Yay!

Well, Jon had another interview today. They're bringing him back in for a second interview later this week. Also, we got approved for the apartment. Which is great... Except the move-in date isn't until  August 5th, and we have to be out of our current apartment this week. And besides all that, I go home August 7th, so I'm not even going to have real time to decorate the new place. And I've been looking up ideas non-stop! 

A thing I did last week was apply for the Torrid Model Search. I'm thinking I'm not likely to be chosen, but it's still something fun and it gets me out there and exploring an avenue of work I really love. When I go home in August, I'll be attending a casting call for Torrid. This is frightening for me because I have no idea what to expect or even what to do when I get there. I hate crowds but I'm the only one holding myself back, right? But I don't even know what to wear!

I'm surprisingly so ready to start buying school supplies and school clothes, even though I'm not ready for school cause, ya know... It's school. Although I think what excitement I do feel can really just be chalked up to me loving new things. Especially clothes... *drools thinking about new clothes*

Well, I'm excited about the changes coming up for us, even if they're not all that positive. Change is really the only thing that matters. Keep us in your thoughts. 

Snowcones and Writing Block

As it is summer (though very near the end), and I am a sensible person, snowcones are THE way to celebrate not being in school. Since summer began, I've had exactly one snowcone and it was earlier this week. It was also possibly the best snowcone I've ever had. There's this lot of food trucks in downtown, including one called Mambo Ice, where we got my snowcone. They're a little pricey and kinda surrounded by honey bees, but the product is top notch. I got a Blueberry Daiquiri (no alcohol of course), and it turned my mouth blue. The flavor was totally worth it.

Besides snowcones and being a few days late on the blog, we finally found a place. It's a little on the expensive side for him, but the space is nice and really close to campus. It's gonna be an adjustment, but I think it could really be worth it. Before we settled on that place, we were looking at a cheap efficiency with two rooms, a small kitchen, and small bathroom. Despite not being a lot of space, the place had charm. I think for a girl and her pet, it could be great. Honestly I kinda wish I coulda lived in the place by myself with my dog. I feel like I could have turned the place into a nice hovel for me and my baby.

My writing mood is horrible. Every day I want to write, but when I actually get up the enthusiasm to pull Word up, nothing comes out. Probably the same reason I can't get these posts out on time. Nothing flows through my head onto the page. I wish this writing block would just go away.

I miss writing and inventing characters and just... I don't know, I guess creating. It'd be nice to even just start writing on an old piece. I'd love to actually just finish something.

Guess my goal before end of summer is have another snowcone from Mambo Ice, and maybe just finish (or start) another story. But I guess we'll have to see...

That is all. Kaylee.

Lazy Kitty Day

Most of today I have spent in bed, curled up in a ball, while Jon runs errands and takes care of groceries. The entire day has been in a stay in bed and cuddle the cat day. Though she isn't as sweet as she appears, she's spent the day curled up at my side as we slept and waited for dad to come back. 

Well things are going well job wise for Jon (fingers crossed). It looks like he'll be getting a job that will also provide us with healthy, cheap food. I've been applying for babysitting jobs everyday and am still applying for retail jobs. However, I've been applying for jobs in Nac for when school starts up again. Gotta be prepared, ya'know? 

We're also still looking for a place for Jon. He'll be kicked out of his apartment at the end of this month, which means we need to get him into a place ASAP. Which is unfortunate because he can't afford very much, meaning it's hard to find a 1 Bed/1 Bath for him. Which of course means he'll end up in an apartment with roommates, exactly what he's trying to get away from. 

I've been in an extreme writing mood recently but can't think of anything to write about. My dreams have provided interesting ideas, but they seem to slip away too fast. Reading has also been calling to me, but my one book I have with me isn't keeping my attention too well. 

Well that's all I have for now. Aren't you proud of me for posting on schedule? 

26 Days Later...

I don't know why it takes me so long to get back to this freaking blog. I completely blame Jon. I haven't been able to secure a job yet, but Jon has a second interview on Friday morning. Positive thoughts and vibes please! We could really use the money.

My mom and I have decided to sell my car and use the money to put down on a newer car. So if any of y'all are interested in a '96 Lexus with a few problems, please let me know!-_- I know the car I want but I'm nervous that my car won't get a bid or that no one will be interested. I mean it's a great car, it drives beautifully, and the A/C is God's gift to Texas, but there are just things wrong with it that I'm not able to fix, things I can't afford to fix.

We've also been looking at places for Jon. We're going to actually see with our eyes some places tomorrow. He found a 1 Bed/1 Bath for cheap and a studio that isn't too bad. We were really hoping to get in on his friends' duplex since they just moved into a bigger house, but his roommates have decided to go somewhere else, so he's left looking for somewhere cheap but comfortable.

Our eating habits haven't been too bad since I moved in, but not moving around much, or working, or even simply leaving the house has left the both of us gaining weight from laziness. This week we decided to start working out, but haven't started yet. But I feel positive we'll start soon. Neither of us are feeling good about ourselves, and I think that will help with motivation.

Okay, well that's all my news. Have a good night!
