Hoo boy! I know I haven’t updated this thing since the end of April. But seriously: SINCE WHEN IS IT PRACTICALLY THE END OF MAY? YES I FEEL THE NEED TO SCREECH IN ALL CAPS.
Since we last spoke, dear blog, I have done the following:
- WORKED LIKE A DOG at a job that ends on May 28.
- INTERVIEWED at a couple different places; things are promising but not set in stone (I won’t say anything lest I jinx a perfect perfect opportunity that involves me being out of the office most of the time).
- MADE SURE MY GRANDPA WASN’T DEAD for 5 days straight.
- TOOK SAID GRANDPA to the doctor SANS wheelchair (which was sitting in the spare bedroom in plain sight but I for reals did not see it. It was early, man.)
- FLOWN ON AN AIRPLANE to Chicago and from Milwaukee.
- GOT RAINED ON in Milwaukee.
- CELEBRATED 65 YEARS of my other grandparents’ marriage. Congrats my grandparentals!
- CANCELED MY TRIP to Texas (the wedding I was to attend got canceled in a dramatic, heart-breaking fashion in which we can conclude: some men (not all men, come on, but def this one for reals)? Are dogs, straight up.)
- BECAME A WEDDING CAKE CONSULTANT for a whole other wedding. I’m having fun checking out local bakeries. My friend lives in Utah and is getting married here so needs some help with that. If the #5 wedding hadn’t been canceled, I wouldn’t have been able to make this particular wedding, so even though that makes me a horrible person, I’m glad I won’t miss this wedding – after all, I’ve been friends with Felicia since we were 6.
- FIXED MY CAR to the tune of a broken clutch. I guess the universe decided to give me a pass on this one because it only set me back like $175.00, including an oil change. BUT STILL. I MEAN COME ON, isn’t the Jobpocalypse enough for this year? Ay carumba.
- DEALT WITH RACCOONS living under my house. Raccoons are awful. And noisy. And because I know peeps I got a sweet deal too. Networking! It really does help.
I’m SURE there have been other things going on. But I am too too tired and fed up to even think about them.
Oh yeah, one thing that has happened that is pretty awesome actually, is that I got my Wii hooked up to Netflix. They send you a disc that you run when you’re watching something. I really like it and have added a ridiculous amount of stuff to my streaming queue. Currently I’m watching Farscape, which I missed the first time ’round as we didn’t have the SciFi Channel. I kind of like it but… Muppets/Puppets! Kinda distracting.
I need cake, y’all.
That’ll do nicely.
