Halloween was a blast. I wore a French Maid costume. I know what you're thinking: OMGSHORT?! Yes. Yes it was. I looked fantastic, if I do say so myself. Brett, Erica, Travis and I went to McCulliffe's first and had a few drinks (including a very delicious Pumpkin Spice shot) and then went back to Erica's for the house party. There was lots of alcohol. I got sick. >.> Thankfully a big strong Marine carried me upstairs and put me in the guest room so I could pass out. The night was tame but very fun. One of my  best Halloweens yet. :)

I also received my new gaming PC from Sheep. The graphics are simply amazing and the extra RAM is very noticeable. Combine the new PC with the new monitor and my rig is very, very impressive. <3

I'm broke, but that's no surprise. I've been riding on E for the past week even though gas prices are dropping. My car also needs new windshield wipers and a plate renewal. I also need to renew my license which expired in September. Oops. >.>;

I'm quite pleased that Obama won the election. It's a much needed change. I'm hoping America can move forward now into a better era. I trotted over to the local voting booths on November 3rd and cast my ballot for Obama, picked up my "I Voted Today!" sticker and wore it with pride. That night, I watched in silence and awe as our new President delivered an amazing speech to ring in his victory. I'm proud of America. We've come a long way since racism and slavery. It's high time that we can prove that enough people in America don't care about skin color, but instead care about who YOU are inside. Who you are isn't as simple as your nationality and shouldn't be subjected to such superficial organization.

I have quite a long day ahead of me tomorrow, so I should probably head to sleep.

Take care, until next I write.

 

Bad news:
x Ankle injury is still apparent.
x I walked past an unfinished fixture at work two days ago and sliced a hole in the thigh of my only pair of jeans that fit.
x Fights in my apartment have been more and more frequent.
x The muffler for my good ol' car rusted off yesterday, so I have to put up with a very loud Ford Taurus until I can afford to replace it.
x My thyroid is still screwed up and my doctor had to bump up my medication again today. I hope this can be resolved soon. I'm starting to get a little worried.

Good news:
x Painting for my new casa is almost finished. All that's left is the trim. I'm extremely pleased with the color of the walls; I can't wait to see what it looks like when finished.
x A very good friend of mine is visiting from California tomorrow. I'm excited to see him. It should be a fun couple of days.
x Packing is going well. I do believe I'm almost finished now.
x I'm on a self-propelled road to improvement. I've picked out a few aspects of my personality to work on and I'm genuinely going to stick with it. I would like to be a better person so that maybe my next relationship (whenever that may come around) will be as flawless as possible.

I'm off to do a bit of last minute cleaning before I retire for the evening.

Take care, everyone.
