Catching Up

So it's been a while has it not? August was my last real entry, so yeah... anyway. A lot has gone down, and up, since then so how about a quickie?

In (to the best of my knowledge)chronological order:

-Got a slight raise. Not much, but enough to where I can at least not be drowned by bills etc. (More on that situation later.) I'm supposedly required to take on more duties or something because of this, although my conversation with my boss was that I felt I wasn't getting compensated enough for what I was already doing for the company. I will need to discuss this again with him sometime, as my proposed and NEEDED number was rejected.(haggled)

-Decided that me and Jamie needed to part ways. I have on and off had feelings of doubt about our relationship for the last year or so, and I felt that it was wrong of me to continue to be with her and not be honest about my desire to leave. Talked to her about it one day and to my relief, got the exact same sentiment from her. We need to be our own.....selves.... for a while. She hasn't really gone out and dated around as I have and it's selfish of me to restrain her from doing so. So we decided to just finish our lease we had just renewed, get separate beds, and continue life as normal until September 08 when we move out. Not sure what im going to do then, but that's another story...

-Met a really awesome person.... tried to keep things casual and on a 'just whatever' basis... guess it didn't work and we got too close? I feel like I was doing a decent job of steering things back toward casual territory, but by that time the damage had apparently been done. So yeah... still have all my fingers and toes though!

-Got a car....yeah, that's right. Me getting a new car. Crazy huh? Black 08 Yaris '3 door'(hatchback). My dad talked to some dealership in Beaumont and they got me down to like $307 a month with 6 year warranty and my dad's even got my insurance covered for 6 months. pretty awesome. I'm really happy with it, although I haven't really had any chances to break it in yet. (Gas mileage is awesome btw)

Other than those HIGHLIGHTS I've pretty much been cruising through 9-to-5 life and trying to make time for gaming. Nothing going on in the 'romance'(laughable) area, so I guess I'm allowed to be a geek now? Ehh, whatever. Started working out every other day, which is cool I guess. I don't really think I look any different, but my main concern is strength anyway. I don't want to get crushed by a simple task like moving a box to a different room, or opening a pickle jar.

Let's see what else.... ummm... having a party tonight? Big Lebowski themed. Wii/PS3 bowling, White Russians, and the movie playing. Good times. Hopefully I'll get to hang out with some out-of-town friends over the next few weeks or so. I'm taking a few extra days off for vacation this year, so that should help.

I should be posting some more here from now on, but not sure what. I'll do my best to keep this from being a diary or something though. ;)

Until then...
