Right now I am learning how to not be in charge.
At work and in my new officiating crew, which is not as strong as the one I left, has some good people, who just need a lot of training, and reminding myself that it's not my job to do that, knowing I'm the new kid and unless someone asks specifically for my input and...

It's amazing how much the place you live in can affect you.
As many of you know finding not only an apartment, but a place to stay in the meantime, was a massive stress factor for me.
In February, I came up here for a job interview. I went out that night with the friend I was staying with and met this awesome girl I...

You already knew there were awesome people like that out there! You're one of them! There's also NeNe and SugarCunt and of course issue_ who all let me crash! Now you just get to have that favor returned to you. Enjoy it! Love you and can't wait to hang out! OH! We could totally do our web radio show thing we talked about now! 
HA!
HA!

I was bored and raised in Los Angeles. I know people who never lock their doors. It is all just so foreign to me. I wish it was different.

I officially live in Portland now.
Apartment should be secured tomorrow, but I won't be moving in until The second week of April.
I really wish I could be settled and move in to a place this weekend, but I'm happy to be here and starting a new job on Friday.

Congrats and Good Luck Bruises. 
How bad is it that when I saw that CVS has 750 ml bottles of Jameson on sale for 16.99, I was tempted to buy a case, knowing that in Oregon this will never happen.

Make it two cases.
I should be packing the last of the things that will go in my car with me to Portland on Sunday.
I should be.
But something stopped me.
You see, I have this collection.
Of rocks.
And some shells.
And a few pieces of green beach glass.
These rocks have moved with me since I was 8 or 9 years old.

Kitty is so cute!

I love kitties <3
I'm moving in 10 days.
I have a place to live but not until April 15th.
I'd be lying if I said this doesn't freak me the fuck out.

Congratulations! I got a new job too!
The job interview went really well.
Still haven't heard yet, but should by Monday or Tuesday.
Today I came back to work, after being gone for 2 days, to 160+ emails, 22 voicemails, finding out at least 10 of our vendors have us on credit hold, and one is threatening collections, and my bosses (the Controller and CFO) decided to take the day off without...
