Wow, I'm busy.
There are so many things going on that a list would kill everyone's friend page. However, let it suffice to say that I'm doing well. I'm still planning to move in July--I'm even managing to save money. The car is paid off, so are the credit cards, and if I want something nice, I might even have some extra money to buy it! (Case in point: my brand-new sheets, down comforter, and pillows, which are casting shadows in the corner of my eye and just beckoning me to come and lie down already, since it's after 11.
So: money is good. Work is good. School is good. Ryan is amazing and good.
I wish I could write more interesting updates. I spend basically all day on the computer, but while I'm at the LL office I feel that I shouldn't be writing in my personal journal, even if no one would care if I did.
I'm finally starting to feel, however, that I am Getting It Together. For the first time in over 5 years, I have no bad debt (the student loan is good debt, and it's not that much to begin with). I've got a great boyfriend who's put up with me for 2 whole years and might even decide to put up with me permanently. I get to see my family all the time; I'm going to have my M.A. in a year's time, and I have a good job for the next year to get me through. Sure, a certain someone with the initials M.N. is possibly going to drive me right up the wall and off the roof of Pray-Harrold, but them's the breaks.
Granted, these moments when I feel like I have everything under control usually precede an episode of crash-and-burn. I mean, yeah, I'm higher (better off) than I've ever been, but the harder they fall and all.
However, I'm not going to worry about it. I'm pretty damned happy, summer's coming, and I'm going to spend lots of time doing things I want to be doing. Happy blue ideas are all I'm thinking tonight. Wheeee!
