I had one week off of work, and I hate to say it, but I'm ready to go back. It was a rather boring week. It had some ups...lunch with Mickey, a wedding, having Maria come down. The low point was my birthday. I called Becka to take me out, she said she'd call me back, never did. texted dee, didn't get it til today...I ended up having a beer by myself in a smelly bar by myself. Exciting.
1 week later, Dee still hasn't said Happy bday...not that upset about that, but now, I don't feel so bad when I don't do it on hers.
my 3 month end of the year thing is going on. Should be over in january..i hope.

i did call back and it went to voicemail. i didn't leave one because i figure you'd call back when you noticed i called. ask ray..i waited forever and a half
and dee...when michelle leaves her to call me...she never calls because she is too busy or asleep.
your birthday and my birthday were shitty. :(
lol...we still haven't "celebrated" my birthday yet either...still waiting for michelle to be able to. ha. my friends suck balls.
Hey,
I did not forget your B-Day =)
I thought it was on Dec. 18 and since I've been busy with a lot of stuff, I was thrilled because I could focus on graduating from School, Work, dad threatening to kick me out of the house on a monthly basis, dealing with Unemployment Insurance, looking for a FT job (w/benefits) enough to pay for the new car & Apt., and still completing stuff from my car accident in September with no problems.
Come Dec. 18, I would have called/txt you Happy B-Day! Of course, bugged you to go out and do something.
Unfortunately, it turned out that during the week I had to turn in all of my final assignments, my field experience and kapstone portfolio by Dec. 3 and two papers by Dec. 7, that your birthday was in the middle of all that.
Mickey called on Thursday of that week and said "we missed Eric's B-day" and I was like "no, It's on Dec. 18" and she said, "no it was Dec. 4." I said "nooo" and ran to look on my calendar, and well...I didn't put the date on the calendar.
So we called you up, since we were going to go see her sister's new baby to find out what you were doing later. I apologized for missing your birthday and asked what you did on it. Later that evening we bumped into you at Albertson's and again, we very briefly discussed poss. doing something with you after you were done babysitting.
Bare in mind, by that day, I still hadn't finished the assignment that was due on the 3rd. I had completed all of the observations over several weeks, but needed to complete writing about them. Except, I was overwhelmed, busy (usually with work), exhausted and a bit burnt out in general, that I didn't finish & turn it in until Dec. 11.
Nevertheless, I did hang out with Mickey after we visited her sister. Left my cell at home, so she was the one to call you, Beckie and Lorena. According to her, you would call us later when you were avail. and so we went to some bar & grill to hang with Lorena until you did. It must have been close to 10:30 before she heard from you again and by then, I was tired, still had to finish portfolio, the papers that were due on Friday, and had to work at 8:30 in the morning. Yet, if I didn't have to work so early, I would have hung out and watched a movie with you, if you were truly up for it.
I don't know if I called you on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, but I left a msg asking if you wanted to do something that weekend (I was going to ask if we could have an ALL Eric Day, but didn't)and about watching those Predator movies before Christmas over at my house.
I never heard anything back from you, and the only txt msg I got was at 11 pm on Saturday.
Unfortunately, I work from 11 - 1 AM on Fridays and 10 - 1 AM on Saturdays so I heard the phone, but it wasn't within reach. By the time I got to it, it was after 1 AM and I figured you all had made plans to go hang out and this was the first I was hearing about. I'm sorry, I didn't know you were there by yourself.
So that is my end of things. It's just like the time you forgot to tell me Happy B-day until 3 months later. I never said a word to you. I was a bit disappointed in general because I hadn't heard from you in a while and hadn't hung out with you in a while, but I figured you were busy with school and hanging out with your buds at NMSU. One day, I got an IM telling me Happy B-Day from you. LOL, it was the right day, the 25th, but it was the wrong month. So hey, at least I got the month right, LOL.
If it helps, Beckie and I almost always ask each other if Mickey's is the 30th or 31st of July (it's the 30th) and the other day Mickey thought Lorena's was the 28th (it's the 25th) of May. So, I guess in our "old age" or busy lives, at least we remember some aspect of each other's birthdays. That's actually why I need to put everyone's on my calendar and in my cell phone so I can have reminders (myspace did not remind me), LOL.
Anyway, hope all went well with your finals, and hope to hang with you very soon!
Actually, I was thinking we could all get together for breakfast. Everyone can make/bring their specialty. If it's not GF, it's cool, cuz I was going to bring the GF muffins.
Hmm...I don't work on Sundays or Mondays, but I can always call in sick for a weekend if you and Beckie want to take off and go to Cloudcroft, Ruidoso, or Albuquerque! Just let me know.
Take care Gumby*
*(No offense, you've been in two car accidents in less than 2 months and act like it was nothing, but moi, my neck usually hurts when I wake in the morning)
