I applied for a job at the local Christian bookstore on a whim. I didn't know before I went there they were taking applications, so I thought, "Hmm...sign from God?" I had an informal interview with the owner who is very nice and she said she was going to pray over the applications and let God help her decide who she should hire since her ( Read more... )

I'm visiting Jill in Oxford right now! I helped her move all her stuff from one dorm to another right across the street. Ridiculous, right? Well, at more traditional universities, most sane people go home for the summer. I quit that ritual after I went back home after freshman year and Jill's not even trying it out. Yes, my writing is a little ( Read more... )

Just kidding! I graduated! And I just saw my proofs from Bob Knight and officially look like the most retarted graduate ever.

I'm back in GA now with my parents and the doggies. I'll update with more later.

My parents visited my last week -- oh what a joy that was. The day they arrived just so happened to also be the day that the maintenance Nazis stopped at my building? Coincidence? I think not, especially considering I had to leave Toby at the apartment that morning because it was too hot to leave him in the car and Erin and Amanda are not the ( Read more... )

Paige has informed me that Toby staying on the patio is no longer going to be possible. Prior to this, Erin and Amanda informed me that Toby staying at their apartment was no longer possible. My other options? Hmm...Well, Paige suggested I get rid of Toby. I would like to take this moment to thank Paige for the most intense waterworks I've ( Read more... )

I just want to take a moment to thank all the people who have helped me recently. In the darkest, toughest moments of your life you discover who your real friends are.

"Unemployable, that's what you are..." I'm pretty sure that's how the song goes. That's officially what I am. I have sent around 30 resumes and received -- drumroll -- nothing. Did you know that some places require a Master's Degree to be a secretary? I didn't know either until I tried applying and found out -- tada -- you're unqualified, ( Read more... )

Soooo...it's been a really hectic month. I don't think I've had a good night's sleep in a month or so because I've been getting used to Toby and vice versa and then there was the whole thing about the $100 fine and threat of eviction. We're laying low now. Blinds are drawn, we don't answer the door unless we know we are expecting someone or if ( Read more... )

I have a puppy now! He is sooooooo adorable! His name is Toby, he's about a foot tall, but most of that consists of his super-long legs. Toby is mostly a chocolate brown with streaks of caramel and a bit of whipped cream-white on his chest and his ears are very floppy and cute! He is half-mini pincher (sp?) and half cocker spaniel, which turns ( Read more... )

Went to M'Vorneen's Irish Pub in hot and happening C'ville! Whoop whoop!!! The town/mini-city is growing! We have our own strip-joint now! It's crazy!!! Anyway, I went out with April and Emily; Emily didn't get drunk -- big surprise -- but April certainly did. I ended up driving; still had three beers; still amazed at my tolerance. A guy ( Read more... )
