nothing atall

so i guess im taking a semester off. bah tuition due dates...if i hadn't of moved and had so much maddness parading about my head i would have been more on top of things.

i even went to drawing II thinking, yea drawing two, lets draw some fantastic shit! but my name wasnt called on roll. bah, at least i know what to bring next semester...

im single and it's strange, but i like it. i thought i'd be more upset for longer but i'm good already. i've been working at my g-parent's greenhouse for a bit now and already hate it. it's a good job, pays very well, working with plants is awesome...but the family thing is ridiculous. my nanny (g-ma) is all about hard work 24/7. she's the strongest old woman i've ever seen...she wakes up at 5 and doesnt quit working until it's dark. the business is at their home. they own about 7 greenhouses on their land...all filled with hundresd of plants. i'll call in sick and she'll drive up to my mom's to make sure im sick and be completely open about that's what she's doing. even then she says work makes you feel better and acts like im just being a baby. my papa just sits inside all day drinking from his keggerator (a keg / refrigerator) and making smart ass comments when i go inside for something...he's actually really funny until he's sloshed at about 5 or 6, then he's just fuckin mean.
but i cant quit because nanny made me promise to be there for her this year. at least until the summer is over.
 
that's true, i love working with plants. at home i have hundreds of cuttings sitting next to the morning sun window, waiting for roots. and at the end of the day, when i get off work, i feel exhausted...but that good exhausted feeling...and i smell like earth. i love it.
but if my family just wasnt so uptight and crazy it'd be the best job ever. after reading this it seems like im just whinny, but really, my g-parents are hard as hell to work for.
