Getting back to Driving

I had awaken late today, only because I had slept around 7am San Diego time. This means I didn’t sleep for over a long time. I had been exhausted from my plane trip and since I was really sleep deprived I wasn’t able to get back to working mode. I didn’t do much for the most part of the day time, but in the afternoon I went with my mom and drove my sister to work. I also found out where another prominent Kiwanian lived since that’s where my sister worked. She did basic things and I didn’t really think that it was worth her getting that job since it would cost more money to drive back and forth from her job and school in gas than she got paid for. She only worked for a short time so it wasn’t like she was getting paid lots of money either. But I guess that it does count for experience and if she needs a reference on her resume it would be good to have that kind of experience.

My goal today was to get some stuff done. I mean that’s actually the goal for my spring break. So today I was working and tried to fix my copy machine. I had thought that it would be a quick just buy some ink and it would be fixed, but obviously it wasn’t that simple. I think that there are some serious problems with that machine that I won’t ever be able to fix or find out. There always have been problems with it ever since we bought that shitty ass machine. It almost feels better just to buy a new machine to replace the one we have. It was an expensive piece of machinery so we don’t want to just toss it to the side of the street. But it’s also costing a lot in maintenance. But anyways, I took my sisters to Costco, wal-mart, Fry’s electronics, and it started to rain today. It was nice going shopping for all the things that I used to buy. It was weird since I was using my money that I had brought from Japan and instead of using the family money to buy things. It was like I was treating my sisters to a shopping spree and they really did go on a shopping spree. They haven’t been shopping in a long time so I think they felt good spending money and getting some new stuff. We didn’t buy anything at Fry’s, but I did check out the prices of the things that I wanted to get. My sister has a friend who works there so he could hook me up with an Employee discount. How great is that? We bought a boat load of stuff at Costco, for which I won’t use any of it. And we got some things at Wal-mart that I might use later, but most likely will never use. It was actually pretty tiring doing all that shopping and since I was already fatigued I didn’t end up feeling better. But it also felt good to drive. I wouldn’t say I missed my car, but it does feel good getting to drive it again. It feels like it’s still brand new and rides smoothly. It was wonderful and very enjoyable. I didn’t have any appointments to meet up with my friends today, which is probably the only day this week that this occurrence would happen. I would call this a family day though since it was a main reason for me to go back to San Diego.
