Temp agency is pulling me out of boring temp job to put me into a different temp job that pays more.  I'm not sure if I'm scared or excited, because I have to interview for the job they want to put me in, and they're sending two other candidates to interview, as well.  What the heck?  So, what happens if I don't get it?  "Don't worry," says the ( Read more... )

I realised something, as we discussed birthday plans for Betsy, Vicky, and I on Wednesday.  Yes, I'm excited about turning 25.  I'm actually very excited, even though all my friends just grumble that it puts me "that much closer to 30."  But the girls?  Betsy's going to be 17, and Vicky's going to be 14.  And that's just mother fucking weird!  As ( Read more... )

One of the tenants of the building I work in noticed my haircut.  She told me it looked beautiful, and she noticed it right away!  It made me happy, it was worth it to get it cut (it really does look so much healthier now).  It's funny, though.  It's such a frivolous thing, and I probably should have thrown the money I spent on getting a haircut at ( Read more... )

I have a fabulous new haircut, and it was cheep!  Seriously, services that would have cost me something like $80 only cost me $25.  I got a deep conditioning treatment, a killer cut, and a fantastic blowout at the Aveda salon in the mall.  They charged me almost nothing. . .It looks much healthier without the nasty dead ends, and, after I told the ( Read more... )

The company I'm currently temping for is having their Thanksgiving luncheon today.  I'm supposed to go up in a few minutes and eat, but I really don't want to go.  I don't know if it's just me being anti-social, or if it's just me knowing I don't belong here, and not wanting to get to know anyone because I simply don't care.  There are people who ( Read more... )

Dear Tucker kitty,

I gather that you are unhappy with me.  I am lax about your litter box, scooping it only once a week lately instead of every other day.  I know that you don't like Bailey, you have made that quite clear.  I also understand that you are a needy meow boy in your own way, and while you're more mellow than Bailey, you're needy in a ( Read more... )

Things are starting to look up a little bit.  Jason promised me he'd send me money out of the trust fund, after lecturing me for 45 minutes about school and how I talked about wanting to put that money aside to save it for school (which isn't true, that's what they wanted) but after that, simply asked me how much I needed.  He was supposed to go to ( Read more... )

I've found a channel that shows Ren and Stimpy reruns every night, several times a night.  I've been catching up on the episodes, since I don't think I've seen an episode of Ren and Stimpy since I was about 13.  I'd forgotten how much I loved them.  I had a copy of the soundtrack, and I'd religiously watch Nickelodeon on Saturday nights (and catch ( Read more... )

So, in the midst of all of my worries, something really rather random dawned on me today.  I missed last night's episode of Rome, which I can watch On Demand now that I have the money to pay my cable bill, at least (someone kind at ConEd extended my disconnect till Wednesday, giving me a little more time to beg money out of my trust fund), but it's ( Read more... )

I can't sleep.  I'm too worried.  I haven't seen my roommate in days, and he hasn't left me money for bills, so I'm not sure I have anything other than the $3 that Ellie sent me home with last night.  I've packed an overnight bag, so I can just snatch it up in the event that social services refuses to help me (which is likely, social services has ( Read more... )
