so much to write...
Man, I don’t know where to start. We are broke, but all our bills are paid. We have two broken Xboxes at our house right now. One of them is our nephew’s… that sucks. By all reasonable thought neither of them should be broken, but they are. But the xbox modding business is doing well enough to support itself now… and primarily buy willie’s smokes. So that is great. If we do any better at it, we will have to get a business license!
On the other hand, I turned in my two weeks notice at my job… which really sucks, but… things there had become absolutely unmanageable. They were coming in early to try to catch me at ‘coming late’… which they redefined ‘late’ as several different things. So Thursday, when I got there ‘late’ and Orlando wanted to ‘talk to me before I left’ I figured out that I probably wasn’t long for that place. So I just went on and turned in my notice. And then he proceeded to tell me that I just wasn’t capable or responsible enough for their office. *translation: Orlando demands a Chinese perspective of capable and responsible… I simply never understood what it was their priorities for me were. * but believe me, it took all the willpower I had not to lose my temper. I’m neither incapable nor irresponsible. Period. But it is very difficult to take any job that’s only 12-14 hours a week seriously. I have been actively searching for another job. They knew that… so they tried to find things to blame on me… and THEN he told me that the only reason he hadn’t fired me was because he felt sorry for me. Because of our ‘family financial situation’. And that was the last straw. He can just shove that fake pity. We will survive… somehow.
On that note… I applied at sears and ebgames and target and I bonded with the girls in hot topic (but they said they wouldn’t be hiring until November). And I’m applying to booksamillion online as soon as I’m done writing this. So… I’m on top of the situation… I plan on applying to at least four or five places every day I have off for these two weeks… and just keep trying til I beat the system. It’s the best I can do…
Otherwise… our new futon mattress is hella comfy. Thanks dad! J and the cutester is doing well… he’s so very much a toddler. And a hellion. That’s what you get when you combine two fire signs into one little relentless package.
Anywho… its late, I should be getting to applying. Love you all…
