Gay Day at the Jeans Outlet
New boy at work today. He’s entertaining. Reminds me a lot of the group of dejected, rejected misfits I was part of in high school. I wonder what happened to any of them. He’s part of the same live-in therapy/G.E.D program that one of those high school friends went to a few years ago. Like them, he’s very smart. Like them, he doesn’t *apply himself ( Read more... ) -

When you say "Children," do you mean the customers, or...?
As some of you may know, I was less than impressed when I interviewed for this per diem cashier job at the mall. The manager, we’ll call her Mrs. Mugly, asked me about three vague questions (“how do you handle pressure?”) and let me get about four words in (“well, I’ve worked in a lot of fast-paced environments so--”) before moving ( Read more... ) -
Applications: 24. Jobs: 3.5, potentially 4.5. Hours per week: 20. TOTAL.
I cried at Miss Jacky the other night about my life and money and yadda yadda yadda. She picked up the phone and got me a job. It really did work just like that. I now work four hours a week in Westbrook and am working towards getting my denim certification. Well, maybe now I’ll inherently adopt a sense of fashion.
The store is great ( Read more... ) -
Babysitting the Prom
I’m sitting in a comfy lounge chair by a glass table in my Mom’s backyard, which smells like freshly mowed grass-my favorite. I’ve got an umbrella and full moon overhead, flamingo and palm tree lights nearby, the neighbor’s wedding DJ sounds for company, and a bowl of Doritos and an ice-cold Mountain Dew at hand. I am feeling MUCH better.
I’m in ( Read more... ) -
Summer Goals 2009 (In no particular order)
1. GET A REAL JOB. Put my YEARS of leadership training and my half a college degree to work and get an actual job that pays actual money and has actual benefits and allows me to have an actual self esteem while earning a living. In dream-land, I would: have a column at a paper, line-edit for a magazine or publishing house, line-edit the ( Read more... ) -

The Media Board is Stupid.
Marissa came to Media Board. Sat there for an hour. Sue refused to let her speak. When Lillian got up to defend her, she refused to let Lillian speak, even though she’s Off-Center’s representative, because she wasn’t sitting at the table that was full when she got there. I kid you not. Anyway, someone asked Marissa if she’d rather talk for five ( Read more... ) -
To be Continued. Or Not. Depends How the Night Goes!
So, sometimes, I get really angry, depressed, upset, or otherwise perturbed at the fact I run two clubs that frequently like to explode, melt, disassemble, and then rearrange and reform into something beautiful and weird and exciting. I especially get aggravated during one of these explody-melty periods. Then I rant for hours on lined paper in my ( Read more... )
