Under Sea Garden

Considering the length of time since the last time I made a genuinely meaningful/informative/non-poetic update, I think the best I can hope for at this point is a list. Followed by the false promise of more updates in the future. Or something.

List of events of Mild Interest (no particular order or importance attached to numerical position)

1) I must, by tomorrow, have gotten a Food Handler's License for the cost of $25. Non-reimbursable. Javamart, I curse you and your coffee wares. Or, more importantly, your Soon To Arrive warmed up breakfast sandwiches. Pfft.

2) Had a 26th birthday sometime at the end of January which was pleasantly unexciting, and really quite nice for it's quiet and overall relaxedness.

3) New roommate. Though many of you have heard about this already. It's nice to not to have to worry about where that extra $650 for rent is going to come from.

4) Found trail runners that fit. IT IS ABOUT DAMN TIME TOO.

5) Diagnosed with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) and was poked at for a bit but now there are girly-pills of Happiness and Joy, which should help with things. U-unf.

6) Been approached about a promotion to full-time at the Job of Great Joy and Happiness. Good thoughts? Please please yes benefits and a little raise and good hours and I AM REALLY FINALLY REALLY SERIOUSLY GOOD AT A JOB I LOVE OHGODYESYES

7) ...I just thought I saw big sweaty men-sex on regular cable, but it was just wrestling. Oh well.

8) Sir? If you hate the way that brand fits and wears out too fast and rubs at your ankles? Stop. Buying. Them.

9) For all that I rarely update, I DO read my flist and stalk quite a few of you. H-hi you're cute and I have a brain crush on you. But also you should totally be dating that friend of yours heeee socute!

10) Getting to know some friends I already had a little bit better has just. Made the world a more excellent place. Seriously. We need to go do stuff more. ...LIKE THAT ONE STORE WITH RUBBER IN THE NAME. :D :D :D

11) The oranges at my parent's place are finally ripe. I think I could live off those things. Nnngsogood.

12) Being the lucky girlfriend of the bestest woman on earth makes me stupid happy, and I am reminded of this every day. Hi, baby I love you. ...I'm totally making squash anyway BUT I STILL LOVE YOU.

1..3...) ....Um. Eh heh. This is why I don't post 'cause I hit the point of "Um... I'm not interesting any more 'cause I'm hungry and want my Girl to get done with work so I can cuddle already."


Which is the point where I say, heeeeey. I'll post again soonish. Um. When I'm not thinking quite so much about how good an avocado sandwich would be right now.

So. Um. I know a couple people (Where "people" in this case should be translated to ready karotsamused and myself) who would very, very much like to get their hands on the manga of Ouran High School Host Club.

If any of you happen to either have it and are willing to share, or happen to know of a place where I might be able to get it, that would be most excellent.



In other news, I recently realized it's been MONTHS since I last did a "State of the Rune" type post and a fair number of you may think I'm dead by now. Hopefully some time today or tomorrow I'll actually pull my brain together enough to post one. In the mean time, have a very short list:

1. Lost job.
2. Found two jobs.
3. Have most wonderful girlfriend ever.
4. Getting up at 3:00am for work teh suckzorz.
5. karotsamused, bruisezonherego, cindelius and I make some seriously kick-ass christmas cookies. Rar.

Things I have done so far today:

Slept in.
Woken up because a poodle tried to lick up my nose.
Took Duncan to the vet.
Wrote a check for $74.
Ate a danish.
Realized I don't have any clean socks of my own.
Stolen a pair of my mom's socks.
Fed the Outside Cat.
Played with the Inside Cat.
Changed my shirt three times.
Written another paragraph on my FMA epic.
Put off going in to work by writing an lj post.


Things I will have to do later today:

Drive to work.
Write Change Letters.
File.
File.
Complain about filing.
File.
Check email.
File.
Go to dinner with coworkers.


It's the last bit that's going to kill me. Geh. It's not that I hate these people or anything, but the number of things we have in common would top the scales at a whopping Zero. I'm just hoping no one gets too drunk. Oh think of the fun that that would be.

Also, spoke with boss lady. I have until some time in July to find myself new work. *does mini-flail* I've really gotta get my butt in gear. I'll have been with this company almost exactly a year when I finally leave. I'd say that's about eight months too long.


ETA: Wait a second...these are MY socks! Hmph.
