Yesterday=Good Day, Today=Sucks Ass

God I love that song by Tim McGraw and Nelly (the name just slips my mind at the moment…). I can’t relate to it (thank God), but it’s so pretty.

Anyway, yesterday was a good day for the most part. Went around noon with Noelia to get our hair cut. Though the woman’s damn charm bracelet kept getting caught in my hair (and she didn’t gently untangle it), I thought my hair came out the way I wanted it. It was fro-y since it was just wet and then air dried, so I couldn’t really tell at the salon what it looked like. I get home, flat-iron it, and notice the front is all chopped at different levels. Then, I notice she didn’t cut the shortest layer the length I wanted it…it was way too long. Nobody could even tell I cut it, and that’s because I got it layered . Mario was all excited when I told him, and when he got home and I pulled my hair out of the clip it was in, his smile slowly faded in to one of confusion and says, “It…looks the same, Babe”, and kinda made a face like: . So that was disappointing, but at least I got all the split ends cut off (she cut off about 1-2 inches) . If I’m brave enough, I’ll fix the front and cut it to where I wanted it. I haven’t done that in forever so I may just not touch it. I’m hoping if/when I get my highlights this weekend that it’ll look “better”.

Oh Lordy…the song that’s currently on VH1 is the reason why I loathe most hip/hop/rap *shudders*. Let’s just say it’s 3 females…

*cough* Mary called while I’d been fixing my hair and told me the Income Tax place had called Sonia yet again. Why they were calling to her house and not ours is beyond me. They called Mary after they called Sonia the first time (or did Mary return their call? Don’t remember) and they asked for Yadira [my maiden name here]. I was like, “WHAT?!?” I don’t think the woman doing our taxes did anything right at all. I don’t know what the point of her asking for all our info was if she was just going to get my name wrong and our phone number wrong too, obviously. She could barely speak an ounce of English to make matters worse. I had to scrape up the bit of Spanish I could remember just to successfully get our taxes filed. So, I called back and was preparing to bitch somebody out, when the lady told me our refund check was in. Yay! I called Mario and he was all thrilled of course. He’s got plans for that money. We were planning to pay off Mario’s school loan, the $51.11 I owe Avon from when I was working for them (long story) and the rest was going towards fixing the Prelude and possibly selling it and towards paying off a good chunk of the Sentra. We talked about it last night and decided we’d spend a little bit “for ourselves”. We’ve always used our refunds for things we need (the cars, kitchen remodeling, bills, etc.), hardly ever for anything we “want”. So we’ll see.

After I picked up Eenan, we went back home and we went back to the salon with Noelia so Eenan could get a haircut. Then we just chilled out here at home and when I was going to blog, I noticed my stupid site was down…again. I really, really need to find new hosting. I just hate the whole moving process. I’ve never backed up my site from the server (I have everything backed up on my computer…except Greymatter and Megabook) and wanted to know–how do you back up your site so your whole guestbook and blogging tools (in my case, Greymatter) stay intact and you can just upload them to the new server? I would hate having to re-install a new Megabook and Greymatter. Blah. I need to find some place for cheap ($4-7 a month) that has a good amount of space like Pixiehost (500mb space, 40gigs bandwith), especially since I’ll be hosting John and all his flash stuff. I’m so not looking foward to researching everything again, and definetly not looking foward to possibly getting screwed for the 4th time, once again.

So I guess you can say my bad luck started last night. Today, I found out I may have lost Eenan’s glasses. Lovely. Mario couldn’t get the darn refund check deposited because I didn’t sign it (idiot) so now we have to wait. Mary called, and now I have to pick up Yazmin from school probably all week. Not fun. I don’t mind picking her up, it’s the waiting a whole hour to get back home after picking up all the kids. I don’t even know till when I’m supposed to pick them up actually. I’m starting to hate the whole driving thing. Especially since all I do is drop Eenan off, come back, pick him up, come back. If I went to the mall or something it would be much more enjoyable. But of course, I have no license and God forbid I get stopped. I had a dream about that last night actually. I’m going to have to be so careful today — I’m scared shitless that I’ll get stopped and be like, “I’m an unlicensed driver, hi!”

Hopefully the rest of the day gets better. I’m so ready to hit something…

“Over and Over Again” is the song you’re thinking of. 🙂 And you guys really should use your refund on something you want. We always use personal money (like birthday and Christmas, cause we don’t get a tax refund) on bills and whatnot – and it sucks. Take care!
