singapore is nice this time of year

I apologize. There really is no excuse for neglecting you, so I'm just going to lie and tell you I spent the last month in Singapore. A military table left me two Singaporean dollars in their tip so I thought it would be a ridiculous waste not to travel there to use it. Okay, so half of that is true. You decide which half.

But I digress...

A lot has happened in a month. I've decided to go back to school to get my Master's...in nursing. Random? Maybe, but not for those that have been privy to my inner musings. Difficult? Probably, but I am long overdue for an academic challenge. The right choice? I think so? As with most of life, it's a bit of a gamble, but I think I'll like it and I know it'll be worth the effort and money. So, why the hell not?

Despite a three week reprieve from the perpetually naked Amazonian roommate (who visited her Viking ancestors in the lovely state of Minnesota), the living situation has continued to decline. Within hours of her return to Hawaii I saw her naked ass as I walked down the hall to the bathroom. When you're 6 feet tall you should not be wearing little sundresses made to fit an 13 year old schoolgirl. And you should certainly not go commando in them. And, by all means, if you are, please keep your door closed when you're going to bend over and grab something off the floor.

She's still not working, which is somewhat due to a miscommunication with management, but mostly because she's lazy and her parents will give her money. I wouldn't care other than the fact that she's now constantly home, which forces me to either hide in the room or leave the house. I just don't want to see that much of her (in more ways than one). On top of that, they've both been off this week and they had a friend in town. So the living room has been off limits because they've done nothing but sit in front of the TV. Which is fine, it is their TV. But it means that on all three of my days off (and two for the boyfriend), we've been hibernating in our room...all day long.

The bottom line is, I need my own place.

So today we applied for one. It's the same amount we're paying right now, which was not the original plan, but at this point it'll be worth it just to be out.

Cross your fingers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
