The last week has been lovely and the drama in my life is calming down. Sure, my life is not completely drama-free, but it seems as if the pieces that I choose to spend most of my time with are finally starting to agree with me.

Work: The tourist season is picking up again, and I am not ready for the season to start. I was finally finding ways to entertain myself with all the down time, but now the phones seem to be ringing off the hook. The place of doom (the hotel I work for) was becoming a bit more calm and now it is a raging chamber of craziness yet again. I suppose that working in a hotel for yet another tourist season will give me more blogging material, but I really doubt that the stress level (and terrible pay) is really worth staying there. So, with much debate with myself I have decided that I am finding myself another place of employment. I am not sure where this place of employment will be, but it will happen. I spent much of yesturday (and this morning) refreshing my resume and pulling up some great letters of recommendation from highly respected people in the area. Now, my goal for next week is to begin pounding the pavement and find myself a new job. Ugh. Now I just have the task of figuring out where to look. Oh joy.

Home: I haven't been seeing much of my parents or the house lately. I really don't know if this is good or bad...but it seems to happen every summer--or atleast the last few. I think that for Mother's Day I will do a good deep cleaning of the house. My mother will probably enjoy that.'

Friends: I am sure that most of my friends have forgotten that I have exhisted--and fortunately for them I could really care less. I have had a falling out with my two closest friends and don't think I have the energy or desire to pick up the pieces and make things work between us. It seems that I put my heart and soul into these relationships and that I am the only one that actually cares if our friendship works between us. I am done worrying about it. If they want me in their lives then I will make the effort, but I am not going to lose any more sleep over it.

Social Life: Most of my social life has resorted to yoga classes and such--which I don't mind at all. I seem to love all the people I come accross at the Yoga Loft and am quite content there. Actually, the Yoga Loft (or now the comically named 'Yoga Love Studio') has become a staple in my life and I find that I am almost addicted to Yoga. This light and airy place is where I met infinityedge and now we even have a blog written about us (and the 2 other couples that have met there)--go read it.

Another staple in my social life has been spending a lot of time with my friend Peter (futantshadow ). That has been a lot of fun and will probably happen throughout the summer--and hopefully longer.

Christopher: Alright, so for all you people that have not been paying attention (or are just very unobservant) Christopher and I are dating (yes, he is known as infinityedge ). As the blog on the Yoga Loft site says, we 'went public' just recently and I have been enjoying every moment of it. He and I have been spending a lot of time together and it all brings a lot of smiles to my face--which make my cheeks hurt (in a good way). We have plans to visit the lovely Arcata/Eureka area the last week in May. Which we will hopefully get together with iliketiedye, tattooedjen , intrepid28 and some of Christopher's family. We are planining on leaving very early on Wednesday, May 28th to spend a short 3 day extravaganza---and then end it on the 30th so I can be back to work on the 31st. It shall be amazing; however, this makes it important that Christopher meets my parents before this (and I should probably spend more than two seconds meeting his...). My parents would never let me hear the end of it if I were to travel hundreds of miles with a guy they have never met. They also would not be too happy if my grandparents met my boyfriend before they did. I guess we will just have to bite the bullet and let him meet them, or rather let them give him a round of questions--which he has to remember that he doesn't have to answer anything they ask him!

Alright, so now I have ran out of steam and don't feel like writing much.

As always....

Peace, Bliss and Namaste.
