Friends

A few days ago, my boyfriend realized that I don't really hang out with other people much:

One of the reasons being that all my "friends" jumped ship when I didn't want to go out all the time and I was unemployed, so I didn't have money to spend on superfluous things like fun/food::

So, now that I have money again and a new apartment, I am working on making friends:

But I don't have the patience for trivial drama and gossip:

I am really honest/blunt, sarcastic/snarky, and a huge goof/dork/nerd/spaz:

Then again, I've never had a problem making friends:

Work Week #3 - Pay Day, Planes & Pastries

This Friday, I will receive my first bi-weekly check from my new job.

And then its time to pay my bills:

My grandmother is offering to pay for half of my plane ticket home:

This Morning, I found a ridiculously large spider in my kitchen sink:

And then my boyfriend killed it:

People in my office are getting sick:

Thankfully, I'm just allergic to my new apartment building (Cats):

On the plus side, I'm now half a block from a french cafe:

Seattle Soccer, Skype-ing with family, Solitude, and Tea

This has been another eventful weekend. I spent most of it organizing, unpacking and cleaning (as usual).

I got tickets to see another Sounders (Seattle Soccer Team) game, this time from my job and in a suite. It was nice to be around people from the company that I got along with and Sounders beat Chicago Fire 2-1, with a spectacular OwnGoal by the player who scored on us first. Ha!

After that momentous occasion (a perfect Saturday of beer, friends, soccer, and cuddles), Sunday was a little more relaxed. I hopped on Skype to say hello to my family (who are all on the east coast).

The boyfriend went home to do stuff with Unity and particles and I'm enjoying a cup of tea and being in my own space again. We both need and deserve a little alone time after the craziness that was last month.

It's nice not to be a squatter anymore.
