Senior-ita

Since the last time I blogged I've been to my new job four times. It's pretty OK, I guess. Everybody I work with is super nice and everyone seems to like each other and get along. That's a pretty big deal for me since every job I've had in the past has come with lots and lots of drama. I'm still a bit nervous whenever I'm on the floor or ringing someone up since I'm still so new (and clueless) but hopefully I'll get more comfortable with time and will be able to actually find stuff when people ask me for help. Other than that, it's a relatively easy job and I'm only there 1-2 days a week so it's not that big of a deal.

School's been going alright except for the fact that my senioritis is kicking in a little prematurely. I just HATE homework with such a passion that it takes every ounce of energy in my being to get it done. And it doesn't help that I'm so easily distracted by the internet, tv, daydreams, food, kitties, etc. I'm really starting to think that I have ADD. Like, for reals. I don't recall having such a short attention span in the past. I really don't. I always manage to get my homework done but it's been pretty last minute for the past semester or two.

I think I may have put too much on my plate this semester for a person with such a natural tendency towards laziness. I mean with going to school full-time, working two jobs, keeping up with making/writing new comics and trying to have somewhat of a social life...I don't have enough time or energy to eat regularly let alone do dumb homework. Uggghhhh...(YAWN) Man, I'm getting sleepy just thinking about how much stuff I have to do...

The only bright side(s) I can see to my current situation is that A.) I'm young and B.) it's only temporary. Hopefully this year will zoom by and then I can look forward to kicking the dust of this one-horse town off my boots. I am so over Arizona, seriously. Arizona is an energy vampire if you ask me. I miss brisk days, green trees, snow capped mountains, and rain drops on my window. I find colder weather invigorating so these blazing hot days make me feel like a lethargic, sweaty, lazy, fat lump. November cannot come soon enough. I'm so ready for tights, boots, and light jackets.

Friday I went with my mates to First Friday in downtown Phoenix and once again it was a total let down. We went to cruize babes mostly and were majorily disappointed but not that surprised by the general lack of babes in Phoenix. Out of  approximately 3,000+ people we saw ZERO even decent looking males. Times are tough for single gals, I'll tell you what. We did have a fun girl's night out though even if we did get bugged by a bunch of 15 year old boys. After we'd had our fill of bad art and gross dudes we got hungry and got grilled cheeses at Denny's. It's pretty sad when the highlight of a Friday night out on the town is a grilled cheese sandwich and seasoned fries.

Add: the seasoned fries came with ranch.

Oh, and I almost forgot! I recently cut my hair. I had planned to grow my hair long again before I turned thirty but I didn't get very far. I didn't even make it to shoulder length. I've had short hair for 7 years now so having hair constantly on my neck was driving me bananas. Plus I just don't feel like myself without short hair. It's become like my trademark. I guess long hair just isn't for everybody, especially us low-maintanence folk.

Here's a pick of my "new" do!

Anywho, I better stop arsin' around and get these drawings done.

Later gator!
