I have been posting a lot on LJ, but they've all been just private to-do lists and private pep talks and trying to keep myself accountable in terms of progress towards goals, mostly like crossing things off the to-do lists or journaling about why I find the thesis hard to work on ( Read more... )

Interesting week so far. Thoughts about my future, jobs, money, moving out, roommates, dividing up the stuff, giving up the car.... Good day at work yesterday, mostly helped customers so didn't have much chance to start my huge list of website and computer updates I've been asked to do. After work went to the gym, ran on the elliptical hybrid ( Read more... )

Well, the discussion is kind of underway, finally. Geoff and I are talking about moving out in the spring and finding other roommates. It's hard for me to make decisions about this because I am still not sure how long I will be staying in this city / province. I might be here another 6 months, another 12 maybe.

My job at the sexual resource & product shop, and my new guy-I-am-seeing, continue to be the best things in my life. In fact, everything in my life, except for the two huge issues of finances and the THESIS, is pretty good right now. That might be because I am not currently doing any other activities besides those things, I just realized. Hmmm. ( Read more... )

Hope a couple of others show up, otherwise it ( Read more... )

In some ways things have been going well lately - basically, work and my fantastic friends. In most other areas, really not so good. For the past 2 weeks or so I have been in quite a down phase. No energy, sleeping a lot, staying up late, not eating well at all, not doing the things that I know will make me feel better because I don't have the ( Read more... )

Went on a date today with a friend of a mutual friend.  Lunch at the Yard & F on Br.  At first I was uncertain if it was a date - we were playing e-mail tag for most of Sept and Oct. but couldn't arrange a coffee / study session so instead I suggested dinner, and he said he'd call me,  but he didn't, but then about 3 weeks later he did.  I had kind ( Read more... )

So...time for a weekly reflective post, and a new week's to-do list ( Read more... )
