Inch by Inch Lifes a Sinch, Yard by Yard it's very Hard

Onward we must go. Trudging through another school year, coming up on yet another new year. Oh how time flies! Everyday is starting to feel the same. Wake up, study, go to school, do some home work, and then go to work. Everyday. BORING! At least I have Halloween to look forward to. And since we are hosting a kick ass costume party, it should be pretty fun, i hope. It better be anyway, because it took us 4 days to clean the house. Now that's a never ending story itself. Cleaning. There is always something to clean. You would think with the hubby being laid off he would make sure the house stays in order, but no. Does not happen. That's why he loves me so much. I'm a multitasker at everything. Not to toot my own horn, believe me i never do that, but I kept everything fairly straight around the house. It gives me something to do when I'm sick of school and watching TV. I have also been thinking about writing poems again. I used to when i went through them depressing teenage years in high school, but i stopped when i graduated high school. I guess i though i was better then that. Plus i suffered from depression and it seemed to ease the pain a little i guess. I miss writing down emotions and feelings. But enough about sad talk. Hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween and eats tons of candy! Bye Bye!!

Its the end of the world as we know it!!

No don't worry. Its not the end of the world yet. I just wanted to have an excited title so you would want to read my blog. Unfortionantly I don't have much to talk about this week. Weather is still crappy, and everyone around me is still sick. I cant believe all the school were letting people out because of swine flu. I wonder when people are going to realize that swine flu is not that big of a deal. Yes it sucks getting sick but all swine flu is, is the FLU! Everyone has had the Flu before. Just because it has a stupid name, doesn't mean you will die. Get over it! Any way, I have kept busy with tons of homework and work, plus in Derby we started committees and are changing things up a little bit differently because we are getting more people to join.
We also just found out that we wont be getting any money back for the accident till late November. Even though its not our fault and we didn't ask to get hit, we still have to suffer without an extra vehicle for two more months. Its going to be winter by then and my car handles very poorly in winter, when it actually starts up. Leave it to Mike and I to get F'd over. No matter what it is, where we are or who we're with, we always get the shitty end of it! Pardon my choice of words, that's just how angry I am at our system. I'm going to leave it at that because I really don't want to get into it to much other wise I will get even more upset, so I'm going to go to work tonight, come home, eat some egg rolls, and have myself a nice tall glass of Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss. PEACE!

Just another Week

Well boys and girls, I don't have anything special to write about this week. I'm still waiting to hear how much money Mike is getting back for the accident because sharing a car between two people kind of sucks. Speaking of sucks, this weather is really getting to my nerves! I hate winter. Fall is alright, but its already starting to freeze out. Snow, oh please don't get me started. Just when I was getting excited for Halloween, i see its snowing outside. And the way people are talking, this winter is going to be very nasty. Yes, that's just what are economy needs.
I've been thinking, and once Mike gets another job and I graduate and get my degree we're going to save up and move to FL because this is something we have talking about for a long time, and now we have come to realize, there is nothing stopping and no reason why we shouldn't. Granite its going to take a few years to save up and get life situated, but damn it, its going to happen!
In Derby news this week, we have been hitting practice hard because we are starting to learn new things about us as we bout. Giving all we can at practices and reading the Rule Book 4.0 we will come out on top one of these times. For being such a new team and new sport I think the Sirens are kicking ass. Although I cant help but feel over whelmed with Derby, work, and school all just getting crazier and crazier. Speaking of school, last week I forgot my flash drive at school in Written Comm. and someone snatched it. Thanks, because I had two essay's on there that are due this week. And I am NOT redoing them. So who ever has it, PLEASE return it! Thank you. That's all I got for now, so Ta Ta for now!

Rain, really?

Why is it when we need rain in the summer and only get like one week of it, and don't need it in the fall because it is already cold and miserable? I'm the type of person that could live in 90 degree weather year round, so winter is not really my thing. Mike and I still have not heard back from our accident, so we share my vehicle which I just put a good $500 in. I would rather ride my Schwinn to school but instead since the rain wont ever stop, Mike has to drop me off and pick me up from school. Wheres the fun in that? Other then being upset about the rain, we had lost our Bout against the Cedar Rapids Roller Girls once again. We did a lot better then last time but we also had a couple girls that had gotten hurt pretty bad. Our captain half way in broke her wrist and later found out that she had suffered 3 contusions to her brain. Doctors said she might have permanent brain damage but thinks she'll be fine. Kind of scary, i know. Needless to say she might be pulling out of Derby because if she gets another concussion she will have permanent brain damage. That's what happens in Derby though, i guess. At least we don't have another Bout for over a month. Now if we could just get this rain to stop, I would be able to enjoy myself. Ive been looking forward to decorating for Halloween, which is my favorite Holiday by the way. I do not put any decorations out unless its Halloween. So one of these days BEFORE Halloween I shall decorate!

Not a Good one

Well boys and girls, This week has not been very kind to me. I only made it to practice once this week because unfortionantly me and my fiance currently have no vehicle. I would love it for someone to ask, "whys that?" Well..My car broke down Saturday night on our way home from Victory, which is about 35 minuets from La Crosse, and we were lucking to make it home because my timing belt went out. So there is a couple hundred dollars I cant afford. Now you ask, what about Mikes truck? Its actually quite funny..(not really) but on Monday night on our way to Derby practice, we were not even a block from our house and a cop fails to yield at the intersection and hits us. Yes I said COP! SHE failed to yield, can you imagine!? Well it totaled both vehicles and I hit my head on the window so I had to go to the hospital the next day just to make sure I wasn't brain damaged or anything. We are hoping to hear from the attorney pretty soon to see what they are going to give us because they should at least give us blue book value for the explorer. Also, to top everything off, on the 25Th (Friday) Mike got laid off! He got laid off on our five year anniversary, oh and I ended up getting called into work, so we didn't even get quality time together. That was my awesome week/weekend! Everyone please buckle up and watch out for cops...They'll get ya!
