An update for you!

- Apartment is going well with Sammi and Sarah
- Done with school until January 2nd (still going for a business degree, but am still trying to find what will ultimately make me happy)
- Looking for a new job (right now I'm looking at Macy's and/or the new Office Depot that is opening near my apartment)
- Was too busy this past quarter/semester, so not taking any WSU classes next semester and am just going to focus on CBC
- Step-mom got arrested for dealing cocaine back in October, went to jail (hooray!)
- Found out in November she was cheating on my dad (so we think my dad is done with her, right?)
- Went to Gig Harbor/Lakewood for Thanksgiving break
- Step-mom was pre-released from jail Thanksgiving morning, havoc wreaking ensues
- Step-mom steals my younger step-sister's car and a few things from my father (including his safe, which had important documents in it, such as birth certificate and social security card)
- Step-mom then continues to e-mail my older step-sister, saying how she found God while in jail, and that she was walking in the hands of God, and that my dad and two step-sisters are with Satan
- Helped my dad and step-sister move out of the house, all the while packing up my car with non-perishable foods from her house (that's right, I stole mostly all of her food, and it was glorious)
- Dad offered to put me back on his health insurance
- The event of my step-mother officially going crazy was a life changing experience for me, and the reason behind this is because I was emotionally and mentally abused by this woman, but now every mean and cruel thing she said to me was all of the sudden void since it came from a crazy lady
- I felt fantastic about myself, and nothing could get me down
- Found out last Friday that my two step-sisters are talking to Jerriann, and that she's trying to turn her life around
- My father told me that if he's convinced that she has made some serious changes and that she's going to stay clean and sober and that if they think it's a good idea, they will try it again ('it' being their relationship, which has failed twice now)
- Told my father that she got her second chance from me, which she messed up, and I'm done dealing with yet another drug addicted parent
- Also told him that I plan on never talking to her again and that she is out of my life
- That is now two of my father's children that have disowned his wife (you would think that would say something, wouldn't you?)
- Disappointed that once again step-mother comes in first place and my brother, my sister and I are apparently not as important as the crazy lady
- Dad then continued to say how he MIGHT be in Yakima in Christmas, and not with his daughter who was planning on spending Christmas with him
- Made him aware of the fact that there's a good chance I won't be able to see my mother for Christmas since visiting days are only Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and Christmas is on a Tuesday
- Decided to see if they're going to allow visiting on Christmas day and tell my dad (in a more nice, not as blunt way) to fuck off :)
- Trying to diet and exercise more (and it's terribly hard around this time of year)

I have done much growing up in such a short time that I'm still trying to catch up with it. I love my roommates, my friends, my apartment, and most of the changes that have been happening within the last couple of months.

This update was much longer than expected. I don't even think many people read this. Oh well!

Just so everyone knows and they don't have to hear it from everyone else, Peter and I broke up. It was a mutual, non-dramatic break up and there were several reasons why, and if you want to know, you can ask me about it. I'm fine, though, both of us knew it would probably come one day (seeing as how he wants to settle down and I really dont want to). This gives me a chance to live life and explore other options. Hopefully we'll be able to be friends.

So yes, that means I am probably moving out as well (I mean, it would be awkward living with Peter and his parents).

So there you go. Now you know (and knowing is half the battle!)
