soundtrack: esthero: country livin' (the world i know)

so i wrote this entry last night, yeah? and i posted it and nothing happened. i don't know where it disappeared to and i'm just going to consider it lost. i'm in the basement this morning, on the general computer. for some reason, to which i'll fully put the blame on win me, my laptop went blank. al is in the process of installing win xp and i have to wait since he's gone to work. if that doesn't work, i'm in big trouble cos i didn't back anything up... yes, i realize how stupid that is.
i picked up mom yesterday in the p.o.c (piece of crap) that al and i share (and i don't understand why al never drives the p.o.c and gets to drive mom's car... what's wrong with this picture?) 'it's hot in here,' she expressed, pulling down the window. mine was already down from the get-go. 'the car has no ac,' i replied. how many times have i told these people when i was sweating up a storm in my business suits, trying desperately to get to work before i had to turn back around and change. 'maybe you should get a new car,' she said. that would be nice, but where would the money come from? i'm looking at the next fove years down the line and i'm seeing that i'm not going to have that influx of cash. i'm just dealing with it.
it's funny: al and i never fight over who wants to use p.o.c., but when we start talking about who's going to keep it, we get into bitter arguements, offering excuses to pass the car to the other. timon says that he's not touching it. it's sad though... it has no ac, needs a serious paint job and now has a hole in the exaust...

so it looks like i'll be seeing the guard very soon. i accepted at nih and i start in july. i'm really excited about getting back in the lab; my hands are just itching. i'm very greatful for this oppertunity.

anyways, i have alot of stuff to keep me busy. i'm singing something for father's day service this weekend. what? i don't know yet, i'm still trying to figure out. i actually have to practice the violin; the music that the group is playing is a little bit more challenging to just go about and sight read through the performance. reading and writing, etc.

peace.
