Well, happy Thanksgiving day to all the people out there that are reading this! (two or three of you, at least) As if I haven't told (most of you) in person. In any case. The festivities are over, let hell begin. hopefully there aren't going to be too many drunk people around this thanksgiving, but whatever. I am starting my feat of work tonight, I work graveyard, then swing the next morning with graveyard immediately after, with swing after that, with morning after that with grave after that... so, in four days, I will be working 6 shifts in four days, thats right! that means that I will be working 2 entire days out of 4. Ahh, I think my boss hates me.... either that, or I just didn't request the time off and everyone else did... totally viable.
Anyway, other than that, I got to see my cousin at thanksgiving that I have not seen for about... a year or two. we were pretty good friends in high school, but it gets harder and harder to maintain contact, fortunately, we always get to see each other in the holidays. He is pretty much the only close to my age at the gatherings any more. ::sigh:: but I shant complain, I have a lot of family. I wish everyone's family were as close as mine. I really wish that for some people that read this. Except for my hoser brother that borrowed my Dresdan Dolls c.d. twelve hours after I bought it.... GRRRRRR!
In any case, I thought I was going to be making some good money next month, but my superviser put me back on minimal schedule, 3 days a week, with four days off in a row in most cases, so that I can try to find a place up in Denver or Colorado Springs. Except that she is making me work full time almost identical to the schedule for thanksgiving, except on Christmas, so its not like I can get a job while I am still working here anyway. I have decided that I am going to continue this through this schedule and that is it. dammit..... I am not sure if I am ready to commit to that, but there is no better time than now, so I have to commit, I am getting too comfortable here again, and I have to keep my goals in mind. It is too easy to coast.
so, goals:
1. contact uncle in Denver to confirm staying at his house.
2. setting date of departure.
3. doing it.
That really is all there is to it, but just thinking about it makes my stomach nearly cramp, probably because I know that there really IS nothing stopping me this time. I even have money. I just have to remember my purpose, goals, and reasons. Hardest of all, I have to remember that I can do it.
