where in the world is....

jane who wears lots of scarves?

I hope in your head you were singing the theme song to the 90's game show/computer game with the same name, "Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?" because that's what was in my head.

Anyways, where in the world am I? Why, I am in my new apartment! That's right folks, I finally moved back out! And what else? I have a boyfriend too and we've been dating for almost seven months now.... I know what you're thinking. Who is this girl and what has she done with our Janey? Well it's me, my darlings and if you want further proof, here you go...

While, yes, I have moved out and got myself a man (a MAN!), but I also totaled my car a couple weeks ago (my fault) and I currently am laying in the living room of my new apartment, dying of heat stroke (we live above a laundromat), and suffering from pink eye. I look like a freaking pirate.

I still work at the same crappy job I did last time I posted.

But I feel different. And who knows, this may change, but instead of thinking the world owes me for the crap I'm continually being dealt, I'm going to try to make the best of it. For example, I totaled my car and I had liability only on it so there's no way of getting a new car except with the money out of my literal pockets. And there's not much money in there. So that sucks, but instead of thinking this is bullshit the universe hates me, oh woe is me, I just need to think, this is bullshit but it happened, so what am I going to do next to fix this? My mom (bless her loving and beautiful soul) is having hip replacement surgery soon and she said I can borrow her car while she is on the mend. After that, I'm going to look at my expenses and my so very little and sad paycheck and figure out how much I can afford to pay on a car payment, and buy a car. And this time have full coverage instead of liability only.

So that's my plan.

I'll be honest, probably the worst part of not having a car is the fact that it is so difficult to see my boyfriend now. He lives two hours away so now to visit him (so he's not driving here every week) I have to take a greyhound bus, which is pretty inconvenient simply because he lives an hour away from the grey hound station, so he still has to drive. But he's fantastic and awesome and drives that hour to pick me up anyways. I don't know how I lucked out to find such a wonderful guy but I'm going to try my best not to muck this one up. We'll see if that happens.

So that's it I believe, those are my wondrous and illustrious updates.
Stay fresh.
