Day 118
So, I'm trying hard not to be a mope. Ugh let me get through the first part of my day. I went to a half day of work, well just a bit more than half. At 2:00 I left for a Dr's appointment of which I wont know the test results for two weeks. I hate that! One of these days they are going to get so advanced that they can run your tests right there in the office and tell you before you walk out the door what the results are. Anyway, after I left there I went by my voting poll in Knightdale because my address on my license is still my parents address...shhhh...but when your renting and not sure how long your going to be at one address its nice not to have to renew your license every time you move. Anyway, I did my Civic duty like a good little patriot. Then I realized I had no idea how much money I have in my bank account and I needed gas. So, I went by my parents house to use the computer long enough to check my account balance and then ran off to get gas.
Have you noticed gas prices have gone up up up?? Yeah well, there's two reasons that I'm aware of for this happening.
1- Oil Spill: The Gulf of Mexico experienced an Oil Spill due to the explosion of an oil rig. Well that just sucks. Not only does it have an environmental impact but it has an impact on your wallet. I'm no tree hugging hippie by any means but I personally don't like these oil spills. It kills animals, destroys water sources, and it can even be seen from outer space.
2- Gas Tax Increase: Apparently there is a big fat tax increase on gasoline coming to gas stations near you. Lovely. I know I'm thrilled about the rising gas prices surpassing three and four dollars a gallon...aren't you? And people's answer to this is that I should get a hybrid. Well guys I hate to break it to you but for all the good they do they're not going to be any cheaper. You do realize that if any part of that thing breaks it's going to cost you as much as the cost of the car just to fix those new-fangled mechanical parts! I'm not saying that we shouldn't be trying to create better modes of transportation that are more economical and better for our environment...but I wont be purchasing one of these new modes until they've got them more into the main stream and it becomes more cost effective to own one rather than less.
Anyway, off that rant and onto the rest of my day. I got home, worked out, ate dinner and watched a few episodes of Gilmore Girls with Jordan before I got the text from my fabulous boyfriend that he's still studying for his comprehensive Chemistry Final and that the one night this week that we'll actually be able to talk...well, it wont be happening. Seriously?! I'm so pissed off and sad and upset and depressed! UGH! Stupid girly emotions!!!! As if it's not already hard enough to have a relationship over the phone but now that he's got this stupid nights and weekends thing not only do I NOT get to see him but it's cutting out the one thing that I DO get...telephone conversations. How the hell are we supposed to maintain a relationship if we can't even talk to each other anymore? This just SUCKS! He texted me back and forth for a little while after I got out of the shower and while he was taking a food break. He knows how I feel and truthfully he says he feels the same way... well that's a relief. I'm glad to hear that he's suffering too...I mean we all know misery loves company. Not that I want him to hurt it's just that I need to know that it hurts him like it does me when we can't be together or even talk. So, that helped me feel a little better. And after tomorrow he's done with the semester and hopefully we'll get back to some kind of normalcy...whatever that is.
