Hunting around on real estate sites is NOT encouraging. Not only is there nothing in my price range, but there's very little that i like...even way, WAY out of my range. Looks like the master plan is back to inheriting/marrying rich/winning the lottery/being one of the few survivors in a post-apocalyptic society. Hey, at least i'm a realist.

I got feeling crappy at work today, which forced me to miss the company's Pride Meet & Greet. I know I would have made a terrible impression, as I was sick and grumpy, but I'm crushed that I missed it. It's particularly frustrating, as I'd been looking forward to the event for weeks and only felt really awful for an hour or so before and...

I love scooters! And the gelato sounds like a good plan, too.
I pulled up a barstool next to my longtime best friend yesterday, only to have her say "Oh my GOD, you'e gone emo! When did that happen?". I think she might have a point. Although, as I told her, it's not really something that happens overnight as it is something that you descend into slowly like alcoholism.
Either way, I'm too happy to care because...

glad to have seen you! Hope your trip is all that you could ever hope for.

Hey! Thanks for the transaction help.
Maybe next time we can meet in less professional terms.

Well, I'm back online after what seemed to me to be a lengthy hiatus. Checking the dates on my posts, though, have confirmed it to be only a month or so. Apparently, it just seemed like forever because I was living back home for the first time since i was a teenager and had no access to porn.

Cocaine and whores? Not half as much fun as thrift shopping with you and Janet.
But if you had some to spare, I'll take 'em off your hands...
Looking forward to the scooter ride tomorrow night I hope?

Oh, you're back! Cool! I'm never sure if people have vanished forever or will return to the dark side when they go grey.
I had to live with my parents during my internship. It was eight kinds of disconcerting.

But at least a pearl necklace doesn't embed things in your flesh. "Cheney" implies more pain than one would hope would be involved.

of course you count, i just dont come here often.
New job is great so far, although I'm still training, so it's hard to get much of a sense for anything. My brother's comment when I told him I was starting on Valentines' Day: "I can't believe you're so desperate for a man in your life that you're willing ot consider The Man." Bastard. It's pretty funny, though. This week I'm getting classroom training, which...

DAMMIT, GIRL! We are going to get together this weekend if I have to hunt you down personally and hog tie you!
On second thought, that sounds like fun. Let's do that!
Call me.

...And you didn't just 'make it'. You rocked it.
But seriously, not to sound all rah rah, but you are a constant inspiration to me. I wish I had your bravery, and half your brains, In the hacked cliche phrase that is nonetheless perfect for this application: 'you go, girl!'

Self, I said to myself, I don't care HOW annoyed you are. You are going to learn to make gnocchi if it's the last thing you ever do. You are going to make gnocchi until you kick off another potato famine. If it is good, you will be rewarded with unending portions of divine potato clouds. If it is bad, you will suffer as you...

I have a really good recipe in a magazine article. Remind me about it and I will dig it up for you.
The grocery clerk doesn't love me. She isn't at Superstore anymore. If she really loved me, she'd keep working there in the hopes that she would someday be graced with my presence again. But no. It's like she's trying to discourage the stalkers. And nothing says 'frigid' like that.

No one can work for superstore very long. I only laste 2 years. it is not a freindly place to work. wereever your clerk is she is happier
ladayen:
Aye.. thank god I never got hired there. Know several people who worked there and got treated like crap... cept the one who worked in the liquor store.
So it seems I will be needing a professional wardrobe. Between that and applying for school, it's starting to feel eerily like I'm growing up. I've been compensating by drinking a wee bit too much and freaking out. Of course, I'm also wicked excited to just be moving forward.
I've been in a really weird mood lately. I doubt I could articulate it if I...

Update a la six-o-clock news:
Job offer from the bank came in the mail today.

Can't wait until things are finalized; I don't know how much longer I can...

I'm doing okay, thanks luv. I'm pretty bummed about the whole thing, but I'm trying to put a good spin on it. I have three months to find somewhere nice...
And yes. We must get together. Any evening after wednesday, or anytime on the weekend is peachy for me. We still have to do that book exchange. Call me when you get a second.
Oh, and what size are your feet again? I have a pair of rollerblades that I've only used a few times, they're practically brand new. I'm willing to take interesting trades!

wow exciting day
Mere words cannot convey my burning desire for an altered state of mind right now.
I needed a drink pretty badly BEFORE I tried to call my roommate to see if she was willing to go out drinking with me and got the following static-y cell phone message:
"Meredith, it's Erin-I'm trying to get to BC. I'll call you later. *click*"

Having been late with rent on many an occasion, nothing really bad happens.
The real worry would be: is your roommate coming back from BC?
