So it was pointed out to me that I haven't updated or posted or anything in a while.
So here's an updatey type thing.
No, I still don't have a job. Thanks to certain "schools" who care more about the quantity than the quality of their graduates, virtually every medical employer in the known universe is under the impression that all new MAs are retards who can't tell the difference between a stethoscope and a rhinocerous' asshole. Makes it hard to even get an interview, much less a job offer. I'm still applying away though. I don't have much choice. I have to apply for at least 3 jobs a week to keep getting my unemployment.
I'm still living alone and enjoying it. I don't have to clean up after anyone but me and HIS ROYAL MAJESTY the cat. I can eat what I want, my leftovers don't magically disappear, and nobody hounds me about my drinking. Oh, and I can have "visitors" * winkwinknudgenudge* whenever I want. Which isn't as often as I really want, but whatever.
And in the meantime I'm going apeshit not working, not knowing when, or even if, I'm going to be able to support myself again or pay my student loans or even live above the fucking poverty line.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world...

Jun. 24th, 2010 08:47 pmHave I ever mentioned how very very much I hate moving?
And how very very much it sucks to have done so, and to no longer have access to my dad's oxycodone?
Because right now my back and knees are made of throb and ouch and OHGODWHY.
And I'm coated in a lovely slime from having sweated to almost the point of dehydration pretty much constantly throughout the day.
I should probably go take a shower and get so very very drunk. And take about double the amount of naproxen I usually do.
But at least I'm now in my new place. My bed is set up and made (and it's calling me as we speak), my TV and DVD player are set up (albeit in the living room since there's no room in my bedroom for it, which means no more sleeping to the TV...that's going to take some serious readjustment), and I have my computer stuff all set up. Tomorrow the real fun begins. Unpacking. OH JOY! :\
Have I mentioned ouch and hurt and pain and shoot me yet?

May. 16th, 2010 06:14 pmAfter spending roughly 4 hours mowing the lawn, my back and knees were howling with pain. The ground here is very uneven, and in some places pretty soft and moist (especially by the septic tank where the drain field is essentially saturated...yummeh), and the grass is pretty thick, so it takes quite a bit of effort to manhandle a lawnmower through it all. So, to take the edge off the pain I snaked 10mg of my dad's oxycodone.
Whoa.
I've been bobbing along in a low geosynchronous orbit for the last couple of hours.
Note to self: 5mg is probably more than sufficient.
In other news, my student loan funds came through. I've contacted several apartment complexes around the area, and actually heard back from a few even though I pointed out in my initial contact email that I'm an unemployed student. We shall see what happens.
Looks like I got the lawn mowed just in time. Here comes the rain again, falling on my head like a memory, tearing me apart like a new emotion.
Aint opiates fun?
