Repititious Olympian Catchup.
Well hello, Journal. Did you think I forgot about you? It's been like 5 months again. Hahaha, sorry I keep doing this to you, but after the absolute shitty shit shite that was the beginning of this year (all woe and doom and gloom and bleh and blargh posts, just from skimming quickly) I suppose I needed to kind of take a breather and get things back on track before I posted something new. Or at the very least maybe I was waiting until everyone that reads it decided I wasn't going to post again, so that it's just you and me. :p Heheh, maybe I should stop showing you to people. Or maybe I should shell out the cash to change my journal name again, so no one can find you. Ooooh, that's an idea.
Anyway! Onward. An entry, an entry, time to talk about my summerrrrr. It was quite an active one too. After upping my citalopram dosage and getting my ludicrous emotional twatness under lock and key, I decided to close up my eharmony account (seriously, why did I pay over 100 dollars for that) and open up on on okcupid for free. At first I was still keen on dating and ended up seeing this gal a couple hours away in Dayton named Jackie. We dated casually about two months, but during the course of it I realized... I didn't really feel much like dating at all. Epiphany: I wanted some me time! Just me and my friends and no stupid romantic pursuits. I think I hurt her feelings a little bit in breaking it off, but finally I took a stance and moved foward in pursuit of my own happiness instead of attempting to work things out for another person. I've been single since, and I'm honestly quite pleased with it being that way. I still have the okcupid account, I just mainly use it to browse interesting looking people and answer the shit-ton of questions they have on there since I'm manic about filling things out.
I also decided to kidnap Wil again, awwww yeah. He stayed up here for most of the duration that I dated Jackie, and was a large factor in my decision; I realized just how much I neglect my friends sometimes. Poo on me for that, eh? We had an awesome time, lots of hanging at the pub and gaming and adventuring all around. Damn yeah for adventures. He plans on perhaps moving up here permanently soon, which would be purdy bitchin'.
However, while he was up here I went a little overboard on spending... I got a PS3, a printer, boatloads of new games and dvds... and I'm now over 10,000 dollars in debt. :D Augh, silly youth and its antics right? Well, thankfully I also got a raise at work, so I'm making like... SOME leeway on paying it off. Not much, but I figure it'll be paid off by the time I'm dead or something. Awww yeah. Again. But on the bright side of that I have so much shit I'm never bored. Seriously, I haven't even played like 45% of my games. I will have "new" games to play until question marks!
I've also been writing again, finally! Not in here you silly goose, poetry and music and my novel. Looots and lots of good words flowing out of these here fingers. I've made more progress on Stone Heart than I ever have before and I'm actually loving it this time, and Wil and I have set up a new music project called Imodern that is really cool instead of really lame. I so love when the creative juices are pumping.
Also finally wrote Johnny back, after like a year of being a cunt and not doing so. He was really pleased to hear from me and seems in good spirits; he gets out in less than two years! I'm so excited to see him again, it's been suck and suck and suck that he's been gone so long.
Let's see... anything else interesting? I guess it's interesting that I'm like second-in-command of the kitchen now. Hettel was fired, Sparks left, and McPheters finally became our actual manager. I was wary at first, but it turns out we get along incredibly well and the kitchen has never been running better than it is now. Harper sorta drives me insane sometimes and our new guy Deitrich is a little too soft for his own good, but overall I'm really pleased with work at current. Totally love my job.
I've also been reading a bible. Not because I've suddenly found the light of Christ, mind you... more because I've been really interested in philosophy and myths and legends in general lately, and it's great fun finding all the ridiculous flaws and hypocritical statements in the book. It drives me utterly batshit that people take it word for word as factual, real history. Every single line of it is nearly impossible to digest for me. But oh well, I guess.
Hm, I think that's enough for now. It's most certainly not a full update on everything that's happened, but I doubt my foggy memory could do the months justice anyway. This'll have to be adequate, as per the norm. Maybe this time I won't be gone for months at a time. :p Though knowing me, that's always a possibility. Either way, ta for now you electronic memory bank.
