You all know about this, right? →
im-anew: “The job-focused, tax-focused economy-building new Congress is getting started right away, with a bill to… deny health coverage to rape survivors. Oh, but, you know, that only applies the rape survivors who just don’t count.” Related post: http://tigerbeatdown.com/2011/01/31/dearjohn-they-can-see-us-now-theyll-hear-us-too/#comments

Surgery.
I just had my consultation with the oral surgeon today.  I scheduled the surgery for my wisdom teeth.  February 7th — one week from day.  Holy crap.  It’s so soon.  I could have made it a lot later in the month, but they’re coming out anyway.  I might as well get it out of the way…  =/  I’ve never had surgery before — I’M NERVOUS! On a less anxious note,...

Lake Tahoe.
The way I feel about this place is definitely sitting on a very wobbly line between love and hate. I love the serenity of the mountains.  I’ve never lived in an area this peaceful — this relaxing.  So many trees, so many mountains.  It’s so simple out here.  No city noise or “hustle and bustle”. I love how my surroundings push me out of the comfort of my apartment....

Mexican trailer park.
To the Mexican trailer park neighboring my apartment complex: I know it’s a Saturday night, but your music is very loud and has been playing since 2 this afternoon.  Also — you seem to party about three or four times a week. Now…  I am NOT opposed to a party, but I think it’s important to respect your neighbors. So, please! Either invite me to your party or quiet down...

Upgrade.
It’s time to upgrade my gear.  My cheap Big 5 snowboard boots have cuts and holes in them…  only three years after I bought it.  (Boo.)  As advice for those of you buying your first board, pay the extra 50 bucks to get a reliable brand. All of this practice for Operation Turkey Carving has been wonderful, but it has been taking a toll on my cheapo boots.  The holes make them too cold...

Wisdom tooth.
I’ve never gotten them pulled out.  The pain used to hang around for a couple days every month.  But now — it’s been hurting for two weeks.  My bottom left has grown in halfway.  Half of it is out, the other half is covered in gum.  It’s been like this for a year and a half. I think I have to get it pulled. Ah. :( NOT excited.

Decisions...
It’s time to move on. I have bigger dreams than this.  I know that I have the talent and creativity to get me there.  But here, I am forgotten and shoved to the side.  I’m kept around because my personality interacts well with hotel guests — not because of any culinary or baking skill.  I’ve been given less real work and more bitch work.   I have bigger dreams than this....
