work is going great. i've been getting nothing but praise from dorene, my trainer. and i was told that she doesn't hand out undeserved compliments, so that makes me feel really good. she forgot that i've only been with her for technically a little over two weeks ... she thought i was at about the six week mark. she told me that i'm at the six-week level ... that it's crazy how quickly i'm picking things up. that made me feel really good. :] she's the nicest woman ever, and she's pretty much my mother-figure at work. i had a horrible migraine yesterday and went home halfway through my shift. she called me last night and left me a voicemail because she was concerned ... "hey pumpkin, i just wanted to see how you were doing and i hope you're feeling better..." she's amazing. :]
madre is kicking ass on the paint circuit. she's way ahead of where she was last year, which means that she's probably going to get a shitload of awards at the end of the year. i'm so proud of her. :] she somehow talked john into letting her buy a new horse trailer, and she's getting a GORGEOUS three-horse logan with eleven foot living quarters. the hotel fees were just getting rediculous - if she hadn't been able to stay in her friend's motorhome at the last show, her hotel room would have cost her $1500.00. fricking insane. so now she'll be able to stay in the horse trailer.
i'm moving to puyallup sooner than i had thought. the lease on my current apartment isn't up until november, but i'm so sick of the commute - because of traffic, it took me almost an hour and a half to get home on friday. screw that. i found some awesome apartments that are literally three minutes from work. it's a gated community, and each apartment has it's own garage, which is awesome. i found a two bedroom, one bath apartment that's available on september 25th and if someone doesn't claim it in the next couple days, i'm going to take it. i don't really need a two bedroom place, but when it's 150 square feet bigger than the one bedroom and is only $60 more ... i can't pass that up. it's expensive - about $1000 a month - but that's okay. it's virtually crime-free (thank god i have the ability to look that up at work) and has a really good reputation in the community. so i'm just going to live in puyallup and still pay the last two month's rent on my place in olympia. ahhhhh, i'm so excited! i can't wait to live by myself, so close to work. :]
alright, i've got to get going. food is calling my name. and so is burn cream ... i tried to straighten my ear this morning instead of my hair. i clamped down on my ear, and have a giant blister. it hurts like a bitch, and it's really gross looking. yuck. anyways, paaayce.
by the way, here's what my hair ended up looking like when i chopped even more off:
i effing love it. :]
