Well well well..Wow... October 6th was the last time I wrote in here. =/ what the hell. Sure is a long ass time. Ive been wanting to write, but I always feel so guilty writing and then not responding to journals. =[ It's not like me to skip journals for this long or at all, actually. Blah. I sure do misss you all though and I do apologize for the lack of being around. I'm still tickled that some of you send me notes looking for me to make sure I'm still alive. teehee. Makes me smile. =] Someone out there cares. bwahaha. But, I just wanted to make a quick entry. I have responded to some journals. Though, I know I'm still very behind on others. I'm working on it though. Well.... I am still currently working two jobs. I've been at Jewel less and less and am very happy it's that way actually. Aha. I probably really piss my manger off because I kind of pick and choose my days and don't go to work on half of the days I'm scheduled for. But, oh well. Guess that could mean less money for me, but honestly... I think I still make more at the party store in two weeks than I do at Jewel with two weeks pay put together - so really... where would you go, eh? But, whateva! I dont see that job getting any better so I'm still working on replacing it with another job and/or quitting. I'm just hanging onto it as my backup, honestly. I dont think Im having any lucky/getting anywhere with switching departments either. That whole process is confusing and I just dont know. I think I've given up on that idea already though... at least for Jewel. The party store job is going well though. I actually do enjoy myself there and most times.. the time sure does fly. And I like a job like that - where I enjoy myself and get paid to and the work isn't too difficult or strenuous at all. It's nice. And most of the people there I really enjoy being around. I also don't get hit on anymore and I really enjoy. Annnd another plus is that there's a lot of spanish spoken there and being around it helps jog my memory and remember more and feel more comfortable with it. I honestly missed being in my old neighborhood because out here no one speaks Spanish. And, its kinda funny when people are surprised that I can understand Spanish. Steph and I took about the same 2 years of spanish, but she knows like... 3 words, which i think is sad. lol. cause you learn a whole lot more than 3 words in 2 years. but, oh well. Im hoping it helps me become more fluent though. The temporary position is ending soon though -- this Saturday actually. I dont know when I will officially be *hired* as a regular, but Steph and Cheryl have both already told me it was for sure. Just.. the sucky part is that I wont have very many hours there either. =[ So, I'll prob still need two jobs anyways. But, there's no way in hell I'm gonna be able to juggle three. So.. somethings gotta give. Which... brings me to my next point that I had an interview at Walmart the other day. The lady was crazy.. and honestly it was the most awkward interview I've ever had. Doesn't make sense to me, and then at the end of it she turns around and says I'm not enthusiastic??? Uhh.. okay? I'm gonna be excited to be a cashier? what?!?! lol. It was just so weird cause she didnt really ask me about myself, what I'm doing, about my TWO jobs.. er anything and she seemed like she didnt know what to say half the time anyways. So, I dont know. One of our friends, Lynsey, has been helping my sister and I get interviews there and trying to push us to the top. So.. so far we've both had interviews and we both should be getting a second interview. Just waiting for that call... again. So, we shall see. Apparently... Jewel is their biggest competitor???? So... she said I'd have to quit there. I dont know. But, we'll see. The shitty part is that it's only supposed to be a seasonal position there also, so I still want to keep another job anyways for security cause at least it'd be SOMETHING rather than.... nothing. Gahh. We'll see. The pups are doing well. I'm sure there are tons of pictures I could have been sharing, or I still could share with you all. hehe. We're now down to... four puppy dogs. Humph. All my favorites left first - it's pretty depressing and most of them all got renamed also. haha. Seven is now nutmeg. Flash's name may be charlie brown or maybe just charlie. idk. which is actually kind of funny because I sometimes I call Vince charlie for fun. and the neat part is that he answers very well to both names. =] Then Star's name is hershey. pooo. So, now we have Violet, Joey, Delilah, and Minnie left. Although... I'm hearing that Minnie and Joey are going to possibly leave soon also. We've lowered the price by a good 200 bucks or so.. which is kinda crappy. but, at least they're getting good homes and we're still getting something for them. They went to the vet today actuallly to get their second shots. Do believe they're doing well though. I'm barely keeping up with college. Aha. I dont even know if I want to keep going or not. Moreso.. I dont even know why I waste time going if Idk what I want to do anymore. I kind of want to take some office type classes. Ehhh. Idk. I dont know anymore, but I cant wait to get into something new anyways. Uhm... what else is there? The boy and I are doing okay. cant really complain too much there. I learn everyday that I have an outstanding memory sometimes. =P I remember a whole lot of faces from years ago that Im surprised I even remember. The other day the D.A.R.E. officer Steph and I had in grade school came in the store and I told her I remembered her and that was like... a good... 10 or more years ago. hah. Steph had no idea who she was. lol. kinda funny. and she was amazed I even remembered her. =P ohh well. That is life. think Im done. =/ my fingers hurt. It's all just too muchTurns out Thursday was dooms day, and he did end up getting fired from his job. I think he already knew it was coming though. I kind of thought it too, but I was hoping they would just do a slap on the wrist kinda thing. =/ But, apparently not. So that really sucks. heh. We're back at square one again. Rather, he is.. but it still sucks and affects me just as well. I suppose the nice thing is that he's been looking a lot more, even when he had his job. We're just hoping something pulls through in the very near future. I'd gladly give him one of my jobs if I could though. =] And speaking of which, I can't wait for this month to be over already! I told this to my mother and she said, "well it just started." But, I'm more excited for it to be over with. Because that leads to my doom of whether or not I stay at the party store. Which, I think I'm pretty much set for staying there.. unless they don't want to dish out more money. But, I think it has the potential to work... especially if Juan wants to move back down to part-time working like two or so days a week. They'd still need someone to fill positions. I know Steph knows that I'm serious, but Cheryl won't tell her for sure if they're keeping me or not so that's kinda cruddy. But, if they do I'm shooting for full-time and that means I'm probably going to get away from Jewel. Actually, it wouldn't be so bad there IF I was getting more hours and IF I was getting paid a good chunk of money for the work I'm doing. But, quite frankly.. I don't believe that a 35 dollar check is worth what I do there or the gas to get there as well. Granted, it's only like 10-15 mins from my house so it's not really THAT far. But, there's a lot that has to be done and I bust my ass in there for a check that is always less than 70 dollars. Soo... I dont know. Maybe if it was in a different department and I was actually enjoying it then I would consider sucking it up and say money is money, but I dont really like it. I decided I was going to apply to other Jewels in the area for the bakery department and see if I can score anything.. although, the online application is really lame cause it just assumes that you got fired, quit, or laid off and doesnt have any options that you're still employed..or it was seasonal or whatever and thats messed up. So, I dont really know how well thats going to work out with my chances. But, I'd love to play in the bakery. Sadly, there isn't very many out here besides the ones inside of grocery stores. =[ gahh. I had an interview at Best Buy the other day. Did I mention that already? I dont think I did so well actually. but, maybe miracles can happen. who knows. I'd rather work at McDonalds than at this Jewel... I'm almost tempted to apply there, instead. Sometimes I forget that I'm still in school. I've been neglecting my school work, doing things at the last minute. I used to enjoy this, but not so much anymore. =/ Maybe its because the two jobs are draining and I just debate what I can get done in my spare time before I have to go to work. Bleh. It's all work and no play, and I need my play damnit! It's depressing though. It makes me feel like I need to quit school. I kind of want to just stop going until I pay off both of my loans and then start over, or take less classes so there's not much to pay for. I dont want to put myself in debt already, I'm scared of that. hah. ii dont knoww. Im not excited about life anymore right now. =/ Do you happen to have anything to make my mood mellow?On Monday, Mike got suspended from his job because one of the managers caught him sleeping in the booth. The really dumb part is that he has Tuesday and Wednesday off and the guy suspended him for both of those days that he's NOT even working, so it's not like he's losing money or anything. And he told him when he comes back into work on Thursday they'll decide what to do about it then. It's kind of dumb to suspend someone on their days off, so it's not even really a punishment. The only thing he's really losing is like 4 hours of pay. *shrugs* We're hoping he doesn't lose his job over this. I guess they could really fire him for this, but I would think he'd at least just get written up a few times first or something before they got that serious. But, I suppose we'll be finding out on Thursday. While I was working at Jewel the other night this lady, Nancy, that I used to work with at Walgreens spotted me. I always thought about how incredibly awkward it would probably be to run into someone from there and how I would react. Though, I always expected it to be someone I was closer with rather than the lady that it was. But, it's all good. I was very shocked at first and almost speechless. I felt like such a tool cause I didn't know what to say and whatever, but then I got a lot more comfortable and just talked like everything was normal. She asked me everything that happened and expressed her sadness and madness to me about the whole situation. I guess she said she was bugging Andy about it for the longest time about how unfair everything was and why he would let me go, but of course that didn't get very far. She said that he just kept saying he couldn't talk about it and that was that. I miss them all very much, actually. And, I kind of want to stop back in there one day to see all of them but I fear that it may be too confrontational for me and if anyone knows me they know that I'm not always good with that stuff.. only if I'm really really really pissed off and need answers otherwise I'm pretty much a push over, sadly enough. But, she said that she was upset for quite some time and she knows the kind of lady that Ursula was and lots of people don't like her and she wishes there was something she or someone else could do for me. Which, is really nice of her actually. She's a really sweet lady. She wanted me to call her for some reason. I still haven't yet, mostly because I'm not really sure what I'd have to say to her besides the same story over and over again. =/ But, I guess its very refreshing to know that most everyone there really did like me and they do miss me. The sad part is just that I got caught up with the wrong person at the wrong place and time.. and I guess that's life. Probably if Jim wasn't the store manager I could possibly get my job back, but since that's the case and he doesn't care about shit or his employees that will never happen. Thus, I'm still debating about stopping in there or not. If I did, it would def be a time when Jim wasn't there. Maybe I'll talk to Nancy about it sometime. Buuuut I gotta admit, I'm still not a fan of either of these jobs. Im actually really quite excited to leave Jewel. I dont think I would mind it so much if I didnt have to close everytime I worked though. I much rather like working a random day shift or close to opening shift then closing all the time. I hate all the cleaning. Bleh. I guess... a nicer thought is that over the weekend I just have to work at Jewel and not BOTH places on Saturday like I was doing. ahaa. I'm still not making shit for money, but I guess every little bit counts at this point. I've mostly been buying my xmas gifts already. I feel horrible for shopping this early, but I think Im honestly worried about losing one of these jobs or both or just not having enough to give the gifts I'd like to. I have some items that should be making their way to me soon. =] And then... its time to think of what else I'm going to get. hah. But, I dont really favor the party store either. I'd say its more exciting than Jewel.... but.. it actually has a lot of boring parts to it as well and I had blowing up balloons and I suck at arranging them and tying them. Ugh. I just want to find a good full-time job and be done with this job searching. Blah. Too bad this doesn't get any easier. I did end up finishing my paper within no time! I was liking online courses because they were pretty slow paced, but now I find that Im bitching because they're going too slow. In health... I'm waiting for the test to open up. Ive done all the work for all the chapters already and just need to be tested on it and then start the next set. In English... we get like at least a week or so to complete little things.. so Im just waiting for time to go by and before I know it something is due. We have like a week to read four other people's papers and comment on it and then submit a final draft. See? Makes me think that actually going to the class would be dumb and pointless cause not much is really happening now or there'd be more work and I'm not down with that. haha. I havent done anything about my telecourse, which I should prob consider doing so. And my other class still hasn't started yet. So.. Im just patiently waiting for something exciting to come along. =/ ii dont know. I got nothing else, really. Just felt like sharing all of that. I dont think we've had anyone else inquire about the puppies recently and that's...... really horrible. I know they're prob close to eat whole food soon, so they should be getting ready to go to their new homes pronto after their first set of shots. I think at least seven is going home for sure, but we're still not sure about the first family that came to see the pups. arg. I do have about three favorites now. I'm supppper tiredddddd and I feel so lame cause its not even 12 yet. blahhh. Kali -- I am actually in my second year of college. Well, I don't even feel right saying that cause it just sounds funny. I started the semester late (just this past spring) and then I took summer courses and now I'm into the new semester. So, I call it my second year -- but ehh. I just take it semester at a time and go with it. Weird.I have this really odd feeling that I'm going to be running into him soon. =/ I'm not sure why. It's almost as if I want to see him or I'm just anticipating it happening. My heart still yearns for that smell, that embrace, that hug, that sensual kiss, and that body. I can't help these thoughts, it seems. It all just happens so fast sometimes. Even when his name is mentioned I could just melt. I wonder if this really means something? I wonder if he's still dreaming about me, like I am dreaming about him? I wish there was some way to know. I wish there was some way to see into the future; it would make decision making a lot easier let me tell yah. I've had another certain person on my mind lately. I honestly couldnt' say why besides his name is everywhere. =/ I wonder how he is. I wonder where he is. I wonder what his character has come to be now. =/ I kind of miss him. Here I am againI'm somewhat surprised to say that I really haven't had time to be on here at all. But, I've been neglecting other things as well. And by that I mean school. Which is probably really bad. I'm almost starting to think I should just stop going because it seems so pointless. =/ But, I've barely been finding the time to do my homework. But, nothing is really happening so I just wait for the days to go by and before I know it - there's an assignment due in like two days and that happens to be the case right now.. except..... this rough draft paper is due tomorrow. Aha! And, I just started writing it last night. Im procrastinating right now. I'm almost finished with it, but I dont feel all that confident about it. Apparently... my half ass outline was good though. That was surprising. oh well. I guess I just wanted to stop in and apologize for disappearing on some of you. I know Ive been sucking at responding lately. =[ poop. The jobs are crazy. I'm not really too thrilled about either one. though, its sad cause I feel like I dont have the time to look any more either. So, I'm still kind of stuck. Hopefully that changes soon though. oh well. I suppose Im going to get back to my paper now. Ive got three and a half hours before I gotta go to work. Im hoping to get it done before then. =X |

I dunno, falling asleep on the job is no joke. One of my coworkers got fired for the same offense. I wouldn't be surprised if they punished him more harshly. Although the suspension on his day off is retarded, so maybe not. Thats kind of awkward, seeing your ex-coworker. At least she was really nice and showed that people missed you there. That was sweet. Maybe you could call her and ask when that manager won't be there so you can go visit. I know what you mean about the job search. You are crazy woman! Two jobs AND school. I found it hard to get motivated for online classes. Bleh. How many dogs do you have in the house again? Go to sleep silly! Its ok to go to bed early. You're not lame! And 12 isn't early anyway!
Well first of all no worries about not getting to journals. I am just as guilty. I know about the craziness about running into people you used to work with. I hope all is going well.
