I miss working.

I miss working. I miss the feeling of accomplishment, the camaraderie with coworkers, the lunches out with friends, the coming home to whine about how much works sucks. But, most of all, I miss all that disposable income.

I miss being able to call up friends and go out whenever I wanted. I miss being able to randomly treat myself to something nice. Hell, I miss being able to afford the things I NEED. I miss not worrying about money constantly.

And worst of all is the jealousy people have that I'm not doing anything while they're working. People think I should be happy and relaxing. I don't want to be unemployed. I don't have anything to do all day -- there's not much you can do with NO MONEY.

I hate this.

Chattanooga



I love this picture of Anthony and I in Chattanooga (in early Fall). It was our first trip together.

I just bought a bunch of art supplies and am trying to get my artistic groove back -- so here's a portrait attempt in Charcoal and Watercolor.

Cat Story: Tabitha wins.

As I was waiting on supper and being melancholy, I was sitting silently at the kitchen table. I had just changed the litterbox so naturally the cats had to use it. Tabitha was first. When Jack heard her digging, he went and sat in the laundry room. As usual, when she walked out, he pounced and chased her off. That happens pretty much daily. He thinks its funny.

So then Jack's turn to use the litterbox. Tabs hears him scratching and positions herself on the top stair on the other side of the corner -- complete with butt wiggle. Jack comes trotting out, glances in the laundry room and then *BAM* Tabs attacks from behind. Scared the shit out of him. LOL! It made me laugh a lot.

Shrek Forever After Glassware Recall

I'm reading about the McDonalds Shrek glass recall (http://www.aboutmcdonalds.com/mcd/our_company/mcd_faq/shrek_glasses_recall.html") while sipping tea from my fat Puss In Boots glass. Nobody is taking away my fat Puss in Boots glass, I don't care if it's poisonous, it makes me happy.

Fun @ the Lake

New Adventures...

Well, I'm still jobless. Two months in and if anything my job prospects look smaller than they did before. I'm also living beyond my means -- unemployment doesn't pay much and I live alone in a 2 bedroom apartment.

Time to put on my big girl panties and do what I have to do: Move in with someone. Ugh, I know. I've lived alone for over 5 years and I never got along with roommates. But I did get along with Steph for the brief period we lived together. And now we're both much more medicated. So...

I'm moving in with Steph! She has a house here in Huntsville with a roommate (who I'm told is disgusting -- ugh) and two cats. And now me and my two cats will be joining the party. I'm terrified. TERRIFIED. I'm going from my own apartment -- with two whole bedrooms and two whole bathrooms and my own kitchen and all my own stuff and no one to bother me to a single room in someone else's house. ...with other people. I'm terrified.

Did I mention I'm terrified? Help.

Facebook ate me.

Sorry I never post around here anymore. I should try to remedy that. I've been directing my thoughts and pictures to Facebook so this poor blogs been neglected. I apologize. I do recommend friending me on Facebook if you wanna keep up with me though. So whats new with me?

Did I ever post on here that I got laid off? Yeah, probably not. Job search isn't going too well. It's very disheartening. Most days I feel like a giant loser. I'm still going though and looking for a new job. And collecting unemployment -- yay! Too bad thats not enough to live off of. It is free money though and helps a LOT.

I'm still with my sweetie, Anthony. We love each other and it's so awesome. I've met all his family, hes met all my family. We still accept each other. It's great! Hes up by 10 strokes in the putt putt tournament (7 games in). I tied him last game though, so maybe this is the beginning of my subtle comeback.

I hooked up my good old NES from '85 for Anthony to play Zelda. He kicked its ass. I took a picture of the victory but he won't let me post it on facebook because he says no one cares. Does anyone care about anything I post on there anyway?

Still loving my Wii! I still love some Mario Kart action. And I got the Netflix streaming disc for the Wii -- it's so awesome! I canceled my cable when I got laid off, so now I just stream stuff from Netflix. I watched the first 4 seasons of Bones (INCREDIBLE show)! I can't believe I was missing such an awesome show!

Spent the end of last week at a gorgeous lake resort with the family. I got major sunburn. We had a boat and a jetski and a innertube to ride though so it was super fun. The resort had the most awesome mushroom pool ever! It had the giant mushroom fountain, a huge cave with waterfall and a water slide. Unfortunately, it was freezing so we were stuck with the normal adult pool.

I'm sure there's plenty more I havn't mentioned, but this is a start :)

Putt putt showdown

Neither of us have gotten close to par, but im up by 2!

Happy Easter!

Spicy food = more tea.
