My back is killing me thanks to my new job, but I absolutely have to go online every night because I'm addicted and yada yada. And besides, I haven't updated here since the beginning of July. Wtf.
After exactly 3 months in Phoenix, I found a job at Olan Mills. Hired on the spot again. The studio is very small and needs some serious updates, but for now I'm just a sales rep. Yet the nice thing about it is that I can pretty much work whenever I want to, at least for now. I have higher pay because of my experience as well as commission, and really all I do is sell to people a cheap package up front. It's just making budget that I'll eventually have to worry about.
On Monday, I bought a new bike. My work is a mile and a half away, so why pay $3.50 everytime I take a bus there? The bike cost less than two months worth of passes. I purchased a lock as well but am a bit scared to lock it up in front of other places. Just sticking with it being a work bike for now.
In other news, my mom's officially retired, so she's been pining to my dad lately about going on a Disney cruise. Of course she misses me like crazy and would love for me to come with when they finally plan a date. They offered to pay for my passport and cruise stay as long as I came up with the flight costs, which will work as I just got approved to a credit card that gives a free roundtrip flight after first purchase! The big issue as of late is whether we're going to do December or February; it's up to my sister and if she will go with us.
