I wish I could blog more often...
I'm at my parents house using the computer after an unfortunite job interview. I really wanted the job...like a lot. But I'm obviously not going to get it because my lack of driver's license and my appearence (i.e. nose ring, dyed hair, tattoo.) And here I feel like I look conservitive when I see other people on the Hill. The driver's liscence thing is something I really need to change, though. That's been holding me back ever since I graduated. So my official new years resolution for 2006 is to learn how to drive and get my liscence. However, I don't want a car. Here's waht I hate about cars. I cant afford the insurance and the gas. I also hate looking for parking in the city and would rather just walk/take the bus. I don't want to get lazy either and find myself driving my fat ass all over the hill when I could otherwise take advantage of the bit of excersise I get and enjoy which is walking around the city. Seattle is the kind of town where a car is kind-of neccessary, unless you're one of those people who live on Capitol Hill and never get off of it (which I'm sort of becoming if it weren't for my job in SODO). It would be nice to get around to other neighborhoods more easily. I always fancied myself too metropolitan to bother with a car, but apparently this town is just too spread out that employers require reliable transportation. (However, with the cars my family had growing up a bus was always more reliable than the car starting.) Anyway, so I'm going to do it, learn how to drive anyway. It's just been hoding me back for too long. Then, when I have the money, I can move to a more metropolitian city where I don't need a car. That was always the idea behind NOT getting my liscence in the first place. Grrr arg. I'm upset and disapointed. At least I don't have to worry anymore about the pending prospect of the drug test if they were to hire me. *sigh*
