Yearly update
Man, I love that Livejournal lets me go a length of time but never lets me fully forget. No, I actually love that. Where kids today vlog and Insta and snap and Facebook everything, I just really had this, and so my Livejournal is a really good document of my most awkward years.
I'm 34 now, and I am so much different to the 16 year old who wrote on here years ago. I even talk with a different accent now (I'm gradually becoming Knoxvillian, I guess)! But it's so cool to have this journal as the sort of tree rings of my life. I'll keep trying to check in so this can continue.
I work as a customer consultant for a company that sells awards management software to people across the world. Basically, I do online customer service, and work from home. Never met my boss or co-workers, hopefully will never meet my clients. It's good. Been here about three months now. Prior to that I was the 'Coordinator of Everything' at a web design company. I was PM, HR, billing, assistant to the boss, sales, admin, and a few other things too. The boss was insane, so I quit after three years.
I am happily, lovingly married to the American I met in 2008. He's the greatest. He just got his PhD in physics (electron microscopy) and is doing a post-doc at Oak Ridge. We have two cats, Professor T. J. Snuggles and Melon. We have no kids, that I know of. That reminds me that I need to re-up my birth control...
From my window I can see a road - I can currently see the aftermath of an accident. I can't see any gore, just two police cars and traffic being filtered around them. This happens often because this road is shitty,
Erm, what else? My really old grandad died. Everyone else is alive (at the time of going to press, at least - I'm pretty bad at keeping in contact with them all).
