Because I need something else (*eyeroll*), I now have a Twitter. I may or may not actually use it. I mostly got one so I could follow other people. Feel free to add me though and I'll add you back :D
Today is my only day off this week. I worked two days I wasn't originally scheduled for, covering for someone who had a death in their family. So I don't really mind. It's more money anyway. Just means that I'm really tired and sore right now. But all is well. I'm going to finish my Christmas cards so I can mail them off, watch movies, and make a cake.
Yesterday, my mom came to my work to drop off a bus pass for me. When she left, my manager asked what ethnicity I was. I told her I was mostly white (English, Irish, etc.), but I had some Spanish, Italian, and Native American in me. My mom is blonde and has blue eyes, but I get my coloring from my dad (DARK brown hair, hazel eyes, olive-y skin) who has the Spanish and Italian ^_^
And finally, two of my friends are pregnant. And they're both younger than me. I'm more happy about one than the other, but still. I can't even fathom having kids yet. I hung out with the one whose pregnancy I'm more happy about yesterday after work. We got lunch and then a pregnancy test. I like how they lock them up in the case behind the counter. With the cigarettes. 'Yes, I'd like a carton of lights. And a pregnancy test, please.' Anyway. I don't think it's really hit me yet (and I can't imagine how it is for them). Being pregnant this early doesn't seem real. But soon, they'll start to show, and eventually they'll be MOTHERS. I can't quite grasp this concept. Not yet, at least.

Date: 2008-12-05 12:28 am (UTC)*shrug* I have people ask me what I am all the time. Sometimes they're close. One of my neighbors thought I was Greek. And when I was a baby, people thought I was Asian - Chinese, I believe. And although she is my boss, she acts more like a coworker/friend. We talk about almost anything, including how she just moved in with her boyfriend and how hard that decision was because she was raised Catholic.
