Eluvian Wave Crashes

So I start work tomorrow! eep!  I'm still unsure how I feel about this.  This job isn't exactly exciting and all film-y -- not even close -- but at least I'll have finally moved out of my parents house and be a contributing member of society paying my bills and so forth.  And I'm in Ottawa.  Thank gods.

Perhaps I'm just a little nervous.  But I don't feel nervous, at least the usual nervous.  What a big step.

Man,  I just realised that I'm talking like someone who's never done anything.  Which so isn't true.  At present this will be my 23rd job I've held in my life (not because I get fired a lot :P I've just had a lot growing up, real jobs) and I've only be in my parents house four months post-MA degree.  And I lived overseas for a year.  And I travelled solo while there.  So I know I can do this.  Why the weird trepidation?

Perhaps, I'm just assuming there is an uneasiness because there really isn't any and I subconsciously think its weird.

That must be it. 

 I'm in love with this song.  I'm aware that it appears everywhere.  I don't care.  It's beautiful.


 
So we have an apartment!! We don't move in until May 1st but at least we have something!  I'm really excited!!  It should be fun to live with Turkey man.  We've only see each other in person once in the last 4 and a half years (a short weekend trip to Chicago) but I think we have compatible personalities.  It should be a good time!  Perhaps it'll get him to open up more.  That guy needs a girlfriend or something.  We'll find him one or at least get him to meet some girls :P

In the meantime I'm bunking with Tracy for 6 weeks which seems like a huge headache in 400sq feet but I'm kind of looking forward to it.  It'll be fun! We'll get to bond! We've never gotten to live together and at this rate we'll probably never will so it'll be fun to have this closeness even if its just for a bit.  Either that or we'll each go into homicidal rages.  Either way, it'll be something different for us! :P


    

Soooooo apartment hunting long distance is just never a good idea.  But I think I'm making some headway.  I have a place finally on hold for now (until I send the deposit tomorrow) and I'm still waiting for another place to get back to me.  Thankfully Ronnie is pretty easy going about the whole thing so all of my 'executive decisions' already have approval :P

This has made packing go more slowly than I would like but its coming along.  I finally got around to shredding all of my 'financial documents' for the past 7 years which was a huge thing off my mind.  That stuff has just been sitting in a box wasting away.


I can't believe Brett Favre retired.  I thought for sure he would do one more year but nonetheless I'm glad his last season was fantastic and I'm happy that I got to see him play at Lambeau Field just once.  It was fantastic.  Good luck Brett!!

There was some other stuff I was going to post, but alas, I have forgotten in all this mess.

Officially on Lj.

I'll eventually get the hang of it.

And I'll eventually have something to say.
