So anyway, I woke up somewhere around noon when my mom brought my phone in ringing. It's on high and vibrate so when it rings it RRRRRRINGS! Haha. She brought it in and I looked at the caller ID and it was some area code that I didn't know so I didn't answer but it made me wonder where it was from which is the only reason that I got out of bed. Haha. Otherwise I wouldn't have woken up just then. But I did and I hopped out of bed and got online to check the area code and where it was from. Turned out to be somwehere in Sacramento, CA. They called back later but, again, didn't leave a message. I'm thinking it was one of those places again, that when you put something online-- and you say it's okay to get the information, they call and offer special deals. They did that a while ago with this other area code and number. They have NOT stopped calling it's really annoying. But oh well. I'll just not answer. Blah!!!!!
I cleaned my bathroom today. My make up has been in about eight different bags and has not been at all organized. It's been eye shadows, blushes, concealers, lipsticks and everything all in one. So I got tired of the mess around here and I decided that instead of cleaning THIS area by the computer or in teh kitchen I'd clean my bathroom. So I went thorough all of the make up that I dont use or haven't used in a year. Threw out all the shower gels I haven't used in about a year and stuff... lotions that are half or less than half full that I never use for anything. Face products that are astringent and I know are bad for your face because they dry it out. I actually ended up with only one little box of make up which was great! And by doing that I also figured out how little make up I really wear which was really surprising! Because I put my essentials-- what I wear every day and what my daily routine is in the little drawer by my sink and it turned out ot be under-eye concealer, loose powder, mascara and blush! Compared to the under-eye concealer, liquid face concealer, blush, powder, eye liner, two shades of eye shadows, mascara, brow gel, lip liner, lipstick and lip gloss that a lot of girls wear that's pretty good! Hehe. Not quite all natural but... half way there! it felt nice to clean out underneath my sink, to just clean the bathroom. I had planned on cleaning out the shower when I hopped in there tonight but my mom decided to attempt to do her own personal plumbing job in my bathroom and she broke my sink and is now trying to fix it. I wish she just would calla plumber. It doesn't cost us-- it costs the aprtment manager so what is the big deal? She always uses the excuse "The house isn't clean and it will be ambarassing. We have to clean before we call them." So we clean instead of doing fun stuff and because she has so much crap, it gets dirty within two days becuase sh ebrings her craft stuff into the nice clean living room to watch some TV and then it stays out here and just-- ahh! It's so terrible. I talk about her like she's the adolescent or the person that is needing to be taken care of and in a way it's true but I'm not the one in control. I guess I'm just a bit more practical than she is at times.
Jumping from one subject to another, my friend Kristine and I were talking the other day and she was thinking about taking the opportunity for these tickets to see "A New Day...". A couple of front row seats and then a couple elsewhere and such. She asked if I coud find a way there and I said I didn't know but I'd have to think about it. She wasn't sure if she was going to go but she told me that basically if I found a way out there the room woudl be taken care of. I coudl just stay with her... eat with them and that since she needed to buy a cheap ticket for her two kids anyhow, I could sit front row with her and have a child sit on my lap. But I didn't think she'd really end up going but she did. So it came down to it and I can't go. I'm so bummed out. I was really terribly excited about meeting her and then it turned out that she is going on Wednesday to Las Vegas and I have no way out there. So I won't be going. I need to face that reality. I can't go. I have something like $5 in my bank account right now... there just is no way. Great opportunity but it just is not possible. It's so sad.
I have other obligations though. I have to work and I have to work my ASS off because Kelly is coming out in July and I need to have some money to do things with her. I know that we could do this for a really cheap price and everything... we'll figure something out and it will be fine. And really I don't need any souvenirs from Las Vegas so it's not really a problem at all. But I DO need to pay Kelly the $244.50 for the ticket and also I need to buy a dress for Vegas. Hopefully the one that I want will be on sale at Windsor by July when Kelly comes out here becauseI know what kind of dress I want. I love these few dresses that they have there but they're over $100 and stuff so I mean.... I just... need to have enough money. I may be able to get an advance from Nicole at that time but we'll have to see. I'm really grateful that I'll have just paid my phone bill when Kelly comes out here and it's a lot smaller of a bill so I won't have to worry about that. Maybe if I figured out a little game plan soon I'd feel a lot better and did an estimation of how much it was gonna' cost to do all that we wanted to do.
I know that she really wants to go to Disneyland and I want to take her there. it's just relatively expensive. I mean-- it is REALLY expensive! It's $42 for one day's admission into one of the parks. You can choose either Disneyland of California Adventure. Kelly wants to go to Disneyland which I'm glad about because I have absolutely no interest in California Adventure. Must be the kid at heart. But I'm just trying to find a way to keep it down money wise. I'll figure something out and I know we'll have a kick ass time!
The number of people that I'm meeting in Las Vegas is shrinking and I'm a bit grateful. It will be Sunny, Brittany Jones, me and Kelly all hanging out together. Then there are Brittany Randolph, Kim and her friend Amber, Meagan and Sarah. Me and my little group will wait at Céline's garage for the 7th, 8th and 9th. Kelly and I and Brittany might wait the 10th as well but we're not sure. I don't know but we'll have to see about it all. We know that we're going to have fun, though. We have improv. games planned. An acting one, a musical one, story-telling and just things like that so it will be like a little party. Haha. Maybe Kelly and I should buy some snacks and we'll have a little mini-party waiting for Céline. That would be so cute!
"What Women Want" is on TV right now and I LOVE that movie. It's one of my favorite movies and I just love Helen Hunt. She has been one of my favorite actresses for a long time... I just love her acting. She's really great! And of course Mel Gibson doesn't hurt in a movie either. Haha!
Hmm... well I'm off to get ready for work tomorrow. I am working for a friend of my employer's. They are going to Disneyland tomorrow and are paying my way in, they will probably be paying for my food, then on top of that I am getting paid. I'm getting pait ot have fun in one of the most "fun" places in teh world with a 4 year old little girl and a 2 year old little boy! I'm a little nervous because I don't know the family and I don't know their expectations from their children. I have been with Owen, Trevor and their parents for about 2 years now and one as a part time nanny and I am comfortable with them because I know how the parents discipline and treat their children. What they expect from them in their behavior and their speech and actions and how I treat them but this family could be completely different! I'm sure that it will be fine. I just get nervous with new families. For all that I know I might just end up being one of those people that follows the family around all day to just play with the kids in a long line and make sure that things are fine-- just for the smaller things. Obviously with two parents there they're not going to be expecting me to take care of the kids 24/7 because they're going to be having fun with their kids. So I mean it's not.... going ot be bad. Just a little neve wracking at first. A 4 year old little girl and a 2 year old little boy! Oh the fun! Haha.
Ah there is so much that I am thinking about. OK. I need my shower.
Good night!
