I've been asked to update in the ol' lj. My bro is home from Texas and working on fixing my computer that was seriously "f"ed up, so...I figured I'd start since soon I will have full time internet access and can start updating this thing on a regular basis again ( Read more... )

I've been running with Jon lately. He wants to be a cop and he needs to bulk up for the physical part of his interview so he asked me to run with him and I said yes...because I live in Crazytown where I think I can run. I'm huffing and puffing while he is barely breaking a sweat so luckily I convinced him to come to Chatam Hills and run on the ( Read more... )

Just thought I'd update while I had the chance. Nothing too thrilling is going on in my life, but all in all I can't complain. Things at Target are going great. I really like the people I work with and Target has plenty of opportunity to move up (believe it or not). I was hired on as a cashier, but they got me doing a little bit of everything. That ( Read more... )

So I just re read my previous entry and realized I said I was going to the movies with "my" Michelle and Derek. That's funny. That was a total typo. Of course they aren't "mine" that's stupid and immature. But, apparently someone has already seen it and made a deal of it but this is just to clarify that that was a total typing mistake. That's what ( Read more... )

So today is the big day! Bethany and I are going to see Talor Hicks...and the rest of the American Idol finalist, but most importantly Taylor...in St. Louis at the Saavis Center! Whoo! Go Soul Patrol! We got our shirts made, which look awesome by they way. Bethany printed off some iron on thingys off the web and we ironed them on to shirts. We are ( Read more... )

Yesterday Jon called me and told me he passed the physical test that you have to pass if you want to become a cop. I told him I was proud of him and yadda, yadda, yadda. I am proud and happy for him because he really wants to be a cop and now he's one step closer. He then called me later on that night and invited me to go out with him. He wanted to ( Read more... )

I've really been learning a lot of stuff up at the county. It's a ton of stuff...kind of overwhelming. Yesterday got kind of busy and I was answering phones while letting people in and out, meanwhile Amber (my training officer) was taking 911 calls. I was thinking...do they seriously expect me to handle all this all at the same time all by myself ( Read more... )

So ya know how I said I got that job at AppleBees? Well, most of you know by now that I upgraded and got a much better paying job working for the Morgan County Sheriff being a dispatcher. It's an interesting job. There's a crapload to learn, but the people who work there seem to be pretty cool for the most part. I thought I had interesting stories ( Read more... )

I gots a job! I gots a job! Granted, it's not the greatest of jobs, but starting Tuesday I will be a waitress for AppleBees. Tuesday is orientation for an hour and a half and then it's four days of training and then I'm all set. I know waitresses get a crappy wage but...I'm friendly and semi-cute, so I think I could do well with tips. I give it a ( Read more... )

Jason has been coming to visit me every so often. He's actually been a good friend to me while I've been losing my mind being all jobless. He picked me up the other day and we drove to Bloomington to meet up with Jeremy. We stopped by and said hello to Mike while he was "so incredibly busy" working for U.S. Cellular. We got a whole bunch of free ( Read more... )
