i am doing TOO MUCH for a dumb bitch with no job!!

[averagehighlife]

I’ve been doing a lot more skiing and snowboarding over climbing and it’s been a ton of fun. It’s been absolutely dumping here in Salt Lake City so I’ve been taking advantage of that while I’m still funemployed lol. This is the least consistent I’ve been with climbing and it honestly feels pretty good to slow things down and take a mini break. Being on the mountain has been great for my mental health these days and I’m grateful that I now live in a place where it’s so accessible

today is day 1 of unemployment. my last day was on Friday. a half hour before clocking off, my replacement had a major temper tantrum and was so! rude! to me - i couldn't believe it. i had such a good day too so it was a shame that it had to end that way. *BUT* it's over. not my problem. and i'm done.

over the weekend, B and i signed a lease for a townhouse up in Arlington. the only bummer is that it's a 6 month lease (the owner plans on moving back into the townhouse around that time) but we are so happy to have found something. between owning an "aggressive/dangerous breed" dog, lacking American rental history, and short American career history - we were seriously stressing that we would ever be able to find a place. move-in date is April 15th so it'll be a little under a month more of hotel-living for B.

tomorrow i'll be taking Kona to a vet that specializes in oncology. they were able to fit us in pretty quickly which is nice. i'm expecting they will suggest a CT scan (which we'd like to do) but i'm nervous about what else they may find. only time will tell. luckily, Kona has been acting normal so the last week or so i've been feeling much less ~emotional~ about everything. i imagine tomorrow may change that.

anyway.

goals for this period of unemployment:

go through & organize all of my stuff currently stored at my parents' house

update my resume

start focusing on my health/ideally lose some weight via calorie counting and meal planning

run 3x week, try weight training 1x week?

maybe try writing for fun again?

a tentative list for now, but i'm hoping to be posting more often!

how i spent an unemployed wednesday

it's very cold outside, on fourth and sixth at least, and the day winds down as i barely get up from bed though i have been awake for hours. i have gone to the gym, eaten two slices of pizza and some protein bars and i drank half a two liter bottle of coke zero. the markets have been slow today but i finished on top. the markets are closed now and i can finally relax. i read of mice and men in a single sitting, not counting the break for masturbation and just now, took two hits of dank sativa - i'm doing dry january. it's four fifty five pm and i finally sit at my desk, in my warm room, warm form the heaters, and the THC rushing through my brain, warm from the gym earlier in the day, and warm from knowing that if i died right now i'd die happy. it's been a wonderful day. a great book can do that. and now i must go take a shit because i've been holding it in for long enough.
