Where, you ask, the Hell have I been ( Read more... )

My god, time for an update. So, first off, I got both a promotion and a transfer little over a week ago. This means more hours, more $$ / hour, and no more having to deal with Twat I. It also means dealing with Soon-to-be-Fired Rude-girl, or SFRG for short ( Read more... )

I've asked around to see what Starbucks will be doing, recalling their response to the tsunami. I know know that the CUP funds will be used to help employees, but as of last night, that's all corporate had figured out so far. The guy on the phone thought there might be more, but wasn't sure. I also asked at work today to see if we'd have anything ( Read more... )

I was scheduled to work from 6pm to 10pm tonight. I know this because, I checked, double checked, and wrote it down in my calendar. So I stayed up a bit last night after my first class, slept in, took a later shower tham maybe I usually would. And as soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, at 9:45am, my brother hands me the phone--it's work ( Read more... )

Still dogsitting, so my time home is very limited until next week ( Read more... )

Today is one of those days when the song lyrics stuck in my head have absolutely nothing to do with anything I'm thinking or feeling or . . . anything. . .

For instance:

I think it kinda funny
and I think it kinda sad
the dreams in which I'm dying
are the best I've ever had. . .Songs pretty, I think it's more the melody that's lodged in the brain ( Read more... )

Well, so, back in the early part of June, I woke up one morning feeling like I was dying. Literally--chest pains, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, vertigo, dizzyness, puffy-face, fatigue, weakness. . . all of that at once. My first thought is: Oh God, the cancer's back! My second thought: Or, it could be a heart attack, which would be ( Read more... )

My day started out rather crappily. I've been thinking, for over two months now, that the Foreign Service Exam was on Friday, April 29th. So I dug out my "ticket" today, only to read that I was scheduled for Saturday, the 23rd. Yeah, as in last Saturday. I was rather put out with myself, as you can well imagine ( Read more... )

So, Lent's finally caught up with me. Reassuring in a way, but still not easy to deal with. I think it caught up because the rest of the family went to Atlanta for Ro's Hockey Divisionals. . .I'd hate to be around them like this. Ro would be cool, but Mom and Dad would think I was trying to get attention by acting weird. Hopefully, I'll be ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm back. No more dogsitting. Worked 5am-10 today-- tomorrow I'm 5am-1:30pm at the hellishly busy store. Arg.

In other news. . . there isn't other news right now. My feet hurt, but my hot cocoa+cinnamon is quite yummy.

I was Bar certified today (bar as in Espresso Bar, not the law-thingy). Yay, I know how to make a latte.
