I got my new tattoo, and I really like it. But since I haven't succumbed to societal norms, I don't have a digital camera with which to take a photo of it and then post it on here. I rely on my sister for that. Hopefully it will get done this weekend when I go home for birthday dinner. Don't get me wrong - I want a digital camera, but I'm so anal, I want a really expensive one, and refuse to buy a smaller cheaper one.
I love birthday dinner. My mom makes my favorite food, and favorite cake, and I get to spend time with the fam. Minus Kim of course, being the recluse she is. But that's okay. I'm kind of selfish about my family and my birthday, so I like it with just us. It's probably because when I was younger, I didn't get to have a birthday "party" with lots of friends. Mom and Dad would let me have one friend over and that was it. It also never helped that my birthday was in the summer. In fact, the one party I had (following my graduation from JMU) was a complete disaster. Remember that Cris? You gave me a pogo stick - which was the highlight of the entire event. It was actually a double birthday party held for me and Becca. I really think that I was just an afterthought - Thea and Kirsten had it in Kirsten's apartment. Maybe 2 weeks after K. cheated on me with T. Becca was probably the one who said they should have it for me too. MISERABLE. I only agreed to go because of Becca. Thank goodness Cris went with me, otherwise it would've been a complete horror story. But I digress.
I love birthday dinner with the fam.
The beach with Peyton and my sister was fun. However, I think I don't want kids of my own now. And I'm okay with that. I like hanging out with them, playing with kids, being a kid, and then letting them go home at the end of the day. I just don't want them full time. I don't want to be that responsible, or that patient. I am definitely NOT that patient.
I had my one year evaluation at work, and I'm no longer on my initial probationary period. YAY!! In fact, afterwards, my supervisor emailed me and told me she's glad I'm here. That made me feel all warm and fuzzy. And since I've been here, I've gotten flowers from a family, and one family sent a letter praising me to my supervisor. It boosts my ego a little (not that it needs it sometimes), but it makes me feel like I'm doing a worthwhile thing here, as opposed to what I was doing at CPS. And now that I'm starting to like a handful of people here, it's working in my favor.
Blogging is tedious. Maybe I should invest in a digital camera so I can just post pictures all the time instead of actually writing anything.
I've decided I'm a pretty anal/OCD person. I had to go to walmart today because I lost my last pen at work and I refuse to write with the crappy state issued ones. Did I mention that I have a whole box of my pens at home, and couldn't just wait until tomorrow to bring one to work?
Okay I'm done. Was that fast enough for you missy?
