It's been a while...oh, and I'm old.

I'm sitting in the campus computer because poverty has fallen upon the Belle. I don't have internet at my house. I'm having to relearn life. No more IMDB, no more IM, no more checking my email at 4 AM. SO, what have I been doing? Here's a list:

  1. Going to class with people that I am ten years older than
  2. Going to Job #1, which involves smiling and bringing people peanuts and having to pretend to be nice. Anyone who knows me knows that "nice" isn't one of my main mindsets.
  3. Going to Job #2, where I sit in a room and file. It's quiet, there isn't anyone there to bother me and I just get left the hell alone.
  4. Finding old friends. It's suprising how many people stick around this town. It used to be a hippie magnent but now it's a fucking yuppie magnent.
  5. Painting more, as I have realized that I am still not fully recovered from the hell that was the pretentious soul sucking bastard from hell.
  6. Dealing with the fact that my "friends" from Atlanta have abandoned me.
  7. Getting lost. A lot. This town has changed. It's all gentrified now. Scary.
  8. Learning how to feed myself off of the tips I get from Job #1
  9. Living with three cats in a 400 square foot apartment. That really should have been number one.
  10. Learning to live with poverty. It SUCKS. All I ever get to buy is food and sometimes art supplies.
  11. Sitting on my "couch" wishing that it were actually comfortable and basically acting like an old woman. I'm crocheting Gnumoon a blanket for the bebe.
  12. Walking across campus and thinking "he's cute" and then realizing that he's like TWELVE
  13. Trying to convnice the Rugby coach that, while I am a frail old 28 years old, I still have the rage sufficient to play a game where the most fun thing isn't scoring a goal but kicking the shit out of someone.

That's thirteen. Since this is in the "More Bitching" category I thought I would go with the unlucky number. Since my luck hasn't been holding for much longer than a day recently maybe it will be opposite day today and I'll make tons and tons of money at Job #2 and it won't snow.
