Need To Grow Up.

Boyfriends can be dumb sometimes. Let me rephrase that. Boyfriends are dumb A LOT of the time. I'm not really comfortable talking about my current relationship on here, but I'm not quite in the mood for yelling/ranting at someone through the phone. To me (forgive me if it sounds extremely selfish -- I'm often quite the selfish person) if a guy tells you that he'll do anything for you to make you happy then quite literally a few minutes later complain of a sore throat and refuse to just go SIT IN A CAR AT THE TOP OF A HILL AND JUST TALK, do I not have the right to be disappointed? Just a little?? I'm almost positive this is the ovulating hormones talking, but I just can't help it! Whew. Deep breaths. Maybe I'm just stressed that I have an 8 hour shift on Saturday that starts at 11 AM and ends at 7 PM.  Pretty sure that would give anyone stress. That shift is day killing. Seriously. It's not even Friday yet and I already consider my Saturda

Finally got a picture for Grandma's grave marker. We're planning on flying my grandpa's remains here from the Philippines.  I don't know when; I mean, it took us this long to finally finish the grave marker. We'll just have to see, I guess...

Father's Day. To someone whose dad doesn't act, well, like a dad, this day is one of the worst of the year.  It's extremely difficult to work up any gratitude, happy thoughts, let alone love for someone who's treated you worse than the shoe biting family pet. I mean, is it wrong to not want to take part in celebrating great dads all over the world? Especially if yours would rather get wasted drinking than spend any time with you?
