Hey there everyone. Long time no update. =) Just thought I'd post up something since it's been a while and I'm sure you all just dying to know what's going on in my pathetically, lonely life. Well, I haven't really been posting much about the Cingular situation, but let me bring you up to speed. I had a secheduled appointment to come in and fill out an application a few weeks ago. In this scenario, several people all come in at once, fill out applications, and their HR division explains to us all what it's like to work for Cingular, the pay, hours, benefits, blah blah blah. After all this we take a simulation in which we are presented with example phone calls and are asked questions about how to respond, etc. I passed the simulation and was told I would receive a call in about 5 days if they were interested in an interview. Well... last Tuesday I got a call and set up an interview for the next day. Halfway through the interview, the floor manager (who's name was Torvac, he said you'd know him April) stepped outside to take a phone call. When he came back in he kinda looked at me as he sat down and was like "Well... I'll tell you now... you're hired... but before we do anything we still gotta finish these questions" So I'm all w00t! <--- not really =P Anyway, after the interview I had to go back to the office again so that HR could make the formal offer, discuss pay, and let me know when training starts. So I had to initial, initial, sign, initial, and date, all that good jazz... Then I had to go back to Little Rock again yesterday to take my drug screen XD So... yeah... that's why I haven't updated in a while =P I was with family most of the day Sunday, and both yesterday and Monday I had to wake up at 6, drive to Little Rock for appointments at 8, and then make it back in time to be at work by 9 and then work 'til 7. So it's been a little... crazy.
I suppose I could also share with you all that alchohol is a great sleep aid ^.^ For those that didn't read my comments on
Wesley's journal, I had a bottle of Seagram's that I was drinking Saturday afternoon. Not much alchohol content, but as I was sitting there with it in the glass, playing Final Fantasy XI, I had the brilliant idea to see what it would taste like with Vanilla Vodka... I didn't mix much, but by the time I was finished with that little concoction, I was already drowsy, so I said "Screw it... I'm halfway there anyway... let's see what this drunk thing is like" So I combined this little Strawberry Daiquiri drink with some Strawberry Vodka, and a touch of Vanilla... Wasn't too bad... And neither was the nap that I took that afternoon XD Got enough in my system to make me really light headed and decided I was so relaxed, I'd go for overkill and take a hot bath... so I ran the bath water and dozed off several times in the bath. After that I pulled the plug, and curled up with a blanket in the bathroom floor (I've done this before... I sleep on the floor, and the bathroom floor is small and confined, it makes me feel safe I guess =\ What can I say? I'm weird ). Combine the alchohol, the bath, the sounds of rain outside, and the steady whir of my fan... I sleep very deep and very peacefully for the next 4-5 hours... it was really nice. I also got drunk yesterday. Vanilla vodka + Bacardi Silver = a sweeter version of Bacardi with a little more bite. =) Don't ask me why... I just... did... maybe I'm just f***ed up... but it really helped me sleep... I haven't been sleeping well at all lately... maybe I'll just drink every night and I'll be able to sleep... *shrug* Anyway... I've got work in about an hour, I'm gonna go get ready. Talk to all you wonderful people later.

Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in...
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in...
Tied to a wheel, my finger's gotta feel
Bleeding through it's arcane smile
I spin on a whim, I slide to the right
I felt you like electric light
For our love... for our fear...
For our rise against the years and years and years...
Got a machinehead
It's better than the rest
Green to red, machinehead
Got a machinehead
It's better than the rest
Green to red...
I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in...
Deaf, dumb, and thirty; starting to deserve this
Leaning on my conscience wall
Blood is like wine, unconscious all the time
If I had it all again I'd change it all
Got a machinehead
It's better than the rest
Green to red... machinehead
Got a machinehead
It's better than the rest
Green to red...
Yeah
I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in!!
Got a machinehead
It's better than the rest
Green to red... machinehead

It's better than the rest
Green to red...
Better than the rest!
Better than the rest!
Machinehead, head, head, head, head, head!
I walk from my machine...
