I has a job!!
I started work as a Web Designer at a company on Tuesday after the Memorial Day holiday and it’s been an interesting week. I’ve met a lot of new people and promptly forgotten most of their names. I was given a shiny new 27″ monitor and ordered a new Macbook Pro. I was given almost all the information I could have asked for to make the website happen. I got access to all the social media pages. And I’ve basically finished the redesign of the home page already. So things are going pretty great.
Also, life at home has been pretty awesome. When my roommate is actually home, we have neat conversations about stuff and watch Game of Thrones sometimes. When Sam and I hang out, I genuinely feel better about life and that because I have dealt with all the bad things in my life up to this point, I feel like it’s finally turning around. Sam and I built a PC for me this weekend too and I’ve been customizing it and playing some games on Steam. I’ve started dieting more and have lost about 4 pounds already. Thomas has been less of a dickish cat than he usually is, so that’s cool too.
So yeah, things are just coming up me right now. I’m hoping it lasts for awhile this time. Huzzah.

I lost my job a little over a month ago. I’ve been on the hunt for a new one ever since but am still unemployed unfortunately. I’ve had a few bites here and there but nothing solid until recently. But I still haven’t heard back from the most recent interview so I’m worried I didn’t get it. Friends and family are telling me to stay positive so I’m trying. It’s just hard sometimes.
Sam has been very supportive of me in this time and that has helped me immensely. He’s been supporting me emotionally and mentally. Along with providing many needed hugs over the past month. Sam really has kept me going during this time.
I haven’t just been sitting around doing nothing though. After about a week of moping I hit the books hard. I’ve been trying to learn and train with web development stuffs. I’ve touched on Sass and JavaScript as well as training up a bit in Bootstrap, WordPress, HTML, and CSS. I figure the least I can do during my “downtime” is better myself. While I should also be eating better and going to the gym to exercise more, I find that learning is probably the better option. If I learn more then I might get a job faster. I hope.
Fingers crossed that I’ll find something good soon…

I think I’ll stop doing these weekly updates except for actual weight loss updates, since I keep forgetting to do them anyway. Heh.

Tuesday I was on diet and took Thomas to the vet for the first time in too long. About 2 years or so. He did really well and everything went great. He’s very healthy, they said. And at his size, 14.5 pounds isn’t fat. He’s apparently just a very big kitty. Wow.
