Out of the Blue

I want to end on a good note, rather than a bad one, so I will begin with my sadness.
I had to get rid of my dogs a little over a year ago. I never really "got used" to it, but I moved on I guess. Last Christmas eve I had a little breakdown because two years prior to that is when Maxie joined our family. After that breakdown I was ok. I mean we had that incident trying to get Shylow back, which was difficult. (The lady who had him basically told us he has a better life now...(excuse my language) "Screw you bitch, he was happy with us you old hag") I had a friend who was very willing to go steal him for me....(that friend=another sore spot)....but we didn't get him back. I figured it's best, we live in an apartment now and I am going off to school. But for some reason, this evening, I started thinking about everything having to do with them. How stupid Maxie was, how lazy but incredibly intelligent Shylow was, how cute they were, how loving they were, cuddling up in bed every night with them, etc. And that last thought (before the etc.) really stuck out to me. I really freaking miss the cuddling up in bed with my puppies. I sometimes (not now but a couple months ago) would wake up in the morning and feel around under the covers hoping they would be there. So, basically, I am having a mini moment. To top it all off I have to put up with my brother. "Mom said I am going to get a Husky when we move." Knowing I have always wanted a husky. Not to mention he never liked having the dogs, now all of the sudden he desperately wants one. It ticks me off so badly. I (and I did this for five years before it worked) am about to ask for a puppy for Christmas, but I know it is no use. I am still at school and the fam is moving out of state.....sigh....One day I will get my own puppy and will never let it go (until...you know....).

But let us journey into the land of happy.

I have had a really great week!!
1) We Rasaboxed on Tuesday!
2) I had a really great talk with Allison on Tuesday (it honestly made me feel great and made my day).
3) My english teacher moved our paper due date to Monday, so I can sleep in tomorrow and then finish my paper. Instead of staying up all night tonight to finish.
4) She also told us our final exam (10% of our grade) is not only a take home exam, it is a typed paper on what we did this summer. No joke...
5) I had a bio test yesterday but I think I did ok.
6) I had my last lab today (that is kind of sad, I enjoyed that class).
7) My acting teacher basically told me I am the dream student.
8) I got a paper back in calculus today that said "This is so perfect it could be the key"...Stone would be proud!
9) My show got moved back, and I will be performing in a Theatre instead of a classroom.
10) I get to see lindsey's show!
11) Tom is coming home!
12) Kris will be home in a little less than a month!
13) Doubt is in less than a month!
14) Mamma Mia! on dvd in less than a month!!!!!!
15) Thanksgiving is next week...should be interesting....
16) I will technically be going to school out-of-state like I wanted to come next semester.
17) I can make the list go on and on...but I think you get it....

One annoying thing...My headphones stopped working...and I have to make a 2 hour trip this weekend in a car....I will spend most of it catching up with Lindsey's parents anyway...but that is my music we are talking about...I cannot imagine a world without music! Music is so amazing...i am sure Jess will have an extra pair...or I can run to Wal-greens...but still....

But I wanted to end on a good note....so....

I realized (during dinner, I freaked Amanda out) that while driving up to Vegas, we will be driving through (possibly) snow!!!! I miss the snow!!! Cannot wait to go with Linds, Kris, Allison, and Tom over break!!!!!!!!!

And now....for a mad lib....
If I were an animal, I would be ______ because_____________...

Bon Appetit!
