Ok, everyone else is updating (read: Dag and Amber) finally, so I figure I may as well do my sporadic update as well.
You can all probably figure this out on your own: I don't have a life.
Thank you.
I do have a job, however. DialAmerica, telemarketing. 23.5 hours a week at $8+ dollars an hour. Schwee! Life is good. Note to self: update link
In other news, I am on a diet. I've lost 8 pounds thus far, and I've been on it for just over a week. Once again: Life is good.
Going camping this weekend. Whoever's reading this send a prayer heavenwards that it doesn't rain. I need to test run my new swimsuit.
And jo's back. For good! The peasants rejoice.
And, oh yeah, I'm thinking about getting a new Cell Phone. Go me.
MESSAGES:
AMBER: I wuv you! Hope to see you next weekend, I'll talk to you sometime this week to finalize Ren Faire plans.
DAG: I wuv you too! Hope you have a hella good time in Cancun. Take many pictures so I can see! I can't wait to hear all about it!

So it occurs to me that I'm fired. Unemployed. Without a source of income. Penniless. Down and out.
But that's alright. Erg... lemme find those Lyrics...
::Digs through the mountains of clothing on the floor:: Aha! Here we go!
Go Fish. Possibly the best Christian Boy Band ever. Wait, it is the best. Here we go.
ALRIGHT
Don't get down by your circumstance.
Just let it go, now get up and dance!
'Cuz you're alright, you're alright.
See the Sparrow in the air
Not a worry not a care.
That is how I need to be
My Father will take care of me!
See. Just because I don't have a job now, doesn't mean it's the end of the world. God's gonna take care of me because I'm His child. I don't need to worry. He'll provide me with a job, but that doesn't mean that I don't need to do the leg work. I just gotta trust that God's gonna give me the job that's right for me.
Now that I have that figured out, I really need to get over getting canned. I mean, there's no reason for me getting fired. For a year and a half I stuck with that company. Through five managers I was there to show them and new employees where stuff was in the store. The drawer was never short, or if it was it was because of something before I got there. If the till was a penny short I threw in a penny. I never stole from the company, if I was late I called to say I was gonna be late, and I was rarely late. I didn't break rules, only slightly bent a few once or twice.
But who didn't?
So basically, I got fired because Alicia, the hoity-toity new Area-Manager, is on a power trip. Big time.
Life's a bitch, isn't she?
Meanwhile, I do have an interview with DialAmerica next week. Whee! Yay! Happiness. I hope I get the job. Cuz I need a job...

I cut my hair. Super short. Ok, my hair has been long since like the 8th grade. Most of my friends that I have now have never known me with short hair. It's always been at the shortest, to my shoulders. I am here to tell you now, it's short. We're talking above my ears spike it in the back uber cute short.
It feels weird.
But I like it!
Short.

Ok, So, after a horrid week of job hunting (and no bites) I went to the Zoo with Amber and her boyfriend on friday. Boy, was that a trip. Humping! Humping everywhere! Yes, it is spring at the zoo. We saw (and quickly turned our heads) lizards, snakes, cats, and a fish that was trying to get some. All in all, wasn't a day to bring the kids to the zoo.
In other news: Spent the weekend with Amber, used a whole tank of gas driving around the southwestern region of my state, went to Amber's boyfriend's grad party, stayed the night, was bloody exhausted, went to church in the morning, ate lunch and then went home. A fullfilling weekend, considering I spent it with my best friend.
And today, I call Waldenbooks to see if they've taken a gander at my resume.
Happily, Shawn got a job, so we're not both completely jobless. Woohoo!

I was fired...
There's really not much to say after that statement, is there? If you tell that to people they're either going to stand there dumbly or say something like "I'm sorry" because they don't know what to say. I mean, what do you say to someone when they get fired?
I mean, I was fired and I still don't know what to say about it.
Sidenote: I was fired from Things Remembered. They were looking for a reason. How do I know this? The "reason" they gave for firing me was extremely weak. We're talking I know babies that are stronger than this argument to get me fired. Oi. Oh well... I was going to quit anyway.
But quitting is a lot different than getting fired, isn't it? ::sigh::

The Cheshire Cat
You are one sick bastard when you want to be. You
are as two sided as a coin. On one hand, you
are intelligent, adventurous, generous and
creative. On the other hand, you can be
manipulative. You know what you want and
you'll do what it takes to get it.

At long last I am leaving Things Remembered. I've been there for nearly two years and finally figured out IT AIN'T WORTH A DAMN THING!
Let me elborate. You see, TR was the first job that I actually liked enough to hold onto for a decent amount of time. I've been with the company through numerous managers, two Christmases full of bitchy customers, and way more than I care to think about. Sadly, my time with them has come to an almost violent end. After many lies and half-truths aimed at tarnishing my good name with the company and a recent banning from the offsite for something I did not do, I'd rather leave the company with my good name still intact than be forced to leave at some later date with my standing with the company blackened.
Needless to say, this is rather emotional for me. I love TR. It was the first job I'd had that I'd felt was worth keeping through a myriad of events that had happened. I wish this weren't happening, but it is. I can't do anything about it but what I am doing: Be mature and take myself away with my dignity.
Thus, two weeks from today will be my final day at Things Remembered. I will not look back, nor regret what I have to do for the sake of the store and my professional honor.
That doesn't make it any easier.

Your ideal mate is Nightcrawler. His appearance
may be a bit off-putting, but his heart and
personality more than make up for it. He is
shy and isn't very sociable and comes off as a
bit of a loner (but you'll fix that). He is
also devoted and strong, and he always seems to
just *pop* up whenever you need him the most. :

FINALS ARE OVER! And the peasants rejoice.
Actually, I still have one to go, but meh. One left in four that I had to take? Gimme a break. They're over.
I'm 19 now! Fear me, I am old! My friend Jenny-Bean got me my tragus pierced for my BDay. It hurt like a bitch, but sooooo worth it. I know, I'm weird. Shut up.
I'm hoping to go spend BDay money today. I got $30 gift certificate to the mall, and $25 from my grandparents and another $25 from my aunt and uncle in colorado. Speaking of whom, next time she's online, IM. (I don't have her email addy)
It's summer now, and I dunno what I'm gonna do with all my free time. I know I'm working two jobs, but those are both more in the evenings than mornings, and I get off at 8 or 9. Doode, I'm FREE!!!!!! I'm Djinn! Oh, wait... that's Kazamm. (Yes, just watched that on Disney last night, fun movie, but not gonna go into the list of faves. I'll just watch it and make fun of it, lol)
Ok, I'm gonna go take some quizzies, shower, and call Candyman and see if he wants to go shopping with me. I might call Seashell too (yes, I'm doing the nickname thing again) and see if she wants to go, but she might be working.
Ciao!

I Archived! Yay for me!
Here is what is currently going on in my life: A few more friends are engaged (and again I am a bridesmaid for one of them. YAY! I am going to have a legion of Bridesmaid dresses by the time I am 23) I got the job at Pizza Hut (start today, whee for me!) and I wanna get another piercing.
Like that's a surprise. Bah. Oh, so, anyway. My birthday is in like a week and a half and I'm hesitant to ask for anything because of some stuff that's going on in my family. I've got friends that are going to be giving me stuff (mostly of the body modification sort. Viva la piercings and tattoos) That's enough for me. I think. Gaw! I hate feeling this selfish, but it's my birthday, dammit! ::sigh:: Oh well. It's not like it's an important birthday like my 18th or 21st. It's just my 19th. I should probably just forget about it. Really. It's not that big of a deal.
Did I just try to talk myself out of having a birthday? Oi.
