novapsycheYesterday I visited my temp agency and let them know I was growing dissatisfied in my current assignment. Either they need to up my pay, or they need to transfer me to a new assignment where I will start out with decent pay. It's a slap in the face to be working in the same assignment for the same little wage with no apparent track to become part of the permanent staff. The lady said she'd call my boss when he comes back from vacation and speak with him.
I sent out some requests for info on a handful of graduate creative writing programs. But it's all pie in the sky right now. Until I can pay Grinnell back the money I owe them, my transcript will remain out of reach. And let me say, it's hard to save money when you're living paycheck to paycheck.
Not much else to report. Oh--I had odd dreams again last night. There was a banquet hall, and there was a huge line of people in a ring around the square layout of food. I stood at the end of the receiving line, but I wasn't actually in line. I thought about pilfering a roll, but decided I wouldn't cut in front of everyone. So I got in line. But the time I got to the food, all that was left were various batches of brownies. All of the dinner food was gone.
Later there were two brothers, one of which I believe was trying to get me to dance and the other wanted to show me how he could wrap his legs around mine and flip me in a spiral. I took off my glasses and let him--it wasn't as scary as I thought (I thought I'd spin in midair and land on my shoulder, but his movement just kind of rolled me on the ground). At some point, I was lying next to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vaxjedi and whenever the brother would nudge me, vaxjedi would make an annoyed sound, because nudging me pushed me into him. Eventually, I disengaged from the brothers and curled up with vaxjedi, and he got a little smile on his face and we cozied.
There was also something to do with beer and ginger beer in a freezer, running up to a door to make sure it didn't lock (this happened repeatedly), and getting together in a trio to sing disco tunes.
Like I said, odd.
