Concert...

So I've been to a lot of concerts over the years. I'd say 15 or so over the past 6 years. I've been to pop concerts, rock concerts, rap/hip-hop concerts, but not once to a country concert, until last night that is. See I don't really consider the concert last night a complete country concert, but in some ways it was. Anyway...I hadn't been to a concert in almost a year...so it was time to make an appearance at one. I went to the New York State Fair and saw Carrie Underwood and Alan Griggs. I had never heard of Alan before...but he was really good. Carrie was awesome!! So it was a country concert...but Carrie did a couple covers of Guns 'N Roses...which was completely unexpected...but awesome! It shows a different side of her. I dragged Rich along with me to the concert...and he even said he had a good time...so that was good. So this past week and next week I'm going to be spoiled with seeing Rich 2 or 3 days a week...and then the more time I spend with him the more I miss him when he's not here...yeah I know...pathetic...but hey I don't care. I don't mind being pathetic. So anyway...moving on...Labor Day coming up on Monday obviously...and it's the Kim Dunne Labor Day Marathon Event on Lite 98.7...hehe. Yeah...I'm working Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Wednesday on Lite...so everyone gets to enjoy the sounds of Lite and Kim...hehe. What more could you want for your Labor Day? :-) Ok...guess I'm gonna go for now...Carrie and Alan pics will be posted hopefully tomorrow, but if not...it'll be on Friday...so check back for some great concert pics!

Local Train Accident

Ok...so the subject says it all...or does it? As mentioned, there was a train accident this past week...but it wasn't just any train accident. No one on the train was injured. That's the good news...the bad news...well look at the car in the pic... that's the car that was involved in the accident with the train. The question becomes, what the hell happened? No one really knows. All that is known is that 5 teens were in the car driving along...there were no gates or anything at the railroad tracks, there was only a stop sign, which I guess was partially hidden by a tree. It was about 6:30 at night...so it was getting dark but not completely yet. I don't know if the teens tried to beat the train or if they didn't know it was coming. How could you not know a train was coming? Wouldn't you hear it or see the lights, or something? I don't get it at all. One of the teens is dead as of now, and the other 4 or in local hospitals recovering, I think anyway. Haven't heard of any others dying well at the hospital. I just keep thinking that this is really weird. Now all over news is train safety this and train safety that. Yeah...well...I think they were just 16, 17, 18 year old teens that were just cruising along and thinking they were hot shit and could beat this train or something. I, along with many people I talk to, am compeletly baffled by what happened, and that's probably not good. I work in the news...I should know what happened. But bottom line...I don't...maybe the police can enlighten us at some point...

This Week

So it's been a weird week I guess. I had a horrible migraine yesterday which caused me to come home early from work and not go in at all today. So hopefully I'm back up to par by tomorrow. I think also knowing I still have a week in a half before I can see Rich again is starting to take it's toll. I guess especially when I don't feel good you get those moments when you just wish you could be lying in their arms doing nothing. That doesn't happen often enough these days. Anyway, I found this thing online from a friend...kind of "how you know you're in love" thing...I know I'm in love...but the things are so true!! 1) The idea of being away from them for more than a moment makes you sad...even if they're across the room you want to be holding them. 2) You'd bend over backwords just to see them smile. 3) You feel your heart race everytime their name comes up in your e-mail, IM or phone. 4) You'd wait a lifetime and honestly wait for the perfect moment to be with them. 5) You'd go through hell and back because you knew they were worth all the fights and tears in the end. 6) The idea of being with anyone else, looking at someone else doesn't cross your mind, you'd rather be with that one person. 7) There always on your mind and if you don't say goodnight or happen to talk for a day you spend the whole night thinking something's wrong. 8) You'd give up the one thing you know is right in this world if it meant they were happy even if it was with someone else. 9) You can honestly see forever with them and no one else. 10) The words I love you don't feel like they're enough to express what they mean to you. 11) You smile inside and out when you see them even if its been only 4 minutes since you last saw them. 12) You could stay up all night watching them sleep because your scared if you close your eyes they might turn out to have only been a dream. 13) Knowing your the reason they're sad breaks up inside even if it's just because they miss you...you want to do anything in your power to fix it. 14) You fall in love with them over and over everytime you kiss, hug, talk, smile at each other, or just reminded one another you care. 15) Even on the worst day of your life no matter how bad your days been, hearing their voice warms you up inside and might not make things all better but just for a moment you're happy again. 16) You drop your walls and let someone in even though if they hurt you it might kill you, you're willing to take that chance. 17) Everytime they kiss your neck or touch you in anyway you get chills down your back and a warm sensation takes over. 18) You'd sleep on a hard floor when you could be in a bed just because you want to be near them. 19) You know each others not perfect and love one another for their flaws as much as their perks. 20)Last but not least because even when they're not around, you know they're thinking about you and doing the same things you are for them for you :-) These things are so true!! Anyone in love or falling in love knows exactly where I'm coming from!!

Wowzers...

So my life is anything but easy right now :-( I pull at least one double a week usually...and not knowing about the full time job is starting to kind of make me all hyper and nervous and all that shit. I know I can't expect to get it...I don't have much experience...but if I don't...even though I expect that...I still would feel a sense of disappointment about it. As my mom stated...the worst that can happen is you keep doing what you've been doing. But that's the point...I'm tired of doing that! Tuesday and Wednesday of this past week I pulled 6 1/2 and 7 hour days working the news...yeah maybe those aren't even full time hours...but it was so freaking hot and the events were outside...I got home and was exhausted and hot and just wanted to be doing something else. I don't know if I could do news full time. I need something full time so I could drop 2 of the jobs and feel a sense of normalcy again. Then I also might get to see Rich once in awhile. As time goes on...it's been getting harder and harder to make it through a full week without seeing him...maybe it's just because this past week was so long and took a lot out of me. I would've loved to be able to just come home and relax with him...it seems to be the only time I get to relax. When I'm at home...I get bored so I have to be doing something...I generally am doing laundry or cleaning the house, or cleaning my room...or lately I'll exercise just to take my mind off of things. I don't think I ever realized it could be this hard...and often I wonder if it's worth it. I don't want that to come out the wrong way...I love him...I'm positive of that...and I would try to do anything to make it work...it just gets so irritating that we both have to work so much and don't even have time for each other. Or with that note...the gas money to see each other during the week...I realistically can not afford it...and that sucks...but nothing we can do about that...so all I can think of right now is to take it week by week...I don't know anymore...I really don't...
