I've spent the last 2 days (And admittedly quite a few hours.) going through OD and looking for a picture I know I posted on there. I never found it. I gave up and I remembered I had also posted the picture on Myspace, and although mine got hacked and my photos on there got deleted I knew it was in a blog post on there so I got back on myspace after all these years and ... It's just a music site now I guess. All the blogs were gone. That sucks balls. Oh well. Goodbye picture of me with short dark brown hair and "hipster" glasses with my collection of Buffy The Vampire DVDs proudly displayed behind me. You shall be missed.
I just painted my nails a bit ago. They are a lovely shade of pink called "Rose at dawn, broke by noon". With a clear coat of spackle called "strobe" on top. It's black and white different sized speckles and it looks like when you have paint on the brush and then just splat it on the paper without touching it ... I like it a lot. I'm not allowed to wear nail polish at work but Paris and I went and got our nails "did" last Friday after I got my taxes done. I am getting about 5,000 bucks back. I need it. I might be moving soon. It's time for changes in this bitches life, and the money will be most helpful in that endeavor.
Being a single female, I have been spending most my time and now moneys on make-up and fashion-y things. I've never been to "in" on the world of fashion, but it's enjoyable to focus on things that are pretty and fun, for now at least. I started subscribing to mail order boxes that send you things to sample and use, usually for about half the price if not more than what they are worth. Reading up on what works and what doesn't, beauty tips and blogs on how not to look like an idiot. I've always loved make-up but never really put much thought into techniques and all you can really get out of it. Even the cheap drug-store stuff.
In that same region, I've been looking around the interwebs for/about all the cool stuff you can make yourself, usually on the cheap and largely with things that you already own. My face was really red and dry from the harsh winter I guess and who would have thought coconut milk could fix that shiz?
In work related blah blahs, my bitch boss Amy is no longer my boss, so I am glad I hung in there I suppose. (Paris quit dietary and moved to housekeeping.) I have a new boss named Chris who used to work as a cook and is super friendly and fucking awesome. Very understanding and willing to work with you on like ... everything. Plus he trusts me that I'm not a complete moron and I know how to turn around without getting an okay.
I thought about moving up north about 2 hours, to where Ashley is living ... (She had her second baby! Adian. He's super cute!) I casually mentioned it to her on the drive home from our last visit, and she called me a week later with 2 places for me to stay in my budget and a full-time job, and if for some reason if I didn't have a babysitter in the summer while Kat's out of school, I can bring Kat with me to work. It seems like a really awesome deal, and I love the small town feel ... Its like Osseo, but the houses are farther apart. Very much what I want, but its a 2 hour drive for all my friends and family ... except Ash, which is a pretty big difference. But I'd have my own house ... which c'mon guys, I've been whining about for years now.
On the other side of the spectrum, Nick wants me to move out to Minneapolis where he is. Its like a 20 minute drive, which is about the only thing I feel it has going for it. I don't like crowded city type places, but he insists its not that crowded. There are museums and shows to take Kat to and Nick says he will babysit. First of all, its more expensive out there, and who knows how much my new job (If I find one) will pay me. #2, Nick and I just started talking again about a week ago, since our breakup 8 months ago. I really tried to hate him and not talk to him, but he makes that very difficult. He says me moving up north is like taking Kat and hiding her away in the house. But she will have a nice yard, be by the lake for fishing, swimming, skating in the winter ... Plus with a new house and nice place ... and Im sure she'll make friends ... I wouldnt be so weird about having people over. I know he loves her and wants to see her, but I think this place could be really good for us. I'm honestly not trying to be selfish, just trying to see the whole big picture.
Kat and I are still writing her dad. He calls sometimes but I guess there is a lockdown going on because there is a war going on between the "whites and the natives" and people are getting "Stabbed up" and the body count is "spiking."
I guess you can say I am doing well. And what else can you really ask for.
