I don't know how I feel about the next couple of days... They're going to be so incredibly hectic, but I guess that's exactly what I need right now to get me out of the lethargic summer funk I promised myself I wouldn't get into. I'm super siked I got two new jobs--the new J.Crew outlet and waitress at the (also) new TGI Friday's--because, of course, I need money and just something to DO. Living in Vacaville is what I thought it would be: lonely and boring. It's weird living 30 minutes away from my high school friends... it's enough to prevent me from seeing them very much, but it's short enough to make me feel sad and guilty that I don't see them more... even though most of them are MIA due to their status of either being A) out of the state OR B) out of the country. But now my job training is officially starting, meaning that the next week will have J.Crew prep in the morning from 8-3 and TGI Friday's training in the evening from 4-9. I hope I don't get sandwiches and shirts confused! I'm lucky, though, that I picked up two jobs where everyone else is brand new too... I won't be the only one learning and making mistakes, which is comforting during a time when I can easily get overwhelmed, especially since I have no experience with waitressing or with retail. I'm in the right state of mind for this right now, though... I'd rather be overwhelmed, busy and exhausted than feeling nothing. Hopefully work doesn't make it so I don't see anyone over the summer, seeing as how there's already obstacles in seeing people. Well, if anyone is ever bored and wants to take a trip out to the internationally renowned city known as Vacaville, J.Crew opens the 21st and TGI Friday's opens the 26th, and I wouldn't mind seeing some friendly faces walk in to work. AND TGI Friday's is going to have a special preview/opening-day-run-through/practice-our-skills day on Wednesday the 23rd for family and friends of the workers (so we can mess up on them rather than actual customers). Anyone interested should let me know. It would be fun! And you'd be able to get in before anyone else.
My spouse has left me yet again and it will be atleast a month before I get to see her again. CHRISTY! Come back!!
I think the fast-paced wit and humor of Gilmore Girls season deux now calls my name to rock me to sleep... even though drama with Jess will tempt to keep me awake.
