bored bored bored

I've been so bored lately. I feel like all I do is work work WORK. Though this is obviously not true because my paycheck was only 75% of its normal amount this pay-period :-/ oh well.


The past few days have been hard. I've been sick, and I rarely get sick, so I'm miserable. My throat has been hurting and my ears have been stopped up. I can't hear out of one [or sometimes both] ear at all times. Thursday night the pain was unbearable, but Mom gave me some medicine and I began to feel better.


I came home on Thursday because of my brother and sister's swim meet. Little did I know, my grandparents were coming! I hadn't seen them in months, so that was exciting.


My brother had senior pictures that afternoon too. Mom had to set up chairs for the swim meet, so I went with Dad to help Grant with poses and stuff. Grant is so grown up. I can't believe it.


My favorite pictures were of him in his letter jacket, swim team shirt, and goggles. He was a pretty good sport too. He'd be really stoic and bored, but the photographer would say "smile!" and he would flash this gorgeous smile. *snap* and he was back to that stoic face. One photographer took a picture of him like that just for fun lol


We swam against the defending county champion swim team that night, and we only lost by 27 points when we were supposed to get annihilated. One of our coaches who decided not to swim this summer ended up swimming, which really helped our boys 15-18 relay. Grant had awesome times, though he lost his two best events to Jared. He came in second, which is still great, especially since he's only 16.


Afterwards, Grant and his friend Matthew wanted to go see Toy Story 3 at midnight, so I took them because Mom didn't want to take them and then have to pick them up. So I got to see it for free :] I also saw a preview for Voyage Of The Dawn Treader, and I can't wait to go see that! I love the Narnia series.


On Friday, I came back to Athens to take care of Ryleigh, whom Emily had been taking care of while I was gone, then my grandparents, mom, and sister came over to go to lunch at Peaches, which has amazing southern food. I think everyone really enjoyed it.


I had to work last night, and between my being sick and Loreanna being sick, it was a rough night. I'm not anticipating a good day today either. But we got out of there pretty quickly, so I came home, watched some TV, and went to bed.


Babbs moves in tomorrow, which is exciting. I hate being in the apartment all by myself. I think I'm most excited about having someone else to take care of the dog. I'm tired of being bitten and barked at and messed with all day. I thought I could handle taking care of Court and Ash's dog while they're gone for the summer, but I just can't do this anymore. If Babbs doesn't feel that she can do it either, then Ash is gonna have to come take Ryleigh or board her or something. I just can't deal with this anymore.
