I said I was thinking about coming back to Tumblr and I think I will. Maybe not as chronically online as I had been, but I think I should. Considering that this website was an integral part of my teenage years into the majority of my 20s lmao
To start off, I think I should make a post letting you know where I've been in the last 2 or so years...
First off, I now drive. I have a 2004 Blueberry blue Rav-4 and I love it with all my heart despite the driver-side window breaking last month and the check engine light coming on every few months
I quit my job at the theater after taking a full-time job at another company doing something completely different. I got the job in September last year and quit the theater in October when there was some internal changes with the theater. I was originally going to keep my job for just when needed on the weekends, but...It sucked because at that point all the managers I'd started with were gone. It was partially a loyalty thing but also just...Not feeling it anymore lmao. Really, I outgrew it and I was maybe one of 3 people over the age of 27.
I'm currently working on a cover letter for another position in the company I'm currently at. Oh, and this job gives me really fucking good insurance and I now am seeing a doctor regularly and have a therapist and am on lexapro so yay me. I ride an elevator every day at my job and write a lot of emails that say "my apologies for the delay in getting back to you". I have a fucking SIGNATURE lmao
I also spent last summer working at an outdoor museum dressed in period clothing. I don't think I'll ever get a job like that again because it was kind of brutal on my body, but it was also the most fun I've had despite having so many panic attacks. It did help with the driving though because the drive was about a 45-hour long drive in a fucking corset lmao I know way too much about Wisconsin's bicycle history now. It's actually 100x more fascinating than I'd thought.
I also spent the first half of that summer giving tours to school groups which was totally something I had never imagined myself doing and I found it to be some of the most fun I'd have at that museum. There was just something really nice about those last few days of May walking those kids through the village and being asked if the same house was haunted by multiple groups. Also, the walk from the village to my post on the weekends was lovely. There was often a chill at the time of day. Tbh I miss being outside that much in the middle of nowhere woods of WI.
I went ghost hunting with some YouTubers (lmao) and also went ghost hunting at the Sheboygan Asylum last summer, meeting one of my role models, Adam Berry. I am going to be meeting the Newkirks on the 30th birthday this year. I'll be going to two of their shows in a row lmao
I also had a really weird ghost experience at the Congress Hotel in Chicago and spent the rest of that week sleeping with the light on there. 10/10 would do again. Oh, and during that same week I fell in love with a painting at the art institute.
Knitted two sweaters this February. I hadn't finished anything so big yet and managed to make 2 sweaters that are really fucking comfy and warm.
I am OBSESSED with nail polish now. Also still obsessed with Indycar and shitty 70's horror movies.
My best friend moved to WA last year. I've since visited 2 times and will be going back in November. We went to Seattle this past May and I think I may move there one day. I'm not sure. I saw that they have a museum graduate program so!!
I am still in school. I'm taking a semester off after a really shitty experience last semester. It's a long story, but in the end, I ended up with a new advisor who seems to really be helping and deciding the best thing was to take the semester off.
Finally saw 5sos without the fucking chainsmokers headlining lmao. one of the best concerts hands down tbh.
I'm unsure if there is anything else because this is the really short version of the last 2 years. Still heartbroken. Still full of rage. Probably a witch. Still in love with Jay Bauman and other virgos. Idk what else to say guys lol
