Definitely call her. If it's a good chance to go out and see something fun, call her and see if it's okay. I'm sure she's going to be fine with it.
I went (yay) and it was great too. Unfortunately we didn't get to see any actual parade because we were late but it was lots of fun.
I don't know why I get so anxious, most of the time it turns out well.

Aw, geez! Got a ticket for a stand-up comedy gig this evening. It's sold oot, just hope am no' in the front row coz o' ma wheelchair. Last ah wuz in the front row o' a comedy show, eh, it didnae gan too well.
Anyway, am off to see Scottish comedian Fred MacAulay tonight in Dumfries. Quite a big deal, considering south west Scotland doesnae huv many venues for stand-up comedy. And even mair o' a big deal since MacAulay's fae Perth - north o' where ah live.

I'm so stressed!!! Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
One of the reasons is my @#$%ing laptop adapter cord frayed. I just got it this past summer, and that was the second one now. The new design they came up with sucks. My old adapter cord lasted 4 years before crapping out; this one lasted a measly 6 months or less, and I've been much less harsh on it.
I've decided I'm just going to get a new computer altogether, because my laptop is crap by now anyway. I want a PC. I just don't know what to get that will be reliable. I just need the basic stuff, really. I'm not a computer or film major or anything like that. I've read many reviews but I'm so indecisive and I'm really nervous I'll buy a computer only to have it be a nightmare. I HATE computer problems. They're so confusing.

College is very different from high school. I think you'll enjoy it more.

I was pulled over for a random breath test today where two cops from the station I work at had set up. Instead of going through the procedure, we ended up joking to each other for about 30 seconds. That was a lot of fun and put a big smile on my face for the rest of the day.
It helps to know the boys in blue. :thumbup:

Stick a penny under your tongue before a breath test (I'e heard this works) and/or gargle mouthwash so you can say "I have alcohol in my mouth from mouthwash" while showing them the bottle. That is, if it was a real breath test lol.

I was definitely not drinking, since I was driving home from a shift at the police station they just came from, haha.

Yep, I get tested for explosives almost every time, I guess because of my looks

So five months ago I started at a company. The job is ok. Very stressful, but the pay is ok and the coworkers are nice, and it's nearby. It has a six month trial period, during which I can quit at any time without reason, and they can fire me at any time without reason. So, about three weeks ago, my supervisor approached me, telling me that they had expected a bit more, and that it depends on how I deal with the other projects during the trial period, whether they keep me or not.
And now the job is not so nice anymore. The reason is that this puts a totally new level of stress onto everything. I don't just have to do good work, or satisfy the customers, everything I do I wonder how the supervisor will interpret it. Everything is checked more intensely. It's a whole new level of stress on top of everything else. In addition, it's the constant feeling of having failed, and meeting someone who thinks so each workday.
In a couple of weeks, the trial period ends. Then they'll tell me their decision. I don't even know whether I want to work there anymore. In theory the job is great, but I will then always have the feeling of being double and triple checked and constantly at the verge of being fired. I don't know whether I can work that way.
The alternative is that they don't want me, or that I quit. Then I'd have about five to six months to find a new job (chances are average for that, it's possible, might or might not work), and after that the government would give me just the minimum amount of money to live.
So, while the job itself is great, ironically the situation is bad. I feel very very stressed, I even have nightmares regarding the job.
