Sorry about that DCGG. I actually meant stores like sears, jcpenny, etc. They can have some nice stuff, but its hard to find it usually

I'm sorry but my opinion stands, I don't like sears. I have never liked them and I have had bad experiences there.

The fella I know from the Museum of History would like me to send him my resume to pass on to a couple people. And I'm applying for an Archives & Records Professional position w/the State. And my hair looks awesome. Things appear to be looking up. *wiggles toes*

I'm working on a new quilt. That makes me happy.

Thanks Diva! Hope so too.

^ that's awesome Red! I also hope things work out well for you
The *wiggles toes* part of your comment made me giggle. Then of course I felt compelled to wiggle my toes

^^I didn't know it was contagious! Thanks for the well-wishin'.

Payday is here, and not a moment too soon! Also happy b/c we're going to go explore Greensboro tomorrow.

It's Friday. 'Nuff said...

I decided to take the day off and have a three day weekend.

^^^Sounds like an awsome plan!



It's Payday! and I got a good check!

Wenz 1 - Bank 0

Read em and weep

- Today is my last day of work before the weekend.
- Today is the last day before the pay period ends.
- That means I get paid in 5 days or so (even though my entire next check is all going on bills for the most part)
- My first rent payment is due on sunday and my mom loaned me the money for that today.
- Tomorrow I'm getting two tattoos done on my shoulder blades. (If you are wondering how I'm paying for it, I'm not. My tattoo guy said my line of credit is good with him so I don't have to pay until I have the money but I think matt is planning on paying for these)

My mom's coming over later today and she's bringing roast pork.

only 3 weeks till classes

^^Boo! I don't wanna go back!

I'm moving to a smaller but significantly nicer apartment in a few weeks, and I need to downsize. Right now I'm cleaning and starting to pack. I don't know why, but it feels really good to periodically give away all the stuff I find myself no longer waning or needing.

Even after only 3 1/2 hours sleep (was up until 2:30 this morning trying to get my TV show uploaded to YouTube) I'm really refreshed.

That makes me happy. Mondays are bad enough without being exhausted on top of it all!

I saw the podiatrist -- no surgery needed or even suggested!

What I do need to do: trim the nail *really* low, use an Rx solution on it, repeat for 3-6 months. Should start to look better after 3 months. I really hope this works!

^^That's really good news, Red! I was worried about ya.

^^ Thanks Diva! Yeah, he said the stuff has a 75-80% chance of working (hell, I'll take it!) and that the pills rarely work, so this is my best bet.

^^Well it's great to hear you found a solution that doesn't involve surgery. I remember having a really bad ingrown toe nail so they told me I had to have "surgery." The doctor basically cut out 1/4 of my toe nail. I was pissed.

My story: Well I got really happy to bummed to happy again. I paid my rent payment so that is taken care of. I also found out what I need to know for my apartment. Then I got really excited because she told me that I'm actually getting the master bedroom with a bathroom attached. She then called me back a few minutes later to inform me they actually put me in a building where the apartments aren't set up the same so both bathrooms are in the hall way. She said she wanted to tell me so I wouldn't be disappointed. In a way I am but I can't always dream she is wrong. I'm still getting the biggest room and that is only for an extra $1 compared to what the other two are paying. In the back of my mind I'm still hoping for the master sweet.

Thank you, Cyn and DCGG.

DCGG: I'm hoping for your sake that the bathroom situation turns out to be not too inconvenient. I remember in my dorms there were multi-stall bathrooms in the halls, but it turned out to not be too bad once I was used to it. If it is a pain, maybe you can switch to that suite w/an attached BR after your first year.

It's possible. But it would of been nice so that way if I wanted to be antisocial it would of been easier. Plus I thought it would of been really cool to have my own personal bathroom to decorate. I still think it's kinda cool because we each get our own personal keys for our bedrooms.
