It's My Bathtime!
time 10:48 pm feeling dirty...I need a bath! wearing cool red pants, dirty white shirt reading The Endless Steppe ready for sunshine!next bathtime!


Okay, whatever. I had a very, very nice weekend, made longer by the fact that my unemployed self chose to take Monday 'off' as well...now my week hath begun, with interviews Tues, Thurs, and Fri. Yeah.

I am hesitant to talk about developments in the area of employment because of my backwards fear I will somehow jinx myself. Therefore, nada. Just silent little lips saying nothing about it all.

I'll let you know if anything else develops for REAL though ;).

Anyway. I went to AK's class with her last night and I LOVED it. I love school when I don't have the HW, I am serious! Perhaps one day I will return and get my MFA, now wouldn't that be nice. But, let's not get too ahead of ourselves. The lady teaching her class was incredible, so smart and so honest. Incredible. It gives me faith in education to know that people like her are out there, even if they're teaching in dusty basement rooms with no room for discussion circles.

Yesterday I just felt really good about everything. I had a great interview (wait wasn't going to talk about that), went home and had a nice afternoon, then to AK's class. I left and felt so inspired and so good, like everything was perfect, but that if it wasn't, it was meant to be the way it was and everything would work out. God. Now if only I could bottle that feeling...

Oh...whoops. OK anyway, nevermind. So yeah, what I really want right now is a membership to the gym. It's driving me crazy that I can't go. I need a job before that happens, but I just want to be active and it's so rainy and icky out. Perhaps a little dance party is in order...hm.

The election is approaching and Kristin and I did extensive research today to see who will win (based on our guesses). Our conclusions was that WI and MN cancel one another out, same for PA-OH and NM-NV, meaning that it really comes down to Florida. Again. Oh shit. This could be very bad indeed. But, we'll see.

I spent the whole weekend with Jeff and it was very fun! We didn't do anything outrageous but we went on walks, ran a bit, cuddled up to watch the debate and baseball on Friday, and spent Saturday afternoon/evening with his friends Dave and Micah watching the various games on TV, drinking some beer and eating candy corn, and in general being lazy. Until the dance party that is. There were many amazing dance parties this weekend!

This could quite possibly be one of the worst updates ever. I think it's a sign that I need a drink NO JUST KIDDING or maybe that ilovemikenow is sad because Karen is gone. Everyone is sad! Be happy!! Eat some cupcakes! :) ...oh well.
