Because I've literally been ghost for pretty much all of 2015.
I got into a car accident last Tuesday. Not my fault, but my beautiful Jem (yes, I named my car after the 80s cartoon) has some dents and scratches that need to be fixed. Hopefully dude's insurance is amazing, 'cause that needs to be fixed ASAPedly.
In the last month I've received 4 parking tickets (3 for $25 a pop, one for $15 which I am currently appealing, since it wasn't my fault) AND a $200 speeding ticket + 3 points on my license. When I say the skruggle is real...
I didn't really delve into it much on here, but I started a new job late January with Faculty Forward as an adjunct organizer. My job is to organize adjunct/contingent faculty throughout Florida (though we're based in Tampa/St Pete) into raising pay, gaining benefits and improving work conditions.
So a little bit more about how this came to be.
I went on a birthday cruise with my best friend Courtney from January 11th through the 18th. Prior to this, I had been unemployed for about 2 months. I resigned from my former employment because I was extremely unhappy, not to mention there was a lot of sheisty stuff going on that I wasn't cool with. So I left, not having any job lined up or anything. Just deuced. I was already searching for jobs before I left, but I finally got to a point where I was like, eff it. It was a risk, but I'm glad I took it (Now, that's not to say that for 2 months I did absolutely nothing. It just so happens that right around the time I officially became unemployed I got heavily involved with the Bay Area Activist Coalition- also known as the Bay Area SquaDD- doing Black Lives Matter things. This will come up later in another update). Anyways, back to January. I was on a cruise, living life like I had money coming in. Prior to leaving for the cruise, I got a heads up on some organizing positions with the Fight for $15 campaign. I sent in my resume and left. While on the cruise I got an email back asking for an interview, which I had to postpone because I was in flippin' Jamaica. Got the interview rescheduled for the Wednesday after I got back.
Cool.
I get back all rested and browned and queen-like... ready to return to real life. Had the interview with the Faculty Forward leads on Wednesday, got offered the job on Thursday, and officially started that next Monday. When I tell you I was going non-stop... It's been so crazy. In the month that I've been working on the ground organizing, I've met over 50 adjuncts, have had dozens of meaningful conversations... I really feel like the work I'm doing really means something. Like, I can tangibly see the progress that we are making here in Florida, and it's only been 1 month! I took a risk when I accepted this job- I had no idea I was even interviewing for Faculty Forward (which is affiliated with the Fight for $15 campaign) until I walked through the door. I stepped out on faith and received such a beautiful blessing... I love my job and my team. My last job, that was not the case- hell, I didn't even feel like I was on a team. And to now be a part of something that harnesses so much power through it's organizers and workers... the only word I can use to describe it is beautiful.
So, yeah! I'm happily employed and thus far loving my job. That's not to say that challenges haven't risen up and punched me in the face... quite the contrary. But I've been able to meet those challenges and apply the lessons learned to my daily walk as an organizer, thus making me a more efficient and effective one.
I've been involved with the Bay Area Activist Coalition (also known as BAAC, also known as Bay Area SquaDD, also known as the League of Extraordinary Revolutionaries... I made that last one up) since December of 2014, but the last two months has seen an increase in activity and involvement. This "job", in conjunction with my actual day job, has empowered me to levels I never knew I could reach... I am and have seriously gone through a transformation since being involved with BAAC. We are doing real work that really matters, and I absolutely love the dynamic of our SquaDD. This work is challenging me to be a better and more tactical organizer (which is what I aspire to be), and I am here for all of it. I'm so blessed to be able to have teammates like the ones I have... each respective relationship has brought a new element into my way of thinking and being, and I'm better for it.
I've been pretty M.I.A. with my family these last 2 months, which I think is a good thing. They're getting used to not seeing me as much, which will make it easier on them when I actually make this move within the next 2-3 months. But I do need to actively spend more time with them so they won't think I completely abandoned them. (SN on the fam- my family is so close-knit it can be suffocating at times... which is why I say it's a good thing.)
I'm planning to make the move to St Pete within the next 2-3 months. Woot.
I need to reassess my budget so that I can do all the things I want and need to do i.e. moving and such. I also need to re-prioritize, because I'm spending way too much money eating out.
I need to mend whatever this thing is going on between me and my oldest sister. I think she's going through withdrawals of me being gone so much... and I need to make things right. She's also stealing my cat Rory...
I need to schedule a weekly self-care day so I won't be out here looking reckless in these streets.
Leonard Nimoy passed away this Friday and I ain't been right since.
I have the bestest friends in the world. So blessed to have the women I have in my life. Nothing like having a community of strong, educated and driven Black women as close friends. SISTREN!
I finally got my piercing that I've been wanting since I saw Janet at the Super Bowl. Bless.
I need to set plans in motion to get my 3rd tat. Also need to sit down and decide if I'm really going to do this half sleeve or not.
I need to catch up on my reading challenge (7 books behind thus far). I've joined a book club and ain't even participating like I should. I've got to make time to read.
Also need to catch up on my shows. So so so behind.
I've just got to get myself together in general. And by that I mean get more organized physically, personally and professionally. Like, I gotta get my time management skills together. And my productivity together. Everything. Einh.
I need to set my queue up again so I can get rid of these 3,000 plus drafts (and that's not including what I have in my likes... yikes).
I'm growing more comfortable with the woman that I am, quirks and all, and I'm growing through my challenges and setbacks to become an even better me. I feel like I've said that a dozen times in this post, but einh, you'll deal.
There's been some interesting developments in my love life... Oh yeah, I actually have one now. Ta!
I've got so much that I need to buy with my next check, none of it absolutely life-or-death necessary, but nevertheless I need for reasons. Sweatshirts and shirts and things. I neeeeed it.
The last 2 months of 2015 have been amazing (even the days where I've had panic attacks and tears)... I claimed this year back in 2014 and lo and behold, everything that I spoke into existence is coming to fruition. So excited to live out the remainder of 2015, God willing.
