Water water

As the old saying goes there seems to be water(in the form of jobs) everywhere I go, yet once I place my application and resume the job seems to fill with more water that does not consist of me. I have been to several places today, and actually had an interview(pause for applause) and am now sitting on the couch with my furry friends and my best friend who is also in the same large boat with me and a million other people. I'm not lazy my animals just make it seem as such. They tell me to put the recliner up. They tell me to grab the blanket, what else am I to do but oblige?
Overall I feel semi-confident about the interview this morning. I was told I would get a phone call to come in for a working interview, which is supposedly some big business! I'm hopeful and really want this position as it is in a dermatologist office, and my long term goal is to be a Physicians Assistant in the same field.

I woke up this morning to a text message from my mother-in-law, who is currently away helping her not so nice daughter during her last few weeks of her third pregnancy. It said "call me when you wake up.. I miss you guys" My friend who is chillaxin with me also received a similar message but it also included the grand phrase "no baby yet". Unfortunately this M.I.L. lives literally two minutes from me.. Walking distance, as she and her other son followed us to our apartment complex. This, therefore, means we see his mom nearly everyday if only to say "hi". I have tried to stay composed through this situation, although it is extremely hard to do. In fact the only time I have ever blown up on her was when I had my third miscarriage and was attempting to take a few days to myself. I was outside with my dog and she and other son was on their way to school(the same school for which I attended.. another round of follow the leader) and she yelled at me saying I need to get going, I was going to be late. I told her I was taking a few days off and she decided to lay into me and used not wanting me to quit school as her excuse. I don't exactly see how missing two days after a traumatic life event is going to correlate to me quitting school and I screamed at her telling her to eff off, that she has never had to deal with the emotional or physical pain that a miscarriage causes. Especially having to deal with it coinciding with her daughter being pregnant. So every time I miscarry I feel as if I don't get any sympathy from her because she is overjoyed her lazy un-motherly selfish daughter is having yet another child to neglect.

Apologies for the negative turn this installment has taken. I just received a voice mail from said MIL and it may have enraged me a tad. It is okay, I have taken a few deep calming breaths and am now on the road to recovery. Thanks for letting me rant!

Opening Statements

To begin my newest venture I will put a lil' somethin' somethin' about myself. I am 24 years young and am married to the best guy a girl could ever hope for. He is caring and understanding of my flaws including but not limited to my inability to keep a steady job or pregnancy. Instead of kids we have decided to raise a cat named Kozmoe and a chihuahua named Veronica, both of which are named from cartoons of which we enjoy... Of course this decision was not made because of us not wanting actual human children to raise, but sometimes you just don't get what you want. After spending four long years trying, two of which were assisted and we are still paying for, we have decided to take a pause from the torture of having sex for procreation. When it is for recreation it is so much more fun... (I apologize for anyone who finds the my use of the ellipsis annoying.) On top of having to deal with the lack of working ovaries I have to deal with many people in my life experiencing the miracle of life. One of which happens to be my evil sister in law who enjoys to rub it in my face any chance she gets. I therefore avoid all alone time with this woman who at one point was a good friend of mine(she introduced me to her brother who is now my loving husband). She has synchronized her uterus with mine, as hers gets filled with a bundle of joy just as mine expels one prematurely. I have spent hours crying in the dark in my pajamas cuddling up with my three best friends:Kozmoe, Veronica, and Breyers. But all that has gotten me is the need to wash our sheets more often and a new waist size.
Currently I am looking for a job again in this awesome economy. I went to school to be a medical assistant as I was assured that the medical field is an ever growing one and yet, most of my fellow classmates and I have yet to be blessed with a career. Again I am trying to stay optimistic about that area as well, but it is a bit hard.
Anyway, when I'm not waxing upon my life issues I enjoy reading and writing. I watch a bit of tv as well, my favorites being Supernatural, True blood and House. I also enjoy watching films that include Jackson Rathbone as a main or prominent character, this makes Eclipse my favorite in the Twilight Saga. I have been a proud member of Team Jasper before it was cool. Not to mention I was a 15 or 16 year old drooling over a young Jackson on Disney 411 as I am comfortable with myself to admit Even Stevens and Lizzie Maguire were favorites of mine well into my college career. I also enjoy Harry Potter and musicals. Lastly, so long as I am able to afford it, I enjoying branding myself with bright pretty colors. Currently I am attempting to save money to get Invader Zim and Gir put indefinitely on my left and right calf respectively.
I hope you have enjoyed my feeble first attempt at doing this whole blogging thing!!!
