NOT the same shit!!!

So these past few days have been GOOD to me!!

Thursday night I went to the Nuggets game and ended up winning the King Soopers gift card by playing Price Is Right AGAIN! That's right, another $100 of free groceries! The game went into overtime and we won in a very exciting finale. It was the first game I've ever seen go into overtime in person, so I was pretty amped. The game was televised so it didn't even start until 8:30pm. Needless to say, by the time I got home I was exhausted!


Friday while at work, I got a call to interview for a new job!! It's a phone interview first and then, if they like me, I'll go on for a face to face interview. It would be more pay and that would be a very very good thing.

Finally, and this is the MOST exciting part, yesterday I found out my roommates are moving out!!! The one across the hall in the master bedroom, is moving out at the end of the month and I'm moving into his room!! I'll have a room twice the size I have now, my own bathroom, a walk in closet and my own little balcolny! I'm rediculously excited! The other roommate, who I currently share a nasty bathroom with, is leaving as soon as he can find someone to take over his lease. If he can't find someone, he'll be leaving the 15th of June (beware the ides of June.....!! lol). I can't wait to not share a bathroom with him. It's pretty bad when you have to put a post-it note up on the door frame that says "Please Flush" so that he remembers to do so... what is he like 5 years old??? Anyway... I won't have to deal with that anymore!

The best part is, my rent is going up $25 since I'll have the master bedroom, but if I get this new job, $25 isn't nearly what I would be paying if I moved out and found a place by myself. This way, I'll be able to SAVE some money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. I'll be able to save for a while and when my lease is up, then I'll be able to move out on my own with a cushion :).

I hope I get this new job, for real real, not for play play.

On another note, my dad ran the Arizona Rock and Roll Marathon today!! He finished in 4:12: 18. Good job Dad!!! He wanted to finish in under 4 hours, but HELLO!! he ran a whole marathon, I think that's awesome enough!

Well I'm off to do some errands and then to the chuch to help set up some lights. After that football and chillin!

That's from last week... not bad eh?

Groceries and Toilet paper rolls

Ahhh... Groceries. There are few things in life that are as sweet as looking in your cabinets and having OPTIONS!!! Before today my choices looked something like: should I eat rice, instant potatoes, mac and cheese, top roman, or... a can of gravy. Now, thanks to my monthly cash bonus, I have groceries! For the next week I'll have my pick of different types of hot pockes, lean cuisines, stew (which is in the crockpot right now!), or any other many exciting things that now grace my kitchen. The only thing I don't like about grocery shopping is "the stalker". You know who it is, it might even be you. There you are, minding your own business in the cereal isle, and somone stops right next to you like they want the exact same cearel you do. You exchange side glances, maybe even the "what's up" head nod and one of you moves on. Before you know it, that same person is right next to you while your deciding what type of pasta sauce you want. Now it's just weird. By the time you get to the frozen section this guy is my arch rival. There's no way I'm moving my cart so he can get into the glass door next to me. Now it's a race to the register, who can get out first?? Luckily I am a checkout PRO! The ladies at the register love me. I put all my fresh stuff together, meat together, frozen together, boxes and cans together. This allows me to win every time. What is up with that guy???

On a random note, last weekend I went camping. I left on Thursday and came back Sunday evening. It was lovely and wonderful and fun, but when I came home the toilet paper holder in my bathroom was gone. I looked all over thinking that my roommate dropped it and was to lazy to pick it up (trust me, not a stretch). Maybe he trew it away with the last empty roll... nope, not in the trash... hmmmm..... So I don't see my roommate often, so today I finally see him and I ask him, dude, where's the toilet paper holder?? His response: Oh, It's in my car. YOUR CAR?? WTF?? I didn't even want to ask why it was in his car.

I hate my roommates...just in case I didn't mention it here before....
