it's been a really productive past week! i started my new job at biolife plasma center as a biomedical lab tech. i'm not really feeling it. for the next 3-6 weeks i'm training and have to be at work at 5:30am. i wear scrubs and work 9hr shifts. after i'm finished with training, i'll start working the 2nd shift which runs from 3pm until 12/1am. wtf?!?!?!
the job is running a Prism diagnostic machine which tests plasma samples for hepatitis b & c. i basically continuously load samples into the machine, fill out a shit ton of paperwork, and retest any positive or error results. i should be so stoked by this job because it's not waiting tables and it's right up my alley! on the flipside it has an air of overworked-ness and it's mindless (although you have to have a degree to even be considered for the job?) i'll also get benefits in a few months. is this just my fuck-around-jolly-funtime kim fighting against my get-your-shit-together kim?
eh, time will tell and i can apply for other hopefully better paying jobs while i'm at it.
super positives:
-ryan's in the process of moving in with me. this means i get to be selfish and hog him all to myself even more.
-it's hella warm and pleasant outside today so i can go on a long run without a runny nose
-i'm off all weekend
-i just made some okra and tomatoes
-i taught myself to crochet this morning and am now embroiled in a hat project

sometimes when i think about all the anime, comics, books, crafts, video games etc there are out there i feel really really out of touch. god so much to be into!!!
