Leaving for Kansas Tomorrow

I'm waking up at four in the morning and we are leaving at five thirty. I'll be going to bed in about an hour and I still have packing that I need to finish. It's going to be a long night because I doubt that I'll be getting to sleep soon. I'll be having breakfast with my brother and his girlfriend tomorrow at a restaurant called The Place and then my father, grandpa, and I are going to be headed to my grandpa's brother Richards house in Colorado. He said that the smoke from the wildfire is really clogging up the air. While we're in Colorado I'm going to give him a copy of a picture I drew my sophomore year of my great grandpa. I think that he'll really like it. 8] After spending the night at Uncle Richards we're going to be continuing on our way to Kansas. We will be spending plenty of time in Kansas with my awesome family out there. On fathers day I'm going to take my dad and my grandpa out for lunch. I'm super excited to leave tomorrow...

Kansas

So I will be leaving for Kansas in a few days with my dad and my grandpa. We are going to alternate driving which is going to be really interesting. I have yet to pack but I probably should. Today my mom and I tried to deposit the check I got for working but banks are stupid and make me want to punch infants. Anyway, we were going to deposit the check so I could get a sketch book for the road trip and a present for my friend who is having her birthday party tomorrow. The bank decided to be a hoe on a stick and so we couldn't get the money. My mom paid for my friends gift and I am going to have to buy the sketch book before I leave. We then went to Kohl's to go shopping but sadly that store doesn't like short or fat people because I couldn't find my size in pants in anything besides average length. Sigh, if only I were thinner... and taller. I think that all stores assume that people are of average height or taller because I only found a few sizes of ANY pants that were ...

Day Two Of Workin'

So today I woke up at... oh, noon? I think it was some time around noon. Anyway, I woke up and did the showering and the eating and blah blah blah. My parents left for a vacation thing without me and I left for work. Today I worked for about four and a half hours which was nice compared to yesterday's fourteen. Soon I will be going to bed because tomorrow I have to wake up at ten so I can get to work by noon. There are going to be two shows tomorrow so I'm assuming I'll be working, at the least, ten hours? I'm liking this work thing because I know at the end of it all I will be getting paid. 8] This has only motivated me more to get a job that will actually be more than one weekend. After I get back from Kansas I am going to try and get a job somewhere so I can make more money for my trip. Today I realized that I have too many key chains attached to two keys. I have two keys for my house, one for the top lock and one for the bottom, and going with those two keys I have ...

Dogs and Workin'

So when we took my dog to the vet the vet said she could have something inflamed in her wristy wrist area or she might possibly have Valley Fever. The good news is that while we were at the vet she did some blood tests and we got them back yesterday and she DOESN'T have Valley Fever. The vet also gave us anti-inflammatory medicine for her and it has helped her and she isn't limping as much. I'm really glad that my dog is okay and that I didn't burn her paws on anything. As for work I guess you could say I have a job? It's working for my school and I can only do it this weekend, but it is still a job. I am running the sound equipment for a dance studio that is renting out my school's auditorium and hiring four people to work it. Two students and two teachers. The students are me and my friend John. John is running the light equipment which is intense because he has to do so much stuff. The teachers are the choir teacher, which is one of my teachers, and the culin...
