I am sitting at work right now bored out of my mind. It's not even that I am unmotivated to be productive or that I don't want to do what needs to be done. I flat out have nothing to do! Can I tell you...this SUCKS! There is nothing I hate more than being bored. It is 3:43pm and I have been trying to amuse myself since about 2:30pm...not fun! I cannot read another Bumper Sticker on myspace...I have no desire to look around on facebook. Texting isn't even appealing at the moment...and Lord knows that's something that usually keeps me entertained. Don't get me wrong...I love working on the campus of the University of Kansas, I love working at KU Endowment, the people that I work with are great (except my looney boss)...but I hate that I am so bored so often. I feel like it is a double edged sword. I could find another job, but it would likely not be on campus or in any way affiliated with the University of Kansas...which would be sad. I can continue to try to entertain myself for hours on end and hope something comes up in another department...or I can write random meaningless blog entries and bore all of you with my boredom. Looks like blogging will be the winner for the time being.
As some of you already know my wonderful nieces Ashley and Megan came to visit this weekend. They came down Saturday and spent the night. I hope they had a blast. I think they both did...although, I'm not sure Megan would ever admit it. It's amazing how many thoughts and questions a couple of pre-teen/teen girls can have...especially Ashley. It was really interesting to talk to them and hear their perspectives on boys, family, life, and other randomness. If you are interested there are a ton of pictures on my myspace and facebook pages from the weekend. About the only thing you won't find is a picture of is my nails. Ashley bought nail polish when we were downtown and we watched a movie and painted our nails Saturday night. Let me help you with the mental picture...imagine a baby shower with pretty pinks and blues...now...imagine that exploding onto my nails. Yes, pretty pink and baby blue every other nail fingers and toes. Sexy...right?
My lease is up at the end of January or sometime in February, I can't remember for sure when. I have been thinking a lot about where I want to live. I love my little apartment for the most part. I would really like to have a washer and dryer. There has been a lot of turnover in our complex and they have had a few shady people start to move in. Aside from that I am currently making about three trips a week to Kansas City to see friends. Not only am I spending gas money to get there, but without fail I am spending money once I am there. I have come to the conclusion that I am spending about the same amount of money between gas and entertainment in Kansas City as I would be spending on fuel to drive to Lawrence to work everyday if I moved to Kansas City. All of this has been on my mind quite a bit lately. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about it. I would like to look around and explore my options. I have been thinking of looking in Edwardsville, Bonner (CW's suggestion...but IDK), Lenexa, possibly Eudora (but it's quite a ways from the KCK crowd, so I'm not sure about there either), and still in Lawrence of course. All I know is that I want to be close to friends and have a washer and dryer. I feel like all I do in Lawrence is work and grocery shop. Everything else is in KC.
With that...I look forward to a short week of work, evenings filled with basketball, a Thanksgiving with my family, shopping with Mom on Friday, the KU vs. MU game with Dad on Sat., and Nick getting back in town on Monday so hopefully next week we'll finally be able to hangout!!!
Love you all!
