I called the apt people today to tell them that I won't have a pay stub until this Friday. She said it was ok and I could move in then. Sounds pretty definite to me. My mom is dead set against me "living all alone in the hood, living by all those low-lifes." "Um hello ma, where do you think I had to go everyday to get my dope...?" "Well still you dont need to be around those types and having all that temptation to use again." "Waking up every morning is temptation enough." That settled that. Anyway Eric wasn't too thrilled with the idea of upgrading to a two bedroom, which was "the fall back plan", I wasn't too thrilled with it either. My mom did say that it was more than likely Prett would move down here if I asked him to. Bonus. Oh I fucked up and missed the u of h application deadline (before today), I thought it was for the 5th. I'm getting dates confused, I need one of those big desk calendars. I don't know if I'll go to the community college for a semester or what. I still need to talk to u of h people some more, and also osu people to get my transcript. Takes forever getting through automated phone line hell to reach an actual live person. Maybe I'll start communications with Rice, hahaha. I had my test scores sent there as a joke. Maybe they have a "good will hunting" award and I'm just the right weirdo genius they're looking to award it to? So anyway my scores went like this: Reading 282/300 I missed three questions one each in Word Meaning, Writer's Purpose and Critical Reasoning. Math 285/300 (these had to be curved!) My averages for the skill levels are Fundamental Math 63%, Algebra 87%, Geometry 100%, Problem Solving (Logic) 100%. So I guess I can't add. Writing test 300/300 I missed two questions one under Purpose & Audience and one under Usage. On the essay I got an 8/8. Not too shabby. Have they created a test so that I can get a GED for college? It'd be nice, dammit. Cindy called and asked if I wanted to be part of one of her focus groups. (This is what she does for a living now, actually making pretty good money). They're doing a study for low carb dieters. For 2.5 hours of "work" I'll get $100. She's gonna try to get me into other groups but she said she can't bend the rules too much to get me into a group. No prob, the hundred will be my down payment on the apt. Eric broke my futon a few days ago, we need to get another 2x4 to fix it. Got my flight confirmed, dec 19th - jan 4th. And the 19th I flew out at 6am, actually before 6am. I'll need to get to the airport around 5, maybe sooner with all the "random" searches they'll put me through. I fly to atlanta then to rochester. I'm in a very small fall out of the sky plane between houston and atl, then a regular sized plane between atl and roch. I cant remember which but on two of the flights I have aisle seats and on two of them I'm right next to the emergency exit. I might just stay up all night cuz I dont think I'll be able to get up that early. Prolly wont sleep much anyway being too nervous. I need to get going to work.

Always remember to quit while you're ahead.
