Newsflash: If you talk about me behind my back, Im gonna find out. Also, when you lie to me, not only am I gonna find out but Im gonna be more pissed off then I was to begin with. And you really dont wanna piss me off.

Wow, this past week I took a look at my life and said "how the hell do I get myself in these situations?!" For someone who doesn't like a lot of drama, I could write a soap opera right now. The situation that Ive managed to get myself twisted up in is so crazy that I dont even know what to think. One of my friends told me to just take myself out of the situation all together which would actually probably be the best thing to do but its hard to just let everything go when your attached. Even with all the complicated junk, its been a great week. Tuesday night I met Dustin at Waffle House, theres nothing I love more in the middle of night than a waffle! Wednesday I went to the movies with J which was really cool cause I haven't got to spend alot of time with her this summer. After that it was off to the park with Dustin at 1 am. Then I was woken up this morning by the phone, errrrr, and went to a friend's for more drama. Im really proud of myself though cause I actually put everything out in the open and said exactly what I felt. Very rare moment for me but I feel A LOT better now. Oh yeah, I started Phillys on Tuesday. So far Ive just worked like 2-3 hr shifts but I really like it. I really need to crack down on studying the menu, I have to know what goes on every sandwhich. It just sucks that Ive gotta drive 30 minutes to and from work, I absolutely hate driving. If I wasnt a poor college student, Id seriously pay someone to drive me around. Just gotta week till I move!!! Im so ready to move and get out of here.

Goodbye to the D's

Today was my last day at Captain D's and it was very bittersweet. Yesterday was the last day I worked with a few people I loved to death: D, Austin, and Nicole. Nicole and Austin both gave me hugs and D called me after she got off work to tell me bye so we both wouldnt be crying in the store. I was really glad Ashley worked a few hours for Amber today cause shes my fave person there and I really wanted to spend my last day w/ her. Ive grown pretty close to her and even told her a few secrets that no one else knows, I really hope we still hang out. I had to close with Chasity, this girl I cant even tolerate but it wasnt as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I'm just glad there will be no more drive thru and tarter sauce! However, I am gonna miss everyone there.

Why

I saw them out together and my heart dropped to the floor. Why does he hang out with everyone BUT me? Why am I not good enough for him? Am I not pretty enough? Smart enough? What is it gonna take for him to open his eyes? I thought we had developed at least some form of connection these past months. I've really grown to care about him a lot but he obvisouly doesnt care about me. I've had it, I can't sit around and be treated like this. I will never know why I'm not good enough for him but I think its his loss and not mine.

Karen's Gas Fund

Well Saturday I finally got off my lazy butt and went looking for a job. Had a few minor set backs but it all turned out well. Got all dressed up, looked good, and then decided i should finally check my oil like my dad has been suggesting for a while. Oil was on low, freaked out, called the first guy on my phone list, and then i was safely on my way to Johnson City. Was in the process of getting and filling out applications in that shopping center with Old Navy and all that good stuff in it when it started raining pretty hard, and of course I was wearing a white shirt. Chilled in the car texting and talking till the rain slowed down then was back on my way. Went to Phillys Subs, talked to Allie (one of my brothers) whose parents own the place and need to replace her when she goes off to Europe in a few weeks. So this morning I woke up got up early on my day off and was off to Johnson City for an interview with Phil. Interview went really good, Phil was extremely nice and kept getting more and more excited as he told about the place and showed me around. He said he wanted to hire, but first he needed to call and check out my references and would give me a call. Well by the time I had made it to the Ross parking lot for an interview, Phil called and asked me if i could start sooner than the 24th cause he wanted to go ahead and train me before school started. So, YAY i have a job! I'm excited and the store hours are awesome: Monday through Thursday they close at 9, Friday and Saturday at 10, and theyre closed on Sundays!! Of course I'll be off on Thursdays for Deltasig so now I know for sure what 2 days I'll be off and that will be easy on making plans. Im not gonna work a lot, 20 hours at the most. Before I went home, I stopped by the D's to break the news to Nicole. I felt bad that Im leaving a week earlier then what I told them but oh well. She was upset but really nice about it. So now Im gonna be driving to JC while gas prices are sky high and thats why Im starting a Karen Gas Fund. If you want to contribute just let me know!
