FIVE MORE DAYS!

Oh boy, I had quite a day yesterday. I woke up at 6:55am, went into the bathroom for my nice hot shower to help me wake up...and the water was icy cold. No heat... My hair was crazy, so I had to do something about it. I ended up washing it in freezing water...not a good way to begin my morning! So I dealt with it and headed to an elementary school in town to teach a science lesson to a class that I had not prepared for. My group and I taught the lesson, and it actually went really well. I really enjoyed it.
After that, I went and got some coffee and headed in to work. I went in and worked for about 5 hours...then the drive home...and work at my job here in town. Luckily, my friend Michael was working, so it was a nice night. Unfortunately, this weird old lady was working, and she kept saying the weirdest stuff! It was totally bizarre and Michael kept giving me these looks like, "Who IS this lady?!?"
So I went home, after a 14 hour day and basically passed out.

This morning I woke up early to go to get to the bank and deposit some money (mom still has not given me her's and Alex's phone bill money from last month...kind of frustrating!). I then headed off for Justin and Jenna's so Justin and I could get out to Worlds of Fun. His friend Amanda came along, and she's a lot of fun. We rode some rides and walked around until about 2:30ish and then Amanda had to leave. Justin and I rode a few more rides and then decided to call it a day. We went back to his house and decided to go see a movie. We went and saw Halloween. It was actually pretty good! Rob Zombie is a creepy M-Fer and it was cool to see the background info on Michael Myers. I left after the movie and checked my phone. Chip and Paul had called me and left voicemails, so I checked them. The first one was Paul telling me to call him back (whoops, I never did) and the second was NOT Chip. It was...

BEN.

Yes, my phone had not registered him calling, and just went straight to voicemail.

I freaked.

I called my mom and she told me that he had called and she had talked to him for a bit and told him where I was and he was very understanding. I feel awful. He never calls on Saturdays though, so I definitely wasn't expecting it! Geeze...my stomach just feels awful over all of this. I really hope he gets to call again tomorrow. My phone will not leave my side.

I only have a few more days until I get to see him....I need to keep my spirits up.

I'm meeting up with some friends at our little diner tonight, so hopefully that'll cheer me up.
