Charter is extremely annoying

I have been trying to post a video of my roommate singing to my blog for the past hour, but my internet is being incredibly slow and it will not upload!! The point of this blog was going to be to tell you that we are making my roommate Allison tryout for American Idol, but with my internet being completely retarded I can't really prove how good she is so you will have to take my word for it until I can get somewhere with a better connection. I don't understand how Charter can be our only option in Athens! How many times a day do I have to reset my router for them to understand that our internet is simply not working correctly? It takes two minutes to pull up my email!! I feel like I am back in the days of dial-up, and I am not very happy about it!!

Wow...I feel old!

Last week I turned 23! Whoa... that sounds really old! Last night my friends and I went to celebrate my birthday. I decided that I wanted to go to Agua Linda which turned into a pretty memorable experience! My roommate got them to sing to me, but this was no normal "happy birthday to you"... it was the loud singing/shouting and the sombrero! I was thoroughly caught off guard and a little embarrassed at the same time, but it was fun! We were planning on going out, but the plans soon changed to dinner and a movie. It is very easy these days for us to just throw out the idea of going downtown. We usually try to convince ourselves that it is because we are getting too mature and growing out of that scene, but in reality it is because when we go out we don't know anyone and it makes us feel old!

This would be my luck!

Last weekend I went to a basketball at home and my boss's brother-in-law was there!! I went over to speak to him and we talked for a few minutes about what I was doing and what I wanted to do after I graduate. Finally, he said, "Did you know you called Dill's phone last week?" OH MY GOSH!! I thought I was going to die! I didn't know what to say and he started laughing! He told me that they had laughed about it all week!!! I was so embarrassed! I was really hoping that he would never know who it was, but that would never be my luck! At least he wasn't mad!!

Not a good way to start in the working world!

Of course as I said before, I am beginning to get stressed out about job hunting. Well today I did not make the greatest move along that journey!! I was calling some of my friends to remind them about a party my roommates and I are throwing on Saturday. My boss from the place I interned with this summer coincidently has the same name as one of my friends! I called my boss and proceeded to get agitated when he didn't know who I was because I thought it was my friend!!! I quickly hung up because I was making him irritated too!! I was MORTIFIED!!! So from this I learned another important lesson in getting ready for the job world... put people in your phone's contact list very descriptively!!
