I wish, I wish, I wish

Remember that R. Kelly song? Dang I stay reminiscing on my blog! HAHA!

I wish life was like my blog and I could delete the things that happen when I want to forget about them. Wouldn't that be cool? Anyway ... just a random thought. I'm feeling a little restless today (even though I took a 2-hour nap.) My mind is racing and I don't have any desire to stare at the idiot box all day ... It's really sad I kept flipping to the same channels hoping that something would be on 2 seconds after I just looked at that channel. The general anxiety is getting to me and causing me to wake up really early in the morning (like before sunrise) and turn off the TV so that my mind can wander and ponder life. I hope there are no TVs in my apartment in London. I hate the idiot box because I just can't stand the mind-numbing feeling like I should be doing something but I ... can't ... move ... my finger ... from ... the ... remote.

Yesterday I went to Irvine with Tawny. She had to take care of some business at UCI. Then we stopped at Westminster Mall and I kind of got us lost but we made it. OOPS! I bought some jeans at AE and a skirt at this cute little store called portrait ... For a grand total of 30 bucks! YEA!!!! GO LAUREN!!! Tawny got me these speakers I wanted from Radio Shack as a birthday gift and then we had to stop for Bite Size cookies before we left ... Mmmm! Lovin' That! Then we I got back home, my mom was there and I told her that she should take me with her to work so she was like "OK" (This is against company policy) so I changed into clothes that were a little more profesional than cropped pants and an "I heart Bazooka" T-Shirt, grabbed my knitting and sat diagonal rom my mommy for the rest of the day. She was really busy so I just listened to my music and knitted. One nosy ass lady came over to the cubicle on the other side of me and wanted to know if Linda (the lady's desk that I was sitting at) had been replaced. I laughed to myself because she thought I couldn't hear her. The lady she was talking to was like "No. Linda's out for the day. That's Paula's daughter. I'm about to give her some work to do in a minute." ME! WORK! Think again sister. Yeah ... the people my mom works with are crazy. I don't think I would want an office job. It gets really eerily quiet a lot. scary quiet if you ask me. After work (haha) me and my mom took off for her Primerica meeting in Arcadia. We got there early because she got to be in the Carpool lane with me in the car. So we stopped at this cyber cafe and then she took me to In-N-Out so I could eat a little dinner. I've been to her Thursday night meetings before and contemplated sitting in the car but I went on in so my mom wouldn't be wanking at me when she got back. I was pretty tired when I got home and knocked out at 1030 or so. It was great how I didn't watch TV or my computer screen all day.

I'm working on Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella. It's funny but I've barely put a dent in it due to the SOS (Spacing Out Syndrome) I seem to have acquired over the course of this summer.

PEACE!
