So.
I’m going to be brutally honest — I haven’t been updating here because my current Life Story is so unbearably pitiful I can barely stand to live it, let alone write about it.
Also, if you use the internets but you don’t have the money to pay for it? They turn it off.
I am a mess.
And here’s why:

‘Cause everything is Rent….

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people openly discuss money — particularly the actual dollar amount , how much they earn.
I don’t like talking about money because it’s rude.  Because I make less than everyone in the world. (That’s right.! Everyone!)  Because it reminds me of the mistakes I make with the little [...]

I’m tellin’ ya! For the last time!

My supervisor at Best Buy, whom I adored, transferred to the Greenwood store before I left for vacation.  With his position left open, it was assumed that I would apply for it.  I did not.  As a result, I have been bombarded with questions as to why I didn’t.  It’s really hard to explain the answer, as it [...]

The times I go into work hating my job is very [...]

I believe it was you, Jody, who said on the phone today, after a brief pause…
“So…how’s the quarter-life crisis going?”
It’s the second time the phrase has been uttered in my direction this week.  The first was made by my mother, who said: “Maybe if you’re going through some quarter-life crisis, you should just come home.” [...]

Freefallin’

I’m looking down on 7th and Walnut at bar-goers stumbling out of Kilroy’s Sports.  Tonight, many are in costume: a slutty angel, a man in drag, Fratty McFrat-Frat…
Me, I’m dressed up as “Music dork in glasses and cashmere cardigan, working an overnight shift.”

Jenn, on the Job Search.
I’m finding that, when you work 50-some hours a week, the energy [...]

i am laughing…

Life’s starting to shape up.  Not that Life was terribly out-of-shape to begin with.  More like Life was just getting lazy, sitting on the couch watching Bravo’s Being Bobby Brown marathon, and then It just figured out that going for a brisk walk in the sunshine feels really good, and started working out again.  That [...]

Officially…hit…the 4 am wall.
Uggggggggg! (a la Charlie Brown)
Thus, I write to stay awake, and you will read it and comment gleefully.
Random Updates on Various Aspects of My Life:
Work: As of today, I work full-time in the media department at Best Buy.  I still work at WTTS.  Yes, this does mean I will be a workaholic, working upwards to 50 [...]
