Wow It's been a few weeks.

I knew I had been neglecting my blog, but for good reason. I've got some secrets I'm not ready to publish, for fear of public backlash...lol. Anyways, things are at a standstill, as usual. Since the state is cutting back on hiring, or freezing hiring, or whatever it is...Looks like ill be spending the holiday season and however far beyond working retail. I thought I was past this...ugh.

On a more positive, yet more expensive note, I was checking out grad schools in SC. Clemson's school counseling program looks pretty promising. Letters of recommendation might be the most difficult part of the application....I didn't spend my college years bonding with my professors. Yes, its more loans, but I have been checking out things in my field, and It's looking like a master's will take me where I want to go. I do feel like I could make a big difference already, but unfortunately I don't have the appropriate piece of paper. Speaking of that piece of paper...Binghamton sent out a batch of degrees that were missing the word "York" on the end of New York. You'd think with all those high and mighty signatures, and all those monkeys in offices who have jobs that IIII could be doing, somebody would have caught that half of the state's name was missing...guess not. They blamed it on their new "printing program"...sure....Although it makes me feel smarter than the average bear, or "monkey," it does kind of anger me that more jobs aren't available. I understand the whole country is in crisis, but geez. I'm better than Target. I went back to college so that I could get OUT of target. So yeah, once I do get a job, I'd liek to go back to grad school. I never thought it'd be for me, I was convinced that I'd stop at a bachelors..but these days having a bachelors seems obselete. Sad....

My brother and I are the first kids in our family to have degrees, I think. I guess there's Jason and Sarah that went to college but honestly I don't give a shit about cousins I never knew and wouldn't know if i "hit them with my car."


He moved out again. Take me with you.


Autumn is impresing me here...not as colorful as I'm used to, but beautiful nonetheless. Im welcoming hoodie weather with open arms. For some reason though, autumn brings back floods and floods of memories, kind of like an entire season of de ja vus. but for stuff that really did happen. Fall has always been my favorite. Kind of chilly, but when that sun peeks out, its the perfect feeling of warmth. Colorful in a natural and subtle way, but beautiful nonetheless...fall is ME in a season.

Today is a great day to take the vette out....too bad I can't drive standard lol.


signing off for now, gonna go run with Allie....

You cracked me up with the missing york.

Hey at least there's target. I suppose you're lucky to be able to work so close to home while you keep looking for another job.

Does this mean mom's giving you a little breathing room??
