Real life, what? *falls over*

Having been a monumentally huge slacker about keeping anyone out there who actually cares about my life, um, actually updated, I thought, well, now's as good a time as any.

Mm... start with the...

New Fandom, wha'?*
Okay, so [livejournal.com profile] karotsamused started the whole Naruto thing, but the crack continues mostly due to my inability to leave well enough alone. Kakashi owns me. Well, him and Sasuke, but more importantly Kakashi has laid firm hold on my Roymuse so now I'm all shades of screwed.

Anyone out there recommend some good fic? Any characters really, and it doesn't have to be slashy, just in character. Come on, lay it on me!

I'm insane, nugh.**
So, I've been trolling [livejournal.com profile] campfuckudie.... *headdesk* *squirms* Damnit I want to play! Please remind me that I'm insane. ...but but but they don't have a Ken! *flail* I could play Ken if I can get my ass in gear the next time they take applications... Heh. Okay, yeah, it's one of those "reallyreally want to but..." kind of things. Um.. If I decide to actually go through with this anyone out there want to give any advice? *dorks out*

Life-job-life
Umm... So, my last day of work was Friday. There was a minimum of angst and I made it home in one piece.

Yesterday though....I GOT A NEW JOB.

Ahem.

*can't help the mad dance of gainful employment* !!!

I'll be working in recruiting for a large company and getting actual equivalent compensation. Which. Wow. My having a degree and good phone skills is finally going to pay off. The first day is Friday and because the Company has several job fares next week I'll be going to those all on my own and setting up and everything. I'm tad intimidated, but I feel like I've got the skills for this. I'm tough *poses and growls*. Most importantly this sounds like a job I could actually really like. AHAhah! Seriously. I'm out of my mind with relief about this. I'll be able to pay my rent and maybe I'll even look into getting a new used car. Though not until after I pay my parents back the $500 I owe them from the last time we had to have this one fixed.

...*grins* Dude, I feel there is a nice little station wagon in my future.

Life-advice-life
Just for those couple of people I've been talking to recently.

It's all good and it gets better and just letting life happen is a totally valid way to live. Do what you gotta and then keep on doing it. For all that I moan and wail, life is good. Just being here, knowing that, yeah, He does work good through all we do, well, it's good. And that's pretty darn excellent.


*I now start almost every conversation with "I want to be a ninja." At least I know what my Halloween costume this year is going to be. Eeeeeexcellent. XD
**Um. Also? They don't have a Bobby. Dude, what's camp without at least one X-man? Looking at this objectively they'd both be fun, and neither of my boys get enough love, but... *laughs* Adding mutants to that mix would just rock things upside-down and sideways. ...but I get ahead of myself. Heh.

Hooray! Congrats on the new job. We should all get a victory dinner at the new FUDRUCKERS they opened up in Mission Valley.

Dude, we're doin' Hash House next week.

You know you wanna come. Uh huh, yeeeeah, that's what I thought. Rock. On. *G*

[identity profile] singmebackhome.livejournal.com 2005-09-21 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I am always down for the House o' Hash. Just tell me and night and I'm there.

[identity profile] runefallstar.livejournal.com 2005-09-21 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Brilliant.

Um. No idea when we're goin'. Umm... maybe Tuesday or Weds? Something like that. We'll figure it out. *G*

[identity profile] karotsamused.livejournal.com 2005-09-21 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
*bows* I'm SO not sorry. I'll clean up the Roy-and-Kakashi convo and put it up under DV-lock later tonight. XD

...I seriously need another Naruto icon.

And. Though I was there when you told me on AIM? I am still totally stoked you have a job again ^^ It was one of those things I worried about whenever I thought of you.

*coughschokes* Station wagon? *incredulous grin* Will it go to OHIO with you??

[identity profile] runefallstar.livejournal.com 2005-09-21 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
....I suffer under the sneaking suspicion that conversation was only the first of many to come.

*can't mangage to stifle the distinctly Kakashi-esque grin*


And, dude, just tell me what kind of icon you want and I'll make it. *G* Still gotta make my Sasuke!Flail icon XD




...station wagons are great! Don't make fun XP
Really though, they're just... I mean, for camping and when I finally get a dog and getting people around and if I get the Getta one like I want, then I'll even get decent gas mileage. Heh. *rubs back of her head, sheepish* Kinda wanted one for, um... ever, really. heh.

[identity profile] karotsamused.livejournal.com 2005-09-21 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
XD Should I just take over for Roy or what? I think we need Kakashi-and-Ed scenes just to see what you do. XD

I don't make fun of station wagons. I just find your correlations amusing as HELL. I like station wagons, me ^^

Icon? Hmmmmm...
XD I must go on an imagehunt.

*cackles* *bounces* Oh, yes, yes! We definitely need an Ed and Kakashi scene.

...*plotplotplot* ... XD


Dude, I've got shopping and dinner and such this evening, but I'll be on later-- save up your images and I'm your girl *G*

Heh um.
I have an 8 AM class tomorrow and a movie night from 8-10 tonight. That gives me about an hour of online time if I head straight home and I can make it to bed at the time I want to try. We'll see how things go. ^^;

*snugs* Heh, had an open comment sitting for like two hours here. XD Oh well

*bounces around and twirls* Still on cloud nine for ya, chica. ^_~

*laughs* If only!

Actually, the new job looks like it's gonna be preeeetty sweet after all. *G*

[identity profile] mistressrenet.livejournal.com 2005-09-22 11:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yay for the new job! And I will be glad to give you advice-- you should first check [livejournal.com profile] campersfuckoff, though, as there is now a fuckload of good advice there, only some of which is from me. XD
