Update...

Well, I finally updates my fanfic - I think it's been months, so everyone likely hates me for it. But I just had this awful writer's block and a complete lack of time, and I didn't want to submit anything subpar. So sorry to anyone who's reading it! Namely you, Gelly - you always had such quick updates with your story, and I've been making you wait forever.

To all those who don't read fanfiction, you can ignore that! And there's no need to read mine if you don't want to - this is just a notice that it's updated at this point. Finally.

In other news...well...hmm...uh, I can't really think of much. Oh yeah - my roommate has strep throat and a 102 degree fever. How great is that, right? (I hope everyone can sense my sarcasm here...*sigh*) I seriously can't get sick, not at this point. My classes are just so friggin' hard - I have a 3-page composition for Spanish 302, a 5-page research paper for Science 100, and a 3-4 page essay for English 291 due next week - not to mention two exams in Psych and Sociology, continued work hours, and a bunch of other things. Not to mention that I don't even get any Supernatural as a break - that was always a stress reliever for me. I CAN'T WAIT TWO MORE MONTHS FOR NEW EPPIES!!!

Oh, and my parents are having disagreements again. Nothing serious or anything, but they're divorced - don't talk to each other - and give me conflicting advice that they both think is correct. I'm not really allowed to make my own decision, I have to choose one of theirs...and then tell the other one my decision and have them get angry for listening to the other parent... I mean, I'm used to having to do it, but that doesn't make things any less annoying. The situation this week is that they each think I should do something different about my checking account...my dad wants me to have a high amount of money in it (to deposit my entire $650 refund check), because I thinks I deserve to be able to spend it; and it will teach me responsibility and self-constraint when choosing whether or not to buy things. But my mom thinks I should put half of that check in my savings account, because it's too much money in my checking account and she thinks I'll spend it all...and that I have to save for emergencies.

I really just want to combine the two...put like $100 in my savings, to keep it at an appropriate level, but keep the majority in my checking. *sigh* But even doing that is going with one parent over the other (at least, that's how they'll see it), and I really just want to make my own decisions. I want to learn how to handle finances on my own, not by following orders.

But off this little tangent (because I'm sure you don't really care that much...), I went to my first frat party last Friday. You heard right. The non-party girl went out to a frat house. And guess what? I had fun! There was a pit in the basement full of soap bubbles...the foam room...that me and my friends all got in. We just threw the soap at each other and got completely soaked; it was awesome. But it may be one of those things where you have to be there...cause it sounds kinda lame when I write it out...

Well, that's pretty much everything. Pointless blog, but it was time for an update.

First???? really?? woohooo!!!
I hate so much that you're caught in the middle of what seems like childish behavior on your parent's part. You should be able to make your own decisions, and not worry about whose "side" you're taking. And really, shame on them for putting you in that position! (Not to bad-mouth the parents, but I just don't like to see anyone used to prove the other wrong). You are far too delightful, sweet, kind and considerate to have that extra stress placed on you.
And now, Dr. Sharon recommends lots of extra vitamin C and always make sure to wash your hands!! never touch your hands to your face!!! No strep for you my dear! You do indeed have a bunch on your plate. If there's anything I can help with (you know, that doesn't involve heavy machinery ~wink~) you just let me know.

Soap fight? That's a new one! But it sounds like you had loads of fun

Now let me take a moment to say, I'M SO GLAD YOU KEPT GOING ON THE FANFIC I thought for awhile there you were just going to leave it. Don't get me wrong, if you would have chosen to just leave it I would have supported you. I just want you to keep writing because you are SO good!!!!

Oh! About the whole thing with the parents....I say go with your descision. Put $100 in savings and the rest in checking. Therefore, it is a combination of them both mixed in with a little you If they get mad...I'm sure they'll get over it.

Almost forgot! Tell your roommate that I hope she feels better. Maybe when she gets better, she can help you out with that load of homework!

Spamming is common between us isn't it??

Shazz: You always have the best, most insightlful comments. You're right about my parents - they both love me and want what's best, but when they don't communicate...and still hold grudges against each other from the past...it's just...grrr! But everything is fine now and all worked out, so that's good. Thanks for the advice about not getting sick, too - no strep throat for me! **hugs**

Pix: Hehe, you got the alert e-mail! I'm bak in business!

Gelly: Woohoo, blog spam! Yep, that soap fight was awesome...*sigh* And of course I continued the fanfic! I waited a while, but I'd never give up on it. Gah, and Supernatural!!!! I can't wait for more eppies! *screams*
