whew.

how nerve-wracking.

as you may or may not remember, today is my interview for the apprenticeship. i'll be leaving in 45minutes to an hour. i will be driving my friend's car, but that did not come easy, even though it was planned in advance and every accomadation was made on my part "i'll drive you to work (she's supposed to be there at 6:30).

i'd asked her about it the day i found out and she said to just to keep reminding her. i did. not to an annoying extent. when she spoke on friday she mentioned doing dinner on sunday. i called on sunday and got her machine. left a nice message. i called on tuesday afternoon. left a nice message. it's evening. it's 7. it's 8. i leave a txt letting her know that i am at the hippies, she only lives 10 blocks from there. it's 9. i call again. get machine. don't leave message. it's 10pm, i go home freaking out and tense, pull up bus schedules, taxi pages, etc. to try to figure this out.

i take a shower. i chillax. i eat ice cream. i watch tv and fall asleep alarms set for 5:30 to start on my morning adventure. i wake up and there is a txt from her late last night that she's dropping off the car in the morning. i txt back at 5:45 and try to sleep a bit more. i rested. then. about 6:30/45 i got up and checked for the key and it wasn't there. so i tried to rest more while really just freaking out and have a horrible tension headache still. a bit past 7 i get up to get ready, giving in to the fact that i might have to pay a lot for a cab and possibly be late.

but the key was where she said it would be. and i can see her car from my window. what an ordeal. i was hoping blogging it out would help me feel a bit better. and i do.

i am ready to take on my day. i have delicious coffee. i have an outfit ready. i'm gonna make some breakfast and pack a lunch and get my stuff together and go and have a great day of 9-3 at arbor school and then therapy right after and then drop the car off and take it from there!
