Well, I am at that point in my life again. I’m ready for a change. I need a new job. I’m sitting pretty in the position that I currently have, but I do not want to be here forever. I have gained some great experience in HR and I’m ready to take my knowledge to the next level.
I browsed craigslist today. This inspired me to update my resume, so that I have something current on hand. I’m either 1) Underqualified because I lack a degree. Or 2) Over qualified. I can take similar jobs with simlar pay, but I’m ready for something better.
This broght me back to the idea of continuing my education. I ment to go back much sooner. Life happened, one thing led to another and I’ve never re enrolled. I checked on the deadlines for financial aid. I’m getting all of my ducks in a row, and aiming for attending classes in the Fall 09. I can go back sooner, if my parents will cooperate and help me fill out the FAFSA. I’m still technically a dependent, even though I’ve been on my own for the past five years. Dumb.
I’m so excited about this weekend. Christina and I are going to the Reptile show at the Fair Grounds on Saturday. Then the gay pride parade is Sunday. I’ve been battling a nasty cold, but I do have faith that I can beat this by the weekend. Here’s to trying!

Blue Man Group was amazing. I definitely had a great time. I would like to see it again some time soon.
We started the evening at Chili’s, with our room mate, Amber and Christina’s sister, Sarah. Two for ones all day is never a bad deal. We realized as soon as we were seated that we had a lot less time than we originally thought. So we ordered drinks and and appetizer. Time came down to a crunch, and we had to leave. We pissed off the server by canceling the last drink. I would have felt bad, but she was just standing at the bar shooting the shit with the bartender when we approached her, after having waited on the drink for over 15 minutes. Amber and Sarah stayed, and ordered dinner.
Christina and I made it to City Walk and the show right in the nickof time. Poor Christina had to pee since we had left the restaurant and the bathrooms were packed, plus we were short on time. We were seated about 5 minutes prior to the show starting.
The show was quite the experience. I good blend of visual effects, humor and live music really does make it appeal in some way, to everyone.
When we got back to the house, we had a glass of wine with our room mate and her girlfriend “homegirl.“
I wish I had take the camera with us to City Walk. I’ve been really bad about carrying it with me lately. All in all, I think Christina had a great birthday. She said she had the best birthday ever. =)
The saga of my disgusting neighbors is finally coming to an end. The Uhaul pulled up yesterday. They were there for a little bit this morning, gathering more things. These people have been a thorn in my side for the last 3 years. I’m so glad to see them go.
Yesterday, I got to see an old friend. Krystal and I used to work together a while back. She and her girlfriend just moved in together. Christina and I spent part of the day there. We watched a movie and made a pizza. It was good to see her. I wish we could have spent more time catching up. There was an awkward silence most of the time. Unfamilular territory? Who knows.
Ethernal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind is on E! this morning. I’m trying to watch it in an effort to avoid waking up my sleeping girlfriend. She loves her sleep. I can’t stay in bed all day. I feel as if I’m wasting too much time. There are better things to do.
I finally got the Jeep back. She’s just as pretty as she was the day I bought her. While she was in the was in the shop, they were able to figure out why one of my turn signals hasn’t been working. Apparently, a squirrel or some other little creature decided it would be a good idea to gnaw on the main electrical harness. The little darling gnawed completely through two
wires (turn signal and tag light). And damaged seven others. All nine wires were repaired. By default, my stuck glove box was unstuck too. They took apart my dash to reach all of the damaged wires and thus unstuck the glove box. Awesome.
So there was $1,800 dollars worth of damage from the accident. The original estimate was less than half of that! Of course, as luck would have it, there was additional damage that was not noticed initially. The wire repair only cost me $113. Replacing the entire harness would have been about $1,500, just for the part. Luckily, the accident wasn’t my fault, so the $1,800 was covered by homeboys insurance.
Next on my project list:
- Oil Change
- New Tires
- Transmission flush
- Battery
- Order part and repair window track

My new favorite song of the moment. Hot!
Saving Abel – Addicted
I’m so addicted to
All the things you do
When you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breath you take
It’s not like anything
When you’re loving me
Oh girl lets take it slow
So as for you well you know where to go
I want to take my love and hate you till the end
It’s not like you to turn away
From all the bullshit I can’t take
It’s not like me to walk away
I’m so addicted too all the things
You do when you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breathe you take
It’s not like anything
When you’re loving me
Yeah
I know when it’s getting rough
All the times we spend
When we try to make
This love something better than
Just making love again
It’s not like you to turn away
All the bullshit I can’t take
Just when I think I can walk away,
I’m so addicted to all the things
You do when you’re going on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make
With every breathe
It’s not like anything
I’m so addicted to the things you do
When you’re going down on me
Or the sound you make with every breath you take
It’s not like anything when you’re loving me
Yeah
When you’re loving me
How can I make it through
All the things you do
There’s just got to be more to you and me
I’m so addicted to all the things you do
When you’re going down on me
In between the sheets
Or the sound you make with every breath you take
It’s not like anything
It’s not like anything
I’m so addicted to
All the things you do
When you’re going down on me
Or the sound you make with every breath
You take it’s not like anything
I’m so addicted to you
Addicted to you
Well, my Jeeps still in the shop. I’m barely getting any sleep at night. I’m going to go spend about an hour relaxing in the tub. I need to just forget about this world for a while.

There’s this cougar at work. She’s old enough to have grandchildren, I’m young enough to be her daughter. Well, she’s after me. The text messages aren’t stopping. I’ve asked her to stop. I’ve explained that I’m in a relationship. I know how to handle these situations, I work in HR for Christ’s sake. She’s got some ambition about her. She’s not stepping down.
In other news, Canadian scientists have found that a small group of prostitutes in Kenya are resistant to HIV. Check out the blog I read, here.

I got into an accident about two weeks ago. I was hit from behind, pushed into another vehicle and that vehicle was pushed into another. Four cars total. Thank you Hurricane Fay. The roads were wet, it was dark outside. Homeboy behind me got cited for the accident as the other three cars (mine included) were stopped at a red light.
After the insurance company, liability run around, my adjuster finally set up an appointment for my Jeep to get fixed. I took her in a couple of days ago. Yesterday, my service rep called to inform me that there is more damage than originally indicated. Basically, the frame was bent due to being sandwiched between two other vehicles. So, the repair shop is attempting to straighten out the bends. If it’s possible, I’ll get the Jeep back in a day or two. Worst case scenario, my Jeep’s totalled.
Most people who drive a 5 year old vehicle would be happy to total it out and get a new one. The thing is, I like my Jeep. She was the first thing I purchased as an adult with my own credit. I had purchased a pickup truck, previously, with a co-signer. The Jeep is rightfully mine, and something I’m proud of. I don’t want her to be totalled. Here’s to hoping they can get her frame back to within one millimeter of manufacturers specifications!
So they put me in a Malibu as a rental. I feel way too low to the ground, but other than that- I don’t mind it. It slightly reminds me of a different time in my life; when my girlfriends (at the time) mom had one. We used to borrow it in the middle of the night and joy ride through Winter Park. No one else has put soap in the fountains in that area in years.

Welcome to my blog. I’m beginning in the middle of the end. I am either very emotional, or forget emotion completely. I am wise beyond my years. There are no lines to think outside of. The glass is half broken. Excuse me for stepping on your toes.
I grew up with the vague sense that the pounding crash of emotions held tightly against my breast bone is probably the only thing keeping my heart beating. To release this emotion would be to take my last breath and expire. Forget about going to a therapist and letting it all out. I’m more afraid I’ll kill someone if I ever release that stored up energy. Maybe if you were weak and wounded, you wanted to let go. No one in their right mind would want to do something so dangerous. And so irresponsible.
