Happy Birthday to Me
Jul. 6th, 2004 09:42 pmBirthday = good
Today, I am 22. Went to work, and did nothing productive but re-read several hundred pages of Harry Potter 5. But, courtesy of my birthday, I now have new books to read, including the two Connie Willis books (collections of her short stories) that I did not previously own. Huzzah. And I got 4 new CDs, two of which were on my list, one of which I mentioned I like when Dad mentioned he saw an ad for it, and one I didn't know existed but that I anticipate enjoying thouroughly. And I got clothes. And season 6 of BtVS on DVD, more Huzzah, as it has the episode where Xander saves the World, the end of which I didn't record when it originally aired. And the musical episode. So, life is good. And, yummy carrot cake for my birthday, made by my most wonderful mother. All in all, a decent way to ring in a new year.
Except for the one rejection letter, the cool job that was already taken and the other job that needs someone to start right away, which I can't as that would be an excessive commute w/o a PortKey, appartating, or a transporter. Oh well. There's always waitressing (which I've never done) or hopefully, if I must, working as a hotel receptionist on the night shift (and doing homework at work). We'll see. Going down to the city to find an apartment and look for a job this weekend. Must send e-mails. Please remind me.
That's all. Must shower to rinse the horrid chlorine out of my hair and off of my skin (but God I love water aerobics).
