I wonder if ill have a cube or an office at my new job. I've never had my own office. A gal can dream.
Last 4th of july I had no plans. Isn't that sad? I didnt even go to watch fireworks. Really grateful that this year I'll have options and friends and family.
New Girl and The Mindy Project are miraculous and should win all the writing awards ever.

I love The Mindy Project but I found New Girl to be really boring, not funny. Am I defective?
I have to go see a neuro ophthalmologist. I am so fucking tired of going to doctors appointments.
I haven't been grocery shopping in two weeks. I think if I wanted to eat lunch here I would have to eat a can of black beans. I don't even have eggs.
The only reason I am excited for the 4th this year is because I just bought a new nail polish that is red and blue and silver glitter. Also, fireworks.

Confession: I had my day of class last Wednesday. But I told H that I had one more so I could have some time to myself (there is actually one more, but it's optional, and I'm not going). My bff bought me a tarot card reading after I asked her about her experience with it, so I'm doing that instead.
My powder room is being painted at the moment. A lovely color called Cheating Heart. The old guy at the store tsk tsked at me when I had him mix it up. It's dark charcoal, almost black and I can't wait to see it.

I'm actually wearing white nail polish with red, blue, and silver glitter right this very moment! I'd PIP, but it's in desperate need of removal and looks terrible... But it was so cute when it was new! The silver glitter is star shaped, even!!
Mr. Smock and I had a very, very preliminary conversation about buying a condo in our building that is bigger and nicer than our current apartment, and very reasonably priced. This morning the for sale sign is gone. I can't tell if I'm happy, because buying property in this town is not a smart move considering we don't want to be here much longer, or sad, because I'm getting sick of our current apartment. I've been looking at other apartments in our neighborhood and they're all ugly and stupid.

I have a skype interview with the recruiter I asked you all about last week. She and I spoke on the phone last night and I made it to phase 2 of her interview process. This means I need to clean up my bedroom and wear at least my suit jacket and nice top. I'm excited.

Good luck Dixie!
I was nervous that I had upset people today, but everyone was in a good humor. Even had a nice conversation with workplace crush He was fiesty too, he's seriously one of my favorite things about this place.
Now I just need to deal with my evaluation tomorrow morning
captainmel, it's super cheap nail polish that I got on clearance for $1! Not high quality at all, but nail polish never lasts very long on me so I don't spend the money on high quality stuff. I'm classy like that.

Thanks Starries! I hope so, I have made some errors the last few weeks and there are 6 people who evaluate me--it could really go either way. Both my docs are nice, but they can be harsh if they think things need improvement (I love them anyway because they are awesome). We're all a little highstrung right now because my counterpart here is leaving and the folks above our department have no idea what they're going to do.
I may be getting an added responsibility though, so that's a plus?
Mel, give New Girl a chance--it improves the further you go into the season. I promise, it's a good show--I like it a billion times more than the Mindy project (which grew on me too, but not enough).

I might try New Girl again then.
The first Dunkin Donuts in the state opened today next door to my school. They have 5 police officers directing traffic because it is so crazy. I love donuts but that is insane to me.
