Life is good. :]

Everything!

Now I'm stuck on the 11 pm-7 am shift and I want to die a little bit. Right around 4, I can hear my body saying "Fuck you! Go to sleep!"

I think I can feel the metal plate in my arm and it's kind of weird.

One week down, 5 more to go.

So, I've been kind of upset lately about not having any friends that live here...
But...
I just bought a GTI today and it's better than having friends. [Here that is...]

Now I can stop looking for a boyfriend/potential husband because I'm in love.

They just remind you of all the people that should be there but aren't able to.
I'm missing a Christmas card.
I'm missing a name from another.
I'm buying gifts for one less this year.

Bah Humbug.

And in other news...Shannon's sister is getting married.
She asked me to be a bridesmaid so I said ok. She then told me I would be paired up with Shannon. That's cool, we're friends. Then, she told me that Lareina is also a bridesmaid.
Lareina is Shannon's ex-girlfriend who called him constantly for a month straight telling him how much she was in love with him and how he's the only guy she ever wants to be with. After finding out about this, I called her and tried to solve this in a mature manner, but, when she told me that I'm just jealous that he's still in love with her. At that point I kind of lost it, calling her names that I don't think even made sense. I don't think anything I said even made sense. I then proceeded to tell her that if I ever saw her I'd slash her tires a beat her fucking pathetic face in.

Awesome!

I told some guys at work about it and one guy, Mulvaney said that she's probably trying to get a video to send to America's Funniest Home Videos. Uh, I think it's more like America's Most Wanted! They said they'd look for me at Sarpy County Jail and that'd they'd bail me out. Sweet. I've grown pretty accustomed to jail life so I think I can hack it.

Look for me on AMW around May 5th! It'll be my big TV debut!

Immigration court judge is sworn in

A former military trial judge was sworn in Friday to preside over the Omaha-based immigration court.

Jack L. Anderson was sworn in at the Executive Office for Immigration Review in Falls Church, Va. He will preside over the immigration court that opened in late October, using visiting judges and video conferences.

Omaha's new immigration court, near Eppley Airfield at 1717 Ave. H, serves Nebraska and Iowa.

Anderson and another judge, still to be appointed, will be supported by seven staff members in the new court. Before, the area's immigration cases were handled by a Chicago-based judge. - Cindy Gonzalez

So, we got a 5 month old Burro from the Bureau of Land Management last Monday. She's adorable and I love her. We named her Bella, but I still refuse to call her anything but Baby Donkey. [That's my horse Lakota in the picture.]

So yesterday I graduated from training for work. It was pretty awesome. Especially when Sgt. Hollabeck called me up as "Alycia 'The Asassin' Anderson". I felt like a badass in the uniform too. :]

I'll put pictures up later on.

The uniform came in handy for the whole Cop and Robber type fantasy. ;] Haha.

So, in order to preserve my relationship...

I'm going to sign up for Anger Management classes and go see a pshycologist!

Apparently I'm pissed off all the time unless I'm at work, and after Shannon told me a few things, my Mom came out as well and told me I'm not always easy to be around. So, Monday, I'm going to see if I can get a referal so I can get it all started.

I graduate from training on the 12th and I start working by myself. :]

So I've been working at the County Jail for about four weeks now. I have to say it's probably the most interesting job ever.

I worked in some female mods and there a quite a few prostitutes. The funniest part about it is that they have no problem talking about all the things they have done. A little too much information sometimes, but they've been pretty much harmless.

The guys are just as funny. At first they made comments about sex and pussy and made little cat calls, but they soon realized I'm fairly tough even though I'm small. I sent a couple guys to lockdown for being assholes, then they started being a little more respectful. I worked overnights last week and I went in to do my rounds and the guys in the mod I worked in kept saying "Officer Anderson! We miss you! Come back and work in our mod!" I don't think I'm going to have to many issues with them.

I worked in a unit with inmates that have to have handcuffs, leg shackles and a belly chain when they leave their room, and they're in their room for 23 hours a day. They like to talk shit a lot more than the others. Roy Ellis is in their while he's waiting to go to trial. (He's a big murderer from Omaha.) It's kind of creepy because he has no emotion whatsoever and a guy who just shot a cop is in that unit too.

I met a guy named Larry Johnson, who isn't all there. He is known as the "Poopy Picasso" because he likes to make pictures on his wall with his poop and also put it on his face like war paint. Well, he called me over to get him a glass of water, so I put my gloves and went to his cell and opened up the latch to get his cup, where I noticed he had pooped in the corner of his room. I went and got his water and when I had got back to his cell, he had placed a turd on the latch.

I will admit that that's the first time I've ever been offered a piece of poop. I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time.

There are already rumors about me at work. Apparently I'm going to get pregnant by an officer or inmate withing six months and I'm not going to be able to handle and quit after my first day by myself. Doesn't bother me though, because they're just going to look like idiots when I prove them wrong.

I got a job as a Corrections Officer, and I start on the 28th.

So I just got home from surgery about four hours ago. I had bone spurs on both of my feet. (It looked like I had an ankle below my ankle.) I finally went into the doctor and talked about it to them, and earlier today I went in and they basically took a tiny chisel and hammer and took them off. I'll finally have normal looking feet! I look retarded trying to walk now and it talked me a good five minutes to get to the bathroom and back. One of them bled, a lot. So for the next week or so, I get to sit on the couch and have my mother and sister at my beck and call. Haha.

For our one year anniversary next month, we're going to get some crazy 70's clothes from Goodwill and go out to eat. I'm super pumped. I'm pretty amazed that I've been with him for a year. Before, I never dated anyone that I could picture dating for this amount of time. I love him.Shannon and I are engaged.

I find out the beginning of next month about the Corrections Officer job. :)

I got my oil changed on my car, the filter failed, and now I need a new engine!
wOOt!
Luckily, Firestone is the one that fucked it up, so they have to pay for it.
And then, when the guy towed my car to the privately owned Firestone, he failed to take the parking brake off.
What a fucking genius.

At least I won't have to replace my timing belt and spark plugs anymore...


It just sucks having to wait for the claims adjuster to go look at it, and then get in contact with Firestone, and then to find a new engine for my car, and then to have it actually put it in.

I'm applying to be a Corrections Officer for Douglas County Jails.
It's a long shot, seeing as I'm 20, a female, and have a rather small build.
But, nonetheless, It's worth it to apply.



How awesome would that be. :)



On another note, boys are causing more and more confusion.
Do I go with the thirty year old that my friends set me up with that's awesome, has a career, is established and my friends actually like?
Or, stay with the guy that I've been with for 10 months, who I can't bring around my friends because they can't stand him, and has no real future. [Or at least one that I can see.]



Should be fairly easy to decide, but it isn't.

My period is sucking the life out of me.

Today at 3:40 am, my grandpa died.

About an hour ago, I found out that my friend from California died.

Ring or puppy?

I think I want both.
We'll just have to wait and see...

Taking baby steps to return to a blonde.

Oh dear. I hope my hair doesn't fall out.

Urban Outfitters is opening on Omaha and they're having a free show with Tilly and the Wall. Minus the Bear is coming in October and the Mountain Goats are coming in November. I'm fucking excited.

I find out today about the Apple job. I'm a tad anxious. Either way, I think I'm going to apply at U.O. part time. Granted, my entire paycheck will probably go right back to the store. I don't mind.

One more thing. Once my bills are paid off, I'm going to get a crotch rocket. It's going to be amazing, and Shannon's going to teach me how to drive it.

Well maybe one more thing...

I'm going to play the drums. :]
