fiction, fantasy...basically any kind. It just has to be a good read.

computers:
I like them. I'm not a computer genious like some people in my family. It certainly makes it easier to talk to people and do other things.

friends:
I've got a lot of great friends from T-town and I'm making new ones at college. It's easier than I thought it was going to be.

love:
I know what it is, I've had it before. I know what it feels like. Someday I'll have someone that I really love again.

movies:
I like watching movies with people. I'll watch mostly anything unless it's really stupid or really boring.

music:
I listen to it all the time. I like a whole variety of it. I don't like rap very much and I don't listen to classical music often. I know..I'm horrible.

walking:
I don't mind it as long it's not like 5 miles. Having one leg and all makes it a little harder. I've been walking a bunch since I've moved though. Good exercise.

women:
Hee hee. Love them. I can really relate to most of them.

I think it's funny how all of these are true interests of mine. When I saw the first one...woah...dude. lol. It knows me well.

Sooooooooooooooooo

Tue, 20 Sep 2005 18:59:41 GMT

I started school finally yesterday. I start bright and early at 7:30 am until 3:30pm everyday four days a week. Fun stuff. So far there's only one person who drives me up the wall and hopefully I will not flip out on her. She just bugs the shit out of me and some of the others. Everyone else is AWESOME. There's only one other guy who has had past experience with orthotics and prosthetics and so we've been talking a bunch and hanging out.

My house is super. I have everything in my room. I need to clean up a little but other than that it's great. I have the bedroom right next to the bathroom. Sweet. Come visit me peoples!!

Roommates are great also. Very fun. I've hung with Amy the most. Quite interesting. Reminds me a lot of someone. Mary reminds me of someone too but I can't place who. hmmm

Anyway...That's enough for now. I'll update more later once I get internet at the house. Toodles

Ok.

Thu, 08 Sep 2005 14:38:59 GMT

Unplugging the computer. All my stuff is getting shipped this afternoon. If you need me...Call me.

Gotta run.

Blegh

Tue, 06 Sep 2005 14:35:26 GMT

I hate being sick. I sound crappy and feel crappy and I'm still going to work. I need the last few hours before I blow this popscicle stand. AKA--Here where I live. A week and...2 days. Wow.

Um...my room is getting so much cleaner. I only have a few things here and there I need to put away or throw away. Fun stuff.

Anyway...That's about it.

G'night. Oh..it's morning...blegh
