Journal: Home
People spend a lot of time at wotmania, and I think that's a bit of an understatement. I decided that letting people keep a journal at wotmania (whether it be about wotmania or Real Life™ in general) might be a good thing. These journals can be kept completely private, or open for the world. Below are some of the most recent entries that are available for public consumption. Enjoy!

Well, here I go. I'm on my way out to my front yard. It is 10:49 and very cold out. And it's DARK. And I'm alone. And scared. But this is how I entertain myself when I'm grounded. I set up the tent, lawn chair, and imaginary camp fire. I made a colouful sign that says: Supercalafragalisticexpialadocious Beach. Tonight I'm stargazing, tomorrow, suntanning! But I already got so freaked out just taking my blankets out that I had to sick my miniature poodle on the "thing" that had gotten into my tent before me. The thing turned out to be...nothing.
I have a very over-active imagination.
Goodnight

Let me see how to explain this...
I don't know, if things will be okay now. I don't know if I'll be able to function at the level I need to and get it all together. I don't know if I'll be able to achieve a sort of happiness/contentment/just general okay-ness.
But I knew before that I could never be happy with such a dark secret hanging over my head. I did know that; I only stayed quiet because I was too afraid to speak. All I could do was set the wheels in motion for it all to come clear, which has finally happened.
Anyway... since I knew I couldn't be happy, before, I sort of stopped trying. I could have made more progress before now, and I think that's why I haven't.
Now. Secrets are out. Blank slate. No more lies, no more isolation. Tomorrow's going to be a very busy day; it's going to exhaust me, and I don't know how well I'll handle certain parts of it. It won't be any easier than it would've been Monday, Tuesday, or even a month ago. But I'm gonna try, because now, there is a chance I could feel good - or at least okay - at the end of it.

Today my parents have just found out that I withdrew for mental health reasons. Presumably they will soon know about my plans for the future.
My financial support, I think, is about to be cut off entirely.
I think they will either disown me entirely or insist that I come home and live there (despite the fact that they don't actually want me to). Either way, I don't think it's a good idea for me to go back. Too many issues. Still so much fighting.
Today (in Belgium, anyway) is also the two year anniversary for Paul and me.
And in the coming week, I need to:
- file an application for a passport
- make sure all my bills are paid
- go shopping
- get a job
- get a debit card, credit card, and get my finances in order
- pay the summer fees at the clinic
- a lot of other stuff
I'm scared.

So, my lease ends the 31st. Well, I'm breaking it as of then.
I have a cable box in my room.
Starting 2 days ago, my landlord started demanding that I either A. pay for another month of service, or B. give her the box back NOW.
Well, I basically asked what the term of the bill was, and wasn't given an answer.
So the roommate texts me (even though I've asked her several times NOT to text me) at 12:30 last night, to ask when I'm paying the bill. I ignored it cuz dude, it was 12:30 at night, and (surprisingly) I was sleeping.
So she texts me again this morning.
I ignored it. Not because I didnt want to pay it, but because she was being obnoxious about it. I am not going to deal with your stupid cable bill while I'm running around getting me and two little people ready for the day.
So she she stays in the bathroom, KNOWING she's not the only one who needs the bathroom.. until 8 am. When she is usually out of the house by 7:40..
ugh.
So. in order to get into the bathroom, I had to talk to her, and she wouldn't leave until I talked to her about the cable bill. Seriously.
Then the landlord started in in email this morning.
yeah. So. I filled out the sheet and reported her to the city since, in the words of the city building inspector, she is "illegally" renting the home to me.
I tried being nice. It didnt suit me.
Amyzilla has arrived.

I got to pretend I was a CSI today and solve a murder! We got to view a crime scene that appeared to be a suicide.. but we knew better  it was definitely a murder according to blood spatter, smears, gun placement, note and whatnot. So we got to take shoeprints and fingerprints and do some interviewing. It was so much fun, even though my team didn't win. I even got a fake badge  ! Plus it was in a college, and college boys are cute 
 I think I've just died and gone to heaven, only without the awkward dieing part. Wait a second, heaven surely isn't the one with firey pits of doom.... Uh oh

After my poor Kia rolled and was totaled, I have been looking for a car. Fortunately a good friend loaned me a car until I could find one. I know my Kia was not a fabulous car, but I bought it new and took care of it. It was a wonderful car. But at last, I took the keys off my keychain and said a last soft goodbye.
I bought a 2000 silver Olds Intrigue. It is an automatic and I prefer a manual transmission, but I hope it drives as well as my Kia did. It will be nice to have my own wheels again.

I got one today: The CEO from the lab where I've worked the last three summers and is supposed to work again this year, called me this morning and wondered if I would be interested in coming to work for them after I finish uni. That's supposed to be in a few weeks (eeek, that means I need to start a real life™ with a job and all). I couldn't talk much today because we were writing on our thesis, so I'll call him back tomorrow.
The catch is that the education I'm wrapping up is to be a teacher, and this job would not be connected to teaching at all. Tomorrow morning I have an interview for a teaching job (getting up at 5 to take the train at 6, interview at 10), and I've applied for several more and plan to do that with another few in the coming weeks.
This job would probably pay a bit better than teaching, although I'm not sure how much a difference it'd be. It'd mean moving back home, which I'm not sure I want to do. The teaching jobs are all over the country, none back home though.
Methinks I have some hard thinking in the next couple of weeks about what I want to do. One option would be to take the job I'm offered, work for a year or two and pay down my student debt, then get back into teaching with a diploma and some work experience when applying. I do know I'm not very fond of the idea of working in the lab for more than a few years, at least.
Quality procrastination should always be given the time it needs.

The skyline was beautiful on fire; all twisted metal stretching upwards, here and there a wash of thin orange haze. You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream. . . or a fever.
darkwindblows - Godspeed! You Black Emperor
When the Devil came to collect his due, he was wearing that insulting, sadist grin. I had to wonder how fast can this bridge burn?, so I grinned back, grabbed just a bit more than my fair share and ran for it.
This morning I woke up and fell a little bit further down. I brushed my teeth in the shower, then put on the same clothes I wore yesterday. Even though I had no appetite, I made a cheese sandwich to eat on my way to work. While driving through town I noticed there were no people in the streets. The only colours I could see were on the billboards leaning in over me with greedy lust.
Though I didn't really have time for it, I stopped at a gas station to get some more cigarettes. I threw my sandwich in the trash on the way in. Björk screamed State of Emergency into my ears while I waited in line. Then I opened my wallet to find some cash, and suddenly realized that it's full of blood.
If it's locked it ain't locked when no one's around.
Thanks, everyone. I'm better now.

Drawing.
Not gonna sleep 'til it's done.
Re-learning how to draw. Yes. It was time. Months, too long, and today someone referenced old creative works and it was enough to make me sob, because I miss being who I was. Breathing in the scent of pencil shavings, scrawling phrases in the margins of school notebooks, giving up nights for the thrill and not for the fear... all that, and duties besides; it was time.
But the drugs don't work, at least, not that way. I can't hold a pencil quite like I did a year ago, so I have to learn a new way. Let's be impressionists. Let's figure it out, one stroke at a time.
Six hours later, only a few square inches of color, but a face, and it's who I want her to be... the carpet is littered in pencils, shaving, bristol board. Alanis has been singing her throat raw through three albums, poor girl. And I'm all over the room: computer chair, floor, bed, leaning into it with a lamp balanced on my knee because I want the light there and it doesn't matter how precarious this fragile bulb's balance may be.
Hello, my name is Angie. I draw pictures.

There's one person at uni who I find really irritating. I don't know why, he just seems to bug me.
Problem is he always sits next to me and tries to be friendly. I've tried talking to him, and he is a nice guy, but I just can't bring myself to like him. The problem is he doesn't have many friends, and if I stop talking to him...well I'm not sure what would happen but it probably won't end well.
I'm doing my best to convince myself to at least put up with him, but it's not really working.
What can I do?

Well today was the big "everything is happening" day for me.
I started the day off dropping my truck off for yet more repairs at the dealer. I got a rental car for the couple of days it will take, which too way too long.
Immediately following that I had an advising session at the school...My advisor thinks I'm a bit crazy, and told me as much. My classload for the next two semesters scares her! I told her I think I'll be ok though, and she was ok with that.
After that I had the pleasure of going to court for that whole littering ticket. They reduced the fine to only $140, which was much better than the $500 that it could have been.
Following that I got to go to Brake Check to argue with them about whether or not they were paying for the repairs to my truck. The store manager tried arguing with me telling me that they've done the kind of repairs they did for me a million times and that they've never had this problem before, so they didn't think it was their fault. I just told him that according to the research I did, and the mechanic at the dealer it was their fault. He still didn't believe me, and asked to see the research. I pulled it up immediately, and it was magnificent. The first sentence said "if your car was in repairs for the rack and pinion, and the airbag light is now on, then they absolutely caused the problem. It is from the spiral cable, and is caused by failing to lock the steering column while replacing the rack and pinion steering." He read that sentence and just looked at me and said, well if that's the case then there's nothing we can do, I'll contact the dealer and verify that this is the problem and we'll get it taken care of.
It felt good to stand up for myself.
Now I'm at work, and it's pleasantly slow. Thanks for reading, I know it was boring, but oh well.
