What's a Hurricane?

So that so called hurricane, Fay, came through yesterday. It went down to a tropical storm which means it was just a huge storm with higher winds. It was nothing but it's been raining for about 24 hours straight almost. A few small stops here and there but almost constant. The back yard is totally flooded and looks like a shallow lake. The roads are pretty flooded too and some places there are 4-6 inches of water. I'll take some pics of it when the sun comes back out a little bit and it stops raining.

During the rainy day I had Vanessa over. Since my dad's flight got canceled I wasn't doing anything so I picked her up, brought her to my place, and we watched a movie, "The Breakfast Club" since she hadn't seen it, and watched some anime. We cuddled and talked a lot. :) It was a pretty good time. She's been kind of holding back. Like at the movie theater keeping her arms crossed on her lap. So I've had to been kind of up front with her and say, "Hey, why don't ya do...." Kind of bad for me since I'm shy too and nervous but so far it hasn't been to bad. Yesterday was actually really good for me and I lightened up and wasn't nervous at all. I started to get some confidence back which made me happy.

School starts next Monday and my car still isn't fixed. I'm still pissed that I paid 4k for a car that I was told worked totally fine. I even asked if there were any problems with it at all and he said none at all. I've also had to put money into parts and what not so I'm down another 300-400 bucks into this frigging car so needless to say I'm pissed at Ken. He is doing some of the work of installing the radiator and the head gasket which is awesome. I'm glad he's doing that but I still have to buy the parts. Because of all this crap I'm really low on cash. Between the monthly payment to Ken, my CC debt, and the last four weeks I've had off from work I'm kind of up shit creek. Today I'm going to raid my garage if it stops raining and trying and find more stuff to sell online. Maybe make another 200-500 bucks. I think i can easily get another 1k out of parts if I try. I still have to pay for school and what not. I think I'm going to put in for a student loan now that I'm 24 I don't need my dad to fill out the FAFSA so I won't need to get him involved. School is gunna be another 600-700 bucks in classes and then I have another few hundred in books.

Work is cutting hours or so says one of my co-workers. They guaranteed me 20 hours a week when I signed on so we'll see what they do there. They are limiting out hours to 12 hours per day though for all the residential staff. I don't think that's going to work that well. For me I'm not going to do this. If they do 12 hours for 3-4 people to work per day, then that'll mean most people are going to have 3-4 hours shifts. I won't work short shifts like that. That means I'd be working 5 days a week at 4 hours per day. That's messed up and un-acceptable. There's a reason why I only want 20 hours a week, that's because I don't want to be working a lot of days a week and if I have to work 5 days a week then I'm just going quit and find another job.

That's all now. Gunna get going. :p
