Been awhile.
I'm still working at the library, and it's getting a little stagnant. So I've put in for a couple jobs since April, and interviewed for two; a third interview is on the way. It's not that I don't like my job, but it's getting to the point that I need a change of pace. Or location. Something different. More money would be a plus.
Things are going well for the most part. Aside from some bills I've been ignoring and my car falling apart, things really are pretty good. I've been gardening since early April and my herbs are doing well. Well. The thyme isn't doing so hot, but the chives, coriander and basil are happy and thriving. Annie got an orchid that's still kicking after almost 2 months and sprouting little flower buds. Her name's Delilah. We have a Strawberry Topsy-Turvy that is actually producing strawberries! Although I think I'm killing it. Maybe forgetting to water it earlier this week was bad. :/ Oh well. I've been working out regularly since April; I forgot how good it makes you feel. I feel tougher already.
My car... I can't even look at it without wanting to take a sledgehammer to it! Shit, it's had its exhaust system replaced TWICE now, as of three weeks ago, its brake system replaced, 7-no, 8 flat tires as of last night, its gear shaft connecting lines replaced, its radio replaced with a CD/radio, its rust removed and paint replaced... It's barely the same car I got 6 years ago. But I should be thankful it's still moving. Fuckin thing.
People keep telling me I should take the GRE soon. Quite frankly, the thought of taking one more test is enough to send me to the hills, but they might be right. I dunno. All I can concentrate on is getting a job so I can pay off my bills and start to live like a fucking adult.
So that's my exciting life. I feel totally uninspired creatively. Nothing is coming out, except nightmarish visions. Maybe I should capitalize on that. A lot of my nightmares have reoccurring places, although the dreams themselves are totally different. Does anyone else get that? Like your brain is re-using the same sets for different movies.
