i am alive and kicking. just a note to all the concerned. i am nothing if not a survivor. i'm like a damn cockroach that way. my illness has for the most part just become a cold now.. and that i can deal with.

this week i finally gained employment, so soon i will not be entirely destitute. though looking at my delinquent bills list, it's going to be a bit before i can afford to pay rent anywhere... or feed myself with any kind of regularity. it's an odd world where i pay my cell phone bill before i buy myself food. (i've got a 5lb bag of rice as back up food, so i'm not starving... and plenty of people here seem to like feeding me.. so i'm doing ok there for the most part). i just don't like being so dependent on others for my own well being. one of these days i want to pull my own weight and take other people out for dinner and drinks. one of these days...

so.. job stuff.. i'm working at trader joe's. it's actually not a bad place to work. decent enough pay and after 100 days i actually qualify for health benefits. and it is only part time (30 hours/week) so i can keep looking for massage therapy work and still squeeze in the odd modeling job(s).
