I think i found a place, i have to go look at it tomorrow. It’s very close to where i work which is GREAT. Things are coming together but now i am starting to flip out about money. I need a deposit for this and deposit for that.. and i guess i didnt factor that in. If i was in the same province i might not have to pay these but where i will now reside in a different province it’s sort of like starting over.

So i am hoping my mommy will be a good mother and lend me some money..

it always comes back to money

I went and took my IQ test and computer literacy tests today. Things didnt go smoothly with the computer literacy tests as something was wrong with their system but i managed to finish it.

Apparently my test scores were good enough because they offered me the job about 2 hours after i got back here. I start training May 5th.

Finding a job hasnt been difficult but finding a new home has been. You’d think it would be the other way but not so. So now i need to find a place to live soon..

I have sent out half a dozen resumes this week. I’ve had two interviews and looked at an apartment. It’s exciting and scary all at the same time.

One Job interview was in the city the other is here in the same town as my sister. Both offer varying advantage to them. One is in my field and one is at a call center. I’ve never worked in a call center but frankly that is appealing to me based on money and it includes no ass wiping. I have a second part test tomorrow that i have to take. I feel like i am in school all over again where if i dont do well i wont pass. I’ll also need to call some apartments locally to see what they have.

Staying with Amanda is going well but she’s been working a lot so it’s a bit boring during the day but I get by. We get along well which sometimes surprises me because she was a monster of a child. (: Lucas comes home this week permanently so I am looking to either find my own space or back to Nova Scotia soon so i am not in their way.

That’s all i have for now. Maybe i should be playing the lottery so i can retire… job hunting = gah.

It’s been an interesting weekend. Friday Amanda and i went to the liquor store around 3ish and started drinking. We stopped for dinner and started later in preparation for her birthday night out. A bunch of girls came over and we got our drink on before heading out to the bar around 11:30pm. Her friends that i have recently met all seem pretty cool. I’m quite fond of her neighbor and a couple of her other friends that i already knew.

Once out we all had loads of fun and alcohol. It was my first experience at a military bar and i am not sure i thought it would be that way.. *shrug*… At closing time her neighbor called her husband as he was to pick us up. I had my hand slammed in the van door and i’m shocked it’s not broke or even sore. I’m convinced my ring saved my wee fingers. .. it was some serious fucked up but lucas-pucas managed to bend it back to somewhat normal shape - GO HIM!

Once back here it was over to neighbor’s house for dip and BBQed hot dogs. I must say i have never had hot dogs at 2:30 am drunk-off-my-ass. They were good though. Home by 3 and in bed very soon after.

Wide awake at 8 am but forced myself to stay in bed until 10am. Felt pretty good considering i consumed roughly 10 beer the night before. Went through the mcdonalds drive-thru and visited with neighbor before i headed up stairs around 1:30 for a nap.. which fixed me right up! That night i got my laptop and hid out in my make-shift room while the sister, lucas and his friend watched UFC - not my thing.. *DONT READ THIS AMANDA ** I’m not a judgmental person but i dont think there is a more gay sport. If there was penetration and i am not totally sure there isnt it would be more homo than they gayest porn ever. I retired around 1:3am after reaching the end of the internet.

Today i got up feeling like i might have been part of the UFC fight. I could have been dreaming i was wrestling bears, too… Anyway my day was spent doing not much - i just kinda feel blah today and i have been on the verge of being teary several times. It’s probably a combination of a few things.. but it’ll pass i am sure.

Amanda got into the home made wine today and i passed up that opportunity … which is probably a good thing. So here i sit sober while she snores away. I’ll probably watch some more teevee then retire for the evening.. hoping tomorrow feels brighter
