January 13th, 2012 in "Waiting for my Petrichor"

Don't get me wrong,I will miss so much about Washington. It has been my dream to live here forever! I finally got to experience a whole year of this wonderful place, but it is now time to move on. I can't believe how fast this year went by. I can't believe a week after moving here I met my future husband. I also can't believe I spent nine months working for Wal-Mart. But in three more days I will be back in California getting ready for my wedding! I can say for once in my life I am looking forward to warm weather. I would take cold over hot any day, but I am sick of my hands being numb and paying a shit load of money for heating this apartment. I am also sick of Jasper never getting to go outside because of the rain and being cooped up indoors all day. I'm just lucky there hasn't been a snow storm here yet this winter because I would have just fucking called out of work. But now I will be back in California and I'm glad it isn't going to be during the summer because I also never want to experience THAT horrible heat again. 70 degrees sounds much better to me then 30. This last week of work has been seriously dragging. I am ready to dump all my walmart shit in the dumpster, especially these nasty shoes that have holes in them and soak my socks and feet every night while I clean the floors. ughhhh THREE MORE SHIFTS!! Then I am taking a big suitcase to Cali and bringing my rings down and my hair extensions. Trying on my wedding dress, finding a cake, and picking out the flowers. Dave got his tux stuff done today so that is all set. I am hoping all the groomsmen can get fitted and ordered in 30 days because if they wait longer then that there are fees. Dave and I have to get dance lessons at this place in Rancho Cucamonga before the wedding that is going to be 75 bucks. Then my mom and I are going to see the medium for a sitting so that is another 75 bucks. I know not to expect anything with psychics, but I really can feel my grandma coming through. I need to hear from her/get some sign before my wedding because I don't want to be an emotional wreck on my wedding day without her there. Dave and I have a good amount saved up plus I will have about 700 bucks and he is getting paid two more times. I am sure we will be fine until he starts tech school and I find a part time job, but I still get stressed out about all the expenses we have ahead of us. Also, I have a great aunt in Arizona that I have not seen in like ten years. I want to see her on my way to Mass so Dave and I are going to stop by there on our way. I am nervous but excited to see her because she was one of my favorite people when I was a kid and I have missed her a lot! We want to take her to this Organ Pizza thing that she took my family and I too the very last time I saw her. So as you can see, I am more than ready to get the ball rolling on all of this and sick of these days dragging by. Why can't it just be Monday at 11 p.m already?!!?
