Trippin' Billies

So...road trip. Thursday. Barley, Megan, Sam, Danny and I all hoped in Sam's Excursion and headed to VA Beach for the Dave Matthew's Concert. We left around 10am thinking we would have time to hit the beach before the concert venue. We thought the normal 4 hour ride would get us there in plenty of time to lay like broccoli. Needless to say, 6 hours later we were lucky if we made it to the venue. Car ride was fun....belted out tunes from the early 90's and made fun of everyone. Once at the venue, bought a bottle of rum and some coke, a few cups and ice and set up shop in the parking lot. Concert was great, especially with the mellow vibe goin' on. Love Dave, absolutely love him!


On a more serious note...my grandma (Mammam) had surgery today. For those of you who don't know, she hasnt been doing to well. Some of you remember she broke her leg about a year and a half ago then broke it again so she hasnt been too mobile. Now she had surgery on her shoulders....she's become the bionic woman. Hopefully all will turn out well. Say a prayer okay?

Stuff

So, today is Thursday and Megan and I, and a couple of friends, are heading to VA Beach to the Dave Matthews concert. Megan's two "friends" are idiots. We invited them to the concert like two weeks ago and everything was copacetic. Yesterday she calls to give them a time to meet. They are in NJ so now we had to scrounge and find people to take the tickets at like 9:00 am today. Stupid girls.

On to a more somber note. There was a police officer shot and killed in Laurel. I knew him. His son was a student in my school. He was always dressed in uniform and was very pleasant. Its so sad to see someone die, but for it to be in such a violent and useless fashion...shame.

Manic Mondays

So, here it is....Monday again. Still hate the supervisor. She is so daft. I sent her a calendar, indicating which days I was available and which days I have class. I have class M,W,F, from 5:30 on. She scheduled meetings and clients on Monday and Friday from 5:30-6:30...umm, yeah....see I got class. DUH.

Weekend was good, went to Adam's Morgan on Saturday with Cindy. Met up with Steve, Christie, Stephanie, and Steve's friend Matt at Adam's Mill. College bar with good music from the 80's and 90's. Has lead me to download the oldies but goodies....now in the music library one can find the pretenders, the cure, the clash, and rob base. Hmmm, gotta love reminiscing. Got any suggestions for some more good music??

UPDATE

so, here it is. Friday morning at 11:30 and I'm not doing shit! I love it. I have class tonight but I dont have to be anywhere until then so I am going to enjoy myself. This week has been so hectic. I was supposed to have a paper due today (postponed til Monday now) and I was running around to libraries to do the research. Then I had my dreaded externship. Jesus, this woman is such a damn flake. She sent me a schedule on Monday for the week. She had me scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday. Clients were scheduled like so....A, B, C. Easy right. NO, Tuesday she calls at 1:30 (i'm to meet the client at 2) to tell me she's running late so it wont be until 3 and that we aren't seeing client A but client C. WHAT?? Then on Thursday she did the same thing. She switched clients B and A. Which meant I had to drive from Laurel, to Silver Spring, back to Laurel, and then to Wheaton....WTF?? I may have to discuss this lack of organization and time management with her when I see her Monday.

On a lighter note....Jule answered my previous question correctly. Julie receives a dinner to discuss this so called "friend"

More later.....

Hmmmmmm

Okay, so I am going to be cryptic. What is with people from your past just calling you up randomly to chat? Has that ever happened to anyone else? I know, trust me, that I am not the best communicator but with very close friends I do try and make and effort to call someone at least once a week or more...I said I try. However, this friend has a habit of falling off the face of the Earth and then calling at the most awkward times. Hadn't talked to them since February. Hmmm.....why is that? Anyone want to hazard a guess as to who it was or what they wanted?? Anyone??

Secondly...what is with this stupid girl in my class? She has a pole stuck so far up her ass I think the jaws of life would be needed to remove it. She is such a pain. It all started last semester...She is from Long Island and thinks somehow being from NY makes her God's gift. She was rude last semester and now this semester she hasnt spoken a word to me or to Dani. WTF....POLE UP THE ASS.

Lastly...what is with all my professors? Jeez...hard asses the past two semesters and now their all like "Hiiii!" "How are you??!!!" Ack....leave me alone.

I hate....

Okay. I, like everyone else, hate Mondays. But I am beginning to hate Tuesdays more. Why you ask? Because Tuesdays mean I have to go with my crazy clinic supervisor. I am beginning to dread these days because the woman is a damn flake. Ahh...I don't want to go.

Megan and I. How cute are we? 

Barley and Danny (suprisingly Barley isnt drunk in this picture 

Megan and Barley. Doesn't Megan look fierce? 

Barley and I celebrating his birthday at the old Cornerstone 

Megan and Mauve (or purple as I like to call her). Yes, that's Danny's finger 

WTF

Okay, so the weekend is over. What a great weekend it was though. Again, I slept all day Saturday. Is there something wrong with me that I sleep all day?? Do I care?! Nope. I love it....sleep, read a book, lay in my pjs. Whoo hoo! Then at 11pm, Megan calls and off I go to Cornerstone. Cornerstone has become my regular hang out. I seem to be there every weekend. It's so much fun though. Besides it was to celebrate Barley's birthday , how could I resist?

We were going to go to the zoo on Sunday but it was so freakin' hot. Cindy, Michael, and I went to Alexandria instead. Michael's friend Cory owns a restaurant (Le Goulois) and we opted for a free meal in air conditioning instead. Smart aren't we?! Then we went to another air conditioned venue...the movie theater. Saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith, awesome! Cindy and I then decided to go to Adam's Morgan for a drink. It took like an hour to find a parking spot but we did and then went to Meze. Cute little bar/lounge. Course we were the only two girls in there so these four guys decided it was there duty to talk to us. Hmm, great. Nope, slurring idiots. They asked the same questions. "SO, you from around here?" "So, whats there to do on a Sunday night?" "What was your name again?" Stupid idiots. The one guy kept mentioning my damn shirt....it had sequins. He seemed to like those. I am sure that the fact that the sequins went along the chest area had nothing to do with it. Well two guys left, which meant Cindy and I were stuck with Tweedle-Dumb and Tweedle-Dumber. They were so wasted that I ended up having to pay for the last round of drinks. WTF? Then they didn't know how they were going to get back to their hotel so I had to freakin drive them to their hotel while all Cindy and I heard was "So, look, why don't you stay." "You can have our rooms and we'll sleep by the pool." Umm, no thanks. Dropped the losers off and home to our beds we went.

The End

I am sitting here in an empty office. Today is the last day of school and all my boxes and rugs are packed up. Am I sad? Uh, no. It's summer!!!!! Kinda.

I am so glad that the school year is over but, oh yes, I have class. WTF, who has classes during the summer? Who has classes on M, W, F nights from 5-9 during the summer? What a drag. Oh well, at least the classes are in the evening so my days are free (and my late nights if ya know what I mean!). I want to lay by a pool and get really tan. That is my goal for the summer. Okay, so who has a pool?? Julie????

Weekend Update with....

Okay, so this weekend. I had a great time. I spent ALL day Saturday sleeping. Have you ever done that? All day, sound asleep. Bliss people, bliss. Sunday was great. I went to see Shakespeare in the Park. It's held at the Carter Baron Amphitheater in Rock Creek Park every summer for free. This play was A Midsummer Night's Dream. The actors were incredible and I have never seen Shakespeare so laugh-out-loud funny. Then....With about a half-hour left of the play (about an act or so) all the electricity in the amphitheater went out. Shows over folks. WE MISSED THE CLIMAX OF THE WHOLE SHOW. What a freakin' drag. Still I think we may buy season tickets. Weekend wasn't over though, no, we decided to go out to Cornerstone in College Park to meet Megan and Barley. Not a wise move with work and class the next day! Oh well!

Cindy and I after our 1 1/2 hour wait at Verizon so i could get a new phone.

Big Ass Drafts at Cornerstone. Who are the hotties you ask? Why Megan (on the left) and me, silly.

So Very Busy

It's been so long since I last wrote a thought. Why? Busy, so very busy. I am currently taking two classes, working part time, and participating in a new clinical setting where I get to drive around looking for patients' homes for the better part of my days.
Clinic-going well. I think the supervisor is a bit flaky though. I didn't realize how obsessed I was with schedules and getting information in a timely manner until this clinic. For instance, Friday. I call her at 9:00am with my fax number. I was expecting a fax of patient info as well as a schedule for the week coming up. Oh yeah, I leave work at 3:30 right. At 2:00 I call her because I had yet to receive the fax. 3:00 arrives and finally a fax. See the flaky piece...oh yeah...no schedule attached to the fax. Which means I now have to rely on a phone call to tell me when and where to be. And there in lies the rub, see her phone calls are worse. Thursday...she wants me to meet her at a house in laurel at 2:30pm. She calls me with an address at 2:00!! And says to me, "Are you on the road yet?" Where the hell was i going to drive to with no address???

Fuchs--almost over. Three days left with students then its summer, of course i have two classes and clinic but classes are in the evening and hopefully clinic will only be two/two 1/2 days so i may get to enjoy the sun and have some fun.

Thats all for now, more later, I promise!
