So, with only two weeks to go until the company closes - I quit Borders.
They weren't really working with my schedule and all in all it just wasn't going the way I planned.

On the other hand, I now have ONE semi permanent Part Time job at my local comic book store. It's close enough to my new apartment that I can walk there in about 10/15 min. There's so much to learn! But, i'm finally in a place that I want to be. It's independent, it's a book store, they work ALOT with children and schools. This is the job that finally gets me the experience I need in the field I want to be in. Once I (finally!) finish up my schooling I'll have both! Not only that, but I've been told multiple times by multiple people that as long as I don't (basically) suck and do my job to the best of my ability that I will be up for a full time position. Plus, the looks on people's faces when you say that you work in a comic book store (and you're a woman...) is priceless. Whenever I have time off from the store, I pick up shifts either at the Museum or I substitute. It pays the bills.

I love my new apartment. My cat loves my new apartment. My dad came up to visit a few weeks ago and my mom sent up a couple of curtains, and a table! :) Since the table we've had a few game nights. It's been awesome. I'm thinking of possibly buying a new rug for the middle of the floor (beige, brown, blue?) and a fan. For some reason, my apartment doesn't have a celing fan in the living room area. I don't mind having lamps, but I like circulating air. So...a fan is what's called for.

Other than work, not much is going on. Elessar's birthday is at the end of this month. He's finally getting the tattoo that he's wanted for years, so today after I get out from work we're going tattoo shop shopping. He's also goiong to have a themed birthday "wild at 25". lol, He's getting the tattoo (wild!) then we're going to go watch the Lion King Re-release in 3d (lions, tigers and bears, oh my!), followed by dinner at the Rainforest Cafe ('cause you know...how much more wild can ya get?). I think it'll be fun. The next weekend, just a few friends are gathering to go camping in Oklahoma. Nice Birthday, right?

That's pretty much all that's going on right now.
Life is well. I'm working on moving up.

Helena my dear, will you message me your new address? :D
