Well the last couple days were pretty good. Thanksgiving was good as always. Had the family gathering over at my Aunt's place and we had a lot of good food. All the thanksgiving staples were present including homemade stuffing, cranberry sauce, and wild blackberry pie. My poor aunt has been out of work for the past few months and she hasnt really had any bites yet on her applications. She used to be medium high up management for a ton of years so I'm surprised she hasnt landed any interviews yet. She's got a headhunter agency helping her redraft her resume and send out a ton of letters of introduction for her. Hopefully she'll at least get something decent in the next couple months for an interview or she might have to take a big step back and just try to grab anything she can find. Was just a very laid back thanskgiving.
Finally today I got out and made it to Charlies Combat Club and bought my tickets for the Ax Fighting on dec 9th. I'd have so gotten my ass kicked if I didnt get tickets for my friend at work since I told him about it like 3 weeks ago. I do have a reasonable excuse though since my roomate was supposed to get the tickets for me but didnt get around to it. He trains at the school so shoulda been no prob to have him get it for me.... but Noooooo he had to forget about it for a week, then asked on the day none of the trainers were there to sell him some so I had to take matters into my own hands. And although I normally like things in my own hands this time it was annoying cause I work a late shift and couldnt really walk in the door for a week and they were getting scarce. But i got my 3 tickets so all is well. Should be an awesome set though. Another 15ish fights in one night, one right after another. Will be great. I got the day after reserved off so I can scream to my hearts content and go have some beers afterwards. Will be sweet. I think I'll take my camera along too and get some pics.
I'm kinda half trying to work on my dreaming again, but that's mostly turned into taking lots of extra cat naps and sleeping in stupidly late. But we'll see how it goes. I could use a little discipline in my life yet.
I've also found that although my roomate is thinking about moving out in Feb or so, I'm really looking forward to living alone again. Having all my own space, and less clutter in the house will be very nice. But having him live here for awhile was going to be my tattoo money so I'm sad about that, and I wont be able to afford eating out after he's gone again. It should be a lot better than it used to be though. My mortgage has since been refinanced so it's under control and fixed so I should just need to hang out for a bit and see how things coast.
