So my birthday is in about 6 weeks now — and this is all I want.
$100 to spend at Michael’s Arts & Crafts
$100 to spend at a used bookstore
$100 to spend at the local bead stores
an lcd monitor
After all, I got a job now. :)

… but it’s still debatable whether or not I possess it. On the other hand I have a job now.
I start in ten days, on July 7; conveniently that avoids Hypericon and lets me have some time to get my work wardrobe in order and my brain on track. It’s not a fulltime […]

I has returned from the wilds of North Carolina bearing a tiny laptop, some shells, a lot of sand in my bathing suit, a purple shirt I made, and a little peace of mind. It seems like there’s a lot going on in this beginning of June! Chibi night, range session, father’s day, book releases, weddings, bachelor parties …
Anyway, I brought home fun things to do to keep my hands busy and I think I’m ready to tackle things again … just as soon as I figure out what’s causing that annoying buzzing in my linux box, and read Kushiel’s Mercy …

I’m going away to my mom’s for a while; I don’t know when I’ll be back in nashville. Definitely by Wizard’s wedding, but I don’t know anything about elsewise. I don’t know how much internet access I’ll have while I’m there, so I’ll probably be on at random times, at least until my squeeepc shows up. I /think/ mom has hispeed wireless now but I won’t swear to that. Anyway, I’ll have my portable programs with me, but I doubt I’ll be able to play City while I’m there, just because of not having any computer to play it on.
I just need a break of scene, that’s all.

Oh, no *laughter*. See, we have the top-floor apartment in this building, and there’s a tree very close to the corner, where the computer room is. And Phoebe can hear the squirrels as they run around on the roof — come to that, I can hear them. So for several weeks now […]

Still no job. Has had interviews. Looking for entry level data management. Money running low. Sanity running lower.
Everything is tangled up inside. Tired of waiting for phone calls.
I don’t even have anything to say. I’m so tangled inside I can’t get anything to express clearly. I’m surviving, I’m okay. Every day is just another day. Yesterday was bad. The sun had no warmth. I don’t know about today. I keep trying to get up early and I can’t, it’s so cold outside the bed I can’t get up; I just go back to sleep. So I know I’m depressed.
There are things I should or could do. I’m just not always doing them. Maybe I will today.

I’m tired of stumbling over things I’m missing, and realising why. Last night, it was my Magic cards.
I don’t have any anymore. Not the ones from high school (Mirage, Weatherlight, Portal); not the ones from my years with Brandon (8th ed., Mirrodin cycle); not the ones I bought when I found the Game […]

How to pay tribute to Gary Gygax:
Tell three of your best friends, when they come to play BESM, that you are going to play Munchkin instead.
Learn that one friend has never played and always wanted to.
Get Cursed twice by another player, losing several good items, and retaliate by Gender-Switching him (-5 in your next battle).
Spend […]

Our Phoebe gave our tribute to the great man Gary Gygax these last few days, rolling her personal die all over the living room floor. I don’t know what she rolled, but she was doing it. Tonight we’ll do the same, playing one of the descendants of his great achievement of imagination.
Aside from that, we need a room at MidSouth, being as how my luck still loves me not and therefore I have no income. Never fear, we will pay our share, but we need /to/ share. Anyone have floorspace for two quiet and friendly people in need of a helping hand? (We need this respite, too. My shoulders HURT, man.)

It’s the rise and fall of the flying cat empire! The skyscrapers are taken over by trees, they are the new jungle! Kitties are adaptable — they develop flying-squirrel wings! Then they develop a society, and take over the collapsing cities!
… uhoh. I better hide this idea.

I had a phone interview this morning, with a local/state law firm, who needs someone to manage their client data — something I’m perfectly suited for. So I have high hopes for this; she said I should expect to hear from them again on Monday sometime. So that’s something to look forward to […]

The drug makes it possible for me to function, but it’s still there. Like a weight. Like a knowledge. Once you know it’s there, you can’t just erase that, it doesn’t just go away. The image is like a cross, but it’s not like that. It’s not something I chose, […]

I haven’t written anything in nearly a month, and I guess “happy winter holy day” doesn’t count for much, does it? Truth is, there’s not a lot to say when you’re just sitting at home, trying to think of new ways to fill up your time. I know, I’m a gamer girl, and […]
