I noticed that I recently paid for another 3 months on this site, and I haven't been on this site in weeks if not months. A shame because I really enjoy this site and the people I've met here. I just don't get online regularly anymore, but I'm going to try and catch up on what's been going on with my friends here and keep everyone updated on what's going on with me on my blog.
I've held my current job for well over a year- quite an accomplishment for someone who was unemployed for the 2 years prior to getting hired at my current job. I really don't have to worry about losing the job, either- which is a relief. In the last two jobs I had there was an overwhelming attitude of employees being commodities, not people. You always knew you were very replaceable at these companies. Job security is hard to come by, but right now I'm as close to that as I'm ever likely to get. There are good days and bad days, like any job, and some co-workers that drive me crazy and others I wish I worked with more. I'm planning on sticking around for at least another year if possible with this company.
I've recently gone back on anti-depressants- not because my depression symptoms have returned (although I'm still battling insomnia) but as a preventative measure in case I have a recurrence. I'm getting out more- always a challenge for someone who's awake all night in a town where everything shuts down at midnight
Although I was saddened to lose my last boyfriend- and yes, I was the dumpee- I've moved on. I've got a new guy... not sure if it's going anywhere, but right now I'm just having fun getting to know him. I've made new friends- but I still rarely do a bar-crawl with anyone on the weekends anymore. I guess that whole scene really doesn't interest me anymore. I used to do that every weekend with my old friends and my ex- but now I'm happy taking my brother to the newest action movie, scouring thrift shops with my girlfriends, and just hanging out at my guy's place eating pizza and watching TV. All pretty low-key, really. I've also busted out of my t-shirt and jeans rut in fashion, too. I'm wearing things with considerably more edge. My Aunt was a bit surprised by the change and took lots of pictures of me in my different outfits to capture my "Goth queenliness" as she put it the last time she came down to visit. LOL. Although I have yet to bust out the black lipstick. Violet and fire engine red lipstick, though- absolutely!

I'm alive!!
I've been fairly absent from SG for a few months, so I apologize for not commenting on your last entry.
And I'm sorry I never replied to your last email. That's totally my fault, and I have no good excuse for it either.
Sorry you got dumped. How's the current guy?
I'm glad you still have the goal of returning to school. Yeah, I know I can be a pain about pestering you to go back to school.
Glad you're on anti-depressants. I mean, if they're doing good, then that's great.
Please share some pictures of the Goth you. I'd love to see them.
HUGS!
