Christmas was good. Busy, but good. Christmas Eve: I worked 7-3. Then I picked Michael up. We went to cash my check and buy a couple last minute things. Went to Fresh Market and got dessert. Then we headed to my apartment. Cleaned up and started cooking. My mom and brother got there a little later. I cooked a Christmas dinner! Cornish hens, ham, rice dressing, mac and cheese, plenty of sweet things and breads. It was really really good! We sat around and talked and had a couple glasses of wine. Mom and brother left, Michael and I went to bed.
Christmas Day: Brought Michael to work at 7. Went back to sleep. Went to work at 11 until 3. Picked up Michael. We went to his house & visited with his family and ate. Amazing roast. Good job Ms. Denise!! We watched a movie, played COD II. Went to my apartment. Hung out with Kristina, who by the way is due any day now... Then went to bed.
And now, he's at work from 7-3 and I'm here from 11-7. I'm really really disliking my job now. I think I've way past done with the hospitality industry. Well.. it's about to be a new year... which hopefully will bring new beginnings.
ps. Michael's mom was offered a job in downtown Little Rock. So I might be moving. It's a small might, but it's an option...

( Rikki came over )
It's been a while since I've updated...
I'm finally in a place in my life where I can get everything paid and taken care of. By Jan. I will no longer be in debt. lol. Woo. Everything will be taken care of. I've been budgeting like a mad woman lately.
Michael & I haven't taken a "vacation" since June. When we went to Florida.

( Navarre Beach )
It's time for another one.
Kristina has been having Gary over every night. I hate it. I hate her for it. She disgusts me. She's due in December and still has nothing for the baby. Her parents are going to buy everything for her. It makes me sick. She's still fucking Gary. I want to tell her parents, but I'm scared to. I don't want to mess this up for myself. I don't care about her anymore. She's one of the most selfish people I have ever met. It literally makes me sick to my stomach that someone like her is bringing a child into the world. Gary still has not bought ONE thing for his son. He just comes here and eats. Plays X Box. Makes fun of Kristina. Fucks her. And leaves. It's sickening. This is why I've lost faith in humanity. It is just not fair. I don't want to be a part of this anymore... It's time for Ashley to live Ashley's life. The end.

Ok so now the post I originally came to post today.
Like I said, I live at Diamond Lake Apts with Kristina, who is pregnant. She is due at the end of December. So I'm about to be living with a single girl and a mixed new born baby. I'm not worried about that so much,I'm more than willing to help out. I wouldn't be living here if I weren't. But her parents are paying for us to live here. They're paying everything besides the Cox bill. It's furnished... it's a wonderful thing. I'm working. She's working back for her dad and things are great. She doesn't have to worry about where she's going to sleep... She has a home again.
But this deal will be stopped ASAP if Kristina has any contact with Gary. Which is a hard place, because yeah, he's the father of the child, but in my opinion, he doesn't deserve to have the privelage of a son because of how stupid he is.
He's had Kristina leave with her stuff in trash bags, not knowing where she's going, while she's pregnant because he wanted time alone... No. He wanted to fuck other girls and not have her in the way. He's told her to her face, in front of me that he doesn't love her anymore. So they finally broke up for good, and her parents did all of this. After everything she's done to them... they're still here for her.
She knows that if she has contact with Gary.. this will all go away. And she will be on her own again.
Gary came over the other night..."to talk about the baby". (oh btw, until she called him, he had no idea where she was or if she was ok and never bothered asking anyone.) Well... they didn't just talk about the baby. they talked about them... and they cuddled and watched a movie. and he slept over....
I did not know this until i woke up in the morning and realized that my seat was still up in my car (from when he got out last night). I was pissed beyond words. I brought him home and had a 2 hour talk with kristina. I cant tell you how many times i told her she was stupid and selfish.
But its true.
how can someone be so stupid? how can someone be so selfish?
he's mentally and emtionally beat her for almost ALL of her pregnancy because he wants to flirt with every girl he runs into. and now that he's not getting the pussy he thought he was going to get, he wants to crawl back to her so he's not alone. and now that he sees everything she has... he's going to use her. and she's dumb enough to let him.
i just cannot wrap my mind around someone being so stupid.
she wants to keep him. but how? if her parents find out... she'll lose all of this. i want to tell them.. because she needs to learn, but i cannot bare the thought of her with no where to go.
this is a stupid situation...
i just cannot get it through her head that he does NOT love her... Shes going to have a baby boy in a couple months...
it's not about how she feels anymore. its all about that baby...
how can you be SO selfish??? to risk everything just to see that stupid, ignorant, disgusting boy? he hasn't even TRIED to get a job to support the baby. he's worried about people hanging out with him. He's a stupid STUPID pathetic excuse for a human. and he knows this is what i think.
And I know a couple who'd love to adopt him. They could provide things for him that she never would be able to. It's not my choice... but I'm damn well going to put my 2 cents in.

I now work at the Holiday Inn (Holidome). I live at Diamond Lake Apts with Kristina. She is due in December.
Her mom and dad are paying our rent and utilities. They've furnished the apartment, including washer and dryer.
Gary is ignorant.
Michael and I are great. As always. We'll have been together for 1 year on Oct. 5.
My life is pretty amazing. I don't think I'd change a single thing even if I was given the chance.
Only down side is.. Amber Wolfe. My ex roommate. She moved to NC. We still owe like $1360 that is suppose to be split over 4 months ($350 a month) that we split in half. (We should each pay 173.50 for the next 4 months.) I've paid. She hasn't. Not that I know of. It worries me.
(this was suppose to have been posted about a week ago... but when I came to post today, it was saved as a draft. lol. oops.)

So I'm moving back to Rayne. I'm suppose to be doing that right now. Lacie is moving in to take my place. Sweet!
I was talking to Ms. Denise last night about maybe comming back to the La Quinta. You know in the near future. Well this morning, at 7:30 am, Michael and I get a call from her. Hailie is sick at the Juliet so Michael needs to go in (bummer) and Patience called off at the LQ. So she asked if I'd come in for a few hours. (Sure)
I got here at 9:00am. It is now 7:30pm.
I'm still here. No idea who's comming in next... or when...
I'm thinking this was a bad idea.
On the up side. I've made 10.5 hours at $9.00 an hour. Not horrible. But damn... my feet hurt.
Oh also. Michael should be bassist for Gary's band... They are "Span The Sky".
Check them out if you'd like.
I want to go home. =[
ps. I haven't eaten yet. I'm starving! & we went to a show last night, so I deperately need a shower. I'm gross and hungry... and lonely.

alrighty. so.
I think I've got a job. I worked today, as a trial. and I will again on Monday and then I will know if it's for sure.
It's at a daycare. Lil Angels.
I love it. I work in the >1year old room. They range from 6 weeks old to about 1 year. Basically, if they can walk they go to a different classroom.
It was nice. But, I'm not that familiar with babies that young. I know how to change diapers. And I know how to make bottles. But it's nerve racking a bit. But I really really like it.
The babies are all so different and watching them interact with each other... it's amazing. They're learning. And its neat.
It pays crap, but I think I'd love this job. Minus the insane back pain that is to come. lol.

quitting was a dumb idea. i'm so stupid for that. & also depending on other people to pay their part of the bills. i shouldn't have done it.
i cannot wait until my lease is up. i am not living with anyone else until i'm married. that way there is no one to blame but myself.
i'm about $200 short to pay everything that needs to be paid.

I'm still searching for a job, so if anyone knows anything...
But I consider myself lucky. Yesterday, Amber's friend Steven moved in with us. So my share of rent will go down for the comming months. I'll be able to pay everything, so I consider myself very lucky.
But my car is acting up. I swear, that thing is driving me nuts. I just had to replace the catalytic convertor & the MGsomething or other( which was useless considering it was the catalytic convertor that was messed up... which i TOLD them to check for!!!!!!!) But now the CV joint is cracked. And it's making a horrible knocking noise when I turn to the right.
And also, there's a problem with Monte Carlos that having something to do with the steering column and the speed sensor. Evidentally on almost all of the '01 monte carlos, they made the part too long, which causes the speed sensor to rub against something with causes the traction system to act up and my ABS light to come on...
It's ridiculous.
And the day before yesterday my check engine light came on. It could be caused by the CV joint, but I don't think so... Boo.
Hopefully I can find a job that pays well enough and since I'll be saiving about $150 a month with Steven now living with us, I can find a decent car.
Wish me luck everyone.
Kristina's decided to keep the baby.

Michael and I just got back from Florida. It was a nice getaway. We went to Fort Walton Beach, FL. We hung out there, in Destin, and in Navarre.
Navarre beach is by far my favorite. It calls itself "Florida Best Kept Secret". And it is!
We were on a 7 mile stretch of beach (public beach) but we were all alone. There's so much room, and so little people. I'm def. going to be back there.
On another note, I have to meet Ms. Pam today to fill out paper work for my new job. Hopefully I won't have to train to long before they put me in a management position. Which is why I really took the job. There is so much room for advancement!! I have the potential to make 50K a year. Which would be mind blowing!
When my lease at Pinhook South is up, I'm moving. Away. I'm considering Dallas. 1. It's a great city. 2. It's not Louisiana. 3. Ms. Gilmore is there and I know I'd have a job.
The only bad part is that Michael has to go to school. He's got financial aid here in LA, but I'm not sure if that could happen as easily or at all in TX. I'm not sure at all, but it's still 8 months away.
PS. If anyone needs a place to stay, I'm looking to get out of my lease. So you can take over my half at Pinhook South.
I need to be saving all the money I can. And I'm hardly ever at the apt. anyway. I'm willing to work things out with anyone who needs it. Please just let me know if you know ANYONE looking for an apt. in Lafayette.
Anywho. It's time to clean up a bit. So... Good day fellow LJers.

I know I don't post much, but it's ok. I really have nothing to update about ever.
Well, I have a new job. I start next week. I have today and Wed. left at the La Quinta. Which I'm happy about, it's time for something new anyway. I will be working at Money Marts in the area. It starts at 9.50 and hopefully after a couple months I will be an area manager. There is potential for me to make 50K a year. Now I'm not keeping that in mind because it's just a possibility. But still, I'm very excited.
At the end of this month I will be 20. I really wish my life were more productive. =/ But I suppose it will be ok.
Michael and I made 8 months, and it stills feel very new. I still look at him with nothing but pure love. He is my everything & I'm very very very happy with how well our relationship is doing. We're good together. Very good together.
Kristina is pregnant... for Gary. They broke up and shes back at home now. That is a whole story in itself.
I will post more. I will.

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL WAS AMAZING.
It was everything I expected and more. Baton Rouge was a nice host to Michael and I. The hotel was amazing. Minus the super firm bed that killed both our backs. lol. This weekend was by far the most amazing weekend of my life.
I am absolutely completely in love with Michael. I could spend the rest of my life with him and not have one single complaint. =]
I move out this Friday. Amber and I have an apartment near Kaliste Saloom / Verot School Rd. Pinhook South. They're really nice. Big. I can't wait.
This job stinks. I work entirely too hard to be making what I'm making. I am basically the AGM. I run this hotel better than Denise does. But yet I'm making the same amount the housekeepers are. Fuck that. Time to look for a new job! =]
My life sorta sucks. It's very routine. It's very mellow. But I like it. I think.

what a shocker. first things first... Obama. the first african american president. making history! changing things! ... causing more havoc than ever ...
ok, so i don't care that he's black. i don't even care if he is or isn't muslim. i don't care if our president is an albino fainting sheep.
i just want someone who will lead this country back to greatness. & while Obama wants that, he can't do it. and sadly, it's because of his race. not that he's the bad guy... because it's not him thats in the wrong. it's america. all the controversy over a BLACK president. all the ignorant people who are against him only because he's black. & all the ignorant people who are for him only because he's black.
i just don't think america is ready for a black president, which i find extremely sad in this day in age. people just cannot open up to that idea, and well, its too late. lol.
i just think its going to be more trouble than good.
now if i'm wrong, which i hope to be, i think he'll be a great president. i think he has great ideas, but a lack of experience. which could be good or bad.
either way, i hope he doesn't go down as the first assassinated black president. :( [no really.]
But on a much lighter and more spectacular note. Michael and I are great. And I love every moment of it. He makes me feel better than I've felt in a very very long time. Maybe even ever. & I'm glad to be one of those cheesy girlfriends again. It's been a long long time. =]

So let me update you all a little bit.
My life suddenly got thrown into a whirl wind of drama. and that is NOT something I'm down for. So I ended it basically.
Cut people from my life that shouldn't be there & it feels amazing.
Last night, there was a bon fire at Jon's house. So I went. Mattie (Jon's little brother) blew himself up. He's in the burn unit in Baton Rouge. Clayton poured a shit load of gasoline onto the pile and Mattie tried to light it with a cigarette lighter... The boom was so loud, 5 people down the road (country road) called the fire department and police. Best part, Mattie and Clayton, and practically everyone else there, were tripping. So that made everything 10 times worse. I'm glad I wasn't there in time to see it. But last night, I also told Jon that it would be best if we were just friends. and I know, it probably wasn't the best time, but I just had to. And he doesn't want to be just my friend, so he's done. Which I knew would happen...
Secondly, I hung out with Amber Wolfe last night. It was like the first time I've actually hung out with her, and it was nice. She's a cool lady. It was nice talking to someone who wasn't biased about anyone in anyway. I needed that.
and Thirdly.. Michael Douglas Cook

He is my best friend. I work for his mom & she considers me a daughter. I love his family, they love me. My family loves him, and I'm pretty sure he loves them too. Well, recently he discovered he liked me. I laughed it off a bit and said no way. Then, we kissed... and I realized that I could potentially really like him. So we started hanging out, just him and I, and it's amazing. And I think that this could potentially be what I've waited 2 years for....

so it's been almost a year since i've updated.. so here you go. to catch up.
not much as changed.
[1] I work at La Quinta Inn & Suites on Pinhook. I love it. I love that it's businessmen (mostly) and I get to meet people from all over the world. It's awesome.
[2] There is still no guy in my life. Jonathon Henderson is back in my life though. Randomly. He loves me. I don't love him that way. So right now things are icky. But he's a really good friend.
[3] Every now and then I do something that I never thought I'd do. & I'm not going to say because I'm still iffy about letting people know. But shame on me.
[4] Kristina and Michael are 2 of the greatest people I know. They've been the longest, constant, friendships I've ever had [besides Rikki]. I love them.
[5] Kristina and I will probably have our own place by early Jan. So come have dinner =]
Other than that.. my life is simple. and I really enjoy it.
