Dec. 3rd, 2005

I had a great birthday. Lots of people remembered. I got several cards and a couple of presents! I don't know why am I constantly surprised when people act caring towards me, but everytime it catches me off guard. I am so thankful for my friends (both new and old).

I've been thinking a lot the past few days. There is a music job opening at my high school alma mater. Part of me is very tempted. I have been becoming increasingly homesick over the past few weeks. So much so I contemplated driving home the weekend of Thanksgiving. It would be nice to be around family again. My trip to Ashland only made me more homesick. Then I start imagining living in southern WV again, and I couldn't do it. I really think of Columbus as home. I don't want to leave.

I have started taking some baby steps toward some other kind of employment. Mainly letting people know I'm looking. I'd like to go back to school, but frankly I can't afford it. And, truth be told, I'm scared. What if I've lost my edge? I really doubt my ability to get a grad assissantship or fellowship. I don't know.

in other news, i've gained a couple of pounds. The lack of consistent exercise, and the fact "i'm being a woman" are the 2 big contributing factors. I need to get back on track.

we are supposed to get a new dryer downstairs. i think i'll take a couple small loads over to dave and phil's (i'm dogsitting again mon-wed) to get me through, maybe go to the laundromat on wednesday evening.

i am debating going christmas shopping with the one high interest rate card, and pay it off in january with the bonus check. this is dangerous idea so i'm still planning on going after i get my check.

i feel like crap. i think i'll hit the bed early tonight. maybe even get ready for be about 9:30 then calling dave.

I shall leave you with the quote from the birthday card i got from the choir director

Winnie the Pooh- "Everyday is Somebody's birthday"
Piglet- "Oh my, that's a lot of cake."
