Sorry for not posting in awhile

So on the 18th was mine and Rod's 5 year anniversary. Unfortunatley he was out of town, so instead one of my best friends and roommate from college went out to dinner with me. It was a lot of fun getting to spend some time with her. Especially because I see her everyday (we work together now) but I never have a chance to really talk to her. Plus we got to talk about some bridesmaids stuff for my wedding. I really enjoyed the night even though I couldn't be with Rod. Rod got home on Wednesday, but I had tons of homework to get done. Thursday I had an interview at Falls Church City Public Schools. It went well and she just wanted to call my references but she seemed to really like them. Then on Friday, Rod had off so I expected he would go out and get me an anniversary gift. Especially since Friday July 21st, was one year until our wedding. I called him during the day and he said he didn't go out so I got disappointed and assumed I wasn't getting anything for our anniversary. When I got home from work, I decided to do some homework. Then we decided we would go out to dinner and a movie. Rod realized I was going to be missing two showes I watch on Friday night and I said that's ok I can just tape them because we had a new VHS tape. Then he asked how would I do that since the VCR was gone. I turned around and for our anniversary Rod had gotten me DVR from Comcast. I had wanted Tivo or DVR for awhile and let me tell you, I didn't know what I was missing. DVR is GREAT!!! I was really excited. So we went to dinner and a movie. Then we got home about 1:30 and I went straight to bed. I got up on Saturday morning and went to the gym, then to work, then Marissa and I went to lunch and shopping for a dress for Jackie and Char's wedding. We went to Fair Oaks Mall and unfortunately someone spilled something and I wasn't paying attention and I slipped and fell and pulled a lot of muscles. Luckily the fall wasn't for nothing because I was able to find a dress for the wedding. Then Rod took the metro out and we had dinner with my dad. On Sunday, I did tons of homework and wrote 2 papers. I also did a crap load of laundry starting at 8:30 in the morning. I did almost all the laundry before Rod even got up for the day. Later in the day we were leaving to go grocery shopping and as we opened the door a little envelop fell and it said we had a package at the front desk. It turned out it was my anniversary gift to Rod. He wanted a machine to make his own soda at home. It's really actually kinda cool and less calories than regular soda. The package had been there since the 19th. I was really upset because I could have given it to him on Wednesday, but they never tell you things are at the front desk. They assume that the person delivering the package will knock on your door and then leave a note if you don't answer. Well, they did neither. Noone knocked on our door or left a note saying we had a package at the front. I don't know why the people at the front desk wait for 4 days until they decided to give you a note. I'm sure they didn't really want the boxes sitting there for 4 days. Oh well, it's not our fault. At least it came and it works :) On Monday I went to school. We have a ton of work plus a group project, but luckily the semester is almost over. For me next week is my last class. I have 4 papers and a group project to get done before Rod and I leave for Jackie and Char's wedding, but it will get done. Yesterday, I found out that Falls Church City Public Schools wants to hire me which I am really excited about because they will help pay for my schooling. Unfortunately, today I found out I am going to have to resign the job I have now. I thought I had explained it to my boss that I was only going to be working here part time after August and that I was looking for a job that would pay my tuition, but I guess she didn't understand. They want to have someone who is able to do their documentation more than 20 hours per week. I'm really disappointed because I was hoping to make some money for Rod and I to buy a house, but at least my new job will be less stressful. I will have no deadlines and no responsiblities. I'm really going to miss the people I work with though. Anyway, I better go. I should be doing work, although I'm really not feeling well so maybe I'll go home soon. I'll post again soon, I promise!
