Ah, my boyfriend knows me too well (above quote).
I *am* exhausted, but happy. I've been working my tail off (without Rob, Lisa and I are the only managers and that means only two people to to cover every hour Einstein's is open). Lisa by far takes the worst of it, but i still open Wed, Thurs, Friday (as in i have to be there at 5am), because Lisa has to take her kids to a camp-school thing those days. Then I close Sat, Sun, and Tues. Ah, my day off is coming soon <3. I love it though. the days I open, i'm usually out by 1, if not then i'm usually out by 3pm... And on the days i close, i got in anywhere between 7-9 and i'm done by 5pm. I <3 having *every* night off, no matter what.
Attempting to keep up with karate. I just want John to go over some moves with Marc and I so we're not embarassed in class.
Speaking of John, he's really growing on me lol. I never didn't like him (he's usually very polite if not friendly), but now i'm seeing more of his personality (i think he's girl-shy around girls he doesn't know well). Last night Marc and I went to see The Devil Wears Prada with John and Julianna and one of her friends (ugh, can't remember name. oops). It was a really funny feel-good type movie without being pathetic.
After the movie last night, the five of us went out to dinner at Fridays, and John's friend Josh met up with us (haha, and later hooked up with before mentioned nameless girl).
Marc and I are *hopefully* going up to Busch Gardens with Julianna and John next monday. We all have passes, and can get mondays off.. so here's hopin!
Tomorrow night it's the whole pile of people for a game at Marc's place. I love gaming with J&J (as John and Julianna will collectively be known as...), and Richard and Krissy are usually amusing during the game. And our new friend, Chris, has a character that's like sworn to be the enemy of my character (he's a chaotic neutral bard, and a paladin... ya know. But i can kick his ass so pft!). I love my character right now, hopefully this game lasts!
Fortunately all the drama with Richard lately has reminded me when it's best to stand my ground and when it's best to just smile and get over it. I'm glad i (for the most part) have all that organized again. There's a very thin line between letting yourself get pushed arouind and being unhappy, and being the bigger person without compromising who you are. I remember why i once felt sorry for people who are so intent on forcing everyone to respect them and having way too high of ideals when it comes to what respect means. Ya just can't be happy like that - because you'll never win. Lol, and that whole "give people a chance" and "don't make assumptions" thing... I'm not perfect, but i'm trying to remember that *says it over and over again when trying to befriend my evil bunny*
