JS from Lon­don is here vis­it­ing. We went out last night and drank it up. I don’t do that any­more, and I’m pay­ing for it. What­ever. I’m offi­cially unem­ployed now, so who cares? I even got my EDD paper­work in the mail yes­ter­day. That was fast.

I also got my Fit­Bit, and it’s pretty cool. It’s the cutest lit­tle thing, so small it could get lost, but it’s unob­tru­sive and fun. They have a great track­ing sys­tem that is per­sua­sive with­out being preachy. It makes me want to go walk 10,000 steps a day. That’s crazy talk.

I’m reg­is­tered for three classes in the fall term. Yay for me. I am step­ping things up a lit­tle to get this shit over with. I have been string­ing it along and it’s time to make it work. I just woke up, so my com­po­si­tion skills aren’t exactly warmed up, but I have a paper to write, so I needed to do some­thing. It should be a good term, and after this one, I think I have three classes left before I trans­fer out. I should hit the CSU in Fall 2011. Wow. That’s pretty damn awe­some. When I started this in Jan­u­ary, I thought I would be stuck at CCSF for another two or three years, but since I’ve made the com­mit­ment, it will be eas­ier. More work, less time, harder and eas­ier. Whatev. I can’t wait to study French all day every day. I can’t wait for an excuse to spend six months in France study­ing French with the French. I can’t wait for a chance to live and work there full time. Go Secret, go!

Looks like I’m gonna be work­ing for RJ again soon. I e-mailed them last week offer­ing my ser­vices, and they accepted the offer. I swore off being a con­trac­tor so many years ago, but this time, I have a more clear vision of what it’s all about, and even forc­ing myself to save half of what I earn for taxes only, I’ll be able to make it work and sur­vive in the city while I go to school. If this does turn out for me, I could do it all the way through school, so I can go full time, day classes and every­thing. It’s a win/win for all of us, really, so why not?

That’s all.
