But first, news! mfrazercani got a job!!! He got hired back at the same place that fired him, actually, at the same rate of pay. Who knows what happened? The manager broke up with him and then realised he'd made the biggest mistake of his life? They thought 5 months of misery would be good for his character? I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, ( Read more... )

1. Still unemployed. Still broke. Still sucking. I did manage to get food stamps, and I got my unemployment benefits reinstated - $40 a week, woo-hoo! (<-- sarcasm ( Read more... )

I've mot been on LJ much lately. mfrazercani has lost his job, and we're currently without income. R is being a huge help, which means we're not going to have to find somewhere else to lice immediately. Hopefully one or both of us will have a job very, very soon I've not yet heard from the university about whether or not I'll get enough financial aid to ( Read more... )

Sorry for the unplanned hiatus from LJ. About a month ago I broke a promise to myself. I was feeling down and posted about it, and it turned ugly. So I locked it for myself only. Some stuff came up that I realised I needed to talk to mfrazercani about before I put it up for the whole internet to read. I calmed down the next day and we did resolve it, but ( Read more... )

Thunder and rain today! I'm still enough of a Californian that summer thundershowers are novel and exciting.

Also, I got word today that after this weekend I may be moved to other districts to help them finish up, which means I get to see new parts of Nevada and get extra travel & per diem pay. Yay!

My Census work has finally started up again, so I'm likely to be busy the next week or so. Thank the gods.

Dealing with financial stuff today - payment plans/hunting for a crap job/selling stuff. Wish me luck. :/

I don't really have anything special to talk about. I'm working from home today, which means I got to sleep in this morning (yay), but it also means I stayed up way too late last night and am therefore just as tired as every other day. :p

It's so hard to hold on to who I really am when I'm working. I don't terribly mind working-me, but I'm not sure this complete dissociation is healthy, either. At this point I'm not sure how much dissociation is normal, since I've obviously had a long pattern of doing it too much. And there are so many parts of me that are NSFW (not safe for work ( Read more... )

I've been so busy and so tired lately I've not had much room in my head for anything beyond learning my new job(s) and sleeping. I know I have thoughts running around in my head, but they're too vague to put into words very well. So no big thoughts here, just a smattering of little ones.
