Slighty Distracting: 158

So yeah I know it's been a little over 2 weeks but at least I'm being consistent since last time had also been about 2 weeks. :P Baby steps...baby steps. I would have maybe posted within the first week but my depression decided to hit at the exact same time as my time of the month, so mood swings were a nightmare. I was an angry little cactus all that week and all the next week too. Didn't help that I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, so I spent most of it in my room when I wasn't at work or class.

Luckily I managed to work through it myself. I suppose talking to someone might have helped but I've been more hesitant in the past few months about getting close to people like that. When it becomes a problem I'll deal with it then. :P
Speaking of work, I've been getting busy it more too. Might get a transfer again to a busier location. Not sure how I feel about it yet or if I'll take it. The location is in complete disarray. I know my cleaning abilities would be appreciated most there but it's also in a crappier area. But I'll get more hours and pay. Just not sure how much my sanity is worth yet.
I changed my hair! Currently sporting my natural brown color and I have bangs now. I've received all positive reactions so I think they'll stay for a while. I'm really happy with them, though it's weird since I haven't had bangs since high school. They do make me feel more smexy though, and that's what's important right? XD

My social life has also been demanding attention. Been meeting a lot of people off this dating site I've been on; not really for dating or relationships but for expanding my friend base and network. So far I've made a couple of really great friends off there. What's interesting is I'm able to see who visits my profile and since I've posted a new picture of my bangs I've been getting popular to the point of amusing. Used to be 20-30 visitors...

Obviously I've also gone on a few dates. Some of the guys are nice but since I'm not looking for a relationship from anyone I don't really see them as more than good friends right now. Luckily I was smart and specified what I was looking for in my profile, so they do know this. Most of them are also just looking for friendships too, but a few you can still tell are hoping for more. It is what it is I guess. Not much I can do about it.

Regardless I had an interesting day last Friday. The day started with my co-worker calling me saying he can't get into the store. So I travel down there to find my keys don't work either. We spent the next 2 hours with a locksmith breaking into our store by drilling out the lock's core. It was amusing. I got home with enough time to shower and leave for a date. Date went fine. He was pretty cool and turns out he's also doing the Insanity program too, so we had stuff to talk about. It was on the way back to our cars, however, that I realized I didn't have my keys...

While I wasn't very happy to see that my day was just becoming filled with me breaking into things I have to say that a man gets major points when he can jimmy into my car with just a coat hanger and screwdriver. Lol! My keys were returned safe and sound.

Aside from that, which was still fun and makes for a grand adventure story later, I enjoyed myself. I then went out with a different guy to my very first Irish Fest, a few days later. That was tons of fun. We explored, saw my friend Dante, ate shepherd's pie, drank mead, I found a pendant of my Scottish clan, and he got me a mood ring. :D Now he texts me occasionally to ask me what color I am. :) In case you're wondering I'm currently dark purple, which supposedly means very happy.

At the beginning of the previous week, before all this, I went to a going away party for one of my great friends Tati. At the end of last week I went out with some good work friends to the bar, and my friend Miri joined me since she's moving soon and we needed to hang out. As you can see my time has been busy-busy. @_@ I was most pleased to have a day to myself today, after my cleaning was done first...though Ben did not help make things easier.

Currently we're all watching random stuff for our weekly movie/anime night. Tonight has been filled with Conan, Expendables, How to Train Your Dragon, and Tintin. :) My head hurts though cause I ran up the stairs at one point and tripped right at the top. My forehead hit the edge of the wooden stair and now I have a bruise and huge bump there. :( Good thing the bangs cover it up....another good use for them. At one point I was trying to figure out a rubix cube but I gave up after getting one side, and apparently Ben said I was making weird concentration noises.
