| I just checked that box for the first time yesterday. You know, that one on a job application, under highest level of education, that comes right after "some college" and says "AA Degree." So that's progress right? And under certifications I get to put "BAR approved Paralegal Certificate." Now I just need to actually get a job. And a place to live on my own, hopefully by the end of the summer. I am done with the spring of 2009, I don't even want to think about it anymore. Way too much stress these past couple months, I won't even try to tell the stories. I am however, more than ready to move forward. |

| It's been ages I know... I logged in and it said my last entry was 5 weeks ago. I could have sworn I updated at least once since then, about graduation... but I guess not. So let's see... In approximately 40 hours I have should have a fair idea of whether or not I have officially graduated. The final is 6pm Monday night, 2 days before my birthday, nice huh? I think it's nice timing anyway. And on that note, I really ought to be studying, I promise, big update after Monday. |

| I got a car. I lost my job. I am in the process of reorganizing my life. I think I secretly desperately want to be an entrepreneur. Not the hugely successful kind. I want to be the kind that makes a decent living doing something that I not only enjoy, but also feels worth doing all the time. Does that make sense? Just a subtle impact on something I care about, that's all I need. Only I care about so many things... it ultimately results in indecisiveness and chaotic spurts of passion and ideas. |

| I have a larger than needed down payment. I have a great credit score. I have good steady income. I am over 25, with no "negatives" on my credit application. But I still can't get a loan, which means I still don't have my car. |

| I think I found a new car. I think it will be another civic. I love civics. I think I will have extra money. So that's cool. |

| I am fine. Tristan was not there. The car is totaled. I am looking for a new car. I am getting lots of help. ...I might end up learning to drive a manual. Which would be cool. The end. |

| Lily makes me wish I had more pictures of my life, so I could make scrapbooks of the whole thing. I must take more pictures now that I have a camera. I must start writing again, with more frequency. I must not ignore creative impulses. I need... music, culture, diversity, acceptance, encouragement, admiration, inspiration, individuality, love, support, color, freedom, opportunity, comfort and passion. These are things I cannot and will not live without. Visuals coming soon... |

| 1. I am in love with FLIGHT OF THE CONCORDS, the music and the show. (*starts singing* "brown paper, white paper, stickin together with the tape, the tape of love, sticky stuff..."... *switches songs*.... "all the things i'd do, things i'd do for you, if i only knew, that's what you're into...") 2. I am in the process of undertaking my biggest screen print project ever, so we'll see how that goes. I'll post updates and pictures. 3. I finally got a digital camera of my own, so expect more pictures now. I would have pictures in this post, but I am at work. |

| I broke up with Ian the week before Thanksgiving. I know that's a terrible time to do it, but it needed to happen. |

|---|---|---|---|
| So I think I'm actually getting into football.. craziness, I know. My work does one of those weekly pool things where you pick the winning teams that week and the first week I had Ian fill out the sheet, the 2nd week we each did our own sheets and I was "runner up" to the winner... and now this is the 3rd week and I find myself on the NFL website researching stats and records. I've even been watching games occasionally and I was actually disappointed when Ian turned one of the games off the other night to play video games. But I do, for the first time in my life, understand why "good" football games are entertaining. Go figure. |

| Totally random comment, but it's kinda weirding me out... Just that everyone is getting sick lately. Tristan has been sick, and Ian has been feeling sick, and at least 4 people in my office have gone home sick this week, and even more have had sick kids... But I still feel fine. Weird. |

| Sep. 8th, 2008 @ 12:47 pm New Plan... | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| I actually kinda like the new house, in many ways more than the previous one. There are some down sides, less space, no extra bed, more noise from outside and neighbors (especially when trying to sleep)... plus for the time being we have no washer and dryer. No more ice maker either. But on the flip side... - we're getting 2 cable boxes w/ movie channels, so when Tristan comes out he should be able to watch HBO family & noggin -I can now be in the kitchen and still be "in the same room" w/ Tristan when he's playing -the bathroom is HUGE, much better than the last one -we have 2 AC units (window instead of central air) so during the day I at least get some amt of control over the AC that's not in the bedroom -I think I like this kitchen better. It is brighter and more open & I finally get to give my toaster oven a spot on the counter. -We have a dishwasher! (Assuming we can get it to stay hooked up to the sink, right now we're having issues w/ that.) So the new plan is... Live in this place for a year. Try to save up money next summer and then get a bigger house where we will split the rent as well as split "control" over things next year. I think we're going to try to get a place on the edge of North KC and Liberty. I need to look at school options since Tristan starts kindergarten next year. We both agree though that we'd like to get a house next year that we can actually STAY in for awhile. Awhile being a minimum of 6 or 7 years. This is a big priority for both of us, probably even more of a priority than a wedding. (Not to mention we can't really buy a house and pay for a wedding at the same time, so that's just another reason it will likely be at least 2010 before we get married.) I know I keep saying I'd like to live on my own, but the reality is, once a had a baby, that idea stopped being very practical. And if I'm going to do what's best for Tristan, I need dual-income. I think Ian and I have worked a lot of things out and this time around it should go a lot smoother. |

| I think I just ate fake/real shrimp and fake crab... I think I'm gonna be sick :( *(In the following paragraph, "they"= Ian's aunt & uncle) On a separate note, apparently I have no control over my own life, again. We were informed less than a week ago that they are selling the house Ian lives in & he has to move. (I got to pretty much "overhear" the news while he was on the phone with them.) They have been nice enough to help him find a new place, but the only problem is they pretty much took control of the situation. Ian hardly got any input and I was given zero input. I didn't even get to see the place they decided on. Now, if it is to be "Ian's" place and I were just going to hang out there sometimes, this would be fine. But ... 1) I'm now expected to help with rent, at least in the winter. 2) He's not sure whether there will be anywhere for Tristan to sleep. 3) I probably can't bring any furniture of my own except for a dresser, if that. 4) We have been together for over 2 years. I've been staying at his place at least half the week at least a third of that time. Not to mention we are ENGAGED. ...but I still get constant mixed messages about whether it's "his" place or "our" place. I get no control over the thermostat, which basically means I'm freezing at least 80% of the time. And I mean cold to the point where it sometimes makes my muscles hurt. Up until he got a second cable line to the living room I had no control over the TV. I'd usually get snapped at for trying to touch the remote. I just feel like he makes all the rules & I'm just expected to comply. I dunno... maybe it just still comes down to the fact that I would like to have my own place for some amount of time at some point, before I get married. |
