it’s 6:27am right now and im about to start getting ready for work. ive been wanting to post here for the past week, but i keep finding myself hesitating. why?! i should just feel happy to post!
i think i will soon add a section on my cd collection to this website. theyre so important to me and, honestly, it gives me something to write about. maybe ill also share some of my current writings ive been doing for my story. my mother is pushing me to publish (for money), but i need to finish it before i can even think of that.
now i need to get up and shower. today’s another day at work, so i gotta get to it. feeling free releasing myself from the feeling that everything i do here must be orderly. it’s my website. let me have some fun!!
oh yeah, and it was persephone’s birthday this past friday on the 26th! my familiar is 3 now! hooray!!
this morning, i left the house at 7:30 in the morning to venture across brooklyn for work. im in an interesting place with my job: if a better paying offer came, i cannot confidently say i would not take it. however, it is not that i dislike the job. no, in fact, i rather enjoy how easy it is for me. not much to do, either way (though my supervisor seems to believe it to be a busy period).
one thing i enjoy about my morning rides (multiple buses…if you know, you know) is how long they are. really. i get to sit and do nothing of worth for about and hour. then i do the same at work (at least, im struggling to find my personal worth there currently, but i digress) and then go home. then we do it all over again tomorrow. not necessarily a bad deal, right? for the amount i get paid, it does seem a bit much. but, still, this is the most ive ever made.
i work on my story a lot in the mornings as i obsess over my MTA or google maps app to make sure i dont miss my stop (an eternal fear of mine). depending on traffic im either 10 or 30 minutes early, which gives me even more time to sit around in the office, haha ^^ i think that ive fallen back into the routine of going somewhere daily and having tasks.
i recognize that this role is more so a hold over as i apply to phd programs again this fall. i hope to document some of that here, too (since you’re being held captive and forced to listen to me anyways). quite embarrassing to, as a vampire, have to petition beings with far less lived experience than i to…let me study under them. but, this is something i have not pursued before. it gets slow after five hundred years (well, 250 was when i really started to yawn), so im going for it. round three!
anyways, the work day ends at five, im home by six fifteen, and the world is mine again. miss persephone awaits (and i thank her for holding down the fort). i have some things to do after work, including acquiring sustenance for my dear familiar. as for me, my last meal was quite unsatisfactory. it’s always a shame when the blood bank is out of my favorites (apologies to the poor human who met that gruesome fate…i was just so hungry). i also need to get some…”human” medicines. time starts to get to you, and i will commend you all for the development of these “pills”. what a life saver (for me haha)!
