I have a boy...

His name is Ben. He's 21 years old. I enjoy him. He's fun. We've been dating for nearly two and a half months. I wanted to keep it to myself to see if it was actually something. I guess it is. More later. :)

Recently, I have not been having as much fun at work as I usually do. By fun I mean actual enjoyment. I still have a good time with the people here and the interaction from day to day, but I'm no longer enamored with the job itself. Business is slow right now, so I find myself bored a lot. Granted I have plenty of time to do the little things I don't normally have time to do, but I'm not enjoying the slowness of it all. I would really like things to pick up a little. I'm not a person that likes to sit on my butt and be paid for it. I know that sounds unamerican, but it's true. I would rather have something to do.

I have my resumé ready. I just have to get nice paper to print it on and send it out to places. I just need a change. Either a new job, or things speeding up here. Maybe I should wait to see how things go here. I have been told things are looking up around October, but that is still a month and a half away. I'm nearly to the end of my wits. Hopefully, I can make it until October, and things do pick up.

I keep so much to myself these days. It's hard to determine what is important enough to write in here.

Roomie and I had our first little scuffle, but we've seemed to come out the other side, and we're better for it, so it was a good experience. I think every set of roommates goes through some stuff, so I'm not really that worried. I'm just trying to be more considerate.

Work is still getting me down from time to time, but I am actively working on finding a new job.

I have no real love life to speak of. I hang out with friends that are boys, but I don't really have any boyfriends. I guess I'm workig on one or two to see where it goes, but I'm not in a hurry. Time is my friend. Currently, I only seem to be able to attract the younger ones. Seriously... twenty and twenty-one year olds enjoy me for some reason.

I thought I was getting another round of the mono, but I feel much better, and I haven't had any symptoms for a while.

All in all... everything is going well.

Somewhere there's a stolen halo
I use to watch her wear it well
Everything would shine wherever she would go
But looking at her now you'd never tell

Someone ran away with her innocence
A memory she can't get out of her head
I can only imagine what she's feeling
When she's praying
Kneeling at the edge of her bed

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She wants someone to call her angel
Someone to put the light back in her eyes
She's looking through the faces
The unfamiliar places
She needs someone to hear her when she crys

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

She just needs a little help
To wash away the pain she's felt
She wants to feel the healing hands
Of someone who understands

And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me
And she says take me away
And take me farther
Surround me now
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Holy water

Ok... this "cracked" me up... no pun intended... you'll understand in a minute. So we just ahd a drug and alcohol abuse prevention seminar here at work, but I was asked to mind the phones, while the receptionist went to the seminar. The session was supposedly mandatory, but apparently, my rampant drug and alcohol use isn't really a problem. ;) Either that... or they are organizing an intervention. The entire Corporate Office getting ready to "help me." (HA!) Because, of course, it would take all 50 people to get through to me.

Hah hahhahahhahahhahahha!
