So, marriage is AWESOME. Sex too.;)
I'll put up pictures later. My place is a mess- so cluttered! It's driving me nuts. But the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom are pretty much put together. But considering you have to walk through the pit of the living room to GET to those three rooms, it doesn't seem to matter. I'm too depressed by the mess by the time I get to the "clean" rooms.
We had our first fight. We missed our flight back from orlando. Jeremy claims my eyes rolled back into my head, but I was pretty impressed with myself. I didn't blow up, and only said one or two harsh things. But he got lucky later anyway, so it's all good.
I have to say, disney world was a little dissapointing. Well, it probably would have been more entertaining had I not gotten sick on the baby rides and so had to forgo any rides that swayed, jerked, or moved faster than I walked.
Ok, I better get back to work.
ug.
talk about hard to get up this morning. returning to work after your honeymoon.

engagement
So, I've finally put my engagement photos up. And we're only getting married in 56 days! (but who's counting?)

It looks like we are looking at our kids (of the future) in a park or something.

I'm tastey, or so I'm told.

This one was fun!

this one is the "scandelous pose"
people are like- wha--Jeremy and Kim? aren't they Catholic?

whisper whisper
(we actually couldn't stop laughing)
I'm really dissaponted at some of the people RSVPing 'no'. Damn friends in europe.
It won't be one of the "UD weddings" I've always heard about.
This planning has been a bitch. My mom threatened not to come b/c I have an "attitude."
We have yet to figure out what she is refering to. Also, I'm immature and ignorant and not taking care of her guests.
that's right, HER guests.
aren't I the one getting married?
Lucky me, we have christmas with her in a week.

But my jobs are keeping me afloat--I taught my kids how to balance chemical equations the other day! They were like "Miss! this is so easy!! I don tink Miss Well (the science teacher) know how to do this..."
the science teacher has been trying to teach them it for a week now, and it took me 15 minutes!

Ciao

I got my own insurance card. MY OWN. it has my name on it as principle carrier. so weird. of course, it doesn't kick in until october first, so I guess I'm not offically in real life until then.
speaking of insurance companies- they SUCK. I had an impacted and infected wisdom tooth (the last one to come out) and was so miserable (I had been waiting for my new insurance to kick in) but could feel my neck stiffening as the days went by due to the infection. needless to say I panicked and called my parents for the dental insurance stuff.
which turns out stopped covering me in MAY. so this was in AUGUST and I needed my tooth out now.
jeremy (thank God he works for the church) asked a friend if they new anyone and that same day I had my throbbing mouth checked out by an oral surgen who said he'd so the surgery probono. Talk about relief! all I could do was squeek out the words "thank you" between tears. if there's one thing I learned from my parents it was not to take hand outs. Jeremy had to really talk me out of my misery over not being able to pay. In the end we payed a little and baked the surgen and his office my famous chocolate chip cookies.
I wish that had been the end of it. I had a dry socket TWICE, and the second time was over labor day weekend and I had to call the surgen in on that sunday. It's amazing how much pain a little nerve can inflict on a person. Now, I just have a huge frickin' hole in my mouth. I'm so glad all I have to worry about now is food getting stuck in it!

had an interesting 'real life' shock today. two of my hispanic students, one mexican and one salvidoranian, were pissed off at each other. but when it came to me, they had two VERY different stories. I love them both and am with them all day and work so hard with them (they are two of my best students!) I didn't know who to believe. I tell you, 16 years of catholic school education sure made me gulibile. I had to turn it over to the assistant principle, who had to write up the situation b/c there were violence threats. In the end I think I believe the salvidoranian. Ever is so sweet. It would take a LOT to piss him off. Rigoberto has some brothers who have made a...memorible... reputation at the school.

on a different note, I gave a speech to the teachers today. I was so damn nervous I soaked the underarms of my shirt.
ok, I'm done.

TIRED
so, working 90 hours a week at three jobs SUCKS. I gave my two weeks at Harps, so I could babysit 4-year-old triplets. $10 an hour and only 20 hours a week? hell yeah!
jeremy is being so good. he's taken over all the domestic stuff for the next week or so until my two weeks are up at harps. he does the dishes, makes dinner, picks up max's unmentionables. so nice, let me tell you!
but damn I'm tired.
yesterday was such a weird day. I should have just turned around and went back home as soon as the lady behind me told me that my zipper in my skirt was all the way undone and my undies were in full view.
so, I saftey pinned the skirt together and went on with the day.
at harps that night I had a guy try and write a hot check, another lady short me $10, kept walking to the wrong place and locking myself out of my drawer, we were short a checker so it was BUSY and people were irritable. I just made up a little speach in my head if anyone complained "listen, I'm working 90 hours this week. next week will be the same. we are short a checker and short on my patience. you complain again and you'll be paying for MY groceries."
I'm so close to finishing kate's jacket! I wish I had some TIME. gr....
oh, and as far as wedding plans...you know, I never had a problem with my mother. NEVER. we have always been so close. now that I'm planning my wedding- I want to strangle her and all I do is complain about her.
why????
this pheonominon (spelling?) as well as the one at the grocery store where everyone comes to the front at the same time to check out really confuse me.
ok, so I'm at work, I think I should do something work related.
it sucks being non-certified. I'm basically a go-fer shadow.

Prayer backup
So I think God finally got to the H's in his prayers. Yesterday I got a job teaching ESL at a Jr. Highschool and then two hours later Jeremy proposed, and then this morning I started a part-time job at a grocery store!!
yea! go me! :)
it's ok to be self centered when I just got engaged, right??

so, I didn't kill him. just cried a little and talked things out.
he did mention that he has a ring though. but he's waiting for the oportune moment. He told me he had one thinking it would calm my worries, but now I'm just like 'Give it to me damn it!'
everytime he moves I think he's gonna ask.

See? this is why I don't want to know stuff like that. I want it all to be a suprise. ALL of it. He still is learning that. (he's not a fan of suprises.)

we've been working out for a week and a half! go us!

ooo...job interview to be ESL teacher...wish me luck!

murder
seriously, I'm going to kill jeremy. this is like the 3rd time where he's screwed up and it involves leaving me in the dust.
he can't go to julia's wedding.
that means I'm left to drive 16 hours alone in 48 hours, have to pay for gas (his dad was gonna pay) will have no one to dance with at the reception, and this is the third time he's done this kind of thing.
how many times do I have to tell him to WRITE STUFF DOWN AND LOOK AHEAD.
gawd, I'm so pissed, I could...I don't know, spit on his carpet right now...but then I'd step in it later, I know it...
damn I'm pissed!!!!!!!

oh, good news, I'll probably be teaching ESL in the fall!!! yea!!!!!!! great pay and my DREAM job!!!!!

but I'm too pissed at Jeremy to be happy anymore.

so, graduation was...long...kinda boring...and stressfull. I can't let myself think about my life then right now b/c I kind of get all teary eyed. it's over. no more 'girls nights' no more group studying in the computer lab...gah, I can't think about it.

so, I got an awesome apartment. terrific boyfriend (still not fiance...gr) wonderful landlords, interesting dog who thinks he knows it all...but no job, no friends other than jeremy...I feel bad, because I've become real clingy, but I think he understands. still job hunting. cleaning toilets for side money. I just hate cleaning toilets when I have a college degree. talk about depressing!
and everyone here is so slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.
in thier driving, talking, and getting back to you about employment! I swear if I have to write out yet another job application I'm going to shoot myself! and the fact that I have to call all the employers back all the time drives me up the wall. it wouldn't be so bad, but they all tell me how badly they need me, someone who speaks spanish, oh, I'm so valuable, we need your right away, fill out an application today! hurry!

and then I dont' hear from them for a week!

anyway, on the bright side, I've got a dog training book, so hopefully I can get max to stop whinning every time I move in the apartment. JEremy and I are going 'Power 90' workout. so in 90 days we should be sexy beasts. it feels great. not just physically either...I'm in much better shape than he is so it helps my ego too ;)

anywho, I'll have to post our 'before' 'during' and 'after' pics. I'm excited to see them.

ok, gotta shower and get to work.
lots of toilets to scrub.
good thing I went to school and worked up 30,000 in loans...dont' know how I'd do this work without that kind of prep. :S

I got the best apartment ever! a garage apartment in a great neighborhood, gas stove, new carpet, I get to have my puppy, my landlords have a one year old (I'll have my baby!) and only 325 a month! I'm so excited to move in...just hope I can get a job. there must be something wrong with my resume, like a major blaring error that I can't see b/c I've sent my resume into like a million places and no one is even calling. granted, I don't need a job NOW, just I was hoping to have SOMETHING for when I move in. but, a part time job will last me for while.
there is a DRE (director of religious education) position that I really really really hope I get...
cross your fingers!
meanwhile...

so close to graduating!
convocation:

thinking of the freedom so close at hand


I just love this picture...and rene!!


two things I do best? sleeping and talking..
that night:

that night...kate was celebrating a LITTLE too hard, if you know what I mean...
