2009 bad to good? I hope so!

Hello to all who still read this. If there is anyone. I took a long time off from writing because I was a debbie downer and didn't want to be responsible for being a poopy-attitude creator. Since the last time I wrote B and I have rekindled our romance. School last semester ended well with my grades all in the "A" level.

My job situation has also worked out. I am now working full time as a cashier. I like the hours, Monday to Friday no later than 4:3o. It's actually quite complimentary to B's hours and great for school. I still have my evenings to do my homework and it's great. I'm really looking forward to this semester. However, for the last couple of weeks my brain has not been devoted to my school work. It's been very hard to concentrate due to some of the things life has decided to throw at me.

So far 2009 has been tough. Rewarding at the same time though. The first weekend of the year I found out that some friends of mine had been captured in the middle east. They were released 3 days later. The following week I received a phone call from my uncle letting me know that I might want to get to the coast soon to see my Grandma because the outlook wasn't very hopeful. She has overcome the flu that was causing her the most discomfort and has begun to her path back to health. The following week my kitty cat developed a bacteria infection of the brain and passed away.

If you recall from early, archive posts that little cat has been with me for quite some time. It came as a shock because when I took her into the vet they told me it was an ear infection which didn't surprise me, she's had a few ear infections before. But the next day I got a call from the vet saying she wasn't doing well and I should come in. So I did, but I will save that for the next post which will be devoted to her.

Good news: On the weekend B and I were driving to his place and he read the sign in the blockbuster window "Buy 2 movies get 1 free". So I turned to go in. He asked me what I was doing and I answered "I thought you wanted to go there, cause you read it". And he said that he was only reading signs. Well, since I was already turning off the road I continued and told him we were going in. Once we were in we found some movies that i liked and went to stand in line. Once we were in line I noticed the pile of wii games such as "rock band" and "guitar hero" and those type of things. Well, I've been in search of a wii fit since they came out last year sometime, but they're so hot that it's near impossible to come across one. Anyways, B saw the pile about the same time I did and looked at me and said, "stay here, I'll go check it out." So I stood there not expecting anything when I heard him say, "Do you want one or two". I apologize to the random man in front of me who had to deal with me standing behind him. It took every ounce of my being to contain my real excitement. I could hardly drive afterwards...I was so excited that it was actually in my car. We got back to B's place and he asked if I was going to break it out. At first I shyed away from it. I know crazy right? And finally he convinced me to embrace my new friend. So much fun. I think I should name it. Any suggestions??
