Shooting



This was my first time ever shooting a handgun.

I've gotten better.

You should stay out of my house.

New Step in Life

Well, I put in my two week notice today...

"Do you have a job lined up?" No.

"Isn't that a bad idea?" Er, well... it depends on who you are, your particular situation, and what you want out of life.

I have no guaranteed plan in place... But I have plans, if that makes it better?

I'll get three more paychecks between now and when... well, when I don't.

I'm going to minimize my spending, bills, etc.

Place more focus on finishing my final classes on high notes.

I'm going to put quite a bit of effort (almost job like) toward selling (eBay, Craigslist, Etsy, classifieds, ...) as much of my stuff as I can - a) to make money b) I need to get rid of a lot of junk (aka valuable possessions to someone else) and c) so I have less to move in a couple months.

Going to try working through what I want to be when I grow up. Or maybe more of how I want to earn a living between now and growing up. I've decided that I definitely want to enjoy what I do. I've known that, but I'm realizing how important I think it is in my life. I'm not sure what that means for me yet, but I'd rather live a life where I need less money than needing to play corporate politics to make what I need for how I live. I suppose that's nearly as much mindset as occupation, but none-the-less, I want to do work that I want to do.

I'll spend some time wedding planning.
And as soon as we know where we're going (or not going), I'll start doing what is necessary for us to go in that direction.

So, no, I don't have a "job" lined up, but I do have some life lined up that needs to be worked on.  And anyway, I'm just getting a 7 week, or so, jump on my already impending unemployment, upcoming with graduation.

New step; next step; life's a journey...

Facebook silence for a while...

Yay!

It actually is possible to turn off Facebook status comments. I finally figure out how.
For anyone else curious:

Account > Privacy Settings > Customize Settings > Things others share > Can comment on posts > Only me

It's lockdown time...

Driving Pet Peeves

1 Individuals who consistently drive under the speed limit

2 Individuals who feel as though I should yield to their desire to go over the speed limit

3 Individuals with a handicap tag who drive/park as though their disability gives them a right to drive/park as they please

4 Individuals who slow all the way down in order to turn

Alongside the more obvious things such as not using turn signals, cutting me off, ridding my bumper, speeding around me only to get in front and slow down, you know, things that violate common sense...

Night Musings

The Beast believes there are, other, smaller beasts residing under the dishwasher. I can hear her from upstairs; threatening to tear my kitchen to pieces.

I've been in bed since before 11. I was so looking forward to the possibility of nearly 8 hours of sleep. I should have known better than to think I could fall asleep quickly. The pattern continues, as has been. I lay awake tortured by the never-ending everything and nothingness that is my brain. I desperately need more sleep than I have been managing.

Blogging on mobile, even via speech, is becoming much too labor intensive for this hour. I shall attempt sleep yet again.
