Life update
• Chris and I have been living together for over six months now. Honestly, it's been wonderful. It's like living with my best friend. We also have a cat. His cat. Cat's are great. We still live with my sister, which is nice for the money we save but frankly having two people and all their belongings crammed in one room is starting to drive me crazy. I keep fantasizing about just the two of us getting a two bedroom and ohmygodallthespace. But, moving is hard, and so is ditching family so here we are. Once his job situation is more stable, I think we'll strike out on our own.
• My job is awesome. Sorry. I don't brag about many things, but i'll brag all over fuck and back about my career. I don't know how I lucked out so hard, and nabbed such a fucking fantastic job. I love what i do, and the people I work with. It's almost hilarious how similar it all is to college. Only now the projects are bigger, more exciting, and I get paid for it.
• Thanks to Chris and his constant social needs, my friend circle has vastly expanded. Social shit all the damn time. Sometimes it's a little stressful for my introverted self, but I think it's been really good for me. Meeting new people and expanding my comfort zone. Good stuff!
• I got a ball python! Her name is Lilith. She's a two year old pastel. I've always wanted a snake, ever since I was a little brat... and now i have one! She's adorable! It's great!!
• Been doing lots of artsy projects to keep myself busy. Trying out new things. Doing sculpting, mold making and casting, and sewing. New, challenging stuff. I do so much design and illustration at work, I just get my fill of it. Need something more engaging to unwind, and use the other parts of my brain. I stopped doing commission work. It stopped being worth my time, no matter the pay. Working all day and then coming home and doing more work? Yuck.
