long time with no updates, but things haven't been that exciting.
This past weekend I went to South Dakota for training for my job next semester. Granite City is opening a brewery here and I'm going to be their Microbiologist, making sure nothing is contaminated and all that good stuff. It was the longest weekend of my life. I'm totally broke (seriously, I have 4 cents to my name right now) and I ran out of gas on the way up there. I stopped at this gas station hoping my credit card would work, but it didn't. I was almost stranded in the middle of nowhere at 1am if it wasn't for this young couple who were there. As I'm frantically trying to call my mom, I hear "Don't worry about it! Have a great trip!" This girl paid my $15 gas bill and left. Holy shit. I was in tears and thanked every higher power I could for that girl. I seriously hope she wins the freaking lottery or something. Talk about good karma, someone was watching out for me that night.
Anyway, I make it to the hotel at 2am, and had to get up at 5:30. I watched 2 brews and didn't get back to the hotel until 6. The guy brewing that day was super cool though, he was 29 and in the National Guard, so that wasn't bad. I was hoping that I would be paid for this trip, since I had to take off work, but no. I think I'm going to call the guy and see if I should have gotten paid. I totally think I should have.
Adam's parents were out of town this week, so I stayed there last night. Now we had a deal that we were going to be just friends because he's not ready for a relationship, but we keep crossing that line. Last night was no exception, as that line was crossed 4 times. Hmmm... I didn't get much sleep but it was fun! There's just something about him, I don't know what it is. He really understands me. He gets what I've been through, he has been there everytime I needed him. Hell, he even cheered me on when I had my head in the toilet all night. I understand that I may get completely screwed in this situation, but I know he does like me. I've told him that I love him when I've been wasted (which I do, as a person) and he said he loved me back. As naive as this sounds, I really think that he wants to be together when he's ready. I don't know, all I do know is that I can always be myself around him, and he's been there during some really rough times. And for that reason alone, I do love him.
Enough about that, have I mentioned that this week is going to suck ass?! I have 2 tests and 2 papers due by Friday. Yay. I'll be ready for some hardcore partying on Friday night!! Hoepfully I'll get paid by then... its not the 1800's anymore, so I don't think my 4 cents will buy much.
Oh yeah, and Winston has fleas.
