Had to take a break from packing. Almost done with books; we're up to box #21 at this point (yes, I like to read - you got a problem with that?). Not only am I sick of packing, I am sick sick as the cold my little sister got from her students and brought here from Louisville has finally struck me down. That means no New Year's Eve plans with a ( Read more... )

Only a week 'til the Doctor Who Christmas special! Oh, and Christmas itself, I suppose.

(Guess which one I'm more excited for?)

So remember how I was going to complain all about Mom's crazy fruitless apartment search? Well, now I no longer need to because (drum roll please)...we have a place! Mom wanted a really safe neighborhood, so we'll be living in a two-bedroom duplex on the outermost edge of Bel Air (yes, as in Fresh Prince Of). All Mom's furniture and other ( Read more... )

Still haven't had any time to really spiff up this journal the way I want to, but just wanted to write a little something while I was still in this fantastic mood. I've been kind of reclusive by choice the past month or so, but something made me snap out of it this week and actually accept an invitation to a friend's birthday dinner last night.

...Yeah, so the whole blog thing didn't work out that great. Turns out I'm not fond of the idea of sharing myself with the entire internet; this little corner of LJ suits me just fine. I mean, I know who most of you are that read this, and you know who I am. I feel freer here to be my nerdy, fandom-obsessed self instead of some idealized, trying ( Read more... )

Long time no write, huh? Sorry I've been neglecting you; I've been trying to start a proper blog since everyone says that as a writer you've got to have one (I refuse to get a Twitter, though). I'll probably write on the blog more than on LJ, but I'll try to pop by here once in a while. I mean, where else am I going to keep up with all my ( Read more... )

Spring cleaning my tiny, tiny studio to make room for all the random junk (and books!) I'm sure to accumulate through the rest of 2010. Just threw away a metric ton of old job applications from 2008 and 2009. Felt somewhat therapeutic - one can't argue with the physical proof that I was trying, dammit. As always, am ever hopeful my luck will ( Read more... )

[Transcribed from my real life paper journal. Written upon arriving home at 2 AM after a friend's birthday shindig at a very noisy, very expensive, claustrophobically crowded WeHo bar ( Read more... )

Sorry it's been so damn long yet again, but I did in fact manage to score a seasonal part-time retail hell job!  The plus side: it's in the stockroom, so no dealing with customers "guests" (just like I'm a "team member" - can you tell I'm not cut out for the corporation-type life?).  The EXTREMELY EXTREMELY minus side: it's graveyard shift.  As in ( Read more... )
