Freaky, Dark, and Weird Part II

Does anyone remember my post about being called, "Freaky, Dark, and Weird" in my Humanities class in Summer 2009? I was really bothered by it at first because of the person who called me that (she bugged me like NO OTHER), while understanding that I am quite ...different... especially from other Mormon girls.

I happen to like being a different breed, if you will. I like my quirks and all of the oddities about me and I EXTREMELY enjoy re-realizing how weird I am.

I have an art of the day application on my iGoogle page and when I logged on tonight, I saw this picture and FELL IN LOVE! I darn near cried it was so beautiful:

It's called La Laguna Estigia (The River Styx) by Félix Resurrección Hidalgo. Its GORGEOUS! I did some research on it and, for those of you that care, found out that it's based on Dante's Inferno.

To add to the painting reaffirming how Freaky, Dark, and Weird I am, I would like to admit right here, on my blog that 2 people read, that I am a masochist. A SEVERE masochist.

I decided to tell GP/Beetlejuice about the openings in my department at work (with my boss' permission, of course) and he is applying. I don't think I took into account that telling him about the job meant that he would be calling/texting/fb-ing me practically EVERY DAY. The worst part is, I've gotten used to him calling/texting/fb-ing me all of the time again, so I'm constantly checking EVERYTHING, which just pisses me off. hahaha. I hate that I kinda-sorta-maybe think I want him here...but at the same time, I don't. Basically I'm just a confused girl and I hate it. hahaha. I'm so used to knowing myself and my mind that when I get put in this kind of situation I'm completely disoriented and can't really think. It doesn't help that as soon as he starts talking to me my coherency level drops like a new-born giraffe.

The jerk.

Things that induce laughter/smiles/happy feelings in me today:

1. Free merchandise from CAPA Kristen's bf who sells Izze. Has anyone out there ever tried Izze? I'm on the fence, but I've only had the Blackberry drink, so I dunno... ANYWAY, I got a shirt, 3 stickers, 3 magnets, chapstick, and a drink for free today. Thanks, Jim!

2. I'm getting my own office at work. Yep, a full-blown office to go with my promotion. I can't wait until Christy finishes my contract - I want to go to the dentist so bad!

3. I ordered the dress I've been in love with for nearly a year the other day. Pictures will be posted once I get the dress. I know, I know, I've already promised pictures of my haircut. Maybe I can kill 2 birds with one stone...

4. Chelsea interviewed at SQA today for the CAPA internship. I hope she gets it!

5. Natalie mailed me a letter from Shauna and I got it today. My mom was emailing me at work to tell me I had a letter from Tempe, which really confused me. Needless to say, I was on pins and needles all day about it.

6. I'm dead serious about going to England and Ireland for my 25th birthday next year. I'm also STOKED for it.

7. I finally went to FHE (for the first time in this ward) and the Bishop asked me to speak on Sunday and told me he wanted to meet with me during church to give me a calling. I'm 99.99% sure I know what it is, but I guess I'll find out on Sunday...
