FIRST AND FOREMOST.......I HAVE INTERNET!!!! That's right...you heard me...I....HAVE....INTERNET!! After a month of going without, my boyfriend and I finally conceeded and ordered an internet package from the service "Clear." The bill is pretty low, the service is efficient, and most importantly.....I can reclaim socializing with my interwebs peoples and interview for jobs once more!!! I had really gotten exceptionally tired of drudging my little cold butt down to our apartment office only to be even more frozen in that ice-box they call a computer center. HARUMPH!! Not to mention, some of the folks that shared the small, public computer space with me were sometimes rather...er...distracting. I almost gave Mr. Fed-Ex Delivery dude a huge peck on the cheek for delivering me sweet FREEDOM in the form of a USB : )
(I was almost as excited, upon opening my internet package, as the kid seen below. I repeat....ALMOST)
SECONDLY............my body is completley and totally defying me these days. I mean seriously! Its as if God accidentally gave me the head of a 23 year old and the body of an EIGHTY-THREE year old. They say the almighty one dosn't make mistakes.....so I'm thinking he's more of a practical jokes man. It's gotten to the point where, when incurring a minor ache, I immediatley want to warn my friends of impending dooms-day weather. THAT bad! I'm seriously not complaining here. On the contrary, its sometimes hilarious to just dictate how horrid my body luck actually is.
The first case in point to defend the aformentioned argument is that my hair....is going pretty grey. They say a woman's hair is her crown, but if that's so...my crown is pretty friggin rusted. I'm guessing my new hair-dont has something to do with my completley INSANE stress levels seeing as I've been greying since the tender age of 18. In only one, eensie years time, I'm going to have to start dying my "crown" frequently. Hellooooo salon costs! Luckily, I'm already on a first name basis with my stylist, Cheryl, at Hair Cuttery and she hooks me up everytime. If only the toll collectors here in Orlando were as friendly as my local cosmetologist...I could save myself the big bucks ; )
Also, I get these odd and mysterious illnesses that WILL NOT die! I don't know why my body betrays me so, but alas its true. First, last month, there was the annoying and ridiculous throaty cough which tickled the back of my throat CONSISTENTLY when speaking. Then, later on, I attained terrible heart pains. And lastly, operating as the cherry on my bacteria-covered sunday, this past month I've been having stomach issues.
Third of all, the job search is going. I would not say its going great....or that its going bad....its mostly just going. So far, I've had four interview offers....all of which are slightly off-base for me in some strange reason, i.e. commissions based jobs or weekend hours (eliminating ever visiting my family...in Tallahassee). I basically keep sending out resumes online, and physically. It gets tiring....but I know there are lots of people who have things FAR......FAR worse for them than I do, and I definitley count my blessings at having such a supportive family and boyfriend to help me when the chips are down.
Lastly, my anniversary with Jono is on Saturday. I can't believe we've already hit the four year mark. I am very proud ,regarding how far we have come ,within both ourselves, and our relationship over the past, few years.
Oh yeah..and I've also decided to do this thing wherein I share a song that I'm digging during the week on my blogsite. This week it's Keri Hilson "Pretty Girl Rock" Say what you want...but I'm exhausted about hearing negative messages regarding being a woman.
So that's it......expect plenty more blogs from me now that I have the interwebs again : )
