Long!Post is Long
Well, I haven't done anything resembling an actual post (no, icon posts don't count) in about two months, so I may as well get people updated and such.
Brian and I (and Mo) moved down to Baton Rouge to live with my in-laws (his parents). They cleaned out the back area of the house so we have our bedroom, a living room area, and a bathroom to ourselves. There was A LOT of cleaning up to do. Over a month later, I'm still unpacking stuff (mostly books) due to the fact that there are dishes on all of the shelves of the living room (antique dishes, but still), but it's SO hard to really be mad over it since they took us into their home and aren't charging us rent. So, I pack the dishes up slowly and start putting up books/DVDs when I'm up to it.
Job hunting has been FAIL. I've lost count of how many applications I've put out. Of course, I'm putting out bartending/waitressing applications, since I want quick money and I truly have NO idea what to do with my degree right now. To get certified to teach, I need money to take the tests. So that's fun! Brian has to go take some test thing at Exxon on the 22, so that's something, but that's the second thing that he's heard back from since July. The first wanted him to clean out tubes or something, and his shoulders are WAY too wide for that, so no dice there.
SO broke it ain't funny, but we're fed and we have a roof over our heads. I would just like money to pay off bills (the calls are getting REALLY annoying, and telling them that we're broke and jobless does NOT make them stop calling) and maybe get out of the bloody house and talk to people once in a while. The past two days have been better, but Wed. night around 3 in the morning I was ready to throw myself in front of traffic I was feeling so bad. At least now I've gotten Brian to stop spending ALL day on the computer. That's a good thing. I happen to like looking at his face and talking to him once in a while. Weird, I know.
Roleplaying is...ugh, it's going kind of crappily. I'm having trouble with one of my main RP friends because they aren't loving RP like they used to, and it's killing me/driving me batshit when they just sit on aim and don't say anything for 20-30 minutes. Dude, you can't fall in love with it again like you want if you just sit there like a bump on a goddamn LOG!!!! This is my best friend, and I just want to throttle them right now because they are SO hard to deal with when they are depressed like this. Of course, I'm a pain and a half, too, but I at least try not to bring it into RP, you know?
Ugh. Had to vent that last part somewhere. I can't tell it to them because I'll hurt their feelings and probably drive them off more, but it's driving me nuts and part of what's making me cry a lot lately, so keeping it bottled up is kinda driving me toward my inevitable nervous breakdown earlier than expected.
Also, the voices in my head the other night made me eat toilet paper. Not a good sign.
