So for the past 5 months now, I have been expecting a drug test. Stopped smoking of the green in preparation and gave up poppy seeds. I don’t miss the pot, but I do miss the seeds.

So… yeah… I got the job! Yee ha! This is very exciting.
Honestly, this is probably one of the best places I’ve ever worked for a lot of different reasons. It’s been a social boost and, in terms of networking, has really helped me out. It’s expanded my choices for socialization and gotten me a great group of friends. It’s also challenged me professionally to really make use of the things I’ve learned over the course of working in IT.
I am *so excited* to be going back there. It really really seems like a cosmic birthday present. I don’t want to put too much into what’s going on and what’s to come, but I’m starting to think that 30 might be a pretty damn good year. I know that 29 surely was.
So this is it, really. My last day in my twenties. I can’t say I have regrets, at least not in terms of things I would do differently or change. I really like who I am and who I’m becoming. The choices I’ve made in the past 5 or so years have been very smart and healthy choices to make. Part of me wants to make resolutions of some sort, but I don’t like to write those things down, in case of failure.
Let’s just say that there are a couple of things that I will be changing about myself, they are between me and myself for the moment. I’m sure, as they begin to occur, they are things that will prompt me to write and share with the anonymous readers and even the not-so-anonymous ones.

It’s true, sometimes things just happen the right way and you never know why or when it will occur in that fashion. This has been one of those weeks.

My parents were the reigning king and queen of parties when I was growing up. 2-5 times a year they would have these incredibly parties that would last for 2 days sometimes and would garner anywhere from 50 to 100 people at them. It was fun and crazy and that was a large part of my upbringing, seeing all these people from various walks of life, all come together in celebration of… whatever there was to celebrate.

I’m totally off my normal sleep schedule. This past week I have been at my most productive after midnight, and not tired, so I’ve been working for several hours at kicking the place into shape and passing out in the wee hours of the morning. (I have also been playing as hard as I work, so I’m not NEARLY as burnt out as I otherwise would have been.)

Still in the midst of readying the apartment for the party. Still in the midst of getting things from Mom’s. What this really means right now is a lot of sorting and a lot of throwing things away… but there’s a lot of *not* throwing things away, too. Decisions that need to me made in terms of what to do with assorted stuff.

Red Eye is an excellent movie, but it is *not* a horror flick. I was a little disappointed, but I highly enjoyed my time hanging out with Allison, who is so incredibly busy I hardly ever see her.
Well the move being almost complete, I’ve started unpacking and rifling through boxes. Some of these boxes have been in storage (read: Mom’s basement) for 5+ years now, so I never know what I’m going to find. In additions to things that I knew I had (like my comics, Spawn’s baby books and knick knacky suchlike), I’ve found a lot of surprises. Pictures I had forgotten that were taken and a ton of my old writings.

Children are supplied, at a very young age, with a list of “Don’ts”.
It’s been an incredibly long day. Went to camp for Visitor’s Day to visit the Spawn and had a nice time. I enjoyed the round-trip with the Dragonmaker and got some really good gossip that I’m not inclined to state on the internet.
Went over to mom’s to pick up the table, chairs and some misc. stuff… I am wiped out. I have 5 days of hard work ahead of me to get ready for this damn party. Hopefully Chaos will take me up on my offer to give him a place to stay this week in exchange for his assistance in readying the house.
Part of me wants it done for when Spawn comes home. Part of me needs it done for the party, but let’s be completely honest here… I just want it DONE.
So tired… want to sleep… too damned many stairs…
