“And I’m prettier than her!”
– Me reverting back to middle school when I found out the girl I was hired with made it to server before me. I am 12 years old. I am also very upset. I feel that I put a lot in to my job and I am truly one of the best employees there when it comes to teamwork and other buzz words managers use. I...

16 & Pregnant
Wow the Ashley adoption episode was rough. I’m sitting here in my snuggie, eating pizza and crying watching Ashley cry over giving up her baby. OH LORD MAKE IT STOP. I can’t watch any more Teen Mom/16 & Pregnant. Damn you, MTV marathons on my day off.
worst day
Today on my way out of the apartment we didn’t realize I had a flat tire until I was stuck on a patch of ice. I had to call AAA to come out and change it in 10 inches of snow while everyone around me was getting pissy because I was blocking an entrance to the apartment. Then I bought a bookcase and it took two hours to build, only to fall apart as soon as we stood it up.
Ughhh.
Snowed In
Technically this is the second time we’ve been snowed in today. Jacob and I were snowed in at my parent’s house this morning but I absolutely have to go to work tomorrow if they’re open so we had to get home. We left and drove for 3 hours on roads that were barely plowed. It was terrifying. Probably one of the scarier things I’ve ever done. We arrived alive and are now...
For Christmas
I received, among other things, a snuggie and a humidifier.
I’m sorry, I can’t hear your laughing over how awesome I am.

The s-word
I said the s-word today on the phone with my mom. I thought she didn’t notice but at the end of our call she said “Did you say a bad word earlier?” That’s the first bad word I’ve ever said around my mom. Her image of the perfect daughter is now ruined. Just kidding, it was never there. Anyway, now my mom knows about my problem with overusing the s-word. Merry...

Good News
The small kitten from our last foster litter has been adopted! His brother is still at the shelter but I’m confident he’ll find a home soon. I’m glad the smaller cat was adopted first. Remember when we thought we’d have to put him down? Nope! He’s at his new home now.
I’m so happy!
Last call for Christmas cards
I have 8 left! If anyone would like a Cleo Christmas card please message me your address!

“I never thought my job description would include ‘lobster grim...”
– Me today to a coworker.
No, seriously. Today I had to fish out a lobster and carry him to the trash can after his death. He died of natural causes in the tank instead of being eaten. RIP lobster. You will (probably not be) missed.

Our relationship summed up:
Boyfriend while playing Trivial Pursuit: This is easy. Which two actors directed Star Trek movies?
Zac and Jacob: William Shatner and...?
Me: It's Leonard Nimoy! So easy. He is Spock!
Jacob: Sorry, I have a life and I go outside.

Public Health/Library Science = NEVER GONNA GET...
I just learned that most master’s programs for public health, including Chapel Hill’s, want you to have at least two years full time experience in public health before you even enter the master’s program. Can’t a girl just go into a master’s degree right out of college? Damn!

This morning
I woke up and said to boyfriend “You have stains all over your shirt” thinking that they were there previously. He freaked out and said they weren’t there yesterday. Then we noticed there were small stains on my sheets, my pillow and down comforter.
The stain does not smell so it’s not cat pee or vomit. It wasn’t wet to the touch. It’s amber in color. Boyfriend...

woooo!
I went to the assistant provost at UNCA today and told her about my financial aid problem. She told me I have up until the last day of add/drop to pay the $1200. Jacob gets his student loan money on the first day of classes. Add/drop is three days after that. So Jacob is going to cut me a check for $1200 out of his loan money, I’m going to pay the school and get my own financial aid money to...
Christmas cards
I ordered 40 Christmas cards and I do not have 40 friends, so if some of my tumblr friends would like a Christmas card please leave it in my ask box! I can’t think of anyone that wouldn’t want Cleo’s miserable reindeer face on their table this holiday season. Drop a note in my askbox with your address!
