Hey so I sort of have a job! Maybe two, actually. They're both work-from-home transcription gigs with crap pay, and neither is as entertainingly high-profile as the one I was working on over the summer, but whatever, at least it's something to do that will fund my newfound interest in pretty dresses until I can find a real job ( Read more... )

Holy cow, seriously. So I have PCOS, I've had it since I was 15 and been on birth control since then. When I'm off birth control, I get unhappy (read: PAIN). So I was very grateful when my pharmacy warned me that I was on my last month and that I needed to go in for my annual.

I'm not sure if it's good or bad that as I get older, losing friends gets easier. Am I becoming jaded, or just better at sniffing out bullshit and dealing with betrayal?

Thank you to everyone who has been there for me lately, be it in person or just on this journal. Really, it means a lot.

I guess I'm glad I went over there last night; I'll probably go again later today ( Read more... )

On the one hand, Roman Polanski finally got arrested! :D Rot in jail, jackass.

On the other hand, William Safire died. :( 2009 claims another victim, and another one I really liked.
