So sad.

Just got some rather upsetting news about a very dear family member. I'm really upset. I need to take a trip up to the bay area like no ones business. I hope she accepts. I hope she doesn't refuse. :(

ps:

did I mention i dont ha a place to live or people to live with next semester? Can you just say: "Good job Rae! The same problem you have every summer!"

So I'm homeless to boot. And soon to be partially unemployed. I say partially because I still technically work for the City of SD.

Oh, and I am no longer teaching my morning lessons, am not coaching polo and have not gotten my reffing certs. I'm a big mass of joy right now.

But on the upside, my volume controls work again. :)

well, that was nice.

Well, pops finally guilt'd me into visiting him at Bowling. Had an awesome fight with my brother, which basically boiled down to me being a loving sister and him not caring whether I am or not. That makes me feel awesome.

Had a actual good talk with Nick, that kid's fun.

Someone thought I was my dads wife. People think I look 23 years older than I actually am. That really made my day.

Talking to my mom about Comic-con, my uncle was unable to get the tickets. And as of now I don't know of anyone going. We'd have to go friday, and I have things I need to get done. Traffic school, PT, whatever else. I find it funny though. I've had to struggle each year to scrounge money, or frind a buddy (The one year I went with an Ex, that wasn't awkward at all) trying to find some way to get out of Aqua Fest or get my shift covered, getting the friday off to go, what-have-you. I have had some sort of issue every year to be able to make it to Comic-Con. I finally have NO scheduling conflicts, Aqua Fest was last week, I have Friday AND Saturday off, and absolutely no friends to go with. Everyone is doing something else. They have the issues. And I can't help but see the incredible irony. Of course, talking to my mom about it has made me cry, because thats whats she does now, she makes me cry. I have a feeling that it has a little something to do with the fact that people think I look 40-something and my brother would leave me in a ditch to die if it meant saving him gas and money. What a wonderful night this has turned out to be! Happy Wednesday Rae!

Today

What a day today was. I had at least 4 sets of parents ask me if I was okay, and if everything was alright, and if so why wasn't I teaching lessons? It made me feel really good. :) Made me realize that I love teaching, and if that means morning and afternoon I'm totally cool with that.

And during rec. swim Russ proposed to me with one of our giant packages of hot dogs. We got a great laugh. Ya' see, earlier, I had this smart ass I was trying to get to say please for the mark on his hand after his swim test. Russ was mocking me, telling him to say: "Rae! Oh most beautiful guardian of lives! Take pity on me and give me a mark on my hand, PLEASE!" and the like, then he suggested the kid got on his knees and ask, to which the kid replied that he only did that when giving people hot dogs. WOW! We got a laugh out of that. Such a laugh that hasn't been heard! It was marvelous! Ah! What a day!

Then all was well until the split tiny tot class. Damn, did that girl have a set of lungs on her! Nothing but screaming of bloody murder! Holy Lung Capacity, Batman! No one at the pool could hear what they were thinking this girl's screaming was so loud! OMG! Thank goodness that kid is not in the class any more!
