Something about sitting in front of the computer in your underwear first thing in the morning makes life seem just perfect.
I had weird dreams last night/this morning. Last night I had a night terror (2nd in about 2 weeks). It started out I was playing a video game with Cece (maybe cuz it was her birthday recently) where we were fighting ghosts (but not exactly ghost busters). Somehow I ended up in the game and I was hanging out with Mary Poppins. Everyone was wearing green, and everyone was getting picked off by these ghosts. About the same time I realized I might be the only one left, I also realized that the ghosts loved green things. So I was running down the street tearing at my green clothes to get them off while trying to bang on neighbors' doors for help. It took me a really long time after I woke up to get out of the mindset that something was going to get me.
The dream this morning was much more pleasant. I was having a great time with Ben cleaning his bathroom. Everything was sparkling white, and all that cleaning really entailed was dusting and getting the hair up from everywhere (surprise). I was cleaning the whole thing with a toilet brush though, which was weird. I woke up when I noticed that the catbox was no longer in front of the shower, and I couldn't understand what he was saying when he was telling me where it was now. It sounded like he was saying "waste of pancakes".
The job scene feels like it's picking up for me. I have my resume and application in at Haag and Sons, and they're going to decide on Friday who to interview. I also put in my application and server resume at Hell's Kitchen. I really hope I get that because I could make a ton of money there! I'll still keep checking craig's list and poking around the papers, but I feel good about these two.
There's so much I want to get done this summer, I can't believe I've let myself sit around bored on occasion! I will list for you. That will help me remember too.
- Clear out the back yard (at least enough to make part of it enjoyable
- paint my bedroom
- start a compost heap (only after part of the back yard is cleared)
- explore new shops in downtown wilmington
- help mom get some rearranging/organizing done in the house
- Read for fun!
- Finish my independent study course for UNCA
I guess it doesn't seem like a whole lot, but they're pretty big projects with lots of little details that will take some time and shopping around as well.
There's also so much I want to do with Ben that weekends aren't nearly long enough
- make beer (like a 3 week process)
- explore vintage shops and bars downtown
- make lots of new friends
Again, doesn't look like a lot, but he's also helping with the yard and the painting
Ok, I'm gonna do my morning job check and bitch out some people about things I don't have (newspaper and acceptance packet from Poland) Then on to the yard!!
