The Month of June

takethisforexampleThis summer has been pretty enjoyable so far. I lack the variety of events and interactions that I would normally write about on here during the school year I think, but some notable things have happened that I feel I should probably write down. June has been a slow month, and for the most part I've just been enjoying the weather, pursuing different interests, and working on several creative projects that have filled in the spot where this journal usually is. I also feel that I have been a lot less lonely recently, which is bizarre seeing as I have absolutely zero real life friends to hang out with (with the exception of Johnny and my other old friends at the station). I complained about it because I was seriously depressed back in May and early June. I've been really happy though. I think it's just because it's been so long. I feel fulfilled by my online friendships and I don't really know how to explain my relationship with the whole thing, but something has changed and I haven't felt lonely in the slightest.
Some remarkable things that happened last month include my dad's 52nd birthday, which we spent together down here. The Dead Kennedys were playing at Anchor Rock Club so we saw them together and it was great. We met a mother and son that were around our ages and stuck with them all night. Johnny was there, too, so it was a weird mix of people I like in the same place. He had a good time. It was weird being in a mosh pit with my dad. It was also weird crowdsurfing with my dad. I got to cross that one off the bucket list...
I also very recently got a new job after leaving my other one at the Surf Mall some time ago. I did gig work for Edible Arrangements for a couple days where I delivered orders to people in all the beach towns surrounding Somers Point. I enjoyed it a lot so I called up the delivery service that provides the drivers and asked them for a permanent part-time position. Thankfully, it worked out so tonight I start shift #3. So far on the last two I've delivered in and around Northfield for a few different businesses, and tonight I am stationed at a pizza joint. It's honestly very enjoyable work. It's not super profitable or anything but I get to drive, meet people, listen to my tunes, wear what I want, and keep my piercings (which was up in the air for awhile with other jobs of a similar nature that I had been accepted for). I like that I get to call the shots and feel depended on. Even though it's just delivery, this dynamic has so far been great for me.
Other than that nothing is really new. Corey and I finished Breaking Bad and now we are watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Things have been great as ever in that arena. I went to the urgent care twice this week... uh... what else? I made baked potato skins. And Gibraltar ate half a raw pork chop off the counter yesterday, but he was fine. Very interesting, I know. There's really not all that much to talk about that I haven't already written about already, but I'm okay taking it slow right now. There are some things worthy of their own entries that I'll work on when I have the time. I'm content with where I am and what I have to look forward to, though. Maybe soon things will pick up a bit and I'll have more interesting stuff to discuss.
