Elin Vs. Allergy Pills
Apparently, these things will sometimes make me brick stupid, even though I need to take them in order to survive the pollen here in Texas.
That laundry I mentioned last night? Normally, I check all my pockets before I put clothes in to wash. Not so last night, I guess due to the total imbecile factor induced by my allergy pills. In going through the stuff I got out of the dryer this morning (I had to dry one load this morning because they lock the laundry room here at the ridiculously early hour of 10 pm...), I found a completely empty tube of Disney Princesses Chapstick. I mean, the entire tube was totally wiped clean, inside and out.
However, there is no Chapstick anywhere on any of the clothes. It's a laundry miracle!
But.... where did all the Chapstick go? I admit, I am completely boggled. And feeling kinda dumb that I missed an entire tube of Chapstick in one of my pockets. Durrrrrrrr....
Today is a day filled with paperwork! You can almost feel the excitement, can't you?

Although, with the third job I'm going to be getting, I might not need as much (or any help)...so she'll be free to...I don't know, maybe spend her money on stuff she wants. She'll insist, of course, that I save all my income for necessities (such as rent, groceries, and taxes) instead of wiring it to you so you can buy a washer and dryer. How much do those go for nowadays, anyway? And what's your rent? The place I'm in now is about $1000 a month, including all the utility payments, and I'm only paying $200 of that (@_@, I know...lucky me...but it really does help my roommate, especially since he works at the U of I, which doesn't pay ANY of its faculty members—or desperate grad students—during August...)
I shouldn't even say *I'm* paying $200 of that. Mom writes me a "subsidy check" every month. Not this one, though, since I just got a big-ass paycheck, out of which I was able to pull my entire contribution. And with a third job, like I said, I won't need as much help from her, either...maybe I can actually start paying off my debts! That'll be awesome! (My "debts" consist of the couple thousand dollars I've racked up in tuition over the last five years, almost all of which has been paid for by Mom and Pop—but I do have a student loan that they revoked because I like learning too much…but I won't go into that now.) Thank God none of my jobs require that much dealing with people. If I had to work in any kind of retail/service business, much less the "It's an Open Secret That We're Free Babysitters" video game industry, I would already have gone on a killing spree. Most likely by stabbing people in the eyes with Gamecube controllers and pre-owned memory cards.
