Chris had Senior's last day this past Friday and I have been a wreck all week. I'm too emotional ... it's a curse ... I've been crying all week because my first born is about to graduate. Any song I hear on the radio or on a CD that will be in his slide show I break out into tears. Chris is like wtf when he sees me like that. Boys don't understand. I keep telling him wait until he has a daughter, then maybe he'll get an idea of what I'm going through now. I'm already prepared though. I just bought me a whole bunch of waterproof makeup for that day ... lol.
A few months ago I started making purple satin ribbon leis and I'm starting on the candy/condom leis as we speak. Condoms you say? Yeah, well Chris has a sense of humor, as well as his friends, so I'm alternating candy with the condoms in the leis for his male friends. I also got a cute ducky beach tube that I'm going to have our co-workers sign for him. A few of them will be off that night and are coming with me to the graduation ... I think they want to see me crying my ass off ... bastards.
Chris got a few letters from UH's Music Dept. for drumline practices and audition date(s). He's going to audition for quints. He has a little disadvantage because he's never played quints, only quads. PC is one of two or three schools that doesn't have them but it's not that much of a difference to play them either. He's considering auditioning for snare as well. He gets a tuition waiver if he's in both marching band and concert band ... I think the waiver is 1/3 off the tuition.
I haven't been feeling well and I had to take the whole day off today because I was feeling a relapse of last weeks flu. People been coming in to work with strep and pink eye and it's making me paranoid. I woke up this morning very congested and I just called in sick right away. I swear to God, if I get sick on graduation day I'm gonna kill someone. What gets me is that working in a restaurant, you SEND people home sick like that, not keep them and have them breathe all over shit ... come on now. Anyway, it feels REAL good being home today. I have the whole place to myself. Chris just left to practice on a set of quints the high school finally decided to get, Sianna is at her band practice at the high school, and Jonathan is off with his dad for his weekend visit. Peace and quiet ... just how I like it.
Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend ... have a great week as well!
