My feet smell and my nose runs.

Wednesday 7-6-11
My allergies are outright killing me. My eyeballs itch so bad I wish I could tear them out and soak them in anti-itch cream overnight. My nose drips and then when I blow it, nothing comes out. I wish I could mummify them via cotton balls. I have been taking sudafed, only to return to the box and find out it's sinus medicine. I finally rooted around in the cabinets for allergy medicine. It took a few hours, but I finally feel better. Just absolutely weak and exhausted. Probably mono flaring up. Yahoo.

I'm uber excited because no one covered the tuna fish salad last week when they put it in the fridge... so it smells. Yahoo! And I washed my sheets and "someone" put them in a basket instead of drying them or telling me that they were just laying in a basket and then I guess they recognized that they needed to be dried so they dried them. And they were soured. Yahoo!

I have a good weekend planned. I feel good. I'm going to have a good day today. I can feel it.
More thoughts later.

7-7-11 Thursday

Thursday- my favorite day. Happy Birthday Ringo Starr :)
I have been so blaaaaaaaah this week. Dad has graciously taken Mom to therapy both times this week- making me feel awful and lazy. Oh well. Next week will be different. Therapy has been going good for her. Her therapist, Jamie ran some numbers last week and she's doing better in most of the areas that Jamie set goals for her in. I'm very proud of her. One of the things that Mom is not able to do for many reasons, is drive. So when she told Jamie that, she set her up on a "simulator" on the wii. I asked her if it was a game and Dad said it was. I asked her if she was Princess Peach and my dad was like, Oh my goodness. How did you know that? It's a gift... Ha haha. Apparently Mom got to play Mario Kart on the wii- before I ever have. But I think she enjoyed it.- it was just a challenge for her mind. When Dad checks cows on our lot in Farmington, he usually lets her drive through the fields. And she LOVES it. Robert and I loved it when we were kiddos- basically that's how we learned to drive...
I think Mom's memory has really really really improved. Sometimes she loses her thought in a conversation and it's basically gone forever, but sometimes she absolutely remembers some hard things. For example, a couple of weeks ago, I had to run an errand and go pick up my tax return from our CPA in West Fork. I didn't even know our CPA was IN West Fork, but apparently that's where it is. I had no idea where in West Fork because I never ever ever ever go there. But Mom took me to it. Right and lefted me. Even when I had gone the wrong way. She told me where to go to end up on the right road. WOW right? Dad was so happy. Then the other day, when we were on our way to therapy, Mom said she wanted to ask me two things. I was like great. Here's 35 minutes of her rubbing her head and trying to remember and getting frustrated. I sighed and smiled and asked her, Shoot. She wanted to see a picture on FB of a friend that I graduated with, and his girlfriend. She likes staying up to date on a lot of the people that have been in and sometimes out of my life. Believe me, if you're reading this, she probably asks about you too :)
Also, there is this teeny tiny house on the east end of Bthl Blaktp for sale and I've been ogling it before I ever moved back home. I want my dad to buy it and i rent to own it from him when I finally get a job- maybe when I teach. Anywho, she wanted to stop by and see it. So we did both that morning before it got too hot.

Yesterday I went and applied for a receptionist position at the Toyota Dealership in the AutoPark. Then I went and talked to my friend Markette next door at the Acura dealership and talked to her and her slightly forward co worker, Jules. Jules begged and begged me for my number and kept hitting on me. It was awful. I told him he didn't want me, because I was mean and all that jazz and he was like, you can be mean to me whenever you want. I told him I was about to. He wanted to change himself to be what I wanted him to be. I told him I wanted him to be invisible. Told you I was mean. I ended up giving him Robert's number because I didn't have anyone else's memorized. He has yet to text "me", but I did give him a pretty good go to hell look when he tried to walk me to my car.
I had lunch with Ashtin yesterday which was awesome, and then since I finished the book Memoirs of a Geisha early that morning, I went to Blockbuster to rent the movie. They didn't have it, but the nice guy at the counter said that even though they didn't even carry it anymore, FPL (Fayetteville Public Library) should have it and it would be free. I gave him a big smile and graciously said thank you. What a nice guy!
So I trecked up to FPL.
Pause.
I love FPL, it makes me feel like a true Fayetevillian. I feel city like and important. I rented, Memoirs of a Geisha, Bridges of Madison County, Bullit, and Fiddler on the Roof. I've never seen any of these.
After reading Memoirs of a Geisha all week, I was freaking craving Chinese food (although the story is set in Japan) and I must have made half a box of economy sized Minute Rice this week. So after I watched it the first time last night, I made Chicken Fried Rice tonight to watch it again. Yummy.
Unpause. When I left and went down the elevator, there were 2 other people in there, two men and a woman and one of the men was one of those annoying single talkers that needs to comment on everything even though he's like gotta be over the age of 45. Do you know what I'm talking about? Well he asked me if the temper came with my red hair. I was like, I don't have red hair. He was like, well it looks red. I said prolly because I was standing under one of the lights of the elevator. It was that time that I got out of the elevator with one of the men. He just laughed and said wow. You just never know when it's gonna be one of those. Hahahahahahaa. So I said I guess it's just better to be polite than piss the crazies off.

Anywho, I think that will conclude my thoughts for today. I've been sleeping all freaking day. I have a big weekend this weekend and I'm watching The Big Bang Theory- one I haven't seen yet at that.
I'm honestly tired and after this episode, I'm going to watch Bridges of Madison County. I asked my mom if I would cry, and she said she would, but she cries at everything. I think I'm becoming more emotional though. I've been worried about the testosterone levels in my body lately in my inability to cry. But I cried at the end of  Sandlot on the Fourth of July.

Ok. More thoughts later.
Do you have any thoughts for me?
