Once again, long time no post. It's odd how I haven't really felt the . . . impulse to blog lately. I mean, stuff goes on, thought spin around in my head, but I'm just usually too tired or busy to sit down and blog about them. I notice that almost no one comes and reads this anymore. But hey, why would they come and read when there's nothing new. Plus, the damn comment system STILL isn't working. Whenever it loads on my own computer, it says: "Done, with errors on page". So I don't know if there's just something wrong with my computer, or with the actual comment system. BUT, I do have something to blog that I know I'll want comments on, so I guess I'll just have to post that on Live Journal.
But yeah, so I finally got a job other than BK. It's a temp job through a hiring agency,so it's not long term, but it's something different, which I desperately needed. I put my resume up on monster.com, and I just got called up out of the blue one day and asked if I could come in for an interview.
Well, basically, I was seriously misled as to what the job was actually going to be. I am not working in a lab, using my degree, working semi-flexible hours, nor getting $12 an hour like I was led to believe. I'm actually sorting and weighing corn 7 days a week till my supervisor decides to let me go home, for $9.50 an hour. So the job is INCREDIBLY boring and INCREDIBLY easy, but it pays better, and I don't have to deal with rude customers, and it LOOKS better on a resume' than BK does. Plus, it only lasts till mid-october, thank god. Any longer, and I have no doubt that I would be going postal.
Hamlet is going fantastically! I love it! It's so much fun! We just finished choreographing the HUGE CLIMACTIC swordfight at the end the other day. Everyone says I'm doing REALLY well for a beginner. I'm learning so much. I'm so grateful for this whole experience. I can't wait to open. This is going to be REALLY awesome! Everyone who possibly can should come see it! Everyone in it is so much fun to work with! Opens October 14th, and runs Friday and Saturday at 7:30 and Sunday at 2:00 for 4 weekends.
So yeah, work and the play pretty much take up my whole day. I haven't even gotten to really play FFXI in almost two weeks. I may have an hour or two here and there, and that's about it. And it's only going to get busier as opening weekend closes in. Thank god this job will be done by the time the show opens.
But yeah, for now I'm really missing everyone from Dana. I went to Tabby's b-day dinner last weekend, and it was so much fun seeing everyone again. I miss them all so much. Which is partly why I can't wait for the show to open so I can see them, and actually have nights off to go out and socialize during the week.
I also really need to start looking into grad school apps too, so I can get them done before December and be all set to go for this winter. Working in Hamlet, though, has opened my eyes to how far I really have to go. I have faith in myself, though. I can feel my talent and abilities lying there under the surface; I just have to learn to make them come out at will instead of the sporadic way they have been.
I also REALLY need insurance ASAP. I discovered that I was cut off from coverage the day I graduated, so all my medication and doctors visits from this summer were not covered, and I have to pay in full. Plus, insurance is still being difficult and not paying for the stuff I had done at the end of the school year, and that shit is EXPENSIVE. Anyway, for now I've been essentially cut off from all my medication and all my therapy because I can't pay for it. I think the only reason I haven't had a relapse is b/c I've been kept so busy. Or maybe I'm better. There's that too. But yeah, so I can also literally see my wisdom teeth coming in the back of my mouth. I can see the entire crowns exposed out of my gums. I hope I don't have any problems with those b/c there's no way in hell I can afford getting them removed. Hell, I hope I don't have any accidents or break any limbs b/c I just can't afford to go to the hospital.
Damn, that's a really scary thought . . .
Anyway, further postage will be on LJ for a little "project" that really requires comments on to actually accomplish anything. And maybe sometime I'll fix this damn comment thing on here.
