May will be an easy month of work for me. Should be, at least. Last week I took Friday off and Billy, Shannon, Laura, James, and Dan and I went camping, so I only had a 4 day week. This friday we have "Building Community Day" where we pretent like we are bonding with the other instructors and we do not have class. Next week I only have school Monday and Tuesday then off to Mayfest I go. The week after, I have *gasp* a five day work week. Then the next week, no Monday for Memorial Day and off camping we go again. Hmmm what else...This Friday night is Chelsea Handler's show in Tacoma that Laura and I are going to. Her show is on the E! Network every night at 11:30, she is freakin hilarious, watch it. Hmmmm then P-town. The 31st Dan is taking me to the Canada/Brazil soccer game in Seattle. Soccer isn't much my thing but pro games are ok, I went in Italy too. That's about it....camping was fun, too much booze, not enough sleep, so that is the perfect recipe for great camping.

Spoiled
I have reached the conclusion that my life is charmed, and if I bitch about things that are trivial and stupid in this blog, you can tell me to shut up. I have been on, seriously, 5 dates in the last two weeks (I just cannot pick ONE right now, haha). I live in an apartment with two friends (even if allan cannot do a dish to save his life). I am looking for a house to buy for the fall. I love my job. I am going to the Mariners game Saturday, and my little bro is coming to visit. I am going to Alaska in May for Mayfest, I went to Vietnam in November, Mexico in March and also last June, I am going to Canada this summer for softball. Spoiled. La Vita e Bella. (By the way, that is a great movie in Italian).

Leavenworth Conference
I just got back from my first work conference as a fully employed, (almost) self-sufficient adult. Makes me feel old. But, the conference was pretty fun. Two days in Leavenworth, the town, not the federal prison, although that would have also been appropriate given my work. However, Kristyn and I (coworker, fellow youngster on the job, and fellow Whitman grad) decided that as stuck up as it sounds, we are much more intelligent than anyone who presented, and we are going to present next year. We already got permission. I mean really, no one was well-spoken and one guy just read his power point out loud to the group. EVERYONE knows that you make bulleted points and then elaborate during the lecture. Geez. So we, the youngest in the Prison Educators Association, will present next year and show them how it's done.

Calmer now
Ok, internet fixed. Turns out comcast has not sent us a bill since January. They don't know why. They told us that the mailman has likely been giving our bills to someone else. would have been nice of that person to pay them for us, huh?
Tonight I am going to dinner with a bunch of my sorority sisters. I know I know, I am not in college anymore, but as was POUNDED into our head during that four years, A THETA IS FOREVER. So there.
I will post Mexico pics soon. I found that blogger has made this a much easier thing to do since, say, my Italy days.
Speaking of Italy, I had a dream the other day where I was speaking all Italian, and I think it made sense, so maybe I know more Italian than I thought.
I will be in Petersburg in ONE MONTH! And the hobag, you know who you are now, shall go drinking with me.

Fucking Pissed
I'll tell you ab out MExico soon, but for now, I can only write at work because my roommate, and NOT the female one, has not been paying the goddamn tv and internet bill apparently, since JANUARY, and it got shut off today. He says he has been. Hopefully it's a mix up. But all I know is we have been giving him money to pay it and it has not been paid. Grrrrr

Great Golf Ball Adventure, Part 2
Sorry it's been two weeks, bad Karna. Last night we went out to BB McGraws to go dancing and came home and had the GGBA, Part 2 (see the title of my post for the translation haha). Seanne, Laura's cousin, joined us this time. We wore some sweet outfits and snuck under the fence to the driving range next door. There is a double fence, and in between the two fences there are tons of golf balls that never get collected. We got 8 garbage bags full. The pics are on my myspace. I will try to remember how to use Flickr and put some on here. We got 1274 total golf balls. amazing. Laura and I leave for Mexico tomorrow, so I imagine I will have tons of adventures to tell you about next week!

House hunting
Mom got here last night as I already said, and today we went house hunting. I have a decent job, only a school loan payment (car is paid, no other bills), so I figure it is time to stop paying rent to someone and pay it to myself, in the form of a house payment. I want something on the Cedar River, which means 1) I wait patiently for someone to have a foreclosure disaster because that is the only way I will be able to afford one of those houses, or 2) Mom and I win the lottery with the ticket we bought tonight in hopes of making this house hunting business a whole lot easier. 59 million from the Mega-Millions lotto would certainly broaden my options a little.
Words of wisdom
Here are my words of wisdom for Saturday, March 15: Never let a white person do your eyebrows, and if you must, then at least make sure she is not over 60 years old with penciled-in brows.
There has been no recent disaster, but I caved out of desperation back in June and let someone fitting the aforementioned description wax my eyebrows, and she 1)burned the crap out of my face with hot wax and 2) made my eyebrows freakishly thin and scary. took three months to grow them back. Ugh. Watch out for those old white ladies armed with wax.
In other news, mom is here and going to prison with me Monday. If my prisoners screw with me or leave anymore damn dead bugs on my desk when she is there, I am going to rack them in the balls.
