oh, the weather outside is frightful.

it snowed!

normally i hate snow, but it's not so bad when you don't have to drive in it. i was brave enough to drive up the street tonight to go to walmart (literally, it's like two blocks away), and i obviously didn't die. so that's good. i did almost eat it in the parking lot, though. i'm not exactly the most graceful person.

i'm pretty much bored out of my mind. no one wants to drive because of the weather, and to be honest, i don't really either. so i'm stuck here at home by myself. not fun.

kira and i had a movie day earlier today. i'm so incredibly glad that she and i are friends again. our fight was the most rediculous, immature thing ever, and i'm so happy that we made up. she's one of my very best friends, and i love her to death. we're so much alike it's scary. she's my twin. plus, she's pretty much my one close friend that can drink. :] except i wish yelm was closer to puyallup. that way i could see her more often.

barb is actually moving out of my dad's house. i never thought i would see that happen. this is like the fourth time in the last two years that my dad has said that he's done with her, but every other time he would take her back. but it really seems like their relationship is over this time. she flipping went crazy. she won't even let my dad be at the house while she's moving her stuff out. like, literally the other day she kicked him out of the house for two hours because she didn't want to see him. it's so pathetic. i hate to see my dad hurting. and i know he's hurting, even though he does a good job at covering it. i just want the dad back that i had before this whole barb ordeal. i miss my old dad. i want to be my daddy's girl again.

still no exciting events on the boy front. i'm really beginning to think that something about me repels every single guy on the planet. i've been single for SO long ... almost three years. i'm ready for a relationship. i just can't seem to find a guy that's ready for someone like me. maybe it's because i'm too picky. but i'm not about to lower my standards and accept less than i want, less than i deserve.

where on earth has this year gone? it dawned on me today that in less than three weeks, it will be 2009. this year has gone by so fast, it's insane. but so much has happened. some good, some bad. i moved to olympia. went to the world championship show in texas. had a falling out with my roommate. got a new job. moved to a beautiful new place in puyallup. made some awesome new friends. and had a blast with my old friends, as always. it's been an amazing ride.

i'm so stoked for christmas. except for the fact that my mom is the only person that i've bought a gift for. but everyone else is pretty easy. i'm a huge fan of gift cards. i still don't know what the christmas plan is ... something small, i assume. larissa's not coming - she and alex are staying in idaho. i think russell is coming home from central, but i'm not sure. even so, i know it'll be a blast. christmas is my favorite holiday.

okay, i think that's enough rambling for tonight. i bought boys like girls' dvd, so i have that to watch. plus, i need to think of a few things for my "gimme more" list ... maybe i'll do that now.

and part of me really wants to make brandyn go outside and make a snowman with me when he gets home. we'll see if i'm successful.
