Quick update

Life has been purely crazy the last few days. I can't believe I have let this slip by the wayside. Well I am almost done with house sitting which will be nice. It was truly nice to have a car which scares me because I never want to love having a car, I think I need to have a long date with my bike. I don't know if this long distance relationship we are having is going to work out after all. She's going to have to move up here. Also the dog that I am watching has started to breath weirdly, I feel like she's going to croak at anytime. And she gets me up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom but nothing as bad as the puppy from hell. But all in all it was a nice break to have a house to myself.

Lets see on Saturday I went on a date with a drag king. yep I don't think I need to give details that should explain it all. It was nice, we danced and people watched. I also had my first ever....wait for it wait for it....jello shot. yay for me, well not really. It wasn't too tasty but free. As a JV I have learned one thing and that if it's free then you should take advantage of it.

Oh and as everyone knows I have been discerning another year of JVC. So I had the interview with the placement and it went amazing. She loved me, I loved her it was like love at first sight. The job sounds amazing exactly what I want, the city sounds amazing exactly what I want....so tomorrow I will let them know of my decision to not do a second year. I know you might be confused because why would I deny a second year if I love the job and the city. Well because I wouldn't be doing a second year of JVC with a full heart, I don't really want to live in community but would have done it if it got me to Portland. But I have too much respect for JVC to do that and I wouldn't want to live with someone who was only partly into it so I have decided to stay here in Anchorage for another year or so. I hope to find a job, maybe save some money, and if the yearning to live in Portland is still there then in a year I will move there and it will be just as exciting and special.

This week has been kinda long already and it's only Wednesday. My supervisor is on vacation for a week so it's just me and Annie, another JV. Oh sidenote on Friday I hear Annie arguing with someone over the mail. Now this already is out of the ordinary because I have never seen Annie argue or raise her voice. Well it all ends with the lady hitting Annie in the face, so yea be careful beanies are protective about their mail. I think I need to sharpen my reflexes. But back to the long week, thankfully our house is having a get together of friends on Friday. It's called "The Break Up Shake Up" because Alaska has two seasons, freeze up and break up and it's almost time for break up so we are going to start it a little early with a party. My hope is that someone brings the beer "session" because under the cap it has either a rock, paper, or scissors and then you play the game when you open your beer. ooh perfect timing now it's time to drop some beanies off at the hospital and maybe have enough time for coffee.
