man, i'm a slacker.

hello, shaun. (that was to be read in a british accent, because the word slacker automatically triggered an image of shaun from shaun of the dead. also, have been binging on bridget jones' diary and been thinking in british accent almost incessantly as a result...hmm...perhaps should not have admitted last bit.)

very well. moving on. things have been INCREDIBLY interesting in the world of the great selenie. actually, that was a big fat lie. i was lying just then. things have been pretty mudane and boring. go to work, go to bar, go to bed. that sort of thing.

that was until current santa rosans, terrance and andy showed up. i took four days off work and proceeded to show them all of my favorite landmarks, which coincidentally are bars, and then showed them all of my favorite eats, which coincidentally happen to be located inside bars. it was quite enjoyable until of course the drinking began to catch up with us, and by us i mean me. and then, of course, it all went downhill from there. i would like to point out that the blame for any drama caused falls squarely on the shoulders of the seventeen or so beers that i mysteriously consumed on that night, and NOT on my own character flaws or insecurities. who am i kidding? i'm such an ass sometimes. but good friends will love you no matter what, and lucky for me, terrance and andy still do.

all bs aside, it was great fun finally having friends to show the city off to. and i think despite my intervention-worthy behavior, there still might be a chance that andy would move up here. which would be bad ass. you know who else is bad ass? my new friend greg. he's a windsor native, but don't judge him by that. he's fantastic. and he knows how to enjoy a good old fashioned slumber party. minus the nail polish and facials. he got really touchy about that. anyway, he's a good kid and i'm stoked to know someone outside of work, not to mention, i now have a wingman for going out to meet people! life is looking up!

AND! i interviewed today for a new job, and i think it went well! it's a day care center for toddlers, and while it doesn't really pay well, they really take good care of their staff. the paid holidays, 401k plans, subsidized bus passes, and free ece classes really make up for the ten bucks an hour. i should hear back by friday - wish me luck cause i want a new job so badly and this one would be wonderful!

anyway, i think that's enough drivel for one day. i'll try to write more by the end of this week. until then, i remain, selenie in seattle.

here's your found item of the day:



this was apparently found stuck in the window of the space needle restaurant. gotta love that washington hospitality!
