Monday was fine, but Tuesday was STAAR testing and I had to be Proctor B. While not as boring as being proctor A, my feet hurt and my back hurt and it was ALL DAY. I'm just glad it's over honestly. I'm sure everyone else feels the same way. If you enjoy standardized testing then there is probably something medically wrong with you. Just sayin'.
I also had a Comedy Sportz match last night that went from 5-930 and while that was long and I was tired, the match was amazing and i'm so glad we had enough kids to go and we didn't have to cancel because of UIL stuff. I also really got along with their sponsor and that was pretty cool. It also was a pretty good pick me up because damn making friends as an adult is freaking hard y'all! Outside of co-workers, there's not much room for making friends when you're a layabout like I am. I don't party, I don't do clubs, i'm not in an "activity" outside of going to the dog park and even that isn't happening lately. Basically i've been a lazy bum and I should probably take a class or something because i've started to believe i'm the only 20-something in this town who is interested in things besides cross walls and The Eli Young Band. I mean, if only I had a 'Live, Laugh, Love' plaque in kitchen! I'd have so many friends!
Seriously i've been so mopey about that lately! I see all these younger people in this town with their likeminded non-denominational, rhine-stoned friends and I want that! Except with unshaved legs and a penchant for marxism or something (even though I just can't reconcile that whole 'violent revolution' thing. That's my qualm)
I basically want Austin but in Katy where I have well paying job and a supportive administration and great co-workers. Like I love my professional life but dang is my personal life boring. My closest friends are in some cases people i've never met and while that's fine, it's getting annoying only having one friend to go do things with and when that friend is married with a child, it makes planning hard sometimes.
I'm just glad my sister and I are so close. Like physically, she lives around the corner from me. It's great. She also is a student at my school and is pretty much down to hang all the time, unless she has AP homework of course. But she graduates next year and after that i'm SOL.
I need friends my age who are also raging intersectional feminists. Bring them to me. I need conversations!
Welp. That's my week. Today I had nothing after school except a hang out with that one friend I made since I graduated. And we had delicious macarons and cupcakes and I played with said baby (I have TERRIBLE baby fever right now and i'm thanking my birth control like crazy), then I came home and literally did nothing. I started the dishwasher and we had cereal for dinner. I could not muster enough emotional strength to clean things. Tomorrow is another csz match that'll keep me out all evening. I'm just ready for the weekend and our (well, my rare) trip to church! Headscarf time y'all!
I feel like I should have a sign off or something cute but instead you just get this.
Goodnight and good luck. (ripping off a classic)
