I didn't really think not going home for Thanksgiving would affect me but the moment I turned on the parade I began crying (=_=) If I didn't have these prior commitments with Will's family I'd be driving home now on impulse. I had to work this morning from 7am to 10am, and that wasn't terrible, but maybe I'm just cranky and tired and I miss my mom ( Read more... )

Really, really crappy day at work. I don't want to go into details but it really threw me off my game, and I have to go through the same bullshit tomorrow. (I normally don't work Sundays.) I'm just happy I have awesome coworkers ( Read more... )

Scratch that, my game's glitching so much that it's unplayable unless I re-install (I'm assuming that last part). I have gotten so far in the four days I have owned this game. Both of my Sims maxed out their careers within two days (realtime, not Sim time) and I don't even want to think about losing the beautiful house Will built. It was the ( Read more... )

Gonna try to type this up as fast as I can before I have to go to work. I've been pushing my alarm back further and further lately even though I tend to work at 11am everyday! I work at 8am on Saturdays though, and normally I have my alarm at :00. Eventually that got pushed back to :15, and :20, and now it's at :30 and I don't even shower before I ( Read more... )

Soooo when you get bored in the suburbs, what else is there but shopping? (don't retort that please. lol)

I did pretty damn well this time around so I wanna list it~
( mostly just beauty products )

You guys know I work at a bagel place, right? Well, here it is ( Read more... )

My toenail is legit starting to peel off from the bottom up. I'm really afraid to walk to work today (>________________<)

I have money, actual earned money for the first time since I got back to the States. Turns out I'm making the same rate I did before I left for Japan, which is even better because I've heard new hires get 50c less, and I wasn't sure how the company was going to deal with my rehiring. I've been living off tip money for the past two weeks since I ( Read more... )

I'm back in Iowa City and slowly getting into the groove of my new American life. I got off to a rocky start financially but things seem to be looking up now. I'm going back to my old job on Wednesday and might even already be getting a promotion if I choose to accept it. I need to ask around to see if the added responsibilities is worth the pay ( Read more... )

Another lovely, lazy afternoon in the apartment in Iowa. I got here Sunday evening and have been catching up with friends one by one. Yesterday I stopped in at my old job to see friends, and today I stopped in again to see the new managers. Seems I'm going to get my job back :D It'll be nice to have an income again while I look for a better-paying ( Read more... )
