His name is (currently) Jackson, he's white with a funny little "y"-shaped grey mark on the top of his head, about 10 lbs., very friendly and curious, and talks all the time. I got him at the Humane Society today and I'm totally in love!! I would post a pic but my camera still won't download to my computer, so you'll just have to come see him in ( Read more... )

Wow. No physical labor for over a year and then jumping back into it is, to say the least, punishing. I know I'll hurt tomorrow. But the work is fun and I like my boss and she made me a sandwich while I was busting ass so I think things will be good at this job. Except I fucked up a cookie batch, which sucked. On my FIRST DAY!!! But she didn' ( Read more... )

I had an "interview" today for the job I found out about on Tuesday. I'm gonna be working at the bakery from 10pm-4am monday, wednesday, and thursday. So if anyone's in the area of NE Hancock and MLK in the wee hours, feel free to stop by! I'll give you cookies... I think it'll be fun; I'm kind of excited to re-enter the workforce, strangely ( Read more... )

As Mark said, "staying here turned a road trip into an actual vacation". It's been very nice and ( Read more... )

I thought this looked interesting. Not that I really understand it but, that's true of many things.

So I woke up this morning to the sensation of my neck and shoulder muscles spazzing out and locking up. I can't turn my head very far to either side, can hardly look down, and can't look up at all. It honestly feels like there are lead weights on my upper back that are preventing me from any range of motion. Anyone have ideas on how to alleviate ( Read more... )

Over 1100 miles through this great state later... and I managed to not kill my mother!! We had a fantastic time. The landscape was spectacular, we had killer music, gas mileage in Joan is amazing, the ranch was far beyond any expectations that I had, I got to see Sabrina and Oleena and spend some time in Ashland, got offered meth for the first ( Read more... )

Yet another final today. Am I prepared? No. Did I study? Not nearly enough. I think this is gonna be the term of C's and I'm ok with it. I will pass all my classes and that's cool with me. Wish I didn't have to go to school this summer but I need the financial aid, and that's the only reason I'm going. Because I certainly don't want to ( Read more... )
