My frequent Tourettes have subsided for the most part, due to less waking and tossing and turning in the middle of the night, as well as to the fact that...

I GOT THE JOB.

I.
GOT.
THE.
JOB.

I GOT THE JOB!!!! I've known since two Monday's ago, but had to pass a drug test and get finger printed and whatnot to guarantee employment. I haven't heard anything ( Read more... )

I've got a lot of things buzzing around in my brain and body. Kinda feels a little like my skin is crawling, which in turn generates this uber-restless energy that has me jumping from one task to another, but at least I'm being productive. Called out of work today. Thankfully spoke with the manager who knows what's going on with me. She was ( Read more... )

I might be getting a new car. Possibly. Still trying to work out the details. This would be awesome.

In other news, work:

It's bad enough when we find books out of place, especially when there's a stack, due to a customer's laziness, stupidity, and sheer sense of entitlement, but it's just enraging when customers do it right in front of us. As in, ( Read more... )

I just finished applying to four jobs (that makes 9 in two weeks! - I'm proud of myself!) and I can't help but think, I could be right for one of you! in regards to the employers. Because I COULD, dammit. And clearly as much as I hate to admit it, hope springs eternal, because once again I am actually excited about the possibilities any of these ( Read more... )

First let me just say that 1a - I've never really been a horoscope girl, but 1b - I'm giving embracing and learning from them a try, and damn have mine been eerily, eerily spot-on lately. All good stuff, and always makes me smile when I read them, because it helps reinforce the idea that I am on the right path.

Mary Kay is amazing. I went to my ( Read more... )

I love my little breakfast-nook-table-turned-home-office. I am in much better spirits today, after a relatively stressful though productive morning ( Read more... )

I do enjoy spending my nights in an Etsy-induced haze. There are so many wonderful things to be had...I just can't imagine ever getting bored. I've started a Wish List of sorts, that way when I do have a bit of spending money to spare, I can consult my list and get something I've wanted for some time, instead of making an impulse buy ( Read more... )

It was...a day. Not particularly good or particularly bad. It had its ups and downs. But at this moment, I am content and honestly, at any given moment I've realized that's all I can ask for ( Read more... )

A frustrating start to what will no doubt be a frustrating day, given that it really is 90% attitude and I'm just plain worn out. Woke up with a puddle of poop on the bed, and two sizable piles on the couch to clean up. Not sure who they were from, or if it's both of them, since we're changing their food, too. C basically had to push Evie out from ( Read more... )

For the most part, aside from a huge upswing of stupidity and ignorance in our store manager, work has been bearable. And life has typically been pretty damn good :) I feel good a lot of the time, upbeat and positive, and just hoping and looking forward to what the future may bring ( Read more... )
