So. The move went well - long, but well. I honestly feel more at home up here, in small-town America, than I ever did back in Colorado. I hope I can stay here for a while, and recharge myself. If I get the job I want though, in a while we're probably going to move down to Redmond. Yes, that Redmond.
However. I have totally blown out my left shoulder. It would have to be that one [I'm a lefty]. I can barely move it, and, in fact, it's why I'm up at such an ungodly hour. Thing is, the doctor's don't know what I did. The X-Rays were normal, the MRI was normal. So now they're probably thinking it's all in my head and I'm drug seeking. Which I'm not, thanks. The only reason I'm taking the vicodin at all is so I can get a modicum of sleep every night.
I have another appointment on Wednesday with a new doctor. This one has a special background in Rheumatology, and so if this is somehow connected with my fibro, she should be able to help. I'm also looking for some refills and a referral to a shrink.
IN OTHER NEWS:
First: I'm going to be making a quilt! It's a very simple pattern, just 2 1/2" strips sewn together and made into blocks. I like it a lot, and we chose the fabrics yesterday. There are a lot of... erm, shall we say, shiny fabrics in there. :D
Second: I'm doing National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. The goal is to write a 50,000 word novel [or more!] in the month of November. I've tried it before, when I was working at Dish the first time, and failed spectacularly. Now, however, I'm over 30,000 words into it, making me well over goal. I think I can do it, I really do!
Third: Job hunting sucks, but at least I have backup if it takes too long. I'm really gunning to do what![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
thunderbird8 does - game testing for Nintendo. I know it's not all fun and games, but it seems like it'll be a better atmosphere than most of my other jobs have been. I had an orientation "first interview" there a week and a half ago, and now I'm just waiting to hear back to see if they want to do a second interview. And yes, still looking for jobs while I wait.

Apr. 11th, 2007 10:08 amSo, um, apparently I forgot about this here journal-thing. Ooops.
Life's been okay lately. I got moved to another housing unit at work and no longer have to work with this insanely crazy woman there who apparently thinks it's her duty to ream everyone a new one when they make any sort of mistake. Yeah, really happy with that move there.
Apartment = mine.
I had to buy a new car, since Bob died in a Smoky Ball of Death. I now am the proudowner person making payments on an '03 Silver Civic. Preeeeeeetty.
And now, because I'm feeling sick and stuff, I'm going back to bed so I can get up and be relatively coherent at work tonight.
*waves*
