ALSO i got my job back at gamestop \o/ i mean only temporarily until i go back to the burque, but it's my old gamestop at providence place :D the one i started at! zac and i started there together, and he's an ASM now, and steve, my old manager, was like hey you should work here for a while and i was like MOST EXCELLENT. i start probably next week, maybe a bit sooner, WHO KNOWS AND WHO CARES, MONEYS

also are any of you folks going to anime boston, especially xi_rpg folks? i am going there with zac and kait and some other folks but i would love to see any of you lovely people there. i will also be organizing an XI meetup at some point that weekend.

I AM GOING HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

oh my god yes i am so fucking happy

long story short, parents are paying rent for a bit because they would rather have me home for the holidays and i could use any excuse to get the fuck away from that place

i have no OMG MUST BE INDEPENDENT pride left, i miss my mommy and daddy okay

this will be the first time i get to spend the holidays with my family since 2007. i'm doing thanksgiving with nora's family because they are wonderful, and then going home for the holidays YAY

and even better, this time it's for more than a week! i am going to be home from december 15 through january 5. that is THREE WHOLE WEEKS GUYS oh my god i

i miss my family so much

;_;

and my friends in RI oh goddddd

/cries out of happiness

GUYS GUYS GUYS

my roommate took me practice driving in his standard for the first time tonight

i was really nervous cause driving terrifies me and i had some bad experiences learning when i was in RI

OH MY GOD IT WENT AWESOOOME

apparently i did really well for a first timer. i only stalled out two or three times and NOT on the first try :D i missed third gear the first time, but got it the second. shifting while driving still gives me some trouble but i pretty much am able to brake and get started (even if a little shakily) without stalling. i can turn pretty well too! i banked a couple of turns when i didn't slow down and ONCE i almost hit this streetlamp but to be fair, it was not lit and i didn't see it >>; i am awesome at avoiding potholes too. oh yeah. go me /o/

this makes me feel SO much better. learning to drive has always been a daunting and anxiety-inducing thing, but i feel a lot more confident about it. driving anywhere outside of a parking lot is still a scary thought, but matt is a good teacher :B so YAYYYY

also i bought platinum but i have not started it yet cause i want to breed my infernape first orz !! does anyone have a ditto they would like to trade to me via GTS? otherwise i'm just gonna end up action replay-ing it 8|;;; i just need a ditto but they are such a pain in the ass to get in DP aaaaarrrr

ALSO that epic pokemon fanfic? STILL TITLE-LESS BUT I AM WORKING ON IT aw yeah. i haven't gotten very far but sort of slow and steady ehhh

BUT OLIVER you cry WHAT ABOUT SUDDENLY SUTTON??

only like two of you care about it but i am just sort of taking a break from it for a bit. actually i'm still pretty into it, just haven't had the energy to write much lately, i'm sure once i get my mojo back i'll be working on both simultaneously. it's weird; i'm actually at a pretty good place exciting-action-things-coming-up-momentum-energy-wise in the story but every time i sit down to write it's like BLARRGGHH HOW ABOUT YOU SQUEEZE VERY THICK MUD OUT OF THESE TINY HOLES DESIGNED FOR WATER it's kinda tough so i'm waiting till i get my energy back.

my metaphors are vague and confusing

anyway YEAH for all you mega dorks like me who love pokemon THIS STORY WILL TOTES BE WRITTEN AWWWW YEAH i will be questioning those of you who live in states other than new mexico and rhode island for advice on gym things (hammie and i have AWESOME PLANS FOR MICHIGAN buahaha) but yeah

i also have some awesome designs for molly and andy (mostly molly -- man her dorky little sailor-inspired outfit is just the cutest thing ever fff) and when i feel less lazy i'll get to that

ALSO notNEWS: my boss at tilt is an asshole and hired a new employee without telling me OR michael first! after telling us for weeks that we were NOT HIRING new emloyees! way to go, jerkface! way to cut my hours almost IN HALF and make it practically impossible to pay my bills with a pay like that!

luckily i am like 80% sure i have the job at spencers after today. *CROSSES FINGERS* and don't worry, my peeps, i am in no danger of not being able to pay my bills this month. next month might be a little tight, but i let my parents know about my boss's asshattery.

OTHER THINGS: GOOD

YEAH ME

hi internet i've been kinda dead lately :'D

i'm incredibly busy and exhausted lately with work, school, a lot of things to work out in my personal life, also work work MORE WORK because michael apparently just doesn't care anymore about showing up which means i get called in and i have NO TIME ANYMORE auuuugh D< dammit michael you are my friend stop doing this to me

in case i never really mentioned it michael and i are pretty much the only employees at tilt besides the manager which means if michael's not working i pretty much have to :C

also the sewing machine my mom bought arrived this morning! THE BOX IS HUGE WOAH i hope i have room on my super cluttered sewing desk for it! i'll have to clean it up this week and then learn how to use it :D if anyone is wondering it is a SINGER CURVY and it has a billion stitches on it omgggg

my mom is awesome.

i really just wanted to post an entry to test out my new hodgins icon which is awesome lmfao I LOVE YOU JACK HODGINS<3

oooh i want to open up the box it is like a present on christmas morning except i am jewish
