Just Another Day

I am currently in my bed, it's 7:50 in the AM and holy goodness is it freezing outside, and also in the house my feet are frozen, and they're covered by socks, and my blankets.. I woke up about half an hour ago from just being uncomfortable.  It seems like that has been happening a lot lately, but due to what, I don't know.  I thought I had a relatively comfortable bed, but I guess not last night.  So I noticed a slight problem.  My family wrote down "pumpkin carving" on the calendar for today, but my someone special wont be here today.. and he really wanted to carve with  my family and myself.  But here's the dilemma:  my mom is going to the opera tomorrow, and my boyfriend is coming home tomorrow.  Not to mention that Lil Switz (a hometown polka restaurant that my Opa (grandpa) owned, my dad practically grew up in, my mom worked in, and my dad still frequently plays in a couple Sundays a month, and I practically grew up in there too...) might be giving it's last performance tomorrow night cause apparently the owners can't pay their bills for the place and all of it's clientele are literally dying.  (Only the 60-and-over year olds tend to go to this place cause they're the only people that know how to dance to and enjoy polka music, but the majority of them that grew up dancing to the music can't dance anymore cause of failed joints and what not, and also because there are a lot that are close to dying.. sad right? so that leaves the teeny-tiny-itsey-bitsey-almost-non-existent small number of people like me and my family that knows how to dance and actually appreciates that kind of music, which ultimately entails certain death for this restaurant..).  So between my mother going to the opera for how long, I really don't know, and the fact that my parents would like to see Lil Switz's possible last performance, there's probably no time at all for carving pumpkins.  Which means that it's pushed back to today and my boyfriend probably wont be around to do it with us, which is what he really wanted.  I feel like a horrible person, even though none of this is my fault.. double phail Haley..  


.....but speaking of pumpkin carvings, I was looking some up on google images these past couple of days and found some really cool, and not too difficult carving ideas.  And yes, I care to share  =)  Which one should I do?

In two days time it shall be Halloween! I will post up pictures of my ghostly, or rather, fairy adventures.. I am going to be Tinkerbell while my boyfriend is Peter Pan.  We made our own costumes and I will get some photos up of my Halloween for all to see =)  I hope that everyone has a fun October 31st this year!

Peace, love and all that jazz..

Pet Peeves

I keep thinking to myself, "Oh my goodness that pisses me off.. I wish he/she wouldn't do that/would stop that..." when someone does something that bugs me.. go figure, right? So basically a million gazillion things have been bugging me as of late. It turns out that my boyfriend is the one doing the vast majority of the work.. but I'll most definitely admit that it's not just pet peeves that are getting under my skin, it's the fact that I'm not used to living with someone who isn't family.  Aka, my boyfriend.  He has been living under the same roof and in the same room as me for the last three months and it's really starting to get to me.  I'm not used to it and I'm not used to him always being there. It's like dropping me in a vat of ice water.. I don't know how to react except for in a panicked-type way.. Like I told him a couple weeks ago, I am a chick, therefore I need space.  I can't always be attached to him at the hip, and it seems to upset him.. to the point where lately he has been saying things along the lines of, "why does it seem like you don't like me?"  Not to mention his little fits and spats about nothing important =/  I can use yesterday as an example:  So my boyfriend was putting on his Halloween costume because he had to leave for work and didn't really want to change there and take up the bathroom.  So there was a little problem where when he lifted up his arms (like to go into a handstand or something) his shirt would ride up and his boxer-briefs under his tights would show.  It wasn't that big of a deal but it bugged him to the point where we had to cut his sleeves a little down a few seams so it didn't do it so much.  But the shirt still rode up regardless.. so I offered him the option of wearing a pair of actual boxers and he flipped a b!tch and was incredibly rude to me for offering him the choice of putting something over top his junk to make him more comfortable.. so rude to the point where my mother almost stepped in to tell him to STFU.  That left me irked.  And then he threw a bit of a fit over my denying him some granola??  WTF..? He's just been acting so strangely and the fact that I'm practically constantly with him is not making things easier.  I hope this doesn't destroy our relationship.. 


On to the peeves.. 

• open mouth, loud chewing (he does it frequently and I don't have the heart to tell him about it)
• repeatedly asking "what's wrong?" (it feels like he asks me every single day about every single thing when I'm not responding in a "proper" way..)
• being loud while other parties of the house are sleeping. (Big no-no in my house and in my eyes.  If someone's sleeping and doesn't have a reason they need to be awake, let them sleep for as long as they can cause they'll generally need it.  He's so loud when it comes to being around people sleeping.. my brother even says that he can hear him in the mornings when he goes to get a bowl of cereal or something and hears every little thing he does... and the sinus rinses are so incredibly loud it's not even funny, the boy doesn't know how to be quiet with hardly anything, or doesn't register the fact that he's being loud)
• being a cuddle bug 24/7 (it feels like he's always all over me, like I stated above)

things just seem to be highly annoying to me as of late.. I don't know. I think it's just both of us being oversensitive.  But it's whatever.. I'll deal with it.
