Roll the Chariot Along

So, here it is! *cue trumpet* The fantastic, new, APRIL blog!!!!

...Yeah, I'm sure you're all jumping up and down in anticipation. Anyway, I FINALLY own my own bed-YAY!!!! I'm no longer sleeping on a futon. Which I am absolutely stoked about. And I've managed to rearrange my room into something that resembles a miniature living room. I've still got the futon in there, but I've got my tv set up so I can watch from the futon, my movies, various endtables, and my stereo. I am happy that I've got something that feels more like my room now.

My cats are spastic as ever. It's kind of sad when you know that the older cat is the smartest of the bunch-and she's none too bright to start with. Oh well. C'est la vie.

Although I'm currently employed with the county, I've been looking at other jobs because I'm not counting on job security past June, when the new fiscal year starts on July 1st. We'll see what happens, but just to be on the safe side....Besides, I need to start paying off my student loans. Which also starts in July. You can see my problem.

Although I didn't get into JET, my friend in Monterey did (you know who you are!!), for which I'm glad. If things get somewhat better, I might actually be able to hop a flight there and stay for a little bit. I dunno, maybe a week. If I'm flying out of country, gotta make it worth it, you know?

And I was able to make my trip to Monterey this month. If my supervisor ever gets back to me, I'll also be able to hit Ren Faire this weekend or next. Can't do it the weekend of the 16th, because I'll be back in Monterey for my friends' graduation. Speaking of, you know how weird it is to come to the realization that I've been graduated for a year? I've got very mixed feelings about it. I just...it's very mixed. *shrug* Oh well. When I feel the need to get it off my chest I'm sure I will. To leave everyone with a happy thought though, remember: knowledge is power. Power is corruptive. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. If you become an absolute scholar, then you have absolutely corrupted power. But at that point, the spectrum of good and evil is so far beneath you that you don't have to worry about being moralistic.

Have a nice day. :)
