Call 'em what you will: morbs, blahs, lack of motivation, awareness of the decline into entropy, the point is that they're back. I don't feel like doing much of anything lately... I need to close my Chase account and open a Wells Fargo one (don't wanna pay $12 a month fee, or keep $1500 in the account to avoid said fee) which means then having to update all my stuffs to the new Wells Fargo account once I get all the stuffs. That's probably the biggest thing that I need to do and don't wanna. Why? Well, it's a bit of an inconvenience to try to remember all the companies that I'm going to have to update my banking info with. There's also a weird "this was my first adult account" thing. Why am I feeling loyal to a bank that fee-d me to death in Korea? I can memorize a new debit card #, I can keep the savings and credit card accounts with them... WHY am I dragging my feet on this?!? I'm gonna check into Capital One banking, too... apparently they have no-fee ATM's and no monthly service fee. After looking at it, yeah, I'm gonna go with Capital One I think. Wells Fargo wants me to keep $500 in the account... Capital One doesn't have anything like that.
Anyway... dealing with the realities of losing someone totally sucks. Poor Mom is having to deal with all of his financial stuff and physical stuff and it's exhausting. I want to help as much as I can, but neither of us are really mentally prepared to tackle all this crap. Neither of us really understands everything that has to be done, and I'm worried about her being taken advantage of. Not saying it's going to happen, but you hear stories, you know.
As for me, well, I'm trying to get out and about more and make new friends. My hair dresser suggested that she and I go out some night, and I may take her up on that. I also had dinner with a friend from HS and I have a lunch date with another friend on Tues. So I'm learning how to live in Riverton for a longer time than I had originally planned (yes, I was prepared to stay for a year or so, but that was when I thought the State Dept would get back to me fairly quickly as to if they wanted to meet me or not). I'm not sure if I should have given out my # to the guy who asked for it in the drive thru... I think if he comes back and asks again, I'll go ahead and give it to him. Why not, right? Can't say under a proverbial rock forever. At least I like the people I work with... I have thought of job hunting around Riverton just because it's going to get BLOODY COLD in a couple months, but meh... I'm too lazy at the moment. Again, morbs.
Sorry for the downer post, just wanted to share where I'm at. Even though I don't wanna do much, I will stop by work for their first annual Freedom Fest to see what's what. I'm also gonna fill my growler. Mom and I are going to have a peirogi and kielbasa bake for dinner tonight and I thought the Wasatch brewery's Apricot beer would go well with that. I'm also kinda out of my Oktoberfest beers and that I simply can't let stand! I have talked to Mom about having some kind of Oktoberfest celebration at the house... we'll have to see. Much love, peoples... things will look up, I'm sure of it. It's just gonna be a rocky road for a while. MUAH! :*
