2 Posts a Small Cavalcade?

No, not really.

I meant to pre-load some more posts (that week’s BOaHCoD and thoughts on that Star Trek movie were to be included, amongst other things), but I never got back to work in time.

And I could not correctly guess the parental units’ wireless password.

But I survived my trip to Sunray. Huzzah. Another goal down.

On the Road Again

So, I’m hittin’ the road to see the folks way out in Sunray, Texas (I have no idea where it is either; that’s what the GPS is for). Blogging might be spotty (or at least spottier than normal) until Monday. I assume the parents have an interweb connection I can mooch off, but you can never be sure.

This starts a small cavalcade of pre-loaded posts, just in case.

Willie, take it away:

25 Things Update

I got me a part-time job that might lead to an actual career (and, no, it’s not at the Sizzler). The nature of the job is such that I am not going to talk about it here until I know one way or the other whether it is going to lead to an actual career.

The nature of the job is also such that, at least for this long semester, I will not be able to attend any “homegroup” on a regular basis.

I Spent Thousands of Dollars for a Master’s Degree…

…and all I got was a lousy piece of paper. No real career. No prestige. Not even a sheepskin. Just a piece of paper. It came in the mail yesterday. Which means I have now resolved yet another goal.

I’m thinking of photocopying both my pieces of paper and tacking them up on the wall at the counter. It might get me a better job or, at least, serve as a cautionary tale.

Not to be Confused with the Riddler…

…It’s the Griddler!

And I have one! So, my meat-cooking device goal has been met!

Quick 25 Things Update

Filled out an application over at a head hunter business. Hopefully something comes of that. If nothing else, I can hire them to do some intense marketing of myself in September.

I turned it the form to get my Master’s Degree piece of paper a couple of weeks ago.

And that’s it.

Sorry for the slow blogging day. Nothing piqued my interest. I might try and stick something up tonight, if no other plans spontaneously arise. Off to deposit the paycheck and go pay rent!

Well, That is One (Figurative) Monkey Off My Back…

…and I only have 20 some odd more to shake off.

Once my massive savings-bond fueled deposit and 18¢ transfer clears (I flipped the numbers in the cents…), I will have officially paid off my student loan. Huzzah. I’m calling that goal done.

Getting car insurance is on hold until September, when I will either have an actual career or the summer dry spell for work will be over.

I showed up to “The Abyss” (old church body segment homegroup) last night. I’m not ready to call that goal done yet because I need to reestablish the habit of showing up every week.

I have the form to get a new copy of my Master’s Degree. I just need to fill it out, turn it in, and wait 6-8 weeks.

I still need to invest in a bed frame (to go with the bed my mysterious benefactor gave to me) before I call that goal done.

I’ll be visiting the UNT career center next week to see about getting some career advice/guidance/leads, so we will see how that goes.

Oh, my new apartment is a little too small for a couch, so I am calling that goal failed (I’ll be 26 before the lease is up).

And that is it, as far as my progress report goes.

1 Goal Down…

…24 to go.

I got myself a Nintendo belt buckle. I can now reenact Captain N: The Gamemaster in my mind. Of course, I will have to use an actual gun instead of one of those Duck Hunt light guns, but the concept is the same.

I should also have car insurance on my own within the end of next week.

So, yes, I am making progress on my 25 Things Operation.
