Preserves

In my opinion, MUCH better than jelly.

I havent posted in a few days, but ive been moving and my computer is still in pieces.

My clothes are (almost) all put away, and Loki-cat seems to be adjusting unusually well.  I think hes happy to have a big house again.  He figured out how to open all the doors, so theres no keeping him cooped up.  At all.

Ive made the painful decision to withdraw from painting, making this my third failed attempt.  I know I know.  Im going to talk to my professor about possibly taking an incomplete and finishing next semester or over summer.  Much better option.

I am now a member of the Craft Time Continuum.  Yes.  More to come on that later.  We meet at Brewerie <3  Strawberry Wheat is sooooo good, and local-ish!

Smileys

• Yay stem cell research!! <3Obama
• Microbrews
• Im getting my snakebites whether work likes them or not
• kitty cat snuggles <3
• Next tattoo when i get my Deposit back.
• I left my dad a cute little note on the bathroom mirror like i did when i was a kid.
• Jimmy Fallon on Late Night

Boo

• The news anchors saying “mr. obama.”
• Octomom.

*frustrate!*

Im beginning to believe that it is my coworkers mission in life to make MY life as miserable as possible.  For example, not cleaning up your section so that the third shifter (me) will ‘have something to do,’ or a manager making me split a tip 3 ways with him and the cook when they are both getting paid nine dollars an hour and im getting 2.83.

Yea, im job shopping, in this market.

Im grateful i even have a job, dont get me wrong, but im not going to stand around and be somebodies shitcan for less that $3 an hour.

Also, I dont understand why guys dig the ‘hard to get’ game.  It seems that if im not showing any interest, he is, but the second i let on that its mutual, all of a sudden there are a million excuses.  Whatev.

In other news…

• Started painting my room!
• Im covered in paint
• Orchard Fresh pie <3
• More kitty cat snuggles!

Slow Progress?

I hope to be all moved out by the end of the week.  I went and bought the blue paint for my room today

Ive always liked Painting and doing home repairs and stuff.

Erie Pagans/Witches Moot is tomorrow, I’m happy.  I havent seen my witches in a while.

Ive always wanted to open up a Cafe/coffeeshop/artsy type place.  If you remember Moonsense you know what im talking about.  On the other hand, Ive also wanted to own a Bar.

Im definitely in the wrong field of study right now!

Happy today =

• Paint!
• Kitty cat snuggles
• Banking like heck at work last night
• The College Humor Show
• Not having to be back to work til 11 tonight instead of 6.

Artsy

The Nouveau Art Party thing last night was a blast.  Went to Molly Brannigans after for a steak boxty.  DELICIOUS.  Then over to Sherlocks for a bit of smokey bar scene love.

Today

• I slept until 230, pm.
• Im eating delicious chinese food!
• Dad approved all the paint colors!
• got alot of stuff moved out of the room, packing more now!

Still kinda bummed about a certain something, but im pretty much over it.  Stupid boys.

Owie

I hurt my hip in the process of carrying a big box of books down my stairs.

Remind me! I need to give the landlord my 30 day notice.

Why I smiled today:

• I got my film finished, and i dont completely hate it!
• I had a delicious seafood sub from subway <3
• My mommy bought me SOCKS for my birthday! (which means i can put off laundry a tad longer.)

Purpose

I have decided to start this blog in an effort to turn certain things in my life around.

Every day, I am going to post about something thats made me happy, and why, be it a tiny little thing or something big.  I’ve noticed that I tend to dwell on the negative things, and when I do that, I turn into a giant bag of sullen mush that lays around eating french fries and sulking.  No more of that! (Of course I will still vent.)

I am currently in the process of packing up all my shit, and moving back into Erie, after being stuck out here in the boonies for so long.  My mom relocated us from the middle of the city to a BFE trailer park in Waterford in 1998.  We have moved around the area, but stayed here for the most part.  I moved out on my own in July 05, right after I graduated high school…into an apartment in Waterford.  Then i moved to Edinboro, back to Waterford, Edinboro, and I’m in Waterford again. Hopefully for the last time.  Ever.

The best year I had in high school was probably in 02, where I spent the second half of 9th, and the first half of 10th living in the city with my dad.  I used to walk around down town and just wish I was old enough to enjoy it!

Well, I’m sacrificing a tad of independence and moving home with the patriarch.  It’ll save me money (though I will still be paying my rent whether he likes it or not,) and I’ll be back in city-girl mode.  Whee!

What made me happy today.

• My film prof extended my deadline til thursday, giving me more time to finish my…um…film.
• My painting prof is letting us work on our sustained painting for another day, which is awesome because I missed the last THREE classes.
