Okay, so it's been almost a month since I last posted. I guess the car accident threw me for more of a loop than I realized. I've been really lax about staying in touch with people. I've been meaning to get together with a really good friend of mine, but every time he calls I'm in the middle of getting ready for work or actually being at work and I haven't called him back yet. He's called like four times in the past week. I totally suck!
Anyway, I'm moving again. This time it's to Lauderdale, MN. It's by the State Fair grounds. I'm gonna be sharing a room with the coolest woman on earth and our other roommate seems like she'll be pretty cool, too. She's good friends with the girl I'm sharing the room with. Even though I'm really excited about moving, it's still kinda scary. I kinda know the general area, but not at all compared with South Minneapolis. I'll also be taking two totally new busses to get to work. That's a little nerve wracking. But, it'll be good I think.
On a different note, I'm so tired of working. Well, not totally tired, but it's irritating that I have to interrupt a good day of relaxing and doing nothing to go to work. I mean, I know I gotta eat and pay rent and all, but c'mon! My co-workers are pretty cool, though. Also, work is never that dull. The other day (I wasn't working), my co-worker David had to close two hoursearly cuz two guys were brawling in the store. I work at Super America and, for those who aren't familiar with it, we have what's called a fountain drink machine. It's basically a pop machine like they have at McDonalds and Subway and such. Anyway, one guy was bashing the other guy's head into it. According to David there was blood all over it. Now, that's not a typical day by any means, but it is rare that we get a day where nothing happens. Usually it's just drunks getting rude and ornery or people getting pissed off at us for some reason or other and cussing us out. So...um...yeah.
Anyway, I'm finally working noon to 8pm. Hopefully there'll be no more 4pm to midnight shifts for me. I despise that shift. That's when people are the most ornery. I'm also really, really glad that I have the day off tomorrow. Granted, I can't sleep in cuz I have to be at the chiropractor at 10am, but I can always take a nap in the afternoon.
I found out that insurance will cover chiropractic appointments for a while. Amber has been going to the chiropractor since she was like 8 years old and so, since the accident, we've been going together. The guy's name is Kelly and he's one of my new best friends. :) I feel so great afterwards! I love it! Since going, I've only had like one headache. I felt one coming on last night, but it went away before it got really bad. Plus, I think it was just because I hadn't eaten since breakfast. The first time we went to see Kelly, he took x-rays of us both to see how much work had to be done. There's a certain way one's neck is supposed to curve......my neck was curved in the opposite direction. Yikes!
Well, that's all for now, folks. I gotta go eat breakfast and think about starting to get ready for work in a little bit. I'll try to be better about posting, but we'll see how that goes since I won't have a computer with internet for a while at the place I'm moving.
