Let me 'splain.
Nov. 25th, 2005 11:01 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
per_soloOk, I should clarify. :-P
The job at Anthem is now a certainty...at this point, unless one of the other jobs pans out at a higher rate, I'll start working for Anthem on the 20th of December. Which means that the last bottle of Root Beer that Lisa P. at ABG gave me will be consumed that day. :-)
Unless, all of a sudden, I find out that I WOULD be able to live ok and go to school at the same time.
Or, I get a hair up my ass and decide to go to Canada and try to make a living up there.
Feeling of impending major changes still there...dear PLG, I didn't have this sensation last year, so why hit me now? Obviously, the job things has jolted all my senses.
Of course, I still have a few weeks to figure out how to do school and work at the same time, that much is good, but again, what about the Apt? Hrm...
Stream thinking...I need to get a different phone at some point...at least with a new job, I can afford it.
And the question comes up...Unemployment goes off of how many jobs you try to get in a week, that type of thing..if I've got a "sure thing", then how do I acount for that? The only thing I can think of is to just keep applying, interviewing, right up until I start the new job...still, that seems a little..shady. Feh.
And, have found something new to go see...I need (correction, want) to go see Chess. Just got to listen to the soundtrack today...and am enjoying it. Only problem with that is that it makes me miss theatre quite a bit.
Of course, the doubt hits in, about whether Psychology is the right spot for me...I think I've said before, things would be much easier with a Magic 8 ball...shake it, ask it about current events, and then go with the respond...of course, that wouldn't be good either.
So, tomorrow is moving a desk to my sister's place, and then going to the Wild Mercy concert...Sunday? Likely a veg day at this point..am amazingly tired.
So, did something a little goofy tonite...for Thanksgiving, Dad was going through their pantry, and realized he had two things he didn't need...a bottle of Crown Royal (which I'd never tried til tonite), and a bottle of Nassau Royale, which as several people know, si one of my favorite liquors in the world. Well, did a shot and a half of Crown...and realize that, with weight loss and other factors, I'm apparently much more hte lightweight when it comes to drinking anymore.
Now, make no mistake, this isn't like the drinking I've done at InCon on any given year (except Mine), but, I weighed a bit more at that point. So, I'm fionding, once again, that Liquor affects me a little more now. thoughts are streaming together, and I'm no longer caring to correct some of the mistakes I'm making in writing.
Yes, what happens when a stream of conscious writer drinks? Well, you get something like this...normal post, but a bit more scattered. Of course, that's probably part of the reason why I did the shots tonite..it's a Friday, I've got nowhere to be in the morning, and it wasmore curiousity than anything else. :-P
Stream Shift: So, if I were to even vaguely consider moving...what are some of YOUR favorite towns? I've debated Toronto, North Carolina, Texas, and others...so, if you could move to your dream place, where would it be?
Seriously, I'd have a damned hard time thinking of moving anywhere...my friends/family are here..most of what I've made for myself is here. Of course with growing disillusionment with some of my extra-curricular activites, that makes the thought a little easier...but the friends/family thing makes it a LOT harder to consider moving. Of course, the job thing will make it just as hard. I MUST not let myself fall into the trap I did with the former place...growing too comfortable...believing, that whole thing.
Change, any, such as the job, or school, or any of that, is scary as fuck. And as one never knows where the rollercoaster stops, it's good to consider any/all options.
Anyways..that's about it for updating tonite. Head is growing heavy (Huh, go figure...busy/eventful week), so I should wrap up.
Have a good weekend. :-) No idea when I'll update next, but hopefully, I'll at least have a review of the Wild Mercy show tomorrow night...er, Sunday Early morning, since the show goes from 9:00 to Midnght.
Try to have fun this weekend? I know that's my attempt.

>> how to do school and work at the same time,
Well, come to work with me. I don't help run the place anymore so it's not as much fun, but lots of people work there and go to school too since it's night and pays well.
>>nd the question comes up...Unemployment goes off of how many jobs you try to get in a week, that type of thing..if I've got a "sure thing", then how do I acount for that? The only thing I can think of is to just keep applying, interviewing, right up until I start the new job...still, that seems a little..shady. Feh.
Shady dealings with unemployment?! Well, lemme tell you, dearie, that you're the first person I know who's not tried to be shady with employment. Heck, most people don't even bother to actually apply for jobs. They fill out a little for using names of businesses from the phone book or the want ads without ever contact them. If you have a sure thing, count it when you get it. Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
>>Only problem with that is that it makes me miss theatre quite a bit.
Look into theatre on the square and the independant production companies around here. I work with a guy to ones one and they're doing a production at TOTS's second stage in December....they did a shakespeare production this summer and they're bound to do more. Plus one of the ladies I work with is a director and works in a lot of productions....she also has a friend in independant producing.... they're definitely accessible
>>what are some of YOUR favorite towns?
well there's chicago.... i'd like to explore the states (europe too) much more, and i have a big list. but because of the babe we really will be moving in a few years. where though is still to be determined. i'm voting someplace warm!
>>..my friends/family are here..
yeah well now that we've had this child, family is growing as an impetus to move as contrary as it sounds.

Date: 2005-11-26 01:14 pm (UTC)what shift?
What about uncle's apt?
There are core classes that everbody has to take. Don't worry about if pschology is what you want to do. Plenty of time to decide that after you take some classes. You can do it!

Date: 2005-11-26 04:51 pm (UTC)I'm considering it, but suck on those type of phone calls. Believe me, I tried it at ABG, and found out that I'm not very good at it. Will consider, but if it's something my brain isn't comfortable with, I won't force myself into it, to the detriment of all. No matter how fun it'd be to work with you. :-)
Shady...well, I try to be honest. And, though I dislike the whole UE gig, I feel I should at least be honest with it.
TOTS...haven't thought of that in a year or so...must give more thought, when brain is actually capable of more than it is now. Too many things going on. Feh.
*heh* Moving someplace warm...well, I can tell ya that Brownsville, Texas is definitely warm. Then again, I'd kinda miss the rain, snow, and other such that can happen at any given moment here.
Given your family, that doesn't sound contrary at all. Remember, I've been around for some of the chaos, justnot the stuff that's gong insane now.
Thanks.

Date: 2005-11-26 04:53 pm (UTC)Hmmm...ya know, right now, the assumption (from what I'd talked to the guy about) was First...must verify.
No word on that, haven't gotten to talk to him..of course, if I"m employed, I could in theory stay here.
I know I can, I'm just starting to get that "I'm going to actually be in school, so I REALLY should come up with a plan" vibe...it'll all work out, most things do.
