Hey world! How are you? Are you enjoying the Olympics being currently held for you? I hope so, it has been awesome!
Anyway, how's it going everyone? I hope everyone is well. I know I'm doing alright.
Alright so here is an update, A YEAR LATER.
I moved to Georgia. Against my better judgment I did move to this state. So far, not so bad! I mean it's not good, but it's not bad either. The weather here is nice! No snow though, but we do get thunderstorms almost on a day to day and I love it. Been here for almost a year and I'm still going strong.
Anyway here's what happened in order of events:
August 30, 2007- Morgan and I pack up the truck, say goodbye to everyone that matters and take off.
September 1st- My ass is up for 36 hours straight trying to make good time to Michigan to meet up with my dad and make the Football Game.
Sept. 2nd -We watch Michigan get their asses handed to them by APPALACHIAN STATE! WTF?!
Sept. 4th- We make it to my parents house and begin to endure the most hellish two months of everyone's lives. During this period ALOT of shit happened, and I think something in my mind snapped and never felt right since. I seem alot meaner nowadays.
October 19th- Morgan is told he has to move out and I've only seen him a handful of times since then, but I hear he's alright.
October 2007-February 2008- Unknown to alot of people, a deep depression fell over me. I couldn't find a job, I lived at home, which isn't a bad thing, but it's just not for me anymore. And way too much change occurred for me in such a short time. I went from having an AWESOME life in Minnesota, to gaining weight and doing nothing on my couch. It sucked really bad.
February- I'm done with all the self loathing and came to terms with what my life is, and finally started coming out of my funk. I got my license renewed and applied for a job in which I had an awesome foot in the door. Fast Forward a couple days and I got hired. Excitement starts to build that my life has gotten back on track.
April- I start my new job as a correctional officer. It all seemed overwhelming at the time, but I thought about how much my life will improve and immedietly adjusted to the situation with a nice smile on my face.
May- Things really get underway when I have to spend 5 weeks in the Police Academy training for my new job. It was a joke really. That was the easiest 5 weeks of "training" I've ever done. Met some good people and graduated. Now on to the real thing.
June- I start my new job. WOW was I a bit nervous. At first I was asking myself,"What the hell did I get myself into?" but kept my mind on the big prize. Slowly everything gets easier pertaining on how to perform my job and confidence in myself begins to build. On the 11th I find and apartment and move out. YAY!!! Big Prize obtained! Then.....OH NO! I'm all alone in this empty place....this kinda sucks.
July- Jobs going steady, learning new things everyday and confidence continues to grow. But I grow increasingly more and more lonely. Time to do something about that. How about cats you say? Well guess what...ended up getting 2 of them.
The Cats- Mattie: Mattie is a 3 year old female and very dark in color. Mattie's personality is that of a woman who is too good for everyone. When I get home from work she's like,"Ohh pet me, pet me....and now you can stop and leave me alone you pathetic thing. Ohh and where's my food?" She just stalks around the apartment staring at me like I got a booger in my nose and ends up in some curtains. If she's not doing that, then she's beating Elby's ass!
Elby- Elby is now an 11 week year old Tabby Male. He's orange and white and very fluffy. Elby's got the personality of a typical toddler. "OOOOH!! what's this?! OOOOH I made a mess!! OOOH I don't care!!! I'ma gonna break this now!" He knows how to tear shit up and in such a cute way. He knows how to annoy me and Mattie and when I'm not trying my best to settle him down, then Mattie helps by ripping him in what seems to be at least his 50th asshole. But he's great, cause when he's not acting like a kid who ate WAY to much chocolate that's been coated in Redbull he's cuddling up to me on the couch and watching some TV with me.
Present Day- Well everything is about the same. Still learning everyday. Enjoying the most aggrivating job in history, and getting my ass beat by my cats. I have no personal life, which is alright for the most part since I'm focusing on work. Got a new tattoo on my arm on my sister's birthday where she was spoiled by me, and am going to Michigan in October. If anything new develops, I'll let you know! Thanks for reading!
