A corset. That is right, I'm spending my first paycheck on a custom-made corset. A rather long-running dream of mine, and I finally decided to go ahead and do it. It's partly a good job to myself for getting my first job, a celebration present for getting our green cards, and for generally accomplishing quite a bit this semester without the help of ( Read more... )

I started putting up some of the info about my fantasy world on my website. The link to it is http://blackwidow120.bravehost.com for anyone who cares ( Read more... )

So here's the background for this little exercise ( Read more... )

I finally did some stuff that I've been meaning to do for a while. I finally turned in my honorization form to the honors office and picked up the letter my mom had sent to the letter hell in Letts basement which is open only at times when I'm at class or asleep ( Read more... )

I think these desk shifts are going to force me to write in this thing more. I'm not even through the first two hours and I'm already bored out of my mind. I also found out that Tom might have been or may still be in town, and I haven't seen him. This makes me sad, and slightly angry.

I'm almost through a very long 8 hour desk shift. The first 6 hours were definitely more interesting as I had the company of the ever intriguing Loralee. We made a trip to Safeway earlier today and got some stuff (read: sparkling grapejuice) to drink out of wine glasses while on duty. You will not believe how many side-long glances and double-takes ( Read more... )

I'm a working girl. My brother's response to this revalation... "no shit... it's a fucking milestone." I tend to agree with him on this one. My first real job ever. This isn't a "you do this, that, and the third and I'll pay you" sort of dealie that my mom likes to push on me during vacations. This is a, paid by the hour, did an interview, sort of ( Read more... )

I have done too many things to remember them all in the last two weeks I've been back at school. But to name a few, mostly to make myself feel like I've accomplished something, here goes (cut for length):
