week of work

Well, it's wed and I've been working as a teller all week at my local bank. I like the job but not so much the getting up early. That's okay though, I'm getting paid, and money is good.

Strangely I have found myself in an odd mood of late. The last two three days or so I have had a very short temper and seem to get really really annoyed at fairly mild offenses. Now that school pressure is off for a bit (oh hell, next quarter will be fairly breezy) and grades are in (did amazingly well considering what an insane quarter emotionally and school wise it had been), I was having some trouble pin pointing it. I realized that it was likely due to the fact that I am jelous that Brandon gets to spend a month with Maurice. He's on the plane right now in fact. Has been for about five hours. Maybe he's in the middle of a movie, or enjoying a meal.

I realize it's quite a silly thing. Brandon (who is like my other brother and we roomed together last quarter) hasn't seen his best friend since last July and soon enough I'll have Maurice all to myself, but I can't help feeling miffed that I'm stuck here while the boys get to go play for a month. I dare say I took it out on Brandon a bit last night, but then again he was making woman jokes that even his very chill sister did not find funny, so perhaps violently throwing my pad of paper at him that I was drafting a note to Maurice on, wasn't too much of an over reaction.
I'm still annoyed at him for thinking he could steal my fiance` and drive down to Portland the night befor our wedding to go to a "house warming party" with Hooters girls, and then drive back up, still jet-lagged and possibly hung over. Yeah, that sounds like a recipe for a really good wedding, a very happy me, and a great start to our life together. Brandon got shouted at a bit when I found out about that idiotic idea.
Just to clarify for the men folk out there: NO WHERE IS IT WRITTEN THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A BACEHLOR'S PARTY THE NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING (and it's a really stupid idea, by the way) or that you have to look at naked women. I told Maurice to have a party over there with all his ALT guy friends and Brandon and it would be fun. I'm having mine a week or two before the wedding. No big.

Anyway. I also might be easily pushed to cranky-ness because I know that this next month Maurice is going to be really busy having fun and I will hardly get to talk to him. I want them to have fun, I'll just miss talking to him at least a little online almost everyday, and once a week on the phone for a few hours. Plus I'll be stuck in Ellensburg taking basket weaving classes with only three friends there who also will be busy. I'm going to be so friggin lonely!!

AND as much as I love half of the island knowing that I'm getting married and congratulating me (the moms have been busy spreading the word-- I like to call it the mommy network), it's starting to wear and make me miss Maurice that much more.

But, now that Brandon has left, that just means they are one step closer to coming back here. A month from yesterday I get to see the love of my life for the first time in seven months, and a month from tomorrow I get to marry him!!

I'll intervene and make sure they have a miserable time, and lament that you are not there with them.

I don't think that there could be a miserable time around me, people just look at me and start laughing.
