Long Time No See.
It's been a while, I know. Not only have I completely given up on my New Year's resolution, but I've also remotely given up on my hobby. And, since I've looked into going to University and becoming a writer, I figure I'd better get everyone back up to speed on the past three months of my life.
Probably the most notable was that I got a new car. A 1985 Lincoln Town Car. Yes, a boat, but I loved it all the same. Yes, loved, as in past tense, but I'll explain later. This car is fully loaded, and although it has some minor cosmetic issues, it still runs fine, and was a helluva steal at $800. That thing drove me around in style.
Up until a few days ago, work continued to be the same old, same old. My girlfriend quit about a month ago, not because we had broke up or anything, but she had simply become sick of it. Understandable. About three days after she quit, my manager was transferred to Regina which, ironically, was one of the reasons she quit. Ouch. Well, that happens to be life for you, and there isn't a lot that can be done about it.
My family and I went up to Saskatoon over Easter, and it was nice to get away from work for a few days. We went to my Grandma's for Easter supper, maxxed out on food (Like usual), and then stayed an extra night this year. That was greatly appreciated, as it made the travel back much less daunting.
About two weeks ago now, I ended up in an accident with my car. While I was driving out of our school's parking lot, someone backed into me, creating $4500 worth of damage on my car, and a bunch of white paint on her car. My car's been written off, and about the only thing good that's come from that is that I'll be getting $500 more than I paid for the car. Not too bad, but it still makes me sad. I loved that car, and to have to give it up like that is the worst possible thing to do.
My oldest sister has finally moved out of the house, thank God. I swear, I don't know how, but she manages to push my buttons more than some of my most annoying customers. We still aren't fully rid of her, as she tends to constantly poke her nose in whenever she feels like it. It stresses everyone in my family out, but there's nothing anyone can say to her that would stop her.
That's about it for background. I really wanted to make this post just so I felt caught up and could write my next one, which I plan on doing, ooh, right about now.
