Things seem like they change every day! But now I feel alittle settled...
Couple of weeks ago moved into new apartment ( a nice one! With an actual bedroom!) with my boyfriend Mike and our two fuzzies Mr. Blonde (orange) and Azzrael (Black). Mike was still out of work, and I never recuperated fully from not making much money this summer, so times hit kinda tough for alittle... but now my bigger paychecks are rolling in (from being at the office 40hrs a week) and he got an AWESOME job slinging matresses and beds (I know- how exciting but it pays the bills) and is gonna be making more than he ever has at any other job, and is very excited. He just started training yesterday. Only thing that sucks is our schedules are gonna conflict alot.
What stinks even more is he has to go away next week for training. : (
I don't know how I am gonna handle being in our apt all by myself, but atleast I still have our little furry guys.
School started back up, only taking two courses, but love the clasess and the profs!
I decided that the last piece of the puzzle for my happiness is getting out of this office while I am still young, so I told my parents that I am seriously pursuing a job now. I applied to one of the biggest disabilities centers in the area Friday, they happen to be hiring for elementary autism, and were excited to have me fill out an app and submit my resume. Keeping my fingers crossed! ALthough I know I have the job, they are more needy for me than I am for them right now. But, i know how things work so I am not counting on it. HTing that really stinks, they pay very very little, since they are nonprofit, so I eventually would need a second job. And if they don't call, I am still on a waiting list for the school I worked at this summer, and they pay more (barely). I am just eager to start working in it now, this office really drags me down and sucks the life outta me, and I have been here way to long and put up with too much abuse.
My little furry guys are being non stop troublemakers as usual.
So, I am hanging in there... atleast I feel confident that everything is gonna be ok. As long as I work on it, of course!

It sounds like things are really falling into place for you guys now... awesome! And I'm glad to hear that you're pursuing something that will make you happier job-wise; life is way too short to waste time at a job that sucks the life out of you, that's for sure. Fingers crossed!

Thanks for the encouragement, it is nice to have some ups after being so in the dumps lately!
And yes, life is too short to have a job you hate, I have dealt with it for too long!
