Hmm...my weekend...good or bad...hard to say really. Friday I worked for a few hours, ran around town with Arno and Alexis, and did homework until Austin and his roommate Greg got here. We went out to Texas Roadhouse for dinner where we waited outside for an HOUR to get our table. re-frickin-diculous. But, my steak was delicious and hanging out with the 2 of them is always a blast, so it was worth it. We didnt get home til late, obviously, since they got in late to begin with so we popped in a movie before I crashed and had to practically sleep walk to my bed. Saturday I got up early out of excitement I couldnt contain, went and got breakfast for everyone, picked up Arno and headed up to arguably the best place in town; Kyle Field. (which, btw, I'm not a fan of that new yell...) It was hotter than Hades, I now have a 1/2 redneck goin on, a few blisters, and not nearly enough water...but I'd take that and more to have the chance to be at an aggie football game. it was AWESOME. I had been waiting for that for months. Reggie did amazingly (made me want to say "i want your babies" in the name of tradition, but I dont think my boyfriend would like that too much...) and we btho smu. what a season home opener! :)
After the game we walked a mile or 2 to the 500 degree truck and came back here where I quickly showered. We chilled around here for awhile, I think I took a nap somewhere in there, and then we went out to eat and went out for a little bit. But, seeing as Austin looks like a lobster now and my neck wasnt feelin too great either, we came back early and we all crashed probably before our heads even hit the pillows. Exhausting, but a very fun day.
I guess those 2 days were great, it is just today that hasnt been. The fault is on no one, except I guess myself but not like I could help it...i dont know. We went skeet shooting at my roommate's parents' house in Navasota which is LOTS of fun. We shot pistols for a few minutes and then moved on to shooting skeet. Addie's parents just bought her a shotgun so she wanted to play with it (not to say guns are toys) and seeing that Austin and Greg are in the Army and are both on their way to an over-sized gun collection, they're always willing to shoot. This was just my second time to ever shoot a gun, so I should probably lay off myself a little bit, but I did bad. I only 1. I was in a bad mood to begin with, had lots on my mind, and I didnt shoot as much as I just sat and watched, but I am a perfectionist and doing worse than last time is pathetic. (to me) So I was mad at that and had all those things on my mind, and then when we got home and were looking for Austin's cell phone cause they were about to leave I found it...in the dryer. His brand new, $200 cell phone...in the dryer. It now has a little wavy aspect on the screen saver and, unless you want to call someone at 222-222-2222, it does not dial any numbers. I felt so bad. I know people make mistakes, and he wasn't mad at all. He claimed it was his fault for not checking the pockets before I did the laundry for him. He had done 3 loads and I offered to do the last one which just so happened to contain all the jeans. It was clearly my fault...if I offered to do the laundry I should have checked. Either way you look at it, I'll beat myself up over it forever...and for that fact that I can't afford whatever it will cost to fix or replace it. The self-abuse is compounded by the fact that I was already hard on myself for shooting poorly, absence of medication, and the fact that I function poorly without medication. So, Austin tried to stay as long as possible to cheer me up, convince me he didnt care and took the blame, but ultimately he has to be up at 4 am tomorrow (to train for special forces which only reminds me he's leaving again soon) so he had to leave. And I needed him to leave. I have 2 homework assignments to do this week, 2 tests, and a plethora of other things that I need to get done tonight so I needed them to go, but I sure didnt want them to.
So, I guess the weekend was good overall...today just sucks. I hope I can get it all off my mind in time for Nina to come over to study for our econ test, cause once I go to bed tonight I wont have one free minute to look at it.
But...on to happier things before I close this. I get my ring in 4 days which means I get to see my mom and Alfredo for the first time since I came back up here (which was a month ago almost...my how time flies) and...well, I think thats about it. Dont get me wrong, life is going great. Today was just a little bump in what has been a pretty smooth road for a while, so I can't complain too much.
I better run. I need to grab a bite before Nina gets here and I need to clean this pigsty that I like to call a room. (and by pigsty I mean fold my clean sheets, clean the litter box, and...well, thats about it) Hope y'all had an awesome weekend, hope you got to see fightin texas aggie football in its shinig glory and, oh yeah, I ALMOST forgot, hope you got to see Vince Young throw the interception which put him over Reggie's number...from ALL OF LAST SEASON. Wait...did I read the battallion right last week? Cause from what I saw someone on our campus wants that instead. Maybe he should jump OFF the Vince Young bandwagon and give Texas' defense and offensive lines credit for picking up Young's slack. **thats the one and ONLY time you'll hear me say any part of that football team deserves credit for anything other than shoplifting and drug addictions** Gig 'em ags! :)
