Getting laid off.

Getting laid off just a month shy of the end of my contract. Fun times.

Employer is trying to help people find new jobs though. So that's cool.

This was mainly just a shock to me. But I kinda saw it coming. Oh well.

Moving on. Been applying to jobs here and there. Former manager is trying to connect me to his teams. Trying to move from temp to vendor. Better pay, indefinite contract. That's cool. Though, I really want a job with benefits. It would be nice to have great health coverage. It would be nice to be able to afford the dentist and optometrist.

I lost my glasses, which I only got to use for half a year. Sadness. So I'm wearing my contacts and old glasses. Managed to scratch my right eye while wearing my contacts >_> Healed up now.

Blah. I figured I should update about something. Not much to say. My work life is my main concern right now. Still going out and having fun. But this job situation has gotten me worried a tiny bit. I have cushion money, just in case I don't get another job soon. But money runs out when you don't bring any in. I have plans set. Expensive plans. EDC is in two weeks. I bought a ticket to Nocturnal Wonderland, but now I'm selling that. Buying Beyond Wonderland Bay Area tickets tomorrow. Planning to buy Escape tickets when those come out because I want to celebrate my birthday. I want to continue raving. At least for the rest of this year. Shenanigans Year v. 2.0 haha. It must go on.

I think, after this year, I will definitely cut back on how much I spend for partying and raving. I want to start saving again. Well, saving more than I have been for the past year. So I'm gonna get all this rave fever out this year. Drain that energy (what little I have left). Then tone it down after this year ends. I kinda have plans for my future. Small ones. But I want to make them happen.

Goals: Move out of the house I currently live in by June 2016. Adopt a cat within the year after I move out. Move out of the Bay by the time I'm 28.

I guess I could add "get into a committed relationship" to that list. But eh. I've only dated one person. Still. I've been single for over four years now. Some friends think that's way too long to not be dating. I dunno. I've been interested in people over the years. But the interest wasn't reciprocated or didn't last very long. It happens. I want to connect with someone, but I don't want to force it. Really, I don't know what I want to happen.

Anyway, the rambling will stop now. Because I need to sleep and get up early for work, where I stand, type, and dance at my desk for eight hours. Fun times.
