Twitter, Invader,Birthday approaching...or what has been around me lately.

So, yea I recently joined Twitter-damn you  Ashton Kutcher! I found of all people on there(are you ready for this?) Brent Spiner, Wil Wheaton, Levar Burton(Star trek geek heaven!!)-Dita Von Teese(my burlesque inspiration), Neil Gaiman(always loved his work)- amongst a few others. I don't update it ALL the time(like I have that much free time on my hands!)-but it is nice to read the daily goings on about my fav celebs.

I recently auditioned for a local show called 'Invader I hardly know her', I felt I did well at the audition-but I didn't make the cut. Oh well! 

Oh yea did I mention I am 20 days from turning 29? One more year until I am in the 30 and over club. Jay and I are going to do a joint Bday/gradution party on the 22nd. He leaves for Europe for two weeks on May 26th, and while I am sad we will be apart that long-he has earned it for working his butt off. He will likely be applying for grad school this summer,and working towards taking his GRE test.

As for me, the month of May will be mostly working aside from Birthday and Memorial Day weekend where I am taking off five days.  I will need to get as much time with Jay as I can.

Mom was in the hospital again for drinking this week, I have nothing to say on the subject other then -"again?'

I want to move. I cannot afford this apartment anymore.

And I keep looking for the ever elusive second job-I am likely to get Swine Flu before I get a new job.

This week in whatevers...

I am in a weird place now, not totally unhappy-not completely happy..kinda in a weird ok space. I don't know if that is life and things being ok. And not being able to change the fact that i have no money, I am late on my electric bill and my rent this month, it is what it is.

-This weekend looks beautiful weather wise (72 degrees, maybe close to 80?), my good freind Steve is coming into town for the 'Big Game' which basically means just the boys doing what they do best in playing Warhammer 40K-Jay will be playing his Orks. He has been working on them religiously these past few weeks. Should be a good game. We all will be meeting up at Mad Planet for 80's/retro nite on Friday to get our boogie on.

-Oh Yea-did I mention I am the subject of a most interesting photo?

More on that later.

The burlesque show went great, we raised 2,000 dollars for juvenile diabetes.

It felt good to give my time and energies to charity.

Ciao for now.

It's a Good Day...

-Overdraft is paid off

-We raised 2,000 dollars at the Burlesque benefit for juvenile diabetes.

-I am so in love with my guy right now.

Life is getting better again.

FUCK!!

My overdraft keeps growing!

This coming pay will barely cover anything, I am hoping that the direct deposit advance I can still use, or I am screwed out of money for another two weeks.

(SIGH).

Other then that life is ok!

Work today and tomorrow, Show Saturday...yea!

My overdraft is finally paid off WOO!!

Goodbye Dead Man's...

So this week I will bidding adieu to the group I have been with for two years. 

I am looking foward to moving ahead with the Alleycat Revue, first show this Saturday. It is a benefit show for Juvenile Diabetes, which will be a wonderful cause to raise money for.

Outside of the shimmy-tastic world, life sucks right now.  I have been in a funk for a couple of days, just feeling depressed about life in general. I apply for job after job, with no bites or contacts.

I don't want to quit what I have now, I just passed the one-year milestone at work...so one year ain't too bad.

Speaking of one year, it has also been one year for Jay and I. We didn't make a big deal of it, but made a cheers that we made it through one year. Jay is going to be so busy in the next two months. 

He is graduating in May-we are celebrating a joint my bday/him graduating party- and then he is off to Europe for two weeks...I keep thinking about how hard it will be for us to be apart that long. We may not see each other for a week, but we are always in the same town. He will be in Germany for a week, then Paris France for the second week.  I will miss him SOO much!

But I know this is a great time for him to have some time away from all of the insanity of his life, between Djing, singing, and other stuff...he is definetely pulled in a million directions.

I am proud of him for finishing school, and he will be going to grad school in the fall. 

Easter is going to be low-key this year...spending the evening with margie and her fiance ed-and their families.

I hope for things to get better soon.

Weekend Ahead...

I am mad that I hardly got any sleep this morning...I was trying everything under the moon to fall asleep.  Finally at 4am I made some peppermint tea which calmed me and made me sleep.

I managed to wake up around 9am, then I said f-it and decided to stay up. I made some coffee and some Pilsbury Cinnamon Rolls; because dammit I deserve some gooey fatty goodness once in awhile.

The walk to work was hard, my blood sugars were getting really low, but I had some pizza and a coke when I got to work, andI felt better.

Tonight-pack for my overnite visit, Jay is coming over to hang out, then try to get some sleep before I catch my 1030am train. I am very much in need of a mini vacation.

And I cannot wait to see my family.

I am proud to annouce..

that I have been made a member of the Alleycat Revue!!

YEA!!

First show with them on the 18th, last show with Dead Man's Carnival on the 11th.

Alot of stuff to do now!

I am going to a pre-interview session at the Neroli Salon and Spa tomorrow morning, they are hiring retail advisors at 10 dollars an hour. So I am hopeful for something better.
