I'm still clawing my way out of the hole I've been digging for the last several years, and sometimes I forget I'm not quite in the clear yet. Sunshine is laying down on me, but I'm still stuck
here, until I can find something better. The job search is not going well. I'll keep looking, but until I can find something...
You know how they say the grass is greener on the other side? It's like that, except I haven't even seen the other side yet. I'm starting to have my doubts, and the only thing pushing them back down again is sheer will. I can't fall back into old habits. God knows where that will take me.
I'm pretty much finished with the murals in this hall now (will post pictures... eventually!), and I'm hoping that since I can't get what I'm worth on the next two, I can convert it into scholarships to go to Trinidad. I'd be fine either way, but I really am tired for working less than I'm worth. And maybe a scholarship would be better pay, in the end. I honestly don't care, as long as there's
something... I need
something.
But enough about that. Did anyone else see the newest Dollhouse? OMG yay. I knew they'd get better once Fox got over its This Is The Way We Should Do It games the first five episodes in. For some reason, Fox believes that ratings improve when the highest quality to an episode is half-naked mindless chicks on display, but considering the exceptional quality of the episodes these last few weeks compared to earlier, I have to say, all it ever did was annoy people.
Loving Echo's character more and more, and am seriously growing into the other actives as well (especially the guy, the one who has a crush on Sierra?). The British Lady (always forget her name too) is also getting more of a character now, and I think I'm even starting to like her. Could still lose her and be perfectly happy, but at least now I can see some individuality in her actions. And Boyd is still as great as ever. I can't wait to find out where this is going! I really hope we get another season out of this.
Also been watching Dexter lately--OMG talk about one hell of a show. The relations between Dexter and his brother especially had me going--the finale of season 1 was just... total wow-factor. Also loving Rita... to be honest, Julie Benz's voice always annoyed me when she played Darla on BTVS... I'm not sure why, I think it just takes some getting used to. I loved her acting there, however, and in Dexter, it's even better. The woman seriously is the hottest thing on two legs, for more than one reason. I really admire the way she can play a character like Rita, and transform her into a strong, capable, don't-mess woman who slowly learns who to take what she needs in life. I
would say I love her even more than Dexter himself, but honestly, there's just something about serial killers... Basil on LJ said he reminds him of Duo, and some sad little part of me agrees. Bahahahahahaha!
