I'm at work again. Tryin to figure out what my next step will be. Hrm. I guess my next step
this morning should be that I work on the stuff that needs to be done. Tomorrow, however, is a new day. I believe I shall look for further employment, as my current financial status is not majestic enough to merit a mention in a public place, such as this. Tomorrow I seek. And fear not, I will continue my self-indulgent recounting of my move to Mississippi at a later time.

Well, I've not updated this blog in like... 8 months? For good reason, however. Allow me to explain:
After my last post, last July, I was very frustrated. Why? My girlfriend lived 1800 miles away, my car (read: money pit) was a piece of crap, I felt as if I was going to drop of exhaustion (physical and emotional) and it wasn't going to change significantly (from what I could see) for some time. Well, things were going to get worse before they got better. Three weeks after my last post, my girlfriend came to town. Which was good. Very good. So there was a kicker that sent me into the sky for a while. But. While she was here, I crashed my car. Cosmetic damage, as well as further engine damage, further then what I had
already sustained. So to me, this was irreparable, and I said 'time for a new car'. Well, my mom bailed me out of that one (Again.), and loaned me the down payment on a new car. My insurance went up approximately 200%, and I was doing
OK. Not
good, great or even better than ok. Just,
OK.Well, then I lost my job. My job I loved, the job I didn't mind putting in 30% overtime a
week, the job I thought I could stay at forever. Gone, in one day. I started looking, and hoping and praying and desperately looking and hoping and praying. Then I threw up my hands and had to throw away a personal privilege that I held very dear, and get a full time job.
What was I
thinking or
planning at this point? Well, I suppose that would ruin the story. So allow me to continue:
I got a full time job that I could tolerate, and I made the best of it (my only option). Three months later, my Jessica came to visit, and I asked her to be my wife. She saw it coming... and she STILL SAID YES! Wow!
Anyhow, 3 months following
that I packed up and moved to the great state of Mississippi.
to be continued...

so due to the sheer amount of things that have gone
not right today, i've developed several nervous reactions to things that go on around me. if for instance, the
earth is
round, at
any given point in time, i get a sort of twitch inside my inner ear. it sounds like a slight rumbling, as if i'm sitting amongst a gentle rolling earthquake. the
sky being blue aggravates me so much that i've started tearing my lips to shreds, chewing on them like a rabid wolf would chew on a small childs leg. which, of course, leads to an increase in the expense of
buying chap-stick to an all time high. my legs no longer know how to sit still as they develop
an atrophy in minutes time, leading to an abnormal amount of cramps in my legs and the arches of my feet. i am not sure if i will be able to sleep tonight, despite the fact my caffeine intake seems to have dipped significantly. however i'm more on edge than i ever was in my seven plus years of addiction to caffeine. the sunlight hurts my eyes, even though it's overcast and there is very little, actual, sunlight. my writing this on my blog aggravates me a lot as well, however,
not writing it on here would aggravate me more. do you understand? if anyone does, email me, i'd like to know what it means.
