It's Friday Eve and laundry night. Roommate's can of spray stain remover (want a tough stain out?) triggered a Tears For Fears tape loop in my brain. Love the song, but this is one item on the long laundry list of things I could do without.
The soon-to-be-former roommate has given notice with our apartment management, and now begins the process of finding a new 'mate. I'm resolving to be clearer on the "no couples" thing. It's not that I mind a dude having his lady over, but I'm not set up to have a couple moving in. There just isn't room.
I am coming up on six months at the job, and while it has not been without hiccups, overall I think it's going well. The biggest thing by far has been going back to working in the office. Whether I stay on or move on, it's been a great experience, and one that I can build on.
A friend from the local Party chapter came by to pick up an elephant-emblazoned sign for an event she's doing. I'd been keeping the sign in my apartment since the end of the Farmers' Market season, when I was tabling on Sundays at the local Market. "Tell 'em Team Red is alive and well in Oregon!" I told her and she laughed and agreed. I mentioned to her that I no longer have every other Friday off (this was a perk of my last gig, which was work-from-home) and said that while I missed the free Fridays, I was glad to be back in the office. She emphatically nodded agreement. "Humans weren't meant to be siloed in our homes," she said.
December impends with a host of uncertainties (housing, work) but I am ready to meet whatever life throws my way.
