| Little Known Pennsylvania State Law |

Just incase you didn't know Pennsylvania Law dictates that wage reimbursment can not exceed $1,000.00 a month. What this means to me: i will only receive a check for 1,000.00 a month eventhough i make more then that.
I saw my doctor today and she won't release me to go back to work because i can't lift my legs when i sit. She's going to re-evaluate me in a week. this is bullshit. i'm not a professional cyclist and i don't need to lift my legs to work.
life just loves throwing me curveballs. |

| The Gates |
[Feb. 28th, 2008|04:11 pm] |
In 2005 i had the opportunity to travel to New York City to see Cristo and Jeanne-Claude's The Gates. I turned down this chance because I chose to "take a day off" instead. My art classes were cancelled due to this trip so if i didnt go to new york it meant i would have a free day without school. i look back at that decision with disgust. i was so immature and SELFISH to chose a day of most likely sitting around watching tv over an experience i could share with my grandchildren. I'm sitting at home today watching a documentry about how the Gates came to be. All the struggles the artists went through to bring their vision to life. i am at the verge of tears because i missed out of an experience of a lifetime.

| My So Called Life.... |
[Feb. 26th, 2008|12:29 pm] |
i've been watching My So Called Life for the past few days. its strange because i remember watching this show when it was on the air and thinking how old and cool Angela, Ricky and Rayanne looked. They were so much older then me and so cool--i mean Ricky was gay and hung out in the girls bathroom....wow. Now as i sit here and watch episodes that i fuzzy memories of i think-oh my god they are so young. i can't believe how young these kids are. what happened? when did i become so old and they become so young? they're going to school dances and having crushes while i'm married and concerned whether i should make chicken for dinner or pasta. where have the years gone? how many people have touched my life and so many have passed through it. how many times have i said "we'll be friends forever" and today i couldn't even tell you what state they live in. its depressing thinking of how much i'm missing out by not making a better effort to keep people in my life. i know thats how life is. you graduate highschool and say you will always keep your friends that you had in highschool forever. not true. you graduate college and say you will always keep your college friends forever. not true. what is it that makes us grow apart? are we too busy or just too lazy to keep up? ofcouse there's also that select group of people that you tell that you can no longer keep a friendship with because of various reasons that all boil down to they are toxic to you.i had many a toxic friendship in the past and they are painful. i hope to live the rest of my days without having to feel that pain ever again. |

i decided to update my livejournal account but i haven't looked at it in so long and it really is a great way to keep intouch(that is if anyone still uses it). i've been very lonely lately and i don't know how to fix that. I've been out of work since the accident and my days are long and painful. I have yet another Dr visit tonight and my physical therapy appointment. Mike is calling the mechanic today to see if the truck is close to being finished since its been almost a month now. i guess its a good thing that i've been unable to work or drive because its saving us alot of money by not needing a rental car.::trying to by optimistic in a total shit situation:: well i should be going...i have a very busy day ahead of me. i have to take more painkillers and then watch disc 3 of my so called life. more later... |

eek. i'm not dead....i'm just busy and poor. we finally got internet so now maybe i'll be able to keep up on my lj and whatnot. between wedding plans and fixing up the house i have been running myself ragged but once those two things are accomplished i'll feel much better and hopefully have some time for myself to just relax. i'm going to get into my painting cloths and work on my powder room....you know you have no life when you actually have assigned outfits to paint in. |

i had a horrible dream last night. I dreamt that my mom said that i was too fat to wear my dress at the wedding so i had to wear a t-shirt over it. I was so embarassed that i had to wear a t-shirt that i ran away to get away from everyone so i could figure out something else to wear besides this Journey T-shirt...thats right...the T-shirt was for the band Journey. So i ran away to find something else and the i saw debbie lutz and she told me that we could get a white body suit like the ones they wear for figure skating so her and her friend ran out and got me that and i put it on and i was ready to go to my wedding and then i saw mike and he said that i took too long and that everyone left. and i said to him that i was all ready and i wanted to get married and he told me it was too late.
i think its too early to be having wedding nightmares. i guess this is incentive to lose the 30 lbs that my mom has instructed me has to come off by november. |

| mother-in-law question |
[Aug. 22nd, 2006|08:51 am] |
I need your opinions because i think i am right in the following situation but i want to make sure. I planned on taking my bridesmaids out on August 20th to look for dresses. My future mother in law had expressed interest in going with us. I told her (very nicely might i add) that this day was for me and the girls in the wedding but when there will be other things she can come with me to do later. I also told her i would bring her to look at my dress when i decided on one. so that was the end of that....or so i thought. a week later mike started asking me why his mom couldn't go with us. and i told him it was because this was a day for just me and the girls. long story short she was "personally hurt" that she wasn't allowed to come with us to pick out the bridesmaid dresses while my own mother wasn't even there. so then august 20th rolls around and mike takes his parents to a phillies game for the day and i take the girls out for dresses. his mother doesn't talk to anyone the whole day and sits and cries at the phillies game. then when i go over to see them when they get home she completely ignores me and only mutters a hello and goodbye. so now last night mike's dad approached him and asked if he was going to smooth things over with his mother. Mike askedhis dad why his mom was mad at him and his dad said she wasn't made at mike she was upset with me. so then mike comes back to our house and says the i've gotten my way and his mother didn't come with us but now i have to go over there and say i was wrong and apologize to her for leaving her out. needless to say mike and i then get it a huge argument.
i don't think i have to apologize. i did nothing wrong. she knew from day one that she was not invited to look for the girls dresses and she persisted to make it known that she wanted to go. My own mother was not there that day and she knew she wasn't invited and she was ok with that because this was a day with my girls but his mother can't accept that. now not only has she pissed me off she's making mike stuck in the middle of all this and its causing us to be at odds with eachother. mike told me i have to go over and see his mom tomorrow{today} and say i was wrong. i have no intentions of doing anything of the sort. i think she needs to get over herself because this is uncalled for.
am i being bridezilla or am i right? |

we bought a house*.
we're officially in debt forever**.
*house meaning all brick townhome that hasn't been renovated since my mom was a teenager and the previous owners pretty much used it to roll around in their own filth.
**lucky for us the previous owners left a fake fikus plant in the corner of the living room. All that debt is oviously worth it since i now have a fake plant in my living room that i have to dust
did i mention
