Why Does This Happen To Me?

Alright... Ask anyone who knows me and they would tell you that I have absolutely no problem being single and am not looking to be in a relationship any time soon.  Unfortunately, guys that I know happen to have different ideas.  Case in point: A dude I work with.  Now maybe I'm misreading this... and I seriously hope that I am, but I'm almost starting to feel smothered by him.  Let me explain.  Ok... So I try to be nice to people that I come in contact with.  Sadly, guys seem to read into this deeper than I ever intend.  So I was nice to this dude.... just like I am everyone else.  We get along.  Fast-forward to recently.  He has been texting me and tweeting me constantly and just generally making me feel... well.... smothered.  I said something on twitter the other day about needing coffee... and he was going to make me some and bring it to me.  He always wants to watch movies 'with me'... as in... not physically with me but at the same time.  Am I misinterpreting this?  How in the world do I let him know that it is strictly a friendship?

Anyway... I know that I haven't posted in a while, and I really have nothing interesting to post about.  I worked the midnight launch of Battlefield 3 and since I was only going to be at work for a few hours, I didn't really feel like putting too much effort into my hair.  This is what happened:

Sorry for the 10,000 pictures.... I couldn't get a good quality one for the life of me (that's what I get for using my iPhone).  You get the idea.  I used nothing but bobby pins.  Easy.

But yeah... Other than work, all I've really been doing is working on homework and my personal trainer certification.  And going to the gym occasionally.  Can't complain.  I'm hoping to get up to Canada to see a friend of mine from DePauw... whom I haven't seen in almost 3 years now.  Way too long.

Oh!  And someone came in to work a week or so ago and told me I look like Taylor Swift.  Can someone please explain this to me because I'm still trying to figure out how that even remotely works.

I DID go shopping recently to pick up a few things that i needed clothing-wise (good jeans are hard to find!). I'll post a 'haul' tomorrow.  Outlet malls are full of fantastic deals.  : )

Blame Chuck

Oh wow.  I feel as if time has slipped away from me yet again.  I blame Chuck.  Ok... I don't really know anyone named Chuck.  I'm talking about the TV show.  You see... I kind of love that show and I have seasons 1-3 (season 4 comes out soon!!!) and I've been kind of sucked into watching them like crazy.  It also means I have been procrastinating on my homework (among other things).

I also went out and got me a shiny new job.  I know.  Be impressed.  Actually it isn't all that impressive, but I do get access to almost any video game imaginable.  That's kind of cool, right?  Actually it will be crazy handy for Christmas shopping.  My sister's boyfriend is a bit of a gamer, so that'll make that easy to take care of and be done with.  Yay easy shopping!  My first day was Monday and I kind of felt dumb.  Like seriously.  My poor manager was probably wondering why he even hired me.  Hopefully I'll get the hang of all of it soon.

My last job was working in a competitive swim shop.  I knew what we sold like the back of my hand since I am a swimmer.  Video games?  Not so much.  I have a LOT of learning to do... and I have to figure out the computer.  That's going to be fun, too.  Actually the computer part shouldn't be that bad.  The first day it was kind of overwhelming, but doing working with it enough, it should get easier.

And I gotta let everyone know before I end this short blog:
LIGHTS' new album dropped yesterday.  It's called Siberia and I swear it is one of the best records of the year.  It has been a long time in coming, but wow was it worth the wait.  You guys should check it out.  She sings electro-rock/pop kind of stuff, so it's kind of different than the norm.  It's cool though, I promise.

Ok... well that's about it.  It's been kind of boring around here lately, but when something exciting happens I'll let ya know.  Until then.... BYE!!!!
