It's been a while. It's not like nothing is happening. Plenty of things are happening. I've just been too lazy to write.
I'll be going back to work next week. I'm sort of looking forward to it. I've been out of work for 3 months now, and it's starting to get on my nerves. Plus, I need the money. I'm so behind on all my bills. My hospital bills have gone to collections. I still haven't paid off PNC from a year ago. Part of me is like, fuck it. But the other part of me feels guilty, so I'll be a good girl and pay them off. My car was close to being repossessed again. I really need to give up Shakira, but that car is just so cool, and no one around here has one. She's distinctive and I look damn good in her. Oh well. Common sense says to trade her in for a small SUV that takes regular gas. Shakira takes premium.
I've gotten a couple of acting jobs. The latest one being a background part in aa movie called "The Player". I play a juror in a capital murder trial. I got a lot of screen time. My episode of "Will Trent" will be on in 3 weeks. I'm very excited about that. I hope they didn't cut too much. I've signed with a talent agency called XXI Century Entertainment. I'm in their artist development program. At the end of it, I'll have a complete resume, head shots, and a professional demo reel. It's expensive, but I don't care. I really like acting. It let's me be creative, and I don't feel like I'm working.
We almost got evicted. It's my fault as usual. Being in the hospital and out of work put a real strain on us. My short term disability on got approved last week. Now, I'm waiting on a benefit check of about $3400. I'll be able to pay rent again and catch-up on my bills. I also have to get my brakes done and new rear tires. The size of tires I need ain't cheap either. It's about $200 each.
I was hoping to get my car worked on with my tax money, but surprise, surprise, the people at the IRS restructured the tax laws, so I'm only getting $217. I got $900+ last year. So, I'm getting a new chair for my desk so my back isn't screaming at me by the middle of the day.
Speaking of my back, I'm in physical therapy. It was finally determined that the abdominal pains I'm having are radiating from my thoracic spine. So, I have degenerative disc disease and a bunch of bone spurs. I'm trying PT to alleviate the pain. I don't know what the next step is, injections I guess. While I'm on the subject for injections, I'm having another injection in my right foot. This time on the top. I've be having some debilitating pain when I walk sometimes, and x-rays reveal that the nerve on the top of my foot is rubbing up against a bone spur. I have a lot of bone spurs because my body produces excess bone. Anyway, the doctor said he could remove the bone spur, but chances are excellent that it will just grow back.
I met a guy on Facebook a few weeks ago named Lawrence. He seems nice, but we haven't been able to get together yet. First, we played phone tag, then when I finally talked to him, we were going to meet for breakfast, blah blah. But, he decided to work that day. So, we planned on dinner yesterday. He was supposed to call Wednesday, nothing. He texted me on Thursday, saying to give him 15 minutes and he would call me. An hour and a half later, nothing. So, I got ready for bed. Then he calls at 10:15 pm. I missed his call. I tried to call back but he didn't pick up. Needless to say, no date. I'm not sure if I should try calling him again, or what. I'm not going to chase any man. I think it's pretty clear I'm interested, but this game is stupid. Oh, Well!
I don't mind being alone, but it would be nice to have someone to talk to and hang out with once in a while. I want to be married by the time I'm 60 yrs old. Is that too much to ask. I suppose I'll try to contact him again and take the bull by the horns, so to speak. This is the last time. After that, bye!!
That's all for now. Peace, Joy, Love. - B
