"They don't call it a job for nothing!"
Any Sex in the City fans?
I recently started watching, but I don't know if I like it. All 4 women have something I absolutely HATE about them, but they also have something I can relate to, in some kind of weird way.
You know how I didn't get paid on September 16 as I was supposed to for working for 4 weeks? They told me that I would get paid today. Which was good, because I have a lot of bills due. So I wait patiently for my check today... and... no check. So I called payroll and almost told someone about themselves, and they told me to go to some building on Broadway to pick up my coveted check. There they tell me that it has not been made yet, but "hopefully you'll have it by next week. Early next week." I'll tell you... dude was lucky there was 2 inches of plexiglass in between us, cuz I was really about to show out. Have you ever wanted to cry so bad that you couldn't open your mouth cuz you knew the tears would come streaming down, as if your mouth controlled your lacrimal glands. I had to leave before I embarrassed myself.
So I'll be broke for another weekend. And it's a bad weekend too, because Christine, my friend from FSU, is coming over from Jersey (Rutgers) to visit. Plus, it's starting to get chilly, and I need to buy some scarves. I would use my credit card, however, street vendors that sell the "magic" scarves don't take Visa, Mastercard, or Discover.
Also, I am waiting on my scholarship check. My tuition, of course, was due on Wednesday. I called Gates Millennium Scholarship Program, and they made me look like an ass because... they sent the check out on September 2nd. WTF. So now I have to wait at least 2 more weeks to have that taken care of. And I was relying on my refund so that I could pay off my car, which is sitting in my garage, collecting dust. I told my mother I wanted to sell it... I would have gotten a pretty penny for it, and maybe I wouldn't be in the bind that I am in now.
Be right back.
