I very seriously need to write in here more.

Nothing amazing has happened in my life however.

Still working 3 jobs. The Museum, Subbing, and a comic book store.
While each of those jobs sound awesome in their own right...When I wake up in the morning I hate knowing where i'm headed.

The museum isn't terrible. I love the people, I know my job, i'm comfortable. What's not so great is that I've been there so rarely that I don't really know what's going on anymore. That means, I don't know new-hires, I don't know what gallery is coming or going I just feel out of the loop. So, it's really not bad at all....

Subbing is just so WEIRD. I don't think I was meant to be a teacher. However, I have been able to sub for the infant room. The district has a Learning Center where teachers or students with children can get basically free daycare. The infant room is ages newborn-1yr. There's 7 babies in there. I have learned how to hold them, take tempratures, change diapers, feed them and clothe them. They are much easier to handle for me. I haven't had a chance to work with the older babies though... oh well.

The comic book store.....*sigh*. It sounds awesome. It was AWESOME when I got hired on. It's more or less what I actually want to do. But the people inside bicker and fight and make scenes ALL.DAY. It's awful! One guy actually told me while we were closing together that my boss is looking for a reason to fire me and that my best bet is to start finding another job. This was after he got mad at me for not closing the store on time (while he and his D&D buddies didn't leave till 15 minutes after close...). It's become such a negative enviornment and such a drag to work there that I hate it. HATE IT. But the store itself is awesome and one or two other people are great enough that it almost seems worth staying.

I am however finally starting to look around for a full time gig. God willing, someone somewhere will want me. Pray for me!

Enough about jobs!

Tonight I am hosting Book Club at my new apartment! Aldo and I stayed up (mostly Aldo) till late decorating the apt to be halloween-y. The book we're covering is The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury. It was an AWESOME read and if you're intrest is even slightly piqued then you absolutely grab a copy of it. It's a very small book and the language is beautiful. There's also a cartoon of it out there. I watched it on YouTube so you can too! It's going to be a pot-luck so lots of different food. I'm making a Mummy Pizza Roll, and Sugar Cookie Candy Skulls. I'm hoping other people will bring stuff more along the food line and less along the drinks line...but we'll see how that goes. At least my couch is a pull out so people can crash if they need to.

Alrighty, we'll...i'm off to start cooking and stuff...

yay I'm so glad you are still working away at your three jobs. Of course naturally it would be nice to have a full time gig, but you know, making things happen, conquering the world on your own, all that stuff. Your Halloweeny apartment sounds so nice. I'm not sure how Halloweeny halloween will be around here, but I should probably try to get my hands on a pumpkin, because I don't think I've ever *not* carved a pumpkin on Halloween. Once I carved a squash. I'll try and look for a copy of the Halloween Tree. I like Ray Bradbury, his language is dense but colorful and evocative.
