If someone would hire me that would be great. I’m lazy, I admit it. When I finished college I swore that I wouldn’t be like other people that I know … sitting around, not really looking for a job. But … I did. Just for a while. I just loved being lazy. I loved having no responsibilities other than working at the easiest job in the world. Big changes didn’t sound like something that was right up my alley. My only real worry is money. What am I going to do when I run out of it? I’m not greedy, really. I don’t base happiness on how much money is to be made, and how much of it I can hoard away in my bank account. But living paycheck to paycheck isn’t my idea of happiness either. In fact, when I do have money I will probably find a way to make more. I was educated on just how to do that, and it was all I studied. Make money grow. Finance should be renamed “Money can grow on trees”, you just have to plant them the right way! Hahahaha! Ok, I know … I’m lame. What are you going to do about it?

Job prospects as of now are … who knows. Somebody called me today about a job, but my phone was mysteriously not ringing again. Just like it does just about every time somebody important calls me.

*Note to self* When you find a new job, the first thing you are going to do is:
1. Buy large couldron
2. Buy a newspaper and some gasoline
3. Put newspaper in couldron
4. dump gasoline in couldron
5. Put phone in couldron
6. Throw lit match into couldron
7. Run away fast.

Grrr. Goddamn phone.

XYZ also called me today. There is another position opening and I’m already up for the “second interview”, since I have already been there for interviews. I’m still hanging onto a tiny sliver of hope that someone there wants to hire me. Mostly because, location-wise … its my dream job. 5-minute walk to work, oh yes. 1-hour lunch break so I can come home and nap, oh yes. Money, oh yes. See … money was last on my list. Tomorrow morning, 10am. Wish me luck. I’ve been told that the guy interviewing me asks bizarre questions, so if anyone has any bizarre interview experiences, I’m up for some advice. I’ve had my share of bizarre questions too, but more feedback is always appreciated.

I am a reject of the modern world. Oh well, life goes on. I had an interview the other day. I was rejected. THE END.

I know I said I should just stop trying to design a webpage when I suck at it, but I gave it a go anyways. It is still under construction, so don’t click on anything because nothing works right now. My apartment is suffering from a case of clutter and mess, so I have to go and clean now.

I will recap the latest happenings in my life, but it isn’t much, seriously. My birthday was great and I got lots of stuff, mostly money. I had to work on my birthday but that was ok because everyone bought me lottery tickets and my boss gave me some loot. I also got a surprise cupcake party at at work, with candles too! It was nice.

I always have problems with my cable bill, I don’t know why. Between my stupidity and the cable company’s stupidity, nothing is ever right. Last time I had cable, they sent me this notice one day that said I hadn’t paid my bill in like 4 months and when I called they told me that my cable was being shut off or something. Except I did pay the bill every single time. Then I had to fax stuff to them to prove it. It was because I payed with bill-pay through PayPal, and they just forgot to record my payments or something. Oh well, I ended up getting a month of cable for free out of it.
So, I just moved here and got cable. I had paid for the first month of cable over the phone before they came and set it up. My first bill was due on July 7th. Well, stupid me went online to comcasts online paying place and paid the bill with my online account. When I signed in it said that my statement would be available after I made my first payment, so I wasn’t too concerned. But today I got a shut-off notice in the mail, and man was I pissed. So I went to my online account and was like “Yeah I paid”, but my statement still wasn’t there. Then suddenly a light bulb turned on inside of my stupid brain. OH! I paid a non-existent bill. I called Comcast and my worst fears were reaffirmed. Anyways, when I paid the bill and it posted to my old account which is closed. But it gets a little trickier. My old account is closed, but the phone number on it, which is probably still Julie’s wants to post to somewhere on Bigelow Blvd. Help!!! So the money is just hanging out in space. GRRR. It isn’t that hard to fix, but she told me the accounting department will probably get mad and not understand. Oh well, it is my fault. I was the stupid one this time. I shouldn’t have assumed that if I just went online and paid my bill, that they would magically figure out where it was supposed to go. It is ok when I cause my own aggravation and make someone else deal with it … but if it is the other way around, well then you are a fat whore and I want to see your fat ass run over by a truck. Ha!

Mmmm … Todd picked me up from work tonight with a warm cup of tasty cappuccino waiting for me in his cup holder. Not the best thing to drink at midnight but caffeine doesn’t have any effect on me anymore. It is like being addicted to pain-killers or something because when I have it I function normally, but without it I get severely crabby. I’m not addicted to pain-killers though so don’t worry.
I hate my job. I have decided that August 8th will be my last day of work ever. If I don’t find a new job by then, I will just live off of crumbs and garbage until I find one. August 8th is the first day of my two week vacation from work, and I have no intentions of going back afterwards. Even if I don’t find a cool job, if I can find another one that pays the same as the one I have now, I will take it. That shouldn’t be too hard though since I don’t make any money there anyways. Even if I got a job that paid minimum wage and gave me 40 hours a week, I would probably make more than I do now … well probably not, but who cares. I need some diversity in my life. Every time I get a raise at work it seems like I get less and less hours. It is a dirty little trick and they seem to think I don’t know what is going on. They give the new people who make like 6.25 all the hours, and they give me none because if I work a lot then they have to pay me more. Done ranting about that now.

Now lets talk about the dirt-bags that live in this city and how they all need to die. In May, my friend at work had her car stolen. She is a single mother of a 5-year old, she works, and she goes to school. Her son’s father is in prison in Kansas and her parents are losers. So she is on her own trying to make a good life for her and her son. When she got her tax return in April she bought a car for $800. It was a nice little dodge neon. She had it for two weeks before it was stolen. She has been in a serious depression for like two months and I think she just feels like there is no hope in the world anymore. She finished school last month but needed an internship in order to graduate. The school that she goes to is supposed to guarantee her one, but they didn’t. And I know she put effort into it too. However, sometimes when you have a lot of responsibilities its hard to find enough time in the day. Well, today the police found her car. Today a woman came into work and they got to talking and the woman said she might be able to help her out with an internship. Two hours later the woman called back and said she had it if she wanted it. Today she got a check in the mail from her school, a big refund she wasn’t expecting. Her car is ok, but the tires are flattened. But now she can get new tires, and she has a car, a job, she is going to graduate … and it all happened in one day. This gives me hope, and keeps me believing, that even when the going gets tough, just have faith that everything will turn out ok.

Goodnight Everyone, smile

I need to go to bed now. I was having too much fun redesigning though. Check out the cool cat girl at the bottom. I stole the picture from some website. Oops, don’t eat me please. Anyways, I still need to finish up a bit, but this is basically going to be my new design. Woohoo, I redesigned in less than 4 hours! Must sleep now. Bye!

I’m sure you were finally getting sick of my lavender layout and the annoyingly cute kitten on this site. I sure was. So my page is offically getting a makeover, but until I figure out what I’m going to do you are going to have to put up with the generic blog layout here. Thanks. Sorry this wasn’t really an update. I’m busy and tired. Bye!

I’m about to start rebounding and I can’t wait. I put my trampoline together last night and bounced on it a few times, but I was really tired so I chose not to really give it a go. I do not have an exercise video, but I think I can just hop around on it for a while. I just finished the Cindy Crawford workout … its the first time I put it in my VCR since that last horrible episode which left me crippled and unable to control my leg functions for about 4 days. I don’t feel like I over-exerted myself this time, so last time must have paid off! However, this time I used real free-weights instead of soup cans. The other day I filled an empty ketchup bottle up with cat-litter. Hey, I thought cat litter was heavy. They say that you can fill jugs up with sand if you don’t have weights, right? So what is the difference between cat-litter and sand? Ketchup bottles = milk jugs. Well, it really didn’t feel any heavier than my cans of corn. I got some 5 lb weights at Wal Mart last night, and it was really hard in the workout. I hope my arms don’t turn to jelly now. I have other things to talk about too, but I just want to go hop around for a while. Yay!!!!
