I told you not to let her in here!

November 29th, 2007 Christopher No comments

Between dreams of Dana Delany (Katherine Mayfair, the new Housewife) sneaking into my hotel room to help me formulate some devious plot against China or something (I don’t know… I just recall her sneaking in with the laundry… really, I can’t make this stuff up); and, realizing that I have only been taking 1/2 the amount of weight gainer that I should have been, things have been rather calm this week following the day of gluttony. Last week my roommates held a house meeting which involved myself, Mandy, her husband, and his mom (yes… I know… it’s just one big happy house).  It was a pretty good idea I thought.  Nice way for any issues to be aired out and concerns of the house to be addressed.  As much as I do love living here – it’s time to get a place of my own!  It’s frustrating sharing a bathroom when I never really had to before… but I am grateful.  Let’s hope the e-mail I got today from my ad on Craigslist will work out.  I really need to get my place back east off my hands so I can save some money before I move into a place of my own.  Hmm… and now I’m craving coffee… lots of it.

Did you know…?

Apparently you can simply write out a letter to your apartment complex management explaining that you will be moving out and this sole action absolves you of all responsibilites from you lease… just like that! At least this is the logic of my former roommate’s father. Well, unfortunately, nor the management of my building or myself (or that fun little document called a lease) see it this way and it looks like this is going to get ugly. I spoke with my mom about it and after she did her “I told you so” taunt, she gave me some advice. God, I hate it when she’s right about something. I should have thrown myself in $60,000 worth of debt and gotten a condo… I’d owe, but at least I wouldn’t have to worry about a roommate tryin’ to skip out on a lease. I spoke with the property manager today and she is going to call Chris’ father to kindly explain to him the terms of the lease. Although it is not my responsibility, I’ve been looking around regardless for a replacement and nothing has come up so far. After that phone call with his father Saturday I was totally drained. I wanted to go out to Nation that night cuz it was 80′s night, but I just felt so empty and worn out from trying to make him see that he is responsible… he just had the opinion of “I don’t wanna,” like a 2 year old. This just fuckin’ sucks. Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse. Anyway…

I did get a small financial break which’ll free up an extra $200 a month so I’m pretty thankful for that. Let’s just hope that it does the trick. Or I may just have to become a trick! HAHAHA (KIDDING!, ew nasty)

Went to the movies last night with Jen… God how I missed her. Loved every minute of it! :) Thanks to my friend Cory for the free tickets ;-) We saw Robots and I have to say… what a great movie. It was good to get out and go do something again. I’ve been stuck at home so much due to the lack of funds and it was quite refreshing to be with friends and just be. :)

Cool as a fool in a pool…

Wow, plenty has been goin’ on since the last post… been working like crazy tryin’ to make as much money as possible and stay out of the house as much as I can. I’ve always been apt to become a workaholic when hours (and overtime) allow. I suppose if I have to work, I have an excuse to get out of the house and away from the ‘rents. Besides working I’ve spent a lot of time working on Jason’s site as well as a new one for DJ Seth Gold, a good friend who lives in Jersey and DJ’s in NY and DC. I went up there the weekend before last and had a BLAST! I love NY and I can’t wait to go again; and to be totally honest, who knows if I’ll come back. Took so many pictures with the cell… they’re all on my moblog. :-D

Havin’ the best time torturing Nik! He still doesn’t know what kind of car I have and it’s driving him absolutely bonkers tryin’ to figure it out. Geez, it’s been a while knowing him and he still hasn’t figured it out. Poor guy, I really should tell him…… nah! :)

I thought things were turning around for me when Brian told me about his friend who needed a roommate. I was so excited and giddy (yes giddy) that I didn’t even think to ask the obvious questions. So I get there and it’s a one bedroom with den, which was slight from what I was under the impression of. I was told it was a two bedroom. Needless to say, I’m not sure if I will be moving in. I don’t get a cell signal whatsoever until I’m about a mile away from the apartment; plus, it’s about 4 or 5 miles in the opposite direction from where I thought it was. Now I feel bad cuz I had gotten Glyn (would be roommate) all excited about me moving in and such, and now I don’t think I will be goin’ through with it. And just as I’m typing this entry, I get a response back from the guy who was renting an entire floor to a house… he rented it out about a week and a half ago. Nothin’ is working out. This just sucks, I swear, I’ll never get out of this place.

Oh well, I think I shall work on some site designs… g’night all.

"He looks like Big Bird!"

Oh where to start? So much has gone on since my last real entry. Well, let’s get the negatives out of the way… went and got myself hurt… again. Used is more like it, but I let it happen. I seem to give too much of myself whenever I become interested in someone, even when there isn’t a plausible relationship to be had; and even though I can foresee myself gettin’ hurt, I don’t waver from my path. This isn’t the first time I’ve done this, and I’m not sure if it will be the last. The thing I am truly upset about now is how I’ve let this last time affect my attitude. I’ve let this person make me believe that I am worthless and don’t matter, and we weren’t even dating. I’ve become bitter on some level because of it, which is something unbecoming of my character. The past few weeks have been quite off for me. One minute I’ll be fine, happy-go-lucky even; the next I’ll be shut away from the world depressed and dejected. One thing that does help is that the person, whom is duly described in the title, is no longer in my life and shouldn’t have an effect on how I go about my daily routine… yet I still think about him and what happened. As much as people tell me not to, I still question myself, wondering if I did do something wrong and if it was my fault; but all I can do is learn from the situation and move on. No regrets.

Let’s see… what else… work is going GREAT! I’m still loving the job and the paychecks! Benefits are awesome as well! Now only one more thing to do to become entirely independent… APARTMENT!!! I’m hoping to get down to the rental office and apply for an apartment this week, hopefully Thursday. Other than that, not much else has been going on other than settling down into work. I started my audit of my CCNA course, which I’m becoming less and less interested in. It seems as though I’m becoming more interested in web design. I’ve already published one site for a DJ friend of mine, DJ Jason Royce, and am now working on two others. One for another DJ from New York, and a band in central PA… and these will be PAID for. :) Maybe after these are done I can work on mine, hehe.

Speaking of web pages… I am loving this Nokia 3200 that I’m “borrowing” from the store. I’ve had it for about 9 days and I’ve already taken over 100 pictures and posted 78 of them on my moblog. Takin’ pictures of stretch hummer limos and hot guys standing in line at McDonald’s is a great way to pass the time. ;-)

Well, I suppose I shall get back to work… been pretty slow so far, so hopefully it’ll pick up before I leave today.
