Valentine's Day. Christmas Time. Even Thanksgiving. <--all considered depressing holidays just because people with no family or anybody to love feel all down in the dumps. Well, I have news for ya, Halloween can be depressing too. I mean, just last year, I was trick-or-treating, having a blast...and this year, I passed out candy....and it just made me realize how much I miss being a little kid...not that I was ever much of one, I've always been so jaded, with such an old soul....*sigh* I guess it depresses me because I wish I could go back and actually BE a kid...

Today was a complete blow-off day at school....we did nothing but eat candy and get fat, like usual. No one was there, including most of my teachers, so that was a major plus...

I'm excited for tomorrow- it's Michael and my 1 year 4 month anniversary and I think we're going to the Freedom playoff game...and if we don't do that, I dunno what we'll do, but I haven't seen him in a few days so it'll be nice to have some "us" time...

Well I guess I'll write tomorrow or something like that.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Let's see, I'm home *again* today cuz just when I thought I was getting better, I puked everywhere...

Let's see here, I stayed home alone all last night and tried to get better....and took some pictures of Snoopy and Brooke...they're just too funny! I have a picture of Brooke in my dishwasher (she stands on the door when we're loading it cuz she wants to lick the dishes off haha)....it's so cute cuz in the background, Snoopy's giving her the dirtiest look....haha! After dinner, I came back into my room and Joe called me....we talked for like I dunno an hour almost...he's so funny...
JOE: I got a new phone *finally*
ME: Well, what happened to the old one?
Joe: *cue uncomfortable silence* I dropped it in the toilet!
It really makes me feel good to know that people in other states are as uncoordinated as I am! (Hehe, sorry Joe!)

Hmm....I stayed up til like 11:30-ish and just as I was getting ready for bed, Michael called, and we talked for like 40 minutes, which was very wonderful....he was being a weird-ass though hehe, cuz well, he's just like that when he's tired. *Smiles* Life is good....

Well, I guess I better go work on (bullshit my way through) my huge-ass lab report for Advanced Biology that's due tomorrow.....

Hmm, let's see...I stayed home from school today cuz I was really really sick this morning...I'm starting to feel better now though, thankfully....

Last night was pretty unproductive. I went to Cranberry to get some stuff for school and some make-up and what not, and then I went to dinner with mom...and when we walked into the restaurant, Michael was sitting there....apparently he was off yesterday...*smiles* So we spent the whole night together and that was fun.

Grr, I have so much mother-fing homework to do....I can't wait to get it done *rolls eyes*....

Well I guess I'm gonna go sleep some more....*blah*

Yes, an entire weekend has gone by and all I'm going to say is:

I had a wonderful weekend with Michael. We spent 95% of it together (the other 5% was sleep) and I *finally* have new pics of me and stuff...but I'll put them here (or somewhere online) later cuz I'm too damn lazy to right now. Went to church today, followed by play practice of the play I'm directing *what a mess that's going to be*....and spent all day with my baby.
GREAT WEEKEND

I'll write in more detail later, but as I said, I'm too lazy to right now, and I wanna go cuddle with Mike *heheheh*

--Amy Ruth--

Well I just got home from school like 1/2 an hour ago, and I realize that a lot more could happen tonight but I don't think I'll have much time to write so here's my day so far....

I went to school and all that happy shit, it sucked until after 7th period. Kate, Melissa, and I all met in the 2nd floor bathroom right by the history wing and decided that we weren't going to 8th period band. Sooooo we "stealthily" made our way to the parking lot where we thought we were in the clear and all got into Kate's Blazer....and Kate starts the engine and all and then all of a sudden is like "oh shit!" and shuts it off...Melissa and I are like "what the fuck?" but Kate was smart cuz she saw the security guard sitting there....anyhow, we decided just to go for it and we took a venture off to Evans City. Well, for those of you who are from around here, you KNOW Evans City is a hell hole that no one should be subjected to....and we got there....and of all things, went to a BAR! So we're sitting the parking lot of the bar, and Melissa's like, "Amy go whore yourself for beer..." and just as she said that, the skankiest looking blonde girl I have ever seen came waltzing out with a cigarette in her mouth...Yeah, she beat me to it. So we decided to leave and go further down the road...and ended up going down like 2382389023890 miles of back-roads....Kate's tooling down the road going like 90, and there's a stop sign....Me: "uhhh....." Melissa: "STOP! THERE'S A STOP SIGN!" Kate: *stomps on the brakes...* and all of us lurch forward, being choked by the seatbelts....lol....great times, great times. And in all of my high school career, that's the 2nd time I've ever skipped. It was well-worth it. Lol....

Last night was great, I went to the mall with Michael, but before that, he gave me flowers Then after I gimped my way thru the mall (I have a broken toe now), he "remembered" that he wanted to get something at Pac Sun, which was wayyy the hell down the mall, so he walked me to his truck and I sat and waited cuz well, my foot really freakin' hurt. Soo as it turns out, he just wanted to get me something, and I ended up with a really warm Aeropostale pink hooded fleece and a furry white hat which made me VERY happy! *Smiles* Thanks so much sweetie!

Well, I think that's about it, I guess I'm gonna go!

--Amy--

Okay I don't have much time to write, but I'm back online with cable modem *finally* soooo yeah I'm doing good and I have a broken foot and life is grand and Michael and I are gonna go out now, so I'll write later!

--Amy--

You represent... hope. You're quite a daydreamer and can be a hopeless romantic. You enjoy being creative and don't mind being alone at times. You have goals, and know what you want in life... even if they are a little far fetched.

Surprisingly enough, I think that actually describes me, although "hope" is the last feeling I would think to represent...hmm, just goes to show ya don't know everything about yourself, huh? Lol...

Goin' out for a fun day, I'll write later about what happens...have a good one!

--Amy--

It occurred to me that in all my writing, I really haven't said much about how I feel about myself and such, so here is a little something that will help you get to know me better:

Don't judge me. I’m just not like you. I'm a person with strong opinions that I’m not afraid to share. I have a relatively high GPA, but I’m definitely obsessed with school. I listen to rock and rap... but it doesn’t affect my dress or opinions. I do what feels right and good to me so I can never regret what I’ve done in the future. I have the strangest ticklish spots (my ears and nose for example). I adore art and music. They are my passion. I have my own car, we have 3 in my family, but I drive a Chevy Blazer. Someday, I want to own a Dodge Viper and a Chevy Impala. Passion is my drive in life. I’m willing to try anything once, as long as I feel strongly about it. Give me something artistic and I thrive. “Live for the moment” is my motto. I’m not big on plans and schedules, spontaneousness is a part of who I am. I wear clothes that I feel comfortable in or that make me feel good about who I am at the time. I’m not willing to dress exactly like everyone else, because I find clones to be so unattractive. I have a unique taste in music. I listen to what fits my mood at the time. I thrive on meaningful lyrics. I think bands that write their own words and have meaning to the words they right are absolutely the best. Romance is my weakness. Buy me a rose and hold a door for me, and I will truly melt away. I live in the moment and only the moment. I allow my dreams to take me away to places I’ve never been before. I have big plans for the future. I like the sky just before sunset (and during sunset too…). The colors melt together and fade away, just as I believe one’s life does, and I find that comforting. I believe in God, heaven, hell, angels, devils, and all that accompany these things. I would not say I am a very religious person, but I believe in them because I can feel their presence in my everyday life. I do fear things, many things, although I may never admit what my fears are out loud. I reserve my feelings for myself and very few others. Don’t take my silence as arrogance, perhaps I just have nothing to say. I am not one to be praised or to be the center of attention. My inward first impression only hides my true outward self when you actually know me. I am more mature than most people my age. I harbor an jaded soul and a wise spirit. I long to live far from here and I dream of the places I could reside in. I dream of living in Belgium, California, Paris, Rome, and Australia. I’m a conservative republican. I am not the most political person, but if I had to choose a side of the political spectrum, that is what I would choose. I understand my country and enjoy the freedom it provides me with. I can’t tell you I’m beautiful because ‘Beauty is in the eye of the beholder’. I’m pretty obsessed with how I look only because that’s what people take you for; your appearance. I am not as confident about who I am because I believe that confidence leads to narcissistic ways. I cannot accept rejection easily, yet I can accept dislike. To be rejected is different than being disliked. When you are rejected you were never given a chance, when you are disliked, it only means that somewhere along the line, you screwed up. I have a memory like a steel trap. I can tell you about things that occurred many years ago. Incidents come back to me as home videos, dialogues and pictures included. My dreams are like paperback novels, exciting and detailed. They have plots and characters. On the whole, they are vivid and organized, and most likely have some deeper meanings. I bury myself in music for pleasure, because it relates to how I feel, and I like that. I listen to what makes me comforted and sometimes what doesn’t. I can listen to a song once and never forget it. Patience is my downfall. I try to be patient but it seems the more I try, the less patient I really am. I have a wonderful boyfriend named Michael that inspires my life. I am inspired by a mixture of my own dreams and our dreams together. We plan to be married someday. He is my hero because he is the strongest person I’ve ever known, inside and out. I want a family some day, with at most, 2 children. I want them to have unique names so they always have something about them that not many other people have. I want them to grow up and be their own person, as my husband and I will teach them. I have found the person that is right for me. I want a huge house, in the heart of a suburban area. I’m not a city girl at the moment (because I’m in a town), but I’m definitely one at heart. I have the blessing of true friends. They make my life colorful and they definitely brighten my world. Common sense and logic are the two things that I have none of.

And there you go, little about me, hopefully now you might possibly be able to relate to me a little better.

--Amy--

*The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire...* Oh wait, no, that's not the roof, that's the mother f-in' stove! Yeah, that's right, fire at Amy's house, part 2!

So I'm sitting in my room, ya know, trying to get rid of my migraine (that I STILL have, by the way) and my aunt is in the kitchen baking something. (Well first off, you gotta understand that my aunt bakes all the time, like at random times, whenever the fuck she feels like it. Strange, I know. But this is also the aunt I can't stand.) Anyhow, she's baking and I'm pissin' around on the computer and getting ready to watch ER as usual on a Thursday night and all of a sudden I can smell this overwhelming smoke. I didn't think much of it because well, sometimes with stoves, they just kinda scorch things and a little sizzling smoke comes out occasionally, but oh no, not this time. The next thing I hear is all 4 of our smoke alarms go off, almost simultaneously...(by this time, out of sheer curiousity, I wander into the kitchen...) Much to my dismay, I know what's coming because the entire stove is on fire. *And when I say the entire stove, I mean the entire thing is engulfed in flames.* Soo, I run into my room where 2 of my dogs (Snoopy and Brooke) are quivering and shaking cuz they're scared of the smoke alarms, and this time, all I have to do is find shoes. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that's right, this time I was wearing pants! So I'm scrambling around, putting on shoes, grabbing random and various animals and my cell phone (which was used yet AGAIN to call the fire department) and we all head outside. When we get out there, I notice that we only have 2 dogs, which means we're down by one. Apparently Lady got so scared that she hid under my aunt's bed upstairs and refused to come out, so I thought for sure she was going to die of smoke inhalation. And yes, it was THAT bad in the house...but by some miracle, she took it upon herself to come downstairs and outside with us. So this time, I got up the balls to go and mingle with the fire guys and needless to say, I knew a bunch of them personally, lol, like Brian Dambaugh (who later repromanded me for interrupting his sr.project, but hey that's what happens when you procrastinate)...and after an hour of sitting/standing around outside, we were allowed back in my house. We no longer have a stove cuz it's out on our front lawn, STILL smoking and really hot, and everything I own wreaks like smoke, but once again everyone's okay....and tomorrow I get to go to school smelling like the barbeque from hell, but hey, on the brighter side, at least it wasn't 2 am this time...and I was most definitely wearing pants.

--Amy--

Last night was wonderful! I *finally* got to see Michael and we had a great time...after I went to physical therapy (for my shoulder), we went to dinner at the Olive Garden. When we were done there, we went to Barnes and Noble to get me a book for senior project. Michael needed to go to Best Buy after that and since they're right next to each other, we just walked over. Well, on our way, I looked into the parking lot and noticed 2 rather plump business men leaning on his new truck and I was like "Uhh, honey, there's some strange men leaning on your truck...."  He looked over and saw them too and was like "Haha, watch THIS!"  So he reached into his pocket and grabs his keys...well he has one of those "panic buttons" on his lock/unlock remote...and he hit the panic button and the thing starts honking and flashing! Haha, the skinnier of the 2 fat men screams "Oh Jesus! Don't lean on the truck!" *While thrashing his arms in the air and jumping* LOL. It was the freakin' funniest thing ever though cuz Mike hit that button so discretely, we just kept walking and he shut the alarm off after we were inside Best Buy. Hehe, and people say they'll never need the panic button....

Hmm, I feel romantic and poetic all at once...so here's something to satisfy my feelings...

Question Not

Question not my love for thee, but hold it true,
and see nothing less in my eyes than adoration.
For if indeed, this affectionate thread, this harmonious union is able to be doubted,
what hope is left then for lovers anywhere?
We sit, and gaze long moments as human words fail,
in silent expression of our souls
who yearn to soar toward the stars and moon,
and float toward the earth and collapse once more,
entwined within a gentle embrace.
Question not the vows which I whisper to your name,
but store them within your innermost chambers,
and hold them bound as you hold me,
moved beyond all sense of space and time.
Drink me in with but a look, a breath
that plays warm against my skin,
then gladly, no vile onslaught shall wring me from your side.
Question not my love for thee, but hold it true,
and till death I shall always be for you,
your one true love.

Hmmm.....I'm so in love....

*Blah* So I feel like complete and total shit today...and yes, I stayed home again but that's all right I honestly don't care at all. I spent a whole lot of time in bed today cuddled up with my puppy, Brooke and yea I would have spent a lot more time sleeping but ohh I'm a dumbass. *Dumbass Story of the Day*: Yeah so I made some soup for lunch and brought it back to bed with me and I brought a cup of milk cuz that helps my head stop hurting sometimes and so I'm eating my soup and drinking my milk and I decide to take my empty soup bowl back to the kitchen before I end up making a mess with it...yeah and on my way out the door of my room, I somehow drop my freakin' glass of milk and it slpatters all over my floor, my walls, and of course, ME. So yeah, that was fun cleaning up...I have used like 1/2 a bottle of febreeze and most of a container of resolve carpet cleaner and it still wreaks like dairy products in here...*bleh*

Mmmm, I'm happy with my hair, I didn't like the idea of getting it cut yesterday but it looks kinda like a rock-star type thing with the pink tips and all, I dunno...it's cute, and I normally would NEVER say that about myself so yeah you gotta know that I'm happy with it, lol!

Well I gotta go, mom's bitchin at me (as usual)....

--Amy--

I love my pink hair, but it hates my life. Lol, yeah when I first dyed it on Saturday morning at like 2 in the morning (the last time I wrote), it seemed to be coming out in excessive amounts, but sometimes hair does that when you first dye it, so I wasn't really THAT worried. Well, as the weekend progressed, it got a little worse each day and then today it was like breaking off in clumps so yeah I had to get my hair cut but thankfully it only needed trimmed AND I still have pink in it, so I guess everything worked out for the best. Moral of the story, NO MORE HAIR DYEING FOR A WHILE.

Hmm this weekendw as good, as I said the last time I wrote, I went to the mall with Scott on Friday night and then Michael spent the night on Friday and Saturday we (Me and Michael) went to Ross Park Mall and hung out there...hehe we're so strange *cute too* in the fac tthat we went to Build-A-Bear and he made me a bear with a pink nose and pink belly button annd I made him one with a blue nose and blue belly button..hehe I dunno I think it's cute at least...haha...but yeah we had a good day Saturday. Sunday was fun cuz I went to church and I enjoy that but all the little kidds were like staring at me and stuff since my hair is pink hehe I love corrupting America's Youth...

Today I didn't go to school cuz of my migraines again but that's okay whatever I've learned to not even really care anymore because well, I'm always going to have a headache, they've proven that, I'll have up days and down days and I guess eventually my body will adjust to it. I just hope it happens sooner than later because once I hit college or even worse yet, the "real world" with a career and such, I won't have the option of missing days whenever it's excessively bad. *Sigh*

Well I gotta go, it's my feeding time

--Amy--

Today was the first of many senior skip days, however, unlike a normal senior, I went to school. (Over 300 of our 533 class didn't show up) But anyhow, I went to school and it was kinda fun actually cuz I spent a lot of time outside in Mr. Harsh's class and watching Amy Vinarsky get the crap beat outta her by the teacher and stuff, well, that's always a plus in my book, LOL.

After school, I came straight home and got ready to go to the mall in Robinson with Scottie, and I went to pick him up. Got to his house around 3:40 and we made it to the mall by 4:15. (So I sped a little on I-79...)  We spent like an hour in Hot Topic, where he got some neat boots and such and I got a happy bunny shirt, some pink and black bracelets, and *MORE* pink hair dye...hehe I love having pink hair, it's wonderful! You can trick people with it, lol, one time at Giant Eagle I had a Japanese guy convinced that I was like a flamingo and because I ate a lot of pink stuff, I had naturally pink hair...haha it's great. Anyhow, after Hot Topic, we went to Claire's and I got some really nifty pink earrings (in case you can't tell, pink is my favorite color EVER...) and then we went to the food court to grab some quick McDonald's....which turned out to be not-so-quick beacuse we sat down and ate and talked for like 45 minutes, but that's okay, it was a nice conversation. Before we left, we went to Spencer's to dick around, but really I think the Spencer's in the Beaver Valley Mall is better than that one...oh well, after that we left cuz I have a really hard time seeing after dark while driving. On our way back to Scott's house, we stopped at Giant Eagle to rent a movie (for me and Michael to watch tonight) and we ran into Rob, who ironically spoke to Scott and not me. Oh well, his loss, DEFINITELY not mine. We then left Giant Eagle and then I dropped Scott off and came home.

When I got home, like 10 minutes after I walked through the door, Michael called me cuz he was done with work and we went to meet his parents and George & Vera at the Eat 'n Park in Wexford and he ate and I didn't (cuz I'm fat so I am gonna be anorexic from now on....) so after that we went back to his house and watched his mom play with this hilarious paper jumping bean...I thought I was gonna piss myself, but yeah, anyhow (yeah I know, the randomness of it all...) Michael got his stuff together and then we headed over here which is where we are now, at my place cuz we're having another sleep~over.... 

Well, I think I'm gonna go, although I can't do anything for another 22 minutes because I'm waiting for the dye to set in my hair...then I will be pink again.

--Amy--

No school for us Seneca Valley Kidds today! That made me happy, especially since I didn't get up until 10:30...boy did I need that sleep. Tomorrow's Senior Skip Day number 1 of the year, but me, like the loser I am, am going to school because well, my mom's making me, but even if she didn't, I think I'd go just to see Shannon.

Today was lots of fun cuz I got to go up to Slippery Rock University and spend the day with Michael...we had a lovely lunch (where I saw my friend Derrick from college this summer) and then came back to my house and cuddled for about an hour and then he went to work...and I went to sleep *again*....damn I sleep alot lol...When I woke up, my mom took me to a huge sale and we bought a lot of clothes...hehe I got some really cute things and I got Mike something too but he hasn't seen it yet and chances are that he'll read this before he sees the thing I got him so yeah I'll have to save what it is for later...

*Yawns* Man-oh-man am I tired (and I REALLY shouldn't be) but ya know how it is, I'm a sleepy creature and sleeping is what I do best! Well, since I have my homework done and nothing better to do before ER comes on in an hour, I'm going to work on some scholarship shit for college...(oh rapture) *rolls eyes* lol...

Well today was a better day, it wouldn't have taken much though, I could have been hurled out in front of a speeding bus, lived through that, been shoved over a cliff, hit jagged rocks on the ground, still have lived thorugh that and be eaten alive by starving coyotes one piece of flesh at a time, and my day would have been better than yesterday...(random happy thought of the day)...*sarcasm*

But yeah, I went to school (oo a record, 2 days in a row...well actually my record is 3 days in a row but yeah)...and nothing really went wrong there, it was an overly long and unproductive day, but you'll find that's mostly the case when dealing with Seneca Valley. When I got off the bus, Michael was waiting for me and he took me home in his new truck (that I still hate) and we hung out for like 1/2 an hour and then he had to go to work...but I hope to see him again tonight...doubt I will but I hope so at least...then I spent 3 hours working on that damn annotated bibliography for senior project...that I doubt I'll ever use for the paper or whatever, but at least I am almost 100% sure I'm gonna get an A on it because I only need 5 sources but I have 17 so yeah I'm good to go. I have a huge economics report to do and like 02890243094308132818 pages of math to do but I really really don't care right now so yeah I'm not gonna do it. I'll save it for Wednesday and Thursday cuz I have no school on Thursday.

I'm in a freakishly cynical mood right now but I think it's because I'm in an artsy mood. I'm always cynical when I'm artsy and I'm not sure why but I like it...oh wait that also means I'm always being artsy cuz I'm always cynical...heheheheh!

Well anyhow, speaking of ART, I'm gonna go draw on my walls some more, so yeah, later y'all!

*Blah* Today was absolutely horrendous! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING went right. I woke up late to start out with~ (it's always a wonderful thing to have to scramble around in the morning like a chicken with no head), and then I couldn't fall asleep on the bus because the damn kids in the back were being sooo loud. Geez, at 7 am, you wouldn't really expect a pack of lazy teenagers to be THAT wound up..... Anyhow, I got to school, and things were looking up, first period we had a substitute cuz Mr. Allen just didn't feel like coming or something like that...and then 2nd period was study hall. 3rd period was biology (always and forever boring), but Mr. Harsh didn't feel well so we didn't do much in there either. 4th period Algebra was a waste too cuz Mr. Semega wasn't there (I think it was teacher skip day) so I headed off to Jazz Band 5th period. Seriously, aside from it being the most boring day ever, school wasn't that bad. So blah blah, school gets over and I go home and fall asleep for 3 hours until 5:30, which still isn't THAT bad of a day. Well I get up at 5:30 to go pick up my aunt from work and everything and I get half way there and my car loses the power steering feature and the "service engine soon" light comes on. (In case you can't tell, this is where my day gets BAD.) Well, thank God Michael and I always work on cars and stuff and he actually taught me a lot about them because I pulled over and temporarily fixed the damn thing....but then I picked up my aunt and went home. I had to go to Cranberry to return a movie to Giant Eagle and pick up a few things at Wal~Mart, so I was just gonna take Mom's car. Well Mom was taking Snoopy and Brooke to the vet so that was out. So here I go, treking out to Cranberry in my half dead Blazer. Now don't get me wrong, I love my truck *his name is Korwyn*, but seriously, I just get so pissed at machines sometimes! Annyhow, I make it to Giant Eagle and it dies in the parking lot. Lucky for me, once again I knew what was wrong and bought some coolant and fixed it, but since I had to wait for it to cool down a bit, I went for a little walk with Brenton and Rob. I don't know what I did to Rob or whatever or why he's being such an asshole but he basically told me to fuck off and stay out of his life forever, and although we weren't like BEST friends or anything, it still hurts when that happens with anyone...so yeah not only am I stuck out there at this point, but I'm stuck there with a guy I thought was a good friend of mine...and now he's being a major cock-squeeze. So much for that friendship. Oh well, told ya he was acting weird the other day.... By the time I got home, it was almost 8 o'clock and I still had homework and shit to get done and on top of that my mom and I got in to a huge fight about why I was gone so long...she didn't believe me about the truck but whatever, no longer give a flying shit. I ended up coming into my room and crying my eyes out for like an hour and a half....over my bad day, over my car, over my mom, over Rob...and then Michael hasn't called yet on top of everything else (and it's after 10), so most likely, I don't get to see him either. Whatever, the day has less than 2 hours and it's over. Let's just hope it's better tomorrow....

Well enough bitching about my bad day. Other than that, I suppose everything's all right...although that really doesn't leave much to be all right... Whatever. My head is throbbing and I think I'm gonna go so I can figure out how to systematically chew my own head off....goodnite.

--Amy--

Today's been a pretty boring day all in all. I accomplished quite a bit though so I suppose that's all right. Let's see...I woke up this morning and went to church, which is always a good time I guess, and then went to brunch at Kountry Kitchen as usual on a Sunday morning...then I went to True Value Hardware and got oil for my truck and came home and did the oil thing...after that, I took Brooke out to the pet stores (we went to Petco and Pet Supplies Plus) and came home...the two of us took a walk around town when we got home, 'n when we got back from that, I cleaned Kameron's bowl (he's my Betta fish)... and then I went grocery shopping at Shop 'N Save....so yeah I got quite a bit done. Oo Oo I also got pictures of me, Brooke, Lady, & Snoopy that I'm hoping to have up on my website soon so yeah, when that's done and ready, I'll have to let y'all know bout that! lol...

hmm...Rob and I have been talking on and off all weekend online and on the phone and such and he's acting awful strangely. I think there's something seriously wrong but he won't tell me what it is...he said he spent all day yesterday fighting with his family and that he was having some major 'problems' but he won't even begin to tell me what they are...I'm kinda worried about him but I guess I can't really do anything until he's willing to open up to me. Oh well, that happens I suppose.

I'm hoping to see Michael tonight...after such a wonderful day yesterday, I can't wait to see him again today. He's working right now but he said he'd call me right after he was done...I can't wait to see him....*squeals* I love him soooooo much!

Nothing else is really new, my life is back to it's old boring self...although the last time I said it was boring, my house almost caught on fire so let's see what happens this time...haha...

--Amy--

I love you Michael Daniel!

Last night around midnight, Michael came to pick me up and we went to eat at King's as usual...then went back to his house to empty out his van cuz he got a new truck...and then we came back here and had one of our infamous sleep-overs....oh it was so much fun! We finally went to sleep around 3:30 am and then got up at 9 to go look at his truck...then went to do the breakfast thing...after that, we went to Rochester to drop off some clothes at goodwill and then went to get gas in my truck...$1.45 a gallon, baby....cheapest I've found it in MONTHS. When that was done with, we headed over to Monaca to the Wal~Mart for shampoo and pain killers...haha yeah it seems like we've been married for like 30 years...and I LOVE it! He got his truck around 4 ish and during the test drive his dad took it on once they got it home...the serpentine belt broke and they had to take it back to the dealer to get fixed already...that's what you get for buying a piece of shit FORD...haha I HATE Fords. Annnyhow, after all that we went to dinner with his parents and then back to his house for a few games of pool and such....and lastly we ended up here to watch Billy Madison...it was wonderful

So that is what happened from midnight Friday to midnight Saturday...

I'll write again later...

Well let's see here....what's new in my life? Oh yeah the fact that I'm not in school due to my house almost catching on fire last night! Here goes the story:

It was 2:00 am (this morning), and I had JUST settled down after an hour long phone call with Michael and I was JUST drifting off to sleep when I hear this *beep beep beep* over and over and over again....I'm like..."damn that stupid fire alarm must be running low on batteries again" cuz that's what ours does, at least, when the batteries are low on energy. Anyhow, I get up to go into the hallway and what to I see/smell? Yeah, that's right, it's smoke...with the nasty stench of burning plastic and wires...(at this point, I'm still 1/2 asleep so I'm trying to figure out what the fuck is going on)...and then it hits me, my house is potentially on fire and I'm wearing NO pants! So I pick up my puppy, Brooke and I high-tail it to my room where I scramble for pants, a hoodie, my favorite blanket, and my cell phone....and then I go out into the hall way and.....I just stand there. Like a fucking idiot, I'm just standing around with Brooke and waiting for everyone else to show up. Well, ya know how on all those little kids' shows where they're like "your family should have a fire plan, blah blah blah"? Haha, we used to sit there and kinda poke fun at those things and were like "Our house is NEVER gonna catch on fire~ and if it does, we'll know what to do..." WRONG ANSWER. The 4 of us (and 3 dogs) are all standing on the back porch now, arguing over whether we should call the fire department or not...I'm the one with the cell phone in my hand and I'm like "I'm not calling, someone else do it!" (Yeah some hero I am) But yeah my mom ended up calling the fire station and all these people came and it was like -3247923478991320132908 degrees out, and I'm just wearing my pjs and a hoodie (thank God I found pants)....so I climbed into mom's car and fell asleep with the dogs and an hour later everything was okay. Apparently our house wasn't on fire and they thought it was our furnace, but the furnace guy just left like 20 minutes ago and he said it wasn't that, so who knows?! *sigh* In any event, I didnt' get really ANY sleep so that's why I stayed home today, cuz other than that I'm feeling absolutely wonderful...lol....oh well whatever, if I fail, I fail, right?

Yeah not much else is happening in my life right now, but at least that spiced things up a bit for an hour or two...lol

I LOVE YOU MICHAEL!

Wow does my life suck. I’m so sick of being at home and yet I don’t seem to be getting any better…and there’s really nothing a doctor can do for me. The school keeps calling my house and like I dunno exactly what they want but it’s getting annoying and my doctor still has to send my medical excuse to the school so the school doesn’t even have it yet, which is probably why they’re calling like non stop. Oh well, what can ya do?

Last night was nice though, I felt somewhat better and it was Michael and my anniversary (1 year 3 months) so he took me for a nice dinner at the Olive Garden. We both had penne alfredo and wedding soup and breadsticks…mmm it was good. I think my favorite part of the meal though was the mints they give you at the end. I’m like addicted to those things. Haha, I dunno they’re just good. After we went to dinner, we had to go to his house to talk to his dad about him getting a new truck (yay for Michael), and I burned the Ill Nino cd…they’re my new favorite band I decided. (Incubus will forever be my favorite but they’re not making new cds so it’s hard to keep them alone at the number one spot)…And then we came back here and cuddled for a while. It was a wonderful day- although my head hurt a ton.

It’s so freakin’ cold outside. I mean, I realize that it’s officially fall and that it’s the second day of October, but really it IS only the second day. Last night we had snow flurries and the frost hasn’t even started yet! What is with that?! I love cold weather though, I really shouldn’t be complaining, it’s just that I’m gonna run out of cute sweaters to wear for the first time before November! (And YES, that IS a crisis!)

I was supposed to go to Giant Eagle tonight but because I stayed home, I don’t think I’m going anywhere. I need to pick up my last paycheck, so it’s even a ligitimate reason for going. I’m slowly starting to not live there anymore, which I guess is a good thing, although I haven’t heard from any of my friends from there in a few days now and I’m starting to wonder if they’ve forgotten about me or something. At least ONE of them could text message me or email me or something….but oh well, I guess I’m not as important to them as they are to me. That’s all right, I understand….I guess….well, maybe not….

Today’s quote of the day is “Always smile. It makes people wonder what you’re up to.”

Well kidds, I think that’s about all for now, I’ll write again tomorrow sometime!
