As demanded...
Life update.
I'm fully moved into my new house. It's on Melrose Ave., aka, bordering Linfield campus. I'm rooming with Dawn and Matt (this random friend of Odysseus); Matt's pretty cool. I didn't really know him before we started figuring this out. It has three bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen and laundry room, and the combo dining/living room space. Only things we're really missing at this point are chairs and dressers. It's pretty nice, all in all; $292 in rent per month, $3 for trash, $6 for internet starting in two months (next month is free), and whatever water and electricity cost. Food stamps reduce the cost of food, so... rolling pretty well. Matt has a truck and likes fishing, among other things.
I was offered a job by the school to work at O'Riley's again, full-time, more pay. I'm looking into getting a job with postal services, the local economic development group, and some of the busier/classier restaurants. I'll see what happens.
Flurry of D&D writing and preparing, with more to come for this semester... been doing a little console gaming as well.
Writing again with a novel idea Gene doesn't like and multiple short stories. 'tis FUN.
Visiting home from the 18th to the 1st of September. o: Yay flying!
Made a slew of new friends and acquaintances with the conferences job. Whoosh. Also have a bike and some snazzy clothing.
There's more, I think, but I can't remember it... ah well. Off to yard buying.
