Don't know how long it's gonna last, but for now life is good

So it looks like I got a little bit of freelance work coming my way. Not exactly my first choice but some you gotta make do with what you got. Who knows, if it is consistent enough it might work out to my benefit *keeping my fingers crossed*

Ok, seriously this has been the best fucking day ever.

1. slept in late
2. spent some time with the kitties
3. got some free comics because of Free Comic Day
4. met Seth Green and shook his hand
5. got a ticket for Return of the Jedi
6. saw Return of the Jedi
7. Mark Hamill was the special guest at the Return of the Jedi screening
8. TOOK A PICTURE WITH MARK HAMILL!!!!!!!!

9. Met up with friends and had some beers at the Mission
10. (and the cherry on the top to end the day) came home to Swingers on HBO.

I'm pretty sure my day was better than yours

Years ago I came across a list of songs someone had compiled for a life soundtrack. I liked the list and copied it, intending to fill it out with music that was better suited for me. I never did fill it out. I just kept the document and look through it every so often. For some odd reason I decided to start filling it out. Here is what I have so far.

And so the job search continues... I've gone on an interview or two and had a training session for dub cards but nothing solid yet. Kinda disheartening but I'll manage. At least I get to spend more time with my cats

Ah, good to be back. What I miss?

I may go grey for a bit, but I'll be back

The Dark Knight rises...

Is it wrong that I want to use this line on someone?

So we are now into 2013. I'm not sure what is going to happen this year. 2012 ended on a sour note with me losing my job, but the rest of the year was pretty good. My immediate concern is getting unemployment benefits and finding a job. I got to get those sorted out by the end of the month or I won't be able to make rent. The thought of being homeless isn't a pleasant one. I'm trying not to freak out about it and I don't want it to set a tone for the rest of the year. I want this year to be a good one. One where things start falling into place. I'm also going to try some resolutions. Normally I'm not one for resolutions but I've been thinking about these for a while now so the new year seemed like a good time to implement them. Things I want to work on this year: learning to let go of things (I have a lot of little reminders of past times and clothes I don't wear anymore), caring more about my appearance (this will range from shaving more often, buying new clothes and to start working out again), use more lotion (I have dry skin sometimes) and most importantly to spend more time with my cats (I need to play with them more often ).
