Last Night

Let me start at the beginning.

Yesterday started off horribly. My mom called and woke me up early, changing my plans completely. By doing so, she had me running very late. I would have been fine on time if I had just gone with my original plans, but they weren't good enough for her. So, I had to do it her way.

I ran up to her office to get the money that she forgot to leave me for my sisters birthday cake, then had to run to Best Buy. I was going to stop and get a nice coffee and bagel, but I couldn't even do that with the time frame that I had. In Best Buy, I couldn't find what my mom wanted me to get for my sister as a birthday present, so that took forever. Then, when I finally found what I was looking for, there was a long line to be cashed out. If there is a long line, and it is super busy, I think they should have more than one register open. After I finally got cashed out at Best Buy, by the most rude cashier ever, I dashed off to go all the way back towards home to pick up my sisters birthday cake. Now, if you haven't caught on yet, it was my sisters birthday yesterday. My sister is the biggest bitch when it is her birthday. So, even though the lady who made the cake said she could run it over to the restaurant, mom told her no and made me do it on a schedule that was near impossible. I finally got the cake over to the restaurant with no time to spare. In rushing to do all this, I forgot to return the DVD that I had rented, thus causing me to get charged for late fees. Awesome!

Finally, the party arrived. Dennis was planning on attending, but his sister worked late, and he couldn't. My mom got my sister a kitten for a present. Now if you know my sister at all, this was not a good idea. The party was a total drag. Not even our whole family showed up, so we're stuck in a room with all these family members, talking about the most insignificant topics. At least my cousin was there.

My cousin, Andrea, means the world to me, and is the one that actually understands why I feel the way I do about my family, and other things. She's the one I go to when I have a problem. Unfortunately, I haven't seen her all year, due to her being away at college. And, even more bad news, I will only be able to see her over the summer before she goes away to Kansas for two years! She is going to a college there for archeology. We decided that we had to hang out and do something after the party, since it's been so long. We went back to her place and she showed me all 600 pictures from her trip to Utah and Colorado. She was invited to go by her professor, to go on an archeological dig. They were able to go to a top secret naval base, only open to scientists! After we were done looking at the pictures we decided that, since Dennis couldn't come to the party, the three of us should do something so that the two of them could meet.

Dennis, of course, was tired because he spent the night at his sisters house the night before, so he got no sleep. This caused him to be slightly bitchy. We picked him up and went to Tops to pick up a book that M was letting me borrow. While there we decided that we would get a 12-pack of Bud Lite and go chill somewhere. Andrea bought the beer and we decided to go to Tusc. We just sat there probably from quarter to midnight until around two. It was so fun. We just sat talking and sipping beer while relaxing. By now Dennis had lightened up a bit. I got the official approval by my cousin.

Finally, my cousin decided she should get home. So, Dennis and I dropped her off at her place and Dennis ended up staying the night at my house. To be honest, I've never been so happy. We watched the movie "It's Complicated". I gave him a short back massage and we cuddled for a bit, I wanted him to never leave. After that, we went to sleep, only to wake up to mom screaming and my cat hating the new kitten.

My poor cat was hissing and growling at this new kitten all morning. She got so protective and possessive, as if she thought this kitten was going to take me away and replace her. I felt so bad. She wouldn't even come out from hiding for her favorite treats. That's when you know that something is really, really wrong. Mom went to work, sister went to school, and we just laid in bed relaxing. Until his phone went off.

A guy from California that Dennis fixed his computer for, would not leave him alone. On http://k0p.net it clearly states, when you pick a day and time that is best for you to have your computer fixed, that you must give Dennis 24 hours to process the request. This gives Dennis time to plan and schedule around the time and date at which you've chosen. This guy expected Dennis to fix his computer that day, during dinner time! He has no respect for time zones, us being three hours ahead of him. He was calling Dennis at one in the morning! And, he blew up both e-mail and phone expecting Dennis to just drop everything and do yet another thing on his computer. He was ignorant, rude, and impatient. People are so obnoxious!

I took Dennis home so he could fix this guys computer and came home to take a shower. After Dennis is done, I'm taking him to the bank to cash his check, and to the store to take that DVD back and pay the late fee. If he has time, I'm hoping that Dennis will try to fix my laptop after that. If not I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm going to try to pay him, even though he told me not to. If it were anyone else he would get paid, I should be no different. Therefore, I'm going to pay him.

We shall see.
