News, of a sort

I have been quiet over on this blog of late, life just got in the way.

My latest internship opportunity has been weighed down by bad timing, miscommunication, and a terrible bout of "what are we doing?"

Such things have left me uninspired and unwilling to pursue much in the way of creative outlets. Family isn't much help, either. With each passing day, I grow more worried about my father. He's lost a lot of weight, is in constant pain, and has trouble remembering things. I'm not thinking it's dementia, but there is a strong case for it.

Luckily, I'll be getting away for a little while traveling the roads of the northwestern states, so maybe some battery recharging will help matters before the new school year starts.

Until next time, GlamGothChica, out!

I have started my food service internship this week. It's at a hospital an hour's drive away, and during orientation, I was set up to come in at 5am on three separate days during the rotation. Did I mention yet that I will still be working my part time tutoring job, which runs until 8pm every weeknight, save Fridays? Therefore I have preemptively tried scouring thrift stores and dumpsters for a mattress small enough to fit in my car, so I can sleep like a classy hobo rather than waste time (and fuel) driving home after such a workday.

I even made up my calendar using google; color-coding the days and places I will be working, which includes the weekends I spend teaching people not to further injure people who may or may not be dying. May and June look like a craptastic rainbow of the sort my five-year-old niece would color, using this method.

Since running on exhaustion is not conducive to socializing or creative outlets, I am having to opt out of my weekly hangout with my friends, which is a major bummer. We were even going to start on a Warhammer 40k campaign. I would have been awesome as a Sister of Silence.

Oh, and I finished my dead bodies anatomy and physiology class with a B. Not bad for only being able to parrot the material being shoved at me for 4 months.
