Dear Diary:
This is Carrie. I know I haven’t talked to you in a while — but that’s sort of because I have had a job for TWO WEEKS NOW! A job as a legal secretary in a West LA law firm! That means a solid day’s work, a solid day’s paycheck, a solid means of learning about the law and preparing for my court reporting career — and most importantly, a solid two to three hours of commuting every day. Oh Diary, how I wish somebody would finally build that Los Angeles Subway to the Sea! How I wish real estate in Brentwood were cheaper. How I wish (for the first time) that I didn’t drive a stick. How I wish I had a rickshaw and a pair of strong thighs to take me over the Sepulveda Pass every morning. How we all wish, Diary!
In other news, SKYRIM IS HERE. It’s finally, finally here. Kevin woke up at 4:30am this morning to start playing it on his PC; I woke up at 5:30am to start playing it on mine (my character is a wood elf and she is named Daenerys Stormborn). He’s bringing home the 360 version (and the giant manual) tonight. We will eat pizza and fall into a state of dragon-induced bliss.
I would like to eat a lot of pizza tonight, Diary! Also, maybe buffalo wings. But I will call them dragon wings.
