Thursday. Posting is up, complaints down. Correlation?
I'm doing pretty good. I'm working on some ideas for my computer thing, and S is helping me. It's an interesting combination of inspiration and baby steps. I can see the big picture and it is alluring. I can also see I have a ways to go to get there.
Main work is going well. It has settled into a pattern that will last through the end of May for sure, and I wouldn't mind if it stayed basically the same. I haven't gotten in trouble in a couple of weeks now. I'm keeping up in my med term class, looking forward to my birthday, and the long weekend vacation for June Fair.
Papers is mostly ok. My drive time sucks. I have to get faster or earlier. I finished today at 7:10am, way late. People haven't started complaining yet, but it's only a matter of...time. Sorry, couldn't resist the obvious pun.
I'm starting to get plans in advance. I'm going to the movies with B this Friday, and a mexican feast/card party on Saturday. When we planned this, did anybody realize that that was cinco de mayo? Or is that just a coincidence? I was thinking of going on a short hike Monday. Maybe Beacon Rock or Angel's Rest. On Tuesday I'm shooting archery at the zoo with my mother, weather permitting. I'm going to a movie night at D2's next Thursday, and I think I'm supposed to go out with N on Friday, although we haven't talked about it, and I'm not sure I want to go. Sunday the thirteenth is mother's day, so I'll have to plan something for my mom, and on Tuesday the twenty-second there is a damnportlanders meetup. Do you think they'll let me in if they know I'm from Vancouver? Wednesday the thirtieth is my birthday, and the first weekend of June is June Fair. K's coming from Phoenix. Yay! His birthday is the third. I wonder if I can get cupcakes to June Fair?
I think I need to get a little pocket calendar.
I ran out of April, so I didn't get to do my live event, unless you count country karaoke night. But I was looking over my stuff, and it turns out that South Pacific was in the first couple of days in February. So my January event was actually in February. I guess that means my April event could be in May... If I don't run out of May. I'm having fun. I'm enjoying my friends. I'm starting to like my life. Not that I ever hated it, but sometimes you get stuck doing the same thing without thinking about it or even realizing it. I'm not doing that now. Most of the things on my schedule are things I've done before, and I really want to add new things. I am trying. I was thinking about trying to get down to Portland once a week, or maybe every other week for something. If anybody has any ideas, or hears of something fun, let me know!
No cars have blown up on me in a few days. Cross your fingers that that jinx is broken. The shower curtain is up, the toilet works, the bed is oddly lopsided, but comfortable enough, I haven't been late to work recently... All in all, things are going pretty well.
I need to figure out a user pic, and I need to get a good picture of me for a dating site, and email replys. I'm still working on my acronym.
Moody Crisis Butterfly + Boring Knitter/Reader Girl = Work in Progress?
or
MCB + b K/R g = WIP?
Strange soup.
