Number 5 is ALIVE!!
I finally received my package today from good old Kansas City. better yet, it was from one of my favorite buddies, Sarah Armstrong! Ive been anticipating the arrival of this package, and I was beginning to think it was never going to come. I didnt know what it was, but I knew Sarah was pretty excited about. So, it goes without saying it was something I should be very excited about too! I never would have guessed that when I opened it up, a George Brett bobble head would be staring back at me! I busted up laughing.......but then, i was touched. Well, I always wear my heart on my sleeve, so when I got to the AMAZING card, and awesome quotable magnet, I got a little teary eyed. Im lucky to have such awesome and thoughtful friends, and sometimes I wonder why were all so far away from each other. I think it makes things stronger, though, in the end.
Anyways, back to the best part. George Brett, as I addressed in my first journal entry ever, is my favorite baseball player of all time.......for no apparent reason. When I was younger I just thought he was so good and cute, but as I grew older, people would tease me about liking a baseball player that has ass problems. I just wanted to be like my brother, jeremy, because he had a favorite player, Nolan Ryan, so I needed one too. Either way, I still love George Brett. He is still the reason why 5 is my lucky number. And the reason why I have a George Brett bobble head hanging out on my coffee table right now.
phenomenal.

I think that is my new favorite word.

ANywho, work is moving along. I had yet another class today, which was once again boring. I just havent felt good this week, so Im not in my usual "make the most of it" mood. I think Im progressing from the honeymoon stage to the shock stage right about now........(see Marlene Kramer's 4 Stages of Reality Shock model) This is the one where reality hits, and things are a little overwhelming. This Kramer lady really knows what shes talking about.
arg. Well I took a nap after work, so now Im not going to be able to sleep tonight, rendering me useless for my first of 2 twelve hours shifts this weekend.

haha. Im still on my college schedule.......damnit...
