Just Venting...

I completed that background check packet tonight... it was crazy detailed! The thing I didn't like most about it was all of the debt questions. I haven't worked since last April, Yes - a whole year. Because I haven't worked, I also haven't paid on any bills.... at ALL. Now, I know that eff's up my credit, but I have no money. I haven't even been in contact with two of the four things I owe on for a while, so I had none of the information the packet was asking.... so I just guesstimated. They are going to do a credit check, which I (my mom) had to pay $20 for, and I know they are going to get all of the information. I also know that they ask me for the information in order to see if I lie or not... I am just nervous. I don't want them to NOT interview me/hire me because I owe money and have like a $20,000 student loan and haven't paid them for a year. I really would have paid them if I had money and a job... and if they hired me then I would start paying again - ESPECIALLY if I got hired for this job with the county as a dispatcher. I think it's good that they check credit and stuff to see how responsible people are, but they shouldn't hold it against you if you couldn't help it.... UGH! I will be really sad if I don't get at least an interview because of my effing debt :(

Just a few pictures from my trip to Austin...

**Pics are in reverse order and I don't feel like moving them around :D**

This was right before I left :(

We went to the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum - here we're waiting to watch Under the Sea 3D at the IMAX theater.... we loved our glasses!

This is us holding hands at the Star of Texas movie.

Jeremy and his bandmates practicing.

I thought I took really awesome action shots... When I get better and have better lenses, they won't be so blurry LOL!

Here is crowd at the stadium for the Rangers vs. Royals game... I was rooting for the Royals, and they won 12-3 :D

Another action shot... my friend Adrianna says he's De Jesus and he's hot LOL

Neal McCoy sang the National Anthem

This sums up the look on Jeremy and I's faces as his dad helped his mom navigate our way to Arlington :D (we just kept our lips zipped!)

This is Frida ... she's a great dog!

Jeremy loves Frida because she doesn't try to bite people like their old dog, Jake, did.
And that's it... I have a ton of pictures... but I don't feel like putting them all on here LOL I'm going back up May 13th for 2 weeks. I'll be house/dog sitting for Jeremy's parents. I'm hoping to have news on a job too.... We'll see!

Back Again

I had a wonderful time with Jeremy ... it was definitely an experience being on my first road trip with his parents but it was not horrible. The Rangers' game was awesome - the Royal's kicked their asses! YAY Royals! I actually cheered for both teams... I didn't wanna get killed LOL!


I had a ton of fun just being with Jeremy, figuring out that I'd love for there NOT to be a third person when I move in with him... Jill, the new roomie, is alright... but I don't think I can be Miss Nice Girlfriend of the Roomie much longer when I am playing Super Mario Galaxy, or even just the Wii, and she wants to sit there with me and tell me things and chit chat. I don't mind chit chatting at all... but in the 4 or 5 convo's I've had with her, she's revealed more than I'd ever thought, and she's already repeated herself. At least it's working out so far and she's not like Jeremy's past roomies. I also look forward to taking over the huge closet in my future bedroom, and not having to sleep in a double bed ;-) I'm really spoiled with my queen bed, all to myself!


I took a few pics... they came out good. I'll post them soon... but it's going on 4am and I am going to go lie down. Oh, speaking of pictures... Jeremy (love you babe!) burned 21 GB worth of pictures onto DVD's from my laptop!!! 21!!! I need to watch it now LOL. But, as usual, my sweet lil' geek took care of me and my computer :) He's quite handy to have around.... and I hope he's around for a really long time :)


Hugs!
Adriana

I am so excited to be going back to Austin! I really hate not being with Jeremy.... We both have a hard time sleeping without the other one beside us :-(

Guess who's back.....

.........I AM!

Not that I'm thrilled about it, but I did miss my parents and my kitties. The down side, though, is that now I miss Jeremy again :( Oh well... I'm going back up in May to house sit for the in-law's and dog sit. They just got a new dog, she's probably less than a year old. She is a Basenji named Frida. They don't think she will be adjusted enough, come May, to be in the house alone... she was in a bad home and then in a shelter for a week, but she has some issues. I would either stay at their house, or take Frida to Jeremy's... but if his new roomie, Jill, and her two cats are still living there, then I would probably stay at their house in Buda.

Here is a picture of Frida trying to say Hi to their cat Scarlett.



Jeremy was practicing his guitar one evening and I was sitting up in his room reading/listening to him and I decided to bust out my camera since I hadn't taken any pictures at all... Here are some of the resulting photos :)




His guitar photographs so well.... I started to get all artsy hahaha!


His tattoo and the emblem on his guitar looked really cool together, I thought.

Jammin' away :)

Ain't he cute!? Note, also, my makeup bag on top of his speaker LOL!

This is what he sees on top of his television in his bedroom every night :D (minus the bag of Cadbury mini eggs... I added those, and they are no longer there ;)



Wednesday we got up and went to his parent's house for dinner 'round 6pm.


Charmin' ain't he? ;)


I shoulda had some color on my lips, but it would've come off when we ate anyhow :D



The next few days we did some driving around..... and I, of course, took pictures !!!
We filled the boot....


We helped out Jerry's kids!
We passed by some Austin landmark things.... the Austin Motel (it looks awesome all lit up at night)

We went to eat at our favorite place.... back before he and I got together, he took me and 2 friends to eat here... so it's our little tradition to go :)


We saw the Amy's ice cream van....

He had band practice with his new group.... Spitting Angels.

That's Ian, and Shadow (don't know his real name) .... they seem like okay guys.

Took pictures of downtown....

The University of Texas tower and stadium.....

He was driving me up North to see if they had these shoes that I wanted at Academy.....

One night... there were three Dell computer towers sitting on the side of the road in front of a house n Jeremy picked one up and after work he went into geek mode and tried to get it working......

The next night... he picked up a second one and it wasn't working 100% either.... he made a sad face for me :)

I sat with him and pretended to play his bass guitar while he was being a geek..... then I got artsy..... notice that they DID have my shoes at Academy!!! :D

I love taking fanciful pictures LOL

This is how Sugar welcomed me home last night.

What I didn't get pictures of was of how bored I got... and how I started to clean his room! I got most of the trash out.... Oh! I bought new pillows the second day because after my first night I had a creak in my neck :( He loved having new pillows. So I got the trash out, I gathered his clothes.... I didn't dust or vacuum, but I did do his laundry LMAO! I also managed to get him to go through his clothes and get rid of 2 trash bags full of clothes, which went to the Salvation Army :) I felt productive and kinda Susie Homemaker-ish.

It's weird being back home.... LOL and mom even said it was weird coming home and me being there... she said she had just gotten used to me being gone! Too funny! I had just gotten used to being with Jeremy every day :)

I cannot wait to go back up in May, if I haven't found a job before then. I was surprised... one conversation I had with my dad he asked if I had dropped off an application and was telling me I shouldn't wait and I should try to get interview's set up. I don't know if he was sincere... but I give him kudos for making the effort! Major kudos ;)

I will NEVER again.... with y'all as my witnesses....... go six months, or even three, without seeing my Jeremy!!!
