Lazing Around At Home
Guess I will try and ramble in this thing more. XD; I is at the family house for a couple days right now. It's always nice to visit here and be away from like work and the daily grind, but I always miss 'Ina too. That was sort of embarrassing, but it's still true. Mom said on the car-ride down here that maybe we could go ask around about some of the apartments ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kaitou_marina and I looked at but couldn't ask about because it wasn't office hours and/or they didn't have flyers with any extra information or anything. I hope we actually get around to doing it. I was really curious about a few of those places. If not, I'll just have to call and ask, which isn't that hard or anything, but I think I have vague anxiety about the phone and calling people for a reason.
Don't ask me why, I don't know. It's not even that extreme because I will do it, I just get very reluctant to call when I have a specific reason for doing so. I dunno, it's weird.
Also talked about possible types of jobs I could look for when we move down here. Mom really would like (and honestly so would I) for me to find something slightly more career/future oriented. It's not like I like working in retail/food etc in the slightest, it's just that I don't know how or where to go from where I am now. It's not like my foreign language skills are up to par for what I'd need for a job, but I know there must be other things I can look into. So were like trying to think of ideas of other areas of study that I focused on in school. What I'd really like, and it may be a pipe dream, is to work perhaps in the video-game industry in some shape or form. It's been a pretty constant dream for me to delve into the field one way or another since like... middle school. XD; There's a book I've seen floating around all about different ways and jobs in the gaming industry, so I kinda want to pick it up, at least to see.
Ah speaking of video-games, Indiana Jones Lego Adventures or whatever it's called is adorable and really addicting! I think Mari and I have to get that one. *.* I haven't really been playing my 360 much cause I'm usually doing so much on the computer anyway or playing Phoenix Wright on the DS, but I definitely would get the thing going for lego!Indy ♥
Other than those few things, only things going on with me are various RPs XD Pique (of Princess Tutu) and Kurogane make the strangest allies EVAR, I think. XD And my dragon boy is like, so head-over-tail in love and doesn't even realize how bad he's got it yet. And there's draaaaaaaaaaaaaama in the realm of the dead and a god of death that doesn't know he is a god yet XD Lol. And I have to say, damn you Shito (the guy in my icon actually) for being such a contradiction on legs *shakes fist* But I will master your character, I swear it! Oh yes, and a certain twin will be arriving soon and causing friction between our Big Puppy and Big Kitty soon >D Not that anyone knows what I'm talking about. (Except maybe that first one, that's over at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

Now, see? This is why I don't post often. I just go on and on about random crap! Ah well ^.^
OH OH, wait one more thing! I saw a fox on the way down here yesterday! Zomg, it was so cute! ♥ I was sooo happy. It was just sitting off to the side of the freeway in the grass, staring up into the sky. It was a little gray one. Sooooo cute! I like spazzed. I'd never seen one in the "wild" before. ^..^/) Ki~tsu~ne~ ♥

As for the narrowed down area, we have to be a decent/short commute to Lynnwood/Alderwood Mall since Marina already has a job at the Lenscrafters near the mall. So we're looking at Lynnwood, Shoreline, edges of Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, Brier (though I've seen nothing available there, but it'd be a not bad commute, so it's on the table) and a last-ditch effort would be looking in Everett.
