Jeans and Sneakers

I slept until 5:30pm today.  :[  But in my defense, I stayed up late talking to a kid I haven't seen in almost three years, that I went to high school with.

Wyn wore her sweater to work today, and she said she got a compliment on it, and she loves it because it's so soft!  I just hope it's warm enough.  When I wore it I was still kind of cold, but I'm always cold, so whatever.

And now for the surprise!!!  Rob told the roomate he's got until May 1st to get out.  YAY!!!  They've both got to be gone.  And we have another kid Nick who's awesome who's going to move in.  *dances around*

Other than that, not much to report.  I didn't get an email back from the yarn place around the corner that's hiring, yet.  I only sent them my resume yesterday though, so we'll see.  I did get a call from some guy who I think is a staffing person.  That always happens when I go on monster or careerbuilder. . .cause then my profile updates and is at the top-ish of some list.

I also found another kid I went to high school with who used to sit behind me in math class.  He looks so different now and he's got a masters degree in psychology and he's thinking about going back to school so he can teach.  So crazy.  I'm way proud of him, being one of the few people around my age I know who have carried through with ANYTHING.  :]

First off, let me just say that it hurts to type this right now, because the middle and ring fingers on my right hand are totally spastic from bowling yesterday.  Now, as for an explanation of how I lied. . .well, I took pictures of my sister in the sweater, and it fits her beautifully, however, I’m not posting the pictures because they came out bad, and it’s not fair to post pictures that don’t show how good she looked in it.  And also, I forgot to bring my camera to the bowling alley, and so there will be no pictures of that either.

We had a good time though.  Wyn, Chi, and Bay all made it out here alright, but when we ordered chinese food for dinner, it took an hour and 20 minutes to get here. . .causing us to miss our reservation for lanes at the bowling alley and also to miss Stephen, whom I’d invited while waiting for Wyn’s train to pull in.  We did manage to get a lane though, and aside from some crazy people bowling around us, we had fun.  I bowled horribly though, and would like to do it more often so that when I go my shoulder/arm/wrist/hand/fingers don’t die the next day.  It’s actually not that bad, but I am sore all over a little.  So out of shape it’s not even funny.  Who gets sore after bowling?!!?

So. . .the roomate’s gf is still here. . .but there has been some kind of change, there’s another bag of garbage in the hallway, but I don’t know if that’s just cleaning, or actual packing/moving preparation.  Rob kind of asked the roomate what was going on, and didn’t really get an answer.  Apparrently some time yesterday or today on WoW he asked what happened to the Ice King, something the roomate claimed he was going to become after he broke up with her. . .and the roomate said “She wants to try to work it out”.  Rob told him he’s pussywhipped.  Today Rob asked him what was going on, and he said he wasn’t sure, that he was dealing with a lot right now.  :/  Whatever.  There’s a big surprise coming tomorrow!!!  :]

Not having a job is really starting to bug me out.  Like, I’m starting to freak out, because my money is slowly running out. So in my freaked out state, I went looking for jobs on Monster.com.  I don’t typically like looking for jobs on sites like monster.com and careerbuilder.com, mostly because they’re like, those cookiecutter jobs. . .those typical office jobs that perfect people do in perfect business attire in perfect cubicles with perfect smiles and perfect makeup and plastic hair. . .ugh.  I get sick just thinking about it.  But sometimes I look because I get desperate, or because sometimes craig’s list just has total crap.  So I went looking on there today, and I saw that the yarn factory around the corner from me is hiring customer service people.  Holy crap, I got so excited.  So I sent them my resume.  It would be so cool if I could work there.  :]  I had actually sent them my resume on a whim a while back, but they weren’t hiring back then. . .but they were really nice about letting me know that they weren’t hiring!  I hope they contact me.

Rob and I got into a conversation about smart kids, and he was telling me that when he was younger, he got a really high IQ score, and the testing people told him it was high, but told him they didn’t want to tell him the actual score, lest it go to his head.  Hah.  Stupid people.  It did go to his head, (but not in a totally bad way) but it wouldn’t have really, if they just told him the score # and left it at that.  What kid knows the IQ score chart?  Like, it would have just been a number to him. . .anyway.  It got us talking about IQ tests, and I didn’t think I’d ever taken one.  So he told me that you can take one at iqtest.com, and that it was pretty accurate.  I don’t know if they changed the test though, because he said that it took like 45 mins to an hour to complete.  But when I went there, the test was 38 questions.  I don’t know if mine was accurrate or not, because there were some questions I knew I’d have to sit there and really think about for awhile, that I might actually confuse myself with a couple of times, and for those I just guessed.  It was partially because I knew that each question was timed, and if you take longer than 20 seconds to answer, it’s points off your total score.  Rob said that I was supposed to try to figure those out, and not just guess at them and that my score was probably wrong cause I didn’t really try.  Either way, my score equated to “Above average”.  Not quite gifted.  Word.

So. . .another week. . . I’m going to try and see if I can do some yoga tomorrow.
