In which I just got out of a great interview. (And the gig is only a mile from my house! Guess who can walk or ride a bike to work if she gets hired!) OMG OMG OMG I might soon be gainfully employed! In my industry, even! The hiring company is called Integratechs; the gig […]
In which I just checked my voice mail. I have an interview tomorrow afternoon for a helpdesk position at a “medical facility” (probably a clinic, but maybe a hospital, I don’t know because an outsourced IT company is actually doing the hiring). The pay range is $10-$14 an hour, DOE, which is about right for […]
In which I make an admission. And then we move on, people! Nothing to see here! Okay, so, like, yeah: last week was an embarrassing series of over-indulgences. I overate, I partied all night (booze ain’t diet food, and neither was that nacho cheese served at afterhours), and yes, I smoked cigarettes too. (Not a […]
In which this post is, like, totally ILLUSTRATED. I lost two pounds last week, in spite of that four-slices-of-pizza debacle. I lost no inches, though, because of all of those damned squats and crunches and push-ups and shit. Nine weeks to go to achieve my goal weight. So naturally, yesterday Adam sent me some Swedish […]
In which there’s a YouTube video. Sorry. Okay, I’m obsessed with this track right now. It’s musical brain crack, as far as my musical brain is concerned. This is only the second time I’ve ever embedded a YouTube video here ever (and the first time the video was of me). So it’s not like I […]
In which I talk about stuff that was never before interesting to me: exercising, dieting, and not smoking. I haven’t smoked since March 29th – twelve days ago, now. I can breathe, my tongue isn’t covered with slime when I wake up in the morning, I don’t clear my throat elevendy-hundred times a day, and […]
In which I spent all day in my fucking room. I worked out, I surfed intensely and endlessly for nothing, I folded some laundry and didn’t fold some other laundry. Except I did go out – I walked my dog. Twice. She’s old. Like, 13 or 14 old. We didn’t walk very fast. I made […]
In which I’m obsessed with age-appropriate things: food, weight, and exercise. Gawd. I rewarded myself for a week of smoke-free living by buying some groovy skins from DecalGirl. I found a 30% off code so I got three: one for my netbook, one for my cell phone, and a new one for the Kindle. I […]
In which I’m being very good and deserve lots of presents. I haven’t had a cigarette in five days. When I go out at night and everyone steps outside to smoke, I have a 4mg nicotine lozenge. Most of the rest of the time, I just ride it out. The NRT literature suggests that I […]
In which I complain. Again! You know what’s weird? Sometimes I go to my favorite bar, order a drink, and stick my nose in a book. I know, right? I have, over the years, had people pick fights with me while I read in a bar. I’ve had people physically take my book away from […]
