what's up (TMI Tuesday)
9 years ago
General
I know it's not Tuesday for another hour (at least here) but by the time most of you read this it probably will be so ask me some questions!
sorry I don't post much anymore, I have adult responsibilities and stuff now so it's getting harder to find the time. i've been applying around to internships and so far no luck - hopefully I'll be able to find one for the Fall but i'm hesitantly accepting the fact that I may have to delay it to Spring. I'm stuck here in Clarksville for a whole year either way so I guess it's not bothering me that badly, but still, I'm anxious to get into a nice career that I can enjoy. And Clarksville's not bad; It's more than double the size of my hometown in AL so it's got some neat places to check out, but beyond that everything seems pretty standard, lots of chain businesses and not much else. Still, there's a lot of chain businesses that I've never lived close to (like Steak N Shake and Hot Topic) that I now live really close to, so hey it's something (and my 3am hungries aren't limited to ONLY Waffle House anymore lmao - Waffle house was literally the only thing open 24 hours in my hometown except for one McDonald's, but that McDonald's often just like didn't serve people after midnight anyway even though they had signs posted saying they were open 24 hours???)
anyway i'm still working at monsterfrikkin ruby tuesday and it's pretty awful but at least they pay me $10/hr here in Tennessee (I was only making 8 in AL). Still not enough to cover all the bills but things are looking hopeful, there seems to be plenty of opportunities around here.
fave thing is being within driving distance of Nashville. y'know it's not like a perfect city (I'd adore living somewhere with a good rail network but outside of New York where living costs you an arm and a leg and the soul of your firstborn child I don't think that's a thing in the US) but i could see myself living there for a very long time, maybe the rest of my life (but i could also see myself living in other cities too like Chicago or something). it's a great city and i like going to it and hopefully we'll live there in a year or two.
i would love to tell you all how many pokeymans i've kidnapped but alas my telephone does not possess the capability to abduct said poking mans. hopefully gettin a new one soonish though.
anyway how's life. ask me questions. you're all looking lovely today. nice shirt. cool hair.
