Damn. August is shaping up to be a weird-ass birthday month.

Work

Happy to have this as a subtitle. Don't think I've really used it.

There is a high turnover rate as a tutor near a college. Simply, most the hires are college students... who graduate. A lot of them are nerds like myself and are fun to work with. Sadly, after about half a year there, I'm suddenly a 'veteran.' As a result, I'm picking up way more hours, which is great given my light load for my last semester.

School

Starting my last semester next week. Woot!

Life

August is the birthday month, yay! Got rear-ended on the way home today. Not aware of damage to myself. Minor damage to the car... annoying since its (the same ca that got the window smashed) is my grandmother's. Nothing sad, just a pain. (See first sentence) On the bright side of things, a cosmetic for my main champion in LoL is getting released tomorrow. Oddly, that's been holding me afloat for something nice at the end of the past 2 weeks.

Relationships

Weird how after setting a boundary and working to not be in a weird space with ol' lady friend from the past posts, she isn't willing to see me. Runs against what she had been saying for the past month or two since setting she crossed that. Buddy of mine told me about how it's common for boundaries to serve as ammo for those who crossed a boundary to villain-ize (?) the person who had set it. Sucks, (if true) but nothing to do there. Assuming I won't be seeing her indefinitely is my best bet.

On the other hand, I actually was PM'd on an online dating site for once - by someone who isn't a bot. More to come next Pubski post, I'm sure.
