So, yesterday my mom asked me if I was gay. Awkward conversation ensued, in which I explained that while I don't identify as gay, I'm not entirely straight. I think of myself as "open to opportunity", meaning that I don't know who I may fall in love with, and I don't want to exclude anyone based on gender (or race or religion or any other factor ( Read more... )

Do any of you know how I can ship a dog across the country? I'm trying to get my ex-husband's dog out of an animal shelter in Washington state and bring her home to Oklahoma, but I can't afford to make that kind of a trip myself. I think I can have her shipped here, but I'm not sure how that works. I'm incredibly angry, because apparently my ex ( Read more... )

So.  Major life decisions suck, and I suck at making them, and I've had to make too many in the past year.  And I am soooooo slow at figuring things out like, oh, what I want in life, or what would make me happy.  But.  I have decided to try for my alternative teaching certification--meaning I'm trying to become a math teacher.  I signed up to ( Read more... )

Spent the weekend at Tokyo in Tulsa. I know nothing about anime and manga, but there was some really neat stuff going on there. Costumes were awesome, and the fanart was impressive. I hadn't realized how much hard work goes into planning a con, and was most impressed with the people who put so much time and effort into making it run smoothly. sorcha17 ( Read more... )

Had my second interview for the job with the hospital today.  It actually went really well, but I was just really worried about what taking this job would mean for me.  I felt like the universe gave me an opportunity when I got laid off, and taking a job that was essentially the same as one that I'd absolutely hated seemed to make a mockery of that ( Read more... )

So, I had 2 interviews today.  The first one went really well.  I think the lady found my rambling spazziness endearing, and basically said she's looking for people who can make the job more fun and get people to work as a team.  Hi, that's pretty much what I do.  But, I don't know if I want to work in that environment again...it's monthly closing ( Read more... )

I have 2 job interviews on Thursday!  I hate not having a job, and I was starting to get worried that no one would call, or that I'd have to go back to an oil company, but no!  The first interview is with a hospital, and the second is with the city housing authority, who provides low income housing.  I'm nervous.  I haven't had to interview for a ( Read more... )

I've said it before, I'll say it again:  I have the best friends ever.  I don't even know how I am so lucky.  I have a meeting with my boss tomorrow, wherein she'll either tell me they've found me a job in the company or that I'm fired and have x number of days/hours/minutes to get out.  I freaked out to one of my friends about this, and after she ( Read more... )

Are any of you Cubs fans?  I've decided to become a Cubs fan, to irritate my mom who is a diehard Cardinals fan, but that means I have to start catching up on the season.  How are the Cubbies looking?

I just finished my first episode of Stargate: Atlantis.  This show is awesome!!

The HCT videos made me giggle.  I probably shouldn't have watched them ( Read more... )
