i can't stand this heat (i left the kitchen a long time ago)
so i'm sitting on my couch in my living room, and i'm sweating crazily. my apartment is the hottest place in the planet, or so it seems to me. part of the problem is self-induced: i'm a huge fan of fish, and so i have several aquariums throughout my apartment. each of these adds to the relative humidity in my apartment. back east, summertime humidity and heat were partially offset by afternoon thunderstorms. my apartment, of course, does not have the capibility to develop its own thunderstorms.
i went back to syracuse last weekend. i had a great amount of fun, and enjoyed spending time with my family and friends, but it didn't seem like home. portland really doesn't seem like home either though. i am contemplating moving back in a month or so, but i'm leaning far to the side of staying here in portland until it is time to head to law school next fall. i do want to find a new apartment though. i can't justify paying the rent here, and i'd really enjoy having a roommate. i am back to working as a temp, without a permanent job, which makes finding an apartment and roommates far more difficult, but i have high hopes.
as i just mentioned, i'm no longer a permanent employee. my employment at ANI came to and end - thank god. i shouldn't have put in notice before i had something else set up, but i truly couldn't stand certain aspects of that job. it is weird right now - i'd like to be more candid, but i have recently read of those in my age group being held back from employment at places due to what they have written on their livejournals, or on myspace, or whatnot. i'd prefer that not to happen to me. in any event, i put in my notice, worked another day, and then arrived to work last tuesday to have my boss send me packing. crazy stuff.
hmm, i always want to write on here, and yet, when i start to, i feel like i'm being held back. i'm far too dispassionate.
