A Massive Update....

I can't believe that it's already almost July! The year is half way over already! Where did it go?! It's been quite a year so far and I know that it's not gonna be slowin' down any time soon, but fortunately, things seem to be looking up and this post will be on the positive tip!

The biggest news of the moment is that we finally got our apt in Waikiki!!! I never updated on the situation with NR, but since my last rant about him, things have calmed down and we've been able to see each others perspectives, BUT it's almost impossible to find a resolution with someone who is so irrational. NR is such an emotional rollercoaster that it's hard to deal with him. He finally came to an understanding that he can't do everything with us every moment and we came to the understanding that he's out here all by himself and that we need to be more considerate, but I guess by trying to show him that he needs to be more independent and make some friends we shut him out and I guess tough love doesn't really work with him. After the whole reconciliation thing, I thought things would get better, which they did, but not completely. NR when he is sober is slightly rational... when he is a little tipsy he is slightly entertaining.... and when he is full on, dead ass drunk he is a creepy, emotionally unstable ticking timebomb! Tick, Tick... BOOM! A typical night with NR and Mitch drinking starts out like you would imagine any binge drinking frat party, minus the skanky hoes and keg stands, and ends up hours later with NR stomping off like an elephant to his room and slamming the door behind him b/c of something Mitch said or did to light the fuse to his timebomb.

I've said this before, NR is a genuinely nice person, but I think due to his arrested development and inability to connect with the real world, I'm over him. I'm so sick of his creepy nature and his addiction to mac 'n cheese. About a month or so ago he had a breakdown with Mitch and confessed to him that he was deciding to move back to Georgia...

****Excuse me while I do my happy dance!!!***

and he was actually apologizing because he felt that he was leaving us hanging and felt bad to spring this on us... little did he know that we have been looking for one bedroom apts in Waiks for months!!! But he doesn't need to know that... So as things have turned out, Mitch, Levi and I got our apt in Waiks and now NR is not sure if he's going to move back to Georgia b/c he can't get his job back and so I don't know if he was hoping to live with us again (who knows why he would even want to) but he sure pitched a fit when we told him we were looking at apts the other day. Crazy I tell ya!

But enough of him... our new apt is in the heart of Waikiki and is a studio! It's alot smaller than I wanted, but I like it! It's right next to Food Pantry which is awesome because Beard Papa's is in Food Pantry and they have bomb cream puffs! It's a couple of blocks away from my job so I can walk to work without having to worry about leaving an hour before and having to find parking and using up all my gas! Gas is $4.33 over here and going up every day! So I won't have to worry about any car issues and we can walk to wherever we wanna go and I won't have to worry about DUI's for once... and I think that this is just what we need to eleviate some unnecessary stress. One thing that the apt doesn't have that I've never been without is a bathtub! I take at least one bath a day so I don't know how I'll live without one, but I'm sure I'll manage. Maybe by the time our lease is up there we'll get a bigger place with a tub, but we'll see how it goes.

***Cut to me shaking like a saltshaker in a dark corner going through tub withdrawal***

So my latest obsession these days is BOOZE CRUISE!!! You go out on a boat and you sail around Waiks/Diamond Head and it's all you can drink!!! And you might see sea turtles, dolphins and flying fish!!! I've been on two cruises so far and I've seen sea turtles and dolphins, but haven't seen the flying fish yet... but yeah, you drink as much as you want and it's super relaxing and the best part is that it's only $25!!! The first time I went, I went with my besties Liz and Michelle and then I went again this past Tuesday with Liz and Mitch and it's so much fun! My justification for going every chance I get is that I can't afford to not go! I finally got to meet Mitch's friend from way back in the day when they both lived in Colorado, Josh, but I met him AFTER the cruise so I was a bit drunk and done so maybe it wasn't the best first impression and I know it's lame to use being drunk as an excuse for anything, but it's all I got! Love you Josh!

What's next... I still haven't gotten my car back from the shop since my accident... well, I did get it yesterday, but it's still making a funny whistling sound so we had to take it back today so I'm still in my rental which is a gas guzzling whore, but hopefully I'll get my baby back soon.

Work has been going okay. Nothing too exciting, but we did have about 40,000 kids in town for a soccer tournament so that was cool, but they left this week so things are back to normal I guess. As always, management is insane as ever and more and more ppl have quit, but I'm not complaining because that just means bigger sections and more shifts for me! I'm seeing dolla signs! Ok not really.

The fourth of July is right around the corner and Nina and Haley were supposed to be coming, but it got postponed so maybe they'll be here in September. I think they should come for Christmas time, but I guess that's not too realistic! he he I really wanna spend Christmas at the beach, opening my presents and sipping on a Lava Flow! Mitch will be working all day from 8am-midnight at Bayfest so I'm sure I'll be spending some time down there on the fourth, but otherwise I don't know what I'm doing. Probably end up on a booze cruise! (if i'm lucky)

So that's my "massive update" for the moment... I leave you with this vid I found on youtube of everyone's favorite cokewhore... Lindsay Lesbohan!!!
