the good thing
In a coffee shop at the moment. I keep looking over the top of my computer and to each side of me to make sure that no one notices that I'm on LIVEJOURNAL. I shouldn't be embarrassed but I just feel like they KNOW. Whatever. Screw you, blogspot. I'm sticking to the old school shit.
So I got a job. It's a fun job. Not very difficult. I basically watch dogs all day and make sure that they don't tear each others' throats out. They're all so damn cute. It's the cutest dog daycare place I've ever seen, and I get to bring Brisco to work with me for free once I've been there for a little while. It's totally part time and totally minimum wage (I MIGHT make rent?) but it's better than nothing. Everyone who works there is super nice and it's pretty chill.
Starting to come to terms with the fact that I most likely didn't get that job at Davis. It was a long shot in the first place. At least I got an interview, though. It was a good experience to have. Terrifying, but good.
And... moving on. I'll find something eventually. I have no idea why my mom has been so supportive (she thought I was stupid/crazy for moving straight to Sac from Chico without a job) but she keeps saying that "the good thing" will happen soon, and even though it's "fucking hard" to see the silver lining, to just keep on keeping on. It really was stupid to move here without a job. I'm aware of that. Not delusional or anything.
But I do love it here. I love the fact that I'm sitting in the Naked Lounge, but that I'm not in Chico. (I really do miss Chico chai, though.) And I love the fact that I can ride my bike to work, and that my boss does the same thing and has a special place for us to put our bikes. I love the fact that I can walk through the Capitol garden whenever I feel like it, that everything I could ever fathom of going to/needing is only a short ride or drive away, and that this place is way cooler than I thought it would be. People are freakin hippies here. Not all of them, but enough. A healthy amount - enough to annoy Josh.
Other than the failed job attempts and flea bites all over my ENTIRE body, life is good. Love is good. Being happy is good.
The good thing is going to happen soon. Eventually.
