well played grandma

a legitimate update

I feel like it's about time for me to update- it's only been months/year lol.

So as you all know I've moved home for a while. I also quit my job up in cow-town so right now I have no job. I've been looking, and had an interview at Romas last week, and it would be awesome if I got that job. Or really any job for that matter. Basically I need a source of income.

Really, I wouldn't have quit my job up north if I didn't feel like I had to. That was so stupid of my managers. It's not like they ever came right out and said "if you don't quit you'll be fired" but they made it pretty clear that they didn't approve of me commuting up. I don't see how it would have been to big of a deal- I'm still commuting up for school. Gas is killing me, but if I had a job up there that would probably at least pay for gas to get up there.

Sam is doing good. He's been fairly sick lately, but he's finally beginning to feel better. Things with him are going good- we've been together now for almost 10 months. If it weren't for him I think I totally would have flipped out when I was evicted, but he really helped me remember that my roommates had never proved to be someone I want to live with anyways, and that I had actually been really unhappy living with them the entire time we all lived together. I never really thought I would so much, but I really miss living with Camilla and Cindy. Things may have ended there really badly, but we were all living together for 2 years and there were a lot of good times. I was thinking about one time when HaWon lived with us too where in a single night we ordered food from the same delivery restaurant 4 times, each time increasing in the amount of food we got. The last time the driver came to the door it became a huge joke as to how we were getting to know each other so well. He didn't care though, since we always tipped them pretty well. We actually ordered from them about 4-5 times a week. I really miss living with them all.

that's about all that's going on right now :)

buffy vs. edward cullen

homeward bound... I guess

last night I found out just how little my roommates like/ trust me. One of them accused me or Sam of stealing $100 from her. the other then told me she'd take over my lease if I think I need to move out. I was crying most of the night and pretty much all morning. I know damn well neither of us took that money. I also know the one who lost it is pretty absent minded and most likely lost it. I'm not too opposed to the idea of moving out. Now I'm in my apartment "packing" but really I don't even know where to start so I'm just sitting here in shock.

smoking kills.

I had a bunch of banned commercials posted earlier today, but upon reviewing them I realized that some of them were not so nice... so I deleted that post and found the one commercial in the bunch of them that I actually meant to post. When I saw this one it shocked me... but once the shock wore off I laughed until I cried.... or cried until I laughed... either way.

the weirdest thing

so I was youtubing a second ago and found the strangest thing.  

I'm only posting pt. one, but there are like 8 different parts.  they should come up in related videos.  I think my favorite part that I've seen so far is in in part 2 when the captain shows up the first time. He looks like a drunken pirate!

I know this is a horrible first post in months, but I can't get enough of this dog. He cracks me up.

Layoffs :(

according to forbes.com there have been 337,625 since Nov.1 2008. Holy crap. 138,152 of those were in January alone.

also- check this out... http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2009/01/27/ap5972615.html

It blows my mind that the job market is so tight everywhere else, and yet totally open here in ghetto-town. I actually have 2 job interviews this week. Hopefully I get the one tomorrow and not the one on thursday, but honestly I'd be okay with either one... something to supplement my income :)

close your eyes... clear your heart..

So much has happened since I last wrote.

First, my roommate moved out. She wasn't actually deported, but she would have been if she stayed in the country.

Second, I have two job interviews this week... I don't know if I'm going for a new job, or a second job... either way I hope I get one of them!

Third, I redid my blog!

okay so- apparently not enough happened that I really had much to write about, but I felt like writing anyways...

I like this version... a lot...

there maybe some mild language... I don't know... I didn't actually listen to this before I put it up...

2009 already?

people keep talking to me about some month called "December." Yeah.... I don't think I've heard of it... sounds made up to me.

Dad and I went to court for that total crap speeding ticket I got. The Prosecutor said we could fight it if we wanted to, but she's never lost a case like this before, and regardless of whether or not I'm charged for the same offense the fine would be the same. So we paid it, and by 'we' I mean 'dad'. Thanks for that papa- I was able to pay my rent by myself this month, but I wouldn't have if I paid that ticket.

I've made a few goals, and being that it's the beginning of the year I guess you could call them New Years Resolutions. You COULD call them that, but I don't. I'd like to call them "I'm no longer crazy depressed and to prove it I'm going to do something with my life goals," but for short INLCDATPIIGTDSWMLG. yep. that's a good little nickname.

so anyways- my goals. First- Everyone in my house (myself included) are having financial problems, so to try and help this we're all trying to not eat out. I'm not really planning on cutting it out completely because if I did I wouldn't ever eat, but I am cutting it down a lot. maybe 2 times a month. that seems like a good amount.

second- totally cliche, but I want to get into better shape. I went to the doctor the other day and was distraught to find out that I had gained 10 pounds since the last time I went in however long ago that was. Camilla and I were talking about taking some fitness classes together at the local gym/ community college. I've started doing Pilates. I used to say that I really hated pilates, but I realized I've never really given it a fair try. I'm really liking it. I was surprised, but I actually really like pilates.

third- I'm moving on from my past and letting go of things. Some of you know I've started EMDR. For those of you who haven't heard of EMDR, here's a quick little video that I thought was kind of interesting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBtqWrs2-K0

I'm probably not going to be talking much about the EMDR here, or really anywhere else.... let's just say it's hard and I'm not sure I like it.... but thats really all I ever want to talk about it.

okay- so there are my INLCDATPIIGTDSWMLGs. Happy New Year everyone!
