DOT...Dot...dot

Too much has happened since the last time I wrote. In short, I got my car towed, wasted a ½ tank of gas being lost in VA rush hour traffic, met a new lady, went to a pride party. And this is just the beginning of June. It may not seem like a lot but each of the above events span over 2 days.

I start work on Friday…YAY!!! And Jemies will probably be working with me. Still haven’t head back from the NWF job. Hopefully, I’ll hear at the end of the week. My advisor e-mailed me some alternatives to coming back to OWU in the spring so I’m excited about that. If I don’t have to go back to Ohio, that just opens up a lot of opportunities for me. I could get a permanent job or even look at apartments. That’s definitely a long shot since I do still plan on doing the Peace Corps as soon as I get my degree.

My family drives me crazy on a daily basis. Running around like a little slave child for my granny and lending an ear to my mom when she gets home from work. I still just like to escape sometimes and be around my peers. For example, this weekend I will be disappearing to VA to spend some time with the new lady. I met her on Friday and we just clicked. I’ve seen her twice since I met her. I’m just trying to take my time and get to know her.

Ms. Bailey, and I talked about the comment I made about her in a previous post. I made an incorrect assumption and she wanted to see what was up with me. She wanted to talk it out and see why I said what I said. We had a decent phone convo and did a little catching up. It was definitely and awkward at first because I don’t deal with confrontation well, but I did a lot of listening and not much talking and I guess things will be what they will be. She’s changed and deals with things differently so that’s good for her. Maybe we will build a stable friendship or perhaps that will be the last conversation I have with her. Only time will tell. And since I’ve been trying to write this entry for the past 2 days and I just wanna post something, I’m going to end it here.
