Work, Cashflow, & Gilmore Girls... Or Why I Can't Knit.
Mom's hooked on Gilmore Girls and Seventh Heaven reruns on the station that used to be WB. I had to hide away because I'm getting sucked in. I know I want Luke/Loreali. I know that I think Paris is so odd. I know that I love seeing just how like Emily, Loreali really is. I know I hate Chris because he ruined Luke/Loreali. I shouldn't know this stuff. I should be clueless when my mom and sis chat about how well Rory/Logan is turning out. I don't want another tv show, I never want to see fic. I can't. I won't. I fear I already am too deep to turn back.
Oh boy. Next topic, I have money. I have very little money and rent will be due sooner than I need it to be. My whole job thingy is just insane right now. Next week I train at the Body Shop, work two days at Crocs and I'm just so insanely happy that my final paycheck from Rosetta Stone just cleared because I was about to bounce a check on my car loan. My savings is gone- I used it on trip to Arizona because the 'rents were running low and I'm a good daughter. I need black clothes for BS, but my black clothes are either faded, too casual, or wintertime stuff. I can make do with the winter-y things until the 15th, but I really need to get plates and everything for my car now, so I'm torn- late rent or risk a ticket...
Man, I can't wait til I can pile on the hours at BS. I'm sure Crocs will give more hours soon too. Kate, one of the girls there, she's graduating high school and is trying to get a job as a nursing assistanf because she wants to be a doctor, but can't quite make it into Penn State Pittsburgh yet (yay for her, I really hope she finishes med school.) Money, well, it'll never be cake, but it'll be easier than it is now. The whole vacation thing happened at like the worst time. I had fun, but now I'm not quite panicking over what should be easy to cope with.
All this adds to is me being too busy to knit like I want to. I need a rich husband or someone to die and leave me a boat load of cash. Then I could stop, go to school, and knit scarves and bags and blankets and hats like I so want too. I have pretty yarn, but both places I work can be super busy and I'd never have the time I need to get into the swing of knitting. I can't stop/start knit because I just don't work that way. Knitting is like a relaxer, like yoga's supposed to be. I can't relax when I'm constantly afraid that someone is going to need my assistance or if I need to play 'convincing sales-person'.
And if I can't find the time to knit, how could I write fic? Not that I do that much right now, but I miss being able to just sit for a few hours and write fanfic. Hell, keeping up with my flist will be interesting as well.
I'm going to stop now.
