Is She Weird
Yes. Definitely.
Still no job. Not really very many prospects either.In the mean time I am spending a hell of lot of time at the gym. 10.4 pounds so far worth of time at the gym in the past month. (that *cough* holiday or two fucked me up a little bit) Anyway.
Lets see.. new years eve. It was fun. I went out completely alone, knowing me and always seeming to find someone to chat too while out drinking. (well most of the time anyway)First bar I sat had 2 beers and read the newspaper. It was quite poetic at one point. I was completly at bliss for a little bit while sipping on a find local ipa and reading the funnies. It was perfect. I was content. Sure an order of deep fried pickles would of completly made it UBER perfect.. But I was genuinely happy. But New years eve isnt for sitting around. So away I went in the chilly weather.
I went to the Lock & Keel next. Sat ordered a beer. As I just was about to leave to go get my fleece (oh btw I was in one of my Little Black Dresses) to put under my coat. But this couple came in and told me to stay and talk to them. The guy twisted my arm with another Sierra Nevada Celebration to stay. Well ok... if you insist. So we sat and chatted. He hten bought his wife and me shots. OK dokey. Then they were like lets go to another bar. Ooff we went. THe husband person Erik? I think his name was bought me yet another beer. And we wandered looking for a place to sit. Somehow we met up with this table of people playing an odd card game. I dont know. But I felt like it was time for me to mosey.
I wandered back to the first bar I started at. I met an old friend there and we sat and chatted a while. 1 more beer, I bought that one, a german style dark ale of some sort. Very tasty, I always get that one on german night at that pub cause they are only 2.75 for german beers on wednesday. WOO!
I said good by and just as I was walking past this other bar.. I spotted another friend. Since it was now pouring and freezing (and I never got my fleece I popped inside). I had since then stopped drinking for the evening. But then someone tapps me on the shoulder and said there is a platter of wings for everyone. DING DING DING ! ! ! More magical words have never been said. I rush over and there is this huge restaurant sized bin? tub? dish?? of wings. THere had to be like 200+ chicken wings in this thing. OH MY! I ate... and I ate.. And it was beautiful cause there were like 10 people surrounding this troth of wings people eating each others wings, crossing arms and eating wings, finger licking. The works. It was wing heaven. And it was beautiful. I then took a small bowl of (more) wings and began walking home. Giggling the whole way.
In other news... I'm getting broke. I'm not going out anymore. This week will be the first week in a while I wont go to either the hash happy hour or the hashes on the weekend.(I skipped the hashes last weekend as well). Its just not in the budget. I've got plenty of food here. I'm stocked! Which is good.
Making adjustments to other things as I can.
I kissed a guy at the bar last friday. He is/was (hmm grammar?) black. I had never kissed a black guy before. Not sure why really. He said he was going to call me and that i was cool and different. (aint that the truth, the different part anyway) He was going to take me out to go listen to some jazz. He never called. I'm not heart broken.
Lets see. Gosh I have a lot to say today.
I cried my eyes out earlier today in a complete state of hopelessness. I'm tired of being unemployed, broke, without anythng fun to do out with friends. I'm tired of being single. But I know that I'm working on all those problems. So I know as long as I keep working at finding solutions the answer cant be too far. I hope.
And finally this evening. I spent around an hour in the pouring rain clearing storm drains around my neighborhood. I was armed with a small stick and a chopstick and I cleared..countless drains of leaves so the drains could.. drain. What a concept! I got SOAKED. They are closing i-5 thats how much rain we are getting. Oh.. yea.. I was a block from getting back to my apartment when I remembered. I own rain pants.
