Cutting people up is neato.

Crickets are yummy for my geckos.

Hamburger helper made with turkey and vegan meat substitute is yummy for me and Matthew.

Spiders are yummy for my kitties.

My insides kinda hurt. I think I've been drinking too much coffee. I can't help it, I've been in a funk lately. I mean, I'm perfectly fine, at least, I think I am, but everyone around me is constantly bugging me- "are you ok?" "what's wrong?" and coffee makes me hyper enough that they don't ask me.

The other day I walked with $73 after only having $330 in sales. Awesomeness. I even tipped out an extra $10. One lady gave me $18 on her $82 bill, but she had bought a $50 gift card, so she was tipping me almost twenty bucks for swipping a card. Awesomeness. And then there was this sweet Mexican lady and her 8 year old daughter. The woman didn't speak much English, so the daughter did most of the talking, but she was very nice and always said thank you and she let me practice my Spanish on her. They gave me $9 on their $22 bill.

Of course, the next day I walked with $67 after having over $600 in sales, so I guess it all evens out.

In 16 months I'm going to be a surgical technologist. That's kinda crazy. During school I'll help in a minimum of 140 surgical procedures. I'll also have to dissect a cat. :( I have to go buy some scrubs. I'm sad though, cuz the ST's wear ugly khaki scrubs. The RT's (respiratory techs wear maroon, which I like way better). Last night was an open house thingie to try to get people to enroll. I went, along with 5 other people already enrolled. It was kinda nice to meet some other people who are going to be in my class. Unsurprisingly, Hawaii has the highest average salary, so I've decided that I should move there. I mean, yes, it's also way more expensive to live there, but whatever. It's Hawaii!! The South (also unsurprisingly) has very low pay, so Matthew should be happy about that. I am not going to pay $30,000 to go to school so I can get a job that pays $14 an hour (that's the average in Mississippi or Alabama or something).

Craziness.

Matthew was mean to me last night. Before I went to the SJVC thing he's like "Hey! I have good news! What do you want more than anything?" and I"m like "I dunno Matthew, what's the news?" cuz I'm all impatient and not fun like that, and he's like "No, guess! What do you want more than anything in the world?" and I said "to go somewhere fun" and he said "Well, I have tomorrow off, so we should go somewhere! Actually, we could leave tonight and get a hotel room for tonight!" Yay! So I come home and I'm all "so where are we going?" and then he's like "Oh, I forgot, I'm getting my computers tomorrow (he ordered 3 $50 computers a couple days ago) so I need to be home when they get here."

Bastard. Getting my hopes up like that. It's kinda like when Dad said "Oh, we're gonna buy a Subaru and give you the Corolla!"

Everyone just likes to toy with my emotions.
