Mana Glamour?

Life can be so mundane. People go oooh aaah when they hear that I'm studying abroad. But mana glamour? My summer has been a flat line since my roadtrip on the eastern seaboard and the Sabres games. The most exciting thing that has happened since then is the launching of the new (but cumbersome) T2 Parking System and the new credit card machine in my second home a.k.a. the parking office. And also finding my favorite brand of grapefruit juice on sale at Tops.

I can't catch World Cup games because I'm stuck at work from 9am-5pm. I catch little highlights online and open a tiny screen with pop-up updates while my boss isn't looking. I'm barely making ends meet with my bills piling up faster than my tiny paycheck. I put in overtime at work because I have nothing better to do , and work overtime after overtime just because I have nothing exciting to look forward to.

My plans to watch India Arie and Shakespeare in the Park somehow didn't work out. I ended up staying home making sushi for lunch the next day whilst watching TV. My scrapbooks sit at one side with my half knitted scarf. I might as well put curlers in my hair and become a grandma. I need some excitement in my life!

Afterthought: I did ride a mechanical bull at happy hour after work. My mantra is "You're only 21 once". I'll do everything I can do now which would seem inappropriate when I'm 40. Well, almost everything.
