  • Took me long enough

    I've been sort of writing this post on and off for at least a week. it has taken several forms, a few of which were deleted purposely, and many of which were deleted accidentally due to my computer being a SHITTY DELL THAT CRASHES. anyway....life is pretty good i suppose. job's going well, i can get plenty of overtime if i so choose...so more money. heck yes! that means more shoes! and a new phone. on a new family plan. with Kara. which means we are related now. my phone is eco friendly. but more importantly: it is SUPER CUTIE CUTE. oh yeah. also, i met Chad at work. Chad is awesome. I love him to pieces. I told him that, like the first day I met him. Because he made an obscure reference to an old Whose Line episode, and I knew exactly what he was talking about. he quit, so i don't get to him as much, but we still hang out. we were out drinking, also with Kara and Scott and Jonathan, when i saw Thomas. Thomas and I live in the same city but normally only communicate through the interwebz. So it was all crazy, because he was there, and I was there, in person. (hey Thomas, you can blog now).
    I must be true to form, so I"ll make some lists. But not in that cheating way that Thomas suggested.

    Songs I Can Listen To Repeatedly and Never Tire Of Listening To Them (what a dumb list title)
    1. Hot-Blooded
    2. Jukebox Hero
    3. Dirty White Boy (all three by Foreigner)
    4. Open Arms
    5. Faithfully
    6. Don't Stop Believing (these three by Journey)
    7. Come Sail Away
    ....I decided maybe I should just stop this list and say that I grew up in the wrong decade.

    Things I Love Also
    1. FALL TV! OMG!
    2. shopping! yes. yes i do.
    3. mexican food
    4. sexy serial killers (don't worry about it)
    5. SCI FI. god yes. more please.
    6. Halloween!

    Which reminds me: I'm trying to figure out what I should be for Halloween, specifically.
    I want to finally show the world who I am: a TOTAL SCI FI NERD.
    I have chosen the Star Trek universe as that is the one closest to my geeky little heart.

    Here are some contenders:
    Kes
    Kes2371

    Nurse Chapel
    320x240

    Saavik
    saavik

    Captain Janeway
    kathryn-janeway

    Wow, just with the last part of this post I have demonstrated my extreme nerdiness. Anyway, tell me what you think, if you care in the slightest.
    Also

    I'd like to say that


    I like it when serial killers are HOT!

  • Job

    I has one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    funny-pictures-kittens-have-a-telemarketing-service


    It is something similar to that. Only I won't be selling stuff! I will be calling people who ordered stuff from the Wal-Mart website and confirming that they ordered it. Then filling out paperwork.
    Awesome things about it:
    1. Sounds simple enough. (Could be frustrating at times, but I doubt it will be difficult for me.)
    2. My title will be "Financial Analyst." That sounds important and intelligent.
    3. Guys who hired me are hot.
    4. $10.50 an hour! For something I have no experience in! This may not seem like much to some people, but when you have had NO JOB and been BROKE for a long time, then it may as well be $10 million an hour.
    5. Insurance after only 30 DAYS! WIN.
    6. Starts Monday (money soon!)
    7. Possibility of carpooling or eating lunch with Kelly, who works at a school nearby. Yay.
    8. I HAVE A FREAKING JOB!

    It isn't my dream job, but it offers decent pay and benefits, and maybe it will turn into something long-term.
    I have to especially thank Scott, who helped me get the job. Yay for knowing people who know people! Scott, when I get my first paycheck, I will be buying you some beers! Perhaps once everything is settled in the new apartment, we can have a "Our Apartment is Cute and All Three of Us Are Gainfully Employed" Party.

    Which reminds me, I have a new apartment. We have been moving since Sunday, and who knows how long it will be before we are completely settled in. I plan on working on it some tonight and all day tomorrow. I am glad I will be in an apt. with my best friend and another good friend (who are not messy, yay!). Our apartment is already starting to look cute. I still have to move a few random items from the old apt, including the cat. The cat is the thing I am most worried about. We only moved into the last apartment a year ago, and she yowled for 2 days because it was a new place. Hopefully it won't be as bad this time, because she has gotten better with having other people around, she knows Kara, I have my old bed back, which she loved, we will have a lot of the same furniture, and the apartment setup is exactly the same. We'll see. I'm going to work hard at making sure she doesn't piss off my roommates, so hopefully she won't be mean.

    Anyway, I am at my mom's doing laundry and going to play tennis with Thanh later before he moves to Little Rock. Later, peeps.

  • Being Diurnal is Overrated

    If you know what the word "diurnal" means, 5 points to you for being S-M-R-T YOU ARE SO SMART. Anyway....

    Today I have done really productive things, such as:

    1. sleep for 12 hours (8am-8pm)
    2. watch True Blood
    3. cuddle my cat
    4. eat chimichangas
    5. yell at the facebook picture uploader
    6. answer my phone
    7. make this list (lists are so awesome)

    So, last night Kara and Courtney were playing this game where they named Drew's junk using movie titles. I joined in. It was way fun. Some of the best ones were Big Trouble in Little China, Clueless, Big, and Free Willy (in my opinion). In the comments, please tell me what movie title you would name your PENIS or VAGINA. Sorry I couldn't help myself.

    I have three job interviews coming soon. I am very excited. Thanks to Scott for putting in a good word for me with his friends. Thanks to me for sending in those resumes and stuff. Wish me luck everyone.

    Seriously, I love watching Craig Ferguson lately. He has just started doing this bit where he runs back and forth shaking his fist at the audience while circus music plays. For some reason, it is HILARIOUS.

    P.S. I would name mine the Nomad. I also considered The Forbidden Kingdom, the Professional, Unforgettable, Snatch, and Stick It. Lol.

  • Bored

    I still don't have a job. I have had two interviews, one with Vista Health, and one with SARPA. I thought both went well. Haven't heard back yet. Hopefully I will hear soon. But I got the check from working at the fireworks tent, and my roommates both paid me for their part of the utilities, so  I should be good for a bit. Rent is paid and such. I always have credit cards to keep me afloat.
    Next month I am moving in with Kara and probably Alyssa. I am excited. Hopefully we don't drive each other crazy. I'm sure it will be fun.
    Today, I've been cleaning my apartment. I've also been rebuilding my music collection after losing all the songs on my old hard drive. Not fun but once I get all that back it will be great.

    I really don't have anything interesting to say. That is all.

    UPDATE: I have an interview with Bost tomorrow afternoon! Well, more like today, but whatever. HOORAY!
