An Update:
Livejournal informs me its been 30 weeks since I last updated. I usually post on myspace and don't really bother with livejournal anymore except to check out vintage stuff and my friends page. But here's what's going on lately, both good and bad, in abbreviated form:
We found out that my dad is needs to get a coronary by-pass. Luckily he caught the problem before it caused any heart damage (he'd been having chest pains and thought maybe he was becoming an asthmatic at the age of 54, but the tread mill test showed otherwise), but he really is in risk of a heart attack. The family is really stressed out financially and emotionally, but we'll get through this. As the boyf said, "Your dad is too grumpy not to get through this."
My last day at the G-dub is Sept 27th! Wo0t!
I'm moving to KC! My first day at the new job as a Delivery Coordinator for a car dealership is Oct 4th. I'm excited about the move and new job - it just comes at a bad time. I'd like to have time to be there for my dad and mom after the surgery, and I don't know how much time I'll be able to with a new job. But I figure if I am able to earn bonuses, some of that money can be diverted to paying medical bills for Dad, and it'll be worth it if that happens.
I have NO furniture. I have a dresser. A tiny bookcase. And a vintage record player. And that's about it. No bed. No couch. No TV. No table. Very little in towels or dishware. Luckily I have blankets, stuffed animals, and some vintage dance photographs. If a girl has blankets, she has the world.
I have a lot of clothes. Clothing will make up the majority of what I'm moving. This amuses me, because I have one dresser. I might move two metal dressers that I hate, just to have something else to put the clothing into. But those suckers are getting spray painted like mad. Chipwood and beige metal? Ewwwwwww.
The Goodvillians played a practical joke on me today. It was pretty good, and it made me feel loved. I was feeling pretty unloved lately, and thought maybe my relationship with some of the Gdubbers was at an end. :( They had to work pretty hard to make it work though, because I am just THAT oblivious. Seriously. Look up "oblivious" in the dictionary - there's a picture of me.
Okay, Im going to bed. I have to get up at 6 am.
