Life and Living - Mostly.

Hello World.
It seems my life is a constant series of returning from and then returning to the grave. Meaning, disappearing and reappearing from nowhere. Life has been rough the past month.

First, the bad news so I can end on a good note: My knee is acting up again. I have a doctors appointment in Western Mass on the 15th to get it checked out. I'm not optimistic about the results. Yes, while it hasn't gotten any worse in three weeks, it certainly hasn't gotten any better. Chances are - and I'm really not being melodramatic - that they are going to recommend I get surgery this summer to further delay any other serious issues. Joyousness.
Scott and I - well, we're not doing so hot right now. Things got very rough, and he has no real interest in truly fixing things. I think he's just being civil to me until I move into my new apartment.
Roommates are being assholes - but, hey, when is that ever a new development. It always seems to work out so that I live with people I'm not compatible with. Good thing I'm living solo next year. I think my poor luck with roommates the past three years is a combination of bad luck and the fact I just can't deal with other people stepping on my personal time and space.
I need a new coat. And now for something completely different. On the good side of things, I nailed a pretty sweet job last month. I did the window displays for 'Ghosts and Gravestones' - I.E The Boston Haunted Trolly tours. They're really more walk-in-closets attached to the Long Warf Marriot than anything else. It's hard to describe. I'll have pictures eventually. One room's a graveyard, and the other's a study. Pretty nifty, if you ask me. The job itself has been nothing but a series of never ending, escalating problems. Now, after the rooms are installed - the animatronics aren't finished, and the displays are melting. Why? Because the walk-in-closets these things actually are - are glorified easy-bake ovens. Have to try and get the windows tinted, and.. yeah. A whole slew of more problems.
School's over for the summer. That's all I'm going to say. The semester went badly. Meh.

All in all, things could be better... but... I'm pretty sure things could somehow be worse. Just a lot of stress right now, and a lot of back pain. Heh.

Until next time.
