February 2014 Summary

First Week: I totally forgot how balls out sick I was.  I've got a sinus headache today, it seems I'll always be doomed to start the year feeling like crap.

Second Week: My BFF has to do a paper on the Lego Movie this month, so it's a little silly that a year ago this month I went to see it and wasn't impressed.  I guess I was in the minority. I celebrated Valentine's day on the 10th last year, and on the 11th this year.  We went to a hotel room even though we shouldn't be spending the money. 

It sort of hurt my heart to read the part where I thought I was seeing G for the last time.  I was transported back to how horrible that all felt.  I'm so glad we were able to get past everything.  The self centered girl who was pregnant had her kid, and it had many, many problems.  It seems her self centered days are over.

Third Week: The friend I gave the geode to recently had some sort of breakdown and temporarily moved back home.  My heart breaks for him, and at the same time he won't really let anyone in to help.  I guess some things you must do on your own.

I still want a baby goat.  I'm sad that I didn't get to work in the photo studio.

Fourth Week: I'm still getting shafted by pharmacies.  The non-nazi doctor just called in a prescription to the wrong pharmacy -_-
"A leopard doesn't lose their spots completely?" Geez, I wrote that?  Loser.

My takeaway from the month is that a lot of shit and sickness went down, and I guess I should stop being a mopey bitch today.  I was feeling very alone, but obviously I'm better off than I was this time last year.  I need to cheer up and get to applying for more jobs.

January 2014 Summary

First Week:  Well, it's nice that I lost around 5 pounds during the course of the year.  I also seems to get deathly sick every January.  "I just need to prepare myself for the town it has turned into, rather than the town it was 10 years ago." I'm still getting used to that.  My love for Tim Gunn has never wavered. My sister's cat is still a pain in the ass.

Second Week: I wish my period was late.  It seems it is always early now.  I still have "Her" on my Amazon Wish list.  I'm glad that G and I got our friendship back after a short time.  People still expect me to be the one that drives everywhere, and it still kinda pisses me off.  I'm glad I don't have cubicle mates anymore.

Third Week: I still love dirty martinis.  I don't even remember Under the Gunn, which I guess says something about why there was no season 2.  Melrose Place was a hellva show.

Fourth Week: Awkward that a sweet text from a friend is someone I never speak to again weeks later.  I can count the times I've had quinoa on one hand.  I should have it more often I guess.  I'm still mad about how expensive Disneyland is.  I'm not getting headaches as often anymore, which is good.  I am having more soda than I ever did, which is bad.  I've got to stop that.

Takeaway from this month would be that I knew exactly what I was getting into with my decision.

FAIL

I started to look over my project, and true to form I actually failed this project.  June 13th is missing.  And August 29th. Oh yeah, and October 9th.  So, first impression is I'm a big fat failure.  Makes me want to just give up on my Instagram project this year.

New Years Eve. New Year, New Resolution

I'm up early to let in the handyman for a check up on our heater. I got an email this morning that the three hour interview was for nothing. I was almost relieved. 

Of course, that means I'm truly unemployed going into the New Year. 

My mom wants me to pursue writing and photography as a means of making money. I'm not sure I can work by myself like that, but I guess only time will tell what next year holds for me. 

I think this writing exercise has been both good and bad.  Good in that it forced me to write every day, which was something that I needed to do anyway. Bad in the sense that I don't feel like I got any good quality writing out of the entire year.  I didn't work on my novel at all, and the November project completely messed up my entire writing style. I think a photography challenge would be a little better for next year, as it affords me more time to write creatively. I'm going to few hours left to decide what kind of photography challenge it will be. 

I'll be back here to consolidate the months and see exactly what I learned from it. Hopefully I can still get something out of it. 

Until then, Happy New Year everyone. 

Do You Wanna Build a Snowman?

I am awake at 5 AM and it snowed several inches. Hubby was awake for a minute, so I asked if he wanted to build a snowman. He said no. :-(

Later we did a thousand things and hubby scared me by sliding all over the road.  I guess I'm not over my near accident.

A 3 Hour Interview

I had a three hour interview today. I either nailed it or bombed because I bombed the math test.

Into the Woods

The BFF, hubby, mom and I went to see Into the Woods. Mom bailed on food afterwards so we got burritos and took a trip to Sam's Club. We bought the BFF's BF a frame for his mattress and loaded it in my trunk hilariously. It came to about 3 inches from the steering wheel to the backseat. Then we went to the BFF'S house and talked about how awesome it was too be living in the same town.
