Fundraising

1. Selling about 3/4 of my cd collection on half.com

2. Permission from dad to sell his shoe collection on ebay

3. Picking up loose change wherever found

4. Tuition refund should be disbursed automatically in October after the drop/add period. Should be.

5. Switching to part-time. Not exactly helping to raise funds, but will go a long way in raising levels of morale and sanity. Dad gave me his blessing to quit. He said stick it out for as long as you can, and then give your 2 weeks if you have enough to cover bills for the summer. Mom-mom gave me some money for "school expenses", and he said I could use that for the summer, but I'm not sure yet. Just...sick of standing for 8 hours a night when I could be spending time with people I love or doing one of the 10,000 important things I need to do or sitting outside/swimming because it's gorgeous out. It's summertime, people.

6. Thinking about pawning some of mom's jewelry (i.e, wedding/engagement rings, another ring from my dad...things she gave me that don't fit and that I secretly think are bad luck).

7. Yard sale?

8. I'm in the process now of just sorting things out. What I'm taking vs. What I'm not taking.

9. Can't view student employment opportunities till they give me an email address. Thinking about getting in with a temp agency after I move. If I only have 2 classes a semester, I could probably swing full-time and still have time to work on my poetry. I'm thinking regular pay and benefits. But who knows, really.


Miscellaneous

1. I watched some of CBS Sunday Morning yesterday. They did a segment on Bob and Ziggy Marley. Spent the rest of the day with "Could this be love" stuck in my head. Ad's friend Zee reminds me vaguely of Bob Marley.

2. Forgot to request off for Boston. Forgot/thought it was a week further away than it really is. The request was due yesterday (but I called out to see my family). I'm hoping I can still get it in today. There's no way I can miss this trip. It's absolutely out of the question. So...I'll quit if I have to. (I think I'm just looking for an excuse at this point.) (Also, I increasingly hope to be fired, though I don't really give them a reason to fire to me other than I consistently show up 3-5 minutes late.)

3. I turned the cartoon dad on the father's day card I bought into a crossdresser.

4. I think I need a new dresser. The one I have is way too big for an apartment. The one I used in Ambler has a couple broken drawers. The one at my mom's makes my clothes smell weird. Like wood chips and animal.

5. Dabbling with veganism. It's freakin' expensive. So I switched to soymilk. It's actually really good and doesn't expire as quickly as milk. Baby steps.
