moved
Sleepy time. I really ought to go to bed.
Got all moved yesterday. I spent Friday lugging a few more boxes to the new place and cleaning the old quite thoroughly, and then John's family came up Saturday morning (after John and I dropped Jaina-the-cat off in my new bedroom) complete with pickup truck and loaded up my furniture and remaining ( Read more... ) -
the art of dedicating yourself
Yesterday I spent my usual Thursday evening volunteering at the MSPCA shelter in Jamaica Plain (a southern part of Boston, for the non-locals). I had been neglecting my weekly visits for a while, making them more like bi-weekly, while searching for apartments, and am very glad I finally found a place and will be going back more regularly ( Read more... ) -
I went out on a Latin word!

(Untitled)
Shit, dude. I don't usually go on about movies or other little mundane things in my journal. But seriously. John and I went to see Little Miss Sunshine tonight, and oh my god, that movie was fantastic. I can't even describe why or how or what the deal is, but I haven't enjoyed myself that thoroughly at a movie since Hedwig. (Those of you who know ( Read more... ) -
an update for the uninformed
On Saturday, I moved to Cambridge, MA. Just so everyone knows. No, I don't have a job yet, but I do have another interview this week at the Boston Medical Center (administrative assistant) and am waiting to hear the results of an interview at the JFK School of Gov't at Harvard from a couple weeks ago; they warn me they are very slow. Meanwhile, ( Read more... ) -
so there, Gilana! :-P
I am frantically packing and cleaning in an effort to get ready for my trip to Kentucky. Tomorrow evening I head down to Maryland to stay with Maggie Bennett for the night, and then bring her with me down to Lexington. The trip will be, as mcflynnthm would put it, OFF THE HOOK. There will be late nights, dinners of revelry, DullCote in my lungs, horsies to ( Read more... ) -
John's interview!
mcflynnthm is doing the silly "5 questions interview" meme and I thought I'd play along. Maybe, just maybe, #4 will soon cease to be a valid question :-P ( Read more... ) -

signing off for a while
Yeah, I know I don't use LJ much to begin with, but I figured for those of you who chat with me on AIM, this may be useful info ( Read more... ) -
my mother is good
She's going to drive from Reading to Great Barrington on Sunday to bring the car that I'll be using this year: it was my sister's, but she's gone to California to do god-knows-what for who-knows-how-long - it's a very bland, boring beige Toyota Corolla station wagon, and it's comfy to drive and gets good gas mileage! yay! I'm really happy about ( Read more... )
