So this week was pretty bad...
Monday I woke up at midnight and could not, for the life of me, get back to sleep. Work went very slowly, and Val had her wisdom teeth out, so she was all hopped up on Vicodin.
Tuesday started at 330 in the morning. Ace, my puppy, went out with the other dogs, but the older one attacked him, for his treat we thought. After I went to work, he attacked Ace again, so he was put down later that morning. Depressing day.
Wednesday wasn't so bad, though. Worked with my manager and talked with him for a while about why I want to be a supervisor, the responsibilities of a supervisor, and then we talked about history for a while. Went home and Val had a few friends over, and we all talked about tabletop gaming.
Thursday, however, was pretty bad. On my way to work, my car died. They think it threw a rod or something and it needed a new engine. It's an older car, and probably not worth fixing, so I spent the day looking at used cars. I hate car shopping. But towards the end of the day, I was talking with some friends, and they are willing to sell me one of their cars on the cheap, $1,000 under bluebook. Still a little concerned about how much I was able to get from the bank, I told them I would see if I could get what they were asking.
Friday was pretty uneventful in the morning, but around 1pm I got a call from my manager telling me that one of the other supervisors had just given his two weeks notice, so when I come back from my new years vacation in Arkansas, I will be a supervisor at the other site. This promotion means I can afford a larger loan, so I can help the aforementioned friends out and buy it from them for the amount that they still owe on it, instead of them taking the hit. I'm just waiting to hear back form the bank on a yes or no! I am feeling confident
