Nov. 7th, 2011 03:55 pmThis week, I:
* Got asked out*. By a lady! One who's previously met and interacted with me. I agreed, but otherwise have no idea how I feel. Do I like her? Sure! In a romantic, sexual, and/or dating sort of way? I don't have a fucking clue - friend/acquaintance -> romantic interest is completely outside my frame of reference. I spend a lot of time making sure it doesn't happen (I only needed to fall for an uninterested friendonce twice three times, thanks)! Emotional constipation levels are high! What are these strange human ways.
* Got an interview. For a Dallas job and not one I really want but blah blah blah, interview!!! My resumes aren't disappearing into a void! Someone likes how I look on paper! [rolls around in it]
* Will turn 27 (Wednesday). I have a long tradition of freaking the hell out on my birthday but I dunno, I'm not feeling it. 27 seems like such a friendly number, you know?
I'm trying not to let it overwhelm me - I've been working towards change and now it's starting to happen, that's to be expected. It's just... I've been focused, right, and everything's narrowed down to this one thing, this newjobnewlife tunnel. And now there's light, or the chance of light, a hint of 'maybe this is a tunnel and not a hole'. And the light is bright and big and overblown, like this metaphor. Anyway.
It's been suggested I make a list of things I want to happen in the next 6 months. ( That's what's under this cut. )
* Technically this was Saturday but whatever, the week starts when I say it does.
