update time, i suppose.
quit the diner. after i had a huge hysterical crying/throwing things fit last saturday night, and realizing how much i hate that place no matter how much i tell myself otherwise, i'm done. they got a year of my life. they got every weekend last summer, and every holiday since 4th of july. they also fucked up my sleep schedule, my eating habits, screwed me out of vacation pay at my day job, and apparently helped me get passed up for new projects at said day job. so fuck em. peace out, girl scout. they did nothing for my financial situation- i'm just about as broke as i was a year ago. and besides- polyester is itchy, hot, and smelly in the summer. now to lose 10 pounds worth of late night disco fries and pbr, lol.
so yeah! my day job has been busy dealing with shrek tour deadlines and spiderman deadlines the same week. people have been working 65+ hour, 7 day workweeks. people have cried at work multiple times. i nearly got into screaming matches with the person i was working for, but was (like i said) passed up for some new projects, including building spiderman himself. so i escaped the brunt of it, but the collective stress level definitely leaked into my psyche. so i'm looking forward to a nice, relaxing weekend and a fresh start at being a regular 9-5er on monday.
tonight my awesome little sister is coming up to stay with us. as well as my awesome boyfriend. gawd, he just makes my life. i am so goddamned happy it's ridiculous. and everyone's all like, "gee katie, your so quiet about this one, how's it going with him?" and really it's just because i'm so confident in it. i feel no need to constantly talk about it. i'm just quietly content with feeling normal and happy. it's going great. he's amazing. that's it.
we're writing a graphic novel together. i've always wanted to write a book but never felt properly inspired. shauns a writer, but has only managed to finish one of the 11 books he's started. one night while out drinking i said to him rather off the cuff, hey, we should write something together. and it snowballed from there. we've got a few chapters started each, as well as a chapter outline and an extensive file of notes and charts. so i will keep you updated as that progresses.
my roommate bought a ginormous flatscreen so we've been spending quality time with that. lol.
pictures forthcoming! figure i'll wait till after the weekend. but i am definitely posting photographic evidence of our night out with AesirR.
anyway, enjoy the weekend kiddies- i know i will!!

my biggest issue with Coach is my spoiled brat of an older sister is obsessed with it. She'll probably steal my glasses whenever I make it back home to visit...
