Oh, holy Jesus.  I just got my first interview!!  It's for this position:

So, yeah.  I'm living in Hawaii ( Read more... )

I'm going offline down here in VA.  I'm leaving tomorrow for the Albany area and will have to rely on other people's computers, but that's okay.  Thank God and vacuum bags, but everything fits and fits snugly.  I've even discovered an ingenious way to get my bridesmaid dress into the city...vacuum bag it!  Although, to avoid lots of wrinkles, I won ( Read more... )

WE HAVE AN APARTMENT!!!

Ahem

So after getting a call from the landlord the same day as I filled out the application for this apartment, I get a call from Debbie who says "Yeah, the landlord says we can move in tomorrow!"

Oh, my GOD!

It's a one bedroom apartment on the first floor of an apartment tower right in the center of the city.  One block from ( Read more... )

Bleh.  I have cavities that need to be filled.  How irritating is that?  Still, getting some done today, and hopefully I can get them all done before I need to get out of here.  All I wanted was a simple cleaning...now I have to deal with getting novacaine at least twice...I hate novacaine.

Anywho, other things are going well.  My eyes are not ( Read more... )

So life down here continues to go by reasonably quietly.  I've been making tiny baby steps in the direction of being ready to go, but there's so much to do that my room looks like a demolition zone and I don't even have all my stuff with me!  However, progress is being made.  I've sold a great deal of my books (which super bummed me out, but what ( Read more... )

Ugh, I'm so upset with myself.  I thought that by this time I'd have my room all nice and neat, be sorting through stuff that I want to get rid of, have talked to everyone I needed to talk to, and have started being on top of things.  Meanwhile, my room's a disaster area, I feel nasty because I slept on the floor and woke up early only to stagger ( Read more... )

Holy hell, I've got so much to do.  And absolutely zero energy.  I mean, I'm so wiped or SOMETHING that I just can't get my act together.  The farthest I've gotten this morning is to drag myself around and straighten up the house.  But I've got to clean things up and start packing, because I have to have everything ready to go before Saturday.  ( Read more... )

Oy.  So these past few weeks have been kinda hectic, and I've fallen off the whole "doing-things" bandwagon.  Also, had some problems with electronic devices.  As such, I have a new AIM account (my old one was hacked and then something happened where Trillian would not let me create a new identity and UGH!!!) *ahem*...I have a new AIM account:   ( Read more... )

So maybe the whole not whining about my work schedule hasn't gone exactly the way I planned.  Most of this week I've been coming home, reading for a little while, and then falling asleep for a few hours.  When I wake up, of course, I feel great, but I have to go to sleep almost immediately in order to wake up on time the following morning.  I ( Read more... )
