I want you to stop and take a minute to let that information sink in.
I. Have. A. GIRLFRIEND.
Also... nevermind. I shouldn't say that here.
So, things have been nuts for the past month or so. Actually one month exactly (today marks our one month anniversary, yay us). I've done so much and gone so many places this past month my head is spinning. We've been to museums, restaurants, book stores, movies, farms, comic shops, our respective homes, my college, a play; we've played board, card, word, and travel games, listened to each other's music, watched each other's favorite online videos, picked each other's brains. It's been a full month. However, this is not the only thing to have happened.
I decided to stop trying to get a job for the summer. I really think it's too late to get one anyway. I would hate to work for someone for two months, only to quit when school starts, so I'm not going to. Simple.
School starts August 24, and hopefully my financial aid will go through before then so I don't have to take emergency measures again. I say again because I recently sold a ton of my manga for quick cash. Seems all the gas I use has tripled in the past month (and it didn't help that I used up our cash line either) and that set off a chain reaction where just about everyone is strapped for cash around here, except maybe Patrick who has a job and can take care of himself.
I've been getting a little bit more serious about my Go playing lately. I'm almost to the point where I'll have to commit to it to get better and I'm not sure what will happen this time around when I reach it. I've made a few friends by playing it and I enjoy it a lot, but it's one of those games where if you're not improving it's not much fun. I'll just have to burn that bridge when I come to it.
In book acquisition news, I completed my set of Transmetropolitan but I still need to go back and read it straight through from beginning to end. I've also discovered the joys of thrift shops. I got this awesome book from the 1960s called "The Modern Wonder Book of Knowledge". It's basically a fun encyclopedia about sciency things like gyroscopes, space exploration, atomic energy, refridgeration, matches, and diesel engines to name a few.
One thing I'm worried about right now is my car. Last night it hit 123,000 miles and right now the pipe between my catalytic converter and my muffler cracked in twain, so now my car is noisy as fuck. This is in addition to not having updated my brake tags, so my chances of getting a ticket is pretty high. I'll just have to trust in my ability to not get pulled over.
So that's about all I can think of right now. Another journal in 100 pageviews. You know the drill.
P.S. I'm not going to describe or say anything about my girlfriend to protect her anonymity but those who are curious can probably find out about her through certain channels.
