I just found a listing for a position at the Smithsonian NASM (National Air and Space Museum) as a Supervisory Exhibits Technology Specialist making a minimum of $89,033/year. Job Description? Overseeing the installation and maintance of some of the most state-of-the-art shit you’ve ever seen.
The career field I’ve chosen is sounding more awesome every day.

yesterday (and onward)
like today, it got all the way into the 40’s! robbie and i felt compelled to go on a very long walk to enjoy the weather. the same might occur today once we start the laundry. no one is left in our apartment complex- there are only three cars parked in the front lot. i doubt we’ll have to fight over the machines today. robbie is making a lentil loaf with the delicious vegan gravy he...
looks like we're having our civil marriage party...
who wants to come?
today i realized
i nearly made the argument “but i’m a transquestioning queer in a non-heteronormative relationship, how can what i say be homophobic and ciscentric?” have i gone on too long occupying the “educated queer” box? clearly i have some learning to do, especially before i actually start posting previously discussed comic and not yet discussed writing stints. there is a great...

did i post on this already? well, here it is anyway. in regards to lotr, i’ve been thinking about how, as much as i’m a fan of bromance and subtle homosexual undertones (or more than subtle), i really feel it’s important that lotr remain a story of a strong, hetero, cismale friendship. aside…

tying the knot
my dependency is officially ending once taxes are filed this spring. we are going to sign some papers this summer.
i want to go to art school. school seems to be the only way i get better at anything and acquire new skill sets. i should start a doodle a week and slowly move it up to a doodle a day. gives you all something to look at other than letters since mobile uploads are apparently hard for me to do now.

guess i better go sing some karaoke.
the sun just set. it’s 25 degrees and dropping. the trees are all covered in white frost and it looks like it’s going to snow again. on that note, i’m going to get ready to go pick up our pizzas downtown, do some paperwork planning for the shipment i have to work on this wednesday while drinking coffee, and probably knitting my socks while robbie studies for finals.
i think i like my job because i get brief challenges that i have met with great success (up until now and hopefully will forever), which then pleases my supervisors and i get rewarded. it’s simple things that mean little in the grand scheme, but i work out a solution and i get to do it again and again multiple times a week.
retail is like one big puzzle. and i love puzzles.
I've got the 1st 2 episodes of Series 6 Doctor Who...

I NEED THEM TO DOWNLOAD FASTER.
i need all of season six. all of it. we still have seen none of it.
today
-still can’t get this sewing machine to work (i weep). i’m going to have to take it to a repair shop. the bobbin thread keeps getting tangled because the machine’s timing is off (top stitches are FINE however UGH).
-finally one of us gets paid tomorrow (yay food!) and then again on friday.
-made my first tiny tire payment yesterday. need to make another one after i get paid so...
