Raining Opportunity

Well my lovely friends,

Today has been quite the slow day. I've applied to various jobs while at work myself. I've only take two phone calls within a matter of a three to four hour time span. Like I said... it's been pretty darn slow. I got a phone call from John on Saturday... He was supposed to be coming back on Sunday, but that sure didn't happen. He was taken away only to possibly never heard from again. I'm trying my best to be patient. He has no control over his schedule. He's a Marine. And an Active Duty SEAL. what the hell did I expect from the jump? I don't think I was ready for that turn of events at all.

I'm beyond ready for him to come back. Larry is gone for about 2 months. My family (except for my dad) is Euro-tripping so I'm stuck here (technically with my dad, but not) by myself to keep me company. Or Shay comes over to hangout and we figure out what are we going to do.

Right now I'm just about ready to race home and strip out of these friggen clothes and throw myself on the bed. I just want to nap and this weather isn't making it any better. I've got an hour and twenty-two minutes left for this job to be over with today. TIME PLEASE GO BY FASTER. 

Well, that's all I'm going to share for today. Hope your week flies by fast. I hope mine does, too.

Random Thoughts

Hello all,

It's a (more or less) 30 minute countdown til I'm out of work. I kinda want to just stay with them for at least a year or so. I think I would make a good assistant or something. It would've been great if this is a temp to permanent position. Because, then I'd be good. I mean, all I really do is sit a computer all day and just work or take a mini break and chat with my colleague (just realized I spelt colleague wrong on one or two resume's). WOOPS. Oh, well. What's done is done.

I need to find a new job if the one I'm at is only for two months. It's kind of sad... you know? I've been here for nearly two months and have had a pretty fun ride with the people who work here and the team I'm on. It's been fun. I guess I should pull my supervisor to the side and just ask or something.

Well, anyway. I've finished the book Arrest by June Gray and have had the chance to preview the next book, Surrender which will be out 'soon'. I'm so ready and beyond addicted to June Gray's books. I appreciate the ending of the book which was pretty good to say the least. But, I'm pretty sure everyone's wondered about what they look like in someone else's eyes or have thought about what someone else would think in times of certain situations. It'd be interesting to view it from an outsider's (but not really) perspective.

My mother and most of my family is about to board a plan that's going to make it to Europe. They're having a Euro-trip without me. Which is depressing in itself, haha. But, I let each of them know, all I want brought back to me is Swiss chocolate. And Swiss chocolate they better bring. That's for sure. I didn't tell her that I'd be having friends over tonight to watch movies on the big screen in her living room, though. I'm sure she'll hear about it later.

I also haven't heard anything from John and quite sometime. I hope everything is all right.  I was extremely excited to hear from him on the 1st though. That was cool and I guess he did sorta forewarn me about not being able to talk to me all the time. But it's cute when he's excited. He talks as much as I do, maybe more. I miss him so much. I guess he can finally see that I really do miss him and want to show that I'm thinking about him with all the calls, voice messages, and texts I send. He must be thinking something along the lines of 'what the hell was I thinking.' Well, too bad sucka! You got sucked in and you're staying here with me for the long haul. I think I'm probably falling in l---. I won't say it, though. Not yet. But, I feel it. I almost wrote it out. Technically I did, but erased it just as quick. Well, thank for stopping by and checking out my random thoughts.

Toodloo,

Eden

It's Been Years

Wow. Is it sad that I forgot I had a blog? I guess this is the time where I can reinvent myself and just go on from there. My name is Eden. April Eden. I've been given many opportunities in love and I think maybe I've found the one that will make me happy and I'll be able to give him the same happiness he gives me. His name is John. I think that maybe this is the start of something great. He's given me a hope that I don't think I've been able to give myself in quite some time. There was someone before him that I thought maybe I could try and work it out with him, but it was to no avail.

John is 16 years older than me. We're both working towards a better tomorrow. We aren't too stuck in the now. He's the sweetest guy I've met. I genuinely feel that he's crazy about me because... well to be honest. I haven't a clue as to what in the world he sees in me. I'm younger, I'm pretty calm (well, unless something I want to happens doesn't I usually am), I'm his complete opposite. Female. Black. Curvy. Short. Short-Tempered. Younger. I guess maybe it's true what they say about opposites attracting.

I have no idea how my parents are going to feel about it. I've let my immediate friends know about him, though. So it isn't that no one knows about him. I think he's a little afraid of what my parents might say. I don't really care either way. I've told my step-father about him. Not about his age, my mom has heard me say a few things about him here and there. The best way to describe this situation is like Mama Lo and Papa Peltier from Dark Hunter's series. I'm the only girl, not the youngest. but the ONLY. The fact that he's afraid of what they'd think is so funny to me. I think once he meets them, he'll feel a little more relaxed. My parents are one of the most chilliest parents. EVER. Unless you mess with their kids (any alike). I mean, all they want to know is his social security number, license number, ID, and registration. I'm pretty sure once those formalities are out of the way, they'll be more docile in the end.

He's a Marine. He's loud. Unintentionally, but he is. He wants and needs the invitation to spoil me, but I'm pretty sure he'll never need that invitation. He sys it all the time that he wants to do this and that.  I think he realized how genuine I am about him when he was quite for a bit and I kept blowing up his phone. I was so sad. I wanted more of him. I'd leave voice messages for him and such. To let him know that I was thinking of him at the point of time and to give him an update on what I was doing with myself. I know this probably sounds self-centered because it sounds that way to me at the moment. Well. More to come later. I think I want to document our conversations so I have them to read later on. I know that sounds creepy and obsessive. But what if we end up getting married and I think this would probably be the best gift ever. A reminder of where we came from and how far we've gotten.
