Poor as churchmice, but happy as clams (and almost as clichéd)
Hi everyone. Today I get to write more, because I'm at the ODU library, and they have no time limit (hallelujah!).
Life is pretty good, aside from a general lack of money.
Sarah donated plasma today, so we had a little bit, most of which got spent on dinner and candy. I feel kind of guilty...like I'm using blood money or something...Oh well. We both get paid on Friday, so things should improve. Unfortunately, I have a (really old) library fine and a student loan payment to make, so I'll still be pretty poor. Luckily, I & A has asked me to work dayshift for a week, so I'll be getting more hours on the check after next.
Still looking into the job at the chicken place, but with everything up in the air at I &A, and the possibility of switching to days, I'd like to wait a bit. We'll see what happens.
Also, I wrote an email to my parents, telling them about the relationship w/ Sarah. They weren't particularly pleased, but I'm hoping that they'll learn to deal with it.
Overall, I'm insanely happy. I have a wonderful girlfriend, a decent job, a fabulous girlfriend, a nice apartment, have I mentioned that I really love my girlfriend? Yeah, I'm that besotted. *grin*
Our friend Joel from work says that we're a "very saccharine" couple. It's kind of amazing to me that I'm part of a sickeningly cute couple, but I guess I am...it's way more fun than I thought it would be *big grin*
