long time, long time, long time gone
Phew. Where to start? I'll start by saying it has been awhile since I've blogged. Even longer since I've blogged consistently. I forgot a cable for my phone at home so I can't upload pics. Shoot! Work's been going well. I work a lot. Seems this isn't flowing like I thought it would. So I'm out. I'll be back again next week. Cheers!

w00t!
I have been away an awful long time. I'd thought to post another update. Things are going well. I hop in bed each night very tired. 18 credit hours and 30 - 40 hours of work each week will do that to you. With all the time constraints, I try and find time to see friends, which sadly (and I do apologize) I've not been too good at lately. Sarah has begun student teaching and we get to see each other on the weekends. I really look forward to the weekends. ;)
Back to the books. Cheers!

estoy frustrado
boy! there's a lot going on. first, my car seems to be doing some funny things. recently, the engine started running really hot. without the heater on 3/4 to full blast, the engine will overheat. this is the same thing that was happening with my last car before it conked out.
it has me worried.
second, i don't have money to take it in and have it looked at. i'm frustrated because i can't afford to fix it and i know driving it around is only going to make the problem worse and cause even more problems. i don't know what to do.
third, i would like to be working more and earning more money. it's very hard with school though and i already feel like i'm working too much this semester. plus, my job entails driving my car. so the more i drive it, the more the problem worsens. sheesh!
please pray for me and the situation. i'm really concerned about the car pooping out, finishing the semester strong, paying off debt, avoiding going further into debt, saving, planning for the future, and having time and freedom to live and have fun. there's a lot going on and i want to be doing the right thing(s) and making wise decisions too. and i know i need help with it.
cheers!

adding another to the list
i have a running list titled "there are two kinds of people in the world". i won't put the entire list in this post but an example of one is:
"there are two kinds of people in this world, those who wear dress shoes to work, and those who wear work boots to work".
the most recent addition to the list springs from a conversation with sarah during the car ride home from an out of town visit. sarah has grown up in the biggest city in nebraska - omaha (mainly ralston). i grew up in a small town in nebraska. i prefer small towns to big towns and country to city. this led to a conversation about our mutual concern over the issue. it also led the brain i carry around in my head to come up with another entry on the list. here it is:
"there are two kinds of people in the world: those who think the country is a place you travel to/visit , and those who think the city is a place you travel to/visit."
cheers!

halloween 2008
this halloween i took off work and was planning to carve a special pumpkin for sarah (with i love you on it. i also wanted to get some flowers and a nice fall-ish scented candle to display with the pumpkin. all this was going to be placed on her porch so she'd she it when she came home from work at night. i thought it would be a nice way to surprise her. i was also going to show up in omaha early and have dinner with her parents.
the way the past two days have worked out, however, was nowhere near conducive for such a plan to be enacted. i won't go into detail but one of the wrenches in the gears was the conking out of my laptop. i did not make it to omaha last night but halloween turned out just fine. josh and i hung out together. it was really fun. we bought a pumpkin each for carving. i made some grilled sandwiches for dinner and then we started carving. we didn't finish until after midnight, technically not halloween any more. but who cares? we were excited to put them on the front porch. josh had to be at a medical study early in the morning at 5 so he and i stayed up the entire night. mostly, we watched videos on youtube. it was fun and we laughed so much.
cheers!

unattending
boy! it's been a LONG time since i've blogged. the days are just too full now and on top of that, i really don't like to sit in front of the computer all that long.
life's been good. i'm getting A's and B's in school. work has been going really well but recently it has been just a bit slow. the softball season has ended and that allows me to work on tuesday nights. it's six more hours a week and though it takes away free time, i am thankful to work more and thus to save more. on wednesdays and sundays, sarah and i get to see each other. i look forward to these days a lot.
i am thinking about a new job. delivering pizzas puts too many miles on my car, i'm always greasy and i smell like pizza when i leave. i am happy to have a well paying job though. i'd just like to find something outside of the food industry i guess.
that's the news for now. catch ya later.
cheers!

there's gonna be some changes up ahead
i won't be updating the blog every day for some time. this fall is a very busy one and daily blogging just can't be a priority. i'll still be blogging though, just not each day.
cheers!
