About Friggin' Time

Well, it's about friggin' time to post a new post.

Things have changed --A LOT-- since March, but since only three people read this you probably know all about it already!

Anyway,
I'm REALLY looking forward to moving into my new place! I FINALLY get to live by myself!! ....well, almost all by myself.... I'll be taking Ishmael (the crabby tabby) with me when I move out. Sure, I'll still have to come home from time to time to set dinner out for his Lord Tubbiness, but it's not like I'll be owing him an explanation for anything I do!

I told Rich that I was excited to finally be completely on my own. He seemed somewhat surprised by the remark. I know that he really doesn't give a rat's ass as to what I do with the rest of my life so I honestly don't know why he would seem surprised that I wanted to be alone. I was tempted to explain that I wouldn't wake up every morning holding my breath wondering what his mood would be like that day. Would he be happy? Would he be aloof? Would he speak with me? Would he bury his head in his book or computer game and forget I even existed?? How the hell would I NOT be excited to finally live with someone whose emotions were honest?

--By this I'm referring to the cat, of course. Ishmael wakes up feisty, demands breakfast, mellows out until dinner, gets feisty again at around 5pm, then cuddles on the sofa until bedtime. When he's pissed at you, you know it. When his belly is full, he's content.--

So anyway, this next month is just going to drag on.

Other new news-
  • I started my part-time job at Starbucks last night. I had been working at Target, but was only getting 12-16 hours a week. What's the point? Sure, if the employee discount were 20% I'd probably still be there but the discount was just 10%. The manager at Starbucks said that she could guarantee me 18-22 hours a week once I was out of training. --I may not need this many hours, but it's nice to know that I can get them.

  • I nearly keeled over this past weekend when Her Royal Spenceness actually deigned to speak with me. It has been almost a month since she's done more than grunt or give a monosyllabic reply to anything I've asked of or said to her. -But here's the best part...... SHE initiated the conversation! It leaves me wondering what she wants...?.....

  • I tried on the most faboolous fitting bra this past weekend! It may mean nothing to you, but it made me happy. My 'girls' were perky and up where I like them, my back felt no strain whatsoever, and the bra itself was very pretty. The drawbacks were that it was an "H" cup (and a 36 band size......I think that it was wonky sized because it was French), and that it was $72. No thank you.

Well, I can say that I'll try to post more regularly but who really knows for sure?

Thanks for listening!!
