Alex, I'm really sorry I blew up this afternoon -- I'm mad at John, not you, and I just lost my temper. I'm very sorry. I hope you have a good time tonight, wherever you end up. If you're still looking for things to do, there's (free lessons) salsa dancing at the Flying Dog on Thursdays, I'm told. I hope you have a great time, wherever you go. I'm so sorry.
In the good news, I'm feeling much better in general since I've started going to the gym. I'm enjoying going with Kim to CIF several times a week, after work. The kitchen is finally clean, after I took the day off work to ditch the soured soup which has been on the stove for days, clean 3 days worth of dishes, and will take out the trash in several minutes. I'm burning a nice pear-scented candle, which is helping immensely. This fall I've also decided to take a cartooning/illustration course in the evenings at Conestoga College. Might as well do something different once in a while, what the hell.
In the sorta-good, sorta-bad news, I've started looking for jobs to do for fall term and winter term, once I finish my M.A. I've realised my degrees will be useless. So I've decided to continue going to the gym for now, to get myself into whatever shape I may need to be in when I finish. I've also signed up for a bartending course for the fall term, again at Conestoga. I should probably get a skill or trade I can apply anywhere, since my degrees will be effectively useless outside the academic field, and I won't be any good in the academic field until I get a PhD, which is looking dicey at the moment (for a number of reasons -- a major one at the moment being my attitude.)
Leah, congratulations on your Elvis-wedding.
luel_exana, glad to hear you're enjoying Europe. :)
I've recently gotten into watching "Meteor Garden" the live-action adaptation of Hana Yori Dango. So much better than the anime it is amazing.
Sorry this is such a bad post, I'm still really angry at the moment.
lutze and
annallama, I hope the move went well!!! And why haven't I received any writing from you yet,
lutze?
I hope everyone else is having a good day. I'm gonna go take out the trash and maybe hit the wall again.
