WOW! I knwo that in the light of school starting for everyone that allbody's are busy at this point, but man, i feel like i'm running in circles. actually, i feel like i'm running or standing completely still...its a strange and kinda wonderful thing. but i probably have half the work on my apartment total that i need to get done, which is cool. just the big stuff needs to be moved, and up a little bitty hallway. we'll see how that goes.
work is cool. i've been working alot lately. does anyone know the laws on overtime hours? there's been some weird stuff going on here and i want to make sure that we're all getting paid correctly. my question is: anything over 40 hours a week must be paid at least time and 1/2 with the exception of some police and fireman situations. if anyone knows anything about this, please let me know. i've been looking on webites, but they're pretty vauge. the job is low stress, which is very good for me because there is some outside stuff thats got me a little stressed. this whole year has been stressed it seems like. i feel like i'm doing some kind of weird hazing for real life. at some point things are going to get easier...
my mood is better though. as the devout livejournal followers know i was pretty down for a while and depressed for a long time before that. it wasn't the kind of depression that keeps me in bed but the kind that would take over if i let it. although some recent relapses (mostly caused by the consumption of Mad Dog and way too many reminders of past bull shit in one day) i'm much better now. i can actually be alone and not hate my own company, and sometimes i even feel the need for it. that feels so good. and when i do get upset, i let myself be upset for a while instead of smashing it all down and convincing myself that i'm an imbecile for feeling things like a regular old human being. smiles all around.
to those starting school again, good luck! let me know about concerts and stuff, i want to support you guys as much as i can. later!
