10 Things... just an update

1. Yesterday, Kaskade's new CD came out. Ummm... Ah-May-ZING. It is ridiculous how he can continue to put out new albums all the time, all are different from each other, and all are absolutely delicious.

2. Today was an interesting day. As I was leaving the OG, the CFO stopped me in the parking lot and told me he wanted me there full time. I jokingly told him I wanted 100K a year... he chuckled. It's interesting, because I've heard a lot of talk about my position turning full time quickly, but haven't been officially offered anything yet. Full time was the original intent of this job anyway... hmmm.

3. I worked at CC this afternoon in the same office as my boss, which is extremely odd. I'm able to work remotely, but for project we were working on this was the best option. I didn't leave there until after 9pm tonight and I'm exhausted. I was supposed to go to one of our clients to be "introduced" but we needed to focus more on this. They want to (potentially) hire me for 20 hours a week.... we'll see. ;)

4. I did about an hour of my Rosetta Stone last night... I might do some more tonight.

5. Saffie got her first taste of Texas last night as well. She's yet to go outside here but I think she likes it. She's gained a lot of weight being inside because she doesn't get the exercise she's used to. Hopefully, with the ponds and such, she'll do well out there. It might get a little too hot though.

6. This weekend should be pretty relaxing. Fran will be out of town all weekend and I'll have it to myself. Right now, the forecast calls for rain and thunderstorms from Friday to Monday, but I hope that changes. 60% chance. Oy! I need some pool-time!!!!

7. I was craving chinese food tonight. I probably shouldn't have splurged because I've been doing really well budget-wise as well as diet-wise... but it's been a long and stressful week! I have had the urge to work out every day this week but something or the other has kept me from it!!

8. I've set up a nice little schedule to pay off my debt. It involves about $1000 a month in payments, but I'll feel oh-so-free once I do it. :) I may even try to speed up the process by getting a weekend gig. If I could even make an extra $500 a month by working just Saturdays, that would be awesome!

9. The roomie is a LOT less annoying than he used to be. I think it has something to do with him breaking up with his girlfriend. She was ridiculous. He's much more fun without her :)

10. I. Am. Exhausted. Yet, I love what I do and continue to have that drive I need... it's such a great feeling knowing that I made the right decision in life. And to think, I made it at 21 years old. ;) So happy....

Crazy random update

So I had four very good topics to write about tonight, but I'm just not feelin it. In fact, I'm just not feelin much as of late. In my last post, I talked to you about a few things going on - believe me, there's much more! Hopefully, one day VERY soon, these posts can be funny little nothings that you all enjoy reading on the regular.

To update, I got a new roommate tonight. Someone super awesome responded to my craigslist ad and decided to take the place. She moves in August 17 or so.

Michael left earlier this week and I'm deeply saddened. He was the basis for most of what I did in my non-work and non-school time, so we'll see how this all goes. He had his first meeting today at his new job and that went well. Hooray for him!

I went into the restaurant today and two very fabulous people in my life came in for lunch. They were super sweet and tipped me a ridiculous amount of money which was completely uncalled for. Anyway, I didn't lose my job. The general manager was, as usual, bitchy about it. Gotta love her life, right?

My little saff-ster who likes to play with other kitties outside has brought back something little and annoying with her. Fleas. I fucking hate fleas. I suppose I need to get a new flea collar for her and get rid of these little pests before it gets out of control. They multiply like rabbits. Only quicker.

So... I graduated. Technically, but not officially. I had my last class last night with a presentation. One of our group members completely bombed her portion of the presentation because she showed up for our practice 45 minutes late. Heh. Good thing for Peer Evals. I should know by Saturday what my grade is in this class. I'm thinking it's going to be a B+. I will be completely shocked if I get an A- or something.... that would mean Dean's list two semesters in a row.

I have a list of movies to see at the theater a mile long. The Ugly Truth, The Proposal, Julie and Julia, Humpday, 500 days of summer, Funny People, The Time Traveler's Wife... etc. That's 7 movies at 10 bucks a pop... I might just be waiting until their DVD release. How can they do that to us and release SO MANY great movies all at one time?!

I've been listening to a few fabulous songs recently. Perhaps you might want to check them out too...

The Kings of Leon - Sex on Fire
James Morrison feat. Nelly Furtado - Broken Strings
JES - My love
The Pussycat Dolls - Jai Ho
Chris Lake - If you knew
The Kings of Leon - Use Somebody
Carrie Underwood - Wasted
Lady Sovereign - So Human
Safetysuit - Stay

So that's about it for me. Like I said earlier, I'll probably start to update this neglected blog more frequently as I become me again. ;)

Saffie!

There she is. Miss America :) That's my little Saffie right there... She's about 4 1/2 human years old (not sure how old that makes her in kitty years). And yes, Saffie is her real name. It stems from Safron (something about the stars?) and no, I didn't name her... my old roommate did!

I just got her back from having to leave her at a friends house for two weeks and boy is she thankful to be back with her mom! She doesn't leave my side, purrs 24/7, and wants to be petted in my lap all the time. This is a complete 180 from the kitty I knew before... the one that was content just being in the same room as you - no need to touch her whatsoever.

I love her! (she's got an email address and a myspace, too. Haha!)
