Today. Has. Sucked.
Last night I wrote THREE THOUSAND WORDS in two hours for an exam that I didn't anticipate would be so huge. Three thousand words is a lot. Especially on just one subject. Five hundred words is usually what's asked for on these kinds of things, but seeing as my teacher has spotted a few 'slackers' he's decided to take it out on everyone.
College is hard. Having a child is hard. Juggling both is nearly impossible. Especially when you mix in a practically full time job.
But today I woke up exhausted from the mental anguish that I suffered through yesterday. Jesse went to get breakfast and everything was fine and dandy until he came back. He switched our cars around (we have designated parking, one apartment per parking spot) and that in and of itself got on my nerves.
When he got back upstairs and I asked him where he planned on going today when he PROMISED we'd clean the apartment and relax as a family today for the first time in months, he informed me that he was going to hang out with the lowest scum of the earth, his best friend.
I wouldn't hate him so much if he wasn't manipulative, rude, uncaring, and completely incompetent of the fact that Jesse has a family and therefor can't do all of the stupid, childish things, that he used to.
So, Jesse's been gone since ten o'clock this morning, and his idiot 'bestfriend' STILL isn't even around to see him. He has no respect for anyone's time but his own.
So what did I do today? I cried for a good hour or two while James really just watched, occasionally joining in, and then when Jesse's dad came over to watch James, I headed to the city to let out my frustrations and buy things.
I've developed this horrible habit of spending a lot of money whenever I'm upset (which is often enough to be a bad habit) and today was no different. First, I went to Barnes and Noble. I purchased only one book for James, and then went on to my next destination. I went into Children's Place, and this store doesn't have very many options at all, so then I went to Crazy 8, where I bought quite a few cute things for James. Next, I went to Carter's which is by far my favorite store. I spent about 57 dollars and everything was fifty percent off. Also, for every fifty dollars you spend, you get a ten dollar coupon that lasts a few months and is activated the next day. It's AWESOME, to say in the least.
After shopping, I went to Pancheros of course, had myself a burrito, and then got a haircut and went to Walmart.
Walmart was TERRIFYING. This whole EBT breakdown had a lot of people upset and freaking out.
And to add onto the stresses of the day, Jesse called me during my haircut. When my head was under a sink, and I couldn't really answer. He called about fifty times (I thought only girls did that?) and was pretty grumpy by the time I was finally able to answer the phone.
I was still really upset at him at this point, seeing as he'd been gone all morning and Still didn't plan on being home until late that evening.
After all of my errands were done and my haircut was complete. I went home to show James all of the cool stuff I got him and wait for Jesse to get home so I could make him sleep on the couch.
Luckily, he made it home before eight o'clock. (Which was the time that I told him he should hope to be home by or he'd be sleeping in the living room, on the couch, for as long as I saw fit) He made it home at seven thirty! Yay for him.
Upon walking into the apartment, he looked bummed. His best friend, the idiot, did actually stop by to visit him, but left a half an hour later.
Jesse concluded that his 'friend' was a jerk, and that he was wrong. (FINALLY)
So we finished the night with World War Z and cookies.
I don't have any pictures to post today, seeing as I've been doing homework all week and haven't had the time, but next time I'll try to post the awkward blog! With all of the pictures of James that are just too ridiculous to get rid of.
