On Updates:
On food:
1.Tomatoes with salt and pepper are still my favorite food.
2.Chips and salsa was number 2, but has since been replaced with flour tortillas, microwaved for about 15-20 seconds.
3.Hummus and Mediterranean flatbread has been replaced by salad for third place.
4.Milkshakes and canned pineapple are first and second alternatives.
On work:
1.I’m still at the library. I just haven’t picked up any shifts there in about two weeks because…
2.I got a new job at a café in Old Towne Pasadena. The place is terrific. It just opened the first of August, so I got to train with the famous chef consultant/actor, William. Needless to say, the food there is ridiculously good and made with natural ingrediants. The owners are Belgian and ridiculously nice. And I’m gonna make a lot of money. When the school year comes I will only be working Fridays and Saturdays so that I don’t have to quit the library and/or change my class schedule.
3.Once the money starts coming in, this will all be very perfect.
On cash flow:
1.I have none, so please don’t invite me to do anything that involves spending more than $5, please.
On apartment:
1.My roommate might be the perfect person for me to live with. Maybe. It’s still up in the air, but for moving in with a stranger, I am friggin lucky.
2.We’re in between furniture.
3.Scruffy keeps bringing home live lizards to our patio door.
4.The apartment itself is still super sweet and awesomely priced.best.apartment.best.
On the upper part of my body:
1.This is really frustrating.
2.I almost don’t want to talk about it.
3.But I will mention that I have a really bad case of TMJ (jaw disorder). And it affects a whole lot of muscles (in the head, face, neck, shoulders, upper arms…) For over a week now all of these muscles have been spasming non-stop (charlie horse style)
4.It’s effin’ painful, and insurance is being a bitch. = I am frustrated, so I am trying to find ways to calm down, as this was all a result of stress-related teeth-grinding anyway.
5.We’ll seeeeeeeeeeeeeeee how this goes. (Unless we go blind. Which I might since I see blind people in my neighborhood all the time.)
On the lower part of my body:
1.Yep, still there.
On visitors:
1.Steven and Isabel came to visit me. They got here last Saturday and left today.
2.Love, love, love (and some fun in between).
On myself:
1.Well, since deciding to demand respect from the people that I let into my life, my days have become much less complicated. Mostly because it meant that I had to stop spending time with all those fools that aren’t keen on my new-found instinct to trust my own feelings. Life is considerably more boring. Well, not really. But it feels like it is on days like these when I actually have time to myself and my phone isn’t ringing every hour on the hour by people who don’t appreciate my inherently human qualities and feelings.
2.So today has appeared to be boring. Didn’t have to work. Steven and Isabel left. It’s Saturday, so I can’t take care of most of my errands/things to do/appointments to make/etc.
3.This means I’m going to have to start using my Amy time wisely again. Not like today. I mostly just waited for pain to go away, and for naps to come, and for food to cook. But I guess I needed today, also. I also spent a lot of time waiting for my phone to ring and listening to messages that say, “Amy! Let’s go do [this] tonight!” and me thinking, “That’s a terrible idea. You don’t respect me. You just want me to come out and play because I am fun. But I guess I don’t want to let you down, so sure! Count me in!” (more or less)
4.But that didn’t happen. So I want to say that I am making some progress on my mission to stand up for my feelings, but unfortunately, this is all coming off as boredom at the moment.
5.I’m proud of myself anyway.
In conclusion:
1.I rock.
2.I did a good job at making my life rock.
3.Once my tmj pain goes away, I’m going to be a hard-ass (rock).
4.School starts in two weeks from Monday?
