Success! I won an ebay auction, yahoo! Usually I get outbid at the last few moments and I get all upset, but not this time! I won an Atlanta Thrasher fan package containing the 2002-03 and 2003-04 yearbooks (both of which I wanted, they have my Russian on the covers yee-ha), the most recent media guide, and a Kovalchuk bobblehead. I didn't have to have the bobblehead but hey, if they're offering I'll take it. =)
Speaking of him, his ass needs to sign back with Atlanta. I know he's over in Russia chillin and all that but the ATL needs him back playing for them. *marching around with Sign Ilya Now sign*
Anywho, about the firing thing, my friend who works upstairs in the same place where I used to told me that no one had said anything about me being let go. She asked my old boss why she hadn't even said anything to her. At first it was just gonna be a writeup but they saw the unopened bags of jackpot/hopper slips and guess that did it. I don't know and don't even care right now. I'm free of that place. It really is their loss, they'll be short an auditor and with it being the first Saturday, someone will have to do slots and drop the whole boat. That would have been me. But oh well eh? At least I got my check. I better have gotten that.
And not only that, the main reason that made work somewhat fun to come to (at least during the week anyway) won't be there much longer himself. Yeah, he's leaving. Which would have been a good thing if I still worked there. I can now get off that topic in my brain. Spent too much time stressing over something that isn't there. I do that a lot. I should stop. Easier said than done though, that's just my nature. I am a Scorpio woman, we are very passionate and intense and sensitive when it comes to love or anything like that. I tend to crush a lot. Many hockey crushes...too many to go through, haha.
So I've been thinking about going back to school in the spring. Well, not so much thinking about it, I am going to. My education is very important to me, and graduating college has always been one of my goals. And sometimes, as Langston Hughes said, dreams can get deferred. Due to real life, paying bills and all that. This means I will be returning to the broke as ever college student I once was. But at least I was happy and enjoyed that. Maybe I can find a job that will fit with my schedule. I can always try at another boat, I have a gaming license so that's not a problem for a job that may require that. Registering for spring starts sometime in November. More concrete plans can be made then. I just hope I don't get too much shit from my mother. First she bitched when I was in school that I needed a job and then I finally got one and now everything is in limbo. Anyway, more when I come up with something. Holla.
