This is my first week of dealing with a full time job and going to school. And it sucks. My classes blow, and I'm taking them to get a certificate to help me get a job I no longer need, so its really difficult to get behind it. But at this point it's too late to get into any of the classes I would find more interesting, and also too late to take placement exams and get started on my degree. In... whatever. Is there a program for that?
Pier 1 isn't so bad. Hours suck, my job necessitates getting there between 5 and 8 a.m., but I'm really busy, and feel like I'm getting something done every day. It's not a career, but it's a good thing to have for right now. Oh, and I just started and I'm already making more than most of the staff with seniority over me. $9.75 isn't spectacular, but it gets it done.
And then theres Lisa. On the other side of the spectrum, she is pretty spectacular. I've been trying to figure a way, but theres not much chance of us living closer until the beginning of next summer. So until then, we're stuck paying ridiculous amounts of money to see each other and just having faith that neither of us are being played. She is ridiculously good to me in every sense, though, and that helps with the faith. She even laughs at my stupid jokes, and thats saying a lot.
Alright, I've rambled enough. I'm not sure who I'm writing these for, anymore, since I don't get many comments, and rarely comment, but sometimes it just feels good to get everything down and put some perspective on things. G'nite, all.
