I work in a pharmacy.

Today I went back to fill out the paperwork for my new job. I guess I passed that drug test, after all! I would be lying if I said I were excited about being a cashier again, but you do what you have to do to pay the bills. If my rent were $100 cheaper, I wouldn't need this job, but it's not, and I do. I might as well make the best of it.
Those Damn Gibberish Questions...

Lindsay came over tonight and we all played Apples to Apples and drank some wine and Mike's hard lemonade. Then I got everyone to play You Don't Know Jack. It was difficult, because everyone in the group, (excluding Amanda, including myself), likes to talk non-stop and so we missed lots of Cookie's instructions and jokes. Then I showed Nick and Lindsay funny exam answers and overheard at the office and then we went through the quotes page archives and got nostalgic. All in all, a good night. Five minutes ago, I was not tired, but now... I am a little sleepy. It is probably the cat's fault.

Every time you feel like crying, I'm going to try to make you laugh

"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward."
-- Kurt Vonnegut
I have a job interview for tomorrow. It's retail, part-time, very nearby. Hopefully it will go well and provide me some steady income.

Flatland Excursion
Sunday, June 15, 2008 @ 12:02 PM
The trip to Illinois was not so bad. My mom and I listened to a book on tape version of Pride and Prejudice that I got from the Beacon library. Saturday night was awesome because I got to party with Michelle, Dan, Seth, Steve, Bret and Kathy. We played Euchre. We as a group beat Super Mario Brothers III. I got drunk. It was fantastic. I spent as much time as I could with Dan and Michelle on the trip. I also saw my selfish, egotistical, ungrateful brother, and he pushed my buttons until I wanted to tear my hair out. (It took about 20 minutes.)
The trip home was all right. I drove through almost all of Indiana and a good chunk of Ohio. I hung out all week in Binghamton at mom's house and then she drove me back to Beacon on Saturday. It was like, "Hey, mom, remember how we just drove a thousand miles? Want to drive 200 more? Please please?" But she brought me important things that I couldn't have taken with me on the bus. Like my TV.
After we unloaded my stuff, we went mattress-shopping. I got a really nice full-size bed and it was delivered this morning. You know what you shouldn't shop for when you're tired? Mattresses. They keep having you lie down to test them out, and all you want to do is go to sleep because you're so comfortable - but you can't. It's torture. But now I have a mattress. It's sweet.

Regarding Employment

OK... now I'm really freaking out...
I think I'm going to read "Overqualified" for a few hours.

The New Place
The house is nice. We live in half a vertical-split duplex. On the first floor, there's a big living room, a large dining room, and a big-ass kitchen. The second floor has three bedrooms. Most of the house has pretty good-looking hardwood floors. My room has some dingy old tile, but it has two windows and its own ceiling fan. I'm pretty happy with it. I'll be happier when I have a job.
One good thing is that there are a couple of unsecured wifi connections nearby. They're pretty unreliable, but still better than no Internet at all.
