I finally stopped taking the Morphine a week ago, right after I had the bottle refilled. My last day on it was actually spent working at UNO's on Superbowl night. It was dead and the only 3 servers on were: a girl on Morphine, another girl who had only been out of the hospital for a week after being diagnosed with epilepsy, and some guy. It was a very special night with very special waitresses. And by special I mean glassy-eyed drugged-up ones.
I'm a little surprised at how people are reacting to Anna Nicole Smith's death. I had forgotten the woman even existed when all of the sudden everyone in my department were creaming their pants over the "breaking news." Everyone had their own theories, including one of my roommates who claimed that she attempted suicide to draw attention to herself and accidentally succeeded. I think the baby did it. Obviously pure evil.
In other areas, I finally had to break off ties with someone after thinking about it for a good long while. Things hadn't been right between us for a long time and there was no way it was going to get better.
Things seem to be finally turning around after 5 months in Boston. I finally have a job I actually enjoy, the weather is hopefully warming up soon, I have medical insurance and hopefully I'll be able to start taking Japanese and photography classes soon. I don't want to be just another college graduate who ends up working in a field completely unrelated to what they studied at school. I love Japanese but since graduating I've been lacking the discipline to apply myself to studying it more. Granted, the last 5 months have been really awful with medical panics, no money, family issues and so on and I should probably cut myself some slack. However, I want the coming year to be a good one, one where I feel like I'm not wasting my life and my education.
Here's to the coming year.
