Happy St. Patty's Day

Gosh, I didn't think it had been this long since I updated this thing!  Oh well.  My Tivo has run out of things for me to watch, but I don't feel like doing anything, either.  I gave blood today so I am being a little strange, but I guess that is to be expected.

OK, update.  I got a job at a graphic design studio.  I am an intern at the moment, and I am glad because there is a lot I needed to learn.  I get to work from home at the moment, and I only have to put on grown-up clothes once a week.  I am really glad because if I had to get up and get dressed and go into an office every day, i would almost rather be unemployed.  Jeremy is jealous of me... 

On the other hand, it can get lonely.  I accidentaly filled my apnea machine up w/ water too high last night and choked in my sleep--FUN!  it got me thinking about if I died in a freak apnea-machine-related accident, who would be the first to discover me?  The truth is, It would probably be weeks before anyone wondered where I was enough to come looking for me.  I'll be one of those news stories where they find me but my dog, who was trapped in the room with me, had devoured some of my corpse because he was hungry, and the room would be covered in dog poo.  Not the best sleepy-time thought...   BUT, I won't care about it by then because I'll be in a much better place.  :D

Have a great day!

Happy birthday to me!

The first of Nov was officially my birthday.  This was a strange birthday.  Jeremy's all settled in his new apartment and new job in Nashville.  I drove down there last weekend to help him move in.  He still has no furniature, but at least he has food and towels and a bed.  I was hoping he could be here for haloween and my birthday, but he needed to get his job started right away.  But i did get my new sleep apnea machine thingy (which is sooOOOooo attractive) and i bought a new outfit.  I got my new driver's license, too, which really made me feel fat.  I have been gaining a lot of weight, and when i see a picture of myself i have to do a double-take because i don't think I look like me anymore.  I also got some cupcakes and some genuine Bryers Ice cream.  my parents sent me this really cool new keyboard that will help me with my carpal tunnel issues, once I get used to it!  I am trying not to feel lonely, because this is the first birthday i have ever spent without at least someone around--and i've never had to buy my own birthday cake!  (as you can see, i am having a hard time not dwelling on it). 

Still no job for me.  It's okay, i have some savings to get me by.  For my own sanity, i probably need to find something to do, like a temporary job.  I may end up in retail over christmas again!  I promised myself i would never ever do that again, but if it's part-time instead of full-time it could be okay, maybe.  Since i have grown horizontally out of all my clothes, the discount would be nice and the activity could do some good.  whatever.

I was hoping to get some stuff accomplished today, but then i realized it was Saturday, and probably nothing I needed to do could be done on a weekend--nothing that was really important, anyway. grr!

Well, i hope you have a good day!

Well, another week is coming to a close.  I am another week closer to really needing a job. (!)  I am getting nervous about it.  It has been fun not having to be anywhere early in the morning, or having to stay anywhere for a specific amount of time if i don't want to, but it is starting to get old.  I think I am ready for the next thing, if only i knew what that was!! 

Jeremy has found a job.  He will be selling shoes at JC Penny.  . . . whatever gets the bills paid.  I hope it will do that for him.  He will probably be back in town in the middle of the week to get more stuff to take to his apartment.  It will be nice to have my garage back--that's where a lot of his furnature is stored at the moment!  It will be nice to see him again.  He left the morning after my previous post where i said he was gone and came back.

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea this week, and was fitted for a very sexy looking air mask that I will have to wear at night.*sarcasm*  I will be sure to take a picture when i get it.  My dog is going to hate it!  He will probably try to claw it off my face while i'm asleep.  I just hope i can finally get a decent night's sleep.

If you have visited me here before, you will notice that i added a survey to the left column.  My dad thinks i look just like Rachel Ray (from Food TV).  Jeremy doesn't see it at all, so i am putting it to a vote, just out of curiosity.  so vote!  Also, i just spent like 4 hours updating my website.  There are a lot of empty links right now, but in the next couple of days they will all lead somewhere.  I don't have a JOB or anything, so i have time to work on it. :D  go to
www.geocities.com/parodeis
and have a looksee.

thanks for tuning in!
