So, alright.
[Edited] Didn't realize I had posted about my job already. It's gotten awesome now that I have my normal hours, and don't have to deal with Steve anymore, at least, on a regular basis. Overnight is freakin awesome.
July - Working at Wawa, what happens? An old black lady pins me BY THE KNEES to the back of an SUV. The SUV frees me and breaks the pump. No damage other than bone bruising which means a month of pain. And uh, more of the chronic pain. Fantastic! The structural part of my bad knee is in full health and fully intact, so there's no risk of me losing it anytime soon. In fact, my good knee was hurt worse than my bad one, because the construction of my bad knee is stronger than actual bone (which is COOL.) Started suit for worker's comp. Put a lockable door knob on my door to protect myself from the step-crazy.
August - The woman that hit me was a no-show to her court date. There's a bench warrant out for her arrest. She's not losing her liscense, yet, but she's paying some cash for what she did. And, if arrested, going to jail for a few days. She's lucky I didn't have the right car insurance to go after her for Pain and Suffering (I know, weird, but it's law.)
Step family goes more crazy. Fantastic. The way I see it, at the very least, they hate me. They don't hate my Dad half as much, so he'll still have access to see his grandkids. That's the important part, and I'm willing to take that blow for him.
Oh, also, I got an internship with an old professor of mine! I'll be working at WBGO Smooth Jazz in Newark in Sept. I'm excited, it should be fun.
Sept (what's happening) - Internship starts on the 7th. 3 days a week thereafter. On the 11th and 12th, Lell, Jerry, Jackie, Lou, Monica, Gabe, Tom and I are going on a NY Ren Faire trip overnight. Whoever's welcome to accompany us on the 12th to our day trip to the actual Faire. The 11th is reserved for private hangout with the group at the hotel. Sorry!
More plans? Next year I'm planning to head to Florida to persue my Master's in Game Design at Full Sail university. It's been my dream since I was... young, real young, to work on video games. I tried to get there once before, but was blocked by the parental "you can't afford it". Now they can't stop me. :3 I'm excited.
On a related note - I need to get the fuck out of my house. Yesterday. If anyone's looking for a roomie, or to get out, let me know. I should be getting a promotion at Wawa in Sept, which means more cash, and I can calculate out what I can afford. I want to be out by like, October. But anytime I can would be spectacular, really. This place... Isn't a home anymore. There is a darkness here, a dark and vile presence that makes this place unbearable to live at. And yes, I blame the females (former and current) of the household for bringing it here. My ancestral home has been corrupted, beyond redemption. It tears me up inside. But I know that I will do my best to honor my ancestors, and that should I ever get ownership of this place, I will tear it down and rebuild, making a home built on a foundation of virtues and honor, and most importantly, forgiveness. And I mean that both literally and figuratively. The darkness needs to be destroyed, the spirits that reside here need a new home, somewhere more light and more comfortable. Should this goal be unattainable, my honored ancestors are always welcome in my home, where ever it may be.
