sadlikeknivesI just fail hardcore at updating!
Ummm...let's see. Finished my internship, back at my parents', still unemployed, but some of the library hiring freezes seem to begin to be lifting, which will improve my chances exponentially.
I really, really loved what I was doing at my internship, but basically I need a doctorate to actually work there, which has me threatening to go back to grad school, which has my parents less than thrilled. Which, whatever, they wouldn't be paying for it, but I need to make up my mind in around the next twelve minutes if I'm going to apply for next fall.
My supervisors managed to get us interns invited to a reception in a couple of weeks for the exhibit we were working on all summer, mostly as a nice gesture since all but one of us don't live in the area, but since I'm still unemployed and I have some money socked back, I'm thinking of going up to DC for a couple of days to see the culmination of all that hard work and do a couple of the touristy things I was too busy to do while I was living there. Obviously I need to make my mind up in the next five minutes on that, too.
I've been cooking a lot (and, when not cooking, eating my mom's cooking) and making a bunch of ice cream, and yet somehow not only have I not gained back the ten pounds I lost over the summer, I've lost another five. And now that I've said something about it I'm probably going to jinx it.
I watched the first episode of Vampire Diaries, wept for my tweenhood memories, and don't plan to watch it again. That is not Vampire Diaries, that is a Twilight/True Blood/tweeness hybrid with people called Salvatore in. I particularly liked how the woods of Virginia look just like British Columbia.
Right now my grandmother's in the hospital. She had an infection in her arm, which she went to the ER for Saturday morning, then she wound up back in the ER after passing out Saturday afternoon--the diagnosis for which turned out to be, "Turns out you can pass out if you haven't eaten all day and you've been given a ton of medicine, who knew?" but the hospital kept her just in case, and to get the infection cleared up. Then today she was supposed to come home and her knee suddenly swelled up, so now they're trying to figure that out. Fingers crossed it's nothing major.
That's about it. I've been pretty boring, actually. No wonder I hadn't updated, sheesh.
