Well...it's been a hot minute since my last post. Life throws curve balls, and you just try to deal with them as best as you can. I'll probably post after the GRE's (beginning of December), because I have no time to between now and then. Here's what I've learned/thought recently ( Read more... )

Unfortunate news, readers.  My fish of over 14 months, Sir Rufus Merriweather Rutherford III, passed away on Friday evening.  He was a good fish.  Well, as good of a fish as you can get out of a beta.  It wasn't a surprise - all week he had been floating sideways at the bottom.  I had been waiting for him to pass for about 9 months now (he had many ( Read more... )

I don't quite know how I feel about The Killers new song "When You Were Young."  I know I love it by default because it's by The Killers, and they can do no wrong, yet it's very different and I don't know what to think.  Oh bother ( Read more... )

...assuming I know where I am during said break.  In case you, loyal dear reader, does not already know, my mother, Rita, is a crazy "B."  We got into another huge argument after having not spoken in 7.5 weeks (I was seriously trying to go for over 2 months but whatever) and the short story version is she terminated my cell phone plan 30 minutes ( Read more... )

I'm having a little breakdown.  This is not good because it's only August 30.   I need to get my shit together if I want to make it across that stage come May.  I think I just need to breathe.  And learn to say no.

So I made it through H.R. Training (quite fun and I love my coworkers) and R.A. Training (soooooooo painful...but I love my staff).  I'm so fucking exhausted words can't describe.  However, we got raises!  75 cents an hour!  This is an extra 600 bucks a year for me!!!!!!!!  Considering how shitty gas is right now...and how shitty Family Solutions ( Read more... )

So...I'm 21!!!!!  It was a fantastic bar-hopping celebration.  Luckily, my complicated mistress Danielle came down from NJ and she, Cherelle, Bryant and I went to 4 different bars in F'burg after a very embarassing dinner at Applebees (Sex toys, Kate...seriously ( Read more... )

IT'S MY 21st, BITCHES!!!!

WHOOT!!!  HOLLER!!!

I saw Fiona on Monday.  It was every amazing word in my GRE Vocab Book that I can think of.  I am in love.  Pure, unadulterated, sweet, sweet love with Miss Apple.  And she's on heroin.  I know there are stage theatrics and then there is when drugs kick in and make you crazy.  She was roughly 2 shades past the latter.  However, it made it even ( Read more... )

Well....SLP is officially over.  Sadly, I won't be officially out of Framar and into my apartment until Monday (I'm just all sorts of slacking is my excuse - not that that is one).  For any other Retired SLP'ers who read this I just want to say thank you for making this the best summer of my life.  I hope that nothing changes between us all when ( Read more... )
