Wow..has it been awhile or what?! Pretty ridiculous, I don't think anyone reads these..but just to be safe I'll give an update.
Reading my past entries gave me an idea of where I left off...so.
Work:: I worked an asston at the East Windsor Gamestop, managed to get a raise & become beloved by all my employees..apparently my customers too. Case in point, the other day (I was off shift) a customer came in with a bag full of horror dvds for me. She recalled I liked horror films & figured she'd give me...a whole fucking bag of 'em. WOw...surprising to say the least. Along with various phone calls from random folks saying how they come to my store because I'm "awesome & very helpful & just plain fun to talk to". As much as I love an ego boost, that's just crazy..praising phone calls for my job well done = odd.
Anywhos, I had my last day of work on November 5th, I've resigned from Gamestop (since they won't transfer me). I'm now unemployeed..whoopee!
Relationships:: My last posted stayed how pleased I was with my old man. Yea..that didn't end up too well. He's kinda..crazy & bipolar (no joke), so after way too much time of trying to work through it & him not giving a shit I just cut it loose. I was with him for 6months or so (that's..a very VERY long time for me) & it..took me awhile to get over it, still sucks but..hey that's life. I've become jaded & apathetic again since then. I don't care, at all. Especially about starting another commitment.
Friends:: Well Michael's still an elusive motherfucker. Luckily I don't care, as stated before. Gretchen's still my best friend, we have our tiffs but nothing major. Austins' still a cool cat who comes around quite often. And Chaz is still...a lameass so I see him rarely because..I'm a busy person & don't want to drive to Trenton after 9hrs of working. I've made friends with most of my employees & all of them have gotten me going away gifts, which..is really sweet & meant alot to me.
And with that said...
The Move:: I'll unfortunately be moving back down to SC in..actually a week. All I'm doing here in NJ is tredding water financially. I work so I can pay rent & have no time to excel my life in anyway. With that said, Mums & Dadu now have an enormous house with ass loads of room, so I'll be moving in with them; Free Rent. And seeing as mom works at the college; free school. How can I pass that up? I'll have no droogs again & far from Jill..but I've gotta make progress. I don't want to wake up one day working retail at 48 like Jennine, hating my life & wishing I'd done more.
So..that's where my lifes' at now. I should go pack..
Enjoy

Well 2week's ain't bad. Better then..what the 2-3months I procrastinated last time, eh?! So..what's happened. Um..give me a tic..something'll come to me.
I had my car fixed, costing me just shy of 500$. But..atleast it's fixed. I was also transferred from the Hamilton Gamestop to the East Windsor store. A 20min drive to a 3min drive. Awesome..totally fucking awesome, no more spending 30$ a week on gas! By transferring, I've become the only ASM at the store. Matter of fact, I'm the only management there other then the Store Manger. I've become second in command & what with the semi-submissive, nearly completely hated (though..I dont' hate her) role Jennine (manager) fills, I've become by default the ruler of the roost. It's..pretty spiffy in a egotistical way (that I don't really deal in). For the most part it's annoying, I don't want to take on all these hours & extreme amount of fixing problems from our lack-luster, inept employees.
BUT! Enough about work, let's not talk shop on my night off. Let's talk about..how's about my man & me. That's right, it went from this..grey zone; to an obvious relationship. It's cute, Gretchen's more elated about it then I am. Which is cute too..though very odd. It's a nice, & incredibly rare for me, feeling to be completely satisfied with a person.
Enough of that. Anywhos..my life's incredibly dull..so that's really all there is to say. Time to finish being a gluttonous pig & eat more cookies.

Well it's been a long time, no? There seems to be so much to update you on, & so little at the sametime. So..let's get started on that long-winded oxymoron.
Moved up from South Carolina (Bowels of the USA) back to NJ (Colon of the USA; Gotta love the colon) on the 29th of December as planned. All went fine, nothing really to report. Fast-Forward.
Moved into the apartment on the 30th or so, so a few days early. It was pretty nice, odd to sleep in a new place & try & think of it as "home". But we made do & now it fills the void nicely. We've certainly made the blank walls & hotel-esque styling much more us in the last month.
As far as jobs go: I worked at Larry's Gamestop in Bordentown (that's the one Jill works at) for a week as a Game Advisor (Grunt worker) & then was transferred back to the Hamilton store (the one I originated from) as an Assistant Store Manager. Bam boom! 40hrs a week 11$ an hour, benefits to come, paid holiday & all the other jazz that comes along with a full time management job.
So I've covered the move & the work situation in record time. Let's delve into..
My Granddad died on the 5th of Janurary (unfortunately the same day as my nephew's birth. Way to taint the kids day :/). Took off work & we 3 sisters in NJ, accompanied by our father (it was his dad who passed) who came up from SC went into Harrington Park for his service. That was a terrible time, as expected. I thought I'd maintain my composure & keep it together but when my dad started sobbing..well my valiant efforts were in vain. It was great seeing my Dad again though, even under these not so happy circumstances.
As far as droogs go? Still great with Gretchen, Austins around & about in our lives, as well as Jimmy. Michael's no where to be seen, whipped by his girlfriend no doubt. Saw Chaz again a few weeks ago, for the first time in months. Really nothing fancy, I'd say. As far as the folks I see on a regular basis & actually hang out with it's Gretchen, Axl, Jill/Eric (of course, roommates & all), & Larry. And that's more then fine with me.
OH YEA! I almost forgot. Crashed my car into a pole 3nights ago during that snow/ice storm. Yea, that was great fun. No, I'm not hurt (just sore & achy). No, my car's not trashed. It's just..got no driver side window or mirror..and the doors caved in (so it won't open). I feel like the Dude as I crawl through the passenger seat to get in & out though. ;)
Nothing says FUN like driving in 30degree weather doing 65 on RT130 with no driver side window. Life's a peach bab-ee. Anywhos, I've got work so..time to get the fuck off the computer & rambling about my incredibly un-amazing life to you 'vecks.
Have a good one tootsies.

Ahoy dearest droogs! It's amazing how a month can pass by & I still have so little to say. But, just so things don't get out of hand I'll update anyway.
( Fiserv )
BUT! No more Fiserv, ever again, done & done *dusts hands*. I'll be transferring my Gamestop job over to a New Jersey store. No clue which store, no clue what position..but atleast it's a job. Until, of course, I find a better one (or they promote me). Oh, and I didn't get that Inn job I mentioned. O WELL.
Jill, Eric, & I did get that apartment though!! Fucking...awesome. So happy...no more South Carolina *swells with joy*. We'll be moving in on the 1st of January. I can't wait to be back with my droogs. Waking up & talking with Jill, which yes..I do now. But the big differences are 1. I'll be waking up at a normal hour! (not 9PM) & It'll be talking in person! NOT ON THE TELE!!! *gasp*. Jawsome. Seeing Gretchen & Mike & The other various local NJ droogs. Actually seeing Larry outside of work for fucking once.
It'll be great. I leave for NJ this Saturday (the 29th). After planning it &..replanning it, it's come down to Dadu, Mums, & I all drive up to NJ. I'll just stay at the Glitz's till Tuesday when we can get in our apartment. I'll be so happy to shed this lack-luster, depressing, & lonely shell of a life & reestablishing my life in New Jersey.
That's...actually it of the news. Yes, I'm moving. Yes, I love my droogs & can't wait to see them. No, I have no clue about work. No, that doesn't overly worry me (not at this exact moment atleast).
I've got..another 20hrs to be awake, to fix my sleep schedule. I figured updating would be a great way to waste some time. Since 90% of my things are packed up, I don't have many options, so..that's a bummer. Anywhos, time to shower.
See ya, my dears

Well Jillian & Eric left a few days ago ..around the 21st I do believe. I've returned to my crappy South Carolina life. Working Fiserv & Gamestop, sleeping odd hours, not having droogs..you know, the usual.
**News on Fiserv: Looks like we won't be receiving a differential (a normal thing to get when you work 3rd shift). But who the fuck knows? The job's had.. what nearly 3months now & no word of a differential yet, but..then again we still haven't' received our badges either. So who really knows? Still a bummer..
**I put in an application at the Newberry Inn as a desk clerk. Hopefully I'll get that job. Then I can work 3 jobs (awesome!) & build up a sizable amount of cash. If (its' a big if) that job pays really well with good hours, I might even quit Fiserv. The whole..wacky sleep schedule is really depressing me. I've got to take my health (even just mental) into consideration. I'll be calling the Inn on Monday/Tuesday to hear what's up. So that's on hold till then.
**Jill & Eric put our application in for the Wyndbrook West apt in East Windsor/Hightstown NJ. It was on a "first come first serve" deal, and apparently we were first to put our app. in. So there's no reason we should be denied. Official word back on Monday/Tuesday. I guess this is on hold now too.
**I've spoken to my Gamestop authorities/droogs & it seems a promotion (atleast as far as ASM) isn't likely. That's..a big deal & greatly effects my idea/plans on living in NJ. I would have made around 11/hr with about..35-40hrs a week. Now..it's looking like 7.50-8.50 with part time hours (so..around 20-30hrs). Big difference eh? It's greatly discouraging, but...I'll make it work.
Either keep the Gamestop job & scrap by as I wait for an ASM position to open up. Or..keep the job at Gamestop till I find something better. Both are do-able options, it's just not as easy as I thought it'd be.
***I'm looking forward to Tuesday, just knowing about the Inn & the apartment'll be great. Being out of here (Newberry SC) by Jan will be awesome, even if I am signing myself into tons of work, paying bills, living on my own, & so on for atleast a year. In the last few months I've been dragged kicking & screaming from my comfort zone, might as well peg this onto it, eh?
Fastforward to Tuesday, NOW

Haven't posted in awhile..lots went on I suppose. Actually..let me check my last post & SEE! Well I did indeed end up going to NJ on October 29th. The train ride wasn't too bad, only delayed about 45min. I actually enjoy train rides, they're peaceful for the most part, easy, & the trains movement is nice & lulling. Other then the sitting in the same position for 10+hrs it's just fine. (a problem easily solved if I were sitting with someone I'm comfortable with, but..that won't be happening).

Leaving for my trip to NJ tomorrow morning, I'll be there from the 29th (Monday) till..well the week of the 12th, November that is. Included in this trip is the first session (of who knows how many) of my Ray Bradbury's "The Scythe" half sleeve.
Anywhos, I carved a pumpkin today for the first time in 3yrs..it was awesome.

One of my best droogs just told me he might have stomach/bowel cancer. I don't know what I'd do if he actually is diagnosed with it. I guess I'll try not to think about it till I hear the results.
Red (Jill's cat) just walked into my room, as I'm laying in bed with Dorian talking to folks online via the laptop. Anywhos, he walks in..right up to my westward facing windows...and sprayed all over the curtains. Right in front of me...
*dumbfounded slur of obsceneities*. What the fuck? Is he god damn fucking retarded or is he intentionally being a jackass. The fact that my box fan was sitting right near the scene of the crime only made the matter better. By blowing the lovely scent right on me.
This life of mine, I just wouldn't have it any other way.

Well it's been..what nearly 3weeks since my last update & I feel there's still nothing to say. Every day that passes is pretty much the same as the last. I hate my job at Gamestop even more then ever, luckily..I don't give a shit about it anymore. I don't do anything there unless I'm told to (which is a huge difference, I used to take pride in the way my store looked). Fi-servs alright, with exceptions of..I still haven't been paid, still haven't received my badge, still haven't received paperwork for payment (so..how are they thinking of paying me?!)
This'll sum things up easily
⇑ Fi-Serv is a do-able job with steady hours
⇓ Fi-Serv has completely fucked up any scrap of a "normal" sleep cycle I might have once had
⇓ I don't hang out with Franklin anymore (just at work) & I see the Mac's about..once or twice a week now, because of said work
⇑ I'm no closer to my $$ goal then I was 3weeks ago
⇓ My anxiety has been through the roof lately
⇓ It rained today, first time in 2weeks, & I left both car windows all the way down whilst I was at the store.
⇑ I sold my PS2 (since it was on the fritz) & made 77$
⇓ That $77.50 is all in Gamestop store credit
⇓ I realized the other day that I can't afford to buy the items needed for my Halloween Costume
⇓ I don't know what to go as now
⇓ Or even if I should go up to NJ for Halloween
⇑ Found a train that only takes 11hrs, instead of 13.5hrs
⇓ It's 2hrs drive to the station
⇓ Everytime I see Price I'm harassed because I'm from NJ
⇑ The boss said I was allowed to punch him, as long as it's off camera
Atleast I'm a totally awesome person, regardless of my geographical location

Haven't updated in awhile, I've also taken to not updating in my Deadjournal (which has been updated everyday for the last 3+yrs), guess I lost the motivation. So..what's going on in the mundane life of Jessie?! NOTHING haha..nah, I'll scrounge up a few tid bits.
Since coming home, (August..26th, I believe it was) I've been ..up & down. haha, not really one thing. First off, the train ride was pretty bad. It was supposed to be 13.5hrs, but turned into 15.5hrs what with the "traffic" (yea..traffic..you heard me). Got home & slept in my lovely bed..I've missed it. Dorian also attacked me with love, he very obviously missed me. *I used the word "attacked" for a reason*.
The Maccaroni's (The Macs for short; including my sister Deo, her husband Gino, & their 2yr old son Sean) arrived down in SC the week I had left for NJ. So coming back to SC I atleast was coming back to them, even if I'm short one Jillian. Hang out with them every few nights, we all need friends. Which is impossible to make down here, because we're all NJ assholes & everyones a southern polite piece of shit. *sigh*
Anywhos, I started working again at Gamestop, though..I only get 3hrs a week. Co-worker from there, Franklin, took to me (still the closest thing to a droog I have here, and its been nearly 2months) & decided he'd help me get a job, just like that. So paperwork, application, interview & bam I'm in the door at "Fi-Serv". I actually start work tonight, he was just hired last week too.
I'll be making 9.25/hr (remember, the min. wage in SC is 5.85/hr) & it's looking to go up soon. 5days a week, 5hrs a day (3:30am-8:30am) just cutting & boxing paper with Franklin. I hope it turns out as good as it sounds, atleast I'll be raking in the cash.
So, with one droog, 2 jobs, & no optimism for my future that brings me to the next topic. What's the plan for my future, afterall? I have no fucking clue. Last week I'd have told you, fuck NJ I'll stay in SC. But..upon talking to Larry (who made me feel like he could give a shit less about me, when I was up in NJ) & talking with Jillian more, I really do want to be back. I just don't know how to make it work.
I'll definitely be going back up in early/mid November. Since I have a tattoo appt. in PA for Nov. 9th (which I'm excited for). I'm not looking forward to staying at the Glitz's house again, but..take what you can get. Make the best of it, worse comes to worse I still arrive back in SC with a bitchin' half-sleeve, even if its not completely done.
What I do with all my free time? (that seems to be a reoccuring question). Seeing as I only work 4hrs a week (since Fiserv hasn't started yet); I read, watch movies or tv, zone out & think, or hang out with Franklin (which is usually just watching movies or talking), I also play more games, since I can get them free from Gamestop/work. I'm trying to make bamboo plugs, but the bamboos still not dry. I'm trying my hand at Stop Motion Filming. For the most part, to sum it all up, I try & waste time. Try & get through each day with as little "stop & think" time as possible, it only depresses me. All my droogs & my twin are up in NJ.
I think I covered the bases, it really doesn't matter overly. Oh, I colored my hair last night & stretched my septum to a 4g. Yea..that's about it. I'll try & update with little tidbits each few days, just so it doesn't lead to something like this.
See ya, fuckers

This can also be seen (with its sister "blog" post, on my myspace).
Due to popular demand (2people's request) I'm putting up photos of the house I'm living in. This is extremely picture heavy, and frankly not much fun..it's an ugly ranch house. What more needs to be said??
I'm also including a few shots of the kitty who keeps coming by the house at night. His name (given to him from Jillian & I) is Sebastian, and Red hates him.

Friday:: Woke up around noon & figured out plans. Jill arrived around 1:30pm & we had some food. Shortly after I started feeling sick, but by 2:15pm we were off to the train station to pick Shawnee up.
Straight over to the mall, despite my ailments. Dawdling in Old Navy & I felt too sick, so I went & sat down outside as they wasted more time. FINALLY got back to the Glitz' by 3:45pm, I just laid in bed since I felt like crap. They lingered around & then Shawnee left. Jill sat around with me as I finished Let's Go To Prison, then came Elf & she left in the middle of that.
I put on Liar, Liar & by 5:30 I was feeling better. Watched half of Gozu & then Hot Fuzz again & fell asleep..sometime?
Saturday:: Woke up around 1pm. Laid in bed & watched the rest of Gozu. Then put on Little Monsters & THEN Time Bandits. By the time they were all done it was around 6:30pm, so..what now?
Hung around, nothing fancy. Around 7pm Gretch, Zach, Cheryl & I went over to WalMart. Didn't get back till 9:45pm, at which point I made tortilini's. Put on Robin Hood: Men in Tights & ate, then BeetleJuice. Took a shower after that, 2:30am, & came back to watch some of Fatal Instinct & fall asleep around 4:30am.
Sunday:: Killer dinosaur cramps got me up multiple times, so just stayed up at 11:45am. Sat around in the living room with Mama for awhile until she left. At that point I just watched tv with Norm. After being on the tele with Jill on & off since noon, she finally arrived at 2:45pm. I ate with Eric & her & then they shoved off.
So more sitting watching tv with Norm. I watched about 5 episodes of stupid ass Miami Ink & finally at 5pm started working on the train deal. I'll be going home on the 29th, taking the 12:10pm (ONLY) train which'll take me to Columbia SC, arriving there at 1:45am...yay. Fucking retarded. That trip is going to blow ass..
Though, I am sort of looking forward to going home. I'd like to start getting my life in order, as in...getting a job & doing said job. Atleast just to feel productive again. Not to mention I wont' have shit to do down in SC what with no droogs or Jill now.
Anywhos, I'm just watching Mission Impossible with Mama & Norm now. Probably all I'll do all night is watch more stupid movies, since I don't feel like moving.
That is all

The last few days have been moderately uneventful. I wake up around 11-12 each day. With a few hours of good sleep 'under my belt' & I watch tv with whoseever in the living room at the time. Gretch goes to work on alternating days, so I only see her every so often.
I've hung around with Jill & Bri mostly, during the day that is. At night I hang out with Zach & Gretchen. I went over Bri's the other night & watched Wet Hot American Summer. Hung around there till about 11pm & then came on back home (that was..Wed). Was over in Roosevelt with Jill & Bri on Tuesday night, we just ..we didn't do shit, but better then nothing? (Atleast I got to see Fracture today)
Today, being Thursday, Jillian, Gretchen, & Myself went into PA to make my tattoo appt. Did so & then I drove our asses back. It wasn't a fun trip or anything, but it got what needed to be done, done. My appt. is for Nov 9th, seeing as thats the first free day he, Paul Acker at Deep Six Tattoo, has got. Then back on here to waste time & watch Hot Fuzz with Zach & Gretchen. Afterwards it was just some..lounging around & then by 9pm I was over to Gamestop to sit around with Larry, Josh, & Jenine as they closed up the store. Amusing time, god I miss it there, even if it was just 90min of random conversation with Josh & Larry.
So back home to finish Casino Royale with the Glitz's & then pick up Gretchen. Random crap, eating, then watch Barber Shop 2 (the first I watched last night) & take a shower. Here I am, feeling meh. Tired I suppose it is.
I'm to see Shawnee (first time in nearly a month) tomorrow. Should be Bri, Jill, Shaw, & I just wasting sometime. But I was invited to MM with Larry & Josh..maybe both can be arranged?? Neither should take too long, so I'm sure it'll all work out.
I wonder......

Well..Gretchen told me to update here. Which is a good idea, since I haven't & quite a bit has happened lately.
Re-reading my last real update theres lots of points to address. Mostly the move. We went from moving in 6-12months, following the parents..to moving in 2weeks.
So Shawnee got a place with her BF in North Jersey, as planned. Jillian, myself, & the parents then hauled ass down here on the first of August. The Macs'll be here by the 15th. I can safely say, this has been one of the worst months of my life. Even looking at the terrible things that have happened in my past & how drastically they've effected my life, this is still fucking up there.
Other then the move, I quit the Hess job before the middle of July, fuck that shit it wasn't worth it, at all. I did, however, continue to work at Gamestop. And I grew to really like it, yes..like past mentioned..it's still work. But I got to like my co-workers a lot, they were fun to be around, and the job kept you busy 90% of the time.
Moving down here, to South Carolina, & working at the Gamestop in Newberry. It's really shown me how much I liked it up in NJ at that Gamestop. Which sounds petty & stupid, but it was 100X better there, even if I'm just looking at it as a job that I'd have for 6months & quit. It effected the happiness of my life, and this one down here is negatively doing so.
I've realized the only real droogs I have are the ones, I've always expected. Gretchen is more of a friend then ever, Chaz is here & gone same with Bri. I love them both, but they're not a constant like Gretchen is. Larry's a new friend I've made, since Gamestop. And I must say, that the nightly (every few nights) conversations I have with them are the only thing keeping me moderately happy here.
It's..so lonely & so hot. 100+ degree temperatures with not a single droog. I only work 3-7hrs a week, so I have lots of downtime. And there's nothing to do in this town (literally, there's nothing..I'm not overreacting here). So I spend alot of time reading, watching movies/tv, or just..laying around listening to music dwelling on how unpleasant my situation is.
Minimum wage is very low here, which is understandable because the cost of living is much lower..but I'm not saving the money to spend it here, I'm saving it to spend in Jersey..so it doesn't even out, at all. There's just..a lot of things working against me here. Just the thought of my most loved ones being so far away is a lead weight, always...always crushing my chest.
This is actually, the first night in 2weeks I haven't cried. Which, is nice, because I needed a break. Jill & I are driving up to Jersey on Wednesday (August 15th). It'll be great to be back in NJ (I can't believe I've only been here nearly 2weeks, it feels like an eternity). Jill, though, will be staying in Jersey..and I'll be coming back.
Coming back here, coming back to nothing, within a week of my return to NJ. It's just not realistic to stay in NJ, I can't afford it. But I'll visit as often as I can, and just go back & forth. It'll have to do, atleast till I figure something else out.
The good news, is I will be scheduling a tattoo session for late October *my next planned NJ visit*, and the tat will be..ever so fucking bitchin'. And my droogs are being really supportive of my bitching & moaning. I really appreciate them & am thankful to have atleast one or two worthwhile friends out there. Regardless of the distance.
This turned out much longer then I expected, but..I don't give a shit. I typed it out all within 4minutes.
That's all for now. I've said enough

We love gaugetrade and wished there was a community like it for other things (clothes, books, movies, toys, etc) So we figured we should start one.

| Update time, again. |

Looking through my journal, I haven't posted an update of my situations in quite some time..so why not now?!
Love Life:: Still single; it's really not an issue.
Jobs:: I put in a total of 18 job applications & didn't end up getting a job until June 9th. I now work at Hess, as a cashier/bitch on third shift (10pm-7am) 3-4nights a week. I also work at 'Gamestop' in Hamilton Marketplace.
Hess sucks ass, the co-workers suck, the job sucks, the hours suck, its incredibly boring. Its the suckiest of all suck. Gamestop is good, its still work..so it's not great! But it's decent. Plus the co-workers are pretty amusing. $7.50 at both jobs..:/ good enough.
Money:: Speaking of money, I owe my parents about $1300, theres another 800$ going to my car in the next few months, & I only have $80 in my bank account.
License:: That's right, you caught the hint! I got my license, on May 3rd & bought a car a few weeks later. It's a 93 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S, gold. With bench seats. It's bad ass, with a broken AC ;)
Moving:: Now for some news. 3 aunts in the hospital, the family is moving to South Carolina. Mum needed a new job (since her grant ran out) so she got one in SC, so the parents'll be leaving in a month or so. Then Deo/Gino/Sean (the Macs) will move into this house. After about 6-12months the Macs & myself will move down to SC to join the parents. Jillian (my twin) will stay here with her boyfriend, and Shawnee (little sis) will go up to North Jersey for schooling. I like the idea of moving, and then I hate it. I don't want to leave Jillian, I've never gone longer then a week without her..it'll be weird & uncomfortable.
I don't like change.
That's life..
it's a fucking peach.
