I am soooooo exhausted right now, but I have to write before I go to bed. I know all of my friends are sleeping right now, and if I don't get this out somehow, I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight! This week has been such a crazy week... I love it! First of all, I was working like a mad woman... and somehow, I'm still broke! How does that happen?! Not to mention I found a new boy to "crunch" on, so that is always fun. But today was definitely the culmination of my crazy week. I woke up to the sound of my cell phone going off (nothing wakes you up like Britney!). It was the temp agency, telling me that they found me a job in a company that was right up my alley. I called them right back, and I found out there was an opening at the Pensacola News Journal! Not only that, but they wanted me to start today. So I got ready as quickly as possible and headed downtown, not knowing what to expect. Basically, I work in the Classifieds Dept. I am one of four inside sales executives (sounds soooo impressive, huh!) that deals with the people who want to sell things in the classifieds. I then make up their little ad, and voila! I know it doesn't sound like that big of a deal, but it is definitely a foot in the door in the field and/or company that I want to work for. After three months, I start making commission off of the ads I sell, and it turns out that it will be quite a nice little sum each month! And, after six months total, I can basically move anywhere in the company that I want! A lot of people move out of this department into advertising, and I would be totally OK with that, but what I really want to do is go to the newsroom. Anyway, the people there are sooooo nice and funny, and I can tell I'm really going to like it there. Even though I'm on the phone and on the computer all day long, I'm surrounded by people and noise. It's very fast-paced, and everyone tells me it's impossible to get bored there. Sounds perfect for me!
So after I get through with my first day of my new job, I had to get ready for my last night at New Market. I talked to my boss and told him the situation, and he was so understanding! He said he was sad I was leaving, but that he was so excited for me! And when my other manager got there, I convinced him to let me go home early!
Now, this is when the part of the day begins that is eating me up right now. I had the choice to A: go to the Tate football game with Tori and Heather to see Rhett coach for the last time this season or B: hang out with a dumb but hot boy that I definitely do not like but really want to make out with. Well, I chose B. And until the very end of the night, it seemed that I had made the right choice. We were having lots of fun being cuddly and all that crap, but there was no kissing! It's actually kind of a long story, but apparently my evil ways have come back to bite me in the butt, because what I thought was just playful flirting has apparently convinced this emotionally-battered boy that we should move slowly into a relationship! All that makes me want to do is run as fast as possible in the opposite direction! Oh well, so much for my grand plans tonight, hahaha. I just thought my friends would get a kick out of hearing how I definitely lost tonight! Thank goodness for my new crunch to distract me from all this mess!
Well, I'm so tired now, and in the morning Tori and I are heading to Louisiana to do wedding stuff! So I need a good night's sleep... I can't believe I have a big girl job that I LOVE! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
