So...I'm finally almost settled in then this stupid hurricane happens.
We were supposed to get cable this past Saturday but I doubt the cable guy came after the storm. A lot of people don't even have power. Oh well...they haven't called me so we'll see what happens.
Work is ok...I got to meet Milly Quezada and had a convo with her son. Milly Quezada is known as the "Queen of Merengue" for you gringos reading this, lol. I also got to hold her grammy, lol. I'm so sneaky...I totally wasn't supposed to.
Other than that I've been updating bios and next week I should finally get started on production...My supposed title is going to be "Production Coordinator." So...I wanna start coordinating productions already ...sheesh!
In other news...my car(Christine) is under a tree and I can't get her out of park. I think Christine may finally be dead. I think I might have to adopt Chester the Berretta...Chester was going to be put out to pasture by my sister...since they have 3 cars...but it looks like I shall inherit the lil bugger.
Christine...it's been nice dear but I'm not sure we can save you this time. I know you would want your organs donated in exchange for cash...it's the best way to go.
My sister wants me to file an insurance claim but...if we're not going to fix the car I figure selling it to a junkyard is the same thing...no? yes?
We shall see...
I'm getting along with the people at work. Everyone is nice to me and offers me coffee constantly...that's how hispanic people are...work for an hour then take a coffee break, lol. My main boss who I answer to is Harry...he's nice about showing me how stuff works. They don't really need to explain much to me...just how to read forms...I know the consequences of all of the actions...I know the purpose of all of the paperwork...I know what a label copy is...jacket, sleeve, q-pack....all vocab words JP insisted on...and for good reason. It will be pretty quick and painless to train me...so I think they like me.
I just want my life to not be ghetto...I have a job.....somewhat of a car....an apartment...but nothing is really complete. My car is crap, I won't get promoted to full-time at my job for another month or so and I still need internet, furniture and cable at my apartment. Honestly the furniture doesn't bug me that much because I have all of my bedroom stuff....but it'll be nice when it finally starts to feel like home.
All of the loose ends seem like they'll be tied up before year's end...so 2006 looks like it's going to be a good one.
Oh well...let's cross our fingers and whatnot...
Cheers to water damage, slow and boring training and lack of a couch...you can't keep me down motha-fuckas!
