The Shit I Put Up With

So, I'm not happy. And the cause of that is multiple factors.

First, my aunt won't let me buy Xanifel. She says that he's utterly useless and that buying him is a waste of my money and her giving me an allowance. She says that if I continue to save up for him, she'll have no choice but to only send me to school with lunch money. Now, I plan to continue saving up for my baby in secret, but I'll admit that it's more than a little upsetting.

Second, I'm sick with something that I just can't seem to shake, but I've been sick, so I've come to expect that.

Third, my way of making money (selling my books to a used bookstore) has been terminated. All the bookstores in my area only give book credit, and it's kind of stupid. I mean, if I'm selling you my books, you think that I wantto get paid in sotre credit for other used books? No. Absolutely not. I want to be paid in cold hard cash. But apparently, I'll have to find a new medium of selling these books if I want to get rid of them for profit. And it'll be more footwork and more time out of my already busy schedule.

The upside to all of this is that I have a job interview/tryout for a lifeguard position at my local aquatic center this weekend. I hope that I get selected for the job because I really need to work this summer. Whether my aunt likes it or not, I'm buying my baby. Another upside is that I finally have my bank account all set up and running again, and it's connected to PayPal. Woohoo. So I think I may buy things for Xanifel and just not buy Xan until the summer when I can afford to pay for him with the money I earned working over the summer. But that means that I'll have to probably give my address as the college I'm going to. That scares the crap outta me. College. -Shivers-

Hmm... I've been talking to Ebly again. I don't know what to make of it. I love him, but I think we both want different things to come out of this. I want to forgive him for just leaving. Really I do. Bt I also want to be so, so mad at him for leaving and hurting me and Salem. Twice. I want to yell and scream at him and then hug him and make him swear to me that he'll never do it again. I'm afraid that he's going to leave. I can't let him come back if he leaves a third time.

Let's end on a happy note: I've been watching Sailor Moon, and I've also gotten more money, which is a very, very good thing. Tonight, in lieu of watching American Idol, I'm going to curl up with Pirates of the Caribbean and try to get my review done for the other blog. So yes: money, Sailor Moon, and Johnny Depp.

SPEAKING OF HIM: I'm watching Alice in Wonderland at midnight on Thursday, which means that a review of that movie will be along very quickly. I'm so excited!

L-O-V-E always,
Clarke
