Day 99: Flying

IT's May 23rd. In three days I'll celebrate six months with Kait, which is something that's actually pretty groundbreaking. Definitely by far the longest relationship I've had, and it's still going pretty much full steam. Eventually yes, there will be some hiccups down the road, but for now I think we're really strengthening up to weather the storms. Now lately we havent exactly had the most time to really bond with each other, but our late night runs to McDonalds to sit and chat are just all the more valuable. I guess if I wanted to sum up this section of my massive update, it would be with this word: Fulfilling.

Schools out, and I managed to pull out all A's by some miscalculation I'm sure. I know in Art I really shouldn't have had one, but I won't argue with the results. I'm somewhat above a 3.0 now, which is fine by me. Parents yell at me for it, but you know what? I'm happy with a 3.0. With an F on my record, and the bunch of C's I got, I think I'm doing well for myself with that 3.0. It's pretty good. And now that school's out, I'll get to focus more on my writing and my day job and Kaitlin, and everything else that needs focused on. So if I wanted to sum up school in one word: Conquered.

Work. Well Whataburger anyways. Clocking 40 hours a week consistently, making the money, and I get to work with Kaitlin every once in a while. Honestly I want a job thats a little easier on the stress level and gives me a chance to write or at least think about my writing on the job. Having to constantly think about #1s with no tomatoes, no onions, mayonaise instead of mustard with jalapenos and grilled onion with onion rings instead of fries and a DP to drink whatasized constantly. . . is hard on the head. I can't come home and write. I can't write at all actually, because it's just too tiring. Summed up in one word: Undesirable.

What about my other job, writing? Well the company is officially launched. We're still spot mopping on the website for grammar errors and such (which is even more embarassing) but we've recorded the first few interviews, and I know what stories I'm working on for the anthology we're putting out. The first story I got is riveting, but maddening at the same time because I never find time to work on it because I'm at work, asleep, or my parents are having me run errands. Not to sound like I don't appreciate them because I do, but I really do need the time to write. It's hard to call yourself a full time writer if you're clocking 5 hours a week at best. But were I to get time, I'm really thinking I can do this. Consistently. Summed up, minimal.

So lets see, Kait, Work, School, Writing. . . What else to cover?

Well life in general is going pretty great.

Summed up in one word
Surprising.
