The good news: I HAVE A JOB. IT'S BEEN CONFIRMED.

The not-so-good news: I HAVE A JOB. IT'S BEEN CONFIRMED.

I'm nervous. I haven't worked in a few months. Also, while I'm there today filling out paperwork, I will inevitably be humming Pogo's "Alice," which is made up of sound clips from Disney's Alice in Wonderland rather than actual lyrics. It ( Read more... )

Black Friday, I ventured out of my house to go shopping...and bought everything I needed (including jeans and another book) with general ease. Traffic wasn't terrible, at all, and I found parking spots at each place within five minutes. What are people talking about ( Read more... )

College draws closer, my packing has begun, and today was my last official official day of work. Officially ( Read more... )

Today was one of those rainy, moody days, where most people are groggy and as low as the weather. So of course, this also happened to be my longest, last full day of work (I'll be working three times next week, though only for a few hours each day). It wasn't so bad, actually, but by the end of the shift, my feet were hurting, and I was ready to ( Read more... )
