angelak | Wednesday random post!

Alright. So for a normal post. You know, those posts I used to write all the time during day instead of working? Well, it’s been very busy the past few months here at the office. And I don’t tend to post as much when it’s busy.
Which is good. At the same time, my posting habits have changed.

Random post for the day:
I think it’s time for a few things to happen and yet I am uncertain as to when I will schedule these:

- I need to go in for acupuncture. (Maintenance on my back.) It’s been really, really good – though lately I think it’s telling me just to go in. And it has been months since I went in, thanks to the break-up. I should try and make an appointment for Saturday – today.

- THERE. Made an appointment – 12:15 Saturday morning. I can be all relaxed for OLOTEAS – although I will have driven to Burien and back because… dun dun! [Sarah’s wedding reception.]

- My hair is moderately straightened and in a half-ponytail. Yeayness.

- My during-the-week spending is being restricted – says me. New car, clumsy move with the cell phone, trying to begin the long process of saving money for a someday down payment. It all feels so overwhelming. AND I am single, make good money and have low rent. How would it be if I were otherwise???? Omfg. The car and laptop were worth it, regardless.

- Adjusting to the fact I changed my spending habits entirely this year.

- 2006 has been very good to me, just as I had prayed it would be. I hope the rest of it is as good as the last few months have been.

- To begin hiking with more weight? I think I will. We’ll see.

- I strongly dislike when you make one statement one day and someone uses that judgment as to how you feel about something every other day. IE: Once, Ray asked me how work was. I shrugged and was like, “it was O-K.” Some other time he asked me how it was and he was like, “oh, wait. I know how you are.” At that point I was like, “whoa…” in my head. “My one O-K day equated to the rest of my work-days being… the same? I’m completely hot and cold with my job these days. 4 years, same thing? Who doesn’t get that way? This isn’t a justification. It’s a statement. I am the kind of person who typically takes a LOT of pride in my job and my work. And I think it bugged me, even a little still, that there is someone out there who thinks otherwise.

- Yesterday I hiked Tiger Mountain and shaved 10-15 minutes off my usual hour and a half time. That’s a big deal! I love jogging downhill now.

- It feels good when several people comment on my hiking and indicate that they are impressed. I suppose a little validation isn’t a bad thing? I still feel silly when they can all see me red-faced and dripping sweat.

- I love using hair things! I have new hair clips (some from the dollar store, some not.) galore, and I am having fun being able to mess with my hair. It’s short, so I can!

- I feel special when my guy calls me.

- I’m a little in shock; I have a boyfriend. It hasn’t sunk in. Maybe in another 3 months I’ll believe it.

- I am looking forward to OLOTEAS this weekend. And for some reason I didn’t even think to invite Jim. Oops. See above.

- Feels like forever since I saw Moshker.

- I’m hungry and I do not want to eat and I do not want to spend money on buying food to eat for the second.

- I’m loving my car and struggling with a name for it. I think I might name it “Classy.”

- A friend of mine insists if there are two things a girl must be, it is Classy and Fabulous. I agree.

- I get to hang out with chinchillagirl on Saturday. W00t w00t.

- Mass Sunday!

- Life is good.

- Work is slow today. AIM is acting up. I am not used to having to re-inform new people in my life about the things that people who have been in my life for long periods of time already know. IE – it doesn’t matter if I am late to work typically, though I prefer to be on time. Flex schedule and lots of flexibility with this office. I do not think there really is a way to describe my job easily without making me sound like a complete slacker sometimes.

- I need to suspend my gym membership, and call the other insurance agent and get that started.

- I wanna get personalized window stickers (the kind that aren’t sticker sticky) for my car. I also want a Bluetooth headset for my new phone that someday I will get in this month or so. *sighs* But why the fuck does Bluetooth have to be so expensive??????

- Except we all KNOW I would use it. I am that girl who is always on the phone because she lives alone and hates it. That is, when I am not at home reading, watching Gilmore Girls, playing with the dogs, or hiking. (or going to the gym, or schooling.)

- Maybe I need an XBOX. Hahahahaha. As if I’d spend that much on it. If I weren’t shifting my focus into saving because I’m 21 and far too old not to have any and I have no excuse not to have any savings except that I bought cars and crap instead of saving. And when I did save I paid off loans. (IE – my furniture.)

- My mom makes it easier for me to ignore that screaming voice in my head telling me to be responsible with my money. Is that bad?

- My mom, however – is one of my best friends EVAR.

- Someday I want a room mate. It feels impossible.

- School hates me. Math hates me. I need to seek chinchillagirl out and make this happen. I’ve got to create the change in my life that I want to be so. I can make this a reality. *sighs*

- I am starving. I need a snack.

This concludes my post.
