What else is a girl in my position to do?

Hiya, kids. How are things? Things here are tired. What else is new?

Today was my first day at Noodles. The job is easy and I will be workin with Sam based on our school schedules. The people are cool too. My gm is a badass. I really like him a lot. I just don't know if I can handle school +NSSLHA, Topcats, Zoo and Forever 21 too. Something is going to have to go. Most likely Forever or Noodles or both. I love TC too much to give it up. And I really suspect the zoo will be pretty fun.


So maybe it's just being so busy but for some reason I've just feeling really bummed and lonely. And I am totally not that girl that can't not be in a relationship (I typically prefer to not be) but at this point I feel like I'd deal with an asshole boyfriend just to have some damn company from time to time. Chris is never home anymore either so I don't even have the occasional dinners/movies/hangout in the living room time we used to have. Plus, I'd typically see JD about once a week and now that he's auditioning for schools all over the US he's also uber busy. It seems weird that the two of us still hang out so often and get along so well considering we dated (twice!) and broke up (twice!). Still, he gets me so why bother trying to find someone new who has to learn me when I can have one who is already in the know? Plus, kid is one of very few people who speaks my dialect fluently.... (i.e. he uses "redick" in sentences and knows what "tri-sockin'" means). He also shares my love for Arrested Development and is quickly developing a love for Scrubs. At least we got to talk for a few minutes today and catch up. We planned a "date" for next week. We call them play dates cause we're really grown up like that. These play dates typically include beers and DVDS and making fun of one another. Today he even recommended music that I had actually downloaded yesterday. Like I said, he knows me. I do get to see my CSD girls pretty frequently and for that I am really greatful. I am also super greatful I had that trip to Chicago with them. I love me some NSSLHA drunkenness in Chicago. Jilbert and I had lunch dates a lot and I really love that. She's a baller.

I haven't gotten to hang out with Lauren or have a real conversation with her in a long time. That really bums me out.


So I guess this is kind of a lame and gloomy post but that's how I am feeling today. Tomorrow is my offical paperwork/scheduling meeting at the Zoo shops! YAY! This may seem like a dumb thing to get excited about but I miss having a routine job that I enjoy. After paperwork, I work at forever. Then, Topcats. Whew. BUT! Topcats is hosting "Robot Rock!" which is sponsored by DAAP. This means indie bands and art boys with tattoos and flannel shirts. This may solve my lonliness issues....
