Home!

Am currently sitting in bed with my EEE, stealing unsecured wireless and telling you all that I have moved in with Aaron!

There's still lots and LOTS to do, but it will be worth it.

Moving!

That is all.

I'm a pro at crastinating.

My job interview went AWESOME. I will know about the job sometime next week. As long as my references aren't lying I'm in.

Still no pictures of my hair, I packed the camera already. By the time anyone sees it, it will be faded and not nearly as great I'm sure.

I only have my clothes and my toys to pack and I will be done. Done done done. Except of course for all of the garbage that has to be thrown out. There's a lot of it.

I have five hours until I go to Aaron's, tomorrow I move. It still seems like there's lots to be done. I probably shouldn't go out... but I wants to see him.

The current apartment still looks like there's tons of stuff to do, I don't understand it.

*sigh* I should get to it.

EDIT: I have started. AND I just found my studded collar from high school. Weird.

An interview, new hair, and a new house.

Lots of changes!

On Monday I went to a hair college on the Danforth and got my hair done. At some point I will show you all pictures. It's a raisin-brown (so, purple tinted in the sun) on top and the underneath is a bright red with purple highlights (also only appearing in the sunshine). It's very pretty and makes me want to wear make-up again.

Afterwords I dropped by the EB Games at Danforth and VP and ran into a friend from high school who took me out to lunch on his break and mentioned that EB was looking for a key holder, to which I replied, "I often hold keys". Today I dropped off a resume, tomorrow I have a job interview. One problem solved! Or almost solved. But I mean, really, me + games = sure win.

Also I move on Friday! Although, I haven't even finished packing yet. Yes, I should certainly get on that soon.

I'm going to go and make soup now.

Smooth sailing on a fairly windy day.

Things are going well so far, which is nice.
I got an e-mail back from CALC (the continuing education school) and they told me that depending on what I wanted to go to University/College for I would probably not need my actual high school diploma as I've finished all of the mandatory courses. However, if I wanted the sheet of paper then I should take a look at ILC (a night school/online course option) they were very helpful.
So, the school thing is going on a temporary hiatus until Aaron and I get settled into the new place and then I will start in earnest.

Aaron is having some difficulties with things that I will not go into on a public forum. However, this has brought me to the decision to get a secondary job. I know I mentioned that briefly before but now I'm very serious. I've been pushing my bosses for the raise that they told me about back in November and have asked for a reference letter to hand out with my resumes. Though, currently I am still on the finding a secondary 'job I like' and not settling for anything else. Honestly I'd like to work in either a book store or a sex store. Both of these things I am fantastic at. Reading and sex.

What else?
Oh, I'm thinking about dying my hair purple and blond on Saturday with some of the money from this paycheque as my last big 'something for me with my own money' thing. Thoughts?

Short and sweet.

I don't know if I've mentioned it yet -- but Aaron and I have an apartment! Like, signed the lease and everything.
It certainly needs some fixing up and a fresh coat of paint, but it's big and it has a backyard (for gardening which I am SO excited about). Now it's just the packing and carrying lots of heavy boxes part. I can't wait to paint and make it into a home for us. It's going to be perfect... and I know this because Aaron will be there with me, so even if it was falling apart it would be amazing.

Just a small update tonight. I must go hide under the covers and get warm.

Mghrurlllhhhhh....

Because apparently somewhere in the rules of my existence it is written 'cannot have everything go right for once' I am out hunting for a part-time job to back up the one at the Fox. It's partially my fault because I rushed into agreeing to something that was not completely rock solid (IE, another job at my brothers store) but I am down to three shifts a week. I will be making $600 a month; a lot less than I was making last year -- and with the add-on of another manager I've permanently lost a shift that I enjoyed. It's more frustrating because I actually like the other manager.
*sigh* I hate job hunting and now is a really hard time for it -- I mean, is anyone even actually considering hiring another staff member to pay when the economy is so rapidly falling apart. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Also, I have got to stop drinking. At least for a bit. I am too stressed that when I start drinking I get so upset and maudlin about EVERYTHING. Even the things that I'm sure about.

I feel like crap.

Things! Also, stuff.

Aaron and I were looking at apartments yesterday, and surprisingly enough threw in an application today. It's a really nice two bedroom at Danforth and Coxwell with a sweet landlady.

Though, that said, there's a great place at Pape and Gowan which I would love for the location, more than this one.

Anyway. I hope we get one of the two and then we won't have to worry about anything for the rest of the month. I can't wait to paint and decorate and live with the boy!
