hi.

i'm not dead. yet.

quick recap of the past month, in case anyone cares:

1. got a job, finally. i am a barista at my favorite coffeeshop in town, and in some circles, that instantly gives me hipster cred. good thing i don't give a shit about being hip, eh? but seriously, though, i love it. it's hard work, hot, exhausting, repetetive, etc., but it feels good to be doing something useful. plus, the tips aren't bad, either. i also got a good workstudy position, so yay for that. here's to paying off a monster credit card bill.

2. went on a week-long road trip of doom with the girl villain and had a blast, all things considered. there was plague bacteria, bad coffee, mummy people, not nearly enough sleep, and various other problems, but we got to see the cure [!!!!] and met melissa auf der maur, who is super rad, and i got to go to quimby's and see my zines on their shelves [totally surreal], and a bunch of other things as well.

3. back in school. some classes are great; others are not. i'm already kicking myself for sticking with sanskrit.

4. OH THE DRAMA. it never ends here, never. and if i sound like i'm being intentionally vague, it's 'cause i am.

5. we have another kitty. he's seventeen shades of adorable. gush.

tired now.
