 I'm texting with Walt, one of the salesguys from the Porsche Dealership... they're hiring for a sales position. I.Want.It.Bad. Porsche sales is like my ultimate dream job! I absolutely adore those cars & I already know so much about them! But I think I need to stay at this job... damnit. This one will have more money in the long run & it has great retirement. Granted, it's boring as shit & I hate every minute that I'm here... but I have my future to think about.[:(] Agh, I hate doing "the right thing" sometimes. Okay... *kumbaya*... happy thoughts. So last night I made spicy mustard chicken, broccoli cheese rice, & a salad for dinner. Afterwards Terence went to the university to study & I have no idea when he got home. Well after 11pm. My cat has been wanting to go outside a lot lately... it kind of breaks my heart. He used to be an outdoors cat but since we live in an apartment complex now I can't let him out. However, my fucking neighbor ALWAYS lets her cat out though it's against our lease to do so & Kitty has been hearing that cat meow outside & can see him playing through the window. [:(] Poor Kitty. I don't know what to do. Anyway... today is dull. For some reason behind my knee is bothering me... it feels stiff. Weeeird. Irritating. Grr. Well I went back to my $1 coffee today! [:D] I definitely prefer regular coffee to espresso. It's more "crisp" I suppose. It's really pretty outside... which is making it hard to work haha. I haven't seen my squirrel outside my window recently... I hope he didn't get ran over! He had a few close calls last winter. Terence made contact with the guy he sold his Dodge to last year. Apparently the new owner is going to lower it & spray painted the whole front end white.... gross! Any lowered truck is dumb, especially up here... but a Dodge?! You can't lower a Dodge!! They're so bulky, it would look beyond stupid! Agh, anyway... that's my entry for now! Later
 My weekend was pretty bland, we hardly left the apartment. I was pretty down yesterday which is why I didn't update. Feeling better today but still not in the mood to explain any of it. What I will mention is that I had to pay $566.33 of my mom's bills... yay. [>:)] That and rent is due on Friday. I'm just glad that I saved all that money before I moved out or I'd be hurting really bad right now. I mean it still is hard watching these hundreds of dollars taken out of my bank accounts I've worked my ass off to put in there. I've been very good at saving recently too & *poof* there it goes! Okay, enough about that....  Yesterday I watched Almost Famous (one of my all-time favorite movies) & You, Me, & Dupree. We had yogurt w/ granola & scrambled eggs for breakfast & for dinner I made Paprika chicken with long grain wild rice & veggies. I wasn't too impressed with the chicken... I've never made it before & probably won't again. Tonight Terence won't be home until around 8pm. I've been wanting to see that movie Obsessed but I hate going to the theaters. So I'll probably just wait until it's available to rent. This morning I got a Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks. Kate Hudson had it on You, Me, & Dupree. I liked the name so I decided to try it haha. It's actually pretty good! I hardly drink espresso, so that's a big deal for me to like something like this. I usually get a cup of coffee at the gas station for $1. I won't be getting this stuff often though, since it's $4.50 a cup. I've been trying to be a penny pincher recently, like the rest of America. Alaska's economy is still doing well & everything but I want a house so am trying to save as much as possible! I'm shooting for fall 2011 as a move-in time. [:|] I figure that would be a good time because by then I'll be 22, about 6 months to a year into my CO job, Terence will be graduated & starting his job... perfect timing!  Update: 2:00pm Bored, bored, bored4 hours left then I'm heading home! I've kept busy most of today which is good and bad. Good because I haven't been just sitting here waiting for the clock to move & bad because I'll probably be doing that tomorrow. So now that it's nearly time to leave I am trying to slow it down so I'll have SOMETHING to do tomorrow. How the last Accounting Clerk stayed in this position for 5 years is beyond me. I'm waiting for my year mark (Nov 17th) & I'm OUT of here!! [:P]
 Hey there, girls. So it's Saturday evening... nearly 8pm. I figured I'd write an entry before kiwibox time switches over. Thursday night after work I went to my doctor because I had a major pain behind my eye/temple area. She put some iodine in my eye & checked it with a black-light to check it. Thankfully, there's nothing wrong with my eye. However, I still don't know what the problem is. Oh well I guess, it hasn't been bothering me too much the last 2 days. That night Terence and I also decided to drive all the way out to the Valley to get some video game he wanted to borrow from his buddy. We got some beer too so that was cool I guess. Friday we mostly stayed home (like today) & drank a teeny bit. Alaska is sooo boring sometimes. Most of the hobbies up here that I'm interested are expensive. Even if I were to buy ANOTHER 4wheeler I have no place to put it. I don't want to keep rifles in the apartment because of the crime rate if someone broke in they could take off with them. I'm not too interested in hunting or fishing... hm. I'll find something! Tonight we hanging out at the apartment AGAIN. Terence and I are sooo boring sometimes! I used to be wild before I met him & I quit ALL that shit... but sometimes I miss it. I always had something to do, liquor, money to blow, no commitments, no responsibilities... oh well I guess that's what being an adult is all about? It'll be fun again once we're financially stable. [:)]
I took the personality recommended by NoSpiesAllowed. Here are my results:You Are an ISTP (Introvert, Sensor, Thinker, Perceiver) ISTPs represent between 4 and 6% of the U.S. population (Also known as "Crafters") I don't want to paste the whole definition because it's really long, but here are some basics:"Crafters seek fun and games on impulse, looking for any opportunity, and just because they feel like it, to play with their various toys: cars, motorcycles, boats, dune-buggies, hunting rifles, fishing tackle, scuba gear, and on and on. They thrive on excitement, particularly the rush of speed-racing, water-skiing, surfing. And Crafters are fearless in their play, exposing themselves to danger again and again, even despite frequent injury." Interesting Side Note Regarding The Description Above: I've broken 2 ribs, my wrist, & have had spinal problems all from mobbing 4wheelers. On seperate occasions, in 3 years time."Crafters are hard to get to know. Their lack of expressiveness can isolate them at school and on the job, and even though they hang around with their own kind in play, they let their actions speak for them, and their actual conversation is sparse and brief."A couple famous people with my personality type are:Charles Bronson, Amelia Earhart, John Glenn, Clint Eastwood Describing what kind of careers I'd pick"ISTPs with more sedate careers usually take on high-risk avocations like racing, skydiving, and motorcycling. While aware of the dangers involved, they are so in touch with the physical world that they know they can get away with much smaller safety margins than other types"Me in a paragraph"ISTPs are equally difficult to understand in their need for personal space, which in turn has an impact on their relationships with others. They need to be able to "spread out"--both physically and psychologically--which generally implies encroaching to some degree on others, especially if they decide that something of someone else's is going to become their next project. (They are generally quite comfortable, however, with being treated the same way they treat others--at least in this respect.) But because they need such a lot of flexibility to be as spontaneous as they feel they must be, they tend to become as inflexible as the most rigid when someone seems to be threatening their lifestyle (although they usually respond with a classic SP rage which is yet another vivid contrast to their "dormant," impassive, detached mode). These territorial considerations are usually critical in relationships with ISTPs; communication also tends to be a key issue, since they generally express themselves non-verbally. When they do actually verbalize, ISTPs are masters of the one-liner, often showing flashes of humor in the most tense situations; this can result in their being seen as thick-skinned or tasteless." That's it for all that stuff. I'm busy at work right now. Thankfully it's Friday for me! I'm trying to drink like a gallon of water because I feel a headache coming on & left my medicine at home. Terence's birthday is less than a month away! (Well, 29 days but... that's still less! haha)
 I am pretty pissed off today. Yesterday I spent the last 3 hours of my shift just sitting in my office because not only was the system down but so was internet. Today I spent the first 4 hours doing the same thing. It's finally up & running but at this point I just want to go home. I'm no longer interested in doing my work. Also, the water is turned off in the facility for something. So is the heat. So no one can use the bathroom, everyone's thirsty, cranky as shit, & cold. Did I mention today is Admin Appreciation Day?? No kidding. 5 hours & 15 fucking minutes to go. Good thing I have Ice Cream & Vodka in the freezer. I'm going to bed early. I don't mean to be all complain-y... but somedays it just happens that way. Let's see... what are a few things that made me happy this week? 1. Last night Terence and I took a drive in the sunshine (at 10pm) to get Cold Stone. 2. They took my favorite signature ice cream off the menu (The German Chocolate Cake one), but made it for me anyway. 3. Kitty kept brushing my hair with his claws & patting the top of my head last while I was watching Family Guy. 4. Sage slept right inbetween Terence and me last night. 5. This weekend it'll be in the mid-50's! P.S. Last year for Admin Appreciation Day the owner of the Porsche dealership took me out to a great lunch at a seafood place, I got a smiley face pot full of colorful flowers from my coworkers & chocolates. It wasn't just about all the crap they did for me that day but I knew that they genuinely did appreciate the work I did there. They told me all the time throughout the year, not just because they "had" to on Admin day, like they do here. +P.S. I noticed a few responders thought that 2nd house on yesterday's entry was in Alaska, I forgot to say that it's in Austin, TX. It would cost well over a million dollars here too. Update: [color=hotpink]I got a hot pink rose cupcake for Admin day. It's too pretty to eat. I took a picture of it & may post it tomorrow. There's like a 3 inch high layer of frosting so I don't even know what to do. I'm probably going to end up taking it home for Terence.
